                                       -48-

          Such Term Loans (i) shall be made on the Closing Date, (ii) may at the
option of the Borrower be incurred and maintained as, and/or converted into, ABR

each Lender having a Revolving Credit Commitment severally agrees to make a loan
or loans denominated in Dollars (each a "REVOLVING CREDIT LOAN" and,

Credit Loans (A) shall be made at any time and from time to time on and after
the Closing Date and prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date, (B) may, at

otherwise specifically provided herein, consist entirely of Revolving Credit
Loans of the same Type, (C) may be repaid and reborrowed in accordance with the
provisions hereof, (D) shall not, for any such Lender at any time, after giving

thereto and to the application of the proceeds thereof, result at any time in
the aggregate amount of the Lenders' Revolving Credit Exposures at such time
exceeding the Total Revolving Credit Commitment then in effect; PROVIDED that no
Revolving Credit Loans shall be made to Borrower on any day if, after giving
effect thereto and any issuances of Letters of Credit and other borrowings of
Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans on such day, the Intelsat Ltd. Notes
Condition is not satisfied.

          (ii) Each Lender may at its option make any LIBOR Loan by causing any
domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan,
PROVIDED that (A) any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of
the Borrower to repay such Loan and (B) in exercising such option, such Lender
shall use its reasonable efforts to minimize any increased costs to the Borrower
resulting therefrom (which obligation of the Lender shall not require it to
take, or refrain from taking, actions that it determines would result in
increased costs for which it will not be compensated hereunder or that it

<PAGE>

after giving effect thereto and to the application of the proceeds thereof,
result at any time in the aggregate amount of the Lenders' Revolving Credit
Exposures at such time exceeding the Total Revolving Credit Commitment then in
effect and (v) may be repaid and reborrowed in accordance with the provisions
hereof; PROVIDED that no Swingline Loans shall be made to the Borrower on any
day if, after giving effect thereto and any issuances of Letters of Credit and
other borrowings of Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans on such day, the
Intelsat Ltd. Notes Condition is not satisfied. On the Swingline Maturity Date,
each outstanding Swingline Loan shall be repaid in full. The Swingline Lender
shall not make any Swingline Loan after receiving a written notice from the
Borrower or any Lender stating that a Default or Event of Default exists and is
continuing until such time as the Swingline Lender shall have received written
notice of (i) rescission of all such notices from the party or parties
originally delivering such notice or (ii) the waiver of such Default or Event of
Default in accordance with the provisions of Section 14.1.

          (d) On any Business Day, the Swingline Lender may, in its sole
discretion, give notice to the Lenders with a Revolving Credit Commitment that
all then-outstanding Swingline Loans shall be funded with a Borrowing of
Revolving Credit Loans, in which case Revolving Credit Loans constituting ABR
Loans (each such Borrowing, a "MANDATORY BORROWING") shall be made on the
immediately succeeding Business Day by all Lenders with a Revolving Credit
Commitment PRO RATA based on each Lender's Revolving Credit Commitment
Percentage, and the proceeds thereof shall be applied directly to the Swingline
Lender to repay the Swingline Lender for such outstanding Swingline Loans. Each
Lender with a Revolving Credit Commitment hereby irrevocably agrees to make such
Revolving Credit Loans upon one Business Day's notice pursuant to each Mandatory
Borrowing in the amount and in the manner specified in the preceding sentence
and on the date specified to it in writing by the Swingline Lender
notwithstanding (i) that the amount of the Mandatory Borrowing may not comply
with the minimum amount for each Borrowing specified in Section 2.2, (ii)
whether any conditions specified in Section 7 are then satisfied, (iii) whether
a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (iv) the date
of such Mandatory Borrowing or (v) any reduction in the Total Commitment after
any such Swingline Loans were made. In the event that, in the sole judgment of
the Swingline Lender, any Mandatory Borrowing cannot for any reason be made on
the date otherwise required above (including as a result of the commencement of
a proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code in respect of the Borrower), each Lender
with a Revolving Credit Commitment hereby agrees that it shall forthwith
purchase from the Swingline Lender (without recourse or warranty) such
participation of the outstanding Swingline Loans as shall be necessary to cause
the Lenders to share in such Swingline Loans ratably based upon their respective
Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages, PROVIDED that all principal and
interest payable on such Swingline Loans shall be for the account of the
Swingline Lender until the date the respective participation is purchased and,
to the extent attributable to the purchased participation, shall be payable to
the Lender purchasing same from and after such date of purchase.

          2.2. MINIMUM AMOUNT OF EACH BORROWING; MAXIMUM NUMBER OF BORROWINGS.
The aggregate principal amount of each Borrowing of Term Loans or Revolving
Credit Loans shall be in a multiple of $1,000,000 and Swingline Loans shall be
in a multiple of $10,000 and, in each case, shall not be less than the Minimum
Borrowing Amount with respect thereto (except that Mandatory Borrowings shall be
made in the amounts required by Section 2.1(d)).

                                       -50-
<PAGE>

More than one Borrowing may be incurred on any date, PROVIDED that at no time
shall there be outstanding more than twelve (12) Borrowings of LIBOR Loans under
this Agreement.

          2.3. NOTICE OF BORROWING.

          (a) The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent at the
Administrative Agent's Office (i) prior to 12:00 Noon (New York City time) at

telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) prior to 10:00 a.m. (New York

Loans to be made, (ii) the date of the Borrowing (which shall be the Closing
Date) and (iii) whether the Term Loans shall consist of ABR Loans and/or LIBOR
Term Loans and, if the Term Loans are to include LIBOR Term Loans, the Interest
Period to be initially applicable thereto. In any such Notice of Borrowing
relating to a Borrowing of Incremental Tranche B Term Loans, Borrower shall also
certify that the Intelsat Ltd. Notes Condition has been satisfied. The
Administrative Agent shall promptly give each Lender written notice (or
telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of the proposed Borrowing of
Term Loans, of such Lender's proportionate share thereof and of the other
matters covered by the related Notice of Borrowing.

          (b) Whenever the Borrower desires to incur Revolving Credit Loans
(other than Mandatory Borrowings or borrowings to repay Unpaid Drawings), it

prior to 12:00 Noon (New York City Time) at least three Business Days' prior

Borrowing of LIBOR Revolving Credit Loans, and (ii) prior to 12:00 Noon (New
York City time) at least one Business Day's prior written notice (or telephonic
notice promptly confirmed in writing) of each Borrowing of ABR Loans. Each such
Notice of Borrowing, except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 2.10,
shall be irrevocable and shall specify (i) the aggregate principal amount of the
Revolving Credit Loans to be made pursuant to such Borrowing, (ii) the date of
Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day) and (iii) whether the respective
Borrowing shall consist of ABR Loans or LIBOR Revolving Credit Loans and, if
LIBOR Revolving Credit Loans, the Interest Period to be initially applicable
thereto. In each such Notice of Borrowing, Borrower shall also certify that the
Intelsat Ltd. Notes Condition has been satisfied. The Administrative Agent shall
promptly give each Lender written notice (or telephonic notice promptly
confirmed in writing) of each proposed Borrowing of Revolving Credit Loans, of
such Lender's proportionate share thereof and of the other matters covered by
the related Notice of Borrowing.

          (c) Whenever the Borrower desires to incur Swingline Loans hereunder,
it shall give the Administrative Agent written notice (or telephonic notice
promptly confirmed in writing) of each Borrowing of Swingline Loans prior to
2:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the date of such Borrowing. Each such notice
shall be irrevocable and shall specify (i) the aggregate principal amount of the
Swingline Loans to be made pursuant to such Borrowing and (ii) the date

                                       -51-
<PAGE>

of Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day). In each such Notice of Borrowing,
Borrower shall also certify that the Intelsat Ltd. Notes Condition has been
satisfied. The Administrative Agent shall promptly give the Swingline Lender
written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of each
proposed Borrowing of Swingline Loans and of the other matters covered by the
related Notice of Borrowing.

          (d) Mandatory Borrowings shall be made upon the notice specified in
Section 2.1(d), with the Borrower irrevocably agreeing, by its incurrence of any
Swingline Loan, to the making of Mandatory Borrowings as set forth in such
Section.

          (e) Borrowings to reimburse Unpaid Drawings shall be made upon the
notice specified in Section 3.4(a).

          (f) Without in any way limiting the obligation of the Borrower to
confirm in writing any notice it may give hereunder by telephone, the
Administrative Agent may act prior to receipt of written confirmation without
liability upon the basis of such telephonic notice believed by the
Administrative Agent in good faith to be from an Authorized Officer of the
Borrower. In each such case, the Borrower hereby waives the right to dispute the
Administrative Agent's record of the terms of any such telephonic notice.

          2.4. DISBURSEMENT OF FUNDS.

          (a) No later than 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the date
specified in each Notice of Borrowing (including Mandatory Borrowings), each
Lender will make available its PRO RATA portion, if any, of each Borrowing
requested to be made on such date in the manner provided below, provided that
all Swingline Loans shall be made available in the full amount thereof by the
Swingline Lender no later than 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date
requested.

          (b) Each Lender shall make available all amounts it is to fund to the
Borrower under any Borrowing for its applicable Commitments, and in immediately
available funds to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent's Office
and the Administrative Agent will (except in the case of Mandatory Borrowings
and Borrowings to repay Unpaid Drawings) make available to the Borrower, by
depositing to the Borrower's account at the Administrative Agent's Office the
aggregate of the amounts so made available in Dollars. Unless the Administrative
Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to the date of any such
Borrowing that such Lender does not intend to make available to the
Administrative Agent its portion of the Borrowing or Borrowings to be made on
such date, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such
amount available to the Administrative Agent on such date of Borrowing, and the
Administrative Agent, in reliance upon such assumption, may (in its sole
discretion and without any obligation to do so) make available to the Borrower a
corresponding amount. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available
to the Administrative Agent by such Lender and the Administrative Agent has made
available same to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to
recover such corresponding amount from such Lender. If such Lender does not pay
such corresponding amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent's demand
therefor the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the
Borrower shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to the Administrative
Agent. The Administra-

                                       -52-
<PAGE>

tive Agent shall also be entitled to recover from such Lender or the Borrower
interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such
corresponding amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to the
Borrower to the date such corresponding amount is recovered by the
Administrative Agent, at a rate PER ANNUM equal to (i) if paid by such Lender,
the Federal Funds Effective Rate or (ii) if paid by the Borrower, the
then-applicable rate of interest or fees, calculated in accordance with Section
2.8, for the respective Loans.

          (c) Nothing in this Section 2.4 shall be deemed to relieve any Lender
from its obligation to fulfill its commitments hereunder or to prejudice any
rights that the Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default
by such Lender hereunder (it being understood, however, that no Lender shall be
responsible for the failure of any other Lender to fulfill its commitments
hereunder).

          2.5. REPAYMENT OF LOANS; EVIDENCE OF DEBT.

          (a) The Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent, for the
benefit of the Lenders, on the Tranche B Term Loan Maturity Date, the
then-unpaid Tranche B Term Loans, in Dollars. The Borrower shall repay to the
Administrative Agent in Dollars, for the benefit of the applicable Lenders, on
the Revolving Credit Maturity Date, the then-unpaid Revolving Credit Loans made
to the Borrower. The Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent in
Dollars, for the account of the Swingline Lender, on the Swingline Maturity
Date, the then-unpaid Swingline Loans.

          (b) [INTENTIONALLY OMITTED]

for the benefit of the Lenders of Tranche B Term Loans, on each date set forth

</TABLE>

; PROVIDED, in the event any Incremental Tranche B Term Loans are made, such
Incremental Tranche B Term Loans shall be repaid on each Repayment Date
occurring on or after the applicable Increased Amount Date in an amount equal to
(i) the aggregate principal amount of Incremental Tranche B Term Loans of the
applicable Series of Incremental Tranche B Term Loans times (ii) the ratio
(expressed as a percentage) of (y) the amount of all other Tranche B Term Loans
being repaid on such Repayment Date to (z) the total aggregate principal amount
of all other Tranche B Term Loans outstanding on such Increased Amount Date.

          (d) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice
an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to the
appropriate lending office of such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such
lending office of such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of
principal and interest payable and paid to such lending office of such Lender
from time to time under this Agreement.

          (e) The Administrative Agent shall maintain the Register pursuant to
Section 14.6(b), and a subaccount for each Lender, in which Register and
subaccounts (taken together) shall be recorded (i) the amount of each Loan made
hereunder, whether such Loan is a Term Loan, a Revolving Credit Loan or a
Swingline Loan, the Type of each Loan made and the Interest Period applicable
thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to
become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender or the Swingline Lender
hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent
hereunder from the Borrower and each Lender's share thereof.

          (f) The entries made in the Register and accounts and subaccounts
maintained pursuant to paragraphs (d) and (e) of this Section 2.5 shall, to the
extent permitted by applicable law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and
amounts of the obligations of the Borrower therein recorded; PROVIDED, HOWEVER,
that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent

                                       -54-
<PAGE>

to maintain such account, such Register or such subaccount, as applicable, or
any error therein, shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower
to repay (with applicable interest) the Loans made to the Borrower by such
Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

          2.6. CONVERSIONS AND CONTINUATIONS.

          (a) The Borrower shall have the option on any Business Day to convert
all or a portion equal to at least the Minimum Borrowing Amount of the
outstanding principal amount of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans made to the
Borrower (as applicable) of one Type into a Borrowing or Borrowings of another
Type and the Borrower shall have the option on any Business Day to continue the
outstanding principal amount of any LIBOR Term Loans or LIBOR Revolving Credit
Loans as LIBOR Term Loans or LIBOR Revolving Credit Loans, as the case may be,
for an additional Interest Period, PROVIDED that (i) no partial conversion of
LIBOR Term Loans or LIBOR Revolving Credit Loans shall reduce the outstanding
principal amount of LIBOR Term Loans or LIBOR Revolving Credit Loans made
pursuant to a single Borrowing to less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount, (ii)
ABR Loans may not be converted into LIBOR Term Loans or LIBOR Revolving Credit
Loans if a Default or Event of Default is in existence on the date of the
conversion and the Administrative Agent has or the Required Lenders have
determined in its or their sole discretion not to permit such conversion, (iii)
LIBOR Loans may not be continued as LIBOR Loans for an additional Interest
Period if a Default or Event of Default is in existence on the date of the
proposed continuation and the Administrative Agent has or the Required Lenders
have determined in its or their sole discretion not to permit such continuation
and (iv) Borrowings resulting from conversions pursuant to this Section 2.6
shall be limited in number as provided in Section 2.2. Each such conversion or
continuation shall be effected by the Borrower by giving the Administrative
Agent at the Administrative Agent's Office prior to 12:00 Noon (New York City
time) at least three Business Days' (or one Business Day's notice in the case of
a conversion into ABR Loans) prior written notice (or telephonic notice promptly
confirmed in writing) (each, a "NOTICE OF CONVERSION OR CONTINUATION")
specifying the Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans to be so converted or
continued, the Type of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans to be converted or
continued into and, if such Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans are to be
converted into or continued as LIBOR Loans, the Interest Period to be initially
applicable thereto. The Administrative Agent shall give each Lender notice as
promptly as practicable of any such proposed conversion or continuation
affecting any of its Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans.

          (b) If any Default or Event of Default is in existence at the time of
any proposed continuation of any LIBOR Loans and the Administrative Agent has or
the Required Lenders have determined in its or their sole discretion not to
permit such continuation, such LIBOR Loans shall be automatically converted on
the last day of the current Interest Period into ABR Loans. If upon the
expiration of any Interest Period in respect of LIBOR Loans, the Borrower has
failed to elect a new Interest Period to be applicable thereto as provided in
paragraph (a) above, the Borrower shall be deemed to have elected to continue
such Borrowing of LIBOR Loans into a Borrowing of ABR Loans, effective as of the
expiration date of such current Interest Period.

          2.7. PRO RATA BORROWINGS. Each Borrowing of Tranche B Term Loans under
this Agreement shall be granted by the Lenders PRO RATA on the basis of their
then-applicable Tranche B Term Loan Commitments. Each Borrowing of Revolving
Credit Loans under this Agreement shall be granted by the Lenders PRO RATA on
the basis of their then-applicable Revolving Credit Commitments. Each Borrowing
of Incremental Tranche B Term Loans under this Agreement shall be granted by the
Lenders PRO RATA on the basis of their then-applicable Incremental Tranche B
Term Loan Commitments. It is understood that no Lender shall be responsible for
any default by any other Lender in its obligation to make Loans hereunder and
that each Lender shall be obligated to make the Loans provided to be made by it
hereunder, regardless of the failure of any other Lender to fulfill its
commitments hereunder.

          2.8. INTEREST.

          (a) The unpaid principal amount of each ABR Loan shall bear interest
from the date of the Borrowing thereof until maturity (whether by acceleration
or otherwise) at a rate PER ANNUM that shall at all times be the Applicable ABR
Margin plus the ABR in effect from time to time.

          (b) The unpaid principal amount of each LIBOR Loan shall bear interest
from the date of the Borrowing thereof until maturity thereof (whether by
acceleration or otherwise) at a rate PER annum that shall at all times be the
Applicable LIBOR Margin in effect from time to time plus the relevant LIBOR
Rate.

          (c) If all or a portion of (i) the principal amount of any Loan or
(ii) any interest payable thereon shall not be paid when due (whether at the
stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall bear
interest at a rate PER ANNUM that is (x) in the case of overdue principal, the
rate that would otherwise be applicable thereto PLUS 2% or (y) in the case of
any overdue interest, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the rate
described in Section 2.8(a) PLUS 2% from and including the date of such
non-payment to but excluding the date on which such amount is paid in full
(after as well as before judgment).

          (d) Interest on each Loan shall accrue from and including the date of
any Borrowing to but excluding the date of any repayment thereof and shall be
payable (i) in respect of each ABR Loan, quarterly in arrears on the last day of
each March, June, September and December, (ii) in respect of each LIBOR Loan, on
the last day of each Interest Period applicable thereto and, in the case of an
Interest Period in excess of three months, on each date occurring at three-month
intervals after the first day of such Interest Period, (iii) in respect of each
Loan (except, other than in the case of prepayments, any ABR Loan), on any
prepayment (on the amount prepaid), at maturity (whether by acceleration or
otherwise) and, after such maturity, on demand.

          (e) All computations of interest hereunder shall be made in accordance
with Section 5.5.

          (f) The Administrative Agent, upon determining the interest rate for
any Borrowing of LIBOR Loans, shall promptly notify the Borrower and the
relevant Lenders thereof. Each such determination shall, absent clearly
demonstrable error, be final and conclusive and binding on all parties hereto.

                                       -56-

          2.9. INTEREST PERIODS. At the time the Borrower gives a Notice of
Borrowing or Notice of Conversion or Continuation in respect of the making of,
or conversion into or continuation as, a Borrowing of LIBOR Loans (in the case
of the initial Interest Period applicable thereto) or prior to 10:00 a.m. (New
York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the expiration of an Interest
Period applicable to a Borrowing of LIBOR Loans, the Borrower shall have the
right to elect by giving the Administrative Agent written notice (or telephonic
notice promptly confirmed in writing) the Interest Period applicable to such
Borrowing, which Interest Period shall, at the option of the Borrower be a one,
two, three, six or (in the case of Revolving Credit Loans, if available to all
the Lenders making such loans as determined by such Lenders in good faith based
on prevailing market conditions) a nine or twelve month period, PROVIDED that
the initial Interest Period may be for a period less than one month if agreed
upon by the Borrower and the Agents.

           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above:

          (a) the initial Interest Period for any Borrowing of LIBOR Loans shall
     commence on the date of such Borrowing (including the date of any
     conversion from a Borrowing of ABR Loans or) and each Interest Period
     occurring thereafter in respect of such Borrowing shall commence on the day
     on which the next preceding Interest Period expires;

          (b) if any Interest Period relating to a Borrowing of LIBOR Revolving
     Credit Loans begins on the last Business Day of a calendar month or begins
     on a day for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the
     calendar month at the end of such Interest Period, such Interest Period
     shall end on the last Business Day of the calendar month at the end of such
     Interest Period;

          (c) if any Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day that is not
     a Business Day, such Interest Period shall expire on the next succeeding
     Business Day, PROVIDED that if any Interest Period in respect of a LIBOR
     Loan would otherwise expire on a day that is not a Business Day but is a
     day of the month after which no further Business Day occurs in such month,
     such Interest Period shall expire on the next preceding Business Day; and

          (d) the Borrower shall not be entitled to elect any Interest Period in
     respect of any LIBOR Loan if such Interest Period would extend beyond the
     applicable Maturity Date of such Loan.

          2.10. INCREASED COSTS, ILLEGALITY, ETC.

          (a) In the event that (x) in the case of clause (i) below, the
Administrative Agent or (y) in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) below, any
Lender shall have reasonably determined (which determination shall, absent
clearly demonstrable error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties
hereto):

          (i) on any date for determining the LIBOR Rate for any Interest Period
     that (x) deposits in the principal amounts of the Loans comprising such
     LIBOR Borrowing

                                       -57-
<PAGE>

     are not generally available in the relevant market or (y) by reason of any
     changes arising on or after the Closing Date affecting the interbank LIBOR
     market, adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the
     applicable interest rate on the basis provided for in the definition of
     LIBOR Rate; or

          (ii) at any time, that such Lender shall incur increased costs or
     reductions in the amounts received or receivable hereunder with respect to
     any LIBOR Loans (other than any such increase or reduction attributable to
     Taxes) because of (x) any change since the Closing Date in any applicable
     law, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order (or in the
     interpretation or administration thereof and including the introduction of
     any new law or governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order), such as,
     for example, without limitation, a change in official reserve requirements,
     and/or (y) other circumstances affecting the interbank LIBOR market or the
     position of such Lender in such market; or

          (iii) at any time, that the making or continuance of any LIBOR Loan
     has become unlawful by compliance by such Lender in good faith with any
     law, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order (or would conflict
     with any such governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order not having
     the force of law even though the failure to comply therewith would not be
     unlawful), or has become impracticable as a result of a contingency
     occurring after the Closing Date that materially and adversely affects the
     interbank LIBOR market;

then, and in any such event, such Lender (or the Administrative Agent, in the
case of clause (i) above) shall within a reasonable time thereafter give notice
(if by telephone, confirmed in writing) to the Borrower and to the
Administrative Agent of such determination (which notice the Administrative
Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the other Lenders). Thereafter (x) in
the case of clause (i) above, LIBOR Term Loans and LIBOR Revolving Credit Loans
shall no longer be available until such time as the Administrative Agent
notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such
notice by the Administrative Agent no longer exist (which notice the
Administrative Agent agrees to give at such time when such circumstances no
longer exist), and any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion given by the
Borrower with respect to LIBOR Term Loans or LIBOR Revolving Credit Loans that
have not yet been incurred shall be deemed rescinded by the Borrower (y) in the
case of clause (ii) above, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender, promptly after
receipt of written demand therefor such additional amounts (in the form of an
increased rate of, or a different method of calculating, interest or otherwise
as such Lender in its reasonable discretion shall determine) as shall be
required to compensate such Lender for such increased costs or reductions in
amounts receivable hereunder (it being agreed that a written notice as to the
additional amounts owed to such Lender, showing in reasonable detail the basis
for the calculation thereof, submitted to the Borrower by such Lender shall,
absent clearly demonstrable error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all
parties hereto) and (z) in the case of clause (iii) above, the Borrower shall
take one of the actions specified in Section 2.10(b) as promptly as possible
and, in any event, within the time period required by law.

                                       -58-
<PAGE>

          (b) At any time that any LIBOR Loan is affected by the circumstances
described in Section 2.10(a)(ii) or (iii), the Borrower may (and in the case of
a LIBOR Loan affected pursuant to Section 2.10(a)(iii) shall) either (x) if the
affected LIBOR Loan is then being made pursuant to a Borrowing, cancel said
Borrowing by giving the Administrative Agent telephonic notice (confirmed
promptly in writing) thereof on the same date that the Borrower was notified by
a Lender pursuant to Section 2.10(a)(ii) or (iii) or (y) if the affected LIBOR
Loan is then outstanding, upon at least three Business Days' notice to the
Administrative Agent, require the affected Lender to convert each such LIBOR
Revolving Credit Loan and LIBOR Term Loan into an ABR Loan, PROVIDED that if
more than one Lender is affected at any time, then all affected Lenders must be
treated in the same manner pursuant to this Section 2.10(b).

          (c) If, after the Closing Date, the adoption of any applicable law,
rule or regulation regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein, or any
change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental
authority, the National Association of Insurance Commissioners, central bank or
comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or
compliance by a Lender or its parent with any request or directive made or
adopted after the Closing Date regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having
the force of law) of any such authority, association, central bank or comparable
agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such
Lender's or its parent's or its Affiliate's capital or assets as a consequence
of such Lender's commitments or obligations hereunder to a level below that
which such Lender or its parent or its Affiliate could have achieved but for
such adoption, effectiveness, change or compliance (taking into consideration
such Lender's or its parent's policies with respect to capital adequacy), then
from time to time, promptly after demand by such Lender (with a copy to the
Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional
amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or its parent for such
reduction, it being understood and agreed, however, that a Lender shall not be
entitled to such compensation as a result of such Lender's compliance with, or
pursuant to any request or directive to comply with, any such law, rule or
regulation as in effect on the Closing Date. Each Lender, upon determining in
good faith that any additional amounts will be payable pursuant to this Section
2.10(c), will give prompt written notice thereof to the Borrower which notice
shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis of the calculation of such
additional amounts, although the failure to give any such notice shall not,
subject to Section 2.13, release or diminish the Borrower's obligations to pay
additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.10(c) upon receipt of such notice.

          (d) It is understood that to the extent duplicative of Section 5.4,
this Section 2.10 shall not apply to Taxes.

          2.11. COMPENSATION. If (a) any payment of principal of any LIBOR Loan
is made by the Borrower to or for the account of a Lender other than on the last
day of the Interest Period for such LIBOR Loan as a result of a payment or
conversion pursuant to Section 2.5, 2.6, 2.10, 5.1, 5.2 or 14.7, as a result of
acceleration of the maturity of the Loans pursuant to Section 11 or for any
other reason, (b) any Borrowing of LIBOR Loans is not made as a result of a
withdrawn Notice of Borrowing, (c) any ABR Loan is not converted into a LIBOR
Loan as a result of a withdrawn Notice of Conversion or Continuation, (d) any
LIBOR Loan is not continued as an LIBOR Loan, as the case may be, as a result of
a withdrawn Notice of Conversion or Continuation or (e) any prepayment of
principal of any LIBOR Loan is not made as a result of a

                                       -59-
<PAGE>

withdrawn notice of prepayment pursuant to Section 5.1 or 5.2, the Borrower
shall, after receipt of a written request by such Lender (which request shall
set forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such amount), pay to the
Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender any amounts required to
compensate such Lender for any additional losses, costs or expenses that such
Lender may reasonably incur as a result of such payment, failure to convert,
failure to continue or failure to prepay, including any loss, cost or expense
(excluding loss of anticipated profits) actually incurred by reason of the
liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by any Lender to
fund or maintain such LIBOR Loan.

          2.12. CHANGE OF LENDING OFFICE. Each Lender agrees that, upon the
occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 2.10(a)(ii),
2.10(a)(iii), 2.10(b), 3.5 or 5.4 with respect to such Lender, it will, if
requested by the Borrower use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy
considerations of such Lender) to designate another lending office for any Loans
affected by such event, PROVIDED that such designation is made on such terms
that such Lender and its lending office suffer no economic, legal or regulatory
disadvantage, with the object of avoiding the consequence of the event giving
rise to the operation of any such Section. Nothing in this Section 2.12 shall
affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrower or the right of any
Lender provided in Section 2.10, 3.5 or 5.4.

          2.13. NOTICE OF CERTAIN COSTS. Notwithstanding anything in this
Agreement to the contrary, to the extent any notice required by Section 2.10,
2.11, 3.5 or 5.4 is given by any Lender more than 90 days after such Lender has
knowledge (or should have had knowledge) of the occurrence of the event giving
rise to the additional cost, reduction in amounts, loss, tax or other additional
amounts described in such Sections, such Lender shall not be entitled to
compensation under Section 2.10, 2.11, 3.5 or 5.4, as the case may be, for any
such amounts incurred or accruing prior to the 91st day prior to the giving of
such notice to the Borrower.

          2.14. INCREMENTAL FACILITIES. The Borrower may by written notice to
the Administrative Agent elect to request the establishment of one or more (x)
Incremental Tranche B Term Loan commitments (the "INCREMENTAL TRANCHE B TERM
LOAN COMMITMENTS") and/or (y) Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments (the
"INCREMENTAL REVOLVING CREDIT COMMITMENT" and, together with the Incremental
Tranche B Term Loan Commitments, the "INCREMENTAL LOAN COMMITMENTS"), by an
aggregate amount not in excess of $200,000,000 in the aggregate and not less
than $25,000,000 individually (or such lesser amount which shall be approved by
the Administrative Agent or such lesser amount that shall constitute the
difference between $200,000,000 and all such Incremental Loan Commitments
obtained prior to such date), and integral multiples of $5,000,000 in excess of
that amount. Each such notice shall specify the date (each, an "INCREASED AMOUNT
DATE") on which the Borrower proposes that the Incremental Loan Commitments
shall be effective, which shall be a date not less than 10 Business Days after
the date on which such notice is delivered to the Administrative Agent; PROVIDED
that the Borrower shall first offer the Lenders, on a PRO RATA basis, the
opportunity to provide all of the Incremental Loan Commitments prior to offering
any other Person that is an eligible assignee pursuant to Section 14.6(b);
PROVIDED, FURTHER, that any Lender offered or approached to provide all or a
portion of the Incremental Loan Commitments may elect or decline, in its sole
discretion, to provide an Incremental Loan Commitment. Such Incremental Loan
Commitments shall become effective, as of such Increased Amount Date; PROVIDED
that (1) no Default or Event of Default shall

                                       -60-
<PAGE>

exist on such Increased Amount Date before or after giving effect to such
Incremental Loan Commitments, as applicable; (2) both before and after giving
effect to the making of any Series of Incremental Tranche B Term Loans or
Incremental Revolving Loans, each of the conditions set forth in Section 7 shall
be satisfied; (3) the Borrower and its Subsidiaries shall be in pro forma
(giving effect to the application of proceeds of any incremental loans)
compliance with the covenant set forth in Section 11 (without giving effect to
any waiver pursuant to clause (a) thereto or any application of clause (b)
thereto and regardless of whether or not the Revolving Credit Commitment has
been terminated) as of the last day of the most recently ended fiscal quarter
after giving effect to such Incremental Loan Commitments and any Investment to
be consummated in connection therewith; (4) the Incremental Loan Commitments
shall be effected pursuant to one or more Joinder Agreements executed and
delivered by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and each of which shall
be recorded in the Register and shall be subject to the requirements set forth
in Section 5.4(d); (5) the Borrower shall make any payments required pursuant to
Section 2.11 in connection with the Incremental Loan Commitments, as applicable;
and (6) the Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered any legal opinions
or other documents reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent in
connection with any such transaction. Any Incremental Tranche B Term Loans made
on an Increased Amount Date shall be designated, a separate series (a "SERIES")
of Incremental Tranche B Term Loans for all purposes of this Agreement.

          On any Increased Amount Date on which Incremental Revolving Loan
Commitments are effected, subject to the satisfaction of the foregoing terms and
conditions, (a) each of the Lenders with Revolving Credit Commitments shall
assign to each Lender with an Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment (each, an
"INCREMENTAL REVOLVING LOAN LENDER") and each of the Incremental Revolving Loan
Lenders shall purchase from each of the Lenders with Revolving Credit
Commitments, at the principal amount thereof (together with accrued interest),
such interests in the Revolving Credit Loans outstanding on such Increased
Amount Date as shall be necessary in order that, after giving effect to all such
assignments and purchases, such Revolving Credit Loans will be held by existing
Lenders with Revolving Credit Loans and Incremental Revolving Loan Lenders
ratably in accordance with their Revolving Credit Commitments after giving
effect to the addition of such Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments to the
Revolving Credit Commitments, (b) each Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment
shall be deemed for all purposes a Revolving Credit Commitment and each Loan
made thereunder (an "INCREMENTAL REVOLVING LOAN") shall be deemed, for all
purposes, a Revolving Credit Loan and (c) each Incremental Revolving Loan Lender
shall become a Lender with respect to the Incremental Revolving Loan Commitment
and all matters relating thereto.

          On any Increased Amount Date on which any Incremental Tranche B Term
Loan Commitments of any Series are effective, subject to the satisfaction of the
foregoing terms and conditions, (i) each Lender with an Incremental Tranche B
Term Loan Commitment (each, an "INCREMENTAL TRANCHE B LOAN LENDER") of any
Series shall make a Loan to the Borrower (an "INCREMENTAL TRANCHE B TERM LOAN")
in an amount equal to its Incremental Tranche B Term Loan Commitment of such
Series, and (ii) each Incremental Tranche B Term Loan Lender of any Series shall
become a Lender hereunder with respect to the Incremental Tranche B Term Loan
Commitment of such Series and the Incremental Tranche B Term Loans of such
Series made pursuant thereto.

                                       -61-
<PAGE>

          The terms and provisions of the Incremental Tranche B Term Loans and
Incremental Tranche B Term Loan Commitments of any Series shall be, except as
otherwise set forth herein or in the Joinder Agreement, identical to the Tranche
B Term Loans; provided, HOWEVER, that (i) the applicable Incremental Tranche B
Term Loan Maturity Date of each Series shall be no shorter than the final
maturity of the Revolving Credit Loans and the Tranche B Term Loans and (ii) the
rate of interest applicable to the Incremental Tranche B Term Loans of each
Series shall be determined by the Borrower and the applicable new Lenders and
shall be set forth in each applicable Joinder Agreement. The terms and
provisions of the Incremental Revolving Loans and Incremental Revolving Credit
Commitments shall be identical to the Revolving Credit Loans and the Revolving
Credit Commitments.

          Each Joinder Agreement may, without the consent of any other Lenders,
effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Credit Documents as may
be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, to
effect the provision of this Section 2.14.

          SECTION 3. LETTERS OF CREDIT.

          3.1. LETTERS OF CREDIT.

          (a) Subject to and upon the terms and conditions herein set forth, at
any time and from time to time after the Closing Date and prior to the L/C
Maturity Date, the Borrower, may request that the Letter of Credit Issuer issue
for the account of the Borrower (i) a standby letter of credit or letters of
credit in Dollars, (ii) a sight trade letter of credit or letters of credit in
Dollars or (iii) for the account of the Borrower and for the benefit of any
creditor of the Borrower or its Subsidiaries located outside the United States,
a bank guarantee or bank guarantees (collectively, the "LETTERS OF CREDIT" and
each, a "LETTER OF CREDIT"), in each case in such form as may be approved by the
Letter of Credit Issuer in its reasonable discretion.

          (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) no Letter of Credit shall be
issued the Stated Amount of which, when added to the Letters of Credit
Outstanding at such time, would exceed the Letter of Credit Commitment then in
effect; (ii) no Letter of Credit shall be issued the Stated Amount of which
would cause the aggregate amount of the Lender's Revolving Credit Exposures at
such time to exceed the Revolving Credit Commitment then in effect; (iii) each
Letter of Credit shall have an expiration date occurring no later than one year
after the date of issuance thereof, unless otherwise agreed upon by the
Administrative Agent and the Letter of Credit Issuer, PROVIDED that in no event
shall such expiration date occur later than the L/C Maturity Date; (iv) each
Letter of Credit shall be denominated in Dollars or Euros, PROVIDED that the
aggregate Stated Amount of all Letters of Credit denominated in Euros shall not
exceed $30,000,000; (v) no Letter of Credit shall be issued if it would be
illegal under any applicable law for the beneficiary of the Letter of Credit to
have a Letter of Credit issued in its favor; (vi) no Letter of Credit shall be
issued by a Letter of Credit Issuer after it has received a written notice from
the Borrower or any Lender stating that a Default or Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing until such time as the Letter of Credit Issuer shall
have received a written notice of (x) rescission of such notice from the party
or parties originally delivering such notice or (y) the waiver of such Default
or Event of Default in accordance with the provisions of Section 14.1; and (vii)
no Letter of Credit shall be issued unless after giving effect thereto and to
all other issuances of Letters of Credit and borrowings of Revolving Loans and
Swingline Loans on such

                                       -62-
<PAGE>

date, the Intelsat Ltd. Notes Condition is satisfied. Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of the
Borrower shall be deemed a utilization of the Revolving Credit Commitments
allocated to the Borrower.

          (c) Upon at least one Business Day's prior written notice (or
telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) to the Administrative Agent and
the Letter of Credit Issuer (which notice the Administrative Agent shall
promptly transmit to each of the applicable Lenders), the Borrower shall have
the right, on any day, permanently to terminate or reduce the Letter of Credit
Commitment in whole or in part, PROVIDED that, after giving effect to such
termination or reduction, the Letters of Credit Outstanding shall not exceed the
Letter of Credit Commitment.

          (d) The parties hereto agree that, subject to the satisfaction of the
conditions precedent set forth in Section 6, the Existing Letters of Credit
shall be deemed Letters of Credit for all purposes under this Agreement, without
any further action by the Borrower.

          (e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this SECTION 3.1, a
Letter of Credit Issuer shall be under no obligation to issue any Letter of
Credit if any Lender with a Revolving Credit Commitment is a Defaulting Lender
at such time, unless such Letter of Credit Issuer has entered into arrangement
reasonably satisfactory to it and the Borrower to eliminate such Letter of
Credit Issuer's risk with respect to the participation in Letters of Credit by
such Defaulting Lender (which may include, without limitation, cash
collateralizing such Defaulting Lender's Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage
of the Letter of Credit Outstandings).

          3.2. LETTER OF CREDIT REQUESTS.

          (a) Whenever the Borrower desires that a Letter of Credit be issued
for its account, it shall give the Administrative Agent and the Letter of Credit
Issuer at least five (or such lesser number as may be agreed upon by the
Administrative Agent and the Letter of Credit Issuer) Business Days' written
notice thereof. Each notice shall be executed by the Borrower and shall be in
the form of EXHIBIT H hereto (each a "LETTER OF CREDIT REQUEST"). The
Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit copies of each Letter of Credit
Request to each Lender.

          (b) The making of each Letter of Credit Request shall be deemed to be
a representation and warranty by the Borrower that the Letter of Credit may be
issued in accordance with, and will not violate the requirements of, Section
3.1(b).

          3.3. LETTER OF CREDIT PARTICIPATIONS.

          (a) Immediately upon the issuance by the Letter of Credit Issuer of
any Letter of Credit, the Letter of Credit Issuer shall be deemed to have sold
and transferred to each other Lender that has a Revolving Credit Commitment
(each such other Lender, in its capacity under this Section 3.3, an "L/C
PARTICIPANT"), and each such L/C Participant shall be deemed irrevocably and
unconditionally to have purchased and received from the Letter of Credit Issuer,
without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation (each an
"L/C PARTICIPATION"), to the extent of such L/C Participant's Revolving Credit
Commitment Percentage in such Letter of Credit, each substitute letter of
credit, each drawing made thereunder and the obligations of the Borrower under
this Agreement with respect thereto, and any security therefor or guaranty
per-

                                       -63-
<PAGE>

taining thereto (although Letter of Credit Fees will be paid directly to the
Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the L/C Participants as provided
in Section 4.1(b) and the L/C Participants shall have no right to receive any
portion of any Fronting Fees).

          (b) In determining whether to pay under any Letter of Credit, the
relevant Letter of Credit Issuer shall have no obligation relative to the L/C
Participants other than to confirm that any documents required to be delivered
under such Letter of Credit have been delivered and that they appear to comply
on their face with the requirements of such Letter of Credit. Any action taken
or omitted to be taken by the relevant Letter of Credit Issuer under or in
connection with any Letter of Credit issued by it, if taken or omitted in the
absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall not create for the
Letter of Credit Issuer any resulting liability.

          (c) In the event that the Letter of Credit Issuer makes any payment
under any Letter of Credit issued by it and the Borrower shall not have repaid
such amount in full to the respective Letter of Credit Issuer pursuant to
Section 3.4(a), the Letter of Credit Issuer shall promptly notify the
Administrative Agent and each applicable L/C Participant of such failure, and
each such L/C Participant shall promptly and unconditionally pay to the
Administrative Agent for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer, the amount
of such L/C Participant's Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of such
unreimbursed payment in Dollars or Euros, as the case may be, and in immediately
available funds; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no L/C Participant shall be obligated
to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the respective Letter of
Credit Issuer its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of such unreimbursed
amount arising from any wrongful payment made by the Letter of Credit Issuer
under a Letter of Credit as a result of acts or omissions constituting willful
misconduct or gross negligence on the part of the Letter of Credit Issuer. If
the Letter of Credit Issuer so notifies, prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York City
time) on any Business Day, any L/C Participant required to fund a payment under
a Letter of Credit, such L/C Participant shall make available to the
Administrative Agent for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer such L/C
Participant's Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of the amount of such
payment on such Business Day in immediately available funds. If and to the
extent such L/C Participant shall not have so made its Revolving Credit
Commitment Percentage of the amount of such payment available to the
Administrative Agent for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer, such L/C
Participant agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the
Letter of Credit Issuer, forthwith on demand, such amount, together with
interest thereon for each day from such date until the date such amount is paid
to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer at
the Federal Funds Effective Rate. The failure of any L/C Participant to make
available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Letter of Credit
Issuer its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of any payment under any
Letter of Credit shall not relieve any other L/C Participant of its obligation
hereunder to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the
Letter of Credit Issuer its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of any
payment under such Letter of Credit on the date required, as specified above,
but no L/C Participant shall be responsible for the failure of any other L/C
Participant to make available to the Administrative Agent such other L/C
Participant's Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of any such payment.

          (d) Whenever the Letter of Credit Issuer receives a payment in respect
of an unpaid reimbursement obligation as to which the Administrative Agent has
received for the ac-

                                       -64-
<PAGE>

count of the Letter of Credit Issuer any payments from the L/C Participants
pursuant to paragraph (c) above, the Letter of Credit Issuer shall pay to the
Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to each L/C
Participant that has paid its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of such
reimbursement obligation, in Dollars or Euros, as the case may be, and in
immediately available funds, an amount equal to such L/C Participant's share
(based upon the proportionate aggregate amount originally funded by such L/C
Participant to the aggregate amount funded by all L/C Participants) of the
principal amount of such reimbursement obligation and interest thereon accruing
after the purchase of the respective L/C Participations.

          (e) The obligations of the L/C Participants to make payments to the
Administrative Agent for the account of a Letter of Credit Issuer with respect
to Letters of Credit shall be irrevocable and not subject to counterclaim,
set-off or other defense or any other qualification or exception whatsoever and
shall be made in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement
under all circumstances, including under any of the following circumstances:

          (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any of
     the other Credit Documents;

          (ii) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right that
     the Borrower may have at any time against a beneficiary named in a Letter
     of Credit, any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom
     any such transferee may be acting), the Administrative Agent, the Letter of
     Credit Issuer, any Lender or other Person, whether in connection with this
     Agreement, any Letter of Credit, the transactions contemplated herein or
     any unrelated transactions (including any underlying transaction between
     the Borrower and the beneficiary named in any such Letter of Credit);

          (iii) any draft, certificate or any other document presented under any
     Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient
     in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any
     respect;

          (iv) the surrender or impairment of any security for the performance
     or observance of any of the terms of any of the Credit Documents; or

          (v) the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default;

PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no L/C Participant shall be obligated to pay to the
Administrative Agent for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer its
Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of any unreimbursed amount arising from
any wrongful payment made by the Letter of Credit Issuer under a Letter of
Credit as a result of acts or omissions constituting willful misconduct or gross
negligence on the part of the Letter of Credit Issuer.

          3.4. AGREEMENT TO REPAY LETTER OF CREDIT DRAWINGS.

          (a) The Borrower hereby agrees to reimburse the relevant Letter of
Credit Issuer, by making payment in Dollars or Euros, as the case may be, to the
Administrative Agent (in the case of reimbursement made by the Borrower) in
immediately available funds for any payment or disbursement made by the Letter
of Credit Issuer under any Letter of Credit (each such

                                       -65-
<PAGE>

amount so paid until reimbursed, an "UNPAID DRAWING") immediately after, and in
any event on the date of, such payment, with interest on the amount so paid or
disbursed by the Letter of Credit Issuer, to the extent not reimbursed prior to
5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date of such payment or disbursement, from
and including the date paid or disbursed to but excluding the date the Letter of
Credit Issuer is reimbursed therefor at a rate PER ANNUM that shall at all times
be the Applicable ABR Margin plus the ABR Rate as in effect from time to time,
PROVIDED that, notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the
contrary, (i) unless the Borrower shall have notified the Administrative Agent
and the relevant Letter of Credit Issuer prior to 10:00 a.m. (New York City
time) on the date of such drawing that the Borrower intends to reimburse the
relevant Letter of Credit Issuer for the amount of such drawing with funds other
than the proceeds of Loans, the Borrower shall be deemed to have given a Notice
of Borrowing requesting that, with respect to Letters of Credit, that the
Lenders with Revolving Credit Commitments make Revolving Credit Loans (which
shall be ABR Loans) and (ii) the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each
relevant L/C Participant of such drawing and the amount of its Revolving Credit
Loan to be made in respect thereof, and each L/C Participant shall be
irrevocably obligated to make a Revolving Credit Loan to the Borrower in the
manner deemed to have been requested in the amount of its Revolving Credit
Commitment Percentage of the applicable Unpaid Drawing by 12:00 noon (New York
City time) on such Business Day by making the amount of such Revolving Credit
Loan available to the Administrative Agent. Such Revolving Credit Loans shall be
made without regard to the Minimum Borrowing Amount. The Administrative Agent
shall use the proceeds of such Revolving Credit Loans solely for purpose of
reimbursing the Letter of Credit Issuer for the related Unpaid Drawing.

          (b) The obligations of the Borrower under this Section 3.4 to
reimburse the Letter of Credit Issuer with respect to Unpaid Drawings
(including, in each case, interest thereon) shall be absolute and unconditional
under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any set-off, counterclaim or
defense to payment that the Borrower or any other Person may have or have had
against the Letter of Credit Issuer, the Administrative Agent or any Lender
(including in its capacity as an L/C Participant), including any defense based
upon the failure of any drawing under a Letter of Credit (each a "DRAWING") to
conform to the terms of the Letter of Credit or any non-application or
misapplication by the beneficiary of the proceeds of such Drawing, PROVIDED that
the Borrower shall not be obligated to reimburse the Letter of Credit Issuer for
any wrongful payment made by the Letter of Credit Issuer under the Letter of
Credit issued by it as a result of acts or omissions constituting willful
misconduct or gross negligence on the part of the Letter of Credit Issuer.

          3.5. INCREASED COSTS. If, after the Closing Date, the adoption of any
applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change therein, or any change in the
interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central
bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration
thereof, or actual compliance by the Letter of Credit Issuer or any L/C
Participant with any request or directive made or adopted after the Closing Date
(whether or not having the force of law), by any such authority, central bank or
comparable agency shall either (a) impose, modify or make applicable any
reserve, deposit, capital adequacy or similar requirement against letters of
credit issued by the Letter of Credit Issuer, or any L/C Participant's L/C
Participation therein, or (b) impose on the Letter of Credit Issuer or any L/C
Participant any other conditions affecting its obligations under this Agreement
in respect of Let-

                                       -66-
<PAGE>

ters of Credit or L/C Participations therein or any Letter of Credit or such L/C
Participant's L/C Participation therein, and the result of any of the foregoing
is to increase the cost to the Letter of Credit Issuer or such L/C Participant
of issuing, maintaining or participating in any Letter of Credit, or to reduce
the amount of any sum received or receivable by the Letter of Credit Issuer or
such L/C Participant hereunder (other than any such increase or reduction
attributable to taxes) in respect of Letters of Credit or L/C Participations
therein, then, promptly after receipt of written demand to the Borrower by the
Letter of Credit Issuer or such L/C Participant, as the case may be (a copy of
which notice shall be sent by the Letter of Credit Issuer or such L/C
Participant to the Administrative Agent (with respect to Letter of Credit issued
on account of the Borrower)), the Borrower shall pay to the Letter of Credit
Issuer or such L/C Participant such additional amount or amounts as will
compensate the Letter of Credit Issuer or such L/C Participant for such
increased cost or reduction, it being understood and agreed, however, that the
Letter of Credit Issuer or a L/C Participant shall not be entitled to such
compensation as a result of such Person's compliance with, or pursuant to any
request or directive to comply with, any such law, rule or regulation as in
effect on the Closing Date. A certificate submitted to the Borrower by the
relevant Letter of Credit Issuer or a L/C Participant, as the case may be (a
copy of which certificate shall be sent by the Letter of Credit Issuer or such
L/C Participant to the Administrative Agent (with respect to Letters of Credit
issued on account of the Borrower)), setting forth in reasonable detail the
basis for the determination of such additional amount or amounts necessary to
compensate the Letter of Credit Issuer or such L/C Participant as aforesaid
shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower absent clearly demonstrable
error.

          3.6. SUCCESSOR LETTER OF CREDIT ISSUER. A Letter of Credit Issuer may
resign as Letter of Credit Issuer upon 60 days' prior written notice to the
Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower. If the Letter of Credit
Issuer shall resign as Letter of Credit Issuer under this Agreement, then the
Borrower shall appoint from among the Lenders with Revolving Credit Commitments
a successor issuer of Letters of Credit, whereupon such successor issuer shall
succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Letter of Credit Issuer, and the
term "Letter of Credit Issuer" shall mean such successor issuer effective upon
such appointment. At the time such resignation shall become effective, the
Borrower shall pay to the resigning Letter of Credit Issuer all accrued and
unpaid fees pursuant to Sections 4.1(c) and (e). The acceptance of any
appointment as the Letter of Credit Issuer hereunder by a successor Lender shall
be evidenced by an agreement entered into by such successor, in a form
satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and, from and after
the effective date of such agreement, such successor Lender shall have all the
rights and obligations of the previous Letter of Credit Issuer under this
Agreement and the other Credit Documents. At the time such resignation shall
become effective, the Borrower shall pay to the resigning Letter of Credit
Issuer all accrued and unpaid fees pursuant to Sections 4.1(d) and (e). After
the resignation of the Letter of Credit Issuer hereunder, the resigning Letter
of Credit Issuer shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the
rights and obligations of a Letter of Credit Issuer under this Agreement and the
other Credit Documents with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to
such resignation, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of
Credit. After any retiring Letter of Credit Issuer's resignation as Letter of
Credit Issuer, the provisions of this Agreement relating to the Letter of Credit
Issuer shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken
by it (a) while it was Letter of Credit Issuer under this Agreement or (b) at
any time with respect to Letters of Credit issued by such Letter of Credit
Issuer.

          4.1. FEES.

          (a) (i) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent in
Dollars, for the account of each Lender having a Revolving Credit Commitment (in

of Credit Exposure, a fee in respect of each Letter of Credit (the "LETTER OF

Letter of Credit to but excluding the termination date of such Letter of Credit
computed at the PER ANNUM rate for each day equal to the Applicable LIBOR Margin
for Revolving Credit Loans minus 0.125% PER ANNUM on the average daily Stated
Amount of such Letter of Credit. Such Letter of Credit Fees shall be due and
payable quarterly in arrears on the last day of each March, June, September and
December and on the date upon which the Total Revolving Credit Commitment
terminates and the Letters of Credit Outstanding shall have been reduced to
zero.

          (c) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent in Dollars
for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer a fee in respect of each Letter
of Credit issued by it (the "FRONTING FEE"), for the period from and including
the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit to but excluding the termination
date of such Letter of Credit, computed at the rate for each day equal to 0.125%
PER ANNUM on the average daily Stated Amount of such Letter of Credit. Such

each March, June, September and December and on the date upon which the Total
Revolving Credit Commitment terminates and the Letters of Credit Outstanding

in Dollars upon each issuance of, drawing under, and/or amendment of, a Letter
of Credit issued by it such amount as the Letter of Credit Issuer and the
Borrower shall have agreed upon for issuances of, drawings under or amendments
of, letters of credit issued by it.

          4.2. VOLUNTARY REDUCTION OF REVOLVING CREDIT COMMITMENTS. Upon at
least one Business Day's prior written notice (or telephonic notice promptly
confirmed in writing) to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent's
Office (which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each of
the Lenders), the Borrower (on behalf of itself) shall

                                       -68-
<PAGE>

have the right, without premium or penalty, on any day, permanently to terminate
or reduce the Revolving Credit Commitments in whole or in part, PROVIDED that
(a) any such reduction shall apply proportionately and permanently to reduce the
Revolving Credit Commitment of each of the Lenders, (b) any partial reduction
pursuant to this Section 4.2 shall be in the amount of at least $5,000,000 and
(c) after giving effect to such termination or reduction and to any prepayments
of the Loans made on the date thereof in accordance with this Agreement, the
aggregate amount of the Lenders' Revolving Credit Exposures shall not exceed the
Total Revolving Credit Commitment.

          4.3. MANDATORY TERMINATION OF COMMITMENTS.

          (a) (i) [INTENTIONALLY OMITTED]

          (d) The Incremental Tranche B Term Loan Commitment for any Series
shall terminate at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Increased Amount Date
for such Series.

          (e) If any prepayment of Term Loans would otherwise be required
pursuant to Section 5.2(a) but cannot be made because there are no Term Loans
outstanding, or because the amount of the required prepayment exceeds the
outstanding amount of Term Loans, then, on the date that such prepayment is
required, an aggregate amount equal to the amount of the required prepayment, or
the excess of such amount over the outstanding amount of Tranche B Term Loans,
as the case may be, shall be applied by the Borrower, first, to repay the
outstanding principal amount of Swingline Loans, second, after all Swingline
Loans have been paid in full, Revolving Credit Loans (without a reduction of the
Revolving Credit Commitment) and third, after all Revolving Credit Loans have
been paid in full, to cash collateralize Letters of Credit.

          SECTION 5. PAYMENTS.

          5.1. VOLUNTARY PREPAYMENTS. The Borrower shall have the right to
prepay Term Loans, Revolving Credit Loans and Swingline Loans, in each case,
without premium or penalty, in whole or in part from time to time on the
following terms and conditions: (a) the Borrower shall give the Administrative
Agent and at the Administrative Agent's Office written notice (or telephonic
notice promptly confirmed in writing) of its intent to make such prepayment, the
amount of such prepayment and (in the case of LIBOR Loans) the specific
Borrowing(s) pursuant to which made, which notice shall be given by the Borrower
no later than (i) in the case of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans, 10:00
a.m. (New York City time) one Business Day prior to, or (ii) in the case of

                                       -69-
<PAGE>

Lenders or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be; (b) each partial prepayment
of any Borrowing of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans shall be in a multiple
of $100,000 and in an aggregate principal amount of at least $1,000,000 and each
partial prepayment of Swingline Loans shall be in a multiple of $10,000 and in
an aggregate principal amount of at least $100,000, PROVIDED that no partial
prepayment of LIBOR Term Loans or LIBOR Revolving Credit Loans made pursuant to
a single Borrowing shall reduce the outstanding LIBOR Term Loans or LIBOR
Revolving Credit Loans made pursuant to such Borrowing to an amount less than
the Minimum Borrowing Amount for LIBOR Term Loans or LIBOR Revolving Credit
Loans and (c) any prepayment of LIBOR Term Loans or LIBOR Revolving Credit Loans
pursuant to this Section 5.1 on any day other than the last day of an Interest
Period applicable thereto shall be subject to compliance by the Borrower with
the applicable provisions of Section 2.11. Each prepayment in respect of any
tranche of Term Loans pursuant to this Section 5.1 shall be applied to reduce
Repayment Amounts in such order as the Borrower may determine. At the Borrower's
election in connection with any prepayment pursuant to this Section 5.1, such
prepayment shall not be applied to any Term Loan or Revolving Credit Loan of a
Defaulting Lender.

          5.2. MANDATORY PREPAYMENTS.

          (a) TERM LOAN PREPAYMENTS. (i) On each occasion that a Prepayment
Event occurs, the Borrower shall, within one Business Day after the occurrence
of a Debt Incurrence Prepayment Event and within five Business Days after the
occurrence of any other Prepayment Event, prepay, in accordance with paragraph
(c) below, the principal amount of Term Loans in an amount equal to 100% of the
Net Cash Proceeds from such Prepayment Event.

          (ii) [INTENTIONALLY OMITTED].

          (iii) [INTENTIONALLY OMITTED].

          (iv) [INTENTIONALLY OMITTED].

          (b) REPAYMENT OF REVOLVING CREDIT LOANS. If on any date the aggregate
amount of the Lenders' Revolving Credit Exposures (all the foregoing,
collectively, the "AGGREGATE REVOLVING CREDIT OUTSTANDINGS") exceeds 100% of the
Total Revolving Credit Commitment as then in effect, the Borrower shall
forthwith repay on such date the principal amount of Swingline Loans and, after
all Swingline Loans have been paid in full, Revolving Credit Loans in an amount
equal to such excess. If, after giving effect to the prepayment of all
outstanding Swingline Loans and Revolving Credit Loans, the Aggregate Revolving
Credit Outstandings exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitment then in effect,
the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent an amount in cash equal to
such excess and the Administrative Agent shall hold such payment for the benefit
of the Lenders as security for the obligations of the Borrower hereunder
(including obligations in respect of Letters of Credit Outstanding) pursuant to
a cash collateral agreement to be entered into in form and substance
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (which shall permit certain Investments
in Permitted Investments satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, until the
proceeds are applied to the secured obligations).

                                       -70-
<PAGE>

          (c) APPLICATION OF REPAYMENT AMOUNTS. Each prepayment of Term Loans
required by Section 5.2(a)(i) shall be applied to reduce the Repayment Amounts
in such order as the Borrower may determine up to an amount equal to the
aggregate amount of the applicable Repayment Amounts required to be made by the
Borrower pursuant to Section 2.5(b) and (c) during the two year period
immediately following the date of the prepayment (such amount being, the
"AMORTIZATION AMOUNT"), PROVIDED that to the extent that the amount of the
prepayment exceeds the Amortization Amount, such excess shall be applied ratably
to reduce the then remaining Repayment Amounts under such Credit Facility. With
respect to each such prepayment, the Borrower will, not later than the date
specified in Section 5.2(a) for making such prepayment, give the Administrative
Agent telephonic notice (promptly confirmed in writing) requesting that the
Administrative Agent provide notice of such prepayment to each Tranche B Term
Loan Lender.

          (d) APPLICATION TO TERM LOANS. With respect to each prepayment of
Tranche B Term Loans required by Section 5.2(a), the Borrower may designate the
Types of Loans that are to be prepaid and the specific Borrowing(s) pursuant to
which made, PROVIDED that LIBOR Term Loans made pursuant to a single Borrowing
shall reduce the outstanding Term Loans made pursuant to such Borrowing to an
amount less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount for LIBOR Loans such Borrowing
shall immediately be converted into ABR Loans. In the absence of a designation
by the Borrower as described in the preceding sentence, the Administrative Agent
shall, subject to the above, make such designation in its reasonable discretion
with a view, but no obligation, to minimize breakage costs owing under Section
2.11.

          (e) APPLICATION TO REVOLVING CREDIT LOANS. With respect to each
prepayment of Revolving Credit Loans required by Section 5.2(b), the Borrower
may designate (i) the Types of Loans that are to be prepaid and the specific
Borrowing(s) pursuant to which made and (ii) the Revolving Credit Loans to be
prepaid, PROVIDED that (w) LIBOR Revolving Credit Loans may be designated for
prepayment pursuant to this Section 5.2 only on the last day of an Interest
Period applicable thereto unless all LIBOR Loans with Interest Periods ending on
such date of required prepayment and all ABR Loans have been paid in full; (x)
if any prepayment by the Borrower of LIBOR Revolving Credit Loans made pursuant
to a single Borrowing shall reduce the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans made
pursuant to such Borrowing to an amount less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount
for LIBOR Revolving Credit Loans, such Borrowing shall immediately be converted
into ABR Loans; (y) each prepayment of any Loans made pursuant to a Borrowing
shall be applied PRO RATA among such Loans; and (z) notwithstanding the
provisions of the preceding clause (y), no prepayment made pursuant to Section
5.2(a) or Section 5.2(b) of Revolving Credit Loans shall be applied to the
Revolving Credit Loans of any Defaulting Lender. In the absence of a designation
by the Borrower as described in the preceding sentence, the Administrative Agent
shall, subject to the above, make such designation in its reasonable discretion
with a view, but no obligation, to minimize breakage costs owing under Section
2.11.

          (f) LIBOR INTEREST PERIODS. In lieu of making any payment pursuant to
this Section 5.2 in respect of any LIBOR Loan other than on the last day of the
Interest Period therefor so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, the Borrower at its option may deposit with the
Administrative Agent an amount equal to the amount of the LIBOR Loan to be
prepaid and such LIBOR Loan shall be repaid on the last day of the Inter-

                                       -71-
<PAGE>

est Period therefor in the required amount. Such deposit shall be held by the
Administrative Agent in a corporate time deposit account established on terms
reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, earning interest at the
then-customary rate for accounts of such type. Such deposit shall constitute
cash collateral for the Obligations, PROVIDED that the Borrower may at any time
direct that such deposit be applied to make the applicable payment required
pursuant to this Section 5.2.

          (g) [INTENTIONALLY OMITTED].

          (h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section
5.2 or elsewhere in this Agreement (including, without limitation, in Section
14.1), the Borrower shall have the option, in its sole discretion, to give the
Lenders with outstanding Term Loans the option to waive their PRO RATA share of
a mandatory repayment of Term Loans which is to be made pursuant to Section 5.2
(each such repayment, a "WAIVABLE MANDATORY REPAYMENT") upon the terms and
provisions set forth in this Section 5.2(i) except for Debt Incurrence
Prepayment Events for Indebtedness permitted to be incurred under Section
10.1(A)(o) or 10.1(A)(w). If the Borrower elects to exercise the option referred
to in the immediately preceding sentence, the Borrower shall give to the
Administrative Agent written notice of its intention to give the Lenders the
right to waive a Waivable Mandatory Repayment (including in such notice, the
aggregate amount of such proposed repayment) at least five Business Days prior
to the date of the proposed repayment, which notice the Administrative Agent
shall promptly forward to all Lenders with outstanding Term Loans (indicating in
such notice the amount of such repayment to be applied to each such Lender's
outstanding Term Loans). The Borrower's offer to permit the Lenders with
outstanding Term Loans to waive any such Waivable Mandatory Repayment may apply
to all or part of such repayment, PROVIDED that any offer to waive part of such
repayment must be made ratably to the Lenders with outstanding Term Loans on the
basis of their outstanding Term Loans. In the event that any such Lender with
outstanding Term Loans desires to waive its PRO RATA share of such Lender's
right to receive any such Waivable Mandatory Repayment in whole or in part, such
Lender shall so advise the Administrative Agent no later than 4:00 P.M. (New
York time) on the date which is two Business Days after the date of such notice
from the Administrative Agent (and the Administrative Agent shall promptly
thereafter notify the Borrower thereof), which notice shall also include the
amount such Lender desires to receive in respect of such repayment. If any
Lender with outstanding Term Loans does not reply to the Administrative Agent
within such two Business Day period, such Lender will be deemed not to have
waived any part of such repayment. If any Lender with outstanding Term Loans
does not specify an amount it wishes to receive, such Lender will be deemed to
have accepted 100% of its share of such repayment. In the event that any such
Lender waives all or part of its share of any such Waivable Mandatory Repayment,
the Borrower shall retain 100% of the amount so waived by such Lender.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above, if one or more Lenders
with outstanding Term Loans waives its right to receive all or any part of any
Waivable Mandatory Repayment, but less than all the Lenders with outstanding
Term Loans waive in full their right to receive 100% of the total payment
otherwise required with respect to the Term Loans, then the amount actually
applied to the repayment of Term Loans of Lenders which have waived all or any
part of their right to receive 100% of such repayment, shall be applied to each
then outstanding Borrowing of Term Loans on a PRO RATA basis (so that each
Lender with outstanding Term Loans shall, after giving effect to the application
of the respective repayment,

                                       -72-
<PAGE>

maintain the same percentage (as determined for such Lender, but not the same
percentage that the other Lenders with outstanding Term Loans hold and not the
same percentage held by such Lender prior to repayment) of each Borrowing of
Term Loans which remains outstanding after giving effect to such application).
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Lenders shall not have the right to
waive mandatory repayments under Section 5.2(a) except as set forth in this
Section 5.2(h).

          (i) If on any date on which Dollar Equivalents are determined pursuant
to Section 14.19(c), the Letter of Credit Outstandings with respect to Letters
of Credit denominated in Euros exceed $30,000,000, the Borrower shall, if such
excess is greater than or equal to $500,000, pay to the Administrative Agent at
the Payment Office on such date an amount of cash and/or Cash Equivalents equal
to the amount by which such Letter of Credit Outstandings exceed $30,000,000,
such cash and/or Cash Equivalents (i) to be held as security for all obligations
of the Borrower to the Lenders hereunder in a cash collateral account to be
established by the Administrative Agent on terms reasonably satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent and (ii) to be released to the Borrower from and after any
date on which Dollar Equivalents are determined pursuant to Section 14.19(c) and
on which the Letter of Credit Outstandings with respect to Letters of Credit
denominated in Euros are no longer in excess of $30,000,000.

          5.3. METHOD AND PLACE OF PAYMENT.

          (a) Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, all payments
under this Agreement shall be made by the Borrower, without set-off,
counterclaim or deduction of any kind, to the Administrative Agent for the
ratable account of the Lenders entitled thereto, the Letter of Credit Issuer or
the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, not later than 12:00 Noon (New York
City time) on the date when due and shall be made in immediately available funds
at the Administrative Agent's Office or at such other office as the
Administrative Agent shall specify for such purpose by notice to the Borrower,
it being understood that written or facsimile notice by the Borrower to the
Administrative Agent to make a payment from the funds in the Borrower's account
at the Administrative Agent's Office shall constitute the making of such payment
to the extent of such funds held in such account. All payments under each Credit
Document (whether of principal, interest or otherwise) shall be made in Dollars.
The Administrative Agent will thereafter cause to be distributed on the same day
(if payment was actually received by the Administrative Agent prior to 2:00 p.m.
(New York City time) on such day) like funds relating to the payment of
principal or interest or Fees ratably to the Lenders entitled thereto.

          (b) Any payments under this Agreement that are made later than 2:00
p.m. (New York City time) shall be deemed to have been made on the next
succeeding Business Day. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder shall be
stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall
be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, with respect to payments of
principal, interest shall be payable during such extension at the applicable
rate in effect immediately prior to such extension.

          5.4. NET PAYMENTS.

          (a) Any and all payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower or any
Guarantor under this Agreement or any other Credit Document shall be made free
and clear of, and

                                       -73-
<PAGE>

without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any Indemnified Taxes;
PROVIDED that if Borrower or any Guarantor shall be required by law to deduct or
withhold any Indemnified Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable
shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions and
withholdings (including deductions or withholdings applicable to additional sums
payable under this Section 5.4) the Administrative Agent or any Lender, as the
case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no
such deductions or withholdings been made, (ii) the Borrower or any Guarantor
shall make such deductions or withholdings and (iii) the Borrower or any
Guarantor shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant
Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. Whenever any
Indemnified Taxes are payable by the Borrower, as promptly as possible
thereafter, the Borrower shall send to the Administrative Agent for its own
account or for the account of such Lender, as the case may be, a certified copy
of an original official receipt (or other evidence acceptable to such Lender,
acting reasonably) received by the Borrower showing payment thereof.

          (b) Borrower shall pay and shall indemnify and hold harmless the
Administrative Agent and each Lender (whether or not such Other Taxes were
correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority)
with regard to any Other Taxes.

          (c) Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative
Agent and each Lender within 15 Business Days after written demand therefor, for
the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes imposed on the Administrative Agent or
such Lender as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on
account of any obligation of the Borrower or any Guarantor hereunder or under
any other Credit Document (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or
attributable to amounts payable under this Section 5.4) and any reasonable
expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such
Indemnified 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 by the Administrative Agent
on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest
error.

          (d) A Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or
reduction in a withholding tax imposed under the laws of Bermuda with respect to
payments under this Agreement or any other Credit Document shall deliver to the
Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by
applicable law and as reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative
Agent such properly completed and executed documentation as will permit such
payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate, PROVIDED that such
Lender is legally entitled to complete, execute and deliver such documentation.
To the extent it is legally entitled to do so, each Lender agrees to use
reasonable efforts (consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions and
subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to file or deliver to
the Borrower and the Administrative Agent any certificate or document, as
reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, that may be
necessary to establish any available exemption from, or reduction in the amount
of, any withholding taxes imposed by a jurisdiction other than Bermuda;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that a Lender shall not be required to file or deliver any
such certificate or document if in such Lender's reasonable judgment such
completion, execution or delivery would be disadvantageous to such Lender or
would subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost.

                                       -74-
<PAGE>

          (e) If the Borrower determines in good faith that a reasonable basis
exists for contesting any taxes for which indemnification has been demanded
hereunder, the relevant Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, shall
cooperate with the Borrower in challenging such taxes at the Borrower's expense
if so requested by the Borrower. If any Lender or the Administrative Agent, as
applicable, receives a refund of a tax for which a payment has been made by the
Borrower pursuant to this Agreement (or reduction of, or credit against its tax
liabilities in lieu of a refund), which refund, reduction or credit in the good
faith judgment of such Lender or Administrative Agent, as the case may be, is
attributable to such payment made by the Borrower, then the Lender or the
Administrative Agent, as the case may be, shall reimburse the Borrower for such
amount (together with any interest received thereon) as the Lender or
Administrative Agent, as the case may be, determines to be the proportion of the
refund, reduction or credit as will leave it, after such reimbursement, in no
better or worse position (taking into account expenses or any taxes imposed on
the refund) than it would have been in if the payment had not been required. A
Lender or Administrative Agent shall claim any refund, reduction or credit that
it determines is available to it, unless it concludes in its reasonable
discretion that it would be adversely affected by making such a claim. Neither
the Lender nor the Administrative Agent shall be obliged to disclose any
information regarding its tax affairs or computations to the Borrower in
connection with this paragraph (e) or any other provision of this Section 5.4.

          (f) The agreements in this Section 5.4 shall survive the termination
of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable
hereunder.

          5.5. COMPUTATIONS OF INTEREST AND FEES.

          (a) Interest on LIBOR Loans and, except as provided in the next
succeeding sentence, ABR Loans shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day
year for the actual days elapsed. Interest on ABR Loans in respect of which the
rate of interest is calculated on the basis of the Prime Rate and interest on
overdue interest shall be calculated on the basis of a 365- (or 366-, as the
case may be) day year for the actual days elapsed.

          (b) Fees and Letters of Credit Outstanding shall be calculated on the
basis of a 365- (or 366-, as the case may be) day year for the actual days
elapsed.

          5.6. LIMIT ON RATE OF INTEREST.

          (a) NO PAYMENT SHALL EXCEED LAWFUL RATE. Notwithstanding any other
term of this Agreement, the Borrower shall not be obliged to pay any interest or
other amounts under or in connection with this Agreement in excess of the amount
or rate permitted under or consistent with any applicable law, rule or
regulation.

          (b) PAYMENT AT HIGHEST LAWFUL RATE. If the Borrower is not obliged to
make a payment which it would otherwise be required to make, as a result of
Section 5.6(a), the Borrower shall make such payment to the maximum extent
permitted by or consistent with applicable laws, rules and regulations.

          (c) ADJUSTMENT IF ANY PAYMENT EXCEEDS LAWFUL RATE. If any provision of
this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents would obligate the Borrower
to make any

                                       -75-
<PAGE>

payment of interest or other amount payable to any Lender in an amount or
calculated at a rate which would be prohibited by any applicable law, rule or
regulation, then notwithstanding such provision, such amount or rate shall be
deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or
rate of interest, as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by law, such
adjustment to be effected, to the extent necessary, by reducing the amount or
rate of interest required to be paid by the Borrower to the affected Lender
under Section 2.8.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, and after giving effect to all adjustments
contemplated thereby, if any Lender shall have received from the Borrower an
amount in excess of the maximum permitted by any applicable law, rule or
regulation, then the Borrower shall be entitled, by notice in writing to the
Administrative Agent to obtain reimbursement from that Lender in an amount equal
to such excess, and pending such reimbursement, such amount shall be deemed to
be an amount payable by that Lender to the Borrower.

          SECTION 6. CONDITIONS PRECEDENT TO INITIAL BORROWING ON THE CLOSING
DATE. The obligation of each Lender and, if applicable, each Letter of Credit
Issuer to fund the Loans and issue the Letters of Credit requested to be made or
issued by it on the Closing Date shall be subject to the prior or concurrent
satisfaction of each of the conditions precedent set forth in this Section 6.

          6.1. CONSUMMATION OF THE ACQUISITION. All conditions precedent to the
Acquisition shall be satisfied in accordance with the Acquisition Agreement and

funding of the Loans hereunder, and no material provision or condition of the
Acquisition Agreement shall have been waived, amended, supplemented or otherwise
modified in a manner that is material and adverse to the Lead Arrangers or the
Lenders without the prior written consent of the Lead Arrangers, which shall not
be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

as of the date of such Credit Event (except where such representations and
warranties expressly relate to an earlier date, in which case such
representations and warranties shall have been true and correct in all material
respects as of such earlier date).

          7.2. NOTICE OF BORROWING; LETTER OF CREDIT REQUEST.

          (a) Prior to the making of each Term Loan, each Revolving Credit Loan

the applicable conditions specified above exist as of that time.

          SECTION 8. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND AGREEMENTS.

          In order to induce the Lenders to enter into this Agreement, to make
the Loans and issue or participate in Letters of Credit as provided for herein,
Holdings and the Borrower make the following representations and warranties to,
and agreements with, the Lenders, all of which shall survive the execution and
delivery of this Agreement and the making of the Loans and the issuance of the
Letters of Credit:

          8.1. CORPORATE STATUS. Each of Holdings, the Borrower and each
Material Subsidiary (a) is a duly organized and validly existing corporation or
other entity in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its
organization and has the corporate or other organizational power and authority
to own its property and assets and to transact the business in which it is
engaged and (b) has duly qualified and is authorized to do business and is in
good standing in all jurisdictions where it is required to be so qualified,
except where the failure to be so qualified could not reasonably be expected to
result in a Material Adverse Effect.

          8.2. CORPORATE POWER AND AUTHORITY. Each Credit Party has the
corporate or other organizational power and authority to execute, deliver and
carry out the terms and provisions of the Credit Documents to which it is a
party and has taken all necessary corporate or other organizational action to
authorize the execution, delivery and performance of the Credit Documents to
which it is a party. Each Credit Party has duly executed and delivered each
Credit Document to which it is a party and each such Credit Document which is
currently in effect constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of such
Credit Party enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as the
enforceability thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws
affecting creditors' rights generally and subject to general principles of
equity.

          8.3. NO VIOLATION. Neither the execution, delivery or performance by
any Credit Party of the Credit Documents to which it is a party and which is
currently in effect nor compliance with the terms and provisions thereof nor the
consummation of the Acquisition and the other transactions contemplated hereby
or thereby will (a) contravene any applicable provision of any material law,
statute, rule, regulation, order, writ, injunction or decree of any court or
governmental instrumentality, (b) result in any breach of any of the terms,
covenants, conditions

                                       -79-
<PAGE>

or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or
imposition of (or the obligation to create or impose) any Lien upon any of the
property or assets of the Borrower or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries (other
than Liens created under the Credit Documents) pursuant to, the terms of any
material indenture (including the Senior Note Indentures), loan agreement, lease
agreement, mortgage, deed of trust, agreement or other material instrument to
which Holdings, the Borrower or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries is a party or
by which it or any of its property or assets is bound or (c) violate any

     the Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries shall send to the holders of any
     publicly issued debt of Holdings, the Borrower and/or any of the
     Subsidiaries (including any Senior Notes (whether publicly issued or not))
     in their capacity as such holders (in each case to the extent not
     theretofore delivered to the Lenders pursuant to this Agreement) and, with
     reasonable promptness, such other information (financial or otherwise) as
     the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of the Required
     Lenders may reasonably request in writing from time to time; PROVIDED that
     Holdings and the Borrower shall not be required to furnish any such reports
     and other materials to the Administrative Agent or any Lender to the extent
     the same is publicly available on the website of Intelsat, Ltd., Holdings
     or the Borrower or through the EDGAR system.

          (h)  PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENT CERTIFICATE. Not later than the consummation
     of the acquisition of any Acquired Entity or Business by the Borrower or
     any Restricted Subsidiary for which there shall be a Pro Forma Adjustment

     respect to any four-quarter period in which a Pro Forma Adjustment is made
     as a result of the consummation of the acquisition of any Acquired Entity
     or Business by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary for which there
     shall be a Pro Forma Adjustment, a certificate of an Authorized Officer of
     the Borrower setting forth the amount of such Pro Forma Adjustment and, in
     reasonable detail, the calculations and basis therefor.

          (i)  FCC REPORTS. Promptly upon their becoming available, copies of
     any and all periodic or special reports filed by Holdings, the Borrower or
     any of its Restricted Subsidiaries with the FCC or with any other Federal,
     state or local governmental authority, if such reports indicate any
     material adverse change in the business, operations, affairs or condition
     of the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, and copies of any
     and all notices and other communications from the FCC or from any other
     Federal, state or local governmental authority with respect to Holdings,

<PAGE>

     any of its Subsidiaries, a Satellite Health Report and (ii) with respect to
     any In-Orbit Satellite that is operated by any Person other than the
     Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, any satellite health reports received
     by the Borrower from such Person, it being understood that to the extent
     that any such Satellite Health Report or other satellite health report
     contains any forward looking statements, estimates or projections, such
     statements, estimates or projections are subject to significant
     uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond the Borrower's or
     any of its Subsidiaries' control, and no assurance can be given that such
     forward looking statements, estimates or projections will be realized, and
     PROVIDED that nothing in this clause (j) shall require the Borrower to
     deliver any information to the Administrative Agent or any Lender to the
     extent delivery of such information is restricted by applicable law or
     regulation.

          9.2. BOOKS, RECORDS AND INSPECTIONS. Holdings and the Borrower will,
and the Borrower will cause each of the Subsidiaries to, permit officers and
designated representatives of the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders
to visit and inspect any of the properties or assets Holdings, the Borrower and
any such Subsidiary in whomsoever's possession to the extent that it is within
such party's control to permit such inspection, and to examine the books and
records of Holdings, the Borrower and any such Subsidiary and discuss the
affairs, finances and accounts of Holdings, the Borrower and of any such
Subsidiary with, and be advised as to the same by, its and their officers and
independent accountants, all at such reasonable times and intervals and to such
reasonable extent as the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders may
desire; PROVIDED that so long as no Default or Event of Default is then in
existence, the Borrower and any Credit Party shall have the right to participate
in any discussions of the Agents or the Lenders with any independent accountants
of Holdings or the Borrower.

          9.3. MAINTENANCE OF INSURANCE.

          (a)  The Borrower will, and the Borrower will cause each of its
Restricted Subsidiaries to, obtain, maintain and keep in full force and effect
at all times (i) with respect to each Satellite procured by the Borrower or any
of its Restricted Subsidiaries for which the risk of loss passes to the Borrower
or such Restricted Subsidiary at or before launch, and for which launch
insurance or commitments with respect thereto are not in place as of the Closing
Date, launch insurance with respect to each such Satellite covering the launch
of such Satellite and a period of time thereafter, but only to the extent, if at
all, and on such terms (including coverage period, exclusions, limitations on
coverage, co-insurance, deductibles and coverage amount) as is determined by the
Borrower to be in the best interests of the Borrower, (ii) with respect to each
Satellite it currently owns or for which it has risk of loss (or, if the entire
Satellite is not owned, the portion it owns or for which it has risk of loss),
other than any Excluded Satellite, In-Orbit Insurance and (iii) at all times
subsequent to the coverage period of the launch insurance described in clause
(i) above, if any, or if launch insurance is not procured, at all times
subsequent to the initial completion of in-orbit testing, in each case with
respect to each Satellite it then owns or for which it has risk of loss (or
portion, as applicable), other than any Excluded Satellite, In-Orbit Insurance;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that at any time with respect to a Satellite that is not an
Excluded Satellite, none of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries shall be
required to maintain In-Orbit Insurance in excess of 33% of the aggregate net
book value of all in-orbit Satellites (and portions it owns or for which it has
risk of loss) insured (it being understood that any Satellite (or

                                       -89-
<PAGE>

portion, as applicable) protected by In-Orbit Contingency Protection shall be
deemed to be insured for a percentage of its net book value as set forth in the
definition of "In-Orbit Contingency Protection"). In the event that the
expiration and non-renewal of In-Orbit Insurance for such a Satellite (or
portion, as applicable) resulting from a claim of loss under such policy causes
a failure to comply with the proviso in the immediately preceding sentence, the
Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall be deemed to be in compliance
with such proviso for the 120 days immediately following such expiration or
non-renewal, PROVIDED that the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries,
as the case may be, procures such In-Orbit Insurance or provides such In-Orbit
Contingency Protection as necessary to comply with such proviso within such
120-day period. In the event of the unavailability of any In-Orbit Contingency
Protection for any reason, the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries,
as the case may be, shall, subject to the first proviso above, within 120 days
of such unavailability, be required to have in effect In-Orbit Insurance
complying with clause (ii) or (iii) above, as applicable, with respect to all
Satellites (or portions, as applicable), other than Excluded Satellites that the
unavailable In-Orbit Contingency Protection was intended to protect and for so
long as such In-Orbit Contingency Protection is unavailable, PROVIDED that the
Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall be considered in compliance with
this insurance covenant for the 120 days immediately following such
unavailability.

          (b) The Borrower will, and the Borrower will cause each of its
Restricted Subsidiaries to, use its reasonable best efforts to at all times keep
the respective property of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries (except
(x) real or personal property leased or financed through third parties in
accordance with this Agreement and (y) satellites) insured in favor of the
Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and all policies or
certificates with respect to such insurance (and any general liability, umbrella
liability coverage and workers' compensation insurance (to the extent permitted
by law) maintained by, or on behalf of, the Borrower or any Restricted
Subsidiary of the Borrower) (i) shall be endorsed to the Administrative Agent's
reasonable satisfaction for the benefit of the Administrative Agent (including,
without limitation, by naming the Administrative Agent as certificate holder,
mortgagee and loss payee with respect to real property, certificate holder and
loss payee with respect to personal property, additional insured with respect to
general liability and umbrella liability coverage and (to the extent permitted
by law) certificate holder with respect to workers' compensation insurance),
(ii) shall state that such insurance policies shall not be cancelled or
materially changed without at least 30 days' prior written notice thereof by the
respective insurer to the Administrative Agent, PROVIDED that with respect to
any launch insurance or In-Orbit Insurance, such notice is available, and if
available, on such terms as may be available, and (iii) shall, upon the request
of the Administrative Agent, be deposited with the Administrative Agent for the
benefit of the Secured Parties.

          (c) If the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries shall fail
to maintain all insurance in accordance with this Section 9.03, or if the
Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries shall fail to so name the
Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties as an additional
insured, mortgagee or loss payee, as the case may be, or so deposit all
certificates with respect thereto, the Administrative Agent shall have the right
(but shall be under no obligation), upon reasonable prior notice to the Borrower
of its intention to do so, to procure

                                       -90-
<PAGE>

such insurance on such terms and against such risks as are required hereby, and
the Borrower agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent for any premium paid
therefor.

          9.4. PAYMENT OF TAXES The Borrower will pay and discharge, and the
Borrower will cause each of the Subsidiaries to pay and discharge, all material
taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies imposed upon it or upon
its income or profits, or upon any properties belonging to it, prior to the date
on which material penalties attach thereto, and all lawful material claims that,
if unpaid, could reasonably be expected to become a material Lien upon any
properties of the Borrower or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries, PROVIDED that
none of the Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries shall be required to pay any
such tax, assessment, charge, levy or claim that is being contested in good
faith and by proper proceedings if it has maintained adequate reserves (in the
good faith judgment of the management of the Borrower) with respect thereto in
accordance with GAAP and the failure to pay could not reasonably be expected to
result in a Material Adverse Effect.

          9.5. CONSOLIDATED CORPORATE FRANCHISES. The Borrower will do, and the
Borrower will cause each Material Subsidiary to do, or cause to be done, all
things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its existence,
corporate rights and authority, except to the extent that the failure to do so
could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that the Borrower and its Subsidiaries may consummate any transaction
permitted under Section 10.3, 10.4 or 10.5.

          9.6. COMPLIANCE WITH STATUTES, REGULATIONS, ETC. The Borrower will,
and the Borrower will cause each Subsidiary to, comply with all applicable laws,
rules, regulations and orders applicable to it or its property (including all
FCC Licenses and all other governmental approvals or authorizations required to
launch and operate the Satellites and the TT&C Stations related thereto) and to
transmit signals to and receive transmissions from the Satellites, and to
maintain all such FCC Licenses and other governmental approvals or
authorizations in full force and effect, in each case except where the failure
to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect (it
being understood that any failure as it may relate to any FCC License for a
Satellite that is yet to be launched shall not, in itself, be considered or
deemed to result in a Material Adverse Effect).

          9.7. ERISA. Promptly after the Borrower or any Subsidiary or any ERISA
Affiliate knows or has reason to know of the occurrence of any of the following
events that, individually or in the aggregate (including in the aggregate such
events previously disclosed or exempt from disclosure hereunder, to the extent
the liability therefor remains outstanding), would be reasonably likely to have
a Material Adverse Effect, the Borrower will deliver to each of the Lenders a
certificate of an Authorized Officer or any other senior officer of the Borrower
setting forth details as to such occurrence and the action, if any, that the
Borrower, such Subsidiary or such ERISA Affiliate is required or proposes to
take, together with any notices (required, proposed or otherwise) given to or
filed with or by the Borrower, such Subsidiary, such ERISA Affiliate, the PBGC,
a Plan participant (other than notices relating to an individual participant's
benefits) or the Plan administrator with respect thereto: that a Reportable
Event has occurred; that an accumulated funding deficiency has been incurred or
an application is to be made to the Secretary of the Treasury for a waiver or
modification of the minimum funding standard (includ-

                                       -91-
<PAGE>

ing any required installment payments) or an extension of any amortization
period under Section 412 of the Code with respect to a Plan; that a Plan having
an Unfunded Current Liability has been or is to be terminated, reorganized,
partitioned or declared insolvent under Title IV of ERISA (including the giving
of written notice thereof); that a Plan has an Unfunded Current Liability that
has or will result in a lien under ERISA or the Code; that proceedings will be
or have been instituted to terminate a Plan having an Unfunded Current Liability
(including the giving of written notice thereof); that a proceeding has been
instituted against the Borrower, a Subsidiary or an ERISA Affiliate pursuant to
Section 515 of ERISA to collect a delinquent contribution to a Plan; that the
PBGC has notified the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any ERISA Affiliate of its
intention to appoint a trustee to administer any Plan; that the Borrower, any
Subsidiary or any ERISA Affiliate has failed to make a required installment or
other payment pursuant to Section 412 of the Code with respect to a Plan; or
that the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any ERISA Affiliate has incurred or will
incur (or has been notified in writing that it will incur) any liability
(including any contingent or secondary liability) to or on account of a Plan
pursuant to Section 409, 502(i), 502(l), 515, 4062, 4063, 4064, 4069, 4201 or
4204 of ERISA or Section 4971 or 4975 of the Code.

          9.8. MAINTENANCE OF PROPERTIES. The Borrower will, and the Borrower
will cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, keep and maintain all
property material to the conduct of its business in good working order and
condition, ordinary wear and tear excepted, which shall include, in the case of
Satellites (other than Satellites yet to be launched), the provision of
tracking, telemetry, control and monitoring of Satellites in their designated
orbital positions in accordance with prudent and diligent standards in the
commercial satellite industry, except to the extent that the failure to do so
could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

          9.9. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES. The Borrower will conduct, and
cause each of the Restricted Subsidiaries to conduct, all transactions with any
of its Affiliates (other than the Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries)
involving aggregate consideration in excess of $10,000,000 on terms that are
substantially as favorable to the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary as it
would obtain in a comparable arm's-length transaction with a Person that is not
an Affiliate, PROVIDED that the foregoing restrictions shall not apply to (a)
the payment, on a quarterly basis, of management and consulting fees to the
Sponsors in an aggregate amount not to exceed in any fiscal year of the Borrower
the greater of (x) $6,250,000 and (y) 1.25% of Consolidated EBITDA of the
Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries for the immediately preceding fiscal
year, (b) upon the consummation of a Qualified IPO, as consideration for the
termination of existing management, consulting or financial or similar services

the Borrower), as such agreement is in effect on the date hereof or as modified,
amended or supplemented in any manner not materially adverse to the Lenders, (c)
the payment of customary investment banking fees paid to the Sponsors for
services rendered to the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries in connection
with divestitures, acquisitions, financings and other transactions, (d)
transactions conducted in accordance with the Intercompany Services Agreement as
in effect on the date hereof or as modified, amended or supplemented in any
manner not materially adverse to the Lenders, (e) the Transactions and
transactions to effect the same, including the payment of fees and expenses
related thereto, (f) customary fees paid to and

                                       -92-
<PAGE>

customary indemnities provided to members of the board of directors of the
Borrower, its parent entities and the Subsidiaries, (g) transactions permitted
by Section 10.1, 10.3, 10.5 or 10.6, (h) employment and other compensation
arrangements with respect to the procurement of services of officers,

relating to payments, whether directly or by dividend, by the Borrower or a
Restricted Subsidiary to any parent of the Borrower if such parent is required
to file a consolidated, unitary or similar tax return reflecting income of the
Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries in an amount equal to the portion of
such taxes attributable to the Borrower and/or its Restricted Subsidiaries that
are not payable directly by the Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries, but not
to exceed the amount that the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiaries would
have been required to pay in respect of taxes if the Borrower and such
Restricted Subsidiaries had been required to pay such taxes directly as
standalone taxpayers (or a standalone group separate from such parent), (k)
agreements in effect on the Closing Date and listed on SCHEDULE 9.9 and

a director of Holdings or such parent, as the case may be, on any matter
involving such Person.

          9.10. END OF FISCAL YEARS; FISCAL QUARTERS. Holdings and the Borrower
will, for financial reporting purposes, cause (a) each of their, and each of
their respective Subsidiaries', fiscal years to end on December 31 of each year
and (b) each of their, and each of their respective Subsidiaries', fiscal
quarters to end on dates consistent with such fiscal year-end and the Borrower's
past practice; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Borrower may, upon written notice to
the Administrative Agent, change the financial reporting convention specified
above to any other financial reporting convention reasonably acceptable to the
Administrative Agent, in which case Holdings, the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent will, and are hereby authorized by the Lenders to, make any
adjustments to this Agreement that are necessary in order to reflect such change
in financial reporting.

          9.11. ADDITIONAL GUARANTORS AND GRANTORS. Except as set forth in
Section 10.1(A)(j) or (A)(k), the Borrower will cause (i) each direct or
indirect Material Subsidiary (other than any Unrestricted Subsidiary or a
Receivables Subsidiary) formed or otherwise purchased or acquired after the
Closing Date (including pursuant to a Permitted Acquisition), (ii) each
Subsidiary (other than any Unrestricted Subsidiary) that is not a Material
Subsidiary on the Closing Date but subsequently becomes a Material Subsidiary
and (iii) each inactive Subsidiary listed on Schedule 1.1(d) hereto (unless such
Subsidiary is designated an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with terms of
this Agreement) which acquires any material assets or is otherwise no longer
deemed inactive, in each case to execute a supplement to the Guarantee in the
form of Annex B thereto and a Supplemental Security Agreement; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that no Foreign Subsidiary shall be required to take such actions if,
and to the extent that, based upon written advice of local counsel reasonably
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and/or such Foreign
Subsidiary concludes that the taking of such actions would violate the laws of
the

                                       -93-
<PAGE>

jurisdiction in which such Foreign Subsidiary is organized; PROVIDED FURTHER,
that if steps (for example, limiting the amount guaranteed) can be taken so that
such violation would not exist, then, if requested by the Administrative Agent,
the respective Foreign Subsidiary shall enter into a modified Guarantee and/or
modified Security Documents that provide, to the maximum extent permissible
under applicable law, as many of the benefits as possible as are provided
pursuant to the Guarantee and the Security Documents executed and delivered on
the Closing Date.

          9.12. PLEDGES OF ADDITIONAL STOCK AND EVIDENCE OF INDEBTEDNESS.

          (a) Except as set forth in Section 10.1(A)(j) or (A)(k), Holdings will
pledge as a first priority Lien the capital stock of the Borrower and the
Borrower will pledge, and, if applicable, will cause each Material Subsidiary to
pledge, to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, (i)
all the capital stock of each Subsidiary (other than any Unrestricted
Subsidiary) and Minority Investments other than, up to an aggregate Fair Market
Value of $30,000,000, Minority Investments with a Fair Market Value of less than
$15,000,000 (unless such pledge is prohibited by an applicable joint venture,
shareholder or similar agreement) and held by the Borrower or a Subsidiary
Guarantor, in each case, formed or otherwise purchased or acquired after the
Closing Date, in each case pursuant to a supplement to the applicable Pledge
Agreement (or, if necessary, a new pledge agreement) in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (ii) all evidences of
Indebtedness in excess of $1,000,000 received by the Borrower or any Subsidiary
Guarantor in connection with any disposition of assets pursuant to Section
10.4(b), in each case pursuant to a supplement to the applicable Pledge
Agreement (or, if necessary, a new pledge agreement) in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, and (iii) any global
promissory notes executed after the Closing Date evidencing Indebtedness of the
Borrower, each Subsidiary and each Minority Investment that is owing to the
Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor, in each case pursuant to a supplement to
the applicable Pledge Agreement (or, if necessary, a new pledge agreement) in
form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

          (b) Holdings and the Borrower agrees that all Indebtedness in excess
of $20,000,000 of Holdings, the Borrower and each Subsidiary that is owing to
any Credit Party to the Pledge Agreement shall be evidenced by one or more
global promissory notes.

          (c) At all times on and after the Closing Date, Holdings and the
Borrower will cause each obligor and obligee of any loan or advance (including,
without limitation, pursuant to guarantees thereof or security thereof) which
are (x) made to the Borrower by Holdings or any of the Borrower's Subsidiaries
or (y) made to any Credit Party by a Subsidiary of the Borrower that is not a
Credit Party prior to the extension or incurrence of such loan or advance, to
execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an intercompany subordination
agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit I (as modified, amended or
supplemented from time to time, the "INTERCOMPANY SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT") or,
to the extent the Intercompany Subordination Agreement has previously come into
effect, a joinder agreement in respect of the Intercompany Subordination
Agreement and, in connection therewith, promptly execute and deliver all further
instruments, and take all further action, that the Administrative Agent may
reasonably require; PROVIDED that no such Intercompany Subordination Agreement
is required to be entered into in re-

                                       -94-
<PAGE>

spect of intercompany loans and advances in the aggregate not exceeding
$20,000,000, and with such further exceptions as the Administrative Agent may
agree.

          9.13. USE OF PROCEEDS. The Borrower will use the Letters of Credit and
the proceeds of all Loans for the purposes set forth in the introductory
statement to this Agreement.

          9.14. CHANGES IN BUSINESS.

          (a) The Borrower and the Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, will not
fundamentally and substantively alter the character of their business, taken as
a whole, from the business conducted or proposed to be conducted by the Borrower
and the Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, on the Closing Date and other business
activities that are complementary, ancillary incidental or related to,
reasonably similar to or a reasonable extension, development or expansion of any
of the foregoing (a "PERMITTED BUSINESS").

          (b) No License Subsidiary will engage in any line or lines of business
activity other than to hold FCC Licenses issued to it and to enter into
arrangements with the Borrower or other Restricted Subsidiaries (other than
other License Subsidiaries) to manage and operate such FCC Licenses under its
direction and control, in each case to the maximum extent permitted by
applicable law. The Borrower will cause all Subject Licenses at all times to be
held in the name of a License Subsidiary (which shall be the sole legal and
beneficial owner thereof). Any license issued after the Closing Date by the FCC
that constitutes a Subject License shall be held in the name of a License
Subsidiary (which shall be the sole legal and beneficial owner thereof).

          9.15. FURTHER ASSURANCES.

          (a) Holdings and the Borrower will, and will cause each other Credit
Party to, execute any and all further documents, financing statements,
agreements and instruments, and take all such further actions (including the
filing and recording of financing statements, fixture filings, mortgages, deeds
of trust and other documents), which may be required under any applicable law,
or which the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders may reasonably
request, in order to grant, preserve, protect and perfect the validity and
priority of the security interests created or intended to be created by the
Security Agreements, the Pledge Agreements or any Mortgage, all at the expense
of Holdings, the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries.

          (b) If any assets (including any real estate or improvements thereto
or any interest therein) with a book value or fair market value in excess of
$15,000,000 are acquired by the Borrower or any other Credit Party after the
Closing Date (other than assets constituting Collateral under the Security
Agreements that become subject to the Lien of the Security Agreement upon
acquisition thereof) that are of the nature secured by the Security Agreements
or any Mortgage, as the case may be, the Borrower will notify the Administrative
Agent and the Lenders thereof, and, if requested by the Administrative Agent or
the Required Lenders, the Borrower will cause such assets to be subjected to a
Lien securing the applicable Obligations and will take, and cause the other
Credit Parties to take, such actions as shall be necessary or reasonably
requested by the Administrative Agent to grant and perfect such Liens (unless,
with respect to any such asset, same is subject to one or more agreements or
Liens permitted hereunder which agreements or Lien(s) prohibit the granting of a
security interest thereon as contemplated by this

                                       -95-
<PAGE>

clause (b), in which case the actions otherwise required by this Section 9.15(b)
with respect to such asset shall not be required to be taken until such
prohibitions cease to be applicable) consistent with the applicable requirements
of the Security Documents, including actions described in paragraph (a) of this
Section 9.15, all at the expense of the Credit Parties. Any Mortgage delivered
to the Administrative Agent in accordance with the preceding sentence or
pursuant to Section 9.15(c) shall be accompanied by (x) a policy or policies of
title insurance issued by a nationally recognized title insurance company
insuring the Lien of each Mortgage as a valid first Lien on the Mortgaged
Property described therein, free of any other Liens except as expressly
permitted by Section 10.2, together with such endorsements, coinsurance and
reinsurance as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request and (y) an
opinion of local counsel to the Borrower (or in the event a Subsidiary of the
Borrower is the mortgagor, to such Subsidiary) in form and substance
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. Any provision contained herein or in
the Security Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, the Collateral shall not
include at any time any FCC License to the extent (but only to the extent) that
at such time the Administrative Agent may not validly possess a security
interest therein pursuant to the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, and the
regulations promulgated thereunder, as in effect at such time, but the
Collateral shall include, to the maximum extent permitted by law, all rights
incident or appurtenant to the FCC Licenses and the right to receive all

of tracking, telemetry, control and monitoring services for any Satellite to
agree to, not change any access codes, command codes or command encryption
necessary to establish access to and perform tracking, telemetry, control and
monitoring of each Satellite at any time that an Event of Default exists and
such provider of tracking, telemetry, control and monitoring services, as the
case may be, has been notified by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent
thereof, without promptly furnishing to the Administrative Agent the new access
codes, command codes and command encryption necessary to establish access to and
perform tracking, telemetry, control and monitoring of such Satellite, once such

indirectly, Intelsat General Corporation to take, or fail to take, any action
that would violate the covenants and terms of this Agreement or cause any
representation or warranty contained in this Agreement to be untrue.

request of the Required Lenders, by written notice to the Borrower, take any or
all of the following actions, without prejudice to the rights of the
Administrative Agent or any Lender to enforce its claims against the Borrower,
except as otherwise specifically provided for in this Agreement (PROVIDED that,
if an Event of Default specified in Section 12.5 shall occur with respect to
Holdings, the Borrower or any Specified Subsidiary, the result that would occur
upon the giving of written notice by the Administrative Agent as specified in
clauses (i), (ii) and (iv) below shall occur automatically without the giving of
any such notice): (i) declare the Total Revolving Credit Commitment terminated,
whereupon the Commitments and Swingline Commitment, if any, of each Lender or
the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, shall forthwith terminate immediately
and any Fees theretofore accrued shall forthwith become due and payable without
any other notice of any kind; (ii) declare the principal of and any accrued
interest and fees in respect of all Loans and all Obligations owing hereunder
and thereunder to be, whereupon the same shall become, forthwith due and payable
without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which
are hereby waived by the Borrower; (iii) terminate any Letter of Credit that may
be terminated in accordance with its terms; and/or (iv) direct the Borrower to
pay (and the Borrower agrees that upon receipt of such notice, or upon the
occurrence of an Event of Default specified in Section 12.5 with respect to the
Borrower or any Specified Subsidiary, it will pay) to the Administrative Agent
at the Administrative Agent's Office such additional amounts of cash, to be held
as security for the Borrower's respective reimbursement obligations for Drawings
that may subsequently occur thereunder, equal to the aggregate Stated Amount of
all Letters of Credit issued and then outstanding.

          12.14. PERMITTED EQUITY ISSUANCE. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in this Section 12, in the event of any Event of Default
under the covenant set forth in Section 11 and until the expiration of the tenth
(10th) day after the date on which financial statements are required to be
delivered with respect to the applicable fiscal quarter hereunder, Holdings may
engage in a Permitted Equity Issuance to the Sponsors, Intelsat Bermuda or any
Affiliate of Intelsat Bermuda other than Holdings and its Subsidiaries and apply
the amount of the Net Cash Proceeds thereof to increase Consolidated EBITDA with
respect to such applicable quarter; PROVIDED that such Net Cash Proceeds (i) are
actually received by Holdings and contributed as common equity to the Borrower
(including through capital contribution of such Net Cash Proceeds by Intelsat
Bermuda to Holdings and by Holdings to the Borrower) no later than ten (10) days
after the date on which financial statements are required to be delivered with
respect to such fiscal quarter hereunder, (ii) are not otherwise utilized to
increase the Applicable Amount or as the basis for incurring Contribution
Indebtedness and (iii) do not exceed the aggregate amount

                                      -115-

<PAGE>

necessary to cure such Event of Default under Section 11, as applicable, for any
applicable period. The parties hereby acknowledge that the foregoing may not be
relied on for purposes of calculating any financial ratios other than as
applicable to Section 11 and shall not result in any adjustment to any amounts
other than the amount of the Consolidated EBITDA referred to in the immediately
preceding sentence. In each period of four consecutive fiscal quarters, there
shall be at least two (2) fiscal quarters in which no cure set forth above is
made.

          SECTION 13. THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT.

          13.1. APPOINTMENT. Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and
appoints the Administrative Agent as the agent of such Lender under this
Agreement and the other Credit Documents, and each such Lender irrevocably
authorizes the Administrative Agent, in such capacity, to take such action on
its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents
and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated
to the Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Credit
Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.
Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, the
Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those
expressly set forth herein, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and
no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or
liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Credit Document or
otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent. The Syndication Agent, in its
capacity as such, shall have no obligations, duties or responsibilities under
this Agreement but shall be entitled to all benefits of this Section 13.

          13.2. DELEGATION OF DUTIES. The Administrative Agent may execute any
of its duties under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents by or through
agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel
concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Administrative Agent shall
not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or
attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care.

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

                                      -116-

<PAGE>

          13.4. RELIANCE BY ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT. The Administrative Agent shall
be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing,
resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telecopy, telex or
teletype message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by
it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper
Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including
counsel to the Borrower and/or Holdings), independent accountants and other
experts selected by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may deem
and treat the Lender specified in the Register with respect to any amount owing
hereunder as the owner thereof for all purposes unless a written notice of
assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with the
Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in
failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Credit
Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the
Required Lenders as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its
satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense that may
be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The
Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in
refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents in
accordance with a request of the Required Lenders, and such request and any
action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the
Lenders and all future holders of the Loans.

          13.5. NOTICE OF DEFAULT. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed
to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default
hereunder unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender or
the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of
Default and stating that such notice is a "notice of default." In the event that
the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall
give notice thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall take such
action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably
directed by the Required Lenders, PROVIDED that unless and until the
Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative
Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from
taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall
deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders (except to the extent that
this Agreement requires that such action be taken only with the approval of the
Required Lenders or each of the Lenders, as applicable).

          13.6. NON-RELIANCE ON ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND OTHER LENDERS. Each
Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Administrative Agent nor any of
its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates has
made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the
Administrative Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of
the Borrower, any Guarantor or any other Credit Party, shall be deemed to
constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent to any
Lender. Each Lender represents to the Administrative Agent that it has,
independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other
Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed
appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business,
operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of
Holdings, the Borrower, any Guarantor and any other Credit Party and made its
own decision to make its Loans hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each
Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon the
Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and
information as

                                      -117-

<PAGE>

it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis,
appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and
the other Credit Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary
to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other
condition and creditworthiness of Holdings, the Borrower, any Guarantor and any
other Credit Party. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly
required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder,
the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide
any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, assets,
operations, properties, financial condition, prospects or creditworthiness of
Holdings, the Borrower, any Guarantor or any other Credit Party that may come
into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its officers,
directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates.

          13.7. INDEMNIFICATION. The Lenders agree to indemnify the
Administrative Agent in its capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed by
the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so),
ratably according to their respective portions of the Total Credit Exposure in
effect on the date on which indemnification is sought (or, if indemnification is
sought after the date upon which the Commitments shall have terminated and the
Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with their respective
portions of the Total Credit Exposure in effect immediately prior to such date),
from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages,
penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any
kind whatsoever that may at any time (including at any time following the
payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the
Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of, the Commitments,
this Agreement, any of the other Credit Documents or any documents contemplated
by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or
thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under or in
connection with any of the foregoing, PROVIDED that no Lender shall be liable
for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses,
damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements
resulting from the Administrative Agent's gross negligence or willful
misconduct. The agreements in this Section 13.7 shall survive the payment of the
Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

          13.8. ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT IN ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY. The
Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from
and generally engage in any kind of business with Holdings, the Borrower, any
Guarantor, and any other Credit Party as though the Administrative Agent were
not the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Credit Documents.
With respect to the Loans made by it, the Administrative Agent shall have the
same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents as
any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative
Agent, and the terms "Lender" and "Lenders" shall include the Administrative
Agent in its individual capacity.

          13.9. SUCCESSOR AGENT. The Administrative Agent may resign as
Administrative Agent upon 20 days' prior written notice to the Lenders and the
Borrower. If the Administrative Agent shall resign as Administrative Agent under
this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, then the Required Lenders shall
appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders, which
successor agent shall be approved by the Borrower (which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld) so long as no Default or Event of Default is continuing,
where-

                                      -118-

<PAGE>

upon such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of
the Administrative Agent, and the term "Administrative Agent" shall mean such
successor agent effective upon such appointment and approval, and the former
Administrative Agent's rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall
be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such
former Administrative Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement or any
holders of the Loans. After any retiring Administrative Agent's resignation as
Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 12 shall inure to its
benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was
Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents.

          13.10. WITHHOLDING TAX. To the extent required by any applicable law,
the Administrative Agent may withhold from any interest payment to any Lender an
amount equivalent to any applicable withholding tax. If any Governmental
Authority asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly
withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender (because the
appropriate form was not delivered, was not properly executed, or because such
Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstances
which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax ineffective,
or for any other reason), such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent
(to the extent that the Administrative Agent has not already been reimbursed by
the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so) fully
for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as tax
or otherwise, including penalties and interest, together with all expenses
incurred, including legal expenses, allocated staff costs and any out of pocket
expenses.

          13.11. SPECIAL APPOINTMENT OF ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT FOR GERMAN PLEDGE
AGREEMENT.

          (a) (i) Each Lender that is or will become party to this Agreement
     hereby appoints the Administrative Agent as trustee (TREUHAENDER) and
     administrator for the purpose of holding in trust (TREUHAND),
     administering, enforcing and releasing the German Security for the benefit
     of the Secured Parties, (ii) the Administrative Agent accepts its
     appointment as a trustee and administrator of the German Security on the
     terms and subject to the conditions set out in this Agreement and (iii) the
     Lenders, the Administrative Agent and all other parties to this Agreement
     agree that, in relation to the German Security, no Lender shall exercise
     any independent power to enforce any German Security or take any other
     action in relation to the enforcement of the German Security, or make or
     receive any declarations in relation thereto.

          (b) The Administrative Agent shall hold and administer any German
     Security which is security assigned, transferred or pledged under German
     law to it as a trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties.

          (c) Each Lender hereby instructs the Administrative Agent (with the
     right of subdelegation) to enter into any documents evidencing German
     Security and to make and accept all declarations and take all actions as it
     considers necessary or useful in connection with any German Security on
     behalf of the Secured Parties. The Administrative Agent shall further be
     entitled to rescind, release, amend and/or execute new and different
     documents securing the German Security in accordance with Section 14.1.

                                      -119-

<PAGE>

          (d) The Secured Parties and the Administrative Agent agree that all
     rights and claims constituted by the abstract acknowledgement of
     indebtedness pursuant to Section 14.20 and all proceeds held by the
     Administrative Agent pursuant to or in connection with such abstract
     acknowledgement of indebtedness are held by the Administrative Agent with
     effect from the date of such abstract acknowledgement of indebtedness in
     trust for the Secured Parties and will be administered in accordance with
     Section 5.4 of the U.S Security Agreement. The Secured Parties and the
     Administrative Agent agree further that Intelsat Global's obligations under
     such abstract acknowledgement of indebtedness shall not increase the total
     amount of the Intelsat Global Secured Obligations and shall not result in
     any additional liability of Intelsat Global or otherwise prejudice the
     rights of Intelsat Global. Accordingly, payment of the obligations under
     such abstract acknowledgement of indebtedness shall, to the same extent,
     discharge the corresponding Obligations and vice versa.

          13.12. U.K. SECURITY DOCUMENTS. Section 1 of the Trustee Act 2000
shall not apply to the duties of the Administrative Agent in relation to the
trusts constituted by the U.K. Pledge Agreement and the U.K. Security Agreement.
Where there are any inconsistencies between the Trustee Act 1925 or the Trustee
Act 2000 and the provisions of this Agreement and those of the U.K. Pledge
Agreement and the U.K. Security Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement and
those of the U.K. Pledge Agreement and the U.K. Security Agreement shall, to the
extent permitted by law, prevail, and in the case of any inconsistency with the
Trustee Act 2000, the provisions of this Agreement and those of the U.K. Pledge
Agreement and the U.K. Security Agreement shall constitute a restriction or
exclusion for the purposes of that Act.

          SECTION 14. MISCELLANEOUS.

          14.1. AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS. Neither this Agreement nor any other
Credit Document, nor any terms hereof or thereof may be amended, supplemented or

each case without the prior written consent of each Lender directly and
adversely affected thereby, or (vii) release all or substantially all of the
Guarantors under the Guarantee (except as expressly permitted by the Guarantee)
or release all or substantially all of the Collateral under the Pledge
Agreements, the Security Agreements and the Mortgages, in each case without the
prior written consent of each Lender, or (viii) amend Section 2.9 so as to
permit Interest Period intervals greater than six months without regard to
availability to Lenders, without the written consent of each Lender directly and
adversely affected thereby, or (ix) decrease any Repayment Amount, extend any
scheduled Repayment Date or decrease the amount or allocation of any mandatory
prepayment to be received by any Lender holding any Tranche B Term Loans, in
each case without the written consent of the Required Tranche B Term Loan
Lenders; PROVIDED, FURTHER, that (A) no amendment, modification, waiver of or
consent with respect to any of the terms and provisions (and related
definitions) of Section 11 shall be effective without the written consent of the
Requisite Revolving Credit Lenders and (B) only the Requisite Revolving Credit
Lenders (or the Administrative Agent with the prior written consent thereof), on
the one hand, and the Borrower, on the other hand, may amend, supplement or
otherwise modify or waive any of the terms and provisions (and related
definitions) of Section 11. Any such waiver and any such amendment, supplement
or modification shall apply equally to each of the affected Lenders and shall be
binding upon the Borrower, such Lenders, the Administrative Agent and all future
holders of the affected Loans. In the case of any waiver, the Borrower, the
Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall be restored to their former positions
and rights hereunder and under the other Credit Documents, and any Default or
Event of Default waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing, it being
understood that no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default
or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

delay in exercising, on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any
right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under the other Credit Documents

exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.
The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative and

<PAGE>

of its Subsidiaries or any of the Real Estate (all the foregoing in this clause
(d), collectively, the "INDEMNIFIED LIABILITIES"), PROVIDED that the Borrower
shall have no obligation hereunder to the Administrative Agent or any Lender nor
any of their respective directors, officers, employees and agents with respect
to indemnified liabilities to the extent attributable to (i) the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of the party to be indemnified as determined in
a final and non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction or (ii)
disputes among the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and/or their transferees.
The agreements in this Section 14.5 shall survive repayment of the Loans and all
other amounts payable hereunder.

          14.6. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS; PARTICIPATIONS AND ASSIGNMENTS.

          (a) 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 (including any Affiliate of the Letter of Credit Issuer that
issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) the Borrower may not assign or
otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior
written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the
Borrower or without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may
assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in
accordance with this Section 14.6. 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 (including any
Affiliate of the Letter of Credit Issuer that issues any Letter of Credit),
Participants (to the extent provided in paragraph (c) of this Section 14.6) and,
to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the
Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer and the Lenders) any legal or
equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

          (b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii)
below, any Lender may 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
Commitments and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written
consent (such consent not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; it being
understood that, without limitation, the Borrower shall have the right to
withhold its consent to any assignment if, in order for such assignment to
comply with applicable law, the Borrower would be required to obtain the consent
of, or make any filing or registration with, any Governmental Authority) of:

          (A) the Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or
     delayed), PROVIDED that no consent of the Borrower shall be required for an
     assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender (unless increased costs
     would result therefrom except if an Event of Default under Section 12.1 or
     Section 12.5 has occurred and is continuing), an Approved Fund or, if an
     Event of Default under Section 12.1 or Section 12.5 has occurred and is
     continuing, any other assignee; and

          (B) the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably
     withheld or delayed), and, in the case of Revolving Credit Commitments or
     Revolving Credit Loans only, the Swingline Lender and the applicable Letter
     of Credit Issuer, PROVIDED that no consent of the Administrative Agent, the
     Swingline Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer, as applicable, shall be
     required for an assignment of (1) any Commitment to an assignee that is a
     Lender with a Commitment of the same Class immediately prior to giv-

                                      -124-

<PAGE>

     ing effect to such assignment or (2) any Term Loan to a Lender, an
     Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund.

          (ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional
conditions:

          (A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a
     Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of the entire remaining amount
     of the assigning Lender's Commitment or Loans of any Class, the amount of
     the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such
     assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with
     respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall
     not be less than $5,000,000 (or, in the case of a Tranche B Term Loan
     Commitment or Tranche B Term Loan, $1,000,000), and increments of
     $1,000,000 in excess thereof, unless each of the Borrower and the
     Administrative Agent otherwise consents (which consents shall not be
     unreasonably withheld or delayed), PROVIDED that no such consent of the
     Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default under Section 12.1 or
     Section 12.5 has occurred and is continuing; PROVIDED, FURTHER, that
     contemporaneous assignments to a single assignee made by Affiliates of
     Lenders and related Approved Funds shall be aggregated for purposes of
     meeting the minimum assignment amount requirements stated above;

          (B) 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, PROVIDED that this clause shall not be construed to
     prohibit the assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning
     Lender's rights and obligations in respect of one Class of Commitments or
     Loans;

          (C) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the
     Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a
     processing and recordation fee of $3,500, PROVIDED that only one such fee
     shall be payable in the event of simultaneous assignments to or from two or
     more Approved Funds; and

          (D) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the
     Administrative Agent an administrative questionnaire in a form approved by
     the Administrative Agent (the "ADMINISTRATIVE QUESTIONNAIRE").

          For the purpose of this Section 14.6(b), the term "APPROVED FUND"
means any Person (other than a natural person) that is engaged in making,
purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit
in the ordinary course and that is administered, advised or managed by (a) a
Lender, (b) an Affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an
entity that administers, advises or manages a Lender.

          (iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to
paragraph (b)(v) of this Section 14.6, from and after the effective date
specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, the assignee thereunder shall be a
party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and
Acceptance, 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 Acceptance, be released from its obligations
under this Agreement (and, in the

                                      -125-

<PAGE>

case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning Lender's
rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a
party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.10,
2.11, 3.5, 5.4 and 14.5). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or
obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 14.6
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 paragraph (c) of
this Section 14.6.

          (iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of
the Borrower shall maintain at the Administrative Agent's Office a copy of each
Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of
the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal
amount of the Loans and any payment made by the Letter of Credit Issuer under
any Letter of Credit owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from
time to time (the "REGISTER"). Further, the Register shall contain the name and
address of the Administrative Agent and the lending office through which each
such Person acts under this Agreement. The entries in the Register shall be
conclusive, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit
Issuer 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, the Letter of Credit Issuer and any
Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior
notice.

          (v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance
executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee's completed
Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender
hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of
this Section 14.6 and any written consent to such assignment required by
paragraph (b) of this Section 14.6, the Administrative Agent shall accept such
Assignment and Acceptance and record the information contained therein in the
Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless
it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

          (c) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower, the
Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer or the Swingline Lender, sell
participations to one or more banks or other entities (each, a "PARTICIPANT") in
all or a portion of such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement
(including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans owing to it),
PROVIDED that (A) such Lender's obligations under this Agreement shall remain
unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties
hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Borrower, the
Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer and the other Lenders shall
continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such
Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement. 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
or any other Credit Document, PROVIDED that such agreement or instrument may
provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree
to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to
Section 14.1 that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this
Section 14.6, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the
benefits of Sections 2.10, 2.11 and 5.4

                                      -126-

<PAGE>

to the same extent as if it were a Lender (subject to the requirements of those
Sections) and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b)
of this Section 14.6. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also
shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 14.8(b) as though it were a Lender,
PROVIDED such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 14.8(a) as though it
were a Lender.

          (ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater
payment under Section 2.10 or 5.4 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 (which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld).

          (d) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the
Administrative Agent, at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or
any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such
Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal
Reserve Bank, and this Section 14.6 shall not apply to any such pledge or
assignment of a security interest, PROVIDED that no such pledge or assignment of
a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder
or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. In
order to facilitate such pledge or assignment, the Borrower hereby agrees that,
upon request of any Lender at any time and from time to time after the Borrower
has made its initial borrowing hereunder, the Borrower shall provide to such
Lender, at the Borrower's own expense, a promissory note, substantially in the
form of EXHIBIT L-1 or L-2, as the case may be, evidencing the Tranche B Term
Loans and Increased Tranche B Term Loans, and Revolving Credit Loans and
Swingline Loans, respectively, owing to such Lender.

          (e) Subject to Section 14.16, the Borrower authorizes each Lender to
disclose to any Participant, secured creditor of such Lender or assignee (each,
a "TRANSFEREE") and any prospective Transferee any and all financial information
in such Lender's possession concerning the Borrower and its Affiliates that has
been delivered to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower and its Affiliates
pursuant to this Agreement or which has been delivered to such Lender by or on
behalf of the Borrower and its Affiliates in connection with such Lender's
credit evaluation of the Borrower and its Affiliates prior to becoming a party
to this Agreement.

          14.7. REPLACEMENTS OF LENDERS UNDER CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES.

          (a) The Borrower shall be permitted to replace any Lender that (a)
requests reimbursement for amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.10, 2.12, 3.5 or
5.4, (b) is affected in the manner described in Section 2.10(a)(iii) and as a
result thereof any of the actions described in such Section is required to be
taken or (c) becomes a Defaulting Lender, with a replacement bank or other
financial institution, PROVIDED that (i) such replacement does not conflict with
any Requirement of Law, (ii) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing at the time of such replacement, (iii) the Borrower shall repay (or
the replacement bank or institution shall purchase, at par) all Loans and other
amounts (other than any disputed amounts), pursuant to Section 2.10, 2.11, 2.12,
3.5 or 5.4, as the case may be) owing to such replaced Lender prior to the date
of replacement, (iv) the replacement bank or institution, if not already a
Lender, and the terms and conditions of such replacement, shall be reasonably
satisfactory to the Administrative

                                      -127-

<PAGE>

Agent, (v) the replaced Lender shall be obligated to make such replacement in
accordance with the provisions of Section 14.6 (PROVIDED that the Borrower shall
be obligated to pay the registration and processing fee referred to therein) and
(vi) any such replacement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any rights that
the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender shall have against
the replaced Lender.

          (b) If any Lender (such Lender, a "NON-CONSENTING LENDER") has failed
to consent to a proposed amendment, waiver, discharge or termination which
pursuant to the terms of Section 14.1 requires the consent of all of the Lenders
affected and with respect to which the Required Lenders shall have granted their
consent, then provided no Event of Default other than an Event of Default
relating to the proposed amendment, waiver, discharge or termination at issue
then exists, the Borrower shall have the right (unless such Non-Consenting
Lender grants such consent) to replace such Non-Consenting Lender by deeming
such Non-Consenting Lender to have assigned its Loans, and its Commitments
hereunder to one or more assignees reasonably acceptable to the Administrative
Agent, PROVIDED that: (a) all Obligations of the Borrower owing to such
Non-Consenting Lender being replaced shall be paid in full to such
Non-Consenting Lender concurrently with such assignment, and (b) the replacement
Lender shall purchase the foregoing by paying to such Non-Consenting Lender a
price equal to the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest
thereon. No action by or consent of the Non-Consenting Lender shall be necessary
in connection with such assignment, which shall be immediately and automatically
effective upon payment of such purchase price. In connection with any such
assignment, the Borrower, Administrative Agent, such Non-Consenting Lender and
the replacement Lender shall otherwise comply with Section 14.6.

          14.8. ADJUSTMENTS; SET-OFF.

          (a) If any Lender (a "BENEFITED LENDER") shall at any time receive any
payment of all or part of its Loans, or interest thereon, or receive any
collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off,
pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 12.5, or
otherwise), in a greater proportion than any such payment to or collateral
received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of such other Lender's Loans,
or interest thereon, such benefited Lender shall purchase for cash from the
other Lenders a participating interest in such portion of each such other
Lender's Loan, or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such
collateral, or the proceeds thereof, as shall be necessary to cause such
benefited Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral or
proceeds ratably with each of the Lenders; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if all or any
portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such
benefited Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and
benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.

          (b) After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default, in addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law,
each Lender shall have the right, without prior notice to the Borrower, any such
notice being expressly waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by
applicable law, upon any amount becoming due and payable by the Borrower
hereunder (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) to
set-off and appropriate and apply against such amount any and all deposits
(general or special, time or

                                      -128-

demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits,
indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or
indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or
owing by such Lender or any branch or agency thereof to or for the credit or the
account of the Borrower. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and
the Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application made by such

the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts (including
by facsimile or other electronic transmission), and all of said counterparts

of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties shall be lodged with
the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

          14.10. SEVERABILITY. Any provision of this Agreement that is
prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction,
be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without
invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or
unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render
unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

          14.11. INTEGRATION. This Agreement and the other Credit Documents
represent the agreement of Holdings, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and
the Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof, and there are no

     or at such other address of which the Administrative Agent shall have been
     notified pursuant thereto;

          (iv) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect
     service of process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the
     right to sue in any other jurisdiction; and

attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise)
with respect to itself or any of its property or assets, hereby waives and
agrees not to plead or claim such immunity in respect of its obligations under
this Agreement and the other Credit Documents (it being understood that the

          (b) neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender has any fiduciary
     relationship with or duty to Holdings or the Borrower arising out of or in
     connection with this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents, and
     the relationship between Administrative Agent and Lenders, on one hand, and
     Holdings and the Borrower, on the other hand, in connection herewith or
     therewith is solely that of debtor and creditor; and

OPLOANSWEBADMIN@CITIGROUP.COM. Nothing in this Section 14.17 shall prejudice the
right of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any Lender to give any notice
or other communication pursuant to any Credit Document in any other manner
specified in such Credit Document.

                                      -131-

<PAGE>

          (ii) The Administrative Agent agrees that the receipt of the
Communications by the Agent at its e-mail address set forth above shall
constitute effective delivery of the Communications to the Agent for purposes of
the Credit Documents. Each Lender agrees that notice to it (as provided in the
next sentence) specifying that the Communications have been posted to the
Platform shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to such
Lender for purposes of the Credit Documents. Each Lender agrees (A) to notify
the Administrative Agent in writing (including by electronic communication) from
time to time of such Lender's e-mail address to which the foregoing notice may
be sent by electronic transmission and (B) that the foregoing notice may be sent
to such e-mail address.

          (b) POSTING. The Borrower further agrees that the Administrative Agent
may make the Communications available to the Lenders by posting the
Communications on Intralinks or a substantially similar electronic transmission
system (the "PLATFORM"), so long as the access to such Platform is limited (i)
to the Agents and the Lenders and (ii) remains subject the confidentiality
requirements set forth in Section 14.16.

          (c) The Platform is provided "as is" and "as available." The Agent
Parties do not warrant the accuracy or completeness of the Communications, or
the adequacy of the platform and expressly disclaim liability for errors or
omissions in the Communications. No warranty of any kind, express, implied or
statutory, including, without limitation, any warranty of merchantability,
fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third party rights or
freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made by the Agent Parties in
connection with the Communications or the platform. In no event shall the
Administrative Agent or any of its affiliates or any of their respective
officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors or representatives
(collectively, "AGENT PARTIES") have any liability to the Borrower, any Lender
or any other person or entity for damages of any kind, including, without
limitation, direct or indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages,
losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of the
Borrower's or the Administrative Agent's transmission of Communications through
the internet, except to the extent the liability of any Agent Party is found in
a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have
resulted primarily from such Agent Party's gross negligence or willful
misconduct.

          14.18. USA PATRIOT ACT. Each Lender hereby notifies Holdings and the
Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of
Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the "PATRIOT ACT"), it is
required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies Holdings and
the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of Holdings and
the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender to identify
Holdings and the Borrower in accordance with the Patriot Act.

          14.19. CONVERSION OF CURRENCIES.

          (a) If, for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court, it is
necessary to convert a sum owing hereunder in one currency into another
currency, each party hereto agrees, to the fullest extent that it may
effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in
accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction the first
currency could be purchased with such other currency on the Business Day
immediately preceding the day on which final judgment is given.

                                      -132-

<PAGE>

          (b) The obligations of the Borrower in respect of any sum due to any
party hereto or any holder of the obligations owing hereunder (the "APPLICABLE
CREDITOR") shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the "JUDGMENT
CURRENCY") other than the currency in which such sum is stated to be due
hereunder (the "AGREEMENT CURRENCY"), be discharged only to the extent that, on
the Business Day following receipt by the Applicable Creditor of any sum
adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Applicable Creditor may in
accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction purchase
the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency; if the amount of the
Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the
Applicable Creditor in the Agreement Currency, the Borrower agrees, as a
separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the
Applicable Creditor against such loss. The obligations of the Borrower contained
in this Section 14.19 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the
payment of all other amounts owing hereunder.

          (c) For purposes of this Agreement, the Dollar Equivalent of the
Stated Amount of any Letter of Credit shall be calculated on the date when such
Letter of Credit is issued, on the first Business Day of each month and at such
other times as designated by the Administrative Agent. Such Dollar Equivalent
shall remain in effect until the same is recalculated by the Administrative
Agent as provided above and notice of such recalculation is received by the
Borrower, it being understood that until such notice is received, the Dollar
Equivalent shall be as last reported by the Administrative Agent to the
Borrower. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower of each
such determination of Dollar Equivalents.

          14.20. ABSTRACT ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF INDEBTEDNESS AND JOINT CREDITORSHIP.

          (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Intelsat
Global hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees and covenants with the
Administrative Agent by way of an abstract acknowledgement of indebtedness that
it owes to the Administrative Agent as creditor in its own right and not as a
representative of the Secured Parties, sums equal to, and in the currency of,
each and every obligation of Intelsat Global under this Agreement and the other
Credit Documents (the "INTELSAT GLOBAL SECURED OBLIGATIONS"), as and when that
amount falls due for payment. The Administrative Agent shall be the joint
creditor (together with the Secured Parties) of all obligations of Intelsat
Global towards each of the Secured Parties in respect of the Intelsat Global
Secured Obligations.

          (b) Intelsat Global undertakes to pay to the Administrative Agent upon
first written demand after the amount payable by Intelsat Global to each of the
Secured Parties with respect to the Intelsat Global Secured Obligations has
become due and payable.

          (c) The Administrative Agent has the independent right to demand and
receive full or partial payment of the amounts payable by Intelsat Global under
this Section 14.20, irrespective of any discharge of Intelsat Global's
obligation to pay those amounts to the other Secured Parties resulting from
failure by them to take appropriate steps, in insolvency proceedings affecting
Intelsat Global, to preserve their entitlement to be paid those amounts.

          (d) Any amount due and payable by Intelsat Global to the
Administrative Agent under this Section 14.20 shall be decreased to the extent
that the Secured Parties have re-

                                      -133-

<PAGE>

ceived (and are able to retain) payment in full of the corresponding amount in
respect of the Intelsat Global Secured Obligations and any amount due and
payable by Intelsat Global to the Secured Parties under those provisions shall
be decreased to the extent that the Administrative Agent has received (and is
able to retain) payment in full of the corresponding amount under this Section
14.20, PROVIDED that Intelsat Global may not consider its obligations towards a
Secured Party to be so discharged by virtue of any set-off, counterclaim or
similar defence that it may invoke vis-a-vis the Administrative Agent.

          (e) The rights of the Secured Parties (other than the Administrative
Agent) to receive payment of amounts payable by Intelsat Global in respect of
the Intelsat Global Secured Obligations are several and are separate and
independent from, and without prejudice to, the rights of the Administrative
Agent to receive payment under this Section 14.20.

          14.21. CERTAIN COLLATERAL AND GUARANTEE MATTERS.

          (a) The Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent, at its
option and in its discretion, to release any Lien granted to or held by the
Administrative Agent upon any Collateral (i) upon termination of the Commitments
and payment and satisfaction of all of the Obligations at any time arising under
or in respect of this Agreement or the Credit Documents or the transactions
contemplated hereby or thereby (other than those arising from indemnities for
which no claim has been made), (ii) constituting property being sold or disposed
of (to Persons other than the Borrower and the Guarantors) upon the sale thereof
in compliance with, or as otherwise permitted in connection with a transaction
permitted under, this Agreement or (iii) if approved, authorized or ratified in
writing by the Required Lenders (or all Lenders, if such release is required to
be approved by all of the Lenders hereunder). Upon request by the Administrative
Agent at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative
Agent's authority to release particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to
this Section 14.21.

          (b) Upon any sale and transfer of Collateral which is expressly
permitted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, or consented to in writing by
the Required Lenders, or all of the Lenders, as applicable, and upon at least
five Business Days' (or such shorter period as is reasonably acceptable to the
Administrative Agent) prior written request by the Borrower, the Administrative
Agent shall (and is hereby irrevocably authorized by the Lenders to) execute
such documents as may be necessary to evidence the release of the Liens granted
to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties herein or
pursuant hereto upon the Collateral that was sold or transferred, provided that
(i) the Administrative Agent shall not be required to execute any such document
on terms which, in the Administrative Agent's reasonable opinion, would expose
the Administrative Agent to liability or create any obligation or entail any
consequence other than the release of such Liens without recourse,
representation or warranty and (ii) such release shall not in any manner
discharge, affect or impair the Obligations or any Liens upon (or obligations of
Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries in respect of) all interests retained by
Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries, including, without limitation, the proceeds
of the sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral.
In the event of any foreclosure or similar enforcement action with respect to
any of the Collateral, the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to deduct
all of the costs and expenses reasonably incurred by the Administrative Agent
from the proceeds of any such sale, transfer or foreclosure.

          SECTION 15. HOLDINGS GUARANTEE.

          15.1. THE HOLDINGS GUARANTEE. In order to induce the Agents and the
Lenders to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit hereunder, to induce
Lenders or any of their respective Affiliates to enter into the Hedge
Agreements, and in recognition of the direct benefits to be received by Holdings
from the proceeds of the Loans, the issuance of the Letters of Credit, and the
entering into of Hedge Agreements, Holdings hereby agrees with the Secured
Parties as follows: Holdings hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees
as primary obligor and not merely as surety the full and prompt payment when
due, whether upon maturity, acceleration or otherwise, of any and all of the
Obligations of the Borrower to the Secured Parties. If any or all of the
Obligations of the Borrower to the Secured Parties becomes due and payable
hereunder, Holdings irrevocably and unconditionally promises to pay such
indebtedness to the Secured Parties, or order, on demand, together with any and
all expenses which may be incurred by the Secured Parties in collecting any of
the Obligations. This Holdings Guarantee is a guaranty of payment and not of
collection. If claim is ever made upon any Secured Party for repayment or
recovery of any amount or amounts received in payment or on account of any of
the Obligations and any of the aforesaid payees repays all or part of said
amount by reason of (i) any judgment, decree or order of any court or
administrative body having jurisdiction over such payee or any of its property
or (ii) any settlement or compromise of any such claim effected in good faith by
such payee with any such claimant (including the Borrower), then and in such
event Holdings agrees that any such judgment, decree, order, settlement or
compromise shall be binding upon it, notwithstanding any revocation of this
Holdings Guarantee or other instrument evidencing any liability of the Borrower,
and Holdings shall be and remain liable to the aforesaid payees hereunder for
the amount so repaid or recovered to the same extent as if such amount had never
originally been received by any such payee.

          15.2. BANKRUPTCY. Additionally, Holdings unconditionally and
irrevocably guarantees the payment of any and all of the Obligations of the
Borrower to the Secured Parties whether or not due or payable by the Borrower
upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under Section 12.5, and
unconditionally promises to pay such indebtedness to the Secured Parties, or
order, on demand, in lawful money of the United States.

          15.3. NATURE OF LIABILITY.

          (a) The liability of Holdings hereunder is exclusive and independent
of any security for or other guaranty of the Obligations of the Borrower whether
executed by any other guarantor or by any other party, and the liability of
Holdings hereunder shall not be affected or impaired by (i) any direction as to
application of payment by the Borrower or by any other party, or (ii) any other
continuing or other guaranty, undertaking or maximum liability of a guarantor or
of any other party as to the Obligations of the Borrower, or (iii) any payment
on or in reduction of any such other guaranty or undertaking, or (iv) any
dissolution, termination or increase, decrease or change in personnel by the
Borrower, or (v) any payment made to any Secured Party on the Obligations which
any such Secured Party repays to the Borrower pursuant to court order in any
bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium or other debtor relief
proceeding, and Holdings waives any right to the deferral or modification of its
obligations hereunder by reason

                                      -135-

<PAGE>

of any such proceeding, or (vi) the lack of validity or enforceability of any
Credit Document or any instrument relating thereto.

          (b) The liability of Holdings shall not be affected nor shall this
Holdings Guarantee be discharged or reduced by reason of:

          (i) the incapacity or any change in the name, style or constitution of
     the Borrower or any other person liable;

          (ii) the Administrative Agent granting any time, indulgence or
     concession to, or compounding with, discharging, releasing or varying the
     liability of, the Borrower or any other person liable or renewing,
     determining, varying or increasing any accommodation, facility or
     transaction or otherwise dealing with the same in any manner whatsoever or
     concurring in, accepting or varying any compromise, arrangement or
     settlement or omitting to claim or enforce payment from the Borrower or any
     other person liable;

          (iii) any novation of any Credit Document (including, without
     limitation, any novation arising on the amalgamation of companies); or

          (iv) any act or omission which would not have discharged or affected
     the liability of Holdings had it been a principal debtor instead of a
     guarantor or by anything done or omitted which but for this provision might
     operate to exonerate or discharge Holdings.

          15.4. INDEPENDENT OBLIGATIONS. The obligations of Holdings hereunder
are independent of the obligations of any other guarantor, any other party or
the Borrower, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted
against Holdings whether or not action is brought against any other guarantor,
any other party or the Borrower and whether or not any other guarantor, any
other party or the Borrower be joined in any such action or actions. Holdings
waives, to the full extent permitted by law, the benefit of any statute of
limitations affecting its liability hereunder or the enforcement thereof. Any
payment by the Borrower or other circumstance which operates to toll any statute
of limitations as to the Borrower shall operate to toll the statute of
limitations as to Holdings.

          15.5. AUTHORIZATION. Holdings authorizes the Secured Parties without
notice or demand (except as shall be required by applicable statute and cannot
be waived), and without affecting or impairing its liability hereunder, from
time to time to:

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

          (b) take and hold security for the payment of the Obligations and
     sell, exchange, release, surrender, realize upon or otherwise deal with in
     any manner and in any order any property by whomsoever at any time pledged
     or mortgaged to secure, or how-

                                      -136-

<PAGE>

     soever securing, the Obligations or any liabilities (including any of those
     hereunder) incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof or hereof,
     and/or any offset there against;

          (c) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against the
     Borrower, any other Credit Party or others or otherwise act or refrain from
     acting;

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

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

          (f) apply any sums by whomsoever paid or howsoever realized to any
     liability or liabilities of the Borrower to the Secured Parties regardless
     of what liability or liabilities of Holdings or the Borrower remain unpaid;

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

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

          (i) release any collateral security for the Obligations; and/or

          (j) change its corporate structure.

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

          15.7. SUBORDINATION. Any of the indebtedness of the Borrower now or
hereafter owing to Holdings is hereby subordinated to the Obligations of the
Borrower owing to the Secured Parties; and if the Administrative Agent so
requests at a time when an Event of Default exists, all such indebtedness of the
Borrower to Holdings shall be collected, enforced and received by Holdings for
the benefit of the Secured Parties and be paid over to the Administrative Agent
on behalf of the Secured Parties on account of the Obligations of the Borrower
to the Secured Parties, but without affecting or impairing in any manner the
liability of Holdings under the other provisions of this Holdings Guarantee.
Prior to the transfer by Holdings of any note or negotiable instrument
evidencing any of the indebtedness of the Borrower to Holdings, Holdings shall
mark such note or negotiable instrument with a legend that the same is subject
to this sub-

                                      -137-

<PAGE>

ordination. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Holdings hereby
agrees with the Secured Parties that it will not exercise any right of
subrogation which it may at any time otherwise have as a result of this Holdings
Guarantee (whether contractual, under Section 509 of the Bankruptcy Code or
otherwise) until all Obligations have been irrevocably paid in full in cash.

          15.8. WAIVERS.

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

          (b) Holdings waives all presentments, demands for performance,
protests and notices, including, without limitation, notices of nonperformance,
notices of protest, notices of dishonor, notices of acceptance of this Holdings
Guarantee, and notices of the existence, creation or incurring of new or
additional Obligations. Holdings assumes all responsibility for being and
keeping itself informed of the Borrower's financial condition and assets, and of
all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Obligations
and the nature, scope and extent of the risks which Holdings assumes and incurs
hereunder, and agrees that neither the Agents nor any Lender shall have any duty
to advise Holdings of information known to them regarding such circumstances or
risks.

          (c) Holdings warrants and agrees that each of the waivers set forth
above is made with full knowledge of its significance and consequences and that
if any of such waivers are determined to be contrary to any applicable law or
public policy, such waivers shall be effective only to the maximum extent
permitted by law.

          15.9. MAXIMUM LIABILITY. It is the desire and intent of Holdings and
the Secured Parties that this Holdings Guarantee shall be enforced against
Holdings to the fullest extent permissible under the laws and public policies
applied in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought. If, however, and to
the extent that, the obligations of Holdings under this Holdings Guarantee shall
be adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason (including, without

                                      -138-

limitation, because of any applicable state or federal law relating to
fraudulent conveyances or transfers), then the amount of the Obligations of
Holdings shall be deemed to be reduced and Holdings shall pay the maximum amount
of the Obligations which would be permissible under applicable law.

          15.10. HOLDINGS GUARANTEE RELEASE. Upon the consummation of any
Holdings Dropdown Transaction or Holdings-Borrower Merger, the parties hereto
agree that Predecessor Holdings or Pre-Merger Holdings (as applicable) shall be
released from the Holdings Guarantee and from all other covenants and
obligations of Holdings under this agreement and the Administrative Agent shall,
at Borrower's expense, take all actions reasonably requested by Borrower or
Predecessor Holdings to evidence such release; PROVIDED that Successor Holdings
or Replacement Holdings (as applicable) shall guarantee the Obligations and
shall otherwise assume and succeed to the obligations of Holdings hereunder, all
in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

          SECTION 16. CONDITION SUBSEQUENT. It shall be a condition subsequent
to the effectiveness of this Agreement that Holdings pledge all of the capital
stock of the Borrower to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured
Parties and that the Acquisition occur, in each case on the Closing Date,
pursuant to the Bermuda Pledge Agreement and the Acquisition Agreement,
respectively.

          It is hereby acknowledged that, upon the instant of effectiveness of
this Agreement, Holdings does not own the capital stock of the Borrower and the
Acquisition will not have occurred, but Holdings shall become the owner of such
capital stock and the Acquisition shall occur contemporaneously with the
effectiveness hereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement or any other Credit Document, so long as Holdings so becomes the owner
of the capital stock of the Borrower and fulfills the condition subsequent set
forth in this Section 16 and the Acquisition so occurs, the failure of Holdings
to own the capital stock of Borrower (and to pledge such capital stock) and the
pendancy of the Acquisition upon the instant of effectiveness shall not
constitute a Default or an Event of Default, a breach of any representation or
warranty or a failure to satisfy any condition precedent under this Agreement or
any other Credit Document.

                                     -139-

          IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each of the parties hereto has caused a
counterpart of this Agreement to be duly executed and delivered as of the date
first above written.

     to the holders of Capital Stock of such Person or any Parent of such Person

Capital Stock of such Person or any Parent of such Person in respect of such

           For purposes hereof, the "MAXIMUM FIXED REPURCHASE price" of any
Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock that does not have a fixed price shall be
calculated in accordance with the terms of such Disqualified Stock or Preferred
Stock as if such Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock were purchased on any
date on which Consolidated Total Indebtedness shall be required to be determined
pursuant to this Agreement, and if such price is based upon, or measured by, the

Directors of the Borrower.

           "CONTINGENT OBLIGATIONS" shall mean, with respect to any Person, any
obligation of such Person guaranteeing any leases, dividends or other
obligations that do not constitute Indebtedness ("PRIMARY OBLIGATIONS") of any
other Person (the "PRIMARY OBLIGOR") in any manner, whether directly or
indirectly, including, without limitation, any obligation of such Person,
whether or not contingent:

     loss in respect thereof.

           "CONTRIBUTION INDEBTEDNESS" shall mean Indebtedness of the Borrower
or any Restricted Subsidiary in an aggregate principal amount not greater than
twice the aggregate amount of cash contributions (other than Excluded

     case to the extent that the designation of such Subsidiary as an
     Unrestricted Subsidiary was made pursuant to Section 10.2(b)(vii) or (x) or

           of $100.0 million, shall be set forth in a resolution approved by at
           least a majority of the Board of Directors of the Borrower.

           "CUMULATIVE INTEREST EXPENSE" shall mean, in respect of any
Restricted Payment, the sum of the aggregate amount of Consolidated Interest
Expense of the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries for the period from and
after January 1, 2005 to the end of the Borrower's

                                       -14-
<PAGE>

most recently ended fiscal quarter for which internal financial statements are
available and immediately preceding the proposed Restricted Payment.

           "DEBT TO ADJUSTED EBITDA RATIO" shall mean, with respect to any
Person for any period, the ratio of (i) Consolidated Total Indebtedness as of
the date of calculation (the "CALCULATION DATE") to (ii) Adjusted EBITDA of such
Person for the four consecutive fiscal quarters immediately preceding such
Calculation Date. In the event that such Person or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries Incurs or redeems any Indebtedness (other than in the case of
revolving credit borrowings, in which case interest expense shall be computed
based upon the average daily balance of such Indebtedness during the applicable
period) or issues or redeems Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock subsequent to
the commencement of the period for which the Debt to Adjusted EBITDA Ratio is
being calculated but prior to the Calculation Date, then the Debt to Adjusted
EBITDA Ratio shall be calculated giving pro forma effect to such Incurrence or
redemption of Indebtedness, or such issuance or redemption of Disqualified Stock
or Preferred Stock, as if the same had occurred at the beginning of the
applicable four-quarter period.

           For purposes of making the computation referred to above,
Investments, acquisitions, dispositions, mergers, amalgamations, consolidations
and discontinued operations (as determined in accordance with GAAP), in each
case with respect to an operating unit of a business, and other operational
changes that such Person or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries has both
determined to make and made after January 28, 2005 and during the four-quarter
reference period or subsequent to such reference period and on or prior to or
simultaneously with the Calculation Date shall be calculated on a pro forma
basis assuming that all such Investments, acquisitions, dispositions, mergers,
amalgamations, consolidations, discontinued operations and other operational
changes (and the change of any associated fixed charge obligations and the
change in Adjusted EBITDA resulting therefrom) had occurred on the first day of
the four-quarter reference period. If since the beginning of such period any
Person that subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged with or
into such Person or any Restricted Subsidiary since the beginning of such period
shall have made any Investment, acquisition, disposition, merger, amalgamation,
consolidation, discontinued operation or operational change, in each case with
respect to an operating unit of a business, that would have required adjustment
pursuant to this definition, then the Debt to Adjusted EBITDA Ratio shall be
calculated giving pro forma effect thereto for such period as if such
Investment, acquisition, disposition, discontinued operation, merger,
amalgamation, consolidation or operational change had occurred at the beginning
of the applicable four-quarter period.

           For purposes of this definition, whenever pro forma effect is to be
given to any transaction, the pro forma calculations shall be made in good faith
by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Borrower. If any
Indebtedness bears a floating rate of interest and is being given pro forma
effect, the interest on such Indebtedness shall be calculated as if the rate in
effect on the Calculation Date had been the applicable rate for the entire
period (taking into account any Hedging Obligations applicable to such
Indebtedness if such Hedging Obligation has a remaining term in excess of 12
months). Interest on a Capitalized Lease Obligation shall be deemed to accrue at
an interest rate reasonably determined by a responsible financial or accounting
officer of the Borrower to be the rate of interest implicit in such Capitalized
Lease Obligation in accordance with GAAP. For purposes of making the computation
referred to above, interest

                                       -15-
<PAGE>

on any Indebtedness under a revolving credit facility computed on a pro forma
basis shall be computed based upon the average daily balance of such
Indebtedness during the applicable period. Interest on Indebtedness that may
optionally be determined at an interest rate based upon a factor of a prime or
similar rate, a eurocurrency interbank offered rate, or other rate, shall be
deemed to have been based upon the rate actually chosen, or, if none, then based
upon such optional rate chosen as the Borrower may designate. Any such pro forma
calculation may include adjustments appropriate, in the reasonable determination
of the Borrower as set forth in an Officers' Certificate, to reflect, among
other things, (1) operating expense reductions and other operating improvements
or synergies reasonably expected to result from any acquisition, amalgamation,
merger or operational change (including, to the extent applicable, from the
Transactions) and (2) all adjustments used in connection with the calculation of
"Adjusted EBITDA" as set forth in footnote 4 to the "Summary Historical and Pro
Forma Consolidated Financial Data" under "Offering Memorandum Summary" in the
Offering Memorandum to the extent such adjustments, without duplication,
continue to be applicable to such four-quarter period.

           "DEFAULT" shall mean any event which is, or after notice or passage
of time, or both, would be an Event of Default.

           "DEFAULTING LENDER" shall mean any Lender with respect to which a
Lender Default is in effect.

Subsidiaries in connection with an Asset Sale that is so designated as
Designated Non-cash Consideration pursuant to an Officers' Certificate, setting
forth the basis of such valuation, less the amount of Cash Equivalents received
in connection with a subsequent sale of such Designated Non-cash Consideration.

           "DESIGNATED PREFERRED STOCK" shall mean Preferred Stock of the
Borrower, its Restricted Subsidiaries or any Parent of the Borrower or its
Restricted Subsidiaries, as applicable (other than Disqualified Stock), that is
issued for cash (other than to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or an
employee stock ownership plan or trust established by the Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries) and is so designated as Designated Preferred Stock, pursuant to an
Officers' Certificate, on the issuance date thereof, the cash proceeds of which
are excluded from the calculation set forth in the definition of "Cumulative
Credit."

           "DISQUALIFIED STOCK" shall mean, with respect to any Person, any
Capital Stock of such Person which, by its terms (or by the terms of any
security into which it is convertible or for which it is redeemable or
exchangeable), or upon the happening of any event:

           (1) matures or is mandatorily redeemable, pursuant to a sinking fund
     obligation or otherwise (other than as a result of a change of control or
     asset sale; PROVIDED that the relevant asset sale or change of control
     provisions, taken as a whole, are no more favorable in any material respect
     to holders of such Capital Stock than the asset sale and change of control
     provisions applicable to the Exchange Notes and any purchase requirement
     triggered thereby may not become operative until compliance with the asset
     sale and change of control provisions applicable to the Exchange Notes
     (including the purchase of any notes tendered pursuant thereto)),

                                       -16-

           (2) is convertible or exchangeable for Indebtedness or Disqualified
     Stock, or

           (3) is redeemable at the option of the holder thereof, in whole or in
     part, in each case prior to 91 days after the maturity date of the Exchange
     Notes;

PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that only the portion of Capital Stock which so matures or is
mandatorily redeemable, is so convertible or exchangeable or is so redeemable at
the option of the holder thereof prior to such date shall be deemed to be
Disqualified Stock; PROVIDED, FURTHER, HOWEVER, that if such Capital Stock is
issued to any employee or to any plan for the benefit of employees of the
Borrower or its Subsidiaries or by any such plan to such employees, such Capital
Stock shall not constitute Disqualified Stock solely because it may be required
to be repurchased by the Borrower in order to satisfy applicable statutory or
regulatory obligations or as a result of such employee's termination, death or
disability; PROVIDED, FURTHER, that any class of Capital Stock of such Person
that by its terms authorizes such Person to satisfy its obligations thereunder
by delivery of Capital Stock that is not Disqualified Stock shall not be deemed
to be Disqualified Stock.

           "DOLLAR EQUIVALENT" shall mean, on any date of determination, (a)
with respect to any amount denominated in Dollars, such amount, and (b) with
respect to any amount denominated in any Foreign Currency, the equivalent in
Dollars of such amount, determined by the Administrative Agent using the
applicable Exchange Rate.

principal or interest payments on the Loans) and the other agreements entered
into in connection therewith on or prior to the Closing Date.

           "ENVIRONMENTAL CLAIMS" shall mean any and all actions, suits, orders,
decrees, demands, demand letters, claims, liens, notices of noncompliance,

a financing transaction or an acquisition or disposition of real estate) or
proceedings relating in any way to any Environmental Law or any permit issued,

other actions or damages pursuant to any applicable Environmental Law and (ii)
any and all Claims by any third party seeking damages, contribution,
indemnification, cost recovery, compensation or injunctive relief relating to

     then such designation would be permitted under Section 10.2.

           The Board of Directors of the Borrower may designate any Unrestricted
Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that immediately
after giving effect to such designation no Event of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing and either (1) the Borrower could Incur $1.00 of additional
Indebtedness pursuant to the Debt to Adjusted EBITDA Ratio test described in
Section 10.1(a) or (2) the Debt to Adjusted EBITDA Ratio for the Borrower and
its Restricted Subsidiaries would be less than such ratio for the Borrower and
its Restricted Subsidiaries immediately prior to such designation, in each case
on a pro forma basis taking into account such designation.

           Any such designation by the Board of Directors of the Borrower shall
be evidenced to the Trustee by promptly filing with the Trustee a copy of the
resolution of the Board of Directors of the Borrower giving effect to such
designation and an Officers' Certificate certifying that such designation
complied with the foregoing provisions.

      amount in a currency other than U.S. Dollars, at any time for the
      determination thereof, the amount of U.S. Dollars obtained by converting
      such foreign currency involved in such computation into U.S. Dollars at
      the spot rate for the purchase of U.S. Dollars with the applicable foreign
      currency as quoted by Reuters at approximately 10:00 A.M. (New York City
      time) on such date of determination (or if no such quote is available on
      such date, on the immediately preceding Business Day for which such a
      quote is available).

           "U.S. GOVERNMENT OBLIGATIONS" shall mean securities that are:

           (1) direct obligations of the United States of America for the timely
     payment of which its full faith and credit is pledged, or

           (2) obligations of a Person controlled or supervised by and acting as
     an agency or instrumentality of the United States of America the timely
     payment of which is

                                       -45-
<PAGE>

     unconditionally guaranteed as a full faith and credit obligation by the
     United States of America, which, in each case, are not callable or
     redeemable at the option of the Borrower thereof, and shall also include a
     depository receipt issued by a bank (as defined in Section 3(a)(2) of the
     Securities Act) as custodian with respect to any such U.S. Government
     Obligations or a specific payment of principal of or interest on any such
     U.S. Government Obligations held by such custodian for the account of the
     holder of such depository receipt; provided that (except as required by
     law) such custodian is not authorized to make any deduction from the amount
     payable to the holder of such depository receipt from any amount received
     by the custodian in respect of the U.S. Government Obligations or the
     specific payment of principal of or interest on the U.S. Government
     Obligations evidenced by such depository receipt.

           "VOTING STOCK" of any Person as of any date shall mean the Capital
Stock of such Person that is at the time entitled to vote in the election of the
Board of Directors of such Person.

           "WEIGHTED AVERAGE LIFE TO MATURITY" shall mean, when applied to any
Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock, as the case may be, at any date, the
quotient obtained by dividing (1) the sum of the products of the number of years
from the date of determination to the date of each successive scheduled
principal payment of such Indebtedness or redemption or similar payment with
respect to such Disqualified Stock multiplied by the amount of such payment, by
(2) the sum of all such payments.

           "WHOLLY OWNED RESTRICTED SUBSIDIARY" is any Wholly Owned Subsidiary
that is a Restricted Subsidiary.

           "WHOLLY OWNED SUBSIDIARY" of any Person shall mean a Subsidiary of
such Person 100% of the outstanding Capital Stock or other ownership interests
of which (other than directors' qualifying shares or shares or interests

more Wholly Owned Subsidiaries of such Person.

           The words "hereof," "herein" and "hereunder" and words of similar
import when used in this Agreement shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and
not to any particular provision of this Agreement, and Section references are to
Sections of this Agreement unless otherwise specified. The words "include,"
"includes" and "including" shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase "without
limitation." Each reference to an agreement or document herein shall mean such
agreement or document as from time to time amended, supplemented or modified in
accordance with its terms, unless expressly stated otherwise.

           SECTION 2. AMOUNT AND TERMS OF CREDIT.

           2.1. COMMITMENTS.

                                       -46-
<PAGE>

           (a) Subject to and upon the terms and conditions herein set forth,
each Lender having a Commitment severally agrees to make a loan or loans (each a
"LOAN") on the Closing Date to the Borrower in Dollars, which Loans shall not
exceed for any such Lender the respective Commitment of such Lender and in the
aggregate shall not exceed $600,000,000.

           Such Loans (i) shall be made on the Closing Date, (ii) except as set
forth herein, shall be incurred and maintained as LIBOR Loans, (iii) may be
repaid or prepaid in accordance with the provisions hereof, but once repaid or
prepaid, may not be reborrowed, (iv) shall not exceed for any such Lender the
Commitment of such Lender and (v) shall not exceed in the aggregate the total of
all Commitments. On the Initial Maturity Date, all then unpaid Loans shall
either (x) be repaid in full or (y) be exchanged for Exchange Notes in
accordance with Section 2.1(b). Upon any such repayment in full or exchange
pursuant to this Section 2.1, this Agreement shall be of no further force or
effect (other than any fees payable pursuant to Section 4.1).

           (b) (i) Subject to satisfaction of the provisions of this Section
2.1(b) on the Initial Maturity Date, each Loan, to the extent not repaid, will
be exchanged for Exchange Notes in an aggregate principal amount equal to such
Lender's Loans outstanding on the Initial Maturity Date. The Exchange Notes
shall be governed by the Exchange Note Indenture. Upon issuance of the Exchange
Notes, any Notes representing Loans delivered hereunder shall be canceled by the
Borrower and the corresponding amount of the Loans deemed repaid. The Borrower
shall have appointed a trustee for the Exchange Notes (and to which the majority
of holders of Loans shall not have reasonably objected prior to the Initial
Maturity Date) and entered into the Exchange Note Indenture and the Registration
Rights Agreement, and in each case shall comply with the terms and conditions in
each such agreement.

           (ii) On the Initial Maturity Date, the exchange of Loans to Exchange
Notes shall be subject to the following conditions: (A) no Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing under Section 12.1(e) or Section 12.1(f)
of this Agreement relating to the Borrower; (B) all fees then due to the
Arrangers and the Lenders pursuant to Section 4.1 and presented for payment
shall have been paid in full: and (C) no order, decree, injunction or judgment
enjoining any such refinancing shall be in effect. If an Event of Default under
Section 12.1(e) or Section 12.1(f) of this Agreement shall have occurred and be
continuing on the date of such exchange, any notices given or cure periods
commenced while the Loans were outstanding shall be deemed given or commenced
(as of the actual dates thereof) for all purposes with respect to the Exchange
Notes (with the same effect as if the Exchange Notes had been outstanding as of
the actual dates thereof).

           2.2. MINIMUM AMOUNT OF EACH BORROWING. The aggregate principal amount
of the Borrowing of Loans shall be in a multiple of $1,000,000.

           2.3. NOTICE OF BORROWING.

           (a) The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent at the
Administrative Agent's Office prior to 12:00 Noon (New York City time) at least
one Business Day prior written notice (or telephonic notice) of the Borrowing of
Loans. Such notice (a "NOTICE OF BORROWING") shall be irrevocable and shall
specify (i) the aggregate principal amount of the Loans to be made, (ii) the
date of the Borrowing (which shall be the Closing Date) and (iii) the Interest
Pe-

                                       -47-
<PAGE>

riod to be initially applicable thereto. The Administrative Agent shall
promptly give each Lender written notice (or telephonic notice promptly
confirmed in writing) of the proposed Borrowing of Loans, of such Lender's
proportionate share thereof and of the other matters covered by the related
Notice of Borrowing.

           (b) Without in any way limiting the obligation of the Borrower to
confirm in writing any notice it may give hereunder by telephone, the
Administrative Agent may act prior to receipt of written confirmation without
liability upon the basis of such telephonic notice believed by the
Administrative Agent in good faith to be from an Authorized Officer of the
Borrower. In each such case, the Borrower hereby waives the right to dispute the
Administrative Agent's record of the terms of any such telephonic notice.

           2.4. DISBURSEMENT OF FUNDS.

           (a) Subject to Section 6, no later than 9:00 a.m. (New York City
time) on the Closing Date, each Lender will make available its PRO RATA portion
based on its Commitment, if any, of each Borrowing requested to be made on such
date in the manner provided below.

           (b) Each Lender shall make available all amounts it is to fund to the
Borrower in immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent at the
Administrative Agent's Office and the Administrative Agent will make available
to the Borrower, by depositing to the Borrower's account at the Administrative
Agent's Office the aggregate of the amounts so made available in Dollars. Unless
the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to the
Closing Date that such Lender does not intend to make available to the
Administrative Agent its portion of the Borrowing to be made on such date, the
Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available
to the Administrative Agent on such date, and the Administrative Agent, in
reliance upon such assumption, may (in its sole discretion and without any
obligation to do so) make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If
such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the Administrative
Agent by such Lender and the Administrative Agent has made available same to the
Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such
corresponding amount from such Lender. If such Lender does not pay such
corresponding amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent's demand therefor
the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Borrower
shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent. The
Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover from such Lender or the
Borrower interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the
date such corresponding amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to
the Borrower to the date such corresponding amount is recovered by the
Administrative Agent, at a rate PER ANNUM equal to (i) if paid by such Lender,
the Federal Funds Effective Rate or (ii) if paid by the Borrower, the
then-applicable rate of interest or fees, calculated in accordance with Section
2.8, for the respective Loans.

           (c) Nothing in this Section 2.4 shall be deemed to relieve any Lender
from its obligation to fulfill its commitments hereunder or to prejudice any
rights that the Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default
by such Lender hereunder (it being understood, however, that no Lender shall be
responsible for the failure of any other Lender to fulfill its commitments
hereunder).

                                       -48-
<PAGE>

           2.5. REPAYMENT OF LOANS; EVIDENCE OF DEBT.

           (a) Subject to Section 2.1, the Borrower shall repay to the
Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, on the Initial Maturity
Date, the then-unpaid Loans, in Dollars.

           (b) [INTENTIONALLY OMITTED]

           (c) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice
an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to the
appropriate lending office of such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such
lending office of such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of
principal and interest payable and paid to such lending office of such Lender
from time to time under this Agreement.

           (d) The Administrative Agent shall maintain the Register pursuant to
Section 14.6(b), and a subaccount for each Lender, in which Register and
subaccounts (taken together) shall be recorded (i) the amount of each Loan made
hereunder and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any
principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the
Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by
the Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrower and each Lender's share
thereof.

           (e) The entries made in the Register and accounts and subaccounts
maintained pursuant to paragraphs (d) and (e) of this Section 2.5 shall, to the
extent permitted by applicable law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and
amounts of the obligations of the Borrower therein recorded; PROVIDED, HOWEVER,
that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such
account, such Register or such subaccount, as applicable, or any error therein,
shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay (with
applicable interest) the Loans made to the Borrower by such Lender in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement.

           2.6. CONTINUATIONS. The Borrower shall have the option on any
Business Day to continue the outstanding principal amount of any LIBOR Loans as
LIBOR Loans for an additional Interest Period, which Interest Period shall, at
the option of the Borrower be a one or three month period, provided that any
Interest Period may be for a period of less than one month if agreed by the
Borrower and the Administrative Agent (and shall be agreed if a one or three
month period would otherwise violate clause (c) of Section 2.9). Each such
continuation shall be effected by the Borrower by giving the Administrative
Agent at the Administrative Agent's Office prior to 12:00 Noon (New York City
time) at least three Business Days' prior written notice (or telephonic notice
promptly confirmed in writing) (each, a "NOTICE OF CONTINUATION") specifying the
Loans to be so continued and the Interest Period to be initially applicable
thereto. The Administrative Agent shall give each Lender notice as promptly as
practicable of any such proposed continuation affecting any of its Loans.
Failure to deliver a Notice of Continuation shall result in an Interest Period
that is the same as with respect to any LIBOR Loans then outstanding.

           2.7. PRO RATA BORROWINGS. Each Borrowing of Loans under this
Agreement shall be granted by the Lenders PRO RATA on the basis of their
then-applicable Commitments. It is understood that no Lender shall be
responsible for any default by any other Lender in its obliga-

                                       -49-
<PAGE>

tion to make Loans hereunder and that each Lender shall be obligated to make the
Loans provided to be made by it hereunder, regardless of the failure of any
other Lender to fulfill its commitments hereunder.

           2.8. INTEREST.

           (a) The unpaid principal amount of each Loan shall bear interest from
the date of the Borrowing thereof until maturity thereof (whether by
acceleration or otherwise) at a rate PER ANNUM that shall at all times (other
than as specified in Section 2.8 or Section 2.10) be the LIBOR Margin in effect
from time to time plus the relevant LIBOR Rate; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, in no event
shall the interest rate exceed 11.25% PER annum.

           (b) If all or a portion of (i) the principal amount of any Loan or
(ii) any interest payable thereon shall not be paid when due (whether at the
stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall bear
interest at a rate PER ANNUM that is (x) in the case of overdue principal, the
rate that would otherwise be applicable thereto PLUS 2% or (y) in the case of
any overdue interest, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the rate
described in Section 2.8(a) PLUS 2% from and including the date of such
non-payment to but excluding the date on which such amount is paid in full
(after as well as before judgment).

           (c) Interest on each Loan shall accrue from and including the Closing
Date to but excluding the date of any repayment thereof and shall be payable on
the last day of each Interest Period applicable thereto and upon any prepayment
(on the amount prepaid), at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) and,
after such maturity, on demand.

           (d) All computations of interest hereunder shall be made in
accordance with Section 5.5.

           (e) The Administrative Agent, upon determining the interest rate for
any Borrowing of LIBOR Loans, shall promptly notify the Borrower and the
relevant Lenders thereof. Each such determination shall, absent clearly
demonstrable error, be final and conclusive and binding on all parties hereto.

           (f) To the extent that the LIBOR Rate shall be unavailable, the
Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall agree in good faith to find a
comparable rate for the Loans based upon the most recently available LIBOR Rate
(including, without limitation, as "ABR Loans" as provided in the Intelsat
Credit Agreement).

           2.9. INTEREST PERIODS.

           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above:

           (a) the initial Interest Period for any Borrowing of LIBOR Loans
     shall commence on the date of such Borrowing and each Interest Period
     occurring thereafter in respect of such Borrowing shall commence on the day
     on which the next preceding Interest Period expires;

                                       -50-
<PAGE>

           (b) if any Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day that is
     not a Business Day, such Interest Period shall expire on the next
     succeeding Business Day, PROVIDED that if any Interest Period in respect of
     a LIBOR Loan would otherwise expire on a day that is not a Business Day but
     is a day of the month after which no further Business Day occurs in such
     month, such Interest Period shall expire on the next preceding Business
     Day;

           (c) the Borrower shall not be entitled to elect any Interest Period
     in respect of any LIBOR Loan if such Interest Period would extend beyond
     the Initial Maturity Date; and

           (d) in lieu of making any payment permitted or required under this
     Agreement in respect of any LIBOR Loan other than on the last day of the
     Interest Period therefor so long as no Default or Event of Default shall
     have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower at its option may deposit
     with the Administrative Agent an amount equal to the amount of the LIBOR
     Loan to be prepaid and such LIBOR Loan shall be repaid on the last day of
     the Interest Period therefor in the required amount. Such deposit shall be
     held by the Administrative Agent in a corporate time deposit account
     established on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent,
     earning interest at the then-customary rate for accounts of such type. Such
     deposit shall constitute cash collateral for the Obligations, PROVIDED that
     the Borrower may at any time direct that such deposit be applied to make
     the applicable payment required pursuant to this Section 2.9.

           2.10. INCREASED COSTS, ILLEGALITY, ETC.

           (a) In the event that (x) in the case of clause (i) below, the
Administrative Agent or (y) in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) below, any
Lender shall have reasonably determined (which determination shall, absent
clearly demonstrable error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties
hereto):

           (i) on any date for determining the LIBOR Rate for any Interest
     Period that (x) deposits in the principal amounts of the Loans comprising
     such LIBOR Borrowing are not generally available in the relevant market or
     (y) by reason of any changes arising on or after the Closing Date affecting
     the interbank LIBOR market, adequate and fair means do not exist for
     ascertaining the applicable interest rate on the basis provided for in the
     definition of LIBOR Rate; or

           (ii) at any time, that such Lender shall incur increased costs or
     reductions in the amounts received or receivable hereunder with respect to
     any LIBOR Loans (other than any such increase or reduction attributable to
     Taxes) because of (x) any change since the Closing Date in any applicable
     law, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order (or in the
     interpretation or administration thereof and including the introduction of
     any new law or governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order), such as,
     for example, without limitation, a change in official reserve requirements,
     and/or (y) other circumstances affecting the interbank LIBOR market or the
     position of such Lender in such market; or

                                       -51-
<PAGE>

           (iii) at any time, that the making or continuance of any LIBOR Loan
     has become unlawful by compliance by such Lender in good faith with any
     law, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order (or would conflict
     with any such governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order not having
     the force of law even though the failure to comply therewith would not be
     unlawful), or has become impracticable as a result of a contingency
     occurring after the Closing Date that materially and adversely affects the
     interbank LIBOR market;

then, and in any such event, such Lender (or the Administrative Agent, in the
case of clause (i) above) shall within a reasonable time thereafter give notice
(if by telephone, confirmed in writing) to the Borrower and to the
Administrative Agent of such determination (which notice the Administrative
Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the other Lenders). Thereafter (x) in
the case of clause (i) above, LIBOR Loans shall no longer be available until
such time as the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that
the circumstances giving rise to such notice by the Administrative Agent no
longer exist (which notice the Administrative Agent agrees to give at such time
when such circumstances no longer exist), (y) in the case of clause (ii) above,
the Borrower shall pay to such Lender, promptly after receipt of written demand
therefor such additional amounts (in the form of an increased rate of, or a
different method of calculating, interest or otherwise as such Lender in its
reasonable discretion shall determine) as shall be required to compensate such
Lender for such increased costs or reductions in amounts receivable hereunder
(it being agreed that a written notice as to the additional amounts owed to such
Lender, showing in reasonable detail the basis for the calculation thereof,
submitted to the Borrower by such Lender shall, absent clearly demonstrable
error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) and (z) in
the case of clause (iii) above, the Borrower shall take one of the actions
specified in Section 2.10(b) as promptly as possible and, in any event, within
the time period required by law. To the extent that the LIBOR Rate shall be
unavailable due to, or any Lender shall experience increased costs or reduced
receipts per, the circumstances described above, the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent shall agree in good faith to find a comparable rate for the
Loans based upon the most recently available LIBOR Rate (including, without
limitation, as "ABR Loans" as provided in the Intelsat Credit Agreement).

           (b) If, after the Closing Date, the adoption of any applicable law,
rule or regulation regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein, or any
change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental
authority, the National Association of Insurance Commissioners, central bank or
comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or
compliance by a Lender or its parent with any request or directive made or
adopted after the Closing Date regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having
the force of law) of any such authority, association, central bank or comparable
agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such
Lender's or its parent's or its Affiliate's capital or assets as a consequence
of such Lender's commitments or obligations hereunder to a level below that
which such Lender or its parent or its Affiliate could have achieved but for
such adoption, effectiveness, change or compliance (taking into consideration
such Lender's or its parent's policies with respect to capital adequacy), then
from time to time, promptly after demand by such Lender (with a copy to the
Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional
amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or its parent for such
reduction, it being understood and agreed, however, that a Lender shall not be
entitled to such com-

                                       -52-
<PAGE>

pensation as a result of such Lender's compliance with, or pursuant to any
request or directive to comply with, any such law, rule or regulation as in
effect on the Closing Date. Each Lender, upon determining in good faith that any
additional amounts will be payable pursuant to this Section 2.10(b), will give
prompt written notice thereof to the Borrower which notice shall set forth in
reasonable detail the basis of the calculation of such additional amounts,
although the failure to give any such notice shall not, subject to Section 2.13,
release or diminish the Borrower's obligations to pay additional amounts
pursuant to this Section 2.10(b) upon receipt of such notice. To the extent that
the LIBOR Rate shall be unavailable due to, or any Lender shall experience
increased costs or reduced receipts per, the circumstances described above, the
Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall agree in good faith to find a
comparable rate for the Loans based upon the most recently available LIBOR Rate
(including, without limitation, as "ABR Loans" as provided in the Intelsat
Credit Agreement).

           (c) It is understood that to the extent duplicative of Section 5.4,
this Section 2.10 shall not apply to Taxes and shall in no event apply to
Excluded Taxes.

           2.11. COMPENSATION. If (a) any payment of principal of any Loan is
made by the Borrower to or for the account of a Lender other than on the last
day of the Interest Period for such Loan as a result of a payment or conversion
pursuant to Section 2.5, 2.6, 2.10, 5.1 or 5.2, as a result of acceleration of
the maturity of the Loans pursuant to Section 12 or for any other reason, (b)
any LIBOR Loan is not continued as a LIBOR Loan or (c) any prepayment of
principal of any LIBOR Loan is not made as a result of a withdrawn notice of
prepayment pursuant to Section 5.1 or 5.2, the Borrower shall, after receipt of
a written request by such Lender (which request shall set forth in reasonable
detail the basis for requesting such amount), pay to the Administrative Agent
for the account of such Lender any amounts required to compensate such Lender
for any additional losses, costs or expenses that such Lender may reasonably
incur as a result of such payment, failure to continue or failure to prepay,
including any loss, cost or expense (excluding loss of anticipated profits)
actually incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or
other funds acquired by any Lender to fund or maintain such LIBOR Loan.

           2.12. CHANGE OF LENDING OFFICE. Each Lender agrees that, upon the
occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 2.10(a)(ii),
2.10(a)(iii), 2.10(b) or 5.4 with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested
by the Borrower use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations
of such Lender) to designate another lending office for any Loans affected by
such event, PROVIDED that such designation is made on such terms that such
Lender and its lending office suffer no economic, legal or regulatory
disadvantage, with the object of avoiding the consequence of the event giving
rise to the operation of any such Section. Nothing in this Section 2.12 shall
affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrower or the right of any
Lender provided in Section 2.10 or 5.4.

           2.13. NOTICE OF CERTAIN COSTS. Notwithstanding anything in this
Agreement to the contrary, to the extent any notice required by Section 2.10,
2.11 or 5.4 is given by any Lender more than 90 days after such Lender has
knowledge (or should have had knowledge) of the occurrence of the event giving
rise to the additional cost, reduction in amounts, loss, tax or other additional
amounts described in such Sections, such Lender shall not be entitled to
compensation

                                       -53-

under Section 2.10, 2.11 or 5.4, as the case may be, for any such amounts
incurred or accruing prior to the 91st day prior to the giving of such notice to
the Borrower.

           SECTION 3. [RESERVED]

           SECTION 4. FEES; COMMITMENTS.

           4.1. FEES. On the Initial Maturity Date, pursuant to Section 2(d) of
the Fee Letter, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent (for the
benefit of the Initial Lenders) a fee in the amount of 2.25% of the aggregate
principal amount of Loans outstanding on such date; PROVIDED that Exchange Notes
in such principal amount are issued on such date. Such fee shall be fully earned
when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever, except as
provided in Section 2(d) of the Fee Letter. Without duplication, 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; PROVIDED, that the parties
hereto acknowledge that except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, no other
fees are payable under the Fee Letter (or otherwise) in connection with the
Loans made pursuant to this Agreement. Any Loans made hereunder shall be deemed
"Interim Loans" for purposes of the engagement letter dated August 28, 2005
among the Borrower and the investment banks party thereto from time to time.
Except as otherwise provided for herein, no other fees shall be payable by the
Borrower in connection with any Loans made under this Agreement (under the Fee
Letter or otherwise).

           4.2. MANDATORY TERMINATION OF COMMITMENTS.

           The Commitments shall terminate at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on
the Closing Date.

           SECTION 5. PAYMENTS.

           5.1. VOLUNTARY PREPAYMENTS. The Borrower shall have the right to
prepay Loans without premium or penalty, in whole or in part from time to time,
prior to the Initial Maturity Date at a repayment price of 100% of the principal
amount so repaid plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the date of
prepayment. Any prepayment of LIBOR Loans pursuant to this Section 5.1 on any
day other than the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto shall be
subject to compliance by the Borrower with the applicable provisions of Section
2.11.

           5.2. MANDATORY PREPAYMENTS.

           (a) CHANGE OF CONTROL PREPAYMENT OFFER. Unless otherwise prepaid in
accordance with Section 5.1, upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, each
Lender shall have the right to require the Borrower to prepay all or any part of
such Lender's Loans at a price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount
thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of such
repayment.

           Within 90 days following any Change of Control, the Borrower shall
provide a written notice to the Administrative Agent containing the following
information (such notice, a "CHANGE OF CONTROL OFFER"):

                                       -54-
<PAGE>

           (i) that a Change of Control has occurred and that such Lender has
     the right to require the Borrower to repay such Lender's Loans at a price
     in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and
     unpaid interest to the date of purchase;

           (ii) the circumstances and relevant facts and financial information
     regarding such Change of Control;

           (iii) the repayment date (which shall be no earlier than 30 days nor
     later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed); and

           (iv) a statement that any Lender wishing to have its Loans repaid
     pursuant to such Change of Control must comply with Section 5.2(c).

           A Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of
Control, and conditioned upon such Change of Control, if a definitive agreement
is in place for the Change of Control at the time of making the Change of
Control Offer.

           Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section, the
Borrower shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change
of Control if a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at
the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in Section
5.2(a) applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Borrower and repays
all Loans validly offered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer.

           (b) ASSET SALE PREPAYMENT OFFER. Promptly, and in any event within
ten (10) Business Days after the Borrower becomes obligated to make a prepayment
offer pursuant to Section 10.4, the Borrower shall make an offer to prepay the
Loans at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and
unpaid interest, if any, to the prepayment date (an "EXCESS PROCEEDS OFFER"). In
order to make an Excess Proceeds Offer, the Borrower shall provide a written
notice thereof to the Administrative Agent. Such notice shall contain the
following:

           (i) that an Excess Proceeds Offer is being made pursuant to the
     Agreement;

           (ii) the prepayment price and prepayment date, which shall be,
     subject to any contrary requirements of applicable law, a Business Day no
     earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days after the date on which such
     notice is delivered to the Administrative Agent;

           (iii) such information regarding the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as
     the Borrower in good faith believes will enable Lenders to make an informed
     decision with respect to such Excess Proceeds Offer; and

           (iv) a statement that any Lender wishing to have its Loans repaid
     pursuant to such Excess Proceeds Offer must comply with Section 5.2(c).

           (c) PROCEDURES FOR LENDERS TO ACCEPT MANDATORY PREPAYMENT OFFERS;
WITHDRAWAL OF ACCEPTANCE OF A MANDATORY PREPAYMENT OFFER. In order to accept any
Mandatory Pre-

                                       -55-
<PAGE>

payment Offer, a Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing at its
address for notices contained in this Agreement prior to the Mandatory Offer
Election Time of such Lender's election to require the Borrower to prepay all or
a portion of such Lender's Loans pursuant to such Mandatory Prepayment Offer
(which, in the case of any election to require less than all of such Lender's
Loans to be prepaid in such Mandatory Prepayment Offer, shall be in a minimum
principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple thereof) and shall specify
the amount of such Lender's Loans which such Lender requests be prepaid in such
Mandatory Prepayment Offer. In order to validly withdraw any election with
respect to any Put Loans in any Mandatory Prepayment Offer, the Lender holding
such Put Loans shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing at its address
for notices contained in this Agreement prior to the Mandatory Offer Election
Time of such Lender's election to withdraw such Put Loans from such Mandatory
Prepayment Offer, which notification shall include a copy of such Lender's
previous notification electing to have its Put Loans prepaid in such Mandatory
Prepayment Offer and shall state that such election is withdrawn. The
Administrative Agent shall from time to time, upon request by the Borrower,
advise the Borrower of the amount of Put Loans with respect to any Mandatory
Prepayment Offer.

           5.3. METHOD AND PLACE OF PAYMENT.

           (a) Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, all payments
under this Agreement shall be made by the Borrower, without set-off,
counterclaim or deduction of any kind, to the Administrative Agent for the
ratable account of the Lenders entitled thereto not later than 12:00 Noon (New
York City time) on the date when due and shall be made in immediately available
funds at the Administrative Agent's Office or at such other office as the
Administrative Agent shall specify for such purpose by notice to the Borrower,
it being understood that written or facsimile notice by the Borrower to the
Administrative Agent to make a payment from the funds in the Borrower's account
at the Administrative Agent's Office shall constitute the making of such payment
to the extent of such funds held in such account. All payments under each Credit
Document (whether of principal, interest or otherwise) shall be made in Dollars.
The Administrative Agent will thereafter cause to be distributed on the same day
(if payment was actually received by the Administrative Agent prior to 2:00 p.m.
(New York City time) on such day) like funds relating to the payment of
principal or interest or Fees ratably to the Lenders entitled thereto.

           (b) Any payments under this Agreement that are made later than 2:00
p.m. (New York City time) shall be deemed to have been made on the next
succeeding Business Day. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder shall be
stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall
be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, with respect to payments of
principal, interest shall be payable during such extension at the applicable
rate in effect immediately prior to such extension.

           5.4. NET PAYMENTS.

           (a) Any and all payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower or any
Guarantor under this Agreement or any other Credit Document shall be made free
and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any
Indemnified Taxes; PROVIDED that if Borrower or any Guarantor shall be required
by law to deduct or withhold any Indemnified

                                       -56-
<PAGE>

Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as
necessary so that after making all required deductions and withholdings
(including deductions or withholdings of Indemnified Taxes applicable to
additional sums payable under this Section 5.4) the Administrative Agent or any
Lender, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have
received had no such deductions or withholdings been made, (ii) the Borrower or
any Guarantor shall make such deductions or withholdings and (iii) the Borrower
or any Guarantor shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant
Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. Whenever any
Indemnified Taxes are payable by the Borrower, as promptly as possible
thereafter, the Borrower shall send to the Administrative Agent for its own
account or for the account of such Lender, as the case may be, a certified copy
of an original official receipt (or other evidence acceptable to such Lender,
acting reasonably) received by the Borrower showing payment thereof.

           (b) Borrower shall pay and shall indemnify and hold harmless the
Administrative Agent and each Lender (whether or not such Other Taxes were
correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority)
with regard to any Other Taxes.

           (c) Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative
Agent and each Lender within 15 Business Days after written demand therefor, for
the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes imposed on the Administrative Agent or
such Lender as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on
account of any obligation of the Borrower or any Guarantor hereunder or under
any other Credit Document (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or
attributable to amounts payable under this Section 5.4) and any reasonable
expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such
Indemnified 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 by the Administrative Agent
on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest
error.

           (d) A Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or
reduction in a withholding tax imposed under the laws of Bermuda with respect to
payments under this Agreement or any other Credit Document shall deliver to the
Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by
applicable law and as reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative
Agent such properly completed and executed documentation as will permit such
payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate, PROVIDED that such
Lender is legally entitled to complete, execute and deliver such documentation.
To the extent it is legally entitled to do so, each Lender agrees to use
reasonable efforts (consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions and
subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to file or deliver to
the Borrower and the Administrative Agent any certificate or document, as
reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, that may be
necessary to establish any available exemption from, or reduction in the amount
of, any withholding taxes imposed by a jurisdiction other than Bermuda;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that a Lender shall not be required to file or deliver any
such certificate or document if in such Lender's reasonable judgment such
completion, execution or delivery would be disadvantageous to such Lender or
would subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost.

                                       -57-
<PAGE>

           (e) If the Borrower determines in good faith that a reasonable basis
exists for contesting any taxes for which indemnification has been demanded
hereunder, the relevant Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, shall
cooperate with the Borrower in challenging such taxes at the Borrower's expense
if so requested by the Borrower. If any Lender or the Administrative Agent, as
applicable, receives a refund of a tax for which a payment has been made by the
Borrower pursuant to this Agreement (or reduction of, or credit against its tax
liabilities in lieu of a refund), which refund, reduction or credit in the good
faith judgment of such Lender or Administrative Agent, as the case may be, is
attributable to such payment made by the Borrower, then the Lender or the
Administrative Agent, as the case may be, shall reimburse the Borrower for such
amount (together with any interest received thereon) as the Lender or
Administrative Agent, as the case may be, determines to be the proportion of the
refund, reduction or credit as will leave it, after such reimbursement, in no
better or worse position (taking into account expenses or any taxes imposed on
the refund) than it would have been in if the payment had not been required. A
Lender or Administrative Agent shall claim any refund, reduction or credit that
it determines is available to it, unless it concludes in its reasonable
discretion that it would be adversely affected by making such a claim. Neither
the Lender nor the Administrative Agent shall be obliged to disclose any
information regarding its tax affairs or computations to the Borrower in
connection with this paragraph (e) or any other provision of this Section 5.4.

           (f) The agreements in this Section 5.4 shall survive the termination
of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable
hereunder.

           5.5. COMPUTATIONS OF INTEREST AND FEES. Interest on LIBOR Loans shall
be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual days elapsed.

           5.6. LIMIT ON RATE OF INTEREST.

           (a) NO PAYMENT SHALL EXCEED LAWFUL RATE. Notwithstanding any other
term of this Agreement, the Borrower shall not be obliged to pay any interest or
other amounts under or in connection with this Agreement in excess of the amount
or rate permitted under or consistent with any applicable law, rule or
regulation.

           (b) PAYMENT AT HIGHEST LAWFUL RATE. If the Borrower is not obliged to
make a payment which it would otherwise be required to make, as a result of
Section 5.6(a), the Borrower shall make such payment to the maximum extent
permitted by or consistent with applicable laws, rules and regulations.

           (c) ADJUSTMENT IF ANY PAYMENT EXCEEDS LAWFUL RATE. If any provision
of this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents would obligate the
Borrower to make any payment of interest or other amount payable to any Lender
in an amount or calculated at a rate which would be prohibited by any applicable
law, rule or regulation, then notwithstanding such provision, such amount or
rate shall be deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the
maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case may be, as would not be so
prohibited by law, such adjustment to be effected, to the extent necessary, by
reducing the amount or rate of interest required to be paid by the Borrower to
the affected Lender under Section 2.8.

                                       -58-
<PAGE>

           Notwithstanding the foregoing, and after giving effect to all
adjustments contemplated thereby, if any Lender shall have received from the
Borrower an amount in excess of the maximum permitted by any applicable law,
rule or regulation, then the Borrower shall be entitled, by notice in writing to
the Administrative Agent to obtain reimbursement from that Lender in an amount
equal to such excess, and pending such reimbursement, such amount shall be
deemed to be an amount payable by that Lender to the Borrower.

           SECTION 6. CONDITIONS PRECEDENT TO INITIAL BORROWING ON THE CLOSING
DATE.

           The Borrowings on the Closing Date under this Agreement are subject

           SECTION 7. [RESERVED].

           SECTION 8. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND AGREEMENTS.

           In order to induce the Lenders to enter into this Agreement, to make
the Loans and issue or participate in Letters of Credit as provided for herein,
the Borrower make the following representations and warranties to, and
agreements with, the Lenders on the Closing Date:

           8.1. CORPORATE STATUS. Each of the Borrower and the Material
Subsidiaries (a) is a duly organized and validly existing corporation or other
entity in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization
and has the corporate or other organizational power and authority to own its
property and assets and to transact the business in which it is engaged and (b)
has duly qualified and is authorized to do business and is in good standing in
all jurisdictions where it is required to be so qualified, except where the
failure to be so qualified could not reasonably be expected to result in a
Material Adverse Effect.

           8.2. CORPORATE POWER AND AUTHORITY. The Borrower has the corporate or
other organizational power and authority to execute, deliver and carry out the
terms and provisions of the Credit Documents to which it is a party and has
taken all necessary corporate or other organizational action to authorize the
execution, delivery and performance of the Credit Documents to

                                       -60-
<PAGE>

which it is a party. The Borrower has duly executed and delivered each Credit
Document to which it is a party and each such Credit Document which is currently
in effect constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower
enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as the enforceability thereof
may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting creditors'
rights generally and subject to general principles of equity.

           8.3. NO VIOLATION. Neither the execution, delivery or performance by
the Borrower of the Credit Documents to which it is a party and which is
currently in effect nor compliance with the terms and provisions thereof nor the
consummation of the Acquisition and the other transactions contemplated hereby
or thereby will (a) contravene any applicable provision of any material law,
statute, rule, regulation, order, writ, injunction or decree of any court or
governmental instrumentality, (b) result in any breach of any of the terms,
covenants, conditions or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result
in the creation or imposition of (or the obligation to create or impose) any
Lien upon any of the property or assets of the Borrower or any of the Restricted
Subsidiaries (other than Liens created under the Credit Documents) pursuant to,
the terms of any material indenture (including the Senior Note Indentures), loan
agreement, lease agreement, mortgage, deed of trust, agreement or other material
instrument to which the Borrower or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries is a
party or by which it or any of its property or assets is bound or (c) violate
any provision of the certificate of incorporation, by-laws or other
constitutional documents of the Borrower or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries.

           8.4. LITIGATION. There are no actions, suits or proceedings
(including Environmental Claims) pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower,
threatened with respect to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that could
reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect or a Material
Adverse Change.

           8.5. MARGIN REGULATIONS. Neither the making of any Loan hereunder nor
the use of the proceeds thereof will violate the provisions of Regulation T, U
or X of the Board.

           8.6. GOVERNMENTAL APPROVALS. The execution, delivery and performance
of the Transaction Agreement or any Credit Document currently in effect does not
require any consent or approval of, registration or filing with, or any other
action by, any Governmental Authority, except for (i) such as have been obtained
or made and are in full force and effect, (ii) such FCC consents, approvals,
registrations, and filings as may be required in the ordinary course of business
of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries in connection with the use of proceeds of
the Loans hereunder, (iii) such licenses, approvals, authorizations and consents
as may be required by the U.S. Department of State pursuant to the International
Traffic in Arms Regulations, the U.S. Department of Commerce pursuant to the
Export Administration Regulations and the U.S. Department of Treasury pursuant
to Foreign Asset Control Regulations in connection with the exercise of rights
hereunder and under the Security Documents following an Event of Default and
(iv) such licenses, approvals, authorizations or consents the failure to obtain
or make could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

           8.7. INVESTMENT COMPANY ACT. The Borrower is not an "investment
company" within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

                                       -61-
<PAGE>

           8.8. TRUE AND COMPLETE DISCLOSURE.

           (a) None of the factual information and data (taken as a whole)
heretofore or contemporaneously furnished by the Borrower, any of the
Subsidiaries or any of their respective authorized representatives in writing to
the Administrative Agent and/or any Lender in the Offering Memorandum and all
information contained in the Credit Documents currently in effect) for purposes
of or in connection with this Agreement or any transaction contemplated herein
contained any untrue statement or omitted to state any material fact necessary
to make such information and data (taken as a whole) not misleading at such time
in light of the circumstances under which such information or data was furnished
(subject, in the case of quarterly or interim financial statements, to normal
year-end audit adjustments), it being understood and agreed that for purposes of
this Section 8.8(a), such factual information and data shall not include
projections and pro forma financial information.

           (b) The projections and pro forma financial information contained in
the information and data referred to in paragraph (a) above were based on good
faith estimates and assumptions believed by such Persons to be reasonable at the
time made, it being recognized by the Lenders that such projections as to future
events are not to be viewed as facts and that actual results during the period
or periods covered by any such projections may differ from the projected
results.

           8.9. FINANCIAL CONDITION; FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. The unaudited
historical consolidated financial information of the Borrower as set forth in
the Offering Memorandum presents fairly in all material respects the combined
financial position of the Borrower at the respective dates of said information,
statements and results of operations for the respective periods covered thereby
(subject, in the case of quarterly or interim financial statements, to normal
year-end audit adjustments). There has been no Material Adverse Change since
December 31, 2005 (giving effect to the Transactions as if they had occurred
prior thereto).

           8.10. TAX RETURNS AND PAYMENTS.

           (a) The Borrower and each of the Subsidiaries has filed all federal
income tax returns and all other material tax returns, domestic and foreign,
required to be filed by it and has paid all material Taxes payable by it that
have become due, other than those (i) not yet delinquent or (ii) contested in
good faith as to which adequate reserves have been provided in accordance with
GAAP and which could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
Effect. The Borrower and each of the Subsidiaries have paid, or have provided
adequate reserves (in the good faith judgment of the management of the Borrower)
in accordance with GAAP for the payment of, all material federal, state,
provincial and foreign income taxes applicable for all prior fiscal years and
for the current fiscal year.

           (b) None of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries has ever been a
party to any understanding or arrangement constituting a "tax shelter" within
the meaning of Section 6662(d)(2)(C)(iii) of the Code or within the meaning of
Section 6111(c) or Section 6111(d) of the Code as in effect immediately prior to
the enactment of the American Jobs Creation of 2004, or has ever "participated"
in a "reportable transaction" within the meaning of Treasury Regula-

                                       -62-
<PAGE>

tion Section 1.6011-4, except as could not reasonably be likely to, individually
or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

           8.11. COMPLIANCE WITH ERISA.

           (a) Each Plan is in compliance with ERISA, the Code and any
applicable Requirement of Law; no Reportable Event has occurred (or is
reasonably likely to occur) with respect to any Plan; no Plan is insolvent or in
reorganization (or is reasonably likely to be insolvent or in reorganization),
and no written notice of any such insolvency or reorganization has been given to
the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any ERISA Affiliate; no Plan (other than a
multiemployer plan) has an accumulated or waived funding deficiency (or is
reasonably likely to have such a deficiency); none of the Borrower, any
Subsidiary or any ERISA Affiliate has incurred (or is reasonably likely expected
to incur) any liability to or on account of a Plan pursuant to Section 409,
502(i), 502(l), 515, 4062, 4063, 4064, 4069, 4201 or 4204 of ERISA or Section
4971 or 4975 of the Code or has been notified in writing that it will incur any
liability under any of the foregoing Sections with respect to any Plan; no
proceedings have been instituted (or are reasonably likely to be instituted) to
terminate or to reorganize any Plan or to appoint a trustee to administer any
Plan, and no written notice of any such proceedings has been given to the
Borrower, any Subsidiary or any ERISA Affiliate; and no lien imposed under the
Code or ERISA on the assets of the Borrower or any Subsidiary or any ERISA
Affiliate exists (or is reasonably likely to exist) nor has the Borrower, any
Subsidiary or any ERISA Affiliate been notified in writing that such a lien will
be imposed on the assets of the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any ERISA Affiliate
on account of any Plan, except to the extent that a breach of any of the
representations, warranties or agreements in this Section 8.11 would not result,
individually or in the aggregate, in an amount of liability that would be
reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect or relates to any matter
disclosed in the financial statements of the Borrower contained in the Offering
Memorandum. No Plan (other than a multiemployer plan) has an Unfunded Current
Liability that would, individually or when taken together with any other
liabilities referenced in this Section 8.11, be reasonably likely to have a
Material Adverse Effect. With respect to Plans that are multiemployer plans (as
defined in Section 3(37) of ERISA), the representations and warranties in this
Section 8.11(a), other than any made with respect to (i) liability under Section
4201 or 4204 of ERISA or (ii) liability for termination or reorganization of
such Plans under ERISA, are made to the best knowledge of the Borrower.

           (b) All Foreign Plans are in compliance with, and have been
established, administered and operated in accordance with, the terms of such
Foreign Plans and applicable law, except for any failure to so comply,
establish, administer or operate the Foreign Plans as would not reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. All contributions or other payments
which are due with respect to each Foreign Plan have been made in full and there
are no funding deficiencies thereunder, except to the extent any such events
would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect.

           8.12. SUBSIDIARIES. All outstanding capital stock of the Borrower is
owned by Holdings.

           8.13. PATENTS, ETC. The Borrower and each of the Restricted
Subsidiaries have obtained all patents, trademarks, servicemarks, trade names,
copyrights, licenses and other rights,

                                       -63-
<PAGE>

free from burdensome restrictions, that are necessary for the operation of their
respective businesses as currently conducted and as proposed to be conducted,
except where the failure to obtain any such rights could not reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

           8.14. ENVIRONMENTAL LAWS.

           (a) Except as could not reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect: (i) the Borrower and each of the Subsidiaries and all Real
Estate are in compliance with all Environmental Laws; (ii) none of the Borrower
or any of the Subsidiaries is subject to any Environmental Claim or any other
liability under any Environmental Law; (iii) the Borrower and its Subsidiaries
are not conducting any investigation, removal, remedial or other corrective

underground storage tank or related piping, or any impoundment or other disposal
area containing Hazardous Materials is located at, on or under any Real Estate
currently owned or leased by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries.

           (b) None of the Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries has treated,
stored, transported, released or disposed or arranged for disposal or transport
for disposal of Hazardous Materials at, on, under or from any currently or
formerly owned or leased Real Estate or facility in a manner that could
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

           8.15. PROPERTIES. The Borrower and each of the Subsidiaries have good
and marketable title to or leasehold interest in all properties that are
necessary for the operation of their respective businesses as currently
conducted and as proposed to be conducted, free and clear of all Liens (other
than any Liens permitted by this Agreement) and except where the failure to have
such good title could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect.

           8.16. SOLVENCY. On the Closing Date (after giving effect to the
Transactions), immediately following the making of each Loan and after giving
effect to the application of the proceeds of such Loans, the Borrower, on a
consolidated basis with its Subsidiaries, will be Solvent.

           8.17. [INTENTIONALLY OMITTED].

           8.19. [RESERVED].

           SECTION 9. AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS.

           The Borrower hereby covenants and agrees that on the Closing Date and
thereafter, until the Loans, together with interest, Fees and all other
Obligations incurred hereunder, are paid in full or exchanged for Exchange Notes
in accordance with the terms hereof:

                                       -64-
<PAGE>

           9.1. REPORTS AND OTHER INFORMATION.

           (a) Notwithstanding that the Borrower may not be subject to the
reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act or otherwise
report on an annual and quarterly basis on forms provided for such annual and
quarterly reporting pursuant to rules and regulations promulgated by the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), the Borrower shall file with the
SEC (unless the SEC will not accept such a filing), and provide the
Administrative Agent and Lenders with copies thereof, without cost to each
Lender, within 15 days after it files or, in the case of a Form 6-K, furnishes
(or attempts to file or furnish) them with the SEC,

           (i) within 90 days after the end of each fiscal year (or such longer
     period as may be permitted by the SEC if the Borrower were then subject to
     such SEC reporting requirements as a required filer, voluntary filer or
     otherwise), an annual report (which, if permitted under applicable rules of
     the SEC, may be the annual report of Holdings or another Parent of the
     Borrower) on Form 10-K or 20-F (or any successor or comparable forms)
     containing the information required to be contained therein (or required in
     such successor or comparable form) and

           (ii) within 45 days after the end of each of the first three fiscal
     quarters of each fiscal year (or such longer period as may be permitted by
     the SEC if the Borrower were then subject to such SEC reporting
     requirements as a required filer, voluntary filer or otherwise), a
     quarterly report (which, if permitted under applicable rules of the SEC,
     may be the quarterly report of Holdings or another Parent of the Borrower)
     on Form 10-Q or 6-K (or any successor or comparable forms), including a
     Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
     Operations or substantially similar section (whether or not required by
     such form).

           (b) The Borrower shall make the information required by Section
9.1(a) available to prospective lenders upon request. In addition, the Borrower
shall, for so long as any Loans remain outstanding during any period when it is
not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, or otherwise permitted
to furnish the SEC with certain information pursuant to Rule 12g3-2(b) of the
Exchange Act, furnish to the Lenders and prospective lenders, upon their
request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4)
under the Securities Act.

           (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing Sections 9.1(a) and (b), the
Borrower will be deemed to have furnished the reports required by Sections
9.1(a) and (b) to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders if it or Holdings or
another Parent of the Borrower has filed (or, in the case of a Form 6-K,
furnished) such reports with the SEC via the EDGAR filing system and such
reports are publicly available. In addition, such requirements shall be deemed
satisfied prior to the commencement of the exchange offer relating to the
Intelsat Bermuda Notes contemplated by the applicable registration rights
agreement or the effectiveness of any shelf registration statement by the filing
with the SEC of the exchange offer registration statement and/or shelf
registration statement in accordance with the provisions of the applicable
registration rights agreement, and any amendments thereto, with such financial
information that satisfies Regulation S-X of the Securities Act and such
registration statement and/or amendments thereto are filed at times that
otherwise satisfy the time requirements set forth in Section 9.1(a) hereof.

                                       -65-
<PAGE>

           (d) In the event that any Parent of the Borrower is or becomes a
Guarantor or co-obligor of the Loans, the Borrower may satisfy its obligations
under this Section 9.1 with respect to financial information relating to the
Borrower by furnishing financial information relating to such Parent; PROVIDED
that, if required by Regulation S-X under the Securities Act, the same is
accompanied by consolidating information that explains in reasonable detail the
differences between the information relating to such Parent and any of its
Subsidiaries other than the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and
the information relating to the Borrower, any Subsidiary Guarantors, if any, and
the other Subsidiaries of the Borrower on a stand-alone basis, on the other
hand.

           (e) In the event that the Borrower changes its fiscal year end from
the fiscal year end used by the Borrower as of the Closing Date, the Borrower
shall promptly give notice of such change to the Administrative Agent.

           9.2. [Reserved].

           9.3. MAINTENANCE OF INSURANCE. The Borrower will, and will cause each
of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, obtain, maintain and keep in full force and
effect at all times (i) with respect to each Satellite procured by the Borrower
or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries for which the risk of loss passes to the
Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary at or before launch, and for which launch
insurance or commitments with respect thereto are not in place as of the Closing
Date, launch insurance with respect to each such Satellite covering the launch
of such Satellite and a period of time thereafter, but only to the extent, if at
all, and on such terms (including coverage period, exclusions, limitations on
coverage, co-insurance, deductibles and coverage amount) as is determined by the
Borrower to be in the best interests of the Borrower, (ii) with respect to each
Satellite it currently owns or for which it has risk of loss (or, if the entire
Satellite is not owned, the portion it owns or for which it has risk of loss),
other than any Excluded Satellite, In-Orbit Insurance and (iii) at all times
subsequent to the coverage period of the launch insurance described in clause
(i) above, if any, or if launch insurance is not procured, at all times
subsequent to the initial completion of in-orbit testing, in each case with
respect to each Satellite it then owns or for which it has risk of loss (or
portion, as applicable), other than any Excluded Satellite, In-Orbit Insurance;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that at any time with respect to a Satellite that is not an
Excluded Satellite, none of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries shall be
required to maintain In-Orbit Insurance in excess of 33% of the aggregate net
book value of all in-orbit Satellites (and portions it owns or for which it has
risk of loss) insured (it being understood that any Satellite (or portion, as
applicable) protected by In-Orbit Contingency Protection shall be deemed to be
insured for a percentage of its net book value as set forth in the definition of
"In-Orbit Contingency Protection"). In the event that the expiration and
non-renewal of In-Orbit Insurance for such a Satellite (or portion, as
applicable) resulting from a claim of loss under such policy causes a failure to
comply with the proviso in the immediately preceding sentence, the Borrower and
its Restricted Subsidiaries shall be deemed to be in compliance with such
proviso for the 120 days immediately following such expiration or non-renewal,
PROVIDED that the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case
may be, procures such In-Orbit Insurance or provides such In-Orbit Contingency
Protection as necessary to comply with such proviso within such 120-day period.
In the event of the unavailability of any In-Orbit Contingency Protection for
any reason, the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may
be,

                                       -66-
<PAGE>

shall, subject to the first proviso above, within 120 days of such
unavailability, be required to have in effect In-Orbit Insurance complying with
clause (ii) or (iii) above, as applicable, with respect to all Satellites (or
portions, as applicable), other than Excluded Satellites that the unavailable
In-Orbit Contingency Protection was intended to protect and for so long as such
In-Orbit Contingency Protection is unavailable, PROVIDED that the Borrower and
its Restricted Subsidiaries shall be considered in compliance with this
insurance covenant for the 120 days immediately following such unavailability.

           9.4. PAYMENT OF TAXES The Borrower will pay and discharge, and the
Borrower will cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to pay and discharge,
all material taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies imposed upon
it or upon its income or profits, or upon any properties belonging to it, prior
to the date on which material penalties attach thereto, and all lawful material
claims that, if unpaid, could reasonably be expected to become a material Lien
upon any properties of the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries,
PROVIDED that none of the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries shall
be required to pay any such tax, assessment, charge, levy or claim that is being
contested in good faith and by proper proceedings if it has maintained adequate
reserves (in the good faith judgment of the management of the Borrower) with
respect thereto in accordance with GAAP and the failure to pay could not
reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

           9.5. CONSOLIDATED CORPORATE FRANCHISES. The Borrower will do, and the
Borrower will cause each Material Subsidiary to do, or cause to be done, all
things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its existence,
corporate rights and authority, except to the extent that the failure to do so
could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that the Borrower and its Subsidiaries may consummate any transaction
permitted under Section 10.4 or 10.10.

           9.6. COMPLIANCE WITH STATUTES, REGULATIONS, ETC. The Borrower will,
and will cause each Subsidiary to, comply with all applicable laws, rules,
regulations and orders applicable to it or its property (including all FCC
Licenses and all other governmental approvals or authorizations required to
launch and operate the Satellites and the TT&C Stations related thereto) and to
transmit signals to and receive transmissions from the Satellites, and to
maintain all such FCC Licenses and other governmental approvals or
authorizations in full force and effect, in each case except where the failure
to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect (it
being understood that any failure as it may relate to any FCC License for a
Satellite that is yet to be launched shall not, in itself, be considered or
deemed to result in a Material Adverse Effect).

           9.7. ERISA. Promptly after the Borrower or any Subsidiary or any
ERISA Affiliate knows or has reason to know of the occurrence of any of the
following events that, individually or in the aggregate (including in the
aggregate such events previously disclosed or exempt from disclosure hereunder,
to the extent the liability therefor remains outstanding), would be reasonably
likely to have a Material Adverse Effect, the Borrower will deliver to each of
the Lenders a certificate of an Authorized Officer or any other senior officer
of the Borrower setting forth details as to such occurrence and the action, if
any, that the Borrower, such Subsidiary or such ERISA Affiliate is required or
proposes to take, together with any notices (required, pro-

                                       -67-
<PAGE>

posed or otherwise) given to or filed with or by the Borrower, such Subsidiary,
such ERISA Affiliate, the PBGC, a Plan participant (other than notices relating
to an individual participant's benefits) or the Plan administrator with respect
thereto: that a Reportable Event has occurred; that an accumulated funding
deficiency has been incurred or an application is to be made to the Secretary of
the Treasury for a waiver or modification of the minimum funding standard
(including any required installment payments) or an extension of any
amortization period under Section 412 of the Code with respect to a Plan; that a
Plan having an Unfunded Current Liability has been or is to be terminated,
reorganized, partitioned or declared insolvent under Title IV of ERISA
(including the giving of written notice thereof); that a Plan has an Unfunded
Current Liability that has or will result in a lien under ERISA or the Code;
that proceedings will be or have been instituted to terminate a Plan having an
Unfunded Current Liability (including the giving of written notice thereof);
that a proceeding has been instituted against the Borrower, a Subsidiary or an
ERISA Affiliate pursuant to Section 515 of ERISA to collect a delinquent
contribution to a Plan; that the PBGC has notified the Borrower, any Subsidiary
or any ERISA Affiliate of its intention to appoint a trustee to administer any
Plan; that the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any ERISA Affiliate has failed to
make a required installment or other payment pursuant to Section 412 of the Code
with respect to a Plan; or that the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any ERISA
Affiliate has incurred or will incur (or has been notified in writing that it
will incur) any liability (including any contingent or secondary liability) to
or on account of a Plan pursuant to Section 409, 502(i), 502(l), 515, 4062,
4063, 4064, 4069, 4201 or 4204 of ERISA or Section 4971 or 4975 of the Code.

           9.8. MAINTENANCE OF PROPERTIES . The Borrower will, and will cause
each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, keep and maintain all property material
to the conduct of its business in good working order and condition, ordinary
wear and tear excepted, which shall include, in the case of Satellites (other
than Satellites yet to be launched), the provision of tracking, telemetry,
control and monitoring of Satellites in their designated orbital positions in
accordance with prudent and diligent standards in the commercial satellite
industry, except to the extent that the failure to do so could reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

           9.14. FURTHER INSTRUMENTS AND ACTS. Upon request of the
Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall execute and deliver such further
instruments and do such further acts as may be reasonably necessary or proper to
carry out more effectively the purpose of this Agreement.

           9.15. [RESERVED].

           9.16. INTELSAT GENERAL CORPORATION. The Borrower shall use its
commercially reasonable efforts (as may be permitted under that certain proxy
agreement (the "PROXY AGREEMENT") among Intelsat General Corporation ("INTELSAT
GENERAL") and the other parties thereto, and as may be permitted under any
substantially similar agreement) and shall use its commercially reasonable
efforts (as may be permitted under the Proxy Agreement, and as may be permitted
under any substantially similar agreement) to cause its Restricted Subsidiaries
(other than Intelsat General, and other than any other Government Business
Subsidiary), not to allow or permit, directly or indirectly, Intelsat General,
or such other Government Business Subsidiary, to take, or fail to take, any
action that would violate the covenants and terms of this Agreement.

           9.17. REFINANCING OF LOANS.

           (a) During the period beginning on the Closing Date and continuing to
the date that is 180 days after the Closing Date, the Borrower will not offer,
sell, contract to sell or otherwise incur, any Indebtedness (whether secured or
unsecured), the proceeds of which are used (directly or indirectly) to repay or
refinance the Loans under this Agreement.

           (b) Upon notice (a "TAKE-OUT NOTICE") by, and at the sole discretion
of, any three of the four Joint Lead Arrangers (the "REQUISITE LEAD ARRANGERS"),
at any time and from time to time after the 180th day after the Closing Date and
until the Initial Maturity Date shall have occurred, the Borrower will, subject
to the terms and conditions set forth below, issue and sell debt securities
(which debt securities shall be non-convertible notes (unless otherwise agreed
by the Borrower) and may be, at the option of the Requisite Lead Arrangers in
consultation with the Borrower, any combination of senior or senior
subordinated) on no more than two occasions in an aggregate amount not greater
than that required to refinance the Loans in full (the "TAKE-OUT SECURITIES"),
upon such terms and conditions as specified in the Take-Out Notice and agreed by
the Borrower if and to the extent such issuance of, and the performance of the
obligations of the Borrower under, such Take-Out Securities, is permitted under
the Borrower and its subsidiaries' debt and other agreements as in effect on the
Closing Date (after giving effect to the Transactions). In no event shall the
overall yield on the Take-Out Securities exceed 11 1/4% per annum.

           (c) The Requisite Lead Arrangers in their reasonable discretion after
consultation with the Borrower shall determine whether the Take-Out Securities
shall be issued through a public offering or a private placement. The Take-Out
Securities will contain terms and covenants to substantially the same effect as
those in the Intelsat Bermuda Non-Guaranteed Fixed Rate Notes due 2016.

           (d) The Borrower will, and will cause its subsidiaries to,
participate in and cooperate in connection with, the issuance of Take-Out
Securities, as reasonably requested by the Requisite Lead Arrangers, including
by (i) preparing an offering memorandum, (ii) using their commercially
reasonable efforts to procure ratings for the Take-Out Securities, including,
with-

                                       -69-

out limitation, making appropriate officers of the Borrower available at
mutually agreeable times for meetings with rating agencies, (iii) preparing
materials related to, participating in, making management available at mutually
agreeable times for, and completing one or more "road shows", (iv) using all
reasonable efforts to procure a customary auditor comfort letter that does not
contain limits on liability and is otherwise issued on terms acceptable to the
Requisite Lead Arrangers in their sole discretion, and (v) entering into
customary agreements on mutually agreeable terms. In no event shall such
assistance interfere in any material way with the day-to-day operations of the
Borrower or its subsidiaries.

           SECTION 10. NEGATIVE COVENANTS.

           10.1. LIMITATION ON INCURRENCE OF INDEBTEDNESS AND ISSUANCE OF
DISQUALIFIED STOCK AND PREFERRED STOCK.

           (a) (i) The Borrower shall not, and shall not permit any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, Incur any Indebtedness
(including Acquired Indebtedness) or issue any shares of Disqualified Stock; and
(ii) the Borrower shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to issue
any shares of Preferred Stock; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Borrower and any
Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower may Incur Indebtedness (including Acquired
Indebtedness) or issue shares of Disqualified Stock and any Restricted
Subsidiary may issue shares of Preferred Stock, in each case if the Debt to
Adjusted EBITDA Ratio of the Borrower for the most recently ended four full
fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements are available
immediately preceding the date on which such additional Indebtedness is Incurred
or such Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock is issued would be less than or
equal to 6.75 to 1.00 determined on a pro forma basis (including a pro forma
application of the net proceeds therefrom), as if the additional Indebtedness
had been Incurred, or the Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock had been issued,
as the case may be, and the application of proceeds therefrom had occurred at
the beginning of such four-quarter period.

           (b) The limitations set forth in Section 10.1(a) shall not apply to
(collectively, "PERMITTED DEBT"):

           (i) the Incurrence by the Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries of
     Indebtedness under any Credit Agreements and the issuance and creation of
     letters of credit and bankers' acceptances thereunder (with letters of
     credit and bankers' acceptances being deemed to have a principal amount
     equal to the face amount thereof) up to an aggregate principal amount of
     $4,000.0 million outstanding at any one time;

           (ii) the Incurrence by the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries
     of Indebtedness represented by the Intelsat Bermuda Notes (and any
     guarantees thereof, and exchange notes in respect thereof in accordance
     with the applicable registration rights agreement), the Loans and any
     Guarantees, if applicable (and any Exchange Notes and Guarantees thereof);

           (iii) Indebtedness of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries
     existing on the Closing Date, including any Indebtedness incurred on the
     Closing Date (other than Indebtedness described in clauses (i) and (ii) of
     this Section 10.1(b));

                                       -70-

           (iv) Indebtedness (including Capitalized Lease Obligations) Incurred
     by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, Disqualified Stock
     issued by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries and Preferred
     Stock issued by any Restricted Subsidiaries of the Borrower to finance
     (whether prior to or within 270 days after) the purchase, lease,
     construction or improvement of property (real or personal) or equipment
     (whether through the direct purchase of assets or the Capital Stock of any
     Person owning such assets) in an aggregate principal amount which, when
     aggregated with the principal amount of all other Indebtedness,
     Disqualified Stock and Preferred Stock then outstanding that was Incurred
     pursuant to this clause (iv), does not exceed the greater of (x) $450.0
     million and (y) 4% of Total Assets of the Borrower at the time of
     Incurrence;

           (v) Indebtedness Incurred by the Borrower or any of its Restricted
     Subsidiaries constituting reimbursement obligations with respect to letters
     of credit and bank guarantees issued in the ordinary course of business,
     including, without limitation, letters of credit in respect of workers'
     compensation claims, health, disability or other benefits to employees or
     former employees or their families or property, casualty or liability
     insurance or self-insurance, or other Indebtedness with respect to
     reimbursement type obligations regarding workers' compensation claims;

           (vi) Indebtedness arising from agreements of the Borrower or a
     Restricted Subsidiary providing for indemnification, adjustment of purchase
     price or similar obligations, in each case, Incurred in connection with the
     Transactions or the disposition of any business, assets or a Subsidiary of
     the Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, other than
     guarantees of Indebtedness Incurred by any Person acquiring all or any
     portion of such business, assets or Subsidiary for the purpose of financing
     such acquisition;

           (vii) Indebtedness of the Borrower to a Restricted Subsidiary;
     PROVIDED that any such Indebtedness is subordinated in right of payment to
     the obligations of the Borrower under the Loans; PROVIDED, FURTHER, that
     any subsequent issuance or transfer of any Capital Stock or any other event
     which results in any such Restricted Subsidiary ceasing to be a Restricted
     Subsidiary or any other subsequent transfer of any such Indebtedness
     (except to the Borrower or another Restricted Subsidiary) shall be deemed,

meets the criteria of one or more of the categories of permitted Indebtedness,
Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock described in Sections 10.1(b)(i) through
(xxii) above or is entitled to be Incurred pursuant to Section 10.1(a), the
Borrower shall, in its sole discretion divide, classify or reclassify or later
divide, classify or reclassify such item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or
Preferred Stock in any manner that complies with this Section 10.1 and such item
of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock shall be treated as
having been Incurred pursuant to one or more of such clauses or pursuant to
Section 10.1(a); PROVIDED that all Indebtedness under the Credit Agreements
outstanding on the Closing Date shall be deemed to have been Incurred pursuant

10.1(b)(i). Accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value, amortization
or original issue discount, the payment of interest in the form of additional
Indebtedness with the same terms, the payment of dividends on Preferred Stock in
the form of additional shares of Preferred Stock of the same class, the
accretion of liquidation preference and increases in the amount of Indebtedness
outstanding solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of
currencies shall not be deemed to be an Incurrence of Indebtedness for purposes
of this Section 10.1. Guarantees of, or obligations in respect of letters of
credit relating to, Indebtedness which is otherwise included in the
determination of a particular amount of Indebtedness shall not be included in
the determination of such amount of Indebtedness; PROVIDED that the Incurrence
of the Indebtedness represented by such guarantee or letter of credit, as the
case may be, was in compliance with this Section 10.1.

           For purposes of determining compliance with any U.S.
dollar-denominated restriction on the Incurrence of Indebtedness, the U.S.
Dollar Equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign
currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in
effect on the date such Indebtedness was Incurred, in the case of term debt, or
first committed or first Incurred (whichever yields the lower U.S. Dollar
Equivalent), in the case of revolving credit debt; PROVIDED that if such
Indebtedness is Incurred to refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a
foreign currency, and such refinancing would cause the applicable U.S.
dollar-denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant
currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such U.S.
dollar-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long
as the principal amount of such refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the
principal amount of such Indebtedness being refinanced.

           10.2. LIMITATION ON RESTRICTED PAYMENTS.

           (a) The Borrower shall not, and shall not permit any of its

     Subsidiary receives at least its pro rata share of such dividend or
     distribution in accordance with its Equity Interests in such class or
     series of securities);

     Interests of the Borrower or any Parent of the Borrower;

           (iii) make any principal payment on, or redeem, repurchase, defease

     forma basis, the Borrower would have a Debt to Adjusted EBITDA Ratio of
     less than or equal to 5.5 to 1.0; and

     all other Restricted Payments made by the Borrower and its Restricted
     Subsidiaries after January 28, 2005 (including Restricted Payments
     permitted by clauses (i), (iv) (only to the extent of one-half of the
     amounts paid pursuant to such clause), (vi) and (viii) of Section 10.2(b),
     but excluding all other Restricted Payments permitted by Section 10.2(b)),
     is less than the amount equal to the difference between (1) the Cumulative
     Credit and (2) 1.4 times Cumulative Interest Expense (it being understood
     that for purposes of calculating Cumulative Interest Expense for this
     purpose only, any of the Borrower's or its Subsidiaries' non-cash interest
     expense and amortization of original issue discount shall be excluded).

           (b) The provisions of Section 10.2(a) shall not prohibit:

           (i) the payment of any dividend or distribution within 60 days after
     the date of declaration thereof, if at the date of declaration such payment
     would have complied with the provisions of this Agreement;

           (ii) (A) the repurchase, retirement or other acquisition of any
     Equity Interests ("RETIRED CAPITAL STOCK") of the Borrower or any Parent of

           redeemed, repurchased, acquired or retired for value (plus the amount
           of any premium required to be paid under the terms of the instrument
           governing the Subordinated Indebtedness being so redeemed,
           repurchased, acquired or retired plus any fees incurred in connection
           therewith),

                (B) such Indebtedness is subordinated to the Loans or the
           related Guarantee, as the case may be, at least to the same extent as
           such Subordinated Indebtedness so purchased, exchanged, redeemed,

           following the maturity date of any Exchange Notes then outstanding;

           (iv) the repurchase, retirement or other acquisition (or dividends to
     any Parent of the Borrower to finance any such repurchase, retirement or

           (ix) Investments that are made with Excluded Contributions;

           (x) other Restricted Payments in an aggregate amount not to exceed
     $200.0 million if, immediately after giving effect to such Restricted
     Payment on a pro forma basis, the Borrower would have a Debt to Adjusted
     EBITDA Ratio of less than or equal to 5.5 to 1.0;

           (xi) the distribution, as a dividend or otherwise, of shares of
     Capital Stock of, or Indebtedness owed to the Borrower or a Restricted
     Subsidiary of the Borrower by, Unrestricted Subsidiaries;

     Tax-affected Investor would be required to recognize on a current basis
     taxable income attributable to earnings and profits of the Borrower or its
     Subsidiaries in advance of any distribution of such earnings and profits by
     the Borrower, an amount equal to the product of (i) the amount of the
     income so required to be included (it being understood that for purposes of
     calculating such income pursuant to clause (A), any of the Borrower's and
     its Subsidiaries non-cash interest expense and amortization of original
     issue discount shall be excluded) and (ii) the Presumed Tax Rate; PROVIDED
     that in the case of any such distribution other than a distribution solely
     on account of any Parent of the Borrower qualifying as a Flow Through
     Entity, the Trustee shall have received an opinion of nationally recognized
     tax counsel to the effect that the earnings and profits of the Borrower and
     its Subsidiaries are subject to inclusion in income of a Tax-affected
     Investor on a current basis in advance of any distribution of such earnings
     and profits; and (B) for any taxable year, payment of dividends or other
     distributions to any Parent of the Borrower if any Parent of the Borrower
     is required to file a consolidated, unitary or similar tax return
     reflecting income of the Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries in an
     amount equal to the portion of such taxes attributable to the Borrower
     and/or its Restricted Subsidiaries that are not payable directly by the
     Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries, but not to exceed the amount that
     the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiaries would have been required to
     pay in respect of taxes if the Borrower and such Restricted Subsidiaries
     had been required to pay such taxes directly as standalone taxpayers (or a
     standalone group separate from such Parent);

           (xiii) the payment of dividends, other distributions or other amounts
     by the Borrower to, or the making of loans to, any Parent, in amounts

           on behalf of, officers and employees of any Parent of the Borrower
           and general corporate overhead expenses of any Parent of the
           Borrower, in each case to the extent such fees, expenses, salaries,
           bonuses, benefits and indemnities are attributable to the ownership
           or operation of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries;

           proceeds of which have been contributed to the Borrower or any of its
           Restricted Subsidiaries and that has been guaranteed by, or is
           otherwise considered Indebtedness of, the Borrower Incurred in
           accordance with Section 10.1; and

                (C) pay cash interest on the Existing Intelsat Notes pursuant to
           the terms of the agreements governing such Existing Intelsat Notes as
           in effect on the Closing Date and to pay any cash interest on any
           Indebtedness refinancing the Existing Intelsat Notes; PROVIDED that
           such Indebtedness remains the sole obligation of Holdings and the
           principal amount of any such Indebtedness redeeming, refinancing or
           replacing the Existing Intelsat Notes does not exceed the principal
           amount of the Indebtedness refinanced, plus any premiums, fees and
           expenses payable in connection with such refinancing;

           (xiv) any Restricted Payment used to fund the Transactions and the
     fees and expenses related thereto or made in connection with the
     consummation of the Transactions (including pursuant to or as contemplated
     by the Acquisition Documents, whether on the Closing Date or thereafter),
     or owed by the Borrower or any Parent of the Borrower or Restricted
     Subsidiaries of the Borrower to Affiliates, in each case to the extent
     permitted by Section 10.5;

     acquisition or retirement of Subordinated Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock
     or Preferred Stock of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries,
     pursuant to provisions similar to those described under Sections 10.4 and
     10.6; PROVIDED that, prior to such payment, purchase, redemption,
     defeasance or other acquisition or retirement, the Borrower (or a third
     party to the

                                       -80-

     extent permitted by the indenture) has made a Change of Control Offer or
     Excess Proceeds Offer, as the case may be, with respect to the Loans as a
     result of such Change of Control or Asset Sale, as the case may be, and has
     repurchased all notes validly tendered and not withdrawn in connection with
     such Change of Control Offer or Excess Proceeds Offer, as the case may be;

     for value (including repayment at maturity) of (a) Holdings' 5 1/4% Senior

     Parent of the Borrower to effect the foregoing); PROVIDED that any
     Indebtedness Incurred in connection with any such redemption, repurchase or
     other acquisition is Incurred in accordance with Section 10.1;

           (xx) the repurchase, redemption or other acquisition or retirement
     for value of any of the Existing Intelsat Notes from the proceeds of a
     Specified Sale/Leaseback Transaction (including any payments to any Parent
     of the Borrower to effect the foregoing); and

           (xxi) the payment of dividends, other distributions or other amounts
     by the Borrower to, or the making of loans by the Borrower or any of its
     Restricted Subsidiaries to, any Parent of the Borrower to the extent that
     amounts equal to such dividends, distributions, other amounts or loans are
     promptly contributed to the capital of the Borrower by such Parent or
     otherwise promptly repaid by such Parent to the Borrower or any Restricted
     Subsidiary of the Borrower (whether in the form of interest or principal or
     other payment on debt existing on the Closing Date); PROVIDED that any
     amounts contributed to the capital of the Borrower or otherwise repaid
     pursuant to this clause (xxi) shall be excluded from the calculation set
     forth in the definition of the term "Cumulative Credit";

PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that at the time of, and after giving effect to, any
Restricted Payment permitted under clauses (v), (vi), (vii), (x), (xi),
(xiii)(C), (xvii) and (xix) of this Section 10.2(b), no Default or Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would occur as a consequence
thereof.

           (c) As of the Closing Date, all of the Borrower's Subsidiaries shall
be Restricted Subsidiaries. The Borrower shall not permit any Unrestricted
Subsidiary to become a Restricted Subsidiary except pursuant to the definition
of "Unrestricted Subsidiary." For purposes of designating any Restricted
Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, all outstanding Investments by the
Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries (except to the extent repaid) in the
Subsidiary so designated shall be deemed to be Restricted Payments or Permitted
Investments in an amount determined as set forth in the last sentence of the
definition of "Investments." Such designation shall only be permitted if
Restricted Payments or Permitted Investments in such amount would be permitted
at such time and if such Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an
Unrestricted Subsidiary.

     Date, including pursuant to the Credit Agreements and the other Senior
     Credit Documents, and pursuant to documents and agreements relating to the
     Specified Intercompany Agreements, the Existing Intelsat Notes, the
     Existing Subsidiary Notes (including any exchange notes therefor), the New
     PanAmSat Indebtedness (including any exchange notes therefor) and the
     Lockheed Note;

           (2) the Intelsat Bermuda Notes, this Agreement and the Loans (and, in
     each case, any exchange notes and guarantees thereof);

           (3) applicable law or any applicable rule, regulation or order;

           (4) any agreement or other instrument of a Person acquired by the
     Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary which was in existence at the time of
     such acquisition (but not created in contemplation thereof), which
     encumbrance or restriction is not applicable to any Person, or the
     properties or assets of any Person, other than the Person, or the property
     or assets of the Person, so acquired;

           (5) contracts or agreements for the sale of assets, including
     customary restrictions with respect to a Subsidiary pursuant to an
     agreement that has been entered into for the sale or disposition of all or
     substantially all of the Capital Stock or assets of such Subsidiary;

           (6) Secured Indebtedness otherwise permitted to be Incurred pursuant
     to Sections 10.1 and 10.8 that limit the right of the debtor to dispose of
     the assets securing such Indebtedness;

           (7) restrictions on cash or other deposits or net worth imposed by
     customers under contracts entered into in the ordinary course of business;

     similar agreements (including customary provisions in agreements relating
     to any Joint Venture);

           (9) purchase money obligations for property acquired and Capitalized
     Lease Obligations in the ordinary course of business that impose
     restrictions of the nature discussed in clause (c) above on the property so
     acquired;

           (10) customary provisions contained in leases, licenses, contracts
     and other similar agreements entered into in the ordinary course of
     business that impose restrictions of the type described in clause (c) above
     on the property subject to such lease;

           (11) any encumbrance or restriction of a Receivables Subsidiary
     effected in connection with a Qualified Receivables Financing that, in the
     good faith judgment of the Borrower, are necessary or advisable in
     connection therewith; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that such restrictions apply only
     to such Receivables Subsidiary;

           (12) agreements and instruments, including agreements and instruments
     governing Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock of any
     Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower that is Incurred subsequent to the
     Closing Date and permitted pursuant to Section 10.1; PROVIDED that either
     (A) the provisions relating to such encumbrance or restriction contained in
     such agreements or instruments are no less favorable to the Borrower, taken
     as a whole, as determined by the Board of Directors of the Borrower in good
     faith, than the provisions contained in either Credit Agreement and the
     other Senior Credit Documents or in an indenture or agreement governing the
     Existing Intelsat Notes, the Existing Subsidiary Notes, the New PamAmSat
     Indebtedness, the Intelsat Bermuda Notes or the Loans in each case, as in

           (13) any Restricted Investment not prohibited by Section 10.2 and any
     Permitted Investment; and

     clauses (a), (b) and (c) above imposed by any amendments, modifications,
     restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or
     refinancings of the contracts, instruments or obligations referred to in
     clauses (1) through (13) above; PROVIDED that such amendments,
     modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings,
     replacements or refinancings are, in the good faith judgment of the
     Borrower, no more restrictive as a whole with respect to such encumbrances
     and restrictions than those prior to such amendment, modification,
     restatement, renewal, increase, supplement, refunding, replacement or
     refinancing.

           For purposes of determining compliance with this covenant, (i) the
priority of any Preferred Stock in receiving dividends or liquidating
distributions prior to dividends or liquidating distributions being paid on
ordinary shares shall not be deemed a restriction on the ability to make
distributions on Capital Stock and (ii) the subordination of loans or advances
made to the

                                       -83-
<PAGE>

Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower to other Indebtedness
Incurred by the Borrower or any such Restricted Subsidiary shall not be deemed a
restriction on the ability to make loans or advances.

           10.4. ASSET SALES.

           (a) The Borrower shall not, and shall not permit any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries to, cause or make an Asset Sale, unless (x) the Borrower
or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, receives
consideration at the time of such Asset Sale at least equal to the Fair Market
Value (as determined in good faith by the Borrower) of the assets sold or
otherwise disposed of and (y) at least 75% of the consideration therefor
received by the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, is
in the form of Cash Equivalents; PROVIDED that the amount of:

           (i) any liabilities (as shown on the Borrower's or such Restricted
     Subsidiary's most recent balance sheet or in the notes thereto) of the
     Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower (other than
     liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Loans) that are
     assumed by the transferee of any such assets,

           (ii) any notes or other obligations or other securities or assets
     received by the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower from
     such transferee that are converted by the Borrower or such Restricted
     Subsidiary of the Borrower into cash within 180 days of the receipt thereof
     (to the extent of the cash received), and

           (iii) any Designated Non-cash Consideration received by the Borrower
     or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in such Asset Sale having an
     aggregate Fair Market Value, taken together with all other Designated
     Non-cash Consideration received pursuant to this clause (iii) that is at
     that time outstanding, not to exceed 6.25% of Total Assets of the Borrower
     at the time of the receipt of such Designated Non-cash Consideration (with
     the Fair Market Value of each item of Designated Non-cash Consideration
     being measured at the time received and without giving effect to subsequent
     changes in value)

shall be deemed to be Cash Equivalents for the purposes of this Section 10.4(a).

           (b) Within 485 days after the Borrower's or any Restricted Subsidiary
of the Borrower's receipt of the Net Proceeds of any Asset Sale (or Event of
Loss Proceeds), the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower may
apply the Net Proceeds from such Asset Sale together with any Event of Loss
Proceeds, at its option:

           (i) to permanently reduce Obligations under Secured Indebtedness or
     Pari Passu Indebtedness (PROVIDED that if the Borrower or any Guarantor
     shall so reduce Obligations under Pari Passu Indebtedness (other than Pari
     Passu Indebtedness that is Secured Indebtedness and other than Pari Passu
     Indebtedness that is Indebtedness represented by the Borrower's guarantee
     of Indebtedness of any Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower), the Borrower
     shall equally and ratably reduce Obligations under this Agreement if the
     Loans are then prepayable or, if the Loans may not then be prepaid, by
     making an offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth below for an
     Excess Proceeds Offer) to all

                                       -84-
<PAGE>

     Holders to purchase at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal
     amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest and additional interest,
     if any, the pro rata principal amount of Loans that would otherwise be
     prepaid) or Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a
     Guarantor, in each case other than Indebtedness owed to the Borrower or an
     Affiliate of the Borrower; PROVIDED that if an offer to purchase any
     Indebtedness of any of the Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries is made
     in accordance with the terms of such Indebtedness, the obligation to
     permanently reduce Indebtedness of the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary,
     as the case may be, will be deemed to be satisfied to the extent of the
     amount of the offer, whether or not accepted by the holders thereof, and no
     Net Proceeds in the amount of such offer will be deemed to exist following
     such offer,

           (ii) to an investment in any one or more businesses (PROVIDED that if
     such investment is in the form of the acquisition of Capital Stock of a
     Person, such acquisition results in such Person becoming a Restricted
     Subsidiary of the Borrower), or capital expenditures or assets, in each
     case used or useful in a Similar Business, and/or

           (iii) to make an investment in any one or more businesses (PROVIDED
     that if such investment is in the form of the acquisition of Capital Stock
     of a Person, such acquisition results in such Person becoming a Restricted
     Subsidiary of the Borrower), properties or assets that replace the
     properties and assets that are the subject of such Asset Sale or Event of
     Loss;

PROVIDED that in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above, a binding commitment
shall be treated as a permitted application of the Net Proceeds from the date of
such commitment and, in the event such binding commitment is later canceled or
terminated for any reason before such Net Proceeds are so applied, the Borrower
or such Restricted Subsidiary enters into another binding commitment within nine
months of such cancellation or termination of the prior binding commitment.
Pending the final application of any such Net Proceeds (or Event of Loss
Proceeds), the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower may
temporarily reduce Indebtedness under a revolving credit facility, if any, or
otherwise invest such Net Proceeds (or Event of Loss Proceeds) in Cash
Equivalents or Investment Grade Securities. Any Net Proceeds from any Asset Sale
(or Event of Loss Proceeds) that are not applied as provided and within the time
period set forth in the first sentence of this Section 10.4(b) (it being
understood that any portion of such Net Proceeds (or Event of Loss Proceeds)
used to make an offer to prepay the Loans, as described in clause (i) above,
shall be deemed to have been invested whether or not such offer is accepted)
shall be deemed to constitute "EXCESS PROCEEDS." When the aggregate amount of
Excess Proceeds exceeds $55.0 million, the Borrower shall make a Prepayment
Offer pursuant to Section 5.2 and in accordance with this Section 10.4. Upon
completion of any such Excess Proceeds Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds
shall be reset at zero.

           10.5. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES.

           (a) The Borrower shall not, and shall not permit any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, make any payment to, or
sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets
to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any
transaction or series of transactions, contract, agreement, understanding, loan,
advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate of the Borrower
(each of the forego-

                                       -85-
<PAGE>

ing, an "AFFILIATE Transaction") involving aggregate consideration in excess of
$15.0 million, unless:

           (i) such Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are not materially
     less favorable to the Borrower or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary than
     those that could have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the
     Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person; and

           (ii) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related
     Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of $35.0
     million, the Borrower delivers to the Trustee a resolution adopted in good
     faith by the majority of the Board of Directors of the Borrower or any
     Parent of the Borrower approving such Affiliate Transaction and set forth
     in an Officers' Certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction
     complies with clause (i) above.

           (b) The provisions of Section 10.5(a) shall not apply to the
     following:

           (i) (A) transactions between or among the Borrower and/or any of its
     Restricted Subsidiaries and (B) any merger or amalgamation of the Borrower
     and any direct parent company of Borrower; PROVIDED that such parent
     company shall have no material liabilities and no material assets other
     than cash, Cash Equivalents and the Capital Stock of the Borrower and such
     merger or amalgamation is otherwise in compliance with the terms of this
     Agreement and effected for a bona fide business purpose;

           (ii) (A) Restricted Payments permitted by Section 10.2 and (B)
     Investments under the definition of "Permitted Investments";

           (iii) the entering into of any agreement to pay, and the payment of,
     management, consulting, monitoring and advisory fees and expenses to the
     Sponsors in an aggregate amount in any fiscal year not to exceed the
     greater of (x) $12.5 million and (y) 1.25% of Adjusted EBITDA of the
     Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries for the immediately preceding
     fiscal year;

           (iv) the payment of reasonable and customary fees to, and indemnity
     provided on behalf of officers, directors, employees or consultants of the
     Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower or any Parent of the
     Borrower;

           (v) payments by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to
     the Sponsors made for any financial advisory, financing, underwriting or
     placement services or in respect of other investment banking activities,
     including, without limitation, in connection with acquisitions or
     divestitures, which payments are (x) approved by a majority of the Board of
     Directors of the Borrower in good faith or (y) made pursuant to any
     agreement described under the caption "Certain Relationships and Related
     Party Transactions" in the Offering Memorandum;

           (vi) transactions in which the Borrower or any of its Restricted
     Subsidiaries, as the case may be, delivers to the Trustee a letter from an
     Independent Financial Advisor

                                       -86-
<PAGE>

     stating that such transaction is fair to the Borrower or such Restricted
     Subsidiary from a financial point of view or meets the requirements of
     clause (i) of Section 10.5(a);

           (vii) payments or loans (or cancellation of loans) to employees or
     consultants that are approved by a majority of the Board of Directors of
     the Borrower in good faith;

           (viii) any agreement as in effect as of the Closing Date and any
     amendment thereto (so long as any such agreement together with all
     amendments thereto, taken as a whole, is not more disadvantageous to the
     Lenders in any material respect than the original agreement as in effect on
     the Closing Date) or any transaction contemplated thereby;

           (ix) the existence of, or the performance by the Borrower or any of
     its Restricted Subsidiaries of its obligations under the terms of,
     Acquisition Documents and any amendment thereto or similar agreements which
     it may enter into thereafter; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the existence of, or
     the performance by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of
     its obligations under, any future amendment to any such existing agreement
     or under any similar agreement entered into after the Closing Date shall
     only be permitted by this clause (ix) to the extent that the terms of any
     such existing agreement together with all amendments thereto, taken as a
     whole, or new agreement are not otherwise more disadvantageous to the
     Lenders in any material respect than the original agreement as in effect on
     the Closing Date;

     fees and expenses related to the Transactions, as described in the Offering
     Memorandum or contemplated by the Acquisition Documents;

     purchasers or sellers of goods or services, in each case in the ordinary
     course of business and otherwise in compliance with the terms of this
     Agreement, which are fair to the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries,
     in the reasonable judgment of the Borrower, or are on terms at least as
     favorable as might reasonably have been obtained at such time from an
     unaffiliated party and (B) transactions with Joint Ventures or Unrestricted
     Subsidiaries entered into in the ordinary course of business;

           (xii) any transaction effected as part of a Qualified Receivables

     Stock) of the Borrower to any Permitted Holder or to any director, officer,

           (xiv) the issuances of securities or other payments, awards or grants
     in cash, securities or otherwise pursuant to, or the funding of, employment
     arrangements, stock option and stock ownership plans or similar employee
     benefit plans approved by the Board of Directors of the Borrower or any
     Parent of the Borrower or of a Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower, as
     appropriate, in good faith;

                                       -87-

           (xv) the entering into of any tax sharing agreement or arrangement
     and any payments permitted by clause (xii) of Section 10.2(b);

           (xviii) transactions between the Borrower or any of its Restricted
     Subsidiaries and any Person, a director of which is also a director of the
     Borrower or any Parent of the Borrower; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that such
     director abstains from voting as a director of the Borrower or such Parent,
     as the case maybe, on any matter involving such other Person;

           (xix) pledges of Equity Interests of Unrestricted Subsidiaries;

           (xxi) any transaction pursuant to or in connection with the Specified
     Intercompany Agreements.

           10.6. CHANGE OF CONTROL.

           (a) Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, each Lender shall
have the right to require the Borrower to repurchase all or any part of such
Lender's Loans at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount
thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase in
accordance with Section 5.2(b).

           (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section, the
Borrower shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change
of Control if a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at
the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this
Section and Section 5.2(b) applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the
Borrower and purchases all Loans validly surrendered and not withdrawn under
such Change of Control Offer.

           10.7. FUTURE GUARANTORS. The Borrower shall not permit any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries (other than (i) any Receivables Subsidiary formed in
connection with a Qualified Receivables Financing and (ii) any License
Subsidiary in connection with any guarantee of any Credit Agreement) that is not
a Guarantor to, directly or indirectly, guarantee the payment of any
Indebtedness of the Borrower other than Permitted Debt unless such Subsidiary
executes and delivers to the Administrative Agent a Guarantee substantially in
the form of Exhibit A (together with such opinions or certificates reasonably
requested in connection therewith) pursuant to which such Subsidiary will
guarantee payment of the Loans. Each Guarantee shall be limited to an amount not
to exceed the maximum amount that can be guaranteed by that Restricted
Subsidiary without rendering the Guarantee, as it relates to such Restricted
Subsidiary, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance,
financial assistance or fraudulent transfer or similar laws affecting the rights
of creditors generally.

<PAGE>

           10.8. LIENS. The Borrower shall not, and shall not permit any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, Incur or suffer to
exist any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) that secures any obligations under
Indebtedness of the Borrower against or on any asset or property now owned or
hereafter acquired by the Borrower, or any income or profits therefrom, unless:

           (1) in the case of Liens securing Indebtedness that is Subordinated
     Indebtedness, the Loans are secured by a Lien on such property or assets
     that is senior in priority to such Liens; and

           (2) in all other cases, the Loans are equally and ratably secured;

PROVIDED that any Lien which is granted to secure the Loans under this covenant
shall be automatically released and discharged at the same time as the release
of the Lien that gave rise to the obligation to secure the Loans under this
covenant.

           10.9. SUSPENSION OF COVENANTS.

           (a) During any period of time that: (i) the Loans have Investment
Grade Ratings from two Rating Agencies and (ii) no Default or Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing (the occurrence of the events described in the
foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) being collectively referred to as a "COVENANT
SUSPENSION EVENT"), the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries shall not be
subject to the provisions of Sections 9.3, 10.1, 10.2, 10.3, 10.4, 10.5, 10.7,
10.10(a)(iv) (collectively, the "SUSPENDED COVENANTS").

           (b) Upon the occurrence of a Covenant Suspension Event, any
Guarantees of any Subsidiary Guarantors, if any, will also be suspended as of
such date (the "SUSPENSION DATE").

           (c) In the event that the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries
are not subject to the Suspended Covenants for any period of time as a result of
the foregoing, and on any subsequent date (the "REVERSION DATE") one or both of
the Rating Agencies withdraws its Investment Grade Rating or downgrades the
rating assigned to the Loans below an Investment Grade Rating, then the Borrower
and the Restricted Subsidiaries will thereafter again be subject to the
Suspended Covenants with respect to future events and the Guarantees, if any, of
any Subsidiary Guarantors will be reinstated if such guarantees are then
required by the terms of this Agreement. The period of time between the
Suspension Date and the Reversion Date is referred to in this Agreement as the
"SUSPENSION PERIOD."

           (d) Notwithstanding that the Suspended Covenants may be reinstated,
no Default or Event of Default will be deemed to have occurred as a result of a
failure to comply with the Suspended Covenants during the Suspension Period (or
upon termination of the Suspension Period or after that time based solely on
events that occurred during the Suspension Period).

           (e) On the Reversion Date, all Indebtedness Incurred, or Disqualified
Stock or Preferred Stock issued, during the Suspension Period will be classified
as having been Incurred or issued pursuant to Section 10.1(a) or Section 10.1(b)
(to the extent such Indebtedness or Dis-

                                       -89-
<PAGE>

qualified Stock or Preferred Stock would be permitted to be Incurred or issued
thereunder as of the Reversion Date and after giving effect to Indebtedness
Incurred or issued prior to the Suspension Period and outstanding on the
Reversion Date). To the extent such Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock or
Preferred Stock would not be so permitted to be Incurred or issued pursuant to
Sections 10.1(a) or (b), such Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock or Preferred
Stock will be deemed to have been outstanding on the Closing Date, so that it is
classified as permitted under Section 10.1(b)(iii). Calculations made after the
Reversion Date of the amount available to be made as Restricted Payments under
Section 10.2 will be made as though under Section 10.2 had been in effect since
the Closing Date and throughout the Suspension Period. For the avoidance of
doubt, Restricted Payments made during the Suspension Period shall reduce the
amount available to be made as Restricted Payments under Section 10.2(a). No
Default or Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred on the Reversion
Date as a result of any actions taken by the Borrower or its Restricted
Subsidiaries during the Suspension Period.

           (f) The Borrower shall deliver promptly to the Trustee an Officer's
Certificate notifying the Trustee of any Covenant Suspension Event or Reversion
Date, as the case may be, pursuant to this Section 10.9.

           10.10. WHEN BORROWER MAY MERGE OR TRANSFER ASSETS.

           (a) The Borrower shall not consolidate, amalgamate or merge with or
into or wind up into (whether or not the Borrower is the surviving corporation),
or sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or
substantially all of its properties or assets in one or more related
transactions to, any Person unless:

           (i) the Borrower is a surviving Person or the Person formed by or
     surviving any such consolidation, amalgamation or merger (if other than the
     Borrower) or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or
     other disposition shall have been made is a corporation, partnership or
     limited liability company organized or existing under the laws of the
     United States, any state thereof, the District of Columbia, or any
     territory thereof, under the laws of the jurisdiction of organization of
     the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Parent of the Borrower or under the laws
     of Bermuda or any country that is a member of the European Union (the
     Borrower or such Person, as the case may be, being herein called the
     "SUCCESSOR COMPANY");

           (ii) the Successor Company (if other than the Borrower) expressly
     assumes all the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement and the
     Loans pursuant to documents or instruments in form reasonably satisfactory
     to the Administrative Agent;

           (iii) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default
     or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

           (iv) immediately after giving pro forma effect to such transaction,
     as if such transaction had occurred at the beginning of the applicable
     four-quarter period (and treating any Indebtedness which becomes an
     obligation of the Successor Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries
     as a result of such transaction as having been Incurred by the Successor
     Company or such Restricted Subsidiary at the time of such transaction),
     either

                                       -90-
<PAGE>

                (1) the Successor Company would be permitted to Incur at least
           $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Debt to Adjusted
           EBITDA Ratio test set forth in Section 10.1(a); or

                (2) the Debt to Adjusted EBITDA Ratio for the Successor Company
           and its Restricted Subsidiaries would be equal to or less than such
           ratio for the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries immediately
           prior to such transaction; and

           (v) any Guarantor, unless it is the other party to the transactions
     described above, shall have confirmed in writing that its Guarantee shall
     apply to such Person's obligations under this Agreement and the Loans.

           Notwithstanding the foregoing clauses (iii) and (iv) of this Section
10.10(a), (A) the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary may consolidate or
amalgamate with, merge into, sell, assign or transfer, lease, convey or
otherwise dispose of all or part of its properties and assets to the Borrower or
to another Restricted Subsidiary and (B) the Borrower may merge, amalgamate or
consolidate with an Affiliate incorporated solely for the purpose of
reincorporating the Borrower in a (or another) state of the United States, the
District of Columbia, any territory of the United States, Bermuda or any country
that is a member of the European Union so long as the amount of Indebtedness of
the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries is not increased thereby (any
transaction described in this sentence a "SPECIFIED MERGER/TRANSFER
TRANSACTION").

           (b) Subject to the provisions of any Guarantee, any Subsidiary
Guarantor shall not, and the Borrower shall not permit any Subsidiary Guarantor
to, consolidate, amalgamate or merge with or into or wind up into (whether or
not such Subsidiary Guarantor is the surviving Person), or sell, assign,
transfer, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its
properties or assets in one or more related transactions to, any Person unless:

           (i) such Subsidiary Guarantor is a surviving Person or the Person
     formed by or surviving any such consolidation, amalgamation or merger (if
     other than such Subsidiary Guarantor) or to which such sale, assignment,
     transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition is made is a corporation,
     partnership or limited liability company organized or existing under the
     laws of the United States, any state thereof, the District of Columbia, or
     any territory thereof, under the laws of the jurisdiction of organization
     of the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Parent of the Issuer or under the laws
     of Bermuda or any country that is a member of the European Union (such
     Subsidiary Guarantor or such Person, as the case may be, being herein
     called the "SUCCESSOR GUARANTOR");

           (ii) the Successor Guarantor (if other than such Subsidiary
     Guarantor) expressly assumes all the obligations of such Subsidiary
     Guarantor under this Agreement and such Subsidiary Guarantor's Guarantee
     pursuant to documents or instruments in form reasonably satisfactory to the
     Administrative Agent; and

           (iii) immediately after giving effect to such transaction (and
     treating any Indebtedness which becomes an obligation of the Successor
     Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries as a result of such transaction as
     having been Incurred by the Successor Guaran-

                                       -91-
<PAGE>

     tor or such Subsidiary at the time of such transaction) no Default or Event
     of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

           Subject to the limitations described in this Agreement, the Successor
Guarantor shall succeed to, and be substituted for, such Subsidiary Guarantor
under this Agreement and such Subsidiary Guarantor's Guarantee, and such
Subsidiary Guarantor will automatically be released and discharged from its
obligations under this Agreement and such Subsidiary Guarantor's guarantee.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, (1) a Subsidiary Guarantor may merge, amalgamate
or consolidate with an Affiliate incorporated solely for the purpose of
reincorporating such Subsidiary Guarantor in a (or another) state of the United
States, the District of Columbia, any territory of the United States, Bermuda or
any country that is a member of the European Union or the jurisdiction of
organization of the Borrower, so long as the amount of Indebtedness of the
Subsidiary Guarantor is not increased thereby and (2) a Subsidiary Guarantor may
merge amalgamate or consolidate with another Subsidiary Guarantor or the
Borrower.

           (c) Notwithstanding Sections 10.10(a) and (b) and Section 10.11
below, nothing in these Sections 10.10 and 10.11 shall prevent any Subsidiary
Transfer Transaction, which need not comply with Sections 10.10(a) or (b) and
10.11.

           10.11. SUCCESSOR COMPANY SUBSTITUTED.

           Upon any consolidation, merger or amalgamation, or any sale, lease,
conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the
Borrower in accordance or permitted by with Section 10.10 hereof, the Successor
Company (if other than the Borrower) shall succeed to and be substituted for,
and may exercise every right and power of, the Borrower under this Agreement
with the same effect as if such Successor Company had been named as the Borrower
herein.

           SECTION 11. [RESERVED].

           SECTION 12. EVENTS OF DEFAULT.

           12.1. EVENTS OF DEFAULT. An "EVENT OF DEFAULT" occurs if:

           (a) the Borrower defaults in any payment of interest on any Loan when
     the same becomes due and payable, and such default continues for a period
     of 30 days,

           (b) the Borrower defaults in the payment of principal or premium, if
     any, of any Loan when due at its Stated Maturity, upon optional redemption,
     upon required repurchase, upon declaration or otherwise,

           (c) the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries fails to
     comply with any of its agreements in the Notes or this Agreement (other
     than those referred to in (a) or (b) above) and such failure continues for
     60 days after the notice specified below; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that to the
     extent such failure relates solely to an action or inaction by Intelsat
     General or another Government Business Subsidiary, and the Borrower and its
     Restricted Subsidiaries have otherwise complied with Section 9.19, no Event
     of Default shall occur,

                                       -92-
<PAGE>

           (d) Holdings, the Borrower or any Significant Subsidiary fails to pay
     any Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness owing to a Parent of the Borrower
     or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower) within any applicable grace
     period after final maturity or the acceleration of any such Indebtedness by
     the holders thereof because of a default, in each case, if the total amount
     of such Indebtedness unpaid or accelerated exceeds $75.0 million or its
     foreign currency equivalent,

           (e) Holdings, the Borrower or any Significant Subsidiary pursuant to
     or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law:

                (i) commences a voluntary case;

                (ii) consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in
           an involuntary case;

                (iii) consents to the appointment of a Custodian of it or for
           any substantial part of its property; or

                (iv) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors
           or takes any comparable action under any foreign laws relating to
           insolvency,

           (f) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under
     any Bankruptcy Law that:

                (i) is for relief against Holdings, the Borrower or any
           Significant Subsidiary of the Borrower in an involuntary case;

                (ii) appoints a Custodian of Holdings, the Borrower or any
           Significant Subsidiary of the Borrower or for any substantial part of
           its property; or

                (iii) orders the winding up or liquidation of Holdings, the
           Borrower or any Significant Subsidiary of the Borrower;

     or any similar relief is granted under any foreign laws and the order or
     decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 days, or

           (g) Holdings, the Borrower or any Significant Subsidiary fails to pay
     final judgments aggregating in excess of $75.0 million or its foreign
     currency equivalent (net of any amounts which are covered by enforceable
     insurance policies issued by solvent carriers), which judgments are not
     discharged, waived or stayed for a period of 60 days following the entry
     thereof.

           The foregoing shall constitute Events of Default whatever the reason
for any such Event of Default and whether it is voluntary or involuntary or is
effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any
court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental
body.

                                       -93-
<PAGE>

           The term "BANKRUPTCY LAW" means Title 11, United States Code, or any
similar U.S. Federal, state or any foreign law for the relief of debtors. The
term "CUSTODIAN" means any receiver, trustee, assignee, liquidator, custodian or
similar official under any Bankruptcy Law.

           A Default under clause (c) above shall not constitute an Event of
Default until the Administrative Agent or Lenders of at least 25% in principal
amount of the outstanding Loans notify the Borrower of the Default and the
Borrower does not cure such Default within the time specified in clause (c)
above after receipt of such notice. Such notice must specify the Default, demand
that it be remedied and state that such notice is a "Notice of Default". The
Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, within thirty days after the
occurrence thereof, written notice in the form of an Officers' Certificate of
any event which is, or with the giving of notice or the lapse of time or both
would become, an Event of Default, its status and what action the Borrower is
taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.

           12.2. ACCELERATION. If an Event of Default (other than an Event of
Default specified in Section 12.1(e) or (f) with respect to the Borrower) occurs
and is continuing, the Administrative Agent or Lenders of at least 25% in
principal amount of outstanding Loans by notice to the Borrower, may declare the
principal of, premium, if any, and accrued but unpaid interest on all the Loans
to be due and payable. Upon such a declaration, such principal and interest
shall be due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default specified in
Section 12.1(e) or (f) with respect to the Borrower occurs, the principal of,
premium, if any, and interest on all the Loans shall ipso facto become and be
immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of
the Administrative Agent or any Lenders. The Required Lenders by notice to the
Administrative Agent may rescind an acceleration and its consequences if the
rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree and if all existing
Events of Default have been cured or waived except nonpayment of principal or
interest that has become due solely because of acceleration. No such rescission
shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

           In the event of any Event of Default specified in Section 12.1(d),
such Event of Default and all consequences thereof (excluding, however, any
resulting payment default) shall be annulled, waived and rescinded,
automatically and without any action by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders,
if within 30 days after such Event of Default arose the Borrower delivers an
Officers' Certificate to the Administrative Agent stating that (x) the
Indebtedness or guarantee that is the basis for such Event of Default has been
discharged or (y) the holders thereof have rescinded or waived the acceleration,
notice or action (as the case may be) giving rise to such Event of Default or
(z) the default that is the basis for such Event of Default has been cured, it
being understood that in no event shall an acceleration of the principal amount
of the Loans as described above be annulled, waived or rescinded upon the
happening of any such events.

           12.3. OTHER REMEDIES. If an Event of Default occurs and is
continuing, the Administrative Agent may pursue any available remedy at law or
in equity to collect the payment of principal of or interest on the Loans or to
enforce the performance of any provision of the Loans or this Agreement.

           The Administrative Agent may maintain a proceeding even if it does
not possess any of the Loans or does not produce any of them in the proceeding.
A delay or omission by the

                                       -94-
<PAGE>

Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right or remedy accruing
upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a
waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. No remedy is exclusive of any
other remedy. All available remedies are cumulative.

           12.4. WAIVER OF PAST DEFAULTS. Provided the Loans are not then due
and payable by reason of a declaration of acceleration, the Required Lenders by
notice to the Administrative Agent may waive an existing Default and its
consequences except (a) a Default in the payment of the principal of or interest
on a Note, (b) a Default arising from the failure to redeem or purchase any Loan
when required pursuant to the terms of this Indenture or (c) a Default in
respect of a provision that under Section 14.1 cannot be amended without the
consent of each Lender affected. When a Default is waived, it is deemed cured
and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders will be restored to
their former positions and rights under this Agreement, but no such waiver shall
extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any consequent right.

           12.5. CONTROL BY MAJORITY. The Required Lenders may direct the time,
method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the
Administrative Agent or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the
Administrative Agent. However, the Administrative Agent may refuse to follow any
direction that conflicts with law or this Agreement or, subject to Article 13,
that the Administrative Agent determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of
any other Lender or that would involve the Administrative Agent in personal
liability; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Administrative Agent may take any other
action deemed proper by the Administrative Agent that is not inconsistent with
such direction. Prior to taking any action under this Agreement, the
Administrative Agent shall be entitled to indemnification satisfactory to it in
its sole discretion against all losses and expenses caused by taking or not
taking such action.

           12.6. LIMITATION ON SUITS.

           (a) Except to enforce the right to receive payment of principal,
premium (if any) or interest when due, no Lender may pursue any remedy with
respect to this Agreement or the Loans unless:

           (i) the Lender gives to the Administrative Agent written notice
     stating that an Event of Default is continuing;

           (ii) the Lenders of at least 25% in principal amount of the
     outstanding Loans make a written request to the Administrative Agent to
     pursue the remedy;

           (iii) such Lender or Lenders offer to the Administrative Agent
     reasonable security or indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss,
     liability or expense;

           (iv) the Administrative Agent does not comply with the request within
     60 days after receipt of the request and the offer of security or
     indemnity; and

           (v) the Required Lenders do not give the Administrative Agent a
     direction inconsistent with the request during such 60-day period.

                                       -95-
<PAGE>

           (b) A Lender may not use this Agreement to prejudice the rights of
another Lender or to obtain a preference or priority over another Lender.

           12.7. RIGHTS OF THE LENDERS TO RECEIVE PAYMENT. Notwithstanding any
other provision of this Agreement, the right of any Lender to receive payment of
principal of and interest on the Loans held by such Lender, on or after the
respective due dates expressed or provided for in the Loans, or to bring suit
for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall
not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Lender.

           12.8. PRIORITIES. If the Administrative Agent collects any money or
property pursuant to this Section 12, it shall pay out the money or property in
the following order:

           FIRST: to the Administrative Agent for amounts due under Section 13;

           SECOND: to Lenders for amounts due and unpaid on the Loans for
     principal, premium, if any, and interest, ratably, without preference or
     priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Loans
     for principal and interest, respectively; and

           THIRD: to the Borrower or, to the extent the Administrative Agent
     collects any amount from any Guarantor, to such Guarantor.

           The Administrative Agent may fix a record date and payment date for
any payment to the Lenders pursuant to this Section. At least 15 days before
such record date, the Administrative Agent shall mail to each Lender and the
Borrower a notice that states the record date, the payment date and amount to be
paid.

           SECTION 13. THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT.

           13.1. APPOINTMENT. Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and
appoints the Administrative Agent as the agent of such Lender under this
Agreement and the other Credit Documents, and each such Lender irrevocably
authorizes the Administrative Agent, in such capacity, to take such action on
its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents
and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated
to the Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Credit
Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.
Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, the
Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those
expressly set forth herein, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and
no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or
liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Credit Document or
otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent. The Syndication Agent, in its
capacity as such, shall have no obligations, duties or responsibilities under
this Agreement but shall be entitled to all benefits of this Section 13.

           13.2. DELEGATION OF DUTIES. The Administrative Agent may execute any
of its duties under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents by or through
agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel
concerning all matters pertaining to such duties.

                                       -96-
<PAGE>

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

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

           13.4. RELIANCE BY ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT. The Administrative Agent
shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any
writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telecopy,
telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document or conversation
believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made
by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel
(including counsel to the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts
selected by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may deem and
treat the Lender specified in the Register with respect to any amount owing
hereunder as the owner thereof for all purposes unless a written notice of
assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with the
Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in
failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Credit
Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the
Required Lenders as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its
satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense that may
be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The
Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in
refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents in
accordance with a request of the Required Lenders, and such request and any
action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the
Lenders and all future holders of the Loans.

           13.5. NOTICE OF DEFAULT. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed
to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default
hereunder unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender or
the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of
Default and stating that such notice is a "notice of default." In the event that
the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall
give notice thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall take such
action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably
directed by the Required Lenders, PROVIDED that unless and until the
Administrative Agent shall have received such direc-

                                       -97-
<PAGE>

tions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such
action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or
Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders
(except to the extent that this Agreement requires that such action be taken
only with the approval of the Required Lenders or each of the Lenders, as
applicable).

           13.6. NON-RELIANCE ON ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND OTHER LENDERS. Each
Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Administrative Agent nor any of
its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates has
made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the
Administrative Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of
the Borrower shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the
Administrative Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Administrative
Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative
Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has
deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the
business, operations, property, financial and other condition and
creditworthiness of the Borrower and made its own decision to make its Loans
hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it
will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any
other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem
appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals
and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other
Credit Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform
itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition
and creditworthiness of the Borrower. Except for notices, reports and other
documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the
Administrative Agent hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty
or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information
concerning the business, assets, operations, properties, financial condition,
prospects or creditworthiness of the Borrower that may come into the possession
of the Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees,
agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates.

           13.7. INDEMNIFICATION. The Lenders agree to indemnify the
Administrative Agent in its capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed by
the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so),
ratably according to their respective portions of the Loans held by such Lenders
in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought (or, if indemnification
is sought after the date upon which the Loans shall have been paid in full,
ratably in accordance with their respective portions of the Loans held by such
Lenders in effect immediately prior to such date), from and against any and all
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits,
costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time
(including at any time following the payment of the Loans) be imposed on,
incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way relating to
or arising out of, the Commitments, this Agreement, any of the other Credit
Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or
the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted
by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing,
PROVIDED that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits,
costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the Administrative Agent's gross
negligence or willful misconduct.

                                       -98-
<PAGE>

The agreements in this Section 13.7 shall survive the payment of the Loans and
all other amounts payable hereunder.

           13.8. ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT IN ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY. The
Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from
and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Guarantor
as though the Administrative Agent were not the Administrative Agent hereunder
and under the other Credit Documents. With respect to the Loans made by it, the
Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement
and the other Credit Documents as any Lender and may exercise the same as though
it were not the Administrative Agent, and the terms "Lender" and "Lenders" shall
include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity.

           13.9. SUCCESSOR AGENT. The Administrative Agent may resign as
Administrative Agent upon 20 days' prior written notice to the Lenders and the
Borrower. If the Administrative Agent shall resign as Administrative Agent under
this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, then the Required Lenders shall
appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders, which
successor agent shall be approved by the Borrower (which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld) so long as no Default or Event of Default is continuing,
whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of
the Administrative Agent, and the term "Administrative Agent" shall mean such
successor agent effective upon such appointment and approval, and the former
Administrative Agent's rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall
be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such
former Administrative Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement or any
holders of the Loans. After any retiring Administrative Agent's resignation as
Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 12 shall inure to its
benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was
Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents.

           13.10. WITHHOLDING TAX. To the extent required by any applicable law,
the Administrative Agent may withhold from any interest payment to any Lender an
amount equivalent to any applicable withholding tax. If any Governmental
Authority asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly
withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender (because the
appropriate form was not delivered, was not properly executed, or because such
Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstances
which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax ineffective,
or for any other reason), such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent
(to the extent that the Administrative Agent has not already been reimbursed by
the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so) fully
for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as tax
or otherwise, including penalties and interest, together with all expenses
incurred, including legal expenses, allocated staff costs and any out of pocket
expenses.

           13.11. [RESERVED].

           13.12. TRUSTEE ACT 2000. Section 1 of the Trustee Act 2000 shall not
apply to the duties of the Administrative Agent in relation to the trusts
constituted by this Agreement. Where there are any inconsistencies between the
Trustee Act 1925 or the Trustee Act 2000 and the provisions of this Agreement,
the provisions of this Agreement shall, to the extent permitted by law,

                                       -99-
<PAGE>

prevail, and in the case of any inconsistency with the Trustee Act 2000, the
provisions of this Agreement shall constitute a restriction or exclusion for the
purposes of that Act.

           SECTION 14. MISCELLANEOUS.

           14.1. AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS.

           (a) WITHOUT CONSENT OF THE LENDERS. The Borrower and the
Administrative Agent may amend this Agreement without notice to or consent of
any Lender:

           (i) to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency;

           (ii) to comply with Section 10.10;

           (iii) to add Guarantees with respect to the Loans or to secure the
     Loans;

           (iv) to add to the covenants of the Borrower for the benefit of the
     Lenders or to surrender any right or power herein conferred upon the
     Borrower;

           (v) to effect any provision of this Agreement (including to release
     any Guarantees in accordance with the terms of this Agreement);

           (vi) to make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of
     any Lender;

           (vii) to provide for the issuance of the Exchange Notes; or

           (viii) to release the Guarantee of any Parent of the Borrower.

           After an amendment under this Section 14.1(a) becomes effective, the
Borrower shall mail to Lenders a notice briefly describing such amendment. The
failure to give such notice to all Lenders, or any defect therein, shall not
impair or affect the validity of an amendment under this Section 14.1(a).

           (b) WITH CONSENT OF THE LENDERS. The Borrower and the Administrative
Agent may amend this Agreement with the written consent of the Required Lenders.
However, without the consent of each Lender of an outstanding Loan affected, an
amendment may not:

           (i) reduce the amount of Loans whose Lenders must consent to an
     amendment,

           (ii) reduce the rate of or extend the time for payment of interest on
     any Loan,

           (iii) reduce the principal of or change the Stated Maturity of any
     Loan,

           (iv) make any Loan payable in money other than that stated in such
     Loan,

                                      -100-
<PAGE>

           (v) make any change in Section 12.4 or 12.7 or the second sentence of
     this Section 14.1(b), or

           (vi) expressly subordinate the Loans or any Guarantee to any other
     Indebtedness of the Borrower or any Guarantor.

           It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Lenders under this
Section 14.1(b) to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, but it
shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof.

           After an amendment under this Section 14.1(b) becomes effective, the
Administrative Agent shall provide to the Lenders a notice briefly describing
such amendment. The failure to give such notice to all Lenders entitled to
receive such notice, or any defect therein, shall not impair or affect the
validity of an amendment under this Section 14.1(b).

           (c) Neither the Borrower or any Affiliate of the Borrower shall,
directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any consideration, whether by
way of interest, fee or otherwise, to any Lender for or as an inducement to any
consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement
or the Notes unless such consideration is offered to be paid to all Lenders that
so consent, waive or agree to amend in the time frame set forth in solicitation
documents relating to such consent, waiver or agreement.

           (d) All Lenders holding Loans issued under this Agreement shall vote
and consent together on all matters (as to which any such Loans may vote) as one
class and no Lenders will have the right to vote or consent as a separate class
on any matter.

           14.2. NOTICES. Except as set forth in Section 14.17, all notices,
requests and demands to or upon the respective parties hereto to be effective

           14.3. NO WAIVER; CUMULATIVE REMEDIES. No failure to exercise and no
delay in exercising, on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any
right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under the other Credit Documents

not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law.

           14.4. SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. All representations

           14.5. PAYMENT OF EXPENSES AND TAXES. The Borrower agrees (a) to pay
or reimburse the Agents for all their reasonable out-of-pocket costs and
expenses incurred in connection with the development, preparation and execution

other Credit Documents and any other documents prepared in connection herewith

contemplated hereby and thereby, including the reasonable fees, disbursements
and other charges of counsel to the Agents, (b) to pay or reimburse each Lender
and Agent for all its reasonable and documented costs and expenses incurred in
connection with the enforcement or preservation of any rights under this
Agreement, the other Credit Documents and any such other documents, including
the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel to each Lender
and of counsel to the Agents, (c) to pay, indemnify, and hold harmless each
Lender and Agent from, any and all recording and filing fees and (d) to pay,
indemnify, and hold harmless each Lender and Agent and their respective
directors, officers, employees, trustees, investment advisors and agents from
and against any and all other liabilities, obligations, losses, damages,
penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any

limitation, any of the foregoing relating to the violation of, noncompliance
with or liability under, any Environmental Law or to any actual or alleged
presence, release or threatened release of Hazardous Materials involving or
attributable to the operations of the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or any
of the Real Estate (all the foregoing in this clause (d), collectively, the
"INDEMNIFIED LIABILITIES"), PROVIDED that the Borrower shall have no obligation
hereunder to the Administrative Agent or any Lender nor any of their respective
directors, officers, employees and agents with respect to indemnified
liabilities to the extent attributable to (i) the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of the party to be indemnified as determined in a final and
non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction or (ii) disputes
among the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and/or their transferees. The
agreements in this Section 14.5 shall survive repayment of the Loans and all
other amounts payable hereunder.

           14.6. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS; PARTICIPATIONS AND ASSIGNMENTS.

           (a) 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 (i) the Borrower may not assign or otherwise
transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written
consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower
or without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or
otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with
this Section 14.6. 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 and to the Participants (to
the extent provided in paragraph (c) of this Section 14.6) any legal or
equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

           (b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii)
below, any Lender may 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
Commitments and the Loans at the time owing to

                                      -103-
<PAGE>

it) prior to the Initial Maturity Date (other than to a "Disqualified Lender"
(as defined in the Commitment Letter referred to in the Fee Letter)) only (i)
after consultation with the Borrower and (ii) provided the Initial Lenders,
after giving effect to any such assignment, continue to hold at least 51% of the
aggregate principal amount of Loans outstanding under this Agreement:

           (ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional
     conditions:

           (A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of
     a Lender or an Approved Fund, the amount of the Loans of the assigning
     Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the
     Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to
     the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $1.0 million , and
     increments of $1.0 million in excess thereof, unless each of the Borrower
     and the Administrative Agent otherwise consents (which consents shall not
     be unreasonably withheld or delayed), PROVIDED that no such consent of the
     Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default under Section 12.1 has
     occurred and is continuing; PROVIDED, FURTHER, that contemporaneous
     assignments to a single assignee made by Affiliates of Lenders and related
     Approved Funds shall be aggregated for purposes of meeting the minimum
     assignment amount requirements stated above;

           (B) 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;

           (C) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the
     Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a
     processing and recordation fee of $3,500, PROVIDED that only one such fee
     shall be payable in the event of simultaneous assignments to or from two or
     more Approved Funds; and

           (D) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the
     Administrative Agent an administrative questionnaire in a form approved by
     the Administrative Agent (the "ADMINISTRATIVE QUESTIONNAIRE").

           For the purpose of this Section 14.6(b), the term "APPROVED FUND"
means any Person (other than a natural person) that is engaged in making,
purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit
in the ordinary course and that is administered, advised or managed by (a) a
Lender, (b) an Affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an
entity that administers, advises or manages a Lender.

           (iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to
paragraph (b)(v) of this Section 14.6, from and after the effective date
specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, the assignee thereunder shall be a
party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and
Acceptance, 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 Acceptance, be released from its obligations
under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering
all of the assigning Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, such
Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the
benefits of Sections 2.10, 2.11, 5.4 and 14.5). Any assignment or transfer by a
Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with
this Section 14.6

                                      -104-
<PAGE>

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 paragraph (c) of
this Section 14.6.

           (iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of
the Borrower shall maintain at the Administrative Agent's Office a copy of each
Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of
the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal
amount of the Loans (the "REGISTER"). Further, the Register shall contain the
name and address of the Administrative Agent and the lending office through
which each such Person acts under this Agreement. 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.

           (v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance
executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee's completed
Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender
hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of
this Section 14.6 and any written consent to such assignment required by
paragraph (b) of this Section 14.6, the Administrative Agent shall accept such
Assignment and Acceptance and record the information contained therein in the
Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless
it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

           (c) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the
Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities
(each, a "PARTICIPANT") in all or a portion of such Lender's rights and
obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments
and the Loans owing to it), PROVIDED that (A) such Lender's obligations under
this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely
responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations
and (C) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall
continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such
Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement. 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
or any other Credit Document, PROVIDED that such agreement or instrument may
provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree
to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to
Section 14.1 that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this
Section 14.6, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the
benefits of Sections 2.10, 2.11 and 5.4 to the same extent as if it were a
Lender (subject to the requirements of those Sections) and had acquired its
interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 14.6. To the
extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits
of Section 14.8(b) as though it were a Lender, PROVIDED such Participant agrees
to be subject to Section 14.8(a) as though it were a Lender. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, on and prior to the Initial Maturity Date, the Initial Lenders shall
retain at least 51% of the voting rights for all Loans issued under this
Agreement (subject to allowances for customary participation voting rights).

                                      -105-
<PAGE>

           (ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater
payment under Section 2.10 or 5.4 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 (which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld).

           (d) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the
Administrative Agent, at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or
any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such
Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal
Reserve Bank, and this Section 14.6 shall not apply to any such pledge or
assignment of a security interest, PROVIDED that no such pledge or assignment of
a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder
or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. In
order to facilitate such pledge or assignment, the Borrower hereby agrees that,
upon request of any Lender at any time and from time to time after the Borrower
has made its initial borrowing hereunder, the Borrower shall provide to such
Lender, at the Borrower's own expense, a promissory note, substantially in the
form of EXHIBIT E.

           (e) Subject to Section 14.16, the Borrower authorizes each Lender to
disclose to any Participant, secured creditor of such Lender or assignee (each,
a "TRANSFEREE") and any prospective Transferee any and all financial information
in such Lender's possession concerning the Borrower and its Affiliates that has
been delivered to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower and its Affiliates
pursuant to this Agreement or which has been delivered to such Lender by or on
behalf of the Borrower and its Affiliates in connection with such Lender's
credit evaluation of the Borrower and its Affiliates prior to becoming a party
to this Agreement.

           (f) Each Lender hereby agrees that it shall not transfer, assign or
participate any Loan to any Person other than a "Qualified Institutional Buyer"
(as defined under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) or an
"accredited investor" (as defined under Regulation D), or otherwise pursuant to
a similar exemption under the Securities Act, and the Administrative Agent
agrees that it will not facilitate any transfer other than in compliance with
this sentence.

           14.7. REPLACEMENTS OF LENDERS UNDER CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES.

           (a) The Borrower shall be permitted to replace any Lender that (a)
requests reimbursement for amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.10, 2.12 or 5.4,
(b) is affected in the manner described in Section 2.10(a)(iii) and as a result
thereof of any of the actions described in such Section is required to be taken
or (c) becomes a Defaulting Lender, with a replacement bank or other financial
institution, provided that (i) such replacement does not conflict with any
Requirement of Law, (ii) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing at the time of such replacement, (iii) the Borrower shall repay (or
the replacement bank or institution shall purchase, at par) all Loans and other
amounts (other than an disputed amounts), pursuant to Section 2.10, 2.11, 2.12
or 5.4, as the case may be) owing to such replaced Lender prior to the date of
replacement, (iv) the replacement bank or institution, if not already a Lender,
and the terms and conditions of such replacement, shall be reasonably
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (v) the replaced Lender shall be
obligated to make such replacement in accordance with the provi-

                                      -106-
<PAGE>

sions of Section 14.6 (provided that the Borrower shall be obligated to pay the
registration and processing fee referred to therein) and (vi) any such
replacement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any rights that the Borrower,
the Administrative Agent or any other Lender shall have against the replaced
Lender.

           (b) If any Lender (such Lender, a "NON-CONSENTING LENDER") has failed
to consent to a proposed amendment, waiver, discharge or termination which
pursuant to the terms of Section 14.1(b) requires the consent of all of the
Lenders affected and with respect to which the Required Lenders shall have
granted their consent, then provided no Event of Default (other than any Event
of Default to be cured by such amendment, waiver, discharge or termination) then
exists, the Borrower shall have the right (unless such Non Consenting Lender
grants such consent) to replace such Non Consenting Lender by deeming such Non
Consenting Lender to have assigned its Loans, and its Commitments hereunder to
one or more assignees, reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent,
provided that: (a) all Obligations of the Borrower owing to such Non Consenting
Lender being replaced shall be paid in full to such Non Consenting Lender
concurrently with such assignment, and (b) the replacement Lender shall purchase
the foregoing by paying to such Non Consenting Lender a price equal to the
principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon. No action by
or consent of the Non Consenting Lender shall be necessary in connection with
such assignment, which shall be immediately and automatically effective upon
payment of such purchase price. In connection with any such assignment, the
Borrower, Administrative Agent, such Non Consenting Lender and the replacement
Lender shall otherwise comply with Section 14.6.

           14.8. ADJUSTMENTS; SET-OFF.

           (a) If any Lender (a "BENEFITED LENDER") shall at any time receive
any payment of all or part of its Loans, or interest thereon, or receive any
collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off,
pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in Article 12, or
otherwise), in a greater proportion than any such payment to or collateral
received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of such other Lender's Loans,
or interest thereon, such benefited Lender shall purchase for cash from the
other Lenders a participating interest in such portion of each such other
Lender's Loan, or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such
collateral, or the proceeds thereof, as shall be necessary to cause such
benefited Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral or
proceeds ratably with each of the Lenders; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if all or any
portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such
benefited Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and
benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.

           (b) After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default, in addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law,
each Lender shall have the right, without prior notice to the Borrower, any such
notice being expressly waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by
applicable law, upon any amount becoming due and payable by the Borrower
hereunder (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) to
set-off and appropriate and apply against such amount any and all deposits
(general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and
any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether
direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or un-

                                      -107-
<PAGE>

matured, at any time held or owing by such Lender or any branch or agency
thereof to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower. Each Lender agrees
promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such
set-off and application made by such Lender, PROVIDED that the failure to give
such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

           14.9. COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed by one or more of
the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts (including
by facsimile or other electronic transmission), and all of said counterparts
taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. A set
of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties shall be lodged with
the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

           14.10. SEVERABILITY. Any provision of this Agreement that is
prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction,
be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without
invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or
unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render
unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

           14.11. INTEGRATION. This Agreement and the other Credit Documents
represent the agreement of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof, and there are no promises,
undertakings, representations or warranties by the Borrower, the Administrative
Agent or any Lender relative to subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or
referred to herein or in the other Credit Documents.

           14.12. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS
OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

           14.13. SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION; CONSENT TO SERVICE; WAIVERS.

           (a) The Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally:

           (i) submits for itself and its property in any legal action or
     proceeding relating to this Agreement and the other Credit Documents to
     which it is a party, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in
     respect thereof, to the non-exclusive general jurisdiction of the courts of
     the State of New York, the courts of the United States of America for the
     Southern District of New York and appellate courts from any thereof;

           (ii) consents that any such action or proceeding may be brought in
     such courts and waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to
     the venue of any such action or proceeding in any such court or that such
     action or proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees not to
     plead or claim the same;

           (iii) agrees that service of process in any such action or proceeding
     may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail
     (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to the
     Borrower at its address set forth in Section 14.2

                                      -108-
<PAGE>

     or at such other address of which the Administrative Agent shall have been
     notified pursuant thereto;

           (iv) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect
     service of process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the
     right to sue in any other jurisdiction; and

           (v) waives, to the maximum extent not prohibited by law, any right it
     may have to claim or recover in any legal action or proceeding referred to
     in this Section 14.13 any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential
     damages.

           (b) By the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Borrower
acknowledges that it has by separate written instrument, designated and
appointed CT Corporation System, 1633 Broadway, New York, NY 10019 (and any
successor entity), as its authorized agent upon which process may be served in
any suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the
Credit Documents that may be instituted in any federal or state court in the
State of New York.

           (c) The Borrower, to the extent that it has or hereafter may acquire
any immunity (sovereign or otherwise) from any legal action, suit or proceeding,
from jurisdiction of any court or from setoff or any legal process (whether
service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution
of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) with respect to itself or any
of its property or assets, hereby waives and agrees not to plead or claim such
immunity in respect of its obligations under this Agreement and the other Credit
Documents (it being understood that the waivers contained in this paragraph (c)
shall have the fullest extent permitted under the Foreign Sovereign Immunities
Act of 1976, as amended, and are intended to be irrevocable and not subject to
withdrawal for the purposes of such Act).

           14.14. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS. The Borrower hereby acknowledges that:

           (b) neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender has any fiduciary
relationship with or duty to the Borrower arising out of or in connection with

other hand, in connection herewith or therewith is solely that of debtor and
creditor; and

           (c) no joint venture is created hereby or by the other Credit

ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RE-

                                      -109-
<PAGE>

LATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM
THEREIN.

           14.16. CONFIDENTIALITY. The Administrative Agent and each Lender
shall hold all non-public information furnished by or on behalf of the Borrower
in connection with such Lender's evaluation of whether to become a Lender
hereunder or obtained by such Lender or the Administrative Agent pursuant to the
requirements of this Agreement ("CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION"), confidential in
accordance with its customary procedure for handling confidential information of
this nature and (in the case of a Lender that is a bank) in accordance with safe
and sound banking practices and in any event may make disclosure as required or
requested by any governmental agency or representative thereof or pursuant to
legal process or to such Lender's or the Administrative Agent's attorneys,
professional advisors or independent auditors or Affiliates, PROVIDED that
unless specifically prohibited by applicable law or court order, each Lender and
the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of any request by any
governmental agency or representative thereof (other than any such request in
connection with an examination of the financial condition of such Lender by such
governmental agency) for disclosure of any such non-public information prior to
disclosure of such information, and PROVIDED, FURTHER, that in no event shall
any Lender or the Administrative Agent be obligated or required to return any
materials furnished by Holdings, the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower.
Each Lender and the Administrative Agent agrees that it will not provide to
prospective Transferees or to prospective direct or indirect contractual
counterparties in swap agreements to be entered into in connection with Loans
made hereunder any of the Confidential Information unless such Person is advises
of and agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section 14.16.

           14.17. [RESERVED].

           14.18. USA PATRIOT ACT. Each Lender hereby notifies Holdings and the
Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of
Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the "PATRIOT ACT"), it is
required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower,
which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other
information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrower in accordance
with the Patriot Act.

           14.19. CONVERSION OF CURRENCIES.

           (a) If, for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court, it is
necessary to convert a sum owing hereunder in one currency into another
currency, each party hereto agrees, to the fullest extent that it may
effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in
accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction the first
currency could be purchased with such other currency on the Business Day
immediately preceding the day on which final judgment is given.

           (b) The obligations of the Borrower in respect of any sum due to any
party hereto or any holder of the obligations owing hereunder (the "APPLICABLE
CREDITOR") shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the "JUDGMENT
CURRENCY") other than the currency in which such sum is stated to be due
hereunder (the "AGREEMENT CURRENCY"), be discharged only to the extent that, on
the Business Day following receipt by the Applicable Creditor of any sum
ad-

                                      -110-
<PAGE>

judged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Applicable Creditor may in
accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction purchase
the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency; if the amount of the
Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the
Applicable Creditor in the Agreement Currency, the Borrower agrees, as a
separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the
Applicable Creditor against such loss. The obligations of the Borrower contained
in this Section 14.19 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the
payment of all other amounts owing hereunder.

           (c) For purposes of this Agreement, the Dollar Equivalent of the
Stated Amount of any Letter of Credit shall be calculated on the date when such
Letter of Credit is issued, on the first Business Day of each month and at such
other times as designated by the Administrative Agent. Such Dollar Equivalent
shall remain in effect until the same is recalculated by the Administrative
Agent as provided above and notice of such recalculation is received by the
Borrower, it being understood that until such notice is received, the Dollar
Equivalent shall be as last reported by the Administrative Agent to the
Borrower. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower of each
such determination of Dollar Equivalents.

                                      -111-

           IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each of the parties hereto has caused a
