                                       9

<PAGE>

          (a) this Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by
  the Borrower and each Guarantor and constitutes the legal, valid and binding
  obligations of the Borrower and each Guarantor enforceable against the
  Borrower and each Guarantor in accordance with its terms and the Second
  Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and constitutes the legal, valid and
  binding obligation of the Borrower and each Guarantor enforceable against the
  Borrower and each Guarantor in accordance with its terms, except as the
  enforceability thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or similar
  laws affecting creditors' rights generally; and

          (b) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

     SECTION 6. LIENS UNIMPAIRED.

           After giving effect to this Agreement, neither the modification of
the First Amended and Restated Credit Agreement effected pursuant to this
Agreement nor the execution, delivery, performance or effectiveness of this
Agreement and the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement:

          (a) impairs the validity, effectiveness or priority of the Liens
  granted pursuant to any Credit Document, and such Liens continue unimpaired
  with the same priority to secure repayment of all Obligations, whether
  heretofore or hereafter incurred; or

          (b) requires that any new filings be made or other action taken to
  perfect or to maintain the perfection of such Liens other than the actions
  required by Section 4(m) of this Agreement.

     SECTION 7. NO OTHER AMENDMENTS; REFERENCES TO THE CREDIT AGREEMENT.

          Other than as specifically provided herein or in the Second Amended
and Restated Credit Agreement, this Agreement shall not operate as a waiver or
amendment of any right, power or privilege of the Lenders under (and as defined
in) the First Amended and Restated Credit Agreement or any other Credit Document
(as such term is defined in the First Amended and Restated Credit Agreement) or
of any other term or condition of the First Amended and Restated Credit
Agreement or any other Credit Document (as such term is defined in the First
Amended and Restated Credit Agreement) nor shall the entering into of this
Agreement preclude the Lenders from refusing to enter into any further waivers
or amendments with respect to the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement.
All references to the Original Credit Agreement or the First Amended and
Restated Credit Agreement in any document, instrument, agreement, or writing
that is a Credit Document shall from and after the Amendment Effective Date be
deemed to refer to the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, and, as
used in the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, the terms "Agreement,"
"herein," "hereafter," "hereunder," "hereto" and words of similar import shall
mean, from and after the Amendment Effective Date, the Second Amended and
Restated Credit Agreement.

agreement.

Agents of the benefit of this Agreement (including the Second Amended and
Restated Credit Agreement), the other Credit Documents and each other document
relating to this Agreement.

case such representation and warranty was true and correct in all material
respects as of such earlier date).

          (d) Each Guarantor further confirms that each Credit Document to which
it is a party is and shall continue to be in full force and effect and the same
are hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects.

          (e) Each Guarantor hereby acknowledges and agrees that the acceptance
by the Administrative Agents, each Lender and each other Agent of this document
shall not be construed in any manner to establish any course of dealing on any
Agent's or Lender's part, including the providing of any notice or the
requesting of any acknowledgment not otherwise expressly provided for in any
Credit Document with respect to any future amendment, waiver, supplement or
other modification to any Credit Document or any arrangement contemplated by any
Credit Document.

accordance with GAAP and (y) no Default or Event of Default would result from
such designation or re-designation and (c) each Subsidiary of an Unrestricted
Subsidiary; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that at the time of any written designation or
re-designation by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent that any Unrestricted
Subsidiary shall no longer constitute an Unrestricted Subsidiary, such
Unrestricted Subsidiary shall cease to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary to the
extent no Default or Event of Default would result from such designation or
re-designation. On or promptly after the date of its formation, acquisition,
designation or re-designation, as applicable, each Unrestricted Subsidiary
(other than an Unrestricted Subsidiary that is a Foreign Subsidiary) shall have
entered into a tax sharing agreement containing terms that, in the reason-

                                       -47-

able judgment of the Administrative Agent, provide for an appropriate allocation
of tax liabilities and benefits.

           "VOTING STOCK" shall mean, with respect to any Person, shares of such
Person's capital stock having the right to vote for the election of directors of
such Person under ordinary circumstances.

           "WAIVABLE MANDATORY REPAYMENT" shall have the meaning provided in
Section 5.2(h).

           "WHOLLY OWNED SUBSIDIARY" of any Person means 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 required
to be held by foreign nationals) shall at the time be owned by such Person or by
one or 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.

           1.2. EXCHANGE RATES. For purposes of determining compliance under
Sections 10.4, 10.5, 10.6 and 11 with respect to any amount in a Foreign
Currency, such amount shall be deemed to equal the Dollar Equivalent thereof
based on the average Exchange Rate for a Foreign Currency for the most recent
twelve-month period immediately prior to the date of determination determined in
a manner consistent with that used in calculating Consolidated EBITDA for the
related period. For purposes of determining compliance with Sections 10.1 and
10.2, with respect to any amount of Indebtedness in a Foreign Currency,
compliance will be determined at the time of incurrence thereof using the Dollar
Equivalent thereof at the Exchange Rate in effect at the time of such
incurrence.

           SECTION 2. AMOUNT AND TERMS OF CREDIT.

           2.1. COMMITMENTS.

           (a) Subject to and upon the terms and conditions herein set forth,

           (i) each Lender having a Tranche A-3 Term Loan Commitment severally
     agrees to make a loan or loans (each a "TRANCHE A-3 TERM LOAN") on the
     Amendment Effective Date to the Borrower in Dollars, which Tranche A-3 Term
     Loans shall not exceed for any such Lender the Tranche A-3 Term Loan
     Commitment of such Lender and in the aggregate shall not exceed
     $355,910,000 (it being understood that Tranche A-1 Term Loan Lenders and
     Tranche A-2 Lenders under the First Amended and Restated Credit Agreement
     that execute and deliver the Amendment Agreement are converting their

                                       -48-
<PAGE>

     Tranche A-1 Term Loans and Tranche A-2 Term Loans under the First Amended
     and Restated Credit Agreement into Tranche A-3 Term Loans hereunder); and

           (ii) each Lender having a Tranche B-2 Commitment severally agrees to
     make a loan or loans (each a "TRANCHE B-2 TERM LOAN") on the Amendment
     Effective Date to the Borrower in Dollars, which Tranche B-2 Term Loans
     shall not exceed for any such Lender the Tranche B-2 Term Loan Commitment
     of such Lender and in the aggregate shall not exceed $1,635,100,000 (it
     being understood that Tranche B-1 Term Loan Lenders under the First Amended
     and Restated Agreement that execute and deliver the Amendment Agreement are
     converting their Tranche B-1 Loans under the First Amended and Restated
     Credit Agreement into Tranche B-2 Term Loans hereunder).

Such Term Loans (i) shall be made on the Amendment Effective Date, (ii) may at
the option of the Borrower be incurred and maintained as, and/or converted into,
ABR Loans or LIBOR Term Loans, PROVIDED that all such Term Loans made by each of
the Lenders pursuant to the same Borrowing shall, unless otherwise specifically
provided herein, consist entirely of Term Loans of the same Type, (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
Tranche A-3 Term Loan Commitment or Tranche B-2 Term Loan Commitment, as
applicable, of such Lender and (v) shall not exceed in the aggregate the total
of all Tranche A-3 Term Loan Commitments or Tranche B-2 Term Loan Commitments,
as applicable. On the Tranche A-3 Term Loan Maturity Date, all then unpaid
Tranche A-3 Term Loans shall be repaid in full. On the Tranche B-2 Term Loan
Maturity Date, all then unpaid Tranche B-2 Term Loans shall be repaid in full.

           (b) (i) Subject to and upon the terms and conditions herein set
forth, each Lender having a Renewed Revolving Credit Commitment severally agrees
to make a loan or loans denominated in Dollars (each a "REVOLVING CREDIT LOAN"
and, collectively, the "REVOLVING CREDIT LOANS") to the Borrower which Revolving
Credit Loans (A) shall be made at any time and from time to time on and after
the Amendment Effective Date and prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date,
(B) may, at the option of the Borrower be incurred and maintained as, and/or
converted into, ABR Loans or LIBOR Revolving Credit Loans, PROVIDED that all
Revolving Credit Loans made by each of the Lenders pursuant to the same
Borrowing shall, unless 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 effect thereto and to the application of the proceeds
thereof, result in such Lender's Revolving Credit Exposure at such time
exceeding such Lender's Renewed Revolving Credit Commitment at such time and (E)
shall not, 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 Renewed Revolving Credit
Commitment then in effect (it being understood that Revolving Credit Lenders
under the First Amended and Restated Credit Agreement that execute and deliver
the Amendment Agreement are converting their revolving credit commitments and
revolving credit loans under the First Amended and Restated Credit Agreement
into Renewed Revolving Credit Commitments and Revolving Credit Loans hereunder).

                                       -49-
<PAGE>

           (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
determines would be otherwise disadvantageous to it and in the event of such
request for costs for which compensation is provided under this Agreement, the
provisions of Section 3.5 shall apply). On the Revolving Credit Maturity Date,
all Revolving Credit Loans shall be repaid in full.

           (c) Subject to and upon the terms and conditions herein set forth,
the Swingline Lender in its individual capacity agrees, at any time and from
time to time on and after the Amendment Effective Date and prior to the
Swingline Maturity Date, to make a loan or loans (each a "SWINGLINE LOAN" and,
collectively, the "SWINGLINE LOANS") to the Borrower in Dollars, which Swingline
Loans (i) shall be ABR Loans, (ii) shall have the benefit of the provisions of
Section 2.1(d), (iii) shall not exceed at any time outstanding the Swingline
Commitment, (iv) shall not, 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 Renewed
Revolving Credit Commitment then in effect and (v) may be repaid and reborrowed
in accordance with the provisions hereof. 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 Renewed 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 Renewed
Revolving Credit Commitment PRO RATA based on each Lender's Renewed 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 Renewed 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 com-

                                       -50-
<PAGE>

mencement of a proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code in respect of the Borrower),
each Lender with a Renewed 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 Renewed 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)). More than one Borrowing may be
incurred on any date, PROVIDED that at no time shall there be outstanding more
than 20 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
least three Business Days' prior written notice (or telephonic notice promptly
confirmed in writing) of the Borrowing of Term Loans if all or any of such Term
Loans are to be initially LIBOR Loans, and (ii) prior written notice (or
telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) prior to 10:00 a.m. (New York
City time) on the date of the Borrowing of Term Loans if all such Term Loans are
to be ABR Loans. Such notice (together with each notice of a Borrowing of
Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to Section 2.3(b) and each notice of a Borrowing
of Swingline Loans pursuant to Section 2.3(c), a "NOTICE OF BORROWING") shall be
irrevocable and shall specify (i) the aggregate principal amount of the Term
Loans to be made, (ii) the date of the Borrowing (which shall be the Amendment
Effective 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. 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
shall give the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent's Office, (i)
prior to 12:00 Noon (New York City Time) at least three Business Days' prior
written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of each
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

                                       -51-
<PAGE>

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. 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 of
Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day). 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

                                       -52-
<PAGE>

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 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).

           2.5. REPAYMENT OF LOANS; EVIDENCE OF DEBT.

           (a) The Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent, for the
benefit of the Lenders, (i) on the Tranche A-3 Term Loan Maturity Date, the
then-unpaid Tranche A-3 Term Loans, in Dollars, and (ii) on the Tranche B-2 Term
Loan Maturity Date, the then-unpaid Tranche B-2 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) The Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent, in Dollars,
for the benefit of the Lenders of Tranche A-3 Term Loans, on each date set forth
below (each, a "TRANCHE A-3 REPAYMENT DATE"), the principal amount of the
Tranche A-3 Term Loans equal to (x) the outstanding principal amount of Tranche
A-3 Term Loans immediately after closing on the Amendment Effective Date

Repayment Date (each, a "TRANCHE A-3 REPAYMENT AMOUNT"):

; PROVIDED, in the event any Incremental Tranche B-2 Term Loans are made, such
Incremental Tranche B-2 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-2 Term Loans of the
applicable Series of Incremental Tranche B-2 Term Loans times (ii) the ratio
(expressed as a percentage) of (y) the amount of all other Tranche B-2 Term
Loans being repaid on such Repayment Date to (z) the total aggregate principal
amount of all other Tranche B-2 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.

                                       -55-
<PAGE>

           (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 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

                                       -56-
<PAGE>

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 (i) Tranche A-3 Term
Loans and (ii) Tranche B-2 Term Loans under this Agreement shall be granted by
the Lenders PRO RATA on the basis of their then-applicable Tranche A-3 Term Loan
and Tranche B-2 Term Loan Commitments, respectively. Each Borrowing of Revolving
Credit Loans under this Agreement shall be granted by the Lenders PRO RATA on
the basis of their then-applicable Renewed Revolving Credit Commitments. Each
Borrowing of Incremental Tranche B-2 Term Loans under this Agreement shall be
granted by the Lenders PRO RATA on the basis of their then-applicable
Incremental Tranche B-2 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.

                                       -57-
<PAGE>

           (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.

           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 deter-

                                       -58-
<PAGE>

mined (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 Amendment Effective
     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 Amendment Effective 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 Amendment Effective 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

                                       -59-
<PAGE>

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.

           (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 Amendment Effective 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 Original 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 Amendment Effective 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 Sec-

                                       -60-
<PAGE>

tion 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
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-2 Term Loan commitments (the "INCREMENTAL TRANCHE B-2 TERM
LOAN COMMITMENTS") and/or (y) Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments (the
"INCREMENTAL REVOLVING CREDIT COMMITMENT" and, together with the Incremental
Tranche B-2 Term Loan Commitments, the "INCREMENTAL LOAN COMMITMENTS"), by an
aggregate amount not in excess of $600,000,000 in the aggregate and not less
than $75,000,000 individually (or such lesser amount which shall be approved by
the Administrative Agent or such lesser amount that shall constitute the
difference between $600,000,000 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 In-

                                       -61-
<PAGE>

cremental 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 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-2 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 Renewed 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-2 Term
Loans made on an Increased Amount Date shall be designated, a separate series (a
"SERIES") of Incremental Tranche B-2 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 Renewed 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 Renewed
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 Renewed Revolving Credit
Commitments after giving effect to the addition of such Incremental Revolving
Credit Commitments to the Renewed Revolving Credit Commitments, (b) each
Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment shall be deemed for all purposes a
Renewed 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-2
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-2 Term Loan Commitment (each,

                                       -62-
<PAGE>

an "INCREMENTAL TRANCHE B-2 LOAN LENDER") of any Series shall make a Loan to the
Borrower (an "INCREMENTAL TRANCHE B-2 TERM LOAN") in an amount equal to its
Incremental Tranche B-2 Term Loan Commitment of such Series, and (ii) each
Incremental Tranche B-2 Term Loan Lender of any Series shall become a Lender
hereunder with respect to the Incremental Tranche B-2 Term Loan Commitment of
such Series and the Incremental Tranche B-2 Term Loans of such Series made
pursuant thereto.

           The terms and provisions of the Incremental Tranche B-2 Term Loans
and Incremental Tranche B-2 Term Loan Commitments of any Series shall be, except
as otherwise set forth herein or in the Joinder Agreement, identical to the
Tranche B-2 Term Loans; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that (i) the applicable Incremental
Tranche B-2 Term Loan Maturity Date of each Series shall be no shorter than the
final maturity of the Revolving Credit Loans and the Tranche B-2 Term Loans and
(ii) the rate of interest applicable to the Incremental Tranche B-2 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
Renewed 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 Amendment Effective 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 or (ii) 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 Renewed 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; (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

                                       -63-
<PAGE>

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 (vii) 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. 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 Renewed 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 the Existing Letters of Credit
shall be deemed Letters of Credit for all purposes under this Agreement, without
any further action by the Borrower.

           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 to the Original Credit Agreement (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 Renewed 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 Renewed
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 pertaining 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).

                                       -64-
<PAGE>

           (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 Renewed Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of such
unreimbursed payment in Dollars 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 Renewed
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 Renewed 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 Renewed 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 Renewed 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
Renewed 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 Renewed 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 account 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 Renewed Revolving

                                       -65-
<PAGE>

Credit Commitment Percentage of such reimbursement obligation, in Dollars 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 Renewed
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 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 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 disburse-

                                       -66-
<PAGE>

     ment, 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 Renewed
     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 Renewed
     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 Amendment Effective 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
Amendment Effective 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 Letters 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

                                       -67-
<PAGE>

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 Amendment Effective 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 Renewed 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.

payable quarterly in arrears on the last day of each March, June, September and
December and on the date upon which the Total Renewed 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

Issuer 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 RENEWED 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

                                       -69-
<PAGE>

shall have the right, without premium or penalty, on any day, permanently to
terminate or reduce the Renewed Revolving Credit Commitments in whole or in
part, PROVIDED that (a) any such reduction shall apply proportionately and
permanently to reduce the Renewed 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 Renewed Revolving Credit Commitment.

           4.3. MANDATORY TERMINATION OF COMMITMENTS.

           (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-2 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.

such prepayment and shall promptly be transmitted by the Administrative Agent to
each of the 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
(a) applied to Term Loans in such manner as the Borrower may determine and (b)
applied to reduce Tranche A-3 Repayment Amounts or Tranche B-2 Repayment
Amounts, as the case may be, 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 Renewed 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 Renewed 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 Invest-

                                       -71-
<PAGE>

ments satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, until the proceeds are applied
to the secured obligations).

           (c) APPLICATION OF REPAYMENT AMOUNTS. Each prepayment of Term Loans
required by Section 5.2(a)(i) shall be initially allocated PRO RATA among the
Tranche A-3 Term Loans and the Tranche B-2 Term Loans and shall be applied to
reduce the applicable 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 A-3 Term Loan Lender and Tranche B-2 Term Loan
Lender.

           (d) APPLICATION TO TERM LOANS. With respect to each prepayment of
Tranche A-3 Term Loans and Tranche B-2 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 elected by the Borrower pursuant to Section
5.2(a) or 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.

                                       -72-

           (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 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 5.2.

           (g) FOREIGN ASSET SALES. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this
Section 5.2, (i) to the extent that any of or all the Net Cash Proceeds of any
asset sale by a Restricted Foreign Subsidiary giving rise to an Asset Sale
Prepayment Event (a "FOREIGN ASSET SALE") are prohibited or delayed by
applicable local law (or, in the case of a Restricted Foreign Subsidiary that is
an Acquired Entity or Business that is subject to a binding agreement preventing
such repatriation and in effect prior to (and not entered into in contemplation
of ) the acquisition thereof) from being repatriated to the United States, the
portion of such Net Cash Proceeds so affected will not be required to be applied
to repay Term Loans at the times provided in this Section 5.2 but may be
retained by the applicable Restricted Foreign Subsidiary so long, but only so
long, as the applicable local law (or such agreement) will not permit
repatriation to the United States (the Borrower hereby agreeing to cause the
applicable Restricted Foreign Subsidiary to promptly take all actions required
by the applicable local law (or agreement) to permit such repatriation), and
once such repatriation of any of such affected Net Cash Proceeds is permitted
under the applicable local law (or such agreement), such repatriation will be
immediately effected and such repatriated Net Cash Proceeds will be promptly
(and in any event not later than two Business Days after such repatriation)
applied (net of additional taxes payable or reserved against as a result
thereof) to the repayment of the Term Loans pursuant to this Section 5.2 and
(ii) to the extent that the Borrower has determined in good faith that
repatriation of any of or all the Net Cash Proceeds of any Foreign Asset Sale
would have an adverse tax cost consequence with respect to such Net Cash
Proceeds that is material in relation to the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds,
the Net Cash Proceeds so affected may be retained by the applicable Restricted
Foreign Subsidiary, PROVIDED that, in the case of this clause (ii), on or before
the date on which any Net Cash Proceeds so retained would otherwise have been
required to be applied to reinvestments or prepayments pursuant to Section
5.2(a), (x) the Borrower applies an amount equal to such Net Cash Proceeds to
such reinvestments or prepayments as if such Net Cash Proceeds had been received
by the Borrower rather than such Restricted Foreign Subsidiary, less the amount
of additional taxes that would have been payable or reserved against if such Net
Cash Proceeds had been repatriated (or, if less, the Net Cash Proceeds that
would be calculated if received by such Foreign Subsidiary) or (y) such Net Cash
Proceeds are applied to the repayment of Indebtedness of a Restricted Foreign
Subsidiary.

           (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 op-

                                       -73-
<PAGE>

tion 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(h) 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, 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).

           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 Let-

                                       -74-
<PAGE>

ter 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 without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any
Indemnified Taxes; PROVIDED that if the 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
ex-

                                       -75-
<PAGE>

penses 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) Each Non-U.S. Lender shall to the extent it is legally entitled
to do so:

           (i) deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two copies
     of either (x) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming exemption from U.S.
     federal withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with
     respect to payments of "portfolio interest," United States Internal Revenue
     Service Form W-8BEN (together with a certificate representing that such
     Non-U.S. Lender is not a bank for purposes of Section 881(c) of the Code,
     is not a 10-percent shareholder (within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B)
     of the Code) of the Borrower and is not a controlled foreign corporation
     related to the Borrower (within the meaning of Section 864(d)(4) of the
     Code)), or (y) Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Form W-8ECI, in each
     case properly completed and duly executed by such Non-U.S. Lender claiming
     complete exemption from, or reduced rate of, U.S. Federal withholding tax
     on payments by the Borrower under this Agreement; and

           (ii) deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two further
     copies of any such form or certification (or any applicable successor form)
     on or before the date that any such form or certification expires or
     becomes obsolete and after the occurrence of any event requiring a change
     in the most recent form previously delivered by it to the Borrower;

unless in any such case any Change in Law has occurred prior to the date on
which any such delivery would otherwise be required that renders any such form
inapplicable or would prevent such Lender from duly completing and delivering
any such form with respect to it and such Lender so advises the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent. Each Person that shall become a Participant pursuant to
Section 14.6 or a Lender pursuant to Section 14.6 shall, upon the effectiveness
of the related transfer, be required to provide all the forms and statements
required pursuant to this Section 5.4(d), PROVIDED that in the case of a
Participant such Participant shall furnish all such required forms and
statements to the Lender from which the related participation shall have been
purchased.

           (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

                                       -76-
<PAGE>

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 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

                                       -77-
<PAGE>

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 AMENDMENT
EFFECTIVE DATE.

           The Borrowings on the Amendment Effective Date under this Agreement
are subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions precedent, except as
otherwise agreed between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

           6.1. CREDIT DOCUMENTS. The Administrative Agent, or Collateral

           SECTION 7. CONDITIONS PRECEDENT TO ALL CREDIT EVENTS.

           The agreement of each Lender to make any Loan requested to be made by

Mandatory Borrowings) and the obligation of the Letter of Credit Issuer to issue
Letters of Credit on the Amendment Effective Date and on any date thereafter is
subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions precedent:

           7.1. NO DEFAULT; REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. At the time of each
Credit Event and also after giving effect thereto (a) no Default or Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing and (b) all representations and
warranties made by any Credit Party contained herein (other than, with respect
to the Amendment Effective Date only, those contained in Sections 8.4, 8.8, 8.9,
8.10, 8.11, 8.12, 8.13, 8.14, 8.15, 8.16, 8.18 and 8.19) or in the other Credit
Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects with the same
effect as though such representations and warranties had been made on and 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
(other than any Revolving Credit Loan made pursuant to Section 3.4(a)) and each
Swingline Loan, the Administrative Agent shall have received a Notice of
Borrowing (whether in writing or by telephone) meeting the requirements of
Section 2.3.

           (b) Prior to the issuance of each Letter of Credit, the
Administrative Agent and the Letter of Credit Issuer shall have received a

                                       -78-
<PAGE>

           The acceptance of the benefits of each Credit Event shall constitute
a representation and warranty by each Credit Party to each of the Lenders that
all 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,
the Borrower makes 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. 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

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

statements of the Borrower contained in the Confidential Information Memorandum.
No Plan (other than a multiemployer plan) has an Unfunded Current Liability that

     Agent and the Borrower, the obligations in this paragraph shall be
     satisfied with respect to financial information of the Borrower and its

     such Event of Default or the rights, benefits, powers and remedies of the
     Administrative Agent and the Lenders under any Loan Document, (ii) a

     governmental authority with respect to the Borrower, any of its
     Subsidiaries or any Satellite relating to any matter that could reasonably
     be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

           (j) SATELLITE HEALTH REPORT. No less than annually with respect to
     each In-Orbit Satellite that has a net book value exceeding $50,000,000,
     and upon the occurrence of an Event of Default at any time upon the
     reasonable request of the Administrative Agent, (i) with respect to any one
     or more In-Orbit Satellites operated by the Borrower or

                                       -87-
<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. The Borrower will, and 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 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 the Borrower and
any such Subsidiary and discuss the affairs, finances and accounts 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 the Borrower.

           9.3. MAINTENANCE OF INSURANCE.

           (a) 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 Amendment
Effective 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, neither the Borrower nor 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 in-

                                       -88-
<PAGE>

sured 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 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 Collateral
Trustee 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 Collateral Trustee's reasonable
satisfaction for the benefit of the Collateral Trustee (including, without
limitation, by naming the Collateral Trustee 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 Collateral Trustee, 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 Collateral Trustee,
be deposited with the Collateral Trustee 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
Collateral Trustee 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 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.

                                       -89-

           9.4. PAYMENT OF TAXES The Borrower will pay and discharge, and 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
neither the Borrower, nor 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
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 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
(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 ER-

                                       -90-
<PAGE>

ISA (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.

           9.9. 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

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,

employee or consultant of the Borrower or any parent or Subsidiary of the
Borrower, (j) the entering into of any tax sharing agreement or arrangement
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 Amendment Effective Date and listed on SCHEDULE 9.9

matter involving such Person.

           9.10. END OF FISCAL YEARS; FISCAL QUARTERS. The Borrower will, for
financial reporting purposes, cause (a) each of its, and each of its
Subsidiaries', fiscal years to end on December 31 of each year and (b) each of
its, and each of its 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 the Borrower and the Administrative Agent will, and are hereby authorized

Section 10.1(A)(j) or (A)(k), the Borrower will cause (i) each direct or
indirect Domestic Subsidiary that is a Material Subsidiary (other than any
Unrestricted Subsidiary, Receivables Subsidiary or any Domestic Subsidiary owned
by a Foreign Subsidiary) formed or otherwise purchased or acquired after the
Amendment Effective Date (including pursuant to a Permitted Acquisition) and
(ii) each Subsidiary (other than any Unrestricted Subsidiary) that is not a

Subsidiary, in each case to execute a supplement to each of the Guarantee and
the Security Agreements, substantially in the form of Annex B or Annex 1, as
applicable, to the respective agreement in order to become a Guarantor under the
Guarantee and a grantor under the Security Agreements (it being understood that

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 each Foreign
Subsidiary (other than an Unrestricted Subsidiary or any capital stock
representing in excess of 65% of the issued and outstanding capital stock in any
Foreign Subsidiary) held by the Borrower or a Subsidiary Guarantor, in each
case, formed or otherwise purchased or acquired after the Amendment Effective
Date, in each case pursuant to a supplement to the Pledge Agreements 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 (other than any Unrestricted Subsidiary or any Domestic
Subsidiary wholly-owned by a Foreign Subsidiary) in connection with any
disposition of assets pursuant to Section 10.4(b), in each case pursuant to a
supplement to the Pledge Agreements, substantially in the form of Annex A
thereto and (iii) any global promissory notes executed after the Original
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 Pledge Agreements, substantially in
the form of Annex A thereto (it being understood that any such capital stock or
evidence of Indebtedness described in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) above issued by

shall be subject to Liens under the applicable Security Documents in favor of
the Administrative Agent).

           (b) The Borrower agrees that all Indebtedness in excess of $1,000,000
of 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.

           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 Amendment Effective 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

                                       -93-
<PAGE>

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 Amendment
Effective 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) 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 the Borrower and
the Restricted Subsidiaries (it being understood that any such property
constituting "Principal Property" under the Senior 1998 Notes Indenture shall be
subjected to Liens under the applicable Security Documents in favor of the
Collateral Trustee, and all other property shall be subject to Liens under the
applicable Security Documents in favor of the Administrative Agent).

           (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
Amendment Effective 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
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 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)
substantially in the form of EXHIBIT I-4 to the Original Credit Agreement (it
being understood that any such property

                                       -94-
<PAGE>

constituting "Principal Property" under the Senior 1998 Notes Indenture shall be
subjected to Liens under the applicable Security Documents in favor of the
Collateral Trustee, and all other property shall be subject to Liens under the
applicable Security Documents in favor of 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 proceeds derived from or in connection
with the sale, assignment or transfer of the FCC Licenses.

           9.16. ACCESS AND COMMAND CODES.

           (a) The Borrower will, and will cause each of its Restricted
Subsidiaries, at the request of the Administrative Agent to use commercially
reasonable efforts to obtain promptly from each provider (other than the
Borrower) of tracking, telemetry, control and monitoring services for any
Satellite, consents and agreements with the Collateral Trustee to:

           (i) deliver expeditiously to the Collateral Trustee, upon
     notification by the Administrative Agent that an acceleration pursuant to
     Section 12 has occurred, subject to having obtained any consent or approval
     of, or registration or filing with, any Governmental Authority for such
     delivery, all access codes, command codes and command encryption necessary
     to establish access to and perform tracking, telemetry, control and
     monitoring of any such Satellite, including activation and control of any
     spacecraft subsystems and payload components and the transponders thereon;

           (ii) take commercially reasonable steps necessary, upon notification
     by the Administrative Agent that an acceleration pursuant to Section 12 has
     occurred, to obtain any consent or approval of, or registration or filing
     with, any Governmental Authority required to effect any transfer of
     operational control over any such Satellite and related technical data
     (including any license approving the export or re-export of such Satellite
     to any Person or Persons as designated by the Administrative Agent); and

           (iii) deliver to the Collateral Trustee written evidence of the
     issuance of any such consent, approval, registration or filing once such
     consent, approval, registration or filing has been obtained;

           (b) If, after having used its commercially reasonable efforts to
obtain the consents and agreements referred to in clause (i) above, any such
consents or agreements shall not have been so obtained, instruct each such
provider of tracking, telemetry, control and monitoring services (and each
Satellite Manufacturer in respect of Satellites that have yet to be launched, to
the extent that the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary does not have in its
possession all items referred to in clause (iii) below) to cooperate in
providing the access codes, command codes and command encryption referred to in
said clause (i), in each case subject to having obtained any consent or approval
of, or registration or filing with, any Governmental Authority for such
delivery; and

                                       -95-
<PAGE>

           (c) At any time upon an acceleration pursuant to Section 12, and upon
notification thereof by the Administrative Agent, to promptly deliver to the

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 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 Renewed 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.

           12.13. 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, Borrower may
engage in a Permitted Equity Issuance to the Sponsors, Intelsat Bermuda or any
Affiliate of Intelsat Bermuda other than the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and
apply the amount of the Net Cash Proceeds thereof to increase Consolidated
EBITDA with respect to such appli-

                                      -113-
<PAGE>

cable quarter; provided that such Net Cash Proceeds (i) are actually received by
the Borrower (including through capital contribution of such Net Cash Proceeds
by Intelsat Bermuda 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 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 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 Agree-

                                      -114-
<PAGE>

ment or any other Credit Document or for any failure of 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.

           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 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

                                      -115-
<PAGE>

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, 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 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, 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 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 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.

                                      -116-
<PAGE>

           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 the Internal Revenue
Service or any authority of the United States or other jurisdiction 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.

           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
modified except in accordance with the provisions of this Section 14.1. The
Required Lenders may, or, with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the
Administrative Agent may, from time to time, (a) enter into with the relevant
Credit Party or Credit Parties written amendments, supplements or modifications
hereto and to the other Credit Documents for the purpose of adding any
provisions to this Agreement or the other Credit Documents or changing in any
manner the rights of the Lenders or of the Credit Parties hereunder or
thereunder or (b) waive, on such terms and conditions as the Required Lenders or
the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, may specify in such instrument,
any of the requirements of this Agreement or the other Credit Documents or any
Default or Event of Default and its consequences; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no
such waiver and no such amendment, supplement or modification shall directly (i)
forgive or reduce any portion of any Loan or extend the final scheduled maturity
date of any Loan or reduce the stated rate, or forgive any portion, or extend
the date for the payment, of any interest or fee payable hereunder (other than
as a result of waiving the applicability of any post-default increase in
interest rates),

                                      -117-

or extend the final expiration date of any Lender's Commitment or extend the
final expiration date of any Letter of Credit beyond the L/C Maturity Date, or
increase the aggregate amount of the Commitments of any Lender, or amend or
modify any provisions of Section 5.3(a) (with respect to the ratable allocation
of any payments only) and 14.8(a), in each case without the written consent of
each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby, or (ii) amend, modify or
waive any provision of this Section 14.1 or reduce the percentages specified in
the definitions of the terms "Required Lenders," "Required Tranche A-3 Term Loan
Lenders," "Required Tranche B-2 Term Loan Lenders," "Requisite Revolving Credit
Lenders" or consent to the assignment or transfer by the Borrower of its rights
and obligations under any Credit Document to which it is a party (except as
permitted pursuant to Section 10.3), in each case without the written consent of
each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby, or (iii) amend, modify or
waive any provision of Section 12 without the written consent of the
then-current Administrative Agent, or (iv) amend, modify or waive any provision
of Section 3 without the written consent of the Letter of Credit Issuer, or (v)
amend, modify or waive any provisions hereof relating to Swingline Loans without
the written consent of the Swingline Lender, or (vi) change any Renewed
Revolving Credit Commitment to a Term Loan Commitment, or change any Term Loan
Commitment to a Renewed Revolving Credit Commitment, in 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 Tranche A-3 Repayment Amount, extend any scheduled Tranche A-3 Repayment
Date or decrease the amount or allocation of any mandatory prepayment to be
received by any Lender holding any Tranche A-3 Term Loans, in each case without
the written consent of the Required Tranche A-3 Term Loan Lenders, or (x)
decrease any Tranche B-2 Repayment Amount, extend any scheduled Tranche B-2
Repayment Date or decrease the amount or allocation of any mandatory prepayment
to be received by any Lender holding any Tranche B-2 Term Loans, in each case
without the written consent of the Required Tranche B-2 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) 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.

non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction or (ii) disputes

agreements in this Section 14.5 shall survive repayment of the Loans and all
other amounts payable hereunder.

           (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 Renewed 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 giving 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 A-3 Term
     Loan Commitment, Tranche B-2 Term Loan Commitment, Tranche A-3 Term Loan or
     Tranche B-2 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;

                                      -121-
<PAGE>

           (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, 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

                                      -122-
<PAGE>

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 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, L-2 or L-3, as the case may be, evidencing the Tranche A-3
Term Loans, Tranche B-2 Term Loans and Increased Tranche B-2 Term Loans, and
Revolving Credit Loans and Swingline Loans, respectively, owing to such Lender.

                                      -123-

           (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 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.

<PAGE>

           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 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 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 Administrative Agent or any
Lender relative to subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to
herein or in the other Credit Documents.

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

           (d) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect

     with this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents, and the
     relationship between Administrative Agent and Lenders, on one hand, and the
     Borrower, on the other hand, in connection herewith or therewith is solely
     that of debtor and creditor; and

           14.15. WAIVERS OF JURY TRIAL. THE BORROWER, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT
AND THE LENDERS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN
ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT

           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 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. CITIGROUP DIRECT WEBSITE COMMUNICATIONS.

Administrative Agent any information, documents and other materials that it is
obligated to furnish to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Credit
Documents, including, without limitation, all notices, requests, financial
statements, financial and other reports, certificates and other information

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.

                                      -127-
<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 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

under the First Amended and Restated Credit Agreement arising from (i) the
Acquisition and the transactions contemplated thereby, and (ii) the Post-Closing
Transactions, on the Amendment Effective Date are waived in full; PROVIDED that
this Section 14.19 shall not constitute a waiver of any Default or Event of
Default under this Agreement nor does it constitute a waiver of the Lender's
rights in the case of any such Default or Event of Default under this Agreement.
