             LICENSED PRODUCTS.

1.03 Scope

       (a) The licenses granted herein are licenses to (i) make, have made, use,
lease, offer to sell, sell and import LICENSED PRODUCTS; (ii) make, have made,
use and import machines, tools, materials and other instrumentalities, insofar
as such machines, tools, materials and other instrumentalities are involved in
or incidental to the development, manufacture, testing or repair of LICENSED
PRODUCTS which are or have been made, used, leased, owned, sold or imported by
the grantee of such license; and (iii) convey to any customer of the grantee,
with respect to any LICENSED PRODUCT which is sold or leased by such grantee to
such customer, rights to use and resell such LICENSED PRODUCT as sold or leased
by such grantee (whether or not as part of a larger combination); provided,
however, that no rights may be conveyed to customers with respect to any
invention which is directed to (1) a combination of such LICENSED PRODUCT (as
sold or leased) with any other product, (2) a method or process which is other
than the inherent use of such LICENSED PRODUCT itself (as sold or leased), or
(3) a method or process involving the use of a LICENSED PRODUCT to manufacture
(including associated testing) any other product.

       (b) Licenses granted herein to IGC are not to be construed either (i) as
consent by the grantor to any act which may be performed by the grantee, except
to the extent impacted by a patent licensed herein to the grantee, or (ii) to
include licenses to contributorily infringe or induce infringement under U.S.
law or a foreign equivalent thereof.

       (c) The grant of each license hereunder includes the right to grant
sublicenses within the scope of such license to a Party's RELATED COMPANIES for
so long as they remain its RELATED COMPANIES. Any such sublicense may be made
effective retroactively, but not prior to the effective date hereof, nor prior
to the sublicensee's becoming a RELATED COMPANY of such Party.

       (d) The grant of each license hereunder also includes the right of a
Party to sublicense (within the scope of its own licenses) any business which is
divested by that Party or any of its RELATED COMPANIES provided that the
sublicense is granted within sixty (60) days of divestiture and the divested
business is itself a legal entity at the time of divestiture or within sixty
(60) days thereafter. Such sublicense may continue for so long as the divested
business remains a legal entity and shall extend only to the LICENSED PRODUCTS
[*] and only for the patents of the non-divesting Party [*]. Furthermore, any
sublicense shall not extend to the products sold or services furnished by a
third party which acquires the divested business, even if they are of the same
kind or similar to those of the divested business and even if made, sold or
provided by the divested business. Any payment obligations of a divesting Party
under this Agreement shall continue in effect for all LICENSED PRODUCTS,
including the LICENSED PRODUCTS of the divested business. The divested business
shall be jointly and severally liable with the divesting Party for the licensee
fees payable on account of the LICENSED PRODUCTS of the divested business.

1.04 Ability to Provide Licenses

       (a) LUCENT-GRL has received the rights to grant the licenses and releases
under LUCENT-GRL's PATENTS herein granted to IGC.

       (b) It is recognized that certain past actions of the Parties to this
Agreement, such as the assignment of title to any invention or patent, or the
granting of any licenses, may limit their ability to provide licenses hereunder.
In particular, prior to the execution of this Agreement, a Party may have
limited by contract its ability to provide licenses hereunder with respect to
certain patents or technologies. A Party's failure to meet any obligation
hereunder due to any such actions shall not constitute a breach of this
Agreement, provided that such assignment or granting of licenses was made for
bona fide business purposes and not for the purpose of frustrating or preventing
the grant of licenses hereunder.

       (c) A Party's failure to meet any obligation hereunder, due to the
assignment of title to any invention or patent, or the granting of any licenses,
to the United States Government or any agency or designee thereof pursuant to a
statute or regulation of, or contract with, such Government or agency, shall not
constitute a breach of this Agreement.

1.05 Joint Inventions

       (a) There are countries (not including the United States) which require
the express consent of all inventors or their assignees to the grant of licenses
or rights under patents issued in such countries for joint inventions.

       (b) Each Party shall give such consent, or shall obtain such consent from
its RELATED COMPANIES, its employees or employees of any of its RELATED
COMPANIES, as required to make full and effective any such licenses and rights
respecting any joint invention granted to the grantee hereunder by such Party
and by another licensor of such grantee.

       (c) Each Party shall take steps which are reasonable under the
circumstances to obtain from third parties whatever other consents are necessary
to make full and effective such licenses and rights respecting any joint
invention purported to be granted by it hereunder. If, in spite of such
reasonable steps, such Party is unable to obtain the requisite consents from
such third parties, the resulting inability of such Party to make full and
effective its purported grant of such licenses and rights shall not be
considered to be a breach of this Agreement.

forth in subsections (a) and (b) below.

       (a) An up-front license fee of [*] United States dollars (U.S. $[*]) that
is payable in two (2) installment payments as follows:

              (i)  a sum of [*] United States dollars (U.S. $[*]) payable upon

       (b) a licensee fee payable in warrants in the form of a grant to
Lucent-GRL of one hundred thousand (100,000) shares of IGC's Common Stock. Such
warrants are of the form attached hereto as Appendix C. The warrants are granted
to Lucent-GRL on the day both Parties sign this Agreement ("Grant Date"), which
shall not be later than July 14, 2000. Upon the issuance of the YBCO PATENT
APPLICATION as a United States patent, such warrants may be exercised at [*],
however, such warrants must be exercised not later than seven (7) years
following the Grant Date.

2.02 Payments

[*]. So long as the installment payments set forth in Section 2.01(a) are paid
in a timely manner to LUCENT-GRL, no late fee or interest shall be applicable.
Should such payments be considered overdue, however, then such payments shall be
subject to a late payment charge calculated at an annual rate of [*] over the
prime rate or successive prime rates (as posted in New York City) during
delinquency. If the amount of such charge exceeds the maximum permitted by law,
such charge shall be reduced to such maximum.

made prior to the date of such cessation, shall not be affected by such
cessation.

       (b) Any termination of licenses and rights of a Party under the
provisions of this Article III shall not affect such Party's licenses, rights
and obligations with respect to any LICENSED PRODUCT made prior to such
termination, and shall not affect the other Party's licenses and rights (and
obligations related thereto) hereunder.

                                   ARTICLE IV

     (e)     [*]; and

performance, each by the other, and intend that, other than set forth in Section
1.03(d), the licenses and rights granted hereunder to a Party not be extended to
entities other than such Party's RELATED COMPANIES without the other Party's
express written consent. All of LUCENT-GRL's rights, title and interest in this
Agreement and any licenses and rights granted to it hereunder may be assigned to
any of its RELATED COMPANIES or any direct or indirect successor to the business
of LUCENT-GRL as the result of any internal reorganization, which successor
shall thereafter be deemed substituted for LUCENT-GRL as the Party hereto,
effective upon such assignment; but neither this Agreement nor any licenses or
rights hereunder shall be otherwise assignable or transferable (in insolvency
proceedings, by reason of a corporate merger, or otherwise) by either Party
without the express written consent of the other Party, which consent will not
be unreasonably withheld.

4.03 Addresses

       (a) Any notice or other communication hereunder shall be sufficiently
given to IGC when sent by certified mail addressed to ______________________

4.04 Taxes

related interest and penalties), however designated, imposed as a result of the
existence or operation of this Agreement, except (i) any tax imposed upon
LUCENT-GRL in a jurisdiction other than the United States if such tax is
allowable as a credit against the United States income taxes of LUCENT; and (ii)
any net income tax imposed upon LUCENT-GRL by the United States or any
governmental entity within the United States (the fifty (50) states and the
District of Columbia). In order for the exception contained in (i) to apply, IGC
must furnish LUCENT-GRL with evidence issued by the taxing authority in such
jurisdiction that such tax has been paid. The evidence must be furnished within
thirty (30) days of issuance by the taxing authority and must be sufficient to
satisfy United States taxing authorities that such tax has been paid.

<PAGE>

       (b) If IGC is required to bear a tax, duty, levy or similar charge
pursuant to (a) above, IGC shall pay such tax, duty, levy or similar charge and
any additional amounts as are necessary to ensure that the net amounts received
by LUCENT-GRL hereunder after all such payments or withholdings equal the
amounts to which LUCENT-GRL is otherwise entitled under this Agreement as if
such tax, duty, levy or similar charge did not apply.

4.05 Choice of Law

The Parties are familiar with the principles of New York commercial law, and
desire and agree that the law of New York, exclusive of its conflict of laws
provisions, shall apply in any dispute arising with respect to this Agreement.

4.06 Integration

This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement and understanding between the
Parties as to the subject matter hereof and merges all prior discussions between
them. Neither of the Parties shall be bound by any warranties, understandings or
representations with respect to such subject matter other than as expressly
provided herein or in a writing signed with or subsequent to execution hereof by
an authorized representative of the Party to be bound thereby.

4.07 Outside the United States

       (a) There are countries in which the owner of an invention is entitled to
compensation, damages or other monetary award for another's unlicensed
manufacture, sale, lease, use or importation involving such invention prior to
the date of issuance of a patent for such invention but on or after a certain
earlier date, hereinafter referred to as the invention's "protection
commencement date" (e.g., the date of publication of allowed claims or the date
of publication or "laying open" of the filed patent application). In some
instances, other conditions precedent must also be fulfilled (e.g., knowledge or
actual notification of the filed patent application). The Parties agree that (i)
an invention which has a protection commencement date in any such country may be
used in such country pursuant to the terms of this Agreement on and after any
such date, and (ii) all such conditions precedent are deemed satisfied by this
Agreement.

<PAGE>

       (b) There may be countries other than the United States in which a Party
hereto may have, as a consequence of this Agreement, rights against infringers
of the other Party's patents licensed hereunder. Each Party hereby waives any
such right it may have by reason of any third party's infringement or alleged
infringement of any such patents.

       (c) IGC hereby agrees to register or cause to be registered, to the
extent required by applicable law, and without expense to LUCENT-GRL or any of
its RELATED COMPANIES, any agreements wherein sublicenses are granted by it
under LUCENT's PATENTS. IGC hereby waives any and all claims or defenses,
arising by virtue of the absence of such registration, that might otherwise
limit or affect its obligations to LUCENT-GRL.

4.08 Dispute Resolution

       (a) If a dispute arises out of or relates to this Agreement, or the
breach, termination or validity thereof, the Parties agree to submit the dispute
to a sole mediator selected by the Parties or, at any time at the option of a
Party, to mediation by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"). If not thus
resolved, it shall be referred to a sole arbitrator selected by the Parties
within thirty (30) days of the mediation, or in the absence of such selection,
to AAA arbitration which shall be governed by the United States Arbitration Act.

       (b) Any award made (i) shall be a bare award limited to a holding for or
against a Party and affording such remedy as is deemed equitable, just and
within the scope of the Agreement ; (ii) shall be without findings as to issues
(including but not limited to patent validity and/or infringement) or a
statement of the reasoning on which the award rests; (iii) may in appropriate
circumstances (other than patent disputes) include injunctive relief; (iv) shall
be made within four (4) months of the appointment of the arbitrator; and (v) may
be entered in any court.

       (c) The requirement for mediation and arbitration shall not be deemed a
waiver of any right of termination under this Agreement and the arbitrator is
not empowered to act or make any award other than based solely on the rights and
obligations of the Parties prior to any such termination.

       (d) The arbitrator shall be knowledgeable in the legal and technical
aspects of this Agreement and shall determine issues of arbitrability but may
not limit, expand or otherwise modify the terms of the Agreement .

       (e) The place of mediation and arbitration of this Agreement shall be New
York City.

       (f) Each Party shall bear its own expenses but those related to the
compensation and expenses of the mediator and arbitrator shall be borne equally.

       (g) A request by a Party to a court for interim measures shall not be
deemed a waiver of the obligation to mediate and arbitrate.

                                       8

<PAGE>

       (h) The arbitrator shall not have authority to award punitive or other
damages in excess of compensatory damages and each Party irrevocably waives any
claim thereto.

       (i) The Parties, their representatives, other participants and the
mediator and arbitrator shall, except as required by law, hold the existence,
content and result of mediation and arbitration in confidence.

4.09 Releases

       (c) With respect to customers (purchasers and users) of a grantee, such
releases shall not extend to any patent which is directed to (i) a combination
of a product of the kind herein licensed as of the Effective Date hereof with
any other product; (ii) a method or process which is other than the inherent use
of a product of the kind herein licensed (as furnished to such customers); or
(iii) a method or process involving the use of a product of the kind herein
licensed as of the Effective Date hereof to manufacture (including associated
testing) any other product.

such claim, action or proceeding, as well as any claim, action or proceeding to
defend any of the LUCENT-GRL PATENTS, in its sole discretion, and shall not have
any obligation to do so. If IGC notifies LUCENT-GRL of any infringement of any
LUCENT-GRL PATENT that impairs IGC's commercial use of a LICENSE PRODUCT
(including the manufacture, sale or distribution thereof), then upon IGC's
written request, LUCENT-GRL shall, in its sole discretion, take commercially
reasonable steps to terminate further infringement through enforcement of the
applicable LUCENT-GRL PATENTS.

entered into as of the 5th day of July 2000, by and between The Goldman Sachs
Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("GS Inc."), and each of the Indemnitees

supplemented from time to time pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

                                   WITNESSETH

                  WHEREAS, GS Inc. has filed and proposes to file registration
statements with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act
of 1933 (the "Securities Act") for the public offering and sale (the "Public
Offerings") of securities of GS Inc., which Securities may include shares of its
common stock (including shares to be sold by stockholders of GS Inc. or issuable
in connection with employee benefit plans), debt securities (including
medium-term notes), guarantees, back-up undertakings, rights, options, warrants,
preferred stock and/or any other securities of GS Inc. (or interests in any
employee benefit plan sponsored by or established by GS Inc.) approved by, or
pursuant to action of, the Board of Directors of GS Inc. (the "Securities");

                  WHEREAS, GS Inc. and/or stockholders of GS Inc. has sold and
may in the future sell Securities in transactions not requiring registration
under the Securities Act, including, without limitation, in private placements,
pursuant to Rule 144 or Rule 144A under the Securities Act and pursuant to
Regulation S under the Securities Act ("Unregistered Offerings" and, together
with "Public Offerings," the "Sales");

                  WHEREAS, GS Inc. has in the past requested and will in the
future request certain of the Indemnitees to execute registration statements in
the capacity or capacities listed or to be listed in registration statements, to
act as an attorney-in-fact in connection with Sales and to take other actions in
connection with such registration statements and Sales; and

                  WHEREAS, each Indemnitee is one of the following: (i) an
officer or director of GS Inc. or (ii) a person requested or authorized by the
Board of Directors of GS Inc. or any committee thereof to take actions on behalf
of GS Inc. in connection with a Sale.

                  NOW, therefore, in consideration of each Indemnitee's acting
and agreeing to act in the capacities referred to above, and for other good and
valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows:
<PAGE>   2
                  1. General. GS Inc. will indemnify and hold harmless each
Indemnitee against any Losses (as hereinafter defined), joint or several, to
which such Indemnitee may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise,
insofar as such Losses (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based
upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact
contained in any Registration Statement or Offering Circular (in each case, as
defined below) or any preliminary prospectus or preliminary Offering Circular,
prospectus, or prospectus supplement or Offering Circular supplement comprising
a part thereof or relating thereto, or any amendment or supplement to any of the
foregoing documents (collectively, the "Offering Documents") or any untrue or
alleged untrue oral statement relating to any offering contemplated by any
Offering Document, arise out of or are based upon an omission or alleged
omission to state in any Offering Document or such oral statement a material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements in any
Offering Document or such oral statement not misleading, or arise out of or are
based upon or asserted against any Indemnitee in connection with such
Indemnitee's acting in the capacity of attorney-in-fact or any other authorized
capacity in connection with any Sale; provided, however, that GS Inc. shall not
be liable in any such case to the extent that any such Losses arise out of or
are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or
alleged omission relating to such Indemnitee made in any Offering Document or
such oral statement in reliance upon and in conformity with written information
relating to such Indemnitee furnished to GS Inc. by such Indemnitee expressly
for use therein. "Registration Statement" means any registration statement
previously filed or hereafter filed by GS Inc. under the Securities Act on any
applicable form (including Forms S-8 and S-4) for the registration of any
Securities under the Securities Act, and shall include any amendment,
post-effective or otherwise, thereto and any related registration statement
filed pursuant to Rule 462 under the Securities Act. "Offering Circular" means
any offering document or instrument previously used or hereafter used by GS Inc.
to offer or sell any Securities in a transaction or series of transactions not
requiring registration under the Securities Act, including, without limitation,
any private placement memorandum or offering circular relating to an offering of
Securities made pursuant to Regulation S.

                  Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 1, GS
Inc. and each Indemnitee agree that insofar as indemnification for liabilities
arising under the Securities Act may be permitted under this Agreement to an
Indemnitee who is a director, officer or controlling person of GS Inc., in the
event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities is made by such
an Indemnitee (other than the payment by GS Inc. of expenses incurred or paid by
such Indemnitee in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) in
connection with a Registration Statement, GS Inc. will, unless in the opinion of
its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a
court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by
it is

                                       -2-
<PAGE>   3
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and GS Inc. and such
Indemnitee will be governed by the final adjudication of such question.

                  2. Losses. As used in this Agreement, the term "Losses" shall
include, without limitation, damages, losses, claims, judgments, liabilities,
fines, penalties, excise taxes, settlements, and costs, attorneys' fees,
accountants' fees, and disbursements and costs of attachment or similar bonds,
investigation costs, defense preparation costs, costs of preparing for and
presenting evidence or testimony, and any expenses of establishing a right to
indemnification under this Agreement. The term "Losses" shall not include taxes
except to the extent taxes are imposed in respect of payments otherwise made
pursuant to this Agreement, in which case such Indemnitee's Losses shall include
an amount not greater than the net taxes payable (taking into account any
deductions, credits or other tax benefits available to such Indemnitee as a
result of the Losses in respect of which such payment is made and the payment of
the taxes imposed in respect of such payment).

                  3. Enforcement. Subject to the provisions of the second
paragraph of Section 1 hereof, if a claim or request by an Indemnitee under this
Agreement is not paid by GS Inc. or on its behalf, within thirty (30) days after
a written claim or request has been received by GS Inc. and, if applicable, the
written undertaking in Section 5 hereof has been received by GS Inc., such
Indemnitee may at any time thereafter commence an arbitration proceeding in
accordance with Section 9 hereof against GS Inc. to recover the unpaid amount of
the claim or request and, if successful in whole or in part, such Indemnitee
shall be entitled to be paid also the expenses of prosecuting such proceeding.

                  4. Partial Indemnification; Contribution. If an Indemnitee is
entitled under any provision of this Agreement to indemnification by GS Inc. for
some or a portion of any Losses, but not for the total amount thereof, GS Inc.
shall nevertheless indemnify such Indemnitee for the portion of such Losses to
which such Indemnitee is entitled. If the indemnification provided for in this
Agreement is insufficient or unavailable for any reason, GS Inc. shall
contribute to relevant Losses to the maximum extent permitted by law.

                  5. Expenses. Expenses incurred by an Indemnitee in connection
with any proceeding shall be paid by GS Inc. upon request of such Indemnitee
that GS Inc. pay such expenses, but only upon receipt by GS Inc. of (i) in the
case of a Public Offering, a written undertaking by or on behalf of such
Indemnitee to reimburse GS Inc. for expenses if and to the extent that it is
ultimately determined that such indemnification is not permitted by the
Securities Act (and that contribution is unavailable with respect to such
payments) and (ii) satisfactory evidence of the amount of such expenses.

<PAGE>   4
                  6. Notice of Claim. Each Indemnitee shall promptly notify GS
Inc. in writing of any claim against such Indemnitee for which indemnification
will or could be sought under this Agreement. In addition, each Indemnitee shall
give GS Inc. such information and cooperation as it may reasonably require and
as shall be within such Indemnitee's power and at such times and places as are
not unduly burdensome for such Indemnitee.

                  7. Defense of Claim. With respect to any proceeding as to
which an Indemnitee notifies GS Inc. of the commencement thereof:

                  (a) GS Inc. will be entitled to participate at its own
         expense;

                  (b) subject to Section 7(c) hereof, GS Inc. shall not, in
         connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same
         jurisdiction against any Indemnitee and any other Indemnitees, be
         liable to such Indemnitee and such other Indemnitees for the fees and
         expenses of more than one separate law firm (in addition to a single
         firm of local counsel);

                  (c) except as otherwise provided below, to the extent that it
         may wish, GS Inc. will be entitled to assume the defense thereof, with
         counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnitee, which in GS Inc.'s
         sole discretion may be regular counsel to GS Inc. and may be counsel to
         other Indemnitees. The Indemnitees also shall have the right to employ
         one separate counsel for such Indemnitees in such action, suit or
         proceeding if such Indemnitees reasonably conclude that if they did not
         there would be a conflict of interest between GS Inc. and such
         Indemnitees, and under such circumstances the fees and expenses of such
         counsel shall be paid by GS Inc.; and

                  (d) GS Inc. shall not be liable to indemnify an Indemnitee
         under this Agreement for any amounts paid in settlement of any action,
         suit or proceeding effected without GS Inc.'s written consent. GS Inc.
         shall not settle any action, suit or proceeding in any manner which
         would impose any cost or limitation on an Indemnitee or would admit
         fault by an Indemnitee without such Indemnitee's written consent. No
         Indemnitee shall settle any action, suit, or proceeding without the
         prior written consent of GS Inc. Neither GS Inc. nor an Indemnitee will
         unreasonably withhold or delay its consent to any proposed settlement.

                  8. Non-exclusivity. The right to indemnification and the
payment of expenses incurred in defending a proceeding in advance of its final
disposition conferred

                                       -4-
<PAGE>   5
in this Agreement shall not be exclusive of or affected in any way by any other
right which an Indemnitee may have or hereafter may acquire under any statute,
certificate of incorporation, by-laws, agreement, arrangement, resolution or
instrument providing indemnification or expense payment, except that any
payments otherwise required to be made by GS Inc. hereunder shall be offset by
any and all amounts received by an Indemnitee from any other indemnitor or under
one or more liability insurance policies maintained by an indemnitor or
otherwise and shall not be duplicative of any other payments received by an
Indemnitee from GS Inc. in respect of the matter giving rise to the indemnity
hereunder. When an Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, expense
advancement or reimbursement under this Instrument and any other agreement,
arrangement, resolution or instrument of GS Inc., the Indemnitee may choose to
pursue its rights under one or more, but less than all, of such applicable
agreements, arrangements, resolutions or instruments, in which case such
Indemnitee need only comply with the standards and procedures of the agreements,
arrangements, resolutions or instruments under which it chooses to pursue its
rights.

                  9.       Arbitration.

                  (a) Subject to the provisions of the second paragraph of
         Section 1 and Section 9(b) hereof, any dispute, controversy or claim
         between an Indemnitee and GS Inc. arising out of or relating to or
         concerning the provisions of this Agreement shall be finally settled by
         arbitration in New York City before, and in accordance with the rules
         then applying of, the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. ("NYSE") or, if the
         NYSE declines to arbitrate the matter or the matter is not otherwise
         arbitrable before it, the American Arbitration Association (the "AAA")
         in accordance with the commercial arbitration rules of the AAA.

                  (b) Notwithstanding the provision of Section 9(a) and in
         addition to its right to submit any dispute or controversy to
         arbitration, GS Inc. may bring an action or special proceeding in a
         state or federal court of competent jurisdiction sitting in the State
         of Delaware, whether or not an arbitration proceeding has theretofore
         been or is ever initiated, for the purpose of temporarily,
         preliminarily or permanently enforcing the provisions of this Agreement
         or to enforce an arbitration award, and, for the purposes of this
         Section 9(b), each Indemnitee (i) expressly consents to the application
         of Section 9(c) hereof to any such action or proceeding, (ii) agrees
         that proof shall not be required that monetary damages for breach of
         the provisions of this Agreement would be difficult to calculate and
         that remedies at law would be inadequate and (iii) irrevocably appoints
         each General Counsel of GS Inc., c/o The Corporation Trust Company,
         Corporation Trust Center, 1209 Orange Street, Wilmington,

                                       -5-
<PAGE>   6
         Delaware 19801 as such Indemnitee's agent for service of process in
         connection with any such action or proceeding, who shall promptly
         advise such Indemnitee of any such service of process.

                  (c) (i) EACH INDEMNITEE HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE
         EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT LOCATED IN THE
         STATE OF DELAWARE OVER ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR
         RELATING TO OR CONCERNING THIS AGREEMENT THAT IS NOT OTHERWISE
         ARBITRATED ACCORDING TO THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 9(a) HEREOF. This
         includes any suit, action or proceeding to compel arbitration or to
         enforce an arbitration award. The parties acknowledge that the forum
         designated by this Section 9(c) has a reasonable relation to this
         Agreement, and to the parties' relationship with one another.
         Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall preclude GS Inc.
         from bringing any action or proceeding in any other court for the
         purpose of enforcing the provisions of this Section 9.

                  (ii) The agreement of an Indemnitee as to forum is independent
         of the law that may be applied in the action, and each Indemnitee
         agrees to this forum even if the forum may under applicable law choose
         to apply non-forum law. Each Indemnitee hereby waives, to the fullest
         extent permitted by applicable law, any objection which such Indemnitee
         now or hereafter may have to personal jurisdiction or to the laying of
         venue of any such suit, action or proceeding in any court referred to
         in Section 9(c)(i). The parties undertake not to commence any action
         arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any forum other than
         the forum described in this Section 9(c). The parties agree that, to
         the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, a final and
         non-appealable judgment in any such suit, action or proceeding in any
         such court shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties.

                  10. Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon and
inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties hereto and their
respective successors, assigns (including any direct or indirect successor by
merger or consolidation), heirs, executors and administrators.

                  11. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND
CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE, WITHOUT REGARD
TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAWS.

                  12. Amendment. Each party understands that from time to time
certain other persons may become Indemnitees and certain Indemnitees will cease
to be Indemnitees to the extent provided in this Section 12. Accordingly, this
Agreement may

                                       -6-
<PAGE>   7
be amended by action of GS Inc. from time to time to add additional Indemnitees,
without the approval of any other person other than such proposed additional
Indemnitees, each of whom shall execute a counterpart of the signature page of
this Agreement. This Agreement may also be amended by action of GS Inc. and
without the approval of any other person to remove an Indemnitee; provided that
such amendment shall not be effective unless GS Inc. has provided 30 days prior
written notice to the Indemnitee and, in any event, such amendment shall not
affect any rights of such Indemnitee to be indemnified in respect of Losses
associated with the acts, omissions or status of such Indemnitee through the
effective date of such termination (including the right to subsequent
indemnification and expense advancement and reimbursement relating to such acts,
omissions or status).

                  13. Waiver of Breach. The failure or delay of a party at any
time to require performance by any other party of any provision of this
Agreement, even if known, shall not affect the right of such party to require
performance of that provision or to exercise any right, power, or remedy
hereunder, and any waiver by any party of any breach of any provision of this
Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of any continuing or succeeding
breach of such provision, a waiver of the provision itself, or a waiver of any
right, power, or remedy under this Agreement. No notice to or demand on any
party in any case shall, of itself, entitle such party to other or further
notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

                  14. Severability. GS Inc. and each Indemnitee agree that the
agreements and provisions contained in this Agreement are severable and
divisible, that each such agreement and provision does not depend upon any other
provision or agreement for its enforceability, and that each such agreement and
provision set forth herein constitutes an enforceable obligation between GS Inc.
and such Indemnitee. Consequently, GS Inc. and each Indemnitee hereto agree that
neither the invalidity nor the unenforceability of any provision of this
Agreement shall affect the other provisions hereof, and this Agreement shall
remain in full force and effect and be construed in all respects as if such
invalid or unenforceable provision were omitted.

                  15. Notices. Any communication, demand or notice to be given
hereunder will be duly given when delivered in writing by hand or first class
mail to GS Inc. at its principal executive office or to an Indemnitee at its
last address appearing in the business records of GS Inc. (or to such other
addresses as a party may designate by written notice to GS Inc.).

                  16. No Assignments. No Indemnitee may assign its rights or
delegate obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of
GS Inc. Any assignment or delegation in violation of this Section 16 shall be
null and void.

                  17. No Third Party Rights. Nothing expressed or referred to in
this Agreement will be construed to give any person other than the parties to
this Agreement any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or with
respect to this Agreement or any provision of this Agreement. This Agreement and
all of its provisions are for the sole and exclusive benefit of the parties to
this Agreement and their successors and permitted assigns.

                  18. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number
of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all such
counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.
