below) plus the Margin (as defined below).

Borrower shall pay an ordinary  interest on the outstanding  principal amount of
the Loan on each Interest  Payment Date (as this term is defined below) from the
date of the drawdown,  pursuant to Clause Second above,  until the Final Payment
Date (as this term is defined below).

Should any  Interest  Payment Date be not a Business  Day, the payment  shall be

          SECTION 2.01 The Advances.

<PAGE>

          (a) Existing Advances. Each 2000 Lender severally agrees, on the terms
and conditions hereinafter set forth, to maintain, from and after the
Restatement Effective Date, the Advance made by such 2000 Lender to the Borrower
pursuant to the Credit Agreement (or acquired by such Lender by way of an
Assignment and Acceptance prior to the Restatement Effective Date) and
outstanding immediately prior to the Restatement Effective Date. The principal
amount of Advances maintained by each 2000 Lender as of the Restatement
Effective Date is set forth opposite such 2000 Lender's name on Annex I hereto
under the caption "Advances."

          (b) New Advances. Each 2001 Lender severally agrees, on the terms and
conditions hereinafter set forth, to make a single Advance to the Borrower on
the Restatement Effective Date in an aggregate amount not to exceed the amount

"Advances" or, if such 2001 Lender has entered into one or more Assignments and
Acceptances, set forth in the Register maintained by the Administrative Agent
pursuant to Section 8.07(c).

          SECTION 2.02 Scheduled Repayments; Notes.

          (a) On the dates set forth below, the Borrower shall repay to the
Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders, the unpaid outstanding
principal amount of the Advances evidenced by the Notes, in immediately
available funds, as is set forth opposite such date (each such date a "Scheduled
Repayment Date") as follows:

             Scheduled Repayment Date           Amount

             October 31, 2002              U.S. $19,500,000
             October 31, 2003              U.S. $26,000,000
             Maturity Date                 U.S. $84,500,000

          (b) The Advance or Advances of each Lender to the Borrower shall be
evidenced by a Note payable to the order of such Lender in an amount equal to
such Lender's Advance or Advances. Each Lender shall record in its records, and
on the schedule attached to its Note, the date and amount of each Advance made
by such Lender thereunder, each repayment or prepayment thereof, whether such
Advance was a Eurodollar Rate Advance or an Alternate Base Rate Advance, and, in
the case of Eurodollar Rate Advances, the dates on which the Interest Period for
such Advances shall begin and end. The aggregate unpaid principal amount so
recorded shall be rebuttable presumptive evidence of the principal amount owing
and unpaid on such Note. The failure to so record or any error in so recording
any such amount shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligations of
the Borrower hereunder or under any Note to repay the principal amount of each
Advance together with all interest accruing thereon.

          SECTION 2.03 Prepayments.

          (a) Optional. The Borrower may, upon at least five Business Days'
notice to the Administrative Agent at any time after 30 days from the
Restatement Effective Date stating the proposed date and aggregate principal
amount of the prepayment, and, if such notice is given, the Borrower shall,
prepay the outstanding

<PAGE>

principal amount of the Advances in whole or ratably in part in the inverse
order of maturity, together with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment
on the principal amount prepaid, without premium or penalty but subject to
breakage costs pursuant to Section 2.11; provided, however, that each partial
prepayment shall be in a minimum aggregate principal amount of U.S. $10,000,000
or an integral multiple of U.S. $1,000,000 in excess thereof. Prepayments of
Advances will be without premium or penalty; provided that prepayments of
Eurodollar Rate Advances not made on the last day of the Interest Period shall
be subject to Section 2.11. Any amount prepaid under this Section 2.03(a) may
not be reborrowed. All prepayments under this Section 2.03(a) shall be made
together with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the principal
amount prepaid.

          (b) Mandatory.

          (i) From Net Issuance Proceeds. The Borrower shall prepay ratably the
     outstanding principal amount of the Advances in the inverse order of
     maturity in an aggregate amount equal to the amount by which the cumulative
     Net Issuance Proceeds of any public or private issuance, sale or incurrence
     of any additional Debt (other than (x) short-term Debt solely used to
     finance working capital or one or more bottling company acquisitions, and
     (y) Debt consisting of guarantees by the Borrower of the Debt of any
     Subsidiary) in the international financial markets by the Borrower exceeds
     U.S. $400,000,000 during the term of this Agreement, so long as such Debt
     (x) is scheduled to mature in whole and in part after the date six months
     after the Maturity Date and (y) is applied to repay or refinance
     then-outstanding Debt of the Borrower or any Subsidiary (such conditions in
     subclauses (x) and (y) being the "Maturity Conditions"); provided that (I)
     if any such Debt issued, sold or incurred does not satisfy the Maturity
     Conditions, 100% of the Net Issuance Proceeds thereof shall be applied to
     prepay ratably the outstanding principal amount of the Advances in the
     inverse order of maturity, (II) notwithstanding subclause (I) above, up to
     U.S. $100,000,000 of such Debt during the term of this Agreement need not
     satisfy the Maturity Conditions so long as (A) such Debt matures in full at
     least nine months prior to the Maturity Date and, upon refinancing, such
     Debt will satisfy the Maturity Conditions, and (B) the proceeds of such
     Debt are applied to one or more bottling company acquisitions or working
     capital financing, and (III) if any such Debt issued, sold or incurred is
     voluntarily prepaid prior to the Maturity Date, the Borrower shall prepay
     ratably the outstanding principal amount of the Advances in an aggregate
     amount equal to the amount of such prepayment.

          (ii) From Net Cash Proceeds. The Borrower shall prepay ratably the
     outstanding principal amount of the Advances in the inverse order of
     maturity in an aggregate amount equal to the amount by which the cumulative
     Net Cash Proceeds from the sale, lease, transfer or other disposition of
     (A) any assets (other than shares of capital stock) of the Borrower or any
     of its Subsidiaries (other than sales of inventory, scrap and by-products
     in the ordinary course of business and sales of vehicles or equipment in
     the ordinary course of business, provided that the proceeds thereof, in the
     case of vehicles and equipment, are

     promptly reinvested in comparable vehicles and equipment) or (B) any
     capital stock of any Subsidiary of the Borrower exceeds, in the aggregate
     under both subclauses (A) and (B) above, an amount equal to 5.5% of
     Consolidated Tangible Net Assets (calculated as of the end-date of the last
     quarter for which Consolidated financial statements have been distributed);
     provided that, in any such case under subclause (A) or (B) above, (I) in
     the case of any such Net Cash Proceeds received by any such Subsidiary that
     is not a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of the Borrower, the amount of such
     prepayment shall equal the proportion of such Net Cash Proceeds that is
     equal to the percentage of capital stock of such Subsidiary owned directly
     or indirectly by the Borrower (after giving effect to any applicable sale
     of shares of capital stock); (II) no prepayment shall be required in
     respect of Net Cash Proceeds of any sale, lease, transfer or other
     disposition of any assets by any Subsidiary to the Borrower or any other
     Subsidiary or by the Borrower to any Subsidiary; and (III) at least an
     amount equal to 2.75% of Consolidated Tangible Net Assets (calculated as of
     the end-date of the last quarter for which Consolidated financial
     statements have been distributed) of such cumulative Net Cash Proceeds
     shall be reinvested promptly in the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (it
     being understood that if such reinvestment does not occur, all such
     cumulative Net Cash Proceeds in excess of an amount equal to 2.75% of
     Consolidated Tangible Net Assets (calculated as of the end-date of the last
     quarter for which Consolidated financial statements have been distributed)
     shall be applied to prepay Advances).

          (iii) Making of Prepayments. Any prepayment pursuant to this clause
     (b) shall be made on the second Business Day (or sooner if elected by the
     Borrower) following the date of receipt by the Borrower of such Net
     Issuance Proceeds or such Net Cash Proceeds, as the case may be.

          (iv) Accrued Interest. All prepayments under this clause (b) shall be
     made together with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the
     principal amount prepaid.

          (v) Timing of Prepayments. Unless otherwise agreed by the Required
     Lenders, any prepayment made pursuant to this clause (b), shall be subject
     to Section 2.11.

          SECTION 2.04 Interest.

          (a) Ordinary Interest. (i) The Borrower shall pay interest on the
unpaid principal amount of each Eurodollar Rate Advance made to it from the date
of such Advance until such principal is paid in full, at a rate per annum equal
to the sum of (A) the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period for such Advance
plus (B) the Applicable Margin, payable in arrears on the last day of such
Interest Period, on the date of any payment or prepayment of such principal
amount and on the Maturity Date.

          (ii) The Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of
     each Alternate Base Rate Advance made from the date of such Advance

<PAGE>

     until such principal is paid in full, at a rate per annum equal to the sum
     of (A) the Alternate Base Rate plus (B) the Applicable Margin, payable in
     arrears on the last Business Day of each month, on the date of any payment
     or prepayment of such principal amount and on the Maturity Date.

          (b) Default Interest. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance
of any Event of Default, the Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal
amount of each Advance made to it and on the unpaid amount of all interest, fees
and other amounts payable hereunder that is not paid when due, payable in
arrears on the dates referred to in clause (a) above and on demand, at a rate
per annum equal at all times to 2.0% per annum above (x) the rate per annum
required to be paid on Eurodollar Rate Advances outstanding at the time pursuant
to clause (a) above, in the case of the unpaid principal amount of Eurodollar
Rate Advances, and (y) the rate per annum required to be paid on Alternate Base
Rate Advances outstanding at the time pursuant to clause (a) above, in the case
of the unpaid principal amount of Alternate Base Rate Advances, interest, fees
and such other amounts.

          SECTION 2.05 Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative
Agent, such fees as shall be agreed to in writing among the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent.

          SECTION 2.06 Continuations, Interest Rate Determination.

          (a) The Borrower may continue all or any part of any Eurodollar Rate
Advances in a minimum principal amount of U.S. $10,000,000 or a higher integral
multiple of U.S. $1,000,000 (or, if smaller than U.S. $10,000,000, the entire
outstanding balance of all remaining Advances) into another Eurodollar Rate
Advance, by giving written notice thereof to the Administrative Agent not later
than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) at least three Business Days prior to the
proposed date of such continuation. Each such notice shall be effective upon
receipt by the Administrative Agent, shall be irrevocable, and shall specify the
date and amount of such continuation, the Advances to be so continued, and the
applicable Interest Period. Promptly upon receipt of such notice, the
Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender thereof. Each continuation shall
be on a Business Day.

          (b) Failing receipt by the Administrative Agent of any notice of
continuation in accordance with clause (a) above, the Borrower shall be
conclusively deemed to have elected to continue all Eurodollar Rate Advances for
an Interest Period of three months.

          (c) The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the Borrower
and the Lenders of the applicable interest rate determined by the Administrative
Agent for purposes of Section 2.04(a) or (b).

          SECTION 2.07 Increased Costs, Etc.

          (a) If, due to either (i) the introduction of or any change in, or in
the interpretation of, any law or regulation or (ii) the need to comply with any
guideline or

request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not
having the force of law) adopted or made after the date of this Agreement
(except, with respect to both subclauses (i) and (ii), any law, regulation,
guideline or request addressed in Section 2.09), there shall be any increase in
the cost to any Lender or any Person controlling such Lender of agreeing to make
or making, funding or maintaining Advances, then the Borrower shall from time to
time, upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the
Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such
Lender additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender for such
increased cost; provided, however, that, before making any such demand, each
Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and
legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different Lending Office if
the making of such a designation would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount
of, such increased cost and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such
Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. Such Lender shall promptly
notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower in writing of the occurrence of
any such event, such notice to state, in reasonable detail, the reasons therefor
and the additional amounts required fully to compensate such Lender for such
increased cost or reduced amount; provided, however, that notice in respect of
any additional amounts payable hereunder in respect of any Interest Period shall
not be effective, and no such additional amounts shall be payable hereunder in
respect of such Interest Period, unless such notice is given not later than the
360th day following the Maturity Date. No such additional amounts shall be
payable hereunder for increased costs incurred in respect of any period from 90
days after the date on which such Lender becomes actually aware of such
increased cost to the date on which such Lender delivers notice of such
increased cost, except for additional amounts for increased costs incurred as a
result of the retroactive application of any law, rule or regulation. A
certificate as to the amount of such increased cost, submitted to the Borrower
by such Lender, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent
manifest error.

          (b) If any Lender determines that (i) the introduction of or any
change in, or in the interpretation of, any law or regulation or (ii) the need
to comply with any guideline or request from any central bank or other
Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law) adopted or made
after the date hereof affects or would affect the amount of capital required or
expected to be maintained by such Lender or any Person controlling such Lender
and such Lender determines that the amount of such capital is increased as a
result of such Lender's Advance made hereunder and other commitments of this
type, then, upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the
Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for
the account of such Lender, from time to time as specified by such Lender,
additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender in light of such
circumstances, to the extent that such Lender reasonably determines such
increase in capital to be allocable to the existence of such Lender's Advance
made hereunder; provided, however, that, before making any such demand, each
Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and
legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different Lending Office if
the making of such a designation would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount
of, such increase in capital and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such
Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. Such Lender shall

<PAGE>

promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower in writing of the
occurrence of any such event, such notice to state, in reasonable detail, the
reasons therefor and the additional amounts required fully to compensate such
Lender for such increased cost or reduced amount; provided, however, that notice
in respect of any additional amounts payable hereunder in respect of any
Interest Period shall not be effective, and no such additional amounts shall be
payable hereunder in respect of such Interest Period, unless such notice is
given not later than the 360th day following the Maturity Date. No such
additional amounts shall be payable hereunder for increased capital requirements
for any period from 90 days after the date on which such Lender becomes actually
aware of such increased capital requirements to the date on which such Lender
delivers notice of such increased capital requirements, except for additional
amounts for increased capital requirements as a result of the retroactive
application of any law, rule or regulation. A certificate as to such amounts
submitted to the Borrower by such Lender, shall be conclusive and binding for
all purposes, absent manifest error.

          (c) If, with respect to any Eurodollar Rate Advances, the Lenders who
are owed at least 20% of the then-aggregate unpaid principal amount thereof
notify the Administrative Agent that the Eurodollar Rate for any Interest Period
for such Eurodollar Rate Advances will not adequately reflect the cost to such
Lenders of making, funding or maintaining their Eurodollar Rate Advances for
such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall forth-with so notify the
Borrower and the Lenders, whereupon (i) each such Eurodollar Rate Advance will
automatically, on the last day of the then-existing Interest Period therefor,
convert into an Alternate Base Rate Advance and (ii) the obligation of the
Lenders to make Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended until the
Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower that such Lenders have determined
that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist.

          (d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the
introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or
regulation shall make it unlawful, or any central bank or other Governmental
Authority shall assert that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its Lending Office
to perform its obligations hereunder to make Eurodollar Rate Advances or to
continue to fund or maintain Eurodollar Rate Advances hereunder, then, on notice
thereof and demand therefor by such Lender to the Borrower through the
Administrative Agent, (i) each Eurodollar Rate Advance of such Lender will
automatically, upon such demand, convert, at the end of the current Interest
Period therefor (or sooner if required by law), into an Alternate Base Rate
Advance and (ii) the obligation of such Lender to make Eurodollar Rate Advances
shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower that
such Lender has determined that the circumstances causing such suspension no
longer exist; provided, however, that, before making any such demand, such
Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and
legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different Lending Office if
the making of such a designation would allow such Lender or its Lending Office
to continue to perform its obligations to make Eurodollar Rate Advances or to
continue to fund or maintain Eurodollar Rate Advances and would not, in the
judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

<PAGE>

          SECTION 2.08 Payments and Computations.

          (a) The Borrower shall make each payment hereunder and under the Notes
not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the day when due in U.S.
Dollars to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent's Account in
same day funds. The Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be
distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal, interest or fees
ratably (other than amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.07(a), 2.07(b), 2.09
or 2.11) to the Lenders for the account of their Lending Offices, and like funds
relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any Lender to such Lender
for the account of its Lending Office, in each case to be applied in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement. Upon its acceptance of an Assignment and
Acceptance and recording of the information contained therein in the Register
pursuant to Section 8.07(d), from and after the effective date of such
Assignment and Acceptance, the Administrative Agent shall make all payments
hereunder and under the Notes in respect of the interest assigned thereby to the
Lender assignee thereunder, and the parties to such Assignment and Acceptance
shall make all appropriate adjustments in such payments for periods prior to
such effective date directly between themselves.

          (b) If the Administrative Agent receives funds for application to the
Obligations under the Loan Documents under circumstances for which the Loan
Documents do not specify the Advances to which, or the manner in which, such
funds are to be applied, the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be
obligated to, elect to distribute such funds to each Lender ratably in
accordance with such Lender's proportionate shares of the principal amount of
all outstanding Advances, in repayment or prepayment of such of the outstanding
Advances or other Obligations owed to such Lender as the Administrative Agent
shall direct.

          (c) All computations of interest based on the Eurodollar Rate or the
Alternate Base Rate shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a
year of 360 days and 365/66 days, respectively, and for the actual number of
days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the
period for which such interest is payable. Each determination by the
Administrative Agent of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive
and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

          (d) Whenever any payment hereunder or under the Notes shall be stated
to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the
next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall, in such case, be
included in the computation of payment of interest; provided, however, that, if
such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of Eurodollar
Rate Advances to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment
shall be made on the next preceding Business Day.

          (e) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from
the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to any Lender
hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment in full, the
Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment in full
to the Administrative Agent on such

<PAGE>

date and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause
to be distributed to each such Lender on such due date an amount equal to the
amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent the Borrower shall not have so
made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent, each such Lender shall
repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to
such Lender together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such
amount is distributed to such Lender until the date such Lender repays such
amount to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate.

          (f) The Borrower shall make all payments hereunder and under the Notes
regardless of any defense or counterclaim, including, without limitation, any
defense or counterclaim based on any law, rule or policy which is now or
hereafter promulgated by any Governmental Authority or regulatory body and which
may adversely affect the Borrower's obligation to make, or the right of the
holder of any Note to receive, such payments.

          SECTION 2.09 Taxes.

          (a) Any and all payments to be made by the Borrower hereunder, under
the Notes, or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and
without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts,
deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto,
excluding, in the case of each Lender and any Agent, respectively, franchise
taxes, taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings (and all
liabilities with respect thereto) imposed on or measured by reference to net
income which are imposed on such Lender or such Agent by (i) the United States
of America, (ii) any political subdivision of the United States or (iii) any
foreign jurisdiction or political subdivision thereof under the laws of which
such Agent or such Lender is organized, or in which such Lender or such Agent,
respectively, has qualified to do or in fact does business (all such
non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and
liabilities being hereinafter referred to as "Taxes"). If the Borrower shall be
required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable
hereunder or under any Note to any Lender or any Agent, (x) the sum payable
shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required
deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under
this Section) such Lender or such Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount
equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (y)
the Borrower shall make such deductions and (z) the Borrower shall pay the full
amount required to be deducted to the relevant taxing authority or other
authority in accordance with applicable law. Each Agent and every Lender shall
provide to the Borrower such forms and certifications as are reasonably
necessary to avoid or reduce the Borrower's obligation to deduct Taxes from any
payment hereunder; provided that neither any Agent nor any Lender shall be
required to furnish any such form or certification to the extent such Person
reasonably determines (consistent with its internal policy and legal and
regulatory restrictions) that such action would be disadvantageous to such
Person.

          (b) In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay any present or future
stamp or documentary taxes or any excise or property taxes or any other charges
or

<PAGE>

similar levies that arise from any payment made hereunder or under the Notes or
any other Loan Documents or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or
otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any other Loan Documents
(hereinafter referred to as "Other Taxes").

          (c) The Borrower will indemnify each Lender and Agent for the full
amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes or
Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section)
paid by such Lender or such Agent (as the case may be) and any liability
(including penalties, additions to tax, interest and expenses) arising therefrom
or with respect thereto whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly
or legally asserted. This indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the
date such Lender or such Agent (as the case may be) make written demand
therefor.

          (d) Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Taxes by the
Borrower, the Borrower will furnish to the Administrative Agent, at its address
referred to in Section 8.02, the original or a certified copy of a receipt
evidencing payment thereof (or, if a receipt cannot be obtained in the
applicable jurisdiction, other appropriate evidence of payment thereof).

          (e) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the
Borrower hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Borrower contained in
this Section shall survive the payment in full of principal and interest
hereunder and under the Notes.

          SECTION 2.10 Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Lender shall obtain any
payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of
set-off, or otherwise) on account of the Advance owing to it (other than
pursuant to Section 2.07(a), 2.07(b), 2.09 or 2.11) in excess of its ratable
share of payments on account of the Advances obtained by all the Lenders, such
Lender shall forthwith purchase from the other Lenders such participations in
the Advances owing to them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender
to share the excess payment ratably with each of them; provided, however, that
if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such
purchasing Lender, the purchase from such Lender shall be rescinded and such
Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price to the extent of
such Lender's ratable share of such recovery together with an amount equal to
such Lender's ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of
such Lender's required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the
purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the
purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered. The Borrower
agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender
pursuant to this Section may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise
all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off) with respect to such
participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the
Borrower in the amount of such participation.

          SECTION 2.11 Funding Losses. In the event any Lender shall incur any
loss, cost, or expense (including any loss, cost, or expense incurred by reason
of the

<PAGE>

liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such
Lender to make, continue, or maintain any portion of the principal amount of any
Eurodollar Rate Advance), but excluding any loss of any margin above the
Eurodollar Rate, as a result of:

          (a) any repayment or prepayment of the principal amount of any
Eurodollar Rate Advances on a date other than the scheduled last day of the
Interest Period applicable thereto;

          (b) any Eurodollar Rate Advances not being made in accordance with the
request for Eurodollar Rate Advances delivered to the Administrative Agent as
set forth in Section 3.01(a); or

          (c) any Eurodollar Rate Advances not being continued for the Interest
Period specified in accordance with the relevant notice therefor;

then, upon the written notice of such Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the
Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall, within five days of its receipt
thereof, pay directly to such Lender (for its own account) such amount as will
(in the reasonable determination of such Lender) reimburse such Lender for such
loss, cost or expense. Such written notice (which shall include all calculations
in reasonable detail) shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and
binding on the Borrower.

          SECTION 2.12 Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the advances made by the
Exiting Lenders and the Advances made by the 2000 Lenders under the Credit
Agreement were used by the Borrower (i) to refinance Debt under the U.S.
$300,000,000 Credit Agreement dated as of March 15, 1999 among the Borrower, the
lenders party thereto, the Administrative Agent, The Chase Manhattan Bank, as
syndication agent, and BankBoston, N.A., as documentation agent, (ii) to
refinance Debt under the 1999 Agreement, (iii) to refinance Debt under the
Coca-Cola Facility, (iv) to fund capital expenditures and (v) for general
corporate purposes. The proceeds of the Advances made by the 2001 Lenders on the
Restatement Effective Date shall be used solely (and the Borrower agrees that it
shall use such proceeds solely) (x) to repay in full the advances made by the
Exiting Lenders under the Credit Agreement and (y) to prepay U.S. $545,454.55 of
the Advances made by Cooperatieve Centrale Raiffeisen Boerenleenbank B.A.,
"Rabobank Nederland", New York Branch under the Credit Agreement.

incorporated under the laws of one of the States comprising the United States,
in good standing) under the laws of its jurisdiction of formation, (ii) is duly
qualified as a foreign corporation in each other jurisdiction in which it owns
or leases property or in which the conduct of its business requires it to so
qualify or be licensed except where failure to so qualify would not have a
Material Adverse Effect, and (iii) has all requisite corporate power and
authority to own or lease and operate its properties and to carry on its
business as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted except where the
failure to do so would be reasonably likely not to result in a Material Adverse
Effect on the Borrower and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole.

          (b) Set forth on Item 4.01(b) of the Disclosure Schedule is a complete
and accurate organizational chart for the Borrower and its Subsidiaries showing

any law, rule, regulation (including, without limitation, Regulation X of the
Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), order, writ, judgment,
injunction, decree, determination or award, (iii) except as set forth on Item
4.01(c) of the Disclosure Schedule, conflict with or result in the breach of,
constitute a default under, or cause or permit any mandatory prepayment or
acceleration of the maturity of, any material contract, loan agreement,
indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, lease or other instrument binding on or
affecting the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their properties or
assets, or (iv) result in or require the

<PAGE>

creation or imposition of any Lien upon or with respect to any of the properties
or assets of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries. Neither the Borrower nor
any of its Subsidiaries is in violation of any law, rule, regulation, order,
writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award or in breach of any
such contract, loan agreement, indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, lease or
other instrument, the violation or breach of which would be reasonably likely to
result in a Material Adverse Effect.

          (d) No authorization or approval or other action by, and no notice to

generally and general principles of equity.

          (f) The Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries is in compliance in all
material respects with all applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders,

whole.

Subsidiaries as at December 31, 2000, and the related Consolidated statements of

by an opinion of Arthur Andersen & Co., independent public accountants, copies
of which have been furnished to each Lender, fairly present in all material
respects the Consolidated financial condition of the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries as at such dates and the Consolidated results of the operations of
the Borrower and its Subsidiaries for the periods ended on such dates, all in
accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis.

furnished by or on behalf of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries to the
Administrative Agent or any Lender will be, prepared in good faith and represent
or will represent the Borrower's realistic views as to such performance at the
time such projections were prepared.

          (j) Except as set forth in Item 4.01(j) of the Disclosure Schedule,
there is no action, suit, investigation, litigation or proceeding affecting the
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (and, with respect to unasserted claims, to
the knowledge of the Borrower) (including, but not limited to, any Environmental
Action) pending or threatened before any court, Governmental Authority or
arbitrator that (i) if adversely determined, would be reasonably likely to
result in a Material Adverse Effect or (ii) would be reasonably likely to
adversely affect the legality, validity or enforceability of this Agreement, the
Notes, any other Loan Document, or the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby or thereby.

          (k) (i) Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries has taken any
action (including any steps to terminate any Compensation Plan), nor made any
omission (including any failure to make any required contribution to any
Compensation Plan), with respect to any Compensation Plan, in either case which
(a) would result in a liability to the Borrower or any Subsidiary in excess of
U.S. $1,000,000 (or the equivalent in any other currency), (b) would give rise
to a Lien over any of its properties, assets, or revenues, or (c) would be
reasonably likely to result in a Material Adverse Effect; and

          (ii) the Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries is in compliance in all
     material respects with the regulatory requirements of applicable law
     relating to pensions, employee retirement benefits and social security and
     has made all payments required to be made pursuant thereto. Except as set
     forth in Item 4.01(k) of the Disclosure Schedule, neither the Borrower nor
     any of its Subsidiaries sponsors, or is required to contribute to, any
     Compensation Plan, except such Compensation Plans that do not require
     funding and that may be terminated by the Borrower or the applicable
     Subsidiary, as the case may be, without its incurring any liability.

          (l) Except as set forth in Item 4.01(1) of the Disclosure Schedule,

reports required to be filed, and have paid all material taxes, assessments,

<PAGE>

appropriate proceedings and for which adequate reserves have been provided in
accordance with GAAP or (ii) where the failure to do so could not reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. There is no proposed tax assessment

Subsidiaries comply in all material respects with all Environmental Laws, all
materially necessary Environmental Permits have been obtained and are in effect
for the operations and properties of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, the
Borrower and its Subsidiaries are in compliance in all material respects with
all such Environmental Permits, except where the failure to comply with or
obtain such Environmental Permits would not be reasonably likely to result in a

of an Environmental Action against the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or
any of their properties that would be reasonably likely to result in a Material
Adverse Effect or (B) cause any such property to be subject to any material
restrictions on ownership, occupancy, use or transferability under any
Environmental Law; and

          (ii) Hazardous Materials have not been generated, used, treated,
     handled, stored or disposed of on, or released or transported to or from,

Existing Debt Agreement, indenture, loan or credit agreement or any lease or
other agreement or instrument or subject to any charter or corporate restriction

immunity from jurisdiction of any court or from set-off or any legal process
(whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in
aid of execution, execution or otherwise) under the laws of the jurisdiction of
its incorporation.

          (r) The Borrower is not engaged principally, or as one of its
important activities, in the business of extending credit for the purpose of
purchasing or carrying Margin Stock. None of the proceeds of any Advance will be

dividend policy whereby an amount equal to between 15% and 25% of the Borrower's
Consolidated net income from the previous year will be paid to shareholders each
year, in quarterly distributions, as determined by the Board of Directors. Such
dividend policy remains in effect as of the date of this Agreement. Pursuant to
the Certificate of Designations in effect as of the date of this Agreement for
the Series C Preferred Stock of the Borrower, any change in the Borrower's
policy with respect to dividends or distributions to shareholders of the
Borrower requires the approval of the holder of the two outstanding shares of
Series C Preferred Stock. As of the date of this Agreement, the Borrower does
not anticipate any change in its dividend policy or in the terms of the
Certificate of Designations of the Series C Preferred Stock.

Subsidiaries to pay and discharge, before the same shall become delinquent, (i)
all taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies imposed upon it or
upon its property or assets and (ii) all lawful claims that, if unpaid, might by
law become a Lien upon its property; provided, however, that neither the
Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to pay or discharge any
such tax, assessment, charge or claim that is being contested in good faith and
by proper proceedings and as to which appropriate reserves are being maintained
(if required by GAAP), unless and until any Lien resulting therefrom attaches to
its property or assets and becomes enforceable against its other creditors.

          (c) Compliance with Environmental Laws. Except when the failure to do
so would not be reasonably likely to result in a Material Adverse Effect,
comply, and cause each of its Subsidiaries and all lessees and other Persons
occupying its properties to comply, in all material respects, with all
Environmental Laws and Environmental Permits applicable to its operations and
properties; obtain and renew all Environmental Permits necessary for its
operations and properties; and conduct, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to
conduct, any reasonable investigation, study, sampling and testing, and
undertake any reasonable cleanup, removal, remedial or other action necessary to
remove and clean up all Hazardous Materials from any of its properties, in
accordance with the requirements of all Environmental Laws; provided, however,
that neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to
undertake any such cleanup, removal, remedial or other action to the extent that
its obligation to do so is being contested in good faith and by proper
proceedings and appropriate reserves are being maintained with respect to such
circumstances.

          (d) Maintenance of Insurance. Maintain, and cause each of its
Subsidiaries to maintain, insurance with responsible insurance companies or
associations in such amounts and covering such risks as is usually carried by
companies engaged in similar businesses and owning similar properties in the
same general areas in which the Borrower or such Subsidiary operates.

          (e) Preservation of Corporate Existence, Etc. Except as permitted
under Section 5.02(b), preserve and maintain, and cause each of its Subsidiaries
to

<PAGE>

preserve and maintain, its corporate existence, rights (charter and statutory)
and franchises (including, without limitation, any franchise agreement of the
Borrower or any Subsidiary with TCCC or any Affiliate thereof, which agreements
shall be preserved and maintained in a manner consistent in all material
respects with past practice); provided, however, that neither the Borrower nor
any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to preserve any right or franchise,
nor shall the Borrower be required to maintain the corporate existence of any
Subsidiary if the preservation or maintenance thereof is no longer desirable in
the conduct of the business of the Borrower or such Subsidiary, as the case may
be, and the failure to preserve any such right or franchise or maintain the
corporate existence of such Subsidiary would not be reasonably likely to result
in a Material Adverse Effect on the Borrower and its Subsidiaries taken as a
whole.

          (f) Visitation Rights. At any time during regular business hours upon
prior written notice to and approval of the Borrower (which approval shall not
be unreasonably withheld or delayed) permit any Agent, or any Lender, or any
agents or representatives thereof, to examine and make notes with respect to
records and books of account of, and visit the properties of, the Borrower and
any of its Subsidiaries, and to discuss the affairs, finances and accounts of
the Borrower and any of its Subsidiaries with any of their executive officers or
directors and with their independent certified public accountants.

          (g) Keeping of Books. Keep, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to
keep, proper books of record and account, in which full and correct entries
shall be made of all financial transactions and the assets and business of the
Borrower and each such Subsidiary in accordance with GAAP.

          (h) Maintenance of Properties, Etc. Except where the failure to do so
would not be reasonably likely to result in a Material Adverse Effect, maintain
and preserve, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to maintain and preserve, all
of its properties and assets that are material to the conduct of its business in
good working order and condition, ordinary wear and tear excepted.

          (i) Transactions with Affiliates.

          (i) Conduct, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to conduct, all
     transactions otherwise permitted under the Loan Documents with any of its
     Subsidiaries (x) in the ordinary course of business in accordance with past
     practices or (y) on terms that are fair and reasonable and no less
     favorable to the Borrower or such Subsidiary than it would obtain in a
     comparable arm's-length transaction with a Person not an Affiliate.

          (ii) Conduct, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to conduct, all
     transactions otherwise permitted under the Loan Documents with any of their
     Affiliates (other than their Subsidiaries) on terms that are fair and
     reasonable and no less favorable to the Borrower or such Subsidiary than it
     would obtain in a comparable arm's length transaction with a Person not an
     Affiliate.

<PAGE>

          (iii) Prior to the Borrower becoming indebted to any Affiliate of the
     Borrower, cause such Affiliate to execute a subordination agreement in form
     and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, subordinating such
     Debt to be owed to such Affiliate to all Obligations of the Borrower under
     the Loan Documents, and thereafter deliver to the Administrative Agent a
     copy thereof certified by a duly authorized officer or agent to be a true
     and correct copy of the original.

          (j) Compliance with Terms of Leaseholds. Except where the failure to
do so would not be reasonably likely to result in a Material Adverse Effect,
make all payments and otherwise perform in all material respects all obligations
in respect of all material leases of real property and cause all of its
Subsidiaries to do so, and, to the extent material to the business of the
Borrower, keep such leases in full force and effect and not allow such leases to
lapse or be terminated or rights to renew such leases to be forfeited or
canceled.

          (k) Sales of Assets. Cause any assets that are, in the aggregate
during the term of this Agreement, material to the Consolidated financial
position of the Borrower, to be sold or otherwise transferred by the Borrower or
any of its Subsidiaries to be so sold or transferred at a value that shall
reasonably approximate their fair market value (it being understood that
"material," for purposes of this clause (k) only, shall mean an amount equal to,
for all assets during the term of this Agreement, 5.5% of Consolidated Tangible
Net Assets (calculated as of the end-date of the last quarter for which
Consolidated financial statements have been distributed)).

          SECTION 5.02 Negative Covenants. So long as any Obligation under the
Loan Documents shall remain unpaid, the Borrower shall not, without the written
consent of the Required Lenders:

          (a) Liens, Etc. Create, incur, assume or suffer to exist, or permit
any of its Subsidiaries to create, incur, assume or suffer to exist, any Lien on
or with respect to any of its properties and assets of any character (including,

acquired or assign, or permit any of its Subsidiaries to assign, any accounts or
other rights to receive revenues, excluding, however, from the operation of the
foregoing restrictions:

          (i) Permitted Liens; and

          (ii) Liens securing Debt if, after giving pro forma effect to the
     incurrence of such Debt (and the receipt and application of the proceeds
     thereof) or the securing of outstanding Debt, the sum of (without
     duplication) all Debt of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries secured by Liens
     (other than Permitted Liens), at the time of determination would not exceed
     10% of Consolidated Tangible Net Assets.

          (b) Mergers, Etc. Merge with or into or consolidate with or into any
Person, or permit any of its Subsidiaries to do so, unless: (i) either (a) such

consolidation is between any of the Borrower's Subsidiaries and any of the
Borrower's other Subsidiaries, (b) the Borrower shall be the continuing Person
in the case of a merger or (c) the resulting or surviving Person if other than
the Borrower (the "Successor Company") shall expressly assume, by a written
agreement, executed and delivered to the Administrative Agent, in form
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, all the obligations of the Borrower
under the Loan Documents; (ii) immediately after giving effect to such
transaction (and treating any Debt which becomes an obligation of the Successor
Company or any Subsidiary of the Borrower or the Successor Company as a result
of such transaction as having been incurred by the Successor Company or such
Subsidiary at the time of such transaction), no Default would occur or be
continuing and the Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent an
officer's certificate to that effect; and (iii) except in the case of any merger
or consolidation under subclause (i)(a) above: (A) the Borrower shall have
delivered to the Administrative Agent an officer's certificate and an opinion of
counsel, each stating that such consolidation or merger and such written
agreement comply with the Loan Documents and, if such consolidation or merger
results in a Successor Company, that such written agreement constitutes the
legal, valid and binding obligation of the Successor Company, enforceable
against such entity in accordance with its terms, subject to customary
exceptions, and (B) at least two of Standard & Poor's, Moody's or DCR shall have
notified the Administrative Agent in writing that the proposed merger or
consolidation will not result in a withdrawal or reduction of its credit rating
of the Borrower below the lower of the then existing rating thereof.

          (c) Change in Nature of Business. Make, or permit any of its
Subsidiaries to make, any material change in the nature and conduct of the
business of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole as carried on at
the date of this Agreement.

          (d) Accounting Changes. Make or permit, or permit any of its
Subsidiaries to make or permit, any change in accounting policies or reporting
practices, except as required by GAAP or requested by any Governmental Authority
(and in each case the Borrower will promptly notify the Administrative Agent and
the Lenders of any such change).

          (e) Constitutional Documents. Amend, modify or change in any manner
any material term or condition of any constitutional document (including,
without limitation, the Voting Trust Agreement, any other shareholders agreement
or any similar agreement) of the Borrower or any Subsidiary or take any other
action in connection with any constitutional document that would reasonably be
likely to result in a Material Adverse Effect, except as permitted by Section
5.02(b).

          (f) Shareholders' Agreements. Enter into, or permit any of its
Subsidiaries to enter into, any shareholders' agreement (or similar agreement or
arrangement) with any holder of Voting Stock of the Borrower (other than with

except

          (i) sales of inventory, scrap and by-products in the ordinary course
     of business;

          (ii) sales of equipment and vehicles in the ordinary course of
     business, provided that the proceeds thereof are promptly reinvested in
     comparable equipment or vehicles;

          (iii) sales of assets (including, but not limited to, shares of
     capital stock of Subsidiaries) of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries,
     provided that an amount equal to the Net Cash Proceeds thereof is applied
     in accordance with and to the extent required under Section 2.03(b) hereof,
     and provided further that at the time of such sale and after giving effect
     thereto no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; and

          (iv) sales of assets to Affiliates permitted under Section 5.01(i).

          (i) Debt. Create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Debt, or permit

                         course of business consistent in all material respects
                         with past practices;

                    (D)  any Debt owed by the Borrower to any Subsidiary
                         incurred in the ordinary course of business consistent
                         in all material respects with past practices; provided
                         that all such Debt owed by the Borrower to any
                         Affiliate of the Borrower shall be subordinated to all
                         Obligations of the Borrower under the Loan Documents
                         pursuant to a

                         hereof; and (II) at the time such Debt is incurred and
                         after giving effect thereto (and to the repayment
                         required hereunder) no Event of Default shall have
                         occurred and be continuing;

                    (F)  any replacement, extension or renewal of any Debt
                         permitted by subclause (B), (D) or (E) above;

           (ii)     in the case of any Subsidiary of the Borrower,

                    (A)  the Existing Debt identified in Item 4.01(p) of the
                         Disclosure Schedule; and

                         Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

          For purposes of determining compliance with the foregoing covenant,
     (i) in the event that an item of Debt meets the criteria of more than one
     of the types of Debt described above, the Borrower, in its reasonable
     discretion, will classify such item of Debt and only be required to include
     the amount and type of such Debt in one of the above clauses and (ii) an
     item of Debt may be split between more than one of the applicable types of
     Debt described above.

(a) could result in the incurrence by the Borrower of any material liability,
fine or penalty, or any material increase in the contingent liability of the

$20,000,000 (or the equivalent in another currency) which is not covered by
insurance shall be rendered against the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries and
either (i) enforcement proceedings shall have been commenced by any creditor
upon such judgment or order or (ii) there shall be any period of 30 consecutive

Borrower;

then, and in any such event, the Administrative Agent shall at the request, or
may with the consent, of the Required Lenders, by notice to the Borrower, (i)
declare the Notes, all

<PAGE>

interest thereon and all other amounts payable under this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents to be forthwith due and payable, whereupon the Notes, all
such interest and all such amounts shall become and be forthwith due and
payable, without presentment, demand, protest or further notice of any kind, all
of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower and (ii) take all remedies
as may be available under the Loan Documents or otherwise; provided, however,
that in the event of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with
respect to the Borrower under the Federal Bankruptcy Code or any similar order
or adjudication under applicable law that would impose a moratorium on or stay
of creditor efforts to collect debts to become effective, the Notes, all such
interest and all such amounts shall automatically become and be due and payable,
without presentment, demand, protest or any notice of any kind, all of which are
hereby expressly waived by the Borrower.

                                  ARTICLE VII

                            THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

          SECTION 7.01 Authorization and Action. Each Lender hereby appoints and
authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf
and to exercise such powers and discretion under this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof,
together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto.
Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this
Agreement or in any other Loan Document, the Administrative Agent shall not have
any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, nor
shall the Administrative Agent have or be deemed to have 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 Loan Document or otherwise exist against the
Administrative Agent. As to any matters not expressly provided for by the Loan
Documents (including, without limitation, enforcement or collection of the
Notes), the Administrative Agent shall not be required to exercise any
discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from
acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting)
upon the instructions of the Required Lenders, and such instructions shall be
binding upon all Lenders and all holders of Notes; provided, however, that the
Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that exposes the
Administrative Agent to personal liability or that is contrary to this Agreement
or applicable law. The Administrative Agent agrees to give to each Lender prompt
notice of each notice given to it by the Borrower pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement.

          SECTION 7.02 Duties and Reliance, Etc.

          (a) Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors,
officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to
be taken by it or them under or in connection with the Loan Documents, except
for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct, or shall have any
fiduciary duty to any Lender. Without limitation of the generality of the
foregoing, the Administrative Agent: (i) may treat the payee of any Note as the
holder thereof until the Administrative Agent receives

<PAGE>

and accepts an Assignment and Acceptance entered into by the Lender that is the
payee of such Note, as assignor, and an Eligible Assignee, as assignee, as
provided in Section 8.07; (ii) may consult with legal, counsel (including
counsel for the Borrower), independent public accountants and other experts
selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be
taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel,
accountants or experts; and (iii) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to
inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or
conditions of any Loan Document on the part of the Borrower or to inspect the
property (including the books and records) of the Borrower; and (iv) shall not
incur any liability under or in respect of any Loan Document by acting upon any
notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by
telegram, telecopy, cable or telex) believed by it to be genuine and signed or
sent by the proper party or parties.

          (b) The Administrative Agent (i) does not make any warranty or
representation to any Lender and shall not be responsible to any Lender for the
accuracy or completeness of the Confidential Information, warranties or
representations made in or in connection with the Loan Documents and (ii) shall
not be responsible to any Lender for the due execution, legality, validity,
enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of any Loan Document or any
other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto.

          (c) The Administrative Agent has no duties hereunder or under the
other Loan Documents that are not specifically set forth herein or therein.

          SECTION 7.03 Administrative Agent and Affiliates. With respect to the
Advances made by it and the Note issued to it, the Administrative Agent shall
have the same rights and powers under the Loan Documents as any other Lender and
may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent; and the
term "Lender" or "Lenders" shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include
the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity as Lender. The
Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to,
act as trustee under indentures of, accept investment banking engagements from
and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower, any of its
Subsidiaries and any Person who may do business with or own securities of the
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, all as if they were not the Administrative
Agent, and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders. Each Lender
acknowledges that, pursuant to such activities, the Administrative Agent and its
Affiliates may receive information regarding the Borrower and its Affiliates
(including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in
favor of the Borrower or such Affiliate) and acknowledge that the Administrative
Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them.

          SECTION 7.04 Lender Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that it
has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any
other Lender and based on the financial statements referred to in Section 4.01
and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its
own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also
acknowledges 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,

<PAGE>

continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under
this Agreement.

          SECTION 7.05 Indemnification. Each Lender agrees to indemnify each
Agent (to the extent not promptly reimbursed by the Borrower), ratably according
to the principal amount of the Note then held by such Lender, from and against
any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including,
without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) that are actually
incurred by or asserted or awarded against such Agent, in each case arising out
of or in connection with or in any way relating to the Loan Documents or any
action taken or omitted by such Agent under the Loan Documents; provided,
however, that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs,
expenses or disbursements resulting from such Agent's gross negligence or
willful misconduct. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to
reimburse each Agent promptly upon demand for such Lender's ratable share of any
costs and expenses payable by the Borrower under Section 8.04, to the extent
that such Agent is not promptly reimbursed for such costs and expenses by the
Borrower.

          SECTION 7.06 Successors to Administrative Agent. The Administrative
Agent may at any time assign the rights and obligations hereunder to any of its
Affiliates, provided that the Administrative Agent, or a Person owning a
majority of the capital stock of the Administrative Agent, owns a majority of
the capital stock of such Affiliate, or such Affiliate owns a majority of the
capital stock of the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign
at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower and
may be removed at any time with or without cause by the Required Lenders. Upon
any such resignation or removal, the Required Lenders after consultation with
the Borrower shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent to
the Administrative Agent. If no such successor Administrative Agent shall have
been so appointed by the Required Lenders, and shall have accepted such
appointment, within 30 days after such retiring Administrative Agent's giving of
notice of resignation or the Required Lenders' removal of the retiring
Administrative Agent, then such retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of
the Lenders after consultation with the Borrower, appoint a successor
Administrative Agent to such Administrative Agent, which shall be an Eligible
Assignee or commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States or of
any State thereof and having a combined capital and surplus of at least U.S.
$250,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the Administrative Agent
hereunder by such a successor Administrative Agent, such successor
Administrative Agent shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights,
powers, discretion, privileges and duties of such retiring Administrative Agent,
and such retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and
obligations under the Loan Documents. After the Administrative Agent's
resignation or removal hereunder as such Administrative Agent, the provisions of
this Article VII shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted
to be taken by it while it was the Administrative Agent under this Agreement.

          SECTION 7.07 Syndication Agent. The Syndication Agent shall not have
any duties, responsibilities, or liabilities under any Loan Document.

                                  ARTICLE VIII

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

          SECTION 8.01 Amendments, Etc. No amendment or waiver of any provision
of this Agreement, the Notes or any other Loan Documents, nor consent to any
departure by the Borrower therefor, shall in any event be effective unless the
same shall be in writing and signed by the Required Lenders, and then such
waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the
specific purpose for which given; provided, however, that no amendment, waiver
or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by all the Lenders, do any of the
following: (i) change the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Notes, or the
number of Lenders, that shall be required for the Lenders or any of them to take
any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document; (ii) amend this Section
8.01; (iii) reduce the principal of, or interest on (including, without
limitation, the rate of interest), the Notes or any fees or other amounts
payable hereunder; or (iv) postpone the Maturity Date or any date fixed for any
payment of principal or interest on the Notes or any fees or other amounts
payable hereunder; and provided, however, that no amendment, waiver or consent
shall, unless in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent in addition to
the Lenders required above to take such action, affect the rights or duties of
the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any Note.

          SECTION 8.02 Notices, Etc. All notices and other communications
provided for hereunder shall be in writing (including telegraphic, facsimile or
telex communication) and faxed, telexed or delivered, if to the Borrower, at its
address set forth below its signature on the signature pages hereto; if to any
Lender, at its Lending Office specified opposite its name on Annex I or Annex II
hereto or in the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which it became a Lender;
and if to the Administrative Agent, at its address set forth below its signature
on the signature pages hereto; or, as to the Borrower or the Administrative
Agent, at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written
notice to the other parties and, as to each other party, at such other address
as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent. All such notices and communications shall, when faxed or
telexed, be effective when transmitted by facsimile or confirmed by telex
answerback, respectively, except that notices and communications, to the
Administrative Agent pursuant to Article II, III or VII shall not be effective
until received by the Administrative Agent. All such notices and other
communications, if not in English, shall be accompanied by an English
translation.

          SECTION 8.03 No Waiver, Remedies. No failure on the part of any Lender
or the, Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right
hereunder or under any Note or any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver
thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any
other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The
remedies herein and therein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any
remedies provided by law.

<PAGE>

          SECTION 8.04 Costs, Expenses and Indemnification.

          (a) The Borrower agrees to pay on demand (whether or not the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated) (i) all reasonable

delivery, administration, syndication, modification and amendment of the Loan
Documents, including, without limitation, (A) all reasonable out-of-pocket due
diligence, transportation, computer, printing, bank meeting, duplication,
appraisal, audit, search, filing and recording fees and expenses and, with the
prior approval of the Borrower, insurance and consultant fees, and (B) the

without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) that are actually
incurred by or asserted or awarded against any Indemnified Party, in each case

directors, shareholders or creditors or an Indemnified Party, whether or not any
Indemnified Party is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not the
transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, except to the extent such
claim, damage, loss, liability or expense is found in a final, non-appealable
judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such
Indemnified Party's gross negligence or willful misconduct.

          (c) If the Borrower fails to pay when due any costs, expenses or other
amounts payable by it under any Loan Document, including, without limitation,
fees and expenses of counsel (including the allocated cost of in-house counsel)
and indemnities,

<PAGE>

such amount may be paid on behalf of the Borrower by the Administrative Agent or
any Lender, in its sole discretion, and such amount shall be reimbursed by the
Borrower.

          SECTION 8.05 Right of Set-off. Upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of any payment Event of Default, each Lender is hereby authorized at

time owing by such Lender to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower
against any and all of the Obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing

such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or such Note and
although such obligations may be unmatured. Each Lender agrees promptly to
notify the Borrower after any such set-off and application; provided, however,

the Restatement Effective Date provided each of the conditions set forth in
Section 3.01 shall have been satisfied on or prior to such date and thereafter
shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, the

assigns, except that the Borrower shall not have the right to assign its rights

Lenders.

          SECTION 8.07 Assignments and Participations.

          (a) Each Lender may assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a
portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without

purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and
the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a

connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement and
(v) no participant under any such participation shall have any right to approve

Notes or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, in each case to the extent
subject to such participation, postpone the Maturity Date or any date fixed for
any payment of interest on the Notes or any fees or other amounts payable
hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such participation.

          (f) Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Agreement,
any Lender may at any time create a security interest in all or any portion of
its rights under this Agreement (including, without limitation, the Advance or
Advances owing to it and the Note held by it) in favor of any Federal Reserve
Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the Federal
Reserve System.

          SECTION 8.11 Judgment.

          (a) If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is
necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or under the Notes or any other Loan
Documents in U.S. Dollars into another currency (the "Other Currency"), the
parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so,
that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal
banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase U.S. Dollars in New
York City on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given.

          (b) The obligation of the Borrower in respect of any sum due in U.S.
Dollars from it to any Lender or the Administrative Agent hereunder or under the
Note held by such Lender shall, notwithstanding any judgment in any Other
Currency, be discharged only to the extent that, on the Business Day following
receipt by such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) of any
sum adjudged to be so due in such Other Currency such Lender or the
Administrative Agent (as the case may be) may, in accordance with normal banking
procedures, purchase U.S. Dollars with such Other Currency; if the amount of the
U.S. Dollars so purchased is less than the sum originally due to such Lender or
the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) in U.S. Dollars, the Borrower
agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding such judgment, to indemnify
such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) against such loss,
and if the amount of the U.S. Dollars so purchased exceeds the sum originally
due to any Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) in U.S.
Dollars, such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) agrees to
remit to the Borrower such excess.

          SECTION 8.12 Consent to Jurisdiction.

<PAGE>

          (a) Each of the Persons parties hereto hereby irrevocably submits to
the jurisdiction of any New York State or Federal court sitting in the borough

be made by delivering a copy of such process to the Borrower in care of the
Process Agent at the Process Agent's above address, and the Borrower hereby
irrevocably authorizes and directs the Process Agent to accept such service on
its behalf. As an alternative method of service, the Borrower also irrevocably
consents to the service of any and all process in any such action or proceeding
by the mailing of copies of such process to the Borrower at its address
specified in Section 8.02. The Borrower agrees that a final judgment in any such
action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other
jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.

          (b) Nothing in this Section shall affect the right of any Lender or
any Agent to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law or affect
the right of any Lender or any Agent to bring any action or proceeding against
the Borrower or its property in the courts of other jurisdictions.

          (c) To the extent that the Borrower has or hereafter may acquire any
immunity from jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process (whether
through service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of
execution, execution or otherwise) with respect to itself or its property, the
Borrower hereby irrevocably waives such immunity in respect of its obligations
under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is or becomes a
party.
