                              W I T N E S S E T H:

      WHEREAS, the Borrower, certain Lenders, and the Administrative Agent, are
parties to that certain Five-Year Credit Agreement dated as of November 5, 1999
(as amended through the Eighth Amendment dated as of December 19, 2003, the
"Existing Loan Agreement");

      WHEREAS, in connection with the Existing Loan Agreement each of the
initial Guarantors hereunder has previously guaranteed all obligations of the
Borrower under the Existing Loan Agreement and certain other obligations of the
Borrower and its Subsidiaries pursuant to the First Amended and Restated
Guaranty Agreement dated July 17, 2001 (the "Existing Guaranty Agreement");

      WHEREAS, the Borrower, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent are
amending and restating the Existing Loan Agreement pursuant to a First Amended
and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of January 8, 2004 (as the same may
hereafter be further amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from
time to time, the "Credit Agreement");

      WHEREAS, the Borrower owns, directly or indirectly, all or a majority of
the outstanding Capital Securities of each of the Guarantors;

      WHEREAS, the Borrower and Guarantors share an identity of interest as
members of a consolidated group of companies engaged in substantially similar
businesses with the Borrower providing certain centralized financial, accounting
and/or management services to each of the Guarantors;

      WHEREAS, consummation of the transactions pursuant to the Credit Agreement
will enhance the overall financial strength and stability of the Borrower's
entire corporate group, including the Guarantors;

      WHEREAS, it is a condition precedent to the effectiveness of the Lenders'
obligations to make extensions of credit under the Credit Agreement that the
Guarantors execute and deliver this Guaranty, and the Guarantors desire to
execute and deliver this Guaranty to satisfy such condition precedent;

      WHEREAS, the Guarantors, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent wish to
amend and restate the Existing Guaranty Agreement in its entirety with the terms
contained in this Guaranty; and

      WHEREAS, the Guarantors intend that this Guaranty not effect a novation of
their obligations under the Existing Guaranty Agreement, but merely a
restatement, and where applicable, an amendment to the terms governing such
obligations.

      NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and in order to induce
the Guaranteed Parties to enter into and perform their obligations under the
Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents, the Guarantors hereby jointly
and severally agree that the Existing Guaranty Agreement shall be amended and
restated in its entirety to read as follows:

                                      S-2
<PAGE>
      SECTION 1. DEFINITIONS. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined
herein shall have the respective meanings assigned to such terms in the Credit
Agreement (such definitions to be equally applicable to the singular and plural
forms thereof).

      SECTION 2. GUARANTY. The Guarantors hereby jointly and severally,
irrevocably and unconditionally, guarantee the punctual payment when due,
whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, of all Loans and all
other Obligations owing by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries (the Borrower or
Subsidiary being primarily obligated under such Loans or other Obligations being
each a "Primary Obligor") to the Guaranteed Parties, or any of them, under the
Credit Agreement, the Notes and the other Credit Documents, including, without
limitation, all renewals, extensions, modifications and refinancings thereof and
all Rate Protection Obligations, now or hereafter owing, whether for principal,
interest, fees, expenses, indemnification and reimbursement payments or
otherwise, and any and all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including
reasonable attorneys' fees actually incurred) and expenses incurred by the
Administrative Agent in enforcing any rights under this Guaranty (the
"Guaranteed Obligations"), including without limitation, all interest which, but
for the filing of a petition in bankruptcy with respect to a Primary Obligor,
would accrue on any principal portion of the Guaranteed Obligations. Any and all
payments by the Guarantors hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without
deduction for any set-off, counterclaim, or withholding so that, in each case,
each Guaranteed Party will receive, after giving effect to any Taxes (as such
term is defined in the Credit Agreement, but excluding Taxes imposed on overall
net income of the Guaranteed Party to the same extent as excluded pursuant to
the Credit Agreement), the full amount that it would otherwise be entitled to
receive with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations (but without duplication of
amounts for Taxes already included in the Guaranteed Obligations). The
Guarantors acknowledge and agree that this is a guarantee of payment when due,
and not of collection, and that this Guaranty may be enforced up to the full
amount of the Guaranteed Obligations without proceeding against a Primary
Obligor, against any security for the Guaranteed Obligations, against any other
Guarantor or under any other guaranty covering any portion of the Guaranteed
Obligations.

      SECTION 3. GUARANTY ABSOLUTE. The Guarantors guarantee that the Guaranteed
Obligations will be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of the Credit
Documents, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect
in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of any Guaranteed
Party with respect thereto. The liability of each Guarantor under this Guaranty
shall be absolute and unconditional in accordance with its terms and shall
remain in full force and effect without regard to, and shall not be released,
suspended, discharged, terminated or otherwise affected by, any circumstance or
occurrence whatsoever, including, without limitation, the following (whether or
not such Guarantor consents thereto or has notice thereof):

            (a) any change in the time, place or manner of payment of, or in any
      other term of, all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations, any waiver,
      indulgence, renewal, extension, amendment or modification of, or addition,
      consent or supplement to, or deletion from, or any other action or
      inaction under or in respect of, the Credit Agreement, the other Credit
      Documents, or any other documents, instruments or agreements relating to
      the Guaranteed Obligations or any other instrument or agreement referred
      to therein or any assignment or transfer of any thereof;

                                      S-3
<PAGE>
            (b) any lack of validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement,
      the other Credit Documents, or any other document, instrument or agreement
      referred to therein or any assignment or transfer of any thereof;

            (c) any furnishing to the Guaranteed Parties of any additional
      security for the Guaranteed Obligations, or any sale, exchange, release or
      surrender of, or realization on, any security for the Guaranteed
      Obligations;

            (d) any settlement or compromise of any of the Guaranteed
      Obligations, any security therefor, or any liability of any other party
      with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations, or any subordination of the
      payment of the Guaranteed Obligations to the payment of any other
      liability of a Primary Obligor;

            (e) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, composition,
      adjustment, dissolution, liquidation or other like proceeding relating to
      any Guarantor or a Primary Obligor, or any action taken with respect to
      this Guaranty by any trustee or receiver, or by any court, in any such
      proceeding;

            (f) any nonperfection of any security interest or lien on any
      collateral, or any amendment or waiver of, consent to, or departure from,
      any guaranty or security for all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations;

            (g) any application of sums paid by a Primary Obligor or any other
      Person with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations of such Primary Obligor
      to the Guaranteed Parties, regardless of what Guaranteed Obligations of
      such Primary Obligor remain unpaid;

            (h) any act or failure to act by any Guaranteed Party which may
      adversely affect a Guarantor's subrogation rights, if any, against a
      Primary Obligor to recover payments made under this Guaranty; and

            (i) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a
      defense available to, or a discharge of, any Guarantor.

If claim is ever made upon any Guaranteed Party for repayment or recovery of any
amount or amounts received in payment or on account of any of the Guaranteed
Obligations, and any Guaranteed Party repays all or part of said amount by
reason of (a) any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative body
having jurisdiction over such Guaranteed Party or any of its property, or (b)
any settlement or compromise of any such claim effected by such Guaranteed Party
with any such claimant (including a Primary Obligor or a trustee in bankruptcy
for such Primary Obligor), then and in such event the Guarantors agree that any
such judgment, decree, order, settlement or compromise shall be binding on it,
notwithstanding any revocation hereof or the cancellation of the Credit
Agreement, the other Credit Documents, or any other instrument evidencing any
liability of a Primary Obligor, and the Guarantors shall be and remain liable to
such Guaranteed Party for the amounts so repaid or recovered to the same extent
as if such amount had never originally been paid to such Guaranteed Party.

                                      S-4
<PAGE>
      SECTION 4. WAIVER. The Guarantors hereby waive notice of acceptance of
this Guaranty, notice of any Guaranteed Obligations to which it may apply, and
further waive presentment, demand of payment, protest, notice of dishonor or
nonpayment of any such Obligations, suit or taking of other action by the
Guaranteed Parties against, and any other notice to, a Primary Obligor or any
other party liable with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations (including the
Guarantors or any other Person executing a guaranty of the obligations of such
Primary Obligor).

      SECTION 5. WAIVER OF SUBROGATION; CONTRIBUTION. No Guarantor will exercise
any rights against any Primary Obligor which it may acquire by way of
subrogation or contribution, by any payment made hereunder or otherwise and each
of the Guarantors hereby expressly waives any claim, right or remedy which the
Guarantors may now have or hereafter acquire against any Primary Obligor that
arises hereunder and/or from the performance by the Guarantors hereunder,
including, without limitation, any claim, right or remedy of any Guaranteed
Party against any Primary Obligor or any security which any Guaranteed Party now
has or hereafter acquires, whether or not such claim, right or remedy arises in
equity, under contract, by statute, under color of law or otherwise unless and
until the Guaranteed Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full.

      In the event that any Guarantor (the "Funding Guarantor") shall make any
payment or payments under this Guaranty or shall suffer any loss as a result of
any realization upon any collateral granted by it to secure its obligations
hereunder, each other Guarantor (each, a "Contributing Guarantor") hereby agrees
to contribute to the Funding Guarantor an amount equal to such Contributing
Guarantor's pro rata share of such payment or payments made, or losses suffered,
by such Funding Guarantor determined by reference to the ratio of (a) the dollar
amount of the percentage of each such Contributing Guarantor's Net Assets
(without giving effect to any right to receive any contribution or subrogation
or obligation to make any contribution hereunder), to (b) the sum of the Net
Assets of all Guarantors (including the Funding Guarantor) hereunder (without
giving effect to any right to receive contribution or subrogation hereunder or
any obligation to make any contribution hereunder); provided, that the
Contributing Guarantor shall not be obligated to make any such payment to the
Funding Guarantor if the Contributing Guarantor is not solvent at the time of
such contribution or if the Contributing Guarantor would be rendered not solvent
as a result thereof. Nothing in this Section shall affect each Guarantor's
several liability for the entire amount of the Guaranteed Obligations, subject
only to the limitations set forth in Section 16. For the purposes of this
Section 5, (x) the "Net Assets" of any Guarantor shall mean the highest amount,
as of any Determination Date, by which (A) the aggregate present fair saleable
value of the assets of such Guarantor exceeds (B) the amount of all the debts
and liabilities of such Guarantor (including contingent, subordinated, unmatured
and unliquidated liabilities, but excluding the obligations of such Guarantor
hereunder), and (y) "Determination Date" shall mean each of (1) the Effective
Date, (2) the date of commencement of a case under the Bankruptcy Code in which
a Guarantor is a debtor, and (3) the date enforcement hereunder is sought with
respect to such Guarantor. Each Funding Guarantor covenants and agrees that its
right to receive any contribution from any Contributing Guarantor hereunder
shall be subordinated and junior in right of payment in full of all of the
Guaranteed Obligations.

                                      S-5
<PAGE>
      SECTION 6. SEVERABILITY. Any provision of this Guaranty which 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.

      SECTION 7. AMENDMENTS, ETC. No amendment or waiver of any provision of
this Guaranty nor consent to any departure by a Guarantor therefrom shall in any
event be effective unless the same shall be in writing executed by the
Administrative Agent.

      SECTION 8. NOTICES. All notices and other communications provided for
hereunder shall be given in the manner specified in the Credit Agreement (i) in
the case of the Administrative Agent, at the address specified for the
Administrative Agent in the Credit Agreement, and (ii) in the case of the
Guarantors, at the respective addresses specified for such Guarantors in this
Guaranty (or as otherwise specified to the Administrative Agent in writing given
in the manner specified in the Credit Agreement).

      SECTION 9. NO WAIVER; REMEDIES. No failure on the part of the
Administrative Agent or other Guaranteed Parties to exercise, and no delay in
exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any
single or partial exercise of any right hereunder preclude any other or further
exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. No notice to or demand on
any Guarantor in any case shall entitle such Guarantor to any other further
notice or demand in any similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of
the rights of the Administrative Agent or other Guaranteed Parties to any other
or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand. The remedies
herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by
law.

      SECTION 10. RIGHT OF SET OFF. In addition to and not in limitation of all
rights of offset that the Administrative Agent or other Guaranteed Parties may
have under applicable law, the Administrative Agent and the other Guaranteed
Parties shall, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default and whether or not
the Administrative Agent or other Guaranteed Parties have made any demand or the
Guaranteed Obligations are matured, have the right to appropriate and apply to
the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, all deposits of any Guarantor
(general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) then or thereafter
held by and other indebtedness or property, then or thereafter owing by the
Administrative Agent or other Guaranteed Parties to any Guarantor, whether or
not related to this Guaranty or any transaction hereunder. The Guaranteed
Parties shall promptly notify the relevant Guarantor of any offset hereunder.

      SECTION 11. CONTINUING GUARANTY; TRANSFER OF OBLIGATIONS. This Guaranty is
a continuing guaranty and shall (i) remain in full force and effect until
payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable
under this Guaranty, and the termination of the Revolving Loan Commitments, (ii)
be binding upon each Guarantor, its successors and assigns, and (iii) inure to
the benefit of and be enforceable by the Administrative Agent, its successors,
transferees and assigns, for the benefit of the Guaranteed Parties. Without
limiting the foregoing, any Guaranteed Party may assign or otherwise transfer
all or any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations held by it to any other Person,
and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the rights and
benefits in respect thereof granted to such Guaranteed

                                      S-6
<PAGE>
Party under this Guaranty or otherwise, subject, however, to any contrary
provisions in such assignment or transfer, and to the applicable provisions of
the Credit Agreement.

      SECTION 12. GOVERNING LAW; APPOINTMENT OF AGENT FOR SERVICE OF PROCESS;
SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.

            (a) THIS GUARANTY WILL BE DEEMED TO BE A CONTRACT MADE UNDER AND
      GOVERNED BY THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (INCLUDING FOR SUCH
      PURPOSE SECTION 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW OF THE
      STATE OF NEW YORK).

            (b) ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS GUARANTY OR
      OTHERWISE RELATED HERETO MAY BE BROUGHT IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW
      YORK OR OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW
      YORK, AND, BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS GUARANTY, EACH GUARANTOR
      HEREBY CONSENTS, FOR ITSELF AND IN RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY, TO THE
      JURISDICTION OF THE AFORESAID COURTS SOLELY FOR THE PURPOSE OF
      ADJUDICATING ITS RIGHTS OR THE RIGHTS OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND
      OTHER GUARANTEED PARTIES WITH RESPECT TO THIS GUARANTY OR ANY DOCUMENT
      RELATED HERETO. EACH GUARANTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY DESIGNATES UNITED STATES
      CORPORATION COMPANY AS THE DESIGNEE, APPOINTEE AND AGENT OF SUCH GUARANTOR
      TO RECEIVE, FOR AND ON BEHALF OF SUCH GUARANTOR, SERVICE OR PROCESS IN
      SUCH JURISDICTION IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS
      GUARANTY OR ANY DOCUMENT RELATED HERETO AND SUCH SERVICE SHALL BE DEEMED
      COMPLETED THIRTY DAYS AFTER MAILING THEREOF TO SAID AGENT. IT IS
      UNDERSTOOD THAT A COPY OF SUCH PROCESS SERVED ON SUCH AGENT WILL BE
      PROMPTLY FORWARDED BY SUCH LOCAL AGENT AND BY THE SERVER OF PROCESS BY
      MAIL TO THE RESPECTIVE GUARANTOR AT ITS ADDRESS SET FORTH HEREIN, BUT THE
      FAILURE OF SUCH GUARANTOR TO RECEIVE SUCH COPY SHALL NOT, TO THE EXTENT
      PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, AFFECT IN ANY WAY THE SERVICE OF SUCH
      PROCESS. EACH GUARANTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION,
      INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY OBJECTION TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OR
      BASED ON THE GROUNDS OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS, WHICH IT MAY NOW OR
      HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE BRINGING OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN SUCH
      RESPECTIVE JURISDICTIONS IN RESPECT OF THIS GUARANTY OR ANY DOCUMENT
      RELATED THERETO. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF THE
      ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW
      OR TO COMMENCE LEGAL PROCEEDINGS OR OTHERWISE PROCEED AGAINST ANY
      GUARANTOR IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. TO THE EXTENT THAT ANY GUARANTOR HAS
      OR HEREAFTER MAY ACQUIRE ANY IMMUNITY FROM JURISDICTION OF ANY COURT OR
      FROM ANY LEGAL PROCESS (WHETHER THROUGH SERVICE OR NOTICE, ATTACHMENT
      PRIOR TO JUDGMENT,

                                      S-7
<PAGE>
      ATTACHMENT IN AID OF EXECUTION OR OTHERWISE) WITH RESPECT TO ITSELF OR ITS
      PROPERTY, SUCH GUARANTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT
      PERMITTED BY LAW SUCH IMMUNITY IN RESPECT OF ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS
      GUARANTY AND THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS TO WHICH IT IS A PARTY.

            (c) TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EACH GUARANTOR HEREBY
      IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT OF TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR
      COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS GUARANTY OR ANY
      OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT OR ANY MATTER ARISING IN CONNECTION HEREUNDER OR
      THEREUNDER. EACH GUARANTOR ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT IT HAS RECEIVED
      FULL AND SUFFICIENT CONSIDERATION FOR THIS PROVISION (AND EACH OTHER
      PROVISION OF EACH OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT TO WHICH IT IS A PARTY) AND THAT
      THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR SUCH GUARANTOR ENTERING INTO
      THE CREDIT DOCUMENTS.

      SECTION 13. SUBORDINATION OF EACH PRIMARY OBLIGOR'S OBLIGATIONS TO THE
GUARANTORS. As an independent covenant, each Guarantor hereby expressly
covenants and agrees for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and other
Guaranteed Parties that all obligations and liabilities of each Primary Obligor
to such Guarantor of whatsoever description including, without limitation, all
intercompany receivables of such Guarantor from such Primary Obligor ("Junior
Claims") shall be subordinate and junior in right of payment to all Obligations
of such Primary Obligor to the Administrative Agent and other Guaranteed Parties
under the terms of the Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents ("Senior
Claims").

      If an Event of Default shall occur, then, unless and until such Event of
Default shall have been cured, waived, or shall have ceased to exist, no direct
or indirect payment (in cash, property, securities, by setoff or otherwise)
shall be made by any Primary Obligor to any Guarantor on account of or in any
manner in respect of any Junior Claim except such payments and distributions the
proceeds of which shall be applied to the payment of Senior Claims on a pro rata
basis.

      In the event of a Proceeding (as hereinafter defined), all Senior Claims
shall first be paid in full before any direct or indirect payment or
distribution (in cash, property, securities, by setoff or otherwise) shall be
made to any Guarantor on account of or in any manner in respect of any Junior
Claim except such payments and distributions the proceeds of which shall be
applied to the payment of Senior Claims. For the purposes of the previous
sentence, "Proceeding" means any Primary Obligor or any Guarantor shall commence
a voluntary case concerning itself under the Bankruptcy Code or any other
applicable bankruptcy laws; or any involuntary case is commenced against any
Primary Obligor or any Guarantor; or a custodian (as defined in the Bankruptcy
Code or any other applicable bankruptcy laws) is appointed for, or takes charge
of, all or any substantial part of the property of any Primary Obligor or any
Guarantor, or any Primary Obligor or any Guarantor commences any other
proceedings under any reorganization arrangement, adjustment of debt, relief of
debtor, dissolution, insolvency or liquidation or similar law of any
jurisdiction whether now or hereafter in effect relating to any Primary Obligor
or any

                                      S-8
<PAGE>
Guarantor, or any such proceeding is commenced against any Primary Obligor or
any Guarantor, or any Primary Obligor or any Guarantor is adjudicated insolvent
or bankrupt; or any order of relief or other order approving any such case or
proceeding is entered; or any Primary Obligor or any Guarantor suffers any
appointment of any custodian or the like for it or any substantial part of its
property; or any Primary Obligor or any Guarantor makes a general assignment for
the benefit of creditors; or any Primary Obligor or any Guarantor shall fail to
pay, or shall state that it is unable to pay, or shall be unable to pay, its
debts generally as they become due; or any Primary Obligor or any Guarantor
shall call a meeting of its creditors with a view to arranging a composition or
adjustment of its debts; or any Primary Obligor or any Guarantor shall by any
act or failure to act indicate its consent to, approval of or acquiescence in
any of the foregoing; or any corporate action shall be taken by any Primary
Obligor or any Guarantor for the purpose of effecting any of the foregoing.

      In the event any direct or indirect payment or distribution is made to a
Guarantor in contravention of this Section 13, such payment or distribution
shall be deemed received in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent
and other Guaranteed Parties and shall be immediately paid over to the
Administrative Agent for application against the Guaranteed Obligations in
accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement.

      Each Guarantor agrees to execute such additional documents as the
Administrative Agent may reasonably request to evidence the subordination
provided for in this Section 13.

      SECTION 14. JUDGMENT CURRENCY. (a) The Guarantors' obligations hereunder
to make payments in a particular currency (the "Obligation Currency") shall not
be discharged or satisfied by any tender or recovery pursuant to any judgment
expressed in or converted into any currency other than the Obligation Currency,
except to the extent that such tender or recovery results in the effective
receipt by the Guaranteed Parties of the full amount of the Obligation Currency
expressed to be payable under this Guaranty or the Credit Agreement. If for the
purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against any Guarantor in any court or
in any jurisdiction, it becomes necessary to convert into or from any currency
other than the Obligation Currency (such other currency being hereinafter
referred to as the "Judgment Currency") an amount due in the Obligation
Currency, the conversion shall be made, at the currency equivalent determined,
in each case, as on the Business Day immediately preceding the day on which the
judgment is given (such Business Day being hereafter referred to as the
"Judgment Currency Conversion Date").

      (b) If there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the
Judgment Currency Conversion Date and the date of actual payment of the amount
due, the Guarantors covenant and agree to pay, or cause to be paid, such
additional amounts, if any (but in any event not a lesser amount), as may be
necessary to ensure that the amount paid in the Judgment Currency, when
converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of payment, will
produce the amount of the Obligation Currency which could have been purchased
with the amount of Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial
award at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Judgment Currency Conversion
Date.

                                      S-9
<PAGE>
      (c) For purposes of determining the currency equivalent for this Section,
such amounts shall include any premium and costs payable in connection with the
purchase of the Obligation Currency.

      SECTION 15. AUTOMATIC ACCELERATION IN CERTAIN EVENTS. Upon the occurrence
of an Event of Default specified in Section 8.07 of the Credit Agreement, all
Guaranteed Obligations shall automatically become immediately due and payable by
the Guarantors, without notice or other action on the part of the Administrative
Agent or other Guaranteed Parties, and regardless of whether payment of the
Guaranteed Obligations by any Primary Obligor has then been accelerated. In
addition, if any event of the types described in Section 8.07 of the Credit
Agreement should occur with respect to any Guarantor, then the Guaranteed
Obligations shall automatically become immediately due and payable by such
Guarantor, without notice or other action on the part of the Administrative
Agent or other Guaranteed Parties, and regardless of whether payment of the
Guaranteed Obligations by any Primary Obligor has then been accelerated.

      SECTION 16. SAVINGS CLAUSE. (a) It is the intent of each Guarantor and the
Guaranteed Parties that each Guarantor's maximum obligations hereunder shall be,
but not in excess of:

            (i) in a case or proceeding commenced by or against such Guarantor
      under the Bankruptcy Code on or within one year from the date on which any
      of the Guaranteed Obligations are incurred, the maximum amount which would
      not otherwise cause the Guaranteed Obligations (or any other obligations
      of such Guarantor to the Guaranteed Parties) to be avoidable or
      unenforceable against such Guarantor under (A) Section 548 of the
      Bankruptcy Code or (B) any state fraudulent transfer or fraudulent

      arrangement, moratorium, readjustment of debt, dissolution, liquidation or

(The substantive laws under which the possible avoidance or unenforceability of
the Guaranteed Obligations (or any other obligations of such Guarantor to the
Guaranteed Parties) shall be determined in any such case or proceeding shall
hereinafter be referred to as the "Avoidance Provisions").

            (b) To the end set forth in Section 16(a), but only to the extent
      that the Guaranteed Obligations would otherwise be subject to avoidance
      under the Avoidance Provisions, if such Guarantor is not deemed to have
      received valuable consideration, fair value or reasonably equivalent value
      for the Guaranteed Obligations, or if the Guaranteed Obligations would
      render the Guarantor insolvent, or leave the Guarantor with an
      unreasonably small capital to conduct its business, or cause the Guarantor
      to have incurred debts (or to have intended to have incurred debts) beyond
      its ability to pay such debts as they mature, in each case as of the time
      any of the Guaranteed Obligations are deemed to have been incurred under
      the Avoidance Provisions and after giving effect to contribution as among
      Guarantors, the maximum Guaranteed Obligations for which such Guarantor
      shall be liable hereunder shall be reduced to that amount which, after
      giving effect thereto, would not cause the Guaranteed Obligations (or any
      other obligations of such Guarantor to the Guaranteed Parties), as so
      reduced, to be subject to avoidance under the Avoidance Provisions. This
      Section 16(b) is intended solely to preserve the rights of the Guaranteed
      Parties hereunder to the maximum extent that would not cause the
      Guaranteed Obligations of any Guarantor to be subject to avoidance under
      the Avoidance Provisions, and neither such Guarantor nor any other Person
      shall have any right or claim under this Section 16 as against the
      Guaranteed Parties that would not otherwise be available to such Person
      under the Avoidance Provisions.

      (c) None of the provisions of this Section 16 are intended in any manner
to alter the obligations of any holder of Subordinated Debt or the rights of the
holders of "senior indebtedness" as provided by the terms of the Subordinated
Debt. Accordingly, it is the intent of each of the Guarantors that in the event
that any payment or distribution is made with respect to the Subordinated Debt
prior to the payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations by virtue of the
provisions of this Section 16, in any case or proceeding of the kinds described
in clauses (i)-(iii) of Section 16(a), the holders of the Subordinated Debt
shall be obligated to pay or deliver such payment or distribution to or for the
benefit of the Guaranteed Parties. Furthermore, in respect of the Avoidance
Provisions, it is the intent of each Guarantor that the subrogation rights of
the holders of Subordinated Debt with respect to the obligations of the
Guarantor under this Guaranty, be subject in all respects to the provisions of
Section 16(b).

      SECTION 17. INFORMATION. Each of the Guarantors assumes all responsibility
for being and keeping itself informed of each Primary Obligor's financial
condition and assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of
nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the
risks that such Guarantor assumes and incurs hereunder, and agrees that none of
the Guaranteed Parties will have any duty to advise any of the Guarantors of
information known to it or any of them regarding such circumstances or risks.

      SECTION 18. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. Each Guarantor represents and
warrants as to itself that all representations and warranties relating to it
contained in Sections 5.01 through 5.06 of the Credit Agreement are true and
correct.

                                      S-11
<PAGE>
      SECTION 19. SURVIVAL OF AGREEMENT. All agreements, representations and
warranties made herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Guaranty
and the Credit Agreement, the making of the Loans and the execution and delivery
of the Notes and the other Credit Documents.

      SECTION 20. COUNTERPARTS. This Guaranty and any amendments, waivers,
consents or supplements hereto may be executed in any number of counterparts and
by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so
executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts
together shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

      SECTION 21. CURRENCY OF PAYMENT. All payments to be made by the Guarantors
hereunder shall be made in the relevant currency or currencies in which the
Guaranteed Obligations are denominated in immediately available funds. If any
Guarantor is unable for any reason to effect payment of any of the Guaranteed
Obligations in the currency in which such Guaranteed Obligations are
denominated, the Guaranteed Parties may, at their option, require such payment
to be made in the Dollar Equivalent of such currency. If in any case where any
of the Guarantors shall make any such payment in the Dollar Equivalent, the
Guarantors agree to hold the Guaranteed Parties harmless from any loss incurred
by the Lenders arising from any change in the value of Dollars in relation to
such currency between the date such payment became due and the date of payment
thereof. As used "Dollar Equivalent" in this Section means, in relation to an
amount denominated in a currency other than Dollars, the amount of Dollars which
could be purchased with such amount at the prevailing foreign exchange spot rate
of the Administrative Agent at 11:00 am (local time for the Administrative
Agent) on the date of determination.

      SECTION 22. ADDITIONAL GUARANTORS. Upon execution and delivery by any
Subsidiary of the Borrower of an instrument in the form of Annex 1, such
Subsidiary of the Borrower shall become a Guarantor hereunder with the same
force and effect as if originally named a Guarantor herein (each an "Additional
Guarantor"). The execution and delivery of any such instrument shall not require
the consent of any Guarantor hereunder. The rights and obligations of each
Guarantor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the
addition of any Additional Guarantor as a party to this Guaranty.

      SECTION 23. APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS. All cash proceeds received by the
Administrative Agent from the Guarantors shall be applied by the Administrative
Agent to payment of the Guaranteed Obligations in the following order unless a
court of competent jurisdiction shall otherwise direct:

      FIRST, to payment of all reasonable costs and expenses of the
      Administrative Agent incurred in connection with the collection and
      enforcement of the Guaranteed Obligations;

      SECOND, to payment of that portion of the Guaranteed Obligations
      constituting accrued and unpaid interest and fees, pro rata among the
      Guaranteed Parties in accordance with the amount of such accrued and
      unpaid interest and fees owing to each of them;

                                      S-12
<PAGE>
      THIRD, to payment of the principal of the Guaranteed Obligations
      (including without limitation the Rate Protection Obligations included in
      the Guaranteed Obligations), pro rata among the Guaranteed Parties in
      accordance with the amount of such principal owing to each of them;

      FOURTH, to payment of any other Guaranteed Obligations (other than those
      listed above) pro rata among the Guaranteed Parties in accordance with the
      amounts owing to each of them; and

      FIFTH, the balance, if any, after all of the Guaranteed Obligations have
      been satisfied, to the applicable Guarantor or to whosoever may be
      lawfully entitled to receive them; provided, that prior to the date on
      which all Guaranteed Obligations have been paid in full and all
      commitments to make loans, issue letters of credit or otherwise extend
      credit pursuant to the Credit Agreement have been terminated, such balance
      may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be held by the
      Administrative Agent as collateral to be applied at any time thereafter
      pursuant to this Section 23.

      SECTION 24. REFERENCES TO EXISTING GUARANTY AGREEMENT. All references to
the Existing Guaranty Agreement in the "Credit Documents" (as defined in the
Existing Loan Agreement) or in any other documents delivered in connection with
the Existing Loan Agreement shall be deemed to refer to this Guaranty.

otherwise, until following the Termination Date. Any amount paid to the Grantor
on account of any such subrogation rights prior to the Termination Date shall be
held in trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties and shall immediately be
paid and turned over to the Collateral Agent for its benefit and the ratable
benefit of each other Secured Party in the exact form received by the Grantor
(duly endorsed in favor of the Collateral Agent, if required), to be credited
and applied against the Secured Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in
accordance with Section 6.1; provided, however, that if the Grantor has made
payment to the Secured Parties of all or any part of the Secured Obligations and
the Termination Date has occurred, then at the Grantor's request, the Collateral
Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties) will, at the expense of the Grantor,
execute and deliver to the Grantor appropriate documents (without recourse and
without representation or warranty) necessary to evidence the transfer by
subrogation to the Grantor of an interest in the Secured Obligations resulting
from such payment. In furtherance of the foregoing, at all times prior to the
Termination Date, the Grantor shall refrain from taking any action or commencing
any proceeding against any Credit Party (or its successors or assigns, whether
in connection with a bankruptcy proceeding or otherwise) to recover any amounts
in respect of payments made under this Security Agreement to any Secured Party.

      SECTION 2.7 Reinstatement. If any payment made in respect of any Secured
Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Secured Party and,
pursuant to Section 2.5, the security interest granted herein shall have
terminated, this Agreement and such security interest shall be reinstated and
otherwise restored all as though such payment had not been made.

      SECTION 2.8 Continuing Security Interests. This Security Agreement amends
and restates the Existing Security Agreement. Except as specifically modified
hereby, nothing contained in this Security Agreement shall be construed to
release, cancel, terminate or otherwise affect adversely all or any part of the
security interest in the Collateral granted under the Existing Security
Agreement, which security interest has been continued and confirmed by the
Grantor hereunder.

      Agent as additional Collateral; and

            (b) immediately upon the occurrence and continuance of a Specified

of the Grantor, promptly deliver such proxies and other documents, if any, as
shall be reasonably requested by the Grantor which are necessary to allow the
Grantor to exercise that voting power; provided, however, that no vote shall be
cast, or consent, waiver, or ratification given, or action taken by the Grantor
that would impair any such Collateral or be inconsistent with or violate any
provision of any Credit Document.

            SECTION 4.1.6 Organic Documents. The Grantor will not amend,

      reasonable detail;

            (g) will maintain or cause to be maintained with financially sound

      companies in the same or similar businesses, such insurance to be of such
      types and in such amounts as are customary for such companies under
      similar circumstances;

            (h) do all things reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent in
      order to enable the Collateral Agent to have control (as such term is
      defined in Article 8 and Article 9 of any applicable UCC relevant to the

      accounts, accounts and letter of credit rights) over any Collateral; and

            (i) notify the Collateral Agent if the Grantor reasonably believes
      it is entitled to recover a commercial tort claim the value of which is in
      excess of $1,000,000 and the Grantor shall take all such action reasonably

necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Security Agreement,
including:

            (a) to ask, demand, collect, sue for, recover, compromise, receive

            (d) to perform the affirmative obligations of the Grantor hereunder
      (including all obligations of the Grantor pursuant to Section 4.6).

The Grantor hereby acknowledges, consents and agrees that the power of attorney
granted pursuant to this Section is irrevocable and coupled with an interest.

      SECTION 5.2 Collateral Agent May Perform. If the Grantor fails to perform
any agreement contained herein, the Collateral Agent may itself perform, or
cause performance of, such agreement, and the reasonable expenses of the
Collateral Agent incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by the
Grantor pursuant to Section 6.4.

      SECTION 5.3 Collateral Agent Has No Duty. The powers conferred on the
Collateral Agent hereunder are solely to protect its interest (on behalf of the
Secured Parties) in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty on it to
exercise any such powers. Except for reasonable care of any Collateral in its
possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, the
Collateral Agent shall have no duty as to any Collateral or responsibility for

            (a) ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls,
      conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relative to
      any investment property, whether or not the Collateral Agent has or is
      deemed to have knowledge of such matters, or

            (b) taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior
      parties or any other rights pertaining to any Collateral.

      SECTION 5.4 Reasonable Care. The Collateral Agent is required to exercise
reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any of the Collateral in its
possession; provided, however, that the Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have
exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any of the
Collateral, if it takes such action for that purpose as the Grantor reasonably
requests in writing at times other than upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of any Event of Default, but failure of the Collateral Agent to
comply with any such request at any time shall not in itself be deemed a failure
to exercise reasonable care, provided, further that the Collateral Agent shall
have no liability to the Grantor or any Secured Party except to the extent
caused by its gross negligence or willful misconduct.

                                    REMEDIES

      SECTION 6.1 Certain Remedies. If any Event of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing:

            (a) The Collateral Agent may exercise in respect of the Collateral,
      in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise
      available to it, all the rights and remedies available of a secured party
      on default under the UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected
      Collateral) in addition to those described in Section 6.1(b) below:

                  (i) require the Grantor to, and the Grantor hereby agrees that
            it will, at its expense and upon request of the Collateral Agent
            forthwith, assemble all or part of the Collateral as directed by the
            Collateral Agent and make it available to the Collateral Agent at a
            place to be designated by the Collateral Agent which is reasonably
            convenient to both parties, and

                  (ii) without notice except as specified below, sell the
            Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or
            private sale, at any of the Collateral Agent's offices or elsewhere,
            for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and upon such other
            terms as the Collateral Agent may deem commercially reasonable. The
            Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required
            by law, at least ten days prior notice to the Grantor of the time
            and place of any public sale or the time after which any private
            sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. The
            Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of
            Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The
            Collateral Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to
            time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such
            sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to
            which it was so adjourned.

            (b) The Collateral Agent may

                  (i) transfer all or any part of the Collateral into the name
            of the Collateral Agent or its nominee, with or without disclosing
            that such Collateral is subject to the Lien hereunder,

                  (ii) notify the parties obligated on any of the Collateral to
            make payment to the Collateral Agent of any amount due or to become
            due thereunder,

                  (iii) enforce collection of any of the Collateral by suit or
            otherwise, and surrender, release or exchange all or any part
            thereof, or compromise or extend or renew for any period (whether or
            not longer than the original period) any obligations of any nature
            of any party with respect thereto,

                  (iv) endorse any checks, drafts, or other writings in the
            Grantor's name to allow collection of the Collateral,

                                      -23-
<PAGE>
                  (v) take control of any proceeds of the Collateral, and

                  (vi) execute (in the name, place and stead of the Grantor)
            endorsements, assignments, stock powers and other instruments of
            conveyance or transfer with respect to all or any of the Collateral.

      SECTION 6.2 Securities Laws. If the Collateral Agent shall determine to
exercise its right to sell all or any of the Collateral pursuant to Section 6.1,
the Grantor agrees that, upon request of the Collateral Agent, the Grantor will,
at its own expense:

            (a) execute and deliver, and cause (or, with respect to any issuer
      which is not a Subsidiary of the Grantor, use its best efforts to cause)
      each issuer of the Collateral contemplated to be sold and the directors,
      officers, managers, general partners and trustees thereof to execute and
      deliver, all such instruments and documents, and do or cause to be done
      all such other acts and things, as may be necessary or, in the opinion of
      the Collateral Agent, advisable to register such Collateral under the
      provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as from time to time amended
      (the "Securities Act"), and cause the registration statement relating
      thereto to become effective and to remain effective for such period as
      prospectuses are required by law to be furnished, and to make all
      amendments and supplements thereto and to the related prospectus which, in
      the reasonable opinion of the Collateral Agent, are necessary or
      advisable, all in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act
      and the rules and regulations of the SEC applicable thereto;

            (b) use its best efforts to qualify the Collateral under the state
      securities or "Blue Sky" laws and to obtain all necessary governmental
      approvals for the sale of the Collateral, as requested by the Collateral
      Agent;

            (c) cause (or, with respect to any issuer which is not a Subsidiary
      of the Grantor, use its best efforts to cause) each such issuer to make
      available to its security holders, as soon as practicable, an earnings
      statement that will satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the
      Securities Act; and

            (d) do or cause to be done all such other acts and things as may be
      necessary to make such sale of the Collateral or any part thereof valid
      and binding and in compliance with applicable law.

The Grantor further acknowledges the impossibility of ascertaining the amount of
damages that would be suffered by any of the Secured Parties by reason of the
failure of the Grantor to perform any of the covenants contained in this Section
and, consequently, agrees that, if the Grantor shall fail to perform any of such
covenants, it shall pay, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, an amount
equal to the value (as determined by an independent appraiser) of the Collateral
on the date the Collateral Agent shall demand compliance with this Section.

      SECTION 6.3 Compliance with Restrictions. The Grantor agrees that

                                      -24-
<PAGE>
            (a) in any sale of any of the Collateral whenever an Event of
      Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent is
      hereby authorized to comply with any limitation or restriction in
      connection with such sale as it may be advised by counsel is necessary in
      order to (i) avoid any violation of applicable law (including compliance
      with such procedures as may restrict the number of prospective bidders and
      purchasers, require that such prospective bidders and purchasers have
      certain qualifications, and restrict such prospective bidders and
      purchasers to Persons who will represent and agree that they are
      purchasing for their own account for investment and not with a view to the
      distribution or resale of such Collateral), or (ii) obtain any required
      approval of the sale or of the purchaser by any governmental authority or
      official, and

            (b) the Grantor further agrees that such compliance shall not result
      in such sale being considered or deemed not to have been made in a
      commercially reasonable manner, nor shall the Collateral Agent be liable
      nor accountable to the Grantor for any discount allowed by the reason of
      the fact that such Collateral is sold in compliance with any such
      limitation or restriction; provided that the Collateral Agent acted in
      compliance with Article 9 of the UCC.

      SECTION 6.4 Indemnity and Expenses.

            (a) The Grantor agrees to indemnify the Collateral Agent from and
      against any and all claims, losses and liabilities arising out of or
      resulting from this Security Agreement (including enforcement of this
      Security Agreement), except claims, losses or liabilities resulting from
      the Collateral Agent's gross negligence or wilful misconduct.

            (b) The Grantor will, upon demand, pay to the Collateral Agent the
      amount of any and all reasonable expenses, including the reasonable fees
      and disbursements of its counsel and of any experts and agents, which the
      Collateral Agent may incur in connection with

                  (i) the administration of each Credit Document,

                  (ii) the custody, preservation, use or operation of, or the
            sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, any of the
            Collateral,

                  (iii) the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights of the
            Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties hereunder, and

                  (iv) the failure by the Grantor to perform or observe any of
            the provisions hereof.

            (c) All of the foregoing fees, costs and expenses shall be part of
      the Secured Obligations and shall be secured by the Collateral. This
      Section 6.4 shall survive the termination of this Security Agreement.

                                      -25-
<PAGE>
      SECTION 6.5 Protection of Collateral. The Collateral Agent may from time
to time, at its option, perform any act which the Grantor fails to perform after
being requested in writing so to perform by the Collateral Agent (it being
understood that no such request need be given after the occurrence and during
the continuance of an Event of Default) and the Collateral Agent may from time
to time take any other action which the Collateral Agent reasonably deems
necessary for the maintenance, preservation or protection of any of the
Collateral or of its security interest therein.

      SECTION 6.6 Application of Proceeds. All cash proceeds received by the
Collateral Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other
realization upon, all or any part of the proceeds of the Collateral shall be
applied by the Collateral Agent to payment of the Secured Obligations in the
following order unless a court of competent jurisdiction shall otherwise direct:

            (a) FIRST, to payment of all reasonable costs and expenses of the
      Collateral Agent incurred in connection with the collection and
      enforcement of the Secured Obligations or of the security interest granted
      to the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Security Agreement;

            (b) SECOND, to payment of that portion of the Secured Obligations
      constituting accrued and unpaid interest and fees, pro rata among the
      Secured Parties in accordance with the amount of such accrued and unpaid
      interest and fees owing to each of them;

            (c) THIRD, to payment of the principal of the Secured Obligations
      (including without limitation Rate Protection Obligations included in the
      Secured Obligations), pro rata among the Secured Parties in accordance
      with the amount of such principal owing to each of them;

            (d) FOURTH, to payment of any other Secured Obligations (other than
      those listed above) pro rata among the Secured Parties in accordance with
      the amounts owing to each of them; and

            (e) FIFTH, the balance, if any, after all of the Secured Obligations
      have been satisfied, to the Grantor or to whosoever may be lawfully
      entitled to receive them; provided, that prior to the Termination Date,
      such balance may, in the discretion of the Collateral Agent, be used by
      the Collateral Agent as additional collateral to be applied at any time
      thereafter pursuant to this Section 6.6.

                                  ARTICLE VII

                            MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

      SECTION 7.1 Credit Document. This Security Agreement is a "Credit
Document" executed pursuant to the Credit Agreement and shall (unless otherwise
expressly indicated

                                      -26-
<PAGE>
herein) be construed, administered and applied in accordance with the terms and
provisions thereof, including Article X thereof.

      SECTION 7.2 Binding on Successors, Transferees and Assigns; Assignment.
This Security Agreement shall remain in full force and effect until the
Termination Date has occurred, shall be binding upon the Grantor and its
successors, transferees and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of and be
enforceable by each Secured Party and its successors, transferees and assigns;
provided, however, that the Grantor may not assign any of its obligations
hereunder without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent. Without
limiting the foregoing, any Secured Party may assign or otherwise transfer all
or any portion of the Secured Obligations held by it to any other Person, and
such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the rights and benefits
in respect thereof granted to such Secured Party under this Security Agreement
or otherwise, subject, however, to any contrary provisions in such assignment or
transfer, and to the applicable provisions of the Credit Agreement.

      SECTION 7.3 Amendments, etc. No amendment to or waiver of any provision of
this Security Agreement, nor consent to any departure by the Grantor from its
obligations under this Security Agreement, shall in any event be effective
unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Collateral Agent (on
behalf of the Lenders or the Required Lenders or Super-Majority Lenders, as the
case may be, pursuant to Section 10.02 of the Credit Agreement) and then such
waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the
specific purpose for which given.

      SECTION 7.4 Notices. All notices and other communications provided for
hereunder shall be given in the manner specified in the Credit Agreement (i) in
the case of the Collateral Agent, at the address specified for the
Administrative Agent in the Credit Agreement, and (ii) in the case of the
Grantor, at the address specified for the Grantor in this Security Agreement (or
as otherwise specified to the Collateral Agent in writing given in the manner
specified in the Credit Agreement).

      SECTION 7.5 Foreign Pledge Agreements. Without limiting any of the rights,
remedies, privileges or benefits provided hereunder to the Collateral Agent for
its benefit and the ratable benefit of each other Secured Party, the Grantor and
the Collateral Agent hereby agree that the terms and provisions of this Security
Agreement in respect of any Collateral subject to the pledge or other lien of a
Foreign Pledge Agreement are, and shall be deemed to be, supplemental and in
addition to the rights, remedies, privileges and benefits provided to the
Secured Parties under such Foreign Pledge Agreement and under applicable law to
the extent consistent with applicable law; provided, that, in the event that the
terms of this Security Agreement conflict or are inconsistent with the
applicable Foreign Pledge Agreement or applicable law governing such Foreign
Pledge Agreement, (i) to the extent that the provisions of such Foreign Pledge
Agreement or applicable foreign law are, under applicable foreign law, necessary
for the creation, perfection or priority of the security interests in the
Collateral subject to such Foreign Pledge Agreement, the terms of such Foreign
Pledge Agreement or such applicable law shall be controlling and (ii) otherwise,
the terms hereof shall be controlling.

                                      -27-
<PAGE>
      SECTION 7.6 Release of Liens. Upon (a) a Permitted Asset Sale of
Collateral or (b) the occurrence of the Termination Date, the security interests
granted herein shall automatically terminate with respect to (i) such Collateral
(in the case of clause (a) or (ii) all Collateral (in the case of clause (b)).
Upon such termination, the Collateral Agent will, at the Grantor's sole expense,
deliver to the Grantor, without any representations, warranties or recourse of
any kind whatsoever, all terminated Collateral held by the Collateral Agent
hereunder, and execute and deliver to the Grantor such documents as the Grantor
shall reasonably request to evidence such termination.

      SECTION 7.7 [INTENTIONALLY OMITTED]

      SECTION 7.8 No Waiver; Remedies. No failure on the part of any Secured
Party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate
as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right
hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any
other right. No notice to or demand on the Grantor in any case shall entitle the
Grantor to any other further notice or demand in any similar or other
circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the Collateral Agent or
other Secured Parties to any other or further action in any circumstances
without notice or demand. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not
exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

      SECTION 7.9 Headings. The various headings of this Security Agreement are
inserted for convenience only, and shall not affect the meaning or
interpretation of this Security Agreement or any provisions hereof.

      SECTION 7.10 Severability. Any provision of this Security Agreement which
is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such provision
and such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or
unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions of this Security
Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any
other jurisdiction.

      SECTION 7.11 Governing Law; Appointment Of Agent For Service Of Process;
Submission To Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial.

      VALIDITY OR PERFECTION OF THE SECURITY INTEREST HEREUNDER, OR REMEDIES
      HEREUNDER, IN RESPECT OF ANY PARTICULAR COLLATERAL ARE GOVERNED BY THE
      LAWS OF A JURISDICTION OTHER THAN THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

      THE SERVICE OF SUCH PROCESS. THE GRANTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY
      OBJECTION, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY OBJECTION TO THE LAYING OF

      HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE BRINGING OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN SUCH
      RESPECTIVE JURISDICTIONS IN RESPECT OF THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT OR ANY
      DOCUMENT RELATED THERETO. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF THE
      COLLATERAL AGENT TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR
      TO COMMENCE LEGAL PROCEEDINGS OR OTHERWISE PROCEED AGAINST THE GRANTOR IN
      ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. TO THE EXTENT THAT THE GRANTOR HAS OR HEREAFTER

      The unpaid principal amount of this demand note (this "Note") shall bear
interest at a rate equal to such rate per annum as shall be agreed upon from
time to time by the Payee and the Maker, payable at such times as shall be
agreed upon by the Payee and the Maker, and all payments of principal of and

is continuing (collectively referred to as a "Payment Event"), it will make (and
the Payee irrevocably instructs the Maker to make) all payments of principal and
accrued interest on this Note on demand to an account identified by the
Collateral Agent, and upon the delivery of such notice (which can include a
facsimile notice), the Collateral Agent shall have all rights of the Payee to
demand (and collect) payment of, and enforce all rights with respect to, the
Indebtedness evidenced by this Note.

      This Note is one of the Intercompany Notes referred to in the First
Amended and Restated Borrower Pledge and Security Agreement, dated as of January
8, 2004 (as amended, supplemented, amended and restated or otherwise modified
from time to time, the "Security Agreement"), among various Persons (including
the Payee) and the Collateral Agent and has been pledged to the Collateral Agent
(for its benefit and the ratable benefit of each other Secured Party) as
security for the Secured Obligations. Unless otherwise defined herein or the
context otherwise requires, terms used in this Note have the meanings provided
in (or by reference in) the Security Agreement.

INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (INCLUDING FOR SUCH PURPOSE SECTIONS
5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK). THE

                            PATENT SECURITY AGREEMENT

      This PATENT SECURITY AGREEMENT (this "Agreement"), dated as of
____________ ___, _____, is made between INTERMET CORPORATION, a Georgia
corporation (the "Grantor"), and THE BANK OF NOVA SCOTIA, as collateral agent
(together with its successor(s) thereto in such capacity, the "Collateral
Agent") for each of the Secured Parties.

                              W I T N E S S E T H :

      WHEREAS, pursuant to the First Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated
as of January 8, 2004 (as the same may hereafter be further amended,
supplemented, amended and restated or otherwise modified from time to time, the
"Credit Agreement"), among various parties, including the Grantor, the "Lenders"
thereunder and Scotia Capital, as administrative and collateral agent, such
Lenders have agreed to make certain financial accommodations to the Grantor;

      WHEREAS, in connection with the Credit Agreement, the Grantor has executed
and delivered a First Amended and Restated Borrower Pledge and Security
Agreement, dated as of January 8, 2004 (as amended, supplemented, amended and
restated or otherwise modified from time to time, the "Security Agreement");

      WHEREAS, pursuant to clause (e) of Section 4.5 of the Security Agreement,
the Grantor is required to execute and deliver this Agreement and to grant to
the Collateral Agent a continuing security interest in all of the Patent
Collateral (as defined below) to secure all Secured Obligations; and

      WHEREAS, the Grantor has duly authorized the execution, delivery and
performance of this Agreement; and

      NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Grantor agrees, for the
benefit of each Secured Party, as follows:

      SECTION 1. Definitions. Unless otherwise defined herein or the context
otherwise requires, terms used in this Agreement, including its preamble and
recitals, have the meanings provided in the Security Agreement.

      SECTION 2. Grant of Security Interest. The Grantor hereby pledges,
hypothecates, charges, mortgages and collaterally assigns to the Collateral
Agent, for its benefit and the ratable benefit of each other Secured Party, and
hereby grants to the Collateral Agent, for its benefit and

                                       B-1             Patent Security Agreement
<PAGE>
the ratable benefit of each other Secured Party, a continuing security interest
in all of the Grantor's right, title and interest in and to the following
property, whether now or hereafter existing or acquired by the Grantor (the
"Patent Collateral"):

            (a) all of its letters patent and applications for letters patent
      throughout the world, including all patent applications in preparation for
      filing and each patent and patent application referred to in Item A of
      Schedule I attached hereto;

            (b) all reissues, divisions, continuations, continuations-in-part,
      extensions, renewals and reexaminations of any of the items described in
      clause (a);

            (c) all of its patent licenses, including each patent license
      referred to in Item B of Schedule I attached hereto; and

            (d) all proceeds of, and rights associated with, the foregoing
      (including license royalties and proceeds of infringement suits), the
      right to sue third parties for past, present or future infringements of
      any patent or patent application, and for breach or enforcement of any
      patent license.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, "Patent Collateral" shall not include any general
intangibles or other rights arising under any contracts, instruments, licenses
or other documents relating to any of the foregoing Patent Collateral as to
which the grant of a security interest would (i) constitute a violation of a
valid and enforceable restriction in favor of a third party on such grant,
unless and until any required consents shall have been obtained or (ii) give any
other party to such contract, instrument, license or other document the right to
terminate its obligations thereunder unless and until any required consents
shall have been obtained.

      SECTION 3. Security Agreement. This Agreement has been executed and
delivered by the Grantor for the purpose of registering the security interest of
the Collateral Agent in the Patent Collateral with the United States Patent and
Trademark Office and corresponding offices in other countries of the world. The
security interest granted hereby has been granted as a supplement to, and not in
limitation of, the security interest granted to the Collateral Agent for its
benefit and the ratable benefit of each Secured Party other under the Security
Agreement. The Security Agreement (and all rights and remedies of the Collateral
Agent and each Secured Party thereunder) shall remain in full force and effect
in accordance with its terms.

      SECTION 4. Release of Liens. Upon (i) a Permitted Asset Sale of Patent
Collateral and (ii) the occurrence of the Termination Date, the security
interests granted herein shall automatically terminate with respect to (A) such
Patent Collateral (in the case of clause (i)) or (B) all terminated Patent
Collateral (in the case of clause (ii)). Upon any such termination, the
Collateral Agent will, at the Grantor's sole expense, deliver to the Grantor,
without any representations, warranties or recourse of any kind whatsoever, all
Patent Collateral held by the Collateral Agent hereunder, and execute and
deliver to the Grantor such documents as the Grantor shall reasonably request to
evidence such termination.

      SECTION 5. Acknowledgment. The Grantor does hereby further acknowledge and
affirm that the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent with respect to the
security interest in the Patent Collateral granted hereby are more fully set

      WHEREAS, pursuant to the First Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated
as of January 8, 2004 (as the same may hereafter be further amended,
supplemented, amended and restated or otherwise modified from time to time, the
"Credit Agreement"), among various parties, including the Grantor, the "Lenders"
thereunder and Scotia Capital, as administrative and collateral agent, such
Lenders have agreed to make certain financial accommodations to the Grantor;

      WHEREAS, in connection with the Credit Agreement, the Grantor has executed
and delivered a First Amended and Restated Borrower Pledge and Security
Agreement, dated as of January 8, 2004 (as amended, supplemented, amended and
restated or otherwise modified from time to time, the "Security Agreement");

      WHEREAS, pursuant to clause (e) of Section 4.5 of the Security Agreement,
the Grantor is required to execute and deliver this Agreement and to grant to
the Collateral Agent a continuing security interest in all of the Trademark
Collateral (as defined below) to secure all Secured Obligations; and

      WHEREAS, the Grantor has duly authorized the execution, delivery and
performance of this Agreement; and

      NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Grantor agrees, for the
benefit of each Secured Party, as follows:

      SECTION 1. Definitions. Unless otherwise defined herein or the context
otherwise requires, terms used in this Agreement, including its preamble and
recitals, have the meanings provided in the Security Agreement.

      SECTION 2. Grant of Security Interest. The Grantor hereby pledges,

Agent, for its benefit and

                                       C-1          Trademark Security Agreement
<PAGE>
the ratable benefit of each other Secured Party, and hereby grants to the
Collateral Agent, for its benefit and the ratable benefit of each other Secured
Party, a continuing security interest in all of the Grantor's right, title and
interest in and to the following property, whether now or hereafter existing or
acquired by the Grantor (the "Trademark Collateral"):

            (a) all of its trademarks, trade names, corporate names, company
      names, business names, fictitious business names, trade styles, service
      marks, certification marks, collective marks, logos and other source or
      business identifiers, and all goodwill of the business associated
      therewith, now existing or hereafter adopted or acquired including those
      referred to in Item A of Schedule I attached hereto, whether currently in
      use or not, all registrations and recordings thereof and all applications
      in connection therewith, whether pending or in preparation for filing,
      including registrations, recordings and applications in the United States
      Patent and Trademark Office or in any office or agency of the United
      States of America or any State thereof or any other country or political

      the foregoing, and (ii) the right to obtain all reissues, extensions or
      renewals of the foregoing (collectively referred to as the "Trademark");

            (b) all Trademark licenses for the grant by or to the Grantor of any
      right to use any Trademark, including each Trademark license referred to
      in Item B of Schedule I attached hereto;

            (c) all of the goodwill of the business connected with the use of,
      and symbolized by the liens described in, clause (a) and, to the extent
      applicable, clause (b);

            (d) the right to sue third parties for past, present and future
      infringements of any Trademark Collateral described in clause (a) and, to

      of any Trademark license and all rights corresponding thereto.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, "Trademark Collateral" shall not include any
general intangibles or other rights arising under any contracts, instruments,
licenses or other documents relating to any of the foregoing Trademark
Collateral as to which the grant of a security interest would (i) constitute a
violation of a valid and enforceable restriction in favor of a third party on
such grant, unless and until any required consents shall have been obtained or

document the right to terminate its obligations thereunder unless and until any

and Trademark Office and corresponding

offices in other countries of the world. The security interest granted hereby
has been granted as a supplement to, and not in limitation of, the security
interest granted to the Collateral Agent for its benefit and the ratable benefit
of each other Secured Party under the Security Agreement. The Security Agreement
(and all rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent and each Secured Party
thereunder) shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with its terms.

      SECTION 4. Release of Liens. Upon (i) a Permitted Asset Sale of Trademark
Collateral and (ii) the occurrence of the Termination Date, the security
interests granted herein shall automatically terminate with respect to (A) such
terminated Trademark Collateral (in the case of clause (i)) or (B) all
terminated Trademark Collateral (in the case of clause (ii)). Upon any such
termination, the Collateral Agent will, at the Grantor's sole expense, deliver
to the Grantor, without any representations, warranties or recourse of any kind
whatsoever, all terminated Trademark Collateral held by the Collateral Agent
hereunder, and execute and deliver to the Grantor such documents as the Grantor
shall reasonably request to evidence such termination.

      SECTION 5. Acknowledgment. The Grantor does hereby further acknowledge and
affirm that the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent with respect to the
security interest in the Trademark Collateral granted hereby are more fully set
forth in the Security Agreement, the terms and provisions of which (including
the remedies provided for therein) are incorporated by reference herein as if
fully set forth herein.

      SECTION 6. Credit Document. This Agreement is a "Credit Document" executed
pursuant to the Credit Agreement and shall (unless otherwise expressly indicated
herein) be construed, administered and applied in accordance with the terms and
provisions thereof, including Article X thereof.
