         NOW, THEREFORE, Holdings, Intermediate Holdings, the U.S. Borrower, the
Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers party hereto, the Required Restatement Lenders and
the Administrative Agent hereby agree as follows:

              SECTION 1.01. Defined Terms. Capitalized terms used but not
defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Restated
Credit Agreement referred to below or, if not defined therein, in the Original
Credit Agreement. As used in this Agreement,

"Required Restatement Lenders" means, at any time, (i) the Required Lenders (as
defined in the Original Credit Agreement) and (ii) each of the Tranche C
Lenders.

              SECTION 1.02. Restatement Effective Date. (a) The transactions
provided for in Sections 3 and 4 hereof shall be consummated at a closing to be
held on the Restatement Effective Date at the offices of Cravath, Swaine & Moore
LLP, or at such other time and place as the parties hereto shall agree upon.

              (b) The "Restatement Effective Date" shall be specified by the
         U.S. Borrower, and shall be a date not later than July 25, 2003, as of
         which all the conditions set forth or referred to in Section 5 hereof
         shall have been satisfied. This Agreement shall terminate at 5:00 p.m.,
         New York City time, on July 25, 2003, if the Restatement Effective Date
         shall not have occurred at or prior to such time.

              SECTION 1.03. Tranche C Term Loans; Prepayment of Tranche B Term
Loans and the Tranche A Term Loans. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions set
forth herein, each Tranche C Lender agrees (i) to make a Tranche C-1 Term Loan
to the U.S. Borrower on the Restatement Effective Date in a principal amount
equal to the Tranche C-1 Term Loan Commitment set forth for such Tranche C
Lender on Schedule 1 hereto and (ii) to make a Tranche C-2 Term Loan to the U.S.
Borrower on the Restatement Effective Date in a principal amount equal to the
Tranche C-2 Term Loan Commitment set forth for such Tranche C Lender on Schedule
1 hereto. The Tranche C-1 Term Loans shall be made on the Restatement Effective
Date as ABR Borrowings. The Tranche C-2 Term Loans shall be made on the
Restatement Effective Date as Eurocurrency Borrowings. The Required Lenders
hereby waive (x) the requirements of Section 6.01 of the Original Credit
Agreement to the extent, but only to the extent, necessary to permit the U.S.
Borrower to incur the Tranche C Term Loans and make Borrowings thereunder on the
Restatement Effective Date and (y) the requirements of Section 2.10(f) of the
Original Credit Agreement to the extent, but only to the extent, such Section
requires more than one Business Day's notice of repayment to be given in respect
of the Loans to be repaid on the Restatement Effective Date.

              (b) The U.S. Borrower hereby irrevocably directs the
         Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.11(a) of the Original Credit
         Agreement to apply (i) all the proceeds of the Tranche C-1 Term Loans
         immediately upon the receipt thereof to prepay all the outstanding
         principal of the Tranche B-1 Term Loans and $120,000,000 of the
         outstanding principal amount of the Tranche A Term Loans and (ii) all
         the proceeds of the Tranche C-2 Term Loans immediately upon the receipt
         thereof to prepay all the outstanding principal of the Tranche B-2 Term
         Loans and the dollar equivalent of (eurodollar)30,185,185 of the
         outstanding principal amount of the Tranche A Term Loans. The U.S.
         Borrower also agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent on the
         Restatement Effective Date by intrabank transfer of immediately
         available funds (i) an amount in dollars that, when added to the dollar
         equivalent of (eurodollar)30,185,185 and $120,000,000, equals
         $200,000,000, which amount shall be applied to prepay Tranche A Term
         Loans on the Restatement Effective Date and (ii) all accrued interest,
         fees and any other amounts owing in respect of the Tranche B Term Loans
         as of such date.

              (a) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice
         from a Tranche C Lender prior to the Restatement Effective Date that
         such Tranche C Lender will not make available to the Administrative
         Agent such Tranche C Lender's share of such Tranche C Borrowing, the
         Administrative Agent may assume that such Tranche C Lender has made
         such share available on such date in accordance with this Section and
         may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the U.S.
         Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Tranche C Lender
         has not in fact made its share of the Tranche C Borrowing available to
         the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Tranche C Lender and the
         U.S. Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent
         forthwith on demand (without duplication) such corresponding amount
         with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such
         amount is made available to the U.S. Borrower to but excluding the date
         of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such
         Tranche C Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a
         rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking
         industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of the
         U.S. Borrower, the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans. If such
         Tranche C Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then
         such amount shall constitute such Tranche C Lender's Tranche C Loan
         included in such Tranche C Borrowing. If the U.S. Borrower pays such
         amount to the Administrative Agent, then the U.S. Borrower shall have
         the right, at the defaulting Tranche C Lender's expense, upon notice to
         the defaulting Tranche C Lender and to the Administrative Agent, to
         require such defaulting Tranche C Lender to transfer and assign without
         recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained
         in Section 9.04 of the Restated Credit Agreement) all its interests,
         rights and obligations under the Restated Credit Agreement to another
         financial institution which shall assume such interests, rights and
         obligations; provided that (i) no such assignment shall conflict with
         any law, rule or regulation or order of any Governmental Authority and
         (ii) the assignee shall pay to the defaulting Tranche C Lender or the
         Administrative Agent (as applicable), in immediately available funds on
         the date of such assignment, the outstanding principal of and interest
         accrued to the date of payment on the Tranche C Term Loans made by such
         defaulting Tranche C Lender (or advanced by the Administrative Agent on
         its behalf, as applicable) under the Restated Credit Agreement, if any,
         and all other amounts accrued for such defaulting Tranche C Lender's
         (or, if applicable, the Administrative Agent's) account or owed to it
         under the Restated Credit Agreement in respect of such Tranche C Term
         Loans.

              SECTION 1.04. Amendment and Restatement of the Original Credit
Agreement; Loans and Letters of Credit. (a) Effective immediately after the
prepayment of the Tranche A Term Loans and the Tranche B Term Loans under
Section 3 above, the Original Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated to
read in its entirety as set forth in Exhibit A hereto (the "Restated Credit
Agreement"), and the Administrative Agent is hereby directed by the Required
Restatement Lenders to enter into such Loan Documents and to take such other
actions as may be required to give effect to the transactions contemplated
hereby. From and after the effectiveness of such amendment and restatement, the
terms "Agreement", "this Agreement", "herein", "hereinafter", "hereto", "hereof"
and words of similar import, as used in the Restated Credit Agreement, shall,
unless the context otherwise requires, refer to the Original Credit Agreement as
amended and restated in the form of the Restated Credit Agreement, and

the term "Credit Agreement", as used in the other Loan Documents, shall mean the
Restated Credit Agreement.

              (b) The aggregate principal amount of $210,000,000 of the Tranche
         A Term Loans, all Revolving Loans, all Swingline Loans, all Letters of
         Credit and all Ancillary Facilities outstanding under the Original
         Credit Agreement on the Restatement Effective Date shall continue to be
         outstanding under the Restated Credit Agreement and the terms of the
         Restated Credit Agreement will govern the rights of the Lenders and the
         Issuing Bank with respect thereto.

limitation". All references herein to Articles, Sections, Exhibits and Schedules
shall be deemed references to Articles and Sections of, and Exhibits and
Schedules to, this Agreement unless the context shall otherwise require. Except
as otherwise expressly provided herein, any reference in this Agreement to any
Loan Document shall mean such document as amended, restated, supplemented or
otherwise modified from time to time. Except as otherwise expressly provided
herein, all terms of an accounting or financial nature shall be construed in
accordance with GAAP, as in effect from time to time; provided that, if the U.S.
Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent that the U.S. Borrower requests an
amendment to any provision hereof to eliminate the effect of any change

         (b) Not later than 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on each Reset Date,

and (ii) notify the Lenders, each Issuing Bank and the Borrowers of the results
of such determination.

         SECTION 2.04. Redenomination of Certain Foreign Currencies. (a) Each

currency after the Closing Date shall be redenominated into Euro at the time of
such adoption (in accordance with the EMU Legislation). If, in relation to the
currency of any such member state, the basis of accrual of interest expressed in
this Agreement in respect of that currency shall be inconsistent with any
convention or practice in the London Interbank Market for the basis of accrual
of interest in respect of the Euro, such expressed basis shall be replaced by
such convention or practice with effect from the date on which such member state
adopts the Euro as its lawful currency; provided that if any Borrowing in the
currency of such member state is outstanding immediately prior to such date,
such replacement shall take effect, with respect to such Borrowing, at the end
of the then current Interest Period.

         (b) Without prejudice and in addition to any method of conversion or
rounding prescribed by any EMU Legislation and (i) without limiting the
liability of any Borrower for any amount due under this Agreement and (ii)
without increasing any Commitment of any Lender, all references in this
Agreement to minimum amounts (or integral multiples thereof) denominated in the
national currency unit of any member state of the European Union that adopts the
Euro as its lawful currency after the Closing Date shall, immediately upon such
adoption, be replaced by references to such minimum amounts (or integral
multiples thereof) as shall be specified herein with respect to Borrowings
denominated in Euros.

         (c) Each provision of this Agreement shall be subject to such
reasonable changes of construction as the Administrative Agent may from time to
time specify to be appropriate to reflect the adoption of the Euro by any member
state of the European Union and any relevant market conventions or practices
relating to the Euro.

         SECTION 2.05. Effectuation of Transfers. Each of the representations
and warranties of Holdings, Intermediate Holdings and the Borrowers contained in
this Agreement (and all corresponding definitions) are made after giving effect
to the Transactions, unless the context otherwise requires.

Commitment or (B) the Global Revolving Facility Credit Exposure exceeding (1)
the total Global Revolving Facility Commitments minus (2) the total Ancillary

                                                                              53

Commitments, as applicable); provided, however, that Global Revolving Facility
Loans under the Global Revolving Facility shall be made by the Global Revolving
Facility Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Available Unused
Commitments on the date such Loans are made hereunder. The failure of any Lender
to make any Loan required to be made by it shall not relieve any other Lender of
its obligations hereunder; provided that the Commitments of the Lenders are
several and no Lender shall be responsible for any other Lender's failure to
make Loans as required.

         (b) Subject to Section 2.14, (i) each Borrowing denominated in Dollars

shall not affect the obligation of the applicable Borrower to repay such Loan in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement and such Lender shall not be
entitled to any amounts payable under Section 2.15, 2.17 or 2.21 solely in
respect of increased costs resulting from such exercise.

         (c) At the commencement of each Interest Period for any Eurocurrency
Revolving Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an
integral multiple of the Borrowing Multiple and not less than the Borrowing
Minimum; provided that a Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing that is an Ancillary
Replacement Borrowing shall be permitted to be in an amount necessary to finance
Ancillary Credit Extensions under an Ancillary Facility being terminated
pursuant to Section 2.22(e). At the time that each ABR Revolving Borrowing is
made, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral
multiple of the Borrowing Multiple and not less than the Borrowing Minimum;
provided that an ABR Revolving Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that is
equal to the entire

                                                                              54

Revolving Credit Maturity Date, Tranche A Maturity Date or Tranche C Maturity
Date, as applicable.

         SECTION 3.03. Requests for Borrowings. Except in the case of an
Ancillary Replacement Borrowing (which shall be governed by Section 2.22(e)), to

Currency Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto, which shall be
a period contemplated by clause (b) of the definition of the term "Interest
Period". The Applicable Agent shall promptly advise each Swingline Dollar Lender
(in the case of a notice relating to a Swingline Dollar Borrowing) or each
Swingline Foreign Currency Lender (in the case of a notice relating to a
Swingline Foreign Currency Borrowing) of any such notice received from a
Borrower and the amount of such Swingline Lender's Swingline Loan to be made as
part of the requested Swingline Dollar Borrowing or Swingline Foreign Currency
Borrowing, as applicable. Each Swingline Dollar Lender shall make each Swingline

proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 3:00
p.m., Local Time, to the account of the Applicable Agent most recently

Applicable Agent will make such Swingline Dollar Loans available to the U.S.
Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to the
general deposit account of the U.S. Borrower with the Applicable Agent (or, in
the case of a Swingline Dollar Borrowing made to finance the reimbursement of an
L/C Disbursement as provided in Section 2.05(e), by remittance to the applicable
Issuing Bank). Each Swingline Foreign Currency Lender shall make each Swingline
Foreign Currency Loan to be made by it hereunder in accordance with Section

crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to the general deposit account
with the Applicable Agent of the applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower most
recently designated to the Applicable Agent or (ii) by wire transfer of the
amounts received in immediately available funds to the general deposit account
of the applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower most recently designated to the

         (c) A Swingline Lender may by written notice given to the Applicable
Agent (and to the other Swingline Dollar Lenders or Swingline Foreign Currency
Lenders, as applicable) not later than 10:00 a.m., Local Time, on any Business
Day require (i) in the case of a Swingline Dollar Lender, the U.S. Revolving
Facility Lenders to acquire participations on such Business Day in all or a
portion of the outstanding Swingline Dollar Loans made by it or (ii) in the case
of a Swingline Foreign Currency Lender, the Global Revolving Facility Lenders to
acquire participations on such Business Day in all or a portion of the
outstanding Swingline Foreign Currency Loans made by it. Such notice shall
specify the aggregate amount of such Swingline Loans in which the U.S. Revolving
Facility Lenders or Global Revolving Facility Lenders, as applicable, will
participate. Promptly upon receipt of such notice, the Applicable Agent will
give notice thereof to each such Lender, specifying in such notice such Lender's
U.S. Revolving Facility Percentage or such Global Revolving Facility Lender's
ratable share (based on Available Unused Commitments), as applicable, of such
Swingline Loan or Loans. Each U.S. Revolving Facility Lender hereby absolutely
and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided above, to pay to
the Applicable Agent, for the account of the applicable Swingline Dollar Lender,
such U.S. Revolving Facility Lender's U.S. Revolving Facility Percentage of such
Swingline Dollar Loan or Loans. Each Global Revolving Facility Lender hereby
absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided above,
to pay to the Applicable Agent, for the account of the applicable Swingline
Foreign Currency Lender, such Global Revolving Facility Lender's ratable share
(based on Available Unused Commitments) of such

                                                                              57

Swingline Foreign Currency Loan or Loans. Each Global Revolving Facility Lender
and each U.S. Revolving Facility Lender acknowledges and agrees that its
respective obligation to acquire participations in Swingline Foreign Currency
Loans and Swingline Dollar Loans, as applicable, pursuant to this paragraph is
absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance
whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction
or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made
without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each
Revolving Credit Lender shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph by
wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in
Section 2.06 with respect to Loans made by such Revolving Credit Lender (and
Section 2.06 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the
Lenders), and the Applicable Agent shall promptly pay to the applicable
Swingline Lender the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Credit
Lenders. The Applicable Agent shall notify the applicable Borrower of any
participations in any Swingline Loan acquired pursuant to this paragraph (c),
and thereafter payments in respect of such Swingline Loan shall be made to the
Applicable Agent and not to the applicable Swingline Lender. Any amounts
received by a Swingline Lender from the applicable Borrower (or other party on
behalf of such Borrower) in respect of a Swingline Loan after receipt by such
Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be
promptly remitted to the Applicable Agent; any such amounts received by the
Applicable Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Applicable Agent to the
Revolving Credit Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this
paragraph and to such Swingline Lender, as their interests may appear; provided
that any such payment so remitted shall be repaid to such Swingline Lender or to
the Applicable Agent, as applicable, if and to the extent such payment is
required to be refunded to the applicable Borrower for any reason. The purchase
of participations in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not
relieve the applicable Borrower of any default in the payment thereof.

         SECTION 3.05. Letters of Credit. (a) General. Each Existing Letter of
Credit is deemed to be a letter of credit issued hereunder for all purposes of
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. In addition, subject to the terms
and conditions set forth herein, each Borrower may request the issuance of
Dollar Letters of Credit and Foreign Currency Letters of Credit for its own
account, in each case in a form reasonably acceptable to the applicable Issuing
Bank, at any time and from time to time during the Availability Period and prior
to the date that is five Business Days prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity
Date. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this
Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit
application or other agreement submitted by the Applicant Party to, or entered
into by the Applicant Party with, an Issuing Bank relating to any Letter of
Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control.

         (b) Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain
Conditions. To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment,
renewal (other than an automatic renewal in accordance with paragraph (c) of
this Section) or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit), the Applicant
Party shall hand deliver or telecopy (or transmit by electronic communication,
if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the applicable Issuing Bank)
to the applicable Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent (reasonably in
advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension) a
notice requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter
of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, and specifying the date of
issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (which shall be

                                                                              58

a Business Day), the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which
shall comply with paragraph (c) of this Section), the amount of such Letter of
Credit, (subject to paragraph (n) of this Section) the currency in which such
Letter of Credit is to be denominated, the name and address of the beneficiary
thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to issue, amend, renew
or extend such Letter of Credit. If requested by the applicable Issuing Bank,
the Applicant Party also shall submit a letter of credit application on such
Issuing Bank's standard form in connection with any request for a Letter of
Credit. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if
(and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit the
Applicant Party shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving
effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (i) the Revolving L/C
Exposure shall not exceed $175,000,000 and (ii) the U.S. Revolving Facility
Credit Exposure shall not exceed the total U.S. Revolving Facility Commitments.

         (c) Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to
the close of business on the earlier of (i) the date one year after the date of
the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or
extension thereof, one year after such renewal or extension) and (ii) the date
that is five Business Days prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date; provided
that any Letter of Credit with a one-year tenor may provide for the automatic
renewal thereof for additional one-year periods (which, in no event, shall
extend beyond the date referred to in clause (ii) of this paragraph (c)).

         (d) Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an
amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any
further action on the part of the applicable Issuing Bank or the U.S. Revolving
Facility Lenders, such Issuing Bank hereby grants to each U.S. Revolving
Facility Lender, and each U.S. Revolving Facility Lender hereby acquires from
such Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such U.S.
Revolving Facility Lender's U.S. Revolving Facility Percentage of the aggregate
amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and
in furtherance of the foregoing, each U.S. Revolving Facility Lender hereby
absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent in
Dollars, for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, such U.S. Revolving
Facility Lender's U.S. Revolving Facility Percentage of (i) each L/C
Disbursement made by such Issuing Bank in Dollars and (ii) the Dollar
Equivalent, determined using the Exchange Rates calculated as of the date such
payment is required, of each L/C Disbursement made by such Issuing Bank in a
Foreign Currency and, in each case, not reimbursed by the U.S. Borrower on the
date due as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section, or of any reimbursement
payment required to be refunded to the U.S. Borrower for any reason (or, if such
reimbursement payment was refunded in a Foreign Currency, the Dollar Equivalent
thereof determined using the Exchange Rates calculated as of the date of such
refund). Each U.S. Revolving Facility Lender acknowledges and agrees that its
obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of
Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any
circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any
Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or
termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without
any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

         (e) Reimbursement. If the applicable Issuing Bank shall make any L/C
Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the U.S. Borrower shall reimburse
such L/C

                                                                              59

Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such L/C
Disbursement in Dollars or (subject to the immediately succeeding sentence) the
applicable Foreign Currency, not later than 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on
the Business Day immediately following the date the U.S. Borrower receives
notice under paragraph (g) of this Section of such L/C Disbursement, provided
that in the case of any L/C Disbursement made in Dollars with respect to a
Letter of Credit issued for the account of the U.S. Borrower, the U.S. Borrower
may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in
accordance with Section 2.03 or 2.04 that such payment be financed with an ABR
Revolving Borrowing or a Swingline Dollar Borrowing, as applicable, in an
equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the U.S. Borrower's obligation
to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR
Revolving Borrowing or Swingline Dollar Borrowing. If the U.S. Borrower fails to
reimburse any L/C Disbursement when due, then (i) if such payment relates to a
Foreign Currency Letter of Credit, automatically and with no further action
required, the obligation to reimburse the applicable L/C Disbursement shall be
permanently converted into an obligation to reimburse the Dollar Equivalent,
determined using the Exchange Rates calculated as of the date when such payment
was due, of such L/C Disbursement and (ii) the Administrative Agent shall
promptly notify the applicable Issuing Bank and each other U.S. Revolving
Facility Lender of the applicable L/C Disbursement, the Dollar Equivalent
thereof (if such L/C Disbursement relates to a Foreign Currency Letter of
Credit), the payment then due from the U.S. Borrower in respect thereof and, in
the case of a U.S. Revolving Facility Lender, such Lender's U.S. Revolving
Facility Percentage thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each
U.S. Revolving Facility Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent in Dollars
its U.S. Revolving Facility Percentage of the payment then due from the U.S.
Borrower (determined as provided in clause (i) of the immediately preceding
sentence, if such payment relates to a Foreign Currency Letter of Credit), in
the same manner as provided in Section 2.06 with respect to Loans made by such
Lender (and Section 2.06 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment
obligations of the U.S. Revolving Facility Lenders), and the Administrative
Agent shall promptly pay to the applicable Issuing Bank in Dollars the amounts
so received by it from the U.S. Revolving Facility Lenders. Promptly following
receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the U.S. Borrower
pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such
payment to the applicable Issuing Bank or, to the extent that U.S. Revolving
Facility Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse such
Issuing Bank, then to such Lenders and such Issuing Bank as their interests may
appear. Any payment made by a U.S. Revolving Facility Lender pursuant to this
paragraph to reimburse an Issuing Bank for any L/C Disbursement (other than the
funding of an ABR Revolving Loan or a Swingline Dollar Borrowing as contemplated
above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the U.S. Borrower of
its obligation to reimburse such L/C Disbursement.

         (f) Obligations Absolute. The obligation of the U.S. Borrower to
reimburse L/C Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section shall
be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances
whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any
Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any
draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged,
fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or
inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the applicable Issuing Bank under a
Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not
comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit or (iv) any other event or

                                                                              60

circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that
might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable
discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the U.S. Borrower's
obligations hereunder. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Lenders nor any
Issuing Bank, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or
responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of
any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder
(irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding
sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission
or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any
Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder),
any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from
causes beyond the control of such Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing
shall not be construed to excuse the applicable Issuing Bank from liability to
an Applicant Party to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to
consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by each
Applicant Party to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by such
Applicant Party that are caused by (i) such Issuing Bank's failure to exercise
care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a
Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof or (ii) such Issuing Bank's
refusal to issue a Letter of Credit in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross
negligence or wilful misconduct on the part of the applicable Issuing Bank, such
Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination
and each refusal to issue a Letter of Credit. In furtherance of the foregoing
and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with
respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial
compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Bank
may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents
without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or
information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such
documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such
Letter of Credit.

         (g) Disbursement Procedures. The applicable Issuing Bank shall,
promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to
represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. Such Issuing Bank shall
promptly notify the Administrative Agent, the Applicant Party and the U.S.
Borrower (if the U.S. Borrower is not the Applicant Party) by telephone
(confirmed by telecopy) of such demand for payment and whether such Issuing Bank
has made or will make a L/C Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure
to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the U.S. Borrower of
its obligation to reimburse such Issuing Bank and the U.S. Revolving Facility
Lenders with respect to any such L/C Disbursement.

         (h) Interim Interest. If an Issuing Bank shall make any L/C
Disbursement, then, unless the U.S. Borrower shall reimburse such L/C
Disbursement in full on the date such L/C Disbursement is made, the unpaid
amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date
such L/C Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the U.S. Borrower
reimburses such L/C Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR
Revolving Loans; provided that, if such L/C Disbursement is not reimbursed by
the U.S. Borrower when due pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section, then
Section 2.13(d) shall apply; provided, further, that, in the case of a L/C
Disbursement made under a Foreign Currency Letter of Credit, the amount of
interest due with respect thereto shall (i) in the case of any L/C Disbursement
that is reimbursed on or before the date such L/C Disbursement is required to be

                                                                              61

reimbursed under paragraph (e) of this Section, (A) be payable in the applicable
Foreign Currency and (B) bear interest at a rate equal to the rate reasonably
determined by the applicable Issuing Bank to be the cost to such Issuing Bank of
funding such L/C Disbursement plus the Applicable Margin applicable to
Eurocurrency Revolving Loans at such time and (ii) in the case of any L/C
Disbursement that is reimbursed after the date such L/C Disbursement is required
to be reimbursed under paragraph (e) of this Section, (A) be payable in Dollars,
(B) accrue interest on the Dollar Equivalent, determined using the Exchange
Rates calculated as of the date such L/C Disbursement was made, of such L/C
Disbursement, (C) bear interest at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR
Revolving Loans and (D) Section 2.13(d) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant
to this paragraph shall be for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank,
except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any U.S.
Revolving Facility Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section to reimburse
such Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such U.S. Revolving Facility
Lender to the extent of such payment.

         (i) Replacement of an Issuing Bank. An Issuing Bank may be replaced at
any time by written agreement among the U.S. Borrower, the Administrative Agent,
the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative
Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of an Issuing Bank. At
the time any such replacement shall become effective, the U.S. Borrower shall
pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank
pursuant to Section 2.12. From and after the effective date of any such
replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and
obligations of the replaced Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to
Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term
"Issuing Bank" shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous
Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the
context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the
replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all
the rights and obligations of such Issuing Bank under this Agreement with
respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement but shall
not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.

         (j) Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be
continuing, (i) in the case of an Event of Default described in Section 7.01(h)
or (i), on the Business Day or (ii) in the case of any other Event of Default,
on the third Business Day, in each case, following the date on which the U.S.
Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent (or, if the maturity of
the Loans has been accelerated, U.S. Revolving Facility Lenders with Revolving
L/C Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total Revolving L/C Exposure)
demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, the U.S.
Borrower shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name
of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Lenders, an amount in
Dollars in cash equal to the Revolving L/C Exposure as of such date plus any
accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that (i) the portion of such
amount attributable to undrawn Foreign Currency Letters of Credit or L/C
Disbursements in a Foreign Currency that the U.S. Borrower is not late in
reimbursing pursuant to Section 2.05(e) shall be deposited with the
Administrative Agent in the applicable Foreign Currencies in the actual amounts
of such undrawn Letters of Credit and L/C Disbursements and (ii) upon the
occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to a Borrower described in
clause (h) or (i) of Section 7.01, the obligation to deposit such cash
collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become
immediately due and payable in Dollars, without demand or other notice of any
kind. The U.S. Borrower also shall deposit cash collateral

                                                                              62

pursuant to this paragraph as and to the extent required by Section 2.11(b).
Each such deposit pursuant to this paragraph or pursuant to Section 2.11(b)
shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and
performance of the obligations of the U.S. Borrower under this Agreement. The
Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the
exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned
on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the
option and sole discretion of (i) for so long as an Event of Default shall be
continuing, the Administrative Agent and (ii) at any other time, the U.S.
Borrower, in each case, in Permitted Investments and at the risk and expense of
the U.S. Borrower, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits,
if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such
account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse each Issuing
Bank for L/C Disbursements for which such Issuing Bank has not been reimbursed
and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the
reimbursement obligations of the U.S. Borrower for the Revolving L/C Exposure at
such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to
the consent of U.S. Revolving Facility Lenders with Revolving L/C Exposure
representing greater than 50% of the total Revolving L/C Exposure), be applied
to satisfy other obligations of the U.S. Borrower under this Agreement. If the
U.S. Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a
result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not
applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the U.S. Borrower within three
Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived. If the U.S.
Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder pursuant
to Section 2.11(b), such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall
be returned to the U.S. Borrower as and to the extent that, after giving effect
to such return, the U.S. Borrower would remain in compliance with Section
2.11(b) and no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

         (k) Conversion. In the event that the Loans become immediately due and
payable on any date pursuant to Section 7.01, all amounts (i) that the U.S.
Borrower is at such time or thereafter become required to reimburse or otherwise
pay to the Administrative Agent in respect of L/C Disbursements made under any
Foreign Currency Letter of Credit (other than amounts in respect of which the
U.S. Borrower has deposited cash collateral pursuant to Section 2.05(j), if such
cash collateral was deposited in the applicable Foreign Currency to the extent
so deposited or applied), (ii) that the U.S. Revolving Facility Lenders are at
the time or thereafter become required to pay to the Administrative Agent and
the Administrative Agent is at the time or thereafter becomes required to
distribute to an Issuing Bank pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section in
respect of unreimbursed L/C Disbursements made under any Foreign Currency Letter
of Credit and (iii) that constitute each U.S. Revolving Facility Lender's
participation in any Foreign Currency Letter of Credit under which a L/C
Disbursement has been made, in each case, shall, automatically and with no
further action required, be converted into the Dollar Equivalent, determined
using the Exchange Rates calculated as of such date (or in the case of any L/C
Disbursement made after such date, on the date such L/C Disbursement is made),
of such amounts. On and after such conversion, all amounts accruing and owed to
an Agent, an Issuing Bank or any Lender in respect of the Obligations described
in this paragraph shall accrue and be payable in Dollars at the rates otherwise
applicable hereunder.

         (l) Additional Issuing Banks. From time to time, the U.S. Borrower may
by notice to the Administrative Agent designate up to three Lenders (in addition
to JPMorgan Chase Bank) that agree (in their sole discretion) to act in such
capacity and are reasonably satisfactory

                                                                              63

to the Administrative Agent as Issuing Banks. Each such additional Issuing Bank
shall execute a counterpart of this Agreement upon the approval of the
Administrative Agent (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) and
shall thereafter be an Issuing Bank hereunder for all purposes.

         (m) Reporting. Unless otherwise requested by the Administrative Agent,
each Issuing Bank shall report in writing to the Administrative Agent (i) on the
first Business Day of each week and the first Business Day of each fiscal
quarter, the aggregate face amount of Letters of Credit issued by it and
outstanding as of the last Business Day of the preceding week or the preceding
fiscal quarter, as applicable, (ii) on or prior to each Business Day on which
such Issuing Bank expects to issue, amend, renew or extend any Letter of Credit,
the date of such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, and the aggregate
face amount of the Letters of Credit to be issued, amended, renewed or extended
by it and outstanding after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal
or extension occurred (and whether the amount thereof changed), (iii) on each
Business Day on which such Issuing Bank makes any L/C Disbursement, the date of
such L/C Disbursement and the amount of such L/C Disbursement and (iv) on any
other Business Day, such other information as the Administrative Agent shall
reasonably request.

         (n) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if, after
the Closing Date, any Change in Law shall make it unlawful for an Issuing Bank
to issue Letters of Credit denominated in a Foreign Currency, then by prompt
written notice thereof to the Borrowers and to the Administrative Agent (which
notice shall be withdrawn whenever such circumstances no longer exist), such
Issuing Bank may declare that Letters of Credit will not thereafter be issued by
it in the affected Foreign Currency or Foreign Currencies, whereupon the
affected Foreign Currency or Foreign Currencies shall be deemed (for the
duration of such declaration) not to constitute a Foreign Currency for purposes
of the issuance of Letters of Credit by such Issuing Bank.

         SECTION 3.06. Funding of Borrowings. (a) Each Lender shall make each
Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of
immediately available funds by 12:00 noon, Local Time, to the account of the
Applicable Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to
the Lenders; provided that Swingline Loans shall be made as provided in Section
2.04. The Applicable Agent will make such Loans available to the applicable
Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an
account of the applicable Borrower maintained with the Applicable Agent (i) in
New York City, in the case of Loans denominated in Dollars, or (ii) in London,
in the case of Loans denominated in a Foreign Currency and designated by the
applicable Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request; provided that ABR
Revolving Loans and Swingline Dollar Borrowings made to finance the
reimbursement of a L/C Disbursement and reimbursements as provided in Section
2.05(e) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the applicable Issuing
Bank.

         (b) Unless the Applicable Agent shall have received notice from a
Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not
make available to the Applicable Agent such Lender's share of such Borrowing,
the Applicable Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available
on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and may, in
reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrower a
corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share
of

                                                                              64

the applicable Borrowing available to the Applicable Agent, then the applicable
Lender and the applicable Borrower severally agree to pay to the Applicable
Agent forthwith on demand (without duplication) such corresponding amount with
interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made
available to the applicable Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the
Applicable Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, (x) the greater of the
Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent
in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation (in the case
of a Borrowing denominated in Dollars) or (y) the rate reasonably determined by
the Applicable Agent to be the cost to it of funding such amount (in the case of
a Borrowing denominated in a Foreign Currency) or (ii) in the case of the
applicable Borrower, the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans (in the case of a
Borrowing denominated in Dollars) or the rate reasonably determined by the
Applicable Agent to be the cost to it of funding such amount (in the case of a
Borrowing denominated in a Foreign Currency). If such Lender pays such amount to
the Applicable Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender's Loan
included in such Borrowing.

         SECTION 3.07. Interest Elections. (a) Each Borrowing initially shall be
of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a
Eurocurrency Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in
such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the applicable Borrower may elect to convert
such Borrowing to a different Type, in the case of Borrowings denominated in
Dollars, or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurocurrency
Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section.
The applicable Borrower may elect different options with respect to different
portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be
allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing,
and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate
Borrowing. This Section shall not apply to Swingline Foreign Currency Borrowings
or Swingline Dollar Borrowings, which may not be converted or continued.

         (b) To make an election pursuant to this Section, the applicable
Borrower shall notify the Applicable Agent of such election by telephone by the
time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if such
Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type and denominated in the Foreign
Currency resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such
election. Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable
and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Applicable
Agent of a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by the
Applicable Agent and signed by the applicable Borrower.

         (c) Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify
the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:

         (i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and,
    if different options are being elected with respect to different portions
    thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing
    (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and
    (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);

                                                                              65

         (ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest
    Election Request, which shall be a Business Day;

         (iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a
    Eurocurrency Borrowing; provided that the resulting Borrowing is required to
    be a Eurocurrency Borrowing in the case of a Borrowing denominated in a
    Foreign Currency; and

         (iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurocurrency Borrowing, the
    Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such
    election, which shall be a period contemplated by clause (a) of the
    definition of the term "Interest Period".

If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing but does
not specify an Interest Period, then the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to
have selected an Interest Period of one month's duration.

         (d) Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the
Applicable Agent shall advise each Lender to which such Interest Election
Request relates of the details thereof and of such Lender's portion of each
resulting Borrowing.

         (e) If the applicable Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest
Election Request with respect to a Eurocurrency Borrowing prior to the end of
the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as
provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be
converted to an ABR Borrowing (unless such Borrowing is denominated in a Foreign
Currency, in which case such Borrowing shall be continued as a Eurocurrency
Borrowing with an Interest Period of one month's duration commencing on the last
day of such Interest Period). Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if
an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent,
at the written request (including a request through electronic means) of the
Required Lenders, so notifies the applicable Borrower, then, so long as an Event
of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or
continued as a Eurocurrency Borrowing, (ii) unless repaid, each Eurocurrency
Borrowing denominated in Dollars shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the
end of the Interest Period applicable thereto and (iii) unless repaid, each
Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in a Foreign Currency shall be continued as a
Eurocurrency Borrowing with an Interest Period of one month's duration.

         SECTION 3.08. Termination and Reduction of Commitments. (a) Unless
previously terminated, the Global Revolving Facility Commitments shall terminate
on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date and the U.S. Revolving Facility
Commitments shall terminate on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date. The parties
hereto acknowledge that the Tranche A Commitments terminated at 5 p.m. New York
City time on the Closing Date and the Tranche C-1 Term Loan Commitments and the
Tranche C-2 Term Loan Commitments shall terminate at 5:00 p.m., New York City
time, on the Restatement Effective Date.

         (b) The U.S. Borrower (on behalf of itself and all Foreign Subsidiary
Borrowers) may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the
Commitments under any Facility; provided that (i) each reduction of the
Commitments under any Facility shall be in an amount

                                                                              66

that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000 (or, if
less, the remaining amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments) and (ii) the
U.S. Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Revolving Credit Commitments if,
after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Revolving Loans in
accordance with Section 2.11, (x) the Global Revolving Facility Credit Exposure
plus the total Ancillary Facility Commitments would exceed the total Global
Revolving Facility Commitments or (y) the U.S. Revolving Facility Credit
Exposure would exceed the total U.S. Revolving Facility Commitments.

         (c) The U.S. Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any
election to terminate or reduce the Revolving Credit Commitments under paragraph
(b) of this Section at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of
such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date
thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent
shall advise the applicable Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice
delivered by the U.S. Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable;
provided that a notice of termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments
delivered by the U.S. Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon
the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be
revoked by the U.S. Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior
to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any
termination or reduction of the Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction
of the Commitments under any Facility shall be made ratably among the Lenders in
accordance with their respective Commitments under such Facility.

         SECTION 3.09. Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. (a) The U.S.
Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay (i) to the Applicable Agent for
the account of each U.S. Revolving Facility Lender the then unpaid principal
amount of each U.S. Revolving Facility Loan to the U.S. Borrower on the
Revolving Credit Maturity Date, (ii) to the Applicable Agent for the account of
each Global Revolving Facility Lender the then unpaid amount of each Global
Revolving Facility Loan to the U.S. Borrower on the Revolving Credit Maturity
Date, (iii) to the Applicable Agent for the account of each Lender the then
unpaid principal amount of each Term Loan of such Lender as provided in Section
2.10 and (iv) to the Swingline Dollar Lender the then unpaid principal amount of
each Swingline Dollar Loan on the earlier of the Revolving Credit Maturity Date
and the first date after such Swingline Dollar Loan is made that is the 15th or
last day of a calendar month and is at least five Business Days after such
Swingline Dollar Loan is made; provided that on each date that a U.S. Revolving
Facility Borrowing is made by the U.S. Borrower, the U.S. Borrower shall repay
all Swingline Dollar Loans then outstanding. Each Foreign Subsidiary Borrower
hereby unconditionally promises to pay (i) to the Applicable Agent for the
account of each Global Revolving Facility Lender the then unpaid principal
amount of each Global Revolving Facility Loan to such Foreign Subsidiary
Borrower on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date and (ii) to each Swingline
Foreign Currency Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline
Foreign Currency Loan made by such Lender on the earlier of the Revolving Credit
Maturity Date and the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such
Swingline Foreign Currency Loan.

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

                                                                              67

         (c) Each Applicable Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall
record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Facility and Type thereof
and the Interest Period (if any) applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any
principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from each
Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) any amount received by such
Applicable Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender's
share thereof.

         (d) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph
(b) or (c) of this Section shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and
amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any
Lender or an Applicable Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein
shall not in any manner affect the obligation of any Borrower to repay the Loans
in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

         (e) Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a
promissory note. In such event, the applicable Borrower shall prepare, execute
and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to the order of such Lender
(or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and
in a form approved by the Applicable Agent. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by
such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after
assignment pursuant to Section 9.04) be represented by one or more promissory
notes in such form payable to the order of the payee named therein (or, if such
promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns).

         SECTION 3.10. Repayment of Term Loans and Revolving Loans. (a) Subject
to adjustment pursuant to paragraph (d) of this Section, the U.S. Borrower shall
repay Tranche A Term Borrowings on each date set forth below in the aggregate
principal amount set forth opposite such date (each such date being referred to
as a "Tranche A Installment Date")1:

         (c) To the extent not previously paid, (i) all Tranche A Term Loans
shall be due and payable on the Tranche A Maturity Date and (ii) all Tranche C
Term Loans shall be due and payable on the Tranche C Maturity Date.

         (d) Except as set forth in paragraph (e) below:

         (i) all Net Proceeds to be applied at any time to prepay Term
    Borrowings pursuant to Section 2.11(c) shall be applied to the Tranche A
    Term Borrowings, Tranche C-1 Term Borrowings and Tranche C-2 Term Borrowings
    ratably in accordance with the respective principal amounts outstanding
    thereof;

         (ii) Excess Cash Flow to be applied at any time to prepay Term
    Borrowings pursuant to Section 2.11(d) shall be applied to the Term
    Borrowings as directed by the U.S. Borrower;

                                                                              69

         (iii) each prepayment of principal of the Term Borrowings pursuant to
    Section 2.11(a) shall be applied to the Term Borrowings as directed by the
    U.S. Borrower; and

         (iv) any portion of the Koyo JV Purchase Amount to be applied to prepay
    Term Borrowings pursuant to Section 2.11(e) shall be applied to the Tranche
    A Term Borrowings, Tranche C-1 Term Borrowings and Tranche C-2 Term
    Borrowings ratably in accordance with the respective principal amounts
    outstanding thereof.

         Prepayments made pursuant to Section 2.11 shall be applied to each Term
Borrowing, (A) in the case of prepayments made pursuant to Section 2.11(a) or
Section 2.11(d), to reduce scheduled amortization payments under paragraphs (a)
and (b) above as directed by the U.S. Borrower and (B) in the case of
prepayments made pursuant to Section 2.11(c) or Section 2.11(e), (1) to reduce
in order of maturity the scheduled amortization payments under paragraphs (a)
and (b) above occurring within the 12-month period after the date of such
payment in respect of such Term Borrowing and (2) thereafter, to reduce on a pro
rata basis (based on the amount of such amortization payments) the remaining
scheduled amortization payments in respect of such Term Borrowing. For purposes
of determining any allocation made ratably or on a pro rata basis contemplated
under this paragraph at any time, the amount of any Tranche C-2 Term Loan shall
be the Dollar Equivalent of the principal amount thereof, determined using the
Exchange Rate calculated as of the date of such prepayment. For purposes of
determining the amount of any prepayment of Tranche C-2 Term Borrowings pursuant
to Section 2.11(c), 2.11(d) or 2.11(e), the applicable Exchange Rate on the date
such prepayment is to be made shall be used.

         (e) Any Lender holding Tranche C-1 Term Loans or Tranche C-2 Term Loans
may elect, on not less than two Business Days' prior written notice to the
Administrative Agent with respect to any mandatory prepayment made pursuant to
Section 2.11(c), 2.11(d) or 2.11(e), not to have such prepayment applied to such
Lender's Tranche C-1 Term Loans or Tranche C-2 Term Loans, as applicable, in
which case (i) so long as Tranche A Term Borrowings are outstanding (A) an
amount equal to 50% of the amount not so applied shall be applied to prepay
Tranche A Term Borrowings, and shall reduce scheduled payments under Section
2.10(a) after the date of any prepayment on the same basis as is provided for
the respective types of payments pursuant to Section 2.10(d) and (B) 50% of the
amount not so applied shall be retained by the U.S. Borrower and (ii) once all
Tranche A Term Borrowings have been repaid in full, the amount not so applied
shall be retained by the U.S. Borrower.

         (f) Prior to any repayment of any Borrowing under any Facility
hereunder, the U.S. Borrower or the applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, as
applicable, shall select the Borrowing or Borrowings under the applicable
Facility to be repaid and shall notify the Applicable Agent by telephone
(confirmed by telecopy) of such selection not later than 2:00 p.m., Local Time,
(i) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, one Business Day before the scheduled date
of such repayment and (ii) in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, three
Business Days before the scheduled date of such repayment. Each repayment of a
Borrowing (x) in the case of the Global Revolving Facility, shall be applied to
the Global Revolving Facility Loans included in the repaid Borrowing such that
each Global Revolving Facility Lender receives its ratable share of such
repayment (based upon the respective Global Revolving Facility Credit Exposures
of the Global Revolving Facility Lenders at the time of such repayment) and (y)
in all other cases, shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the repaid
Borrowing. Notwithstanding

                                                                              70

anything to the contrary in the immediately preceding sentence, prior to any
repayment of a Swingline Dollar Borrowing or a Swingline Foreign Currency
Borrowing hereunder, the U.S. Borrower or the applicable Foreign Subsidiary
Borrower, as applicable, shall select the Borrowing or Borrowings to be repaid
and shall notify the Applicable Agent by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of
such selection not later than 1:00 p.m., Local Time, on the scheduled date of
such repayment. Repayments of Borrowings shall be accompanied by accrued
interest on the amount repaid.

         SECTION 3.11. Prepayment of Loans. (a) The applicable Borrower shall
have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing in
whole or in part, without premium or penalty (but subject to Section 2.16), in
an aggregate principal amount that is an integral multiple of the Borrowing
Multiple and not less than the Borrowing Minimum or, if less, the amount
outstanding, subject to prior notice in accordance with Section 2.10(f).

         (b) In the event and on such occasion that (i) (A) the sum of (1) the
Global Revolving Facility Credit Exposure and (2) the total Ancillary
Commitments exceeds (B) (x) 105% of the total Global Revolving Facility
Commitments solely as a result of currency fluctuations or (y) the total Global
Revolving Facility Commitments (other than as a result of currency
fluctuations), the Borrowers under the Global Revolving Facility shall prepay
Global Revolving Facility Borrowings or Swingline Foreign Currency Borrowings
made to such Borrowers, or reduce total Ancillary Commitments, in an aggregate
amount equal to the amount by which (A) the sum of (1) the Global Revolving
Facility Credit Exposure and (2) the total Ancillary Commitments exceeds (B) the
total Global Revolving Facility Commitments or (ii) the U.S. Revolving Facility
Credit Exposure exceeds (A) 105% of the total U.S. Revolving Facility
Commitments solely as a result of currency fluctuations or (B) the total U.S.
Revolving Facility Commitments (other than as a result of currency
fluctuations), the U.S. Borrower shall prepay U.S. Revolving Facility Borrowings
or Swingline Dollar Borrowings (or, if no such Borrowings are outstanding,
deposit cash collateral in an account with the Administrative Agent pursuant to
Section 2.05(j)) in an aggregate amount equal to the amount by which the U.S.
Revolving Facility Credit Exposure exceeds the total U.S. Revolving Facility
Commitments.

         (c) The U.S. Borrower shall apply all Net Proceeds promptly upon
receipt thereof to prepay Term Borrowings in accordance with paragraphs (d)
through (f) of Section 2.10.

         (d) Not later than 90 days after the end of each Excess Cash Flow
Period, the U.S. Borrower shall calculate Excess Cash Flow for such Excess Cash
Flow Period and shall apply an amount equal to the Required Percentage of such
Excess Cash Flow to prepay Term Borrowings in accordance with paragraphs (d)
through (f) of Section 2.10. Not later than the date on which the U.S. Borrower
is required to deliver financial statements with respect to the end of each
Excess Cash Flow Period under Section 5.04(a), the U.S. Borrower will deliver to
the Administrative Agent a certificate signed by a Financial Officer of the U.S.
Borrower setting forth the amount, if any, of Excess Cash Flow for such fiscal
year and the calculation thereof in reasonable detail.

                                                                              71

         (e) Not later than the 12-month anniversary of the Closing Date, the
U.S. Borrower shall apply an amount equal to the Koyo JV Purchase Amount at such
time to prepay Term Borrowings in accordance with paragraphs (d) through (f) of
Section 2.10.

         SECTION 3.12. Fees. (a) The U.S. Borrower (on behalf of itself and the
Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers) agrees to pay to each Lender (other than any
Defaulting Lender), through the Administrative Agent, 10 Business Days after the
last day of March, June, September and December in each year, and three Business
Days after the date on which the Revolving Credit Commitments of all the Lenders
shall be terminated as provided herein, a commitment fee (a "Commitment Fee") on
the sum of (a) the daily unused amount of the U.S. Revolving Facility
Commitment, (b) the daily amount of the Available Unused Commitment and (c) the
daily unused amount of the Ancillary Commitment of such Lender during the
preceding quarter (or other period commencing with the Closing Date or ending
with the date on which the last of the Commitments of such Lender shall be
terminated) at a rate equal to (x) 0.75% per annum in respect of each day on
which the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure (excluding the Swingline
Exposures) is less than or equal to 50% of the Total Revolving Credit Commitment
or the Leverage Ratio is greater than 3.25 to 1.00, (y) 0.50% per annum in
respect of each day on which the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure (excluding
the Swingline Exposures) represents more than 50% of the Total Revolving Credit
Commitment or the Leverage Ratio is less than or equal to 3.25 to 1.00 but
greater than 2.00 to 1.00 and (z) 0.375%, if the Leverage Ratio is less than or
equal to 2.00 to 1.00 (without regard to the Aggregate Revolving Credit
Exposure). All Commitment Fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual
number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days. For the purpose of calculating any
Lender's Commitment Fee, the outstanding Swingline Loans during the period for
which such Lender's Commitment Fee is calculated shall be deemed to be zero. The
Commitment Fee due to each Lender shall commence to accrue on the Closing Date
and shall cease to accrue on the date on which the last of the Commitments of
such Lender shall be terminated as provided herein.

         (b) The U.S. Borrower (on behalf of itself and the Foreign Subsidiary
Borrowers) from time to time agrees to pay (i) to each U.S. Revolving Facility
Lender (other than any Defaulting Lender), through the Administrative Agent, 10
Business Days after the last day of March, June, September and December of each
year and three Business Days after the date on which the Revolving Credit
Commitments of all the Lenders shall be terminated as provided herein, a fee (an
"L/C Participation Fee") on such Lender's U.S. Revolving Facility Percentage of
the daily aggregate Revolving L/C Exposure (excluding the portion thereof
attributable to unreimbursed L/C Disbursements), during the preceding quarter
(or shorter period commencing with the Closing Date or ending with the Revolving
Credit Maturity Date or the date on which the U.S. Revolving Facility
Commitments shall be terminated) at the rate per annum equal to the Applicable
Margin for Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowings effective for each day in such
period minus the amount of Issuing Bank Fees (as defined below) set forth in
clause (ii)(x) below and (ii) to each Issuing Bank, for its own account, (x)
three Business Days after the last day of March, June, September and December of
each year and three Business Days after the date on which the U.S. Revolving
Facility Commitments of all the Lenders shall be terminated as provided herein,
a fronting fee in respect of each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank
for the period from and including the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit
to and including the termination of such Letter of Credit, computed at a rate
equal to 1/4 of 1% per annum of the daily average stated amount of such Letter
of Credit), plus (y) in connection with

                                                                              72

the issuance, amendment or transfer of any such Letter of Credit or any L/C
Disbursement thereunder, such Issuing Bank's customary documentary and
processing charges (collectively, "Issuing Bank Fees"). All L/C Participation
Fees and Issuing Bank Fees that are payable on a per annum basis shall be
computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360
days.

         (c) The U.S. Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for
the account of the Administrative Agent, the fees set forth in the
Administrative Agent Fee Letter dated as of November 15, 2002, as amended,
restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, at the times
specified therein (the "Administrative Agent Fees").

         (d) All Fees shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available
funds, to the Administrative Agent for distribution, if and as appropriate,
among the Lenders, except that Issuing Bank Fees shall be paid directly to the
applicable Issuing Banks. Once paid, none of the Fees shall be refundable under
any circumstances.

         SECTION 3.13. Interest. (a) The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing
(including each Swingline Dollar Loan) shall bear interest at the Alternate Base
Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

         (b) The Loans comprising each Eurocurrency Borrowing shall bear
interest at the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such
Borrowing plus the Applicable Margin.

         (c) The Swingline Foreign Currency Loans comprising each Swingline
Foreign Currency Borrowing shall bear interest at the Swingline Foreign Currency
Rate plus 1.50% per annum plus the Applicable Margin then in effect for
Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowings.

         (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on
any Loan or any Fees or other amount payable by the applicable Borrower
hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or
otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before
judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of
any Loan, 2% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the
preceding paragraphs of this Section or (ii) in the case of any other amount (x)
payable in Dollars, 2% plus the rate applicable to ABR Loans as provided in
paragraph (a) of this Section or (y) payable in a Foreign Currency, the rate set
forth in clause (i) of this sentence; provided that this paragraph (d) shall not
apply to any Event of Default that has been waived by the Lenders pursuant to
Section 9.08.

         (e) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears (i) on
each Interest Payment Date for such Loan, (ii) in the case of Global Revolving
Facility Loans, upon termination of the Global Revolving Facility Commitments,
(iii) in the case of U.S. Revolving Facility Loans, upon termination of the U.S.
Revolving Facility Commitments, (iv) in the case of the Tranche A Term Loans, on
the Tranche A Maturity Date and (v) in the case of the Tranche C Term Loans, on
the Tranche C Maturity Date; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to
paragraph (d) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of
any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of an ABR
Revolving Loan prior to the end of

                                                                              73

the Availability Period), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or
prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii)
in the event of any conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan prior to the end of the
current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable
on the effective date of such conversion.

         (f) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of
360 days, except that (i) interest on Borrowings denominated in Sterling and
(ii) interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the
Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis of
a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be
payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but
excluding the last day). The applicable Alternate Base Rate, Adjusted LIBO Rate
or LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Applicable Agent, and such determination
shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

         SECTION 3.14. Alternate Rate of Interest. If prior to the commencement
of any Interest Period for a Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in any currency:

         (a) the Applicable Agent determines (which determination shall be
    conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not
    exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO Rate, as
    applicable, for such Interest Period; or

         (b) the Applicable Agent is advised by the Required Lenders or the
    Majority Lenders under the Global Revolving Facility that the Adjusted LIBO
    Rate or the LIBO Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period will not
    adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or
    maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period;

then the Applicable Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrowers and the
Lenders by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and,
until the Applicable Agent notifies the Borrowers and the Lenders that the
circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest
Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or
continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in such
currency shall be ineffective and such Borrowing shall be converted to or
continued as on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto (A) if
such Borrowing is denominated in Dollars, an ABR Borrowing or (B) if such
Borrowing is denominated in a Foreign Currency, as a Borrowing bearing interest
at such rate as the Majority Lenders under the Global Revolving Facility and the
applicable Borrower shall agree adequately reflects the costs to the Global
Revolving Facility Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans, and (ii) if any
Borrowing Request requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing in such currency, such
Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing (if such Borrowing is requested to
be made in Dollars) or shall be made as a Borrowing bearing interest at such
rate as the Majority Lenders under the Global Revolving Facility shall agree
adequately reflects the costs to the Global Revolving Facility Lenders of making
the Loans comprising such Borrowing.

         SECTION 3.15. Increased Costs. (a) If any Change in Law shall:

                                                                              74

         (i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or
    similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of,
    or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement
    reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate or those for which payment has been
    requested pursuant to Section 2.21) or Issuing Bank; or

         (ii) impose on any Lender or Issuing Bank or the London interbank
    market any other condition affecting this Agreement, Eurocurrency Loans or
    Swingline Foreign Currency Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit
    or participation therein (except those for which payment has been requested
    pursuant to Section 2.21);

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such
Lender of making or maintaining any Eurocurrency Loan or Swingline Foreign
Currency Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to
increase the cost to such Lender or Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing or
maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount of any sum received or
receivable by such Lender or Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal,
interest or otherwise), then the applicable Borrower (in the case of a Loan) or
the U.S. Borrower (in the case of a Letter of Credit) will pay to such Lender or
Issuing Bank, as applicable, such additional amount or amounts as will
compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, for such additional costs
incurred or reduction suffered.

         (b) If any Lender or Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law
regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate
of return on such Lender's or Issuing Bank's capital or on the capital of such
Lender's or Issuing Bank's holding company, if any, as a consequence of this
Agreement or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by,
such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, to a level
below that which such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender's or such
Issuing Bank's holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law
(taking into consideration such Lender's or such Issuing Bank's policies and the
policies of such Lender's or such Issuing Bank's holding company with respect to
capital adequacy), then from time to time the applicable Borrower (in the case
of a Loan) or the U.S. Borrower (in the case of a Letter of Credit) shall pay to
such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as applicable, such additional amount or
amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender's or
such Issuing Bank's holding company for any such reduction suffered.

         (c) A certificate of a Lender or an Issuing Bank setting forth the
amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank or its
holding company, as applicable, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this
Section shall be delivered to the applicable Borrower (in the case of a Loan) or
the U.S. Borrower (in the case of a Letter of Credit) and shall be conclusive
absent manifest error. The applicable Borrower (in the case of a Loan) or the
U.S. Borrower (in the case of a Letter of Credit) shall pay such Lender or
Issuing Bank, as applicable, the amount shown as due on any such certificate
within 10 days after receipt thereof.

         (d) Promptly after any Lender or any Issuing Bank has determined that
it will make a request for increased compensation pursuant to this Section 2.15,
such Lender or Issuing Bank shall notify the applicable Borrower thereof.
Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or Issuing Bank to demand
compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such
Lender's or Issuing Bank's right to demand such compensation; provided that a
Borrower

                                                                              75

shall not be required to compensate a Lender or an Issuing Bank pursuant to this
Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior
to the date that such Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, notifies such
Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions
and of such Lender's or Issuing Bank's intention to claim compensation therefor;
provided, further, that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased
costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above
shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

         SECTION 3.16. Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment
of any principal of any Eurocurrency Loan or Swingline Foreign Currency Loan
other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including
as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan
other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the
failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurocurrency Loan on the date
specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto or (d) the assignment of any
Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable
thereto as a result of a request by a Borrower pursuant to Section 2.19, then,
in any such event, such Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost
and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurocurrency Loan or
Swingline Foreign Currency Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall
be deemed to be the amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any,
of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount
of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate that would
have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to
the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a
failure to borrow, convert or continue a Eurocurrency Loan, for the period that
would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of
interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the
interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of
such period, for deposits in the applicable Foreign Currency of a comparable
amount and period from other banks in the eurodollar market. A certificate of
any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to
receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to such Borrower and shall
be conclusive absent manifest error. Such Borrower shall pay such Lender the
amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt
thereof.

         SECTION 3.17. Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by or on account of any
obligation of any Borrower hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without
deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if a Borrower
shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such
payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after
making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional
sums payable under this Section) any Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank, as
applicable, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no
such deductions been made, (ii) such Borrower shall make such deductions and
(iii) such Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant
Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

         (b) In addition, the Borrowers shall pay any Other Taxes to the
relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

         (c) Each Borrower shall indemnify the Agents, each Lender and each
Issuing Bank, within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount
of any Indemnified

                                                                              76

Taxes or Other Taxes paid by such Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable,
on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of such
Borrower hereunder (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or
asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) and any
penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect
thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or
legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A
certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to such
Borrower by a Lender or an Issuing Bank, or by the Administrative Agent on its
own behalf, on behalf of another Agent or on behalf of a Lender or an Issuing
Bank, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

         (d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or
Other Taxes by a Borrower to a Governmental Authority, such Borrower shall
deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a
receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of
the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

         (e) Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or
reduction of withholding Tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which a
Borrower is located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with
respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to such Borrower (with a
copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable
law, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable
law or reasonably requested by such Borrower as will permit such payments to be
made without withholding or at a reduced rate.

         (f) If an Agent or a Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it
has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been
indemnified by a Borrower or with respect to which such Borrower has paid
additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.17, it shall pay over such refund
to such Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or
additional amounts paid, by such Borrower under this Section 2.17 with respect
to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all
out-of-pocket expenses of such Agent or such Lender and without interest (other
than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to
such refund); provided that such Borrower, upon the request of such Agent or
such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to such Borrower (plus any
penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental
Authority) to such Agent or such Lender in the event such Agent or such Lender
is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This Section
shall not be construed to require any Agent or any Lender to make available its
Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems
confidential) to the Borrowers or any other person.

         SECTION 3.18. Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of
Set-offs. (a) Unless otherwise specified, each Borrower shall make each payment
required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees or
reimbursement of L/C Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.15,
2.16, 2.17 or 2.21, or otherwise) prior to 1:00 p.m., Local Time, on the date
when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim. Any
amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the
Applicable Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding
Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments
shall be made to the Applicable Agent to the

                                                                              77

applicable account designated to the U.S. Borrower by each Applicable Agent,
except payments to be made directly to the applicable Issuing Bank or the
applicable Swingline Lender as expressly provided herein and except that
payments pursuant to Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17, 2.21 and 9.05 shall be made
directly to the persons entitled thereto. The Applicable Agent shall distribute
any such payments received by it for the account of any other person to the
appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment
hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment
shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any
payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of
such extension. All payments hereunder of (i) principal or interest in respect
of any Loan shall be made in the currency in which such Loan is denominated,
(ii) reimbursement obligations shall, subject to Sections 2.05(e) and 2.05(k),
be made in the currency in which the Letter of Credit in respect of which such
reimbursement obligation exists is denominated or (iii) any other amount due
hereunder or under another Loan Document (other than an Ancillary Facility
Document) shall be made in Dollars. Any payment required to be made by an
Applicable Agent hereunder shall be deemed to have been made by the time
required if such Applicable Agent shall, at or before such time, have taken the
necessary steps to make such payment in accordance with the regulations or
operating procedures of the clearing or settlement system used by such
Applicable Agent to make such payment. Any amount payable by any Applicable
Agent to one or more Lenders in the national currency of a member state of the
European Union that has adopted the Euro as its lawful currency shall be paid in
Euros.

         (b) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to
the Applicable Agent from any Borrower to pay fully all amounts of principal,
unreimbursed L/C Disbursements, interest and fees then due from such Borrower
hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest
and fees then due from such Borrower hereunder, ratably among the parties
entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to
such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal and unreimbursed L/C
Disbursements then due from such Borrower hereunder, ratably among the parties
entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and unreimbursed
L/C Disbursements then due to such parties.

         (c) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or
counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or
interest on any of its Term Loans, Revolving Loans or participations in L/C
Disbursements or Swingline Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a
greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Term Loans, Revolving Loans
and participations in L/C Disbursements and Swingline Loans and accrued interest
thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender
receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value)
participations in the Term Loans, Revolving Loans and participations in L/C
Disbursements and Swingline Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so
that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in
accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on
their respective Term Loans, Revolving Loans and participations in L/C
Disbursements and Swingline Loans; provided that (i) if any such participations
are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is
recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price
restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the
provisions of this paragraph (c) shall not be construed to apply to any payment
made by a Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this
Agreement or any payment obtained by a

                                                                              78

Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any
of its Loans or participations in L/C Disbursements to any assignee or
participant, other than to such Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof
(as to which the provisions of this paragraph (c) shall apply). Each Borrower
consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so
under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the
foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Borrower rights of set-off and
counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were
a direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such participation.

         (d) Unless the Applicable Agent shall have received notice from a
Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Applicable Agent
for the account of the Lenders or the applicable Issuing Bank hereunder that
such Borrower will not make such payment, the Applicable Agent may assume that
such Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may,
in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the applicable
Issuing Bank, as applicable, the amount due. In such event, if such Borrower has
not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the applicable
Issuing Bank, as applicable, severally agrees to repay to the Applicable Agent
forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or Issuing Bank
with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is
distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative
Agent, at (i) the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate
determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules
on interbank compensation (in the case of an amount denominated in Dollars) and
(ii) the rate reasonably determined by the Applicable Agent to be the cost to it
of funding such amount (in the case of an amount denominated in a Foreign
Currency).

         (e) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by
it pursuant to Section 2.04(c), 2.05(d) or (e), 2.06(b) or 2.18(d), then the
Applicable Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision
hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Applicable Agent for the
account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender's obligations under such Sections
until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.

         SECTION 3.19. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. (a) If
any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15 or 2.21, or if a Borrower is
required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental
Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, then such
Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for
funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations
hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if, in the
reasonable judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would
eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.15, 2.17 or 2.21, as
applicable, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any material
unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such
Lender in any material respect. Each Borrower hereby agrees to pay all
reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such
designation or assignment.

         (b) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15 or 2.21, or
if a Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any
Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17,
or is a Defaulting Lender, then such Borrower may, at its sole expense and
effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative

                                                                              79

Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in
accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all
its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that
shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender
accepts such assignment); provided that (i) such Borrower shall have received
the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, which consent shall not
unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an
amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in L/C
Disbursements and Swingline Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and
all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of
such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or such Borrower (in
the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of any such assignment
resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.15 or 2.21 or payments
required to be made pursuant to Section 2.17, such assignment will result in a
reduction in such compensation or payments. Nothing in this Section 2.19 shall
be deemed to prejudice any rights that any Borrower may have against any Lender
that is a Defaulting Lender.

         SECTION 3.20. Foreign Subsidiary Loan Parties. On or after the Closing
Date, the U.S. Borrower may designate any Foreign Subsidiary that is a Wholly
Owned Subsidiary as a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower by delivery to the
Administrative Agent of a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Agreement executed by such
Foreign Subsidiary and the U.S. Borrower. Each such designation shall specify
whether such Foreign Subsidiary shall be entitled (i) to make Borrowings under
the Global Revolving Facility and request Letters of Credit under the U.S.
Revolving Facility and/or (ii) to request the creation of Ancillary Facilities
under Section 2.22, and each such designation shall be subject to the consent of
the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld).
Upon the execution by the U.S. Borrower and delivery to the Administrative Agent
of a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Termination with respect to any Foreign
Subsidiary Borrower, such Foreign Subsidiary shall cease to be a Foreign
Subsidiary Borrower and a party to this Agreement; provided that no Foreign
Subsidiary Borrower Termination will become effective as to any Foreign
Subsidiary Borrower (other than to terminate such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower's
right to make further Borrowings under this Agreement) at a time when any
principal of or interest on any Loan to such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower or any
Foreign Currency Letter of Credit for the account of such Foreign Subsidiary
Borrower shall be outstanding hereunder or any Ancillary Facility under which
Ancillary Credit Extensions may be made available to such Foreign Subsidiary
Borrower has not been previously terminated. Promptly following receipt of any
Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Agreement or Foreign Subsidiary Borrower
Termination, the Administrative Agent shall send a copy thereof to each
Revolving Credit Lender. The U.S. Borrower shall be entitled to designate any
Foreign Subsidiary that complies with the requirements described in Section
5.10(f) as a Foreign Subsidiary Loan Party.

         SECTION 3.21. Additional Reserve Costs. (a) For so long as any Lender
is required to make special deposits with the Bank of England or comply with
reserve assets, liquidity, cash margin or other requirements of the Bank of
England, to maintain reserve asset ratios or to pay fees, in each case in
respect of such Lender's Eurocurrency Loans or Swingline Foreign Currency Loans,
such Lender shall be entitled to require the applicable Borrower to pay,
contemporaneously with each payment of interest on each of such Loans,
additional interest on such Loan at a rate per annum equal to the Mandatory
Costs Rate calculated in accordance with the formula and in the manner set forth
in Exhibit L hereto.

                                                                              80

         (b) For so long as any Lender is required to comply with reserve
assets, liquidity, cash margin or other requirements of any monetary or other
authority (including any such requirement imposed by the European Central Bank
or the European System of Central Banks, but excluding requirements reflected in
the Statutory Reserves or the Mandatory Costs Rate) in respect of any of such
Lender's Eurocurrency Loans Swingline Foreign Currency Loans, such Lender shall
be entitled to require the applicable Borrower to pay, contemporaneously with
each payment of interest on each of such Lender's Loans subject to such
requirements, additional interest on such Loan at a rate per annum specified by
such Lender to be the cost to such Lender of complying with such requirements in
relation to such Loan.

         (c) Any additional interest owed pursuant to paragraph (a) or (b) above
shall be determined by the applicable Lender, which determination shall be
conclusive absent manifest error, and notified to the applicable Borrower (with
a copy to the Administrative Agent) at least five Business Days before each date
on which interest is payable for the applicable Loan, and such additional
interest so notified to the applicable Borrower by such Lender shall be payable
to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender on each date on which
interest is payable for such Loan.

         SECTION 3.22. Ancillary Facilities. (a) General. If a Foreign
Subsidiary Borrower and a Global Revolving Facility Lender agree, subject to (i)
compliance with the requirements set forth in this Section 2.22 and (ii) such
Foreign Subsidiary Borrower having complied with Sections 2.20 and 4.03, such
Global Revolving Facility Lender shall be permitted to provide an Ancillary
Facility on a bilateral basis to such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower. The total
Ancillary Commitments shall not at any time exceed the Ancillary Commitment
Limit.

         (b) Creation of Ancillary Facilities. To request the creation of an
Ancillary Facility, a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall deliver to the

              (C) the type of Ancillary Facility being provided;

              (D) the identity of the Ancillary Lender; and

              (E) the amount of the Ancillary Commitment with respect to such
         Ancillary Facility (which shall be expressed in Dollars and shall not
         (x) exceed the Available Unused Commitment of such Ancillary Lender on
         the first date on which such Ancillary Facility shall be made available
         or (y) when combined with all Ancillary

                                                                              81

         Commitments of the Ancillary Lenders, exceed the Ancillary Commitment
         Limit) and the Foreign Currencies in which such Ancillary Facilities

         (iii) such other information that the Administrative Agent may
    reasonably request in connection with such Ancillary Facility.

The Administrative Agent shall give notice to each Global Revolving Facility
Lender of such matters. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the 10
Business Day notice period specified in the first sentence of this paragraph
shall not apply to any Closing Date Ancillary Facility.

         (c) Amendment of Ancillary Facilities. To request an amendment of an
Ancillary Facility, the applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall deliver to
the Administrative Agent, not later than five Business Days prior to the

clauses (i)(B) and (i)(E) of paragraph (b) of this Section and in paragraph (d)
of this Section. The Administrative Agent shall give notice to each Global
Revolving Facility Lender of such matters.

         (d) Terms of Ancillary Facility. Each Ancillary Facility shall contain
terms and conditions acceptable to the applicable Ancillary Lender and the
applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower thereunder; provided that such terms
shall at all times: (i) be based upon normal commercial terms at the time of the
creation of such Ancillary Facility pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section;
(ii) permit extensions of credit thereunder to be made only to such Foreign
Subsidiary Borrower; (iii) provide that the Ancillary Commitment of the

amount of such excess; (iv) provide that the Ancillary Commitment under such
Ancillary Facility be canceled, and that all extensions of credit under such
Ancillary Facility be repaid, not later than the Revolving Credit Maturity Date;
(v) provide that the conditions set forth in Section 4.01 shall be conditions to
each extension of credit under such Ancillary Facility; and (vi) not provide for

    effective date of such termination (an "Ancillary Facility Termination
    Date"), all Ancillary Credit Extensions under such Ancillary Facility shall
    be refinanced with the proceeds of an Ancillary Replacement Borrowing as set
    forth below, unless the Loans shall have been accelerated pursuant to
    Section 7.01.

         (ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the
    Ancillary Facility Document relating to the Ancillary Facility to be
    terminated, the Ancillary Lender seeking to terminate an Ancillary Facility
    shall deliver to the Applicable Agent, with a copy to the applicable Foreign
    Subsidiary Borrower, a written notice of termination (a "Notice of
    Termination") not later than five Business Days prior to the Ancillary
    Facility Termination Date specified in such Notice of Termination for such
    Ancillary Facility. Each such Notice of Termination shall specify:

              (A) the names of the applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower and
         Ancillary Lender;

              (B) the aggregate amount of Ancillary Credit Extensions under the
         applicable Ancillary Facility (which shall not exceed the Ancillary
         Commitment in respect of such Ancillary Facility) (the "Ancillary
         Facility Repayment Amount"); and

              (C) the applicable Ancillary Facility Termination Date.

         (iii) Following receipt of a Notice of Termination with respect to an
    Ancillary Facility, the applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall deliver
    to the Applicable Agent a written notice not later than 2:00 p.m., Local
    Time, three Business Days prior to the Ancillary Facility Termination Date
    with respect to such Ancillary Facility, which notice shall specify the
    following information relating to an Ancillary Replacement Borrowing:

              (A) the name of the Eligible Borrower that shall make such
         Ancillary Replacement Borrowing;

              (B) the currency in which such Ancillary Replacement Borrowing is
         to be denominated (which shall be Dollars, Euros or Sterling);

              (C) the initial Interest Period to be applicable to such Ancillary
         Replacement Borrowing, which shall be a period contemplated by clause
         (a) of the definition of the term "Interest Period"; and

              (D) the location and number of the applicable Eligible Borrower's
         account to which funds are to be disbursed.

         (iv) On the Ancillary Facility Termination Date for an Ancillary
    Facility, the Global Revolving Facility Lenders shall make Loans composing
    an Ancillary Replacement Borrowing in an aggregate principal amount equal to
    the Ancillary Facility Repayment amount in accordance with Sections 2.02 and
    2.06.

                                                                              83

         (v) The Eligible Borrower to which such Ancillary Replacement Borrowing
    is made shall use the proceeds of such Ancillary Replacement Borrowing
    solely (i) to repay to the applicable Ancillary Lender all Funded Ancillary
    Credit Extensions under such terminated Ancillary Facility and (ii) to
    deposit cash collateral with such Ancillary Lender in respect of all
    Unfunded Ancillary Credit Extensions under such terminated Ancillary
    Facility. Each deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph shall
    be held by the applicable Global Revolving Facility Lender as collateral for
    the payment and performance of the obligations of the applicable Foreign
    Subsidiary Borrower in respect of Unfunded Ancillary Credit Extensions under
    such terminated Ancillary Facility. Such Global Revolving Facility Lender
    shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of
    withdrawal, over such account; provided that, on the CAM Exchange Date, the
    Administrative Agent shall assume exclusive dominion and control, including
    the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any
    interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall
    be made at the option and sole discretion of (i) for so long as an Event of
    Default shall be continuing, the applicable Global Revolving Facility Lender
    and (ii) at any other time, the applicable Eligible Borrower, in each case,
    in Permitted Investments and at the risk and expense of such Eligible
    Borrower, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if
    any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such
    account shall be applied by the applicable Global Revolving Facility Lender
    to offset amounts payable in respect of Unfunded Ancillary Credit Extensions
    made under such terminated Ancillary Facility. In the event that after the
    ancillary Facility Termination Date for an ancillary Facility but prior to
    the CAM Exchange Date, an Unfunded Ancillary Credit Extension made under
    such terminated Ancillary Facility shall expire without requiring payment,
    the portion of the cash collateral deposited hereunder with respect to such
    expired Unfunded Ancillary Credit Extension shall be distributed to the
    applicable Eligible Borrower.

         (f) Cancelation by Foreign Subsidiary Borrower. The Foreign Subsidiary
Borrower to which an Ancillary Facility has been made available shall be
permitted at any time to request the cancelation of all or a portion of such
Ancillary Facility by delivery of a notice in writing to the Administrative
Agent and the applicable Ancillary Lender, specifying the Ancillary Facility to
be canceled and the proposed cancelation date. Such notice shall be delivered
not less than five Business Days prior to the proposed cancelation date. Such
cancelation shall be effective as of the proposed cancelation date unless the
Ancillary Facility Exposure under such Ancillary Facility has not been reduced
to zero as of such date.

         (g) Additional Information. Each Ancillary Lender shall report in
writing to the Administrative Agent on the first Business Day of each fiscal
quarter (i) the Ancillary Facility Exposure for each day during the preceding
fiscal quarter for each Ancillary Facility under which it is an Ancillary Lender
and (ii) the portion (expressed in Dollars) of its Ancillary Commitment that was
unused on each day during the preceding fiscal quarter for each Ancillary
Facility under which it is an Ancillary Lender. In addition, each Foreign
Subsidiary Borrower to which an Ancillary Facility has been made available and
each Ancillary Lender shall, upon request by the Administrative Agent, promptly
supply the Administrative Agent with any information relating to the operation
of such Ancillary Facility (including the Ancillary Facility Exposure) as the
Administrative Agent may reasonably request.

                                                                              84

         (h) Conflict with Loan Documents. In the event of any conflict between
the terms of an Ancillary Facility Document and any other Loan Document (other
than an Ancillary Facility Document), the terms of such other Loan Document
shall govern.

         (i) Termination and Expiration of Ancillary Commitments. On each date
on which an Ancillary Facility expires, is terminated or is canceled (in whole
or in part), the Available Unused Commitment of the Ancillary Lender under such
Ancillary Facility shall be increased by an amount equal to the portion of such
Ancillary Facility that has expired or been canceled, unless the Global
Revolving Facility Commitments shall have been previously terminated.

                                   ARTICLE IV

other instrument, where any such conflict, violation, breach or default referred

delivered by Holdings, Intermediate Holdings and each Borrower and constitutes,
and each other Loan Document when executed and delivered by each Loan Party that

December 31, 2000 and December 31, 2001, audited by and accompanied by the
opinion of Ernst & Young LLP, independent public accountants as set forth in the
Offering Memorandum and (ii) as of and for the nine-month period ended September
30, 2002, reviewed by Ernst & Young LLP pursuant to Statement of Auditing
Standards No. 71, as set forth in the Offering Memorandum. Such combined
financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial
position and results of operations of TRW Automotive Inc. and subsidiaries as of
such dates and for such periods. None of Holdings, Intermediate Holdings, the
U.S. Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries has or shall have as of the Closing
Date any Guarantee, contingent liability or liability for Taxes, or any
long-term lease or unusual forward or long-term commitment, including any
interest rate or foreign currency hedging transaction, that individually is
material and is not reflected in the foregoing statements or the notes thereto,
other than pursuant to the Loan Documents and except pursuant to the documents
relating to the Transactions set forth on Schedule 3.05 to this Agreement. Such
financial statements were prepared in accordance with GAAP (subject to normal
year-end audit adjustments and the absence of footnotes in the case of clause
(ii) above).

                                                                              86

         (b) The U.S. Borrower has heretofore furnished to the Lenders its pro
forma consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2002, prepared giving
effect to the Transactions as if the Transactions had occurred on such date.
Such pro forma consolidated balance sheet (i) has been prepared in good faith
based on the same assumptions used to prepare the pro forma financial statements
included in the Offering Memorandum (which assumptions are believed by the U.S.
Borrower to have been reasonable at the time made and to be reasonable as of the
Closing Date (it being understood that such assumptions are based on good faith
estimates with respect to certain items and that the actual amounts of such
items on the Closing Date is subject to variation)), (ii) subject to the
assumptions and qualifications described in the Offering Memorandum, accurately
reflects all adjustments necessary to give effect to the Transactions and (iii)
subject to the assumptions and qualifications described in the Offering
Memorandum presents fairly, in all material respects, the pro forma financial
position of the U.S. Borrower and the Subsidiaries as of September 30, 2002, as

         SECTION 4.06. No Material Adverse Change or Material Adverse Effect.
Since December 31, 2002, there has been no material adverse change (or
occurrence that is reasonably likely to have a material adverse change) in the
business, operations, properties, assets or financial condition of the U.S.
Borrower and the Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, it being understood that prior
to the Closing Date, the assets and liabilities of the U.S. Borrower and the
Subsidiaries constituted all the assets and liabilities of TRW Automotive Inc.
and subsidiaries as reflected in the combined financial statements described in
Section 3.05(a).

         SECTION 4.07. Title to Properties; Possession Under Leases. (a) Each of
Holdings, Intermediate Holdings, the U.S. Borrower and the Subsidiaries has good
and marketable title to, or valid leasehold interests in, or easements or other
limited property interests in, all its properties and assets (including all
Mortgaged Properties), except for minor defects in title that do not interfere
with its ability to conduct its business as currently conducted or to utilize
such properties and assets for their intended purposes and except where the
failure to have such title could not reasonably be expected to have,
individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect. All such properties
and assets are free and clear of Liens, other than Liens expressly permitted by
Section 6.02 or arising by operation of law.

         (b) Each of Holdings, Intermediate Holdings, the U.S. Borrower and the
Subsidiaries has complied with all obligations under all leases to which it is a
party, except where the failure to comply would not have a Material Adverse
Effect, and all such leases are in full force and effect, except leases in
respect of which the failure to be in full force and effect could not reasonably
be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Each of Holdings, Intermediate
Holdings, the U.S. Borrower and each of the Subsidiaries enjoys peaceful and
undisturbed possession under all such leases, other than leases in respect of
which the failure to enjoy peaceful and undisturbed possession could not
reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material
Adverse Effect.

Subsidiaries owns or possesses, or could obtain ownership or possession of, on
terms not materially adverse to it, all patents, trademarks, service marks,
trade names, copyrights, licenses and rights with respect thereto necessary for
the present conduct of its business, without any known conflict with the rights
of others, and free from any burdensome restrictions, except

                                                                              87

Holdings, Intermediate Holdings, the U.S. Borrower and the Subsidiaries has
received any notice of any pending or contemplated condemnation proceeding
affecting any of the Mortgaged Properties or any sale or disposition thereof in
lieu of condemnation that remains unresolved as of the Closing Date or the
Restatement Effective Date.

         (e) None of Holdings, Intermediate Holdings, the U.S. Borrower and the
Subsidiaries is obligated on the Closing Date or the Restatement Effective Date

         SECTION 4.08. Subsidiaries. (a) As of the Closing Date and the
Restatement Effective Date, and after giving effect to the Transactions,
Holdings will have no subsidiaries other than Intermediate Holdings, the U.S.
Borrower and the Subsidiaries.

jurisdiction of incorporation of each Subsidiary and, as to each such
Subsidiary, the percentage of each class of Equity Interests owned by the U.S.
Borrower or by any such Subsidiary.

         (c) As of the Closing Date and the Restatement Effective Date, there
are no outstanding subscriptions, options, warrants, calls, rights or other
agreements or commitments (other than stock options granted to employees or
directors and directors' qualifying shares) of any nature relating to any Equity
Interests of Holdings, Intermediate Holdings, the U.S. Borrower or any of the
Subsidiaries, except under the Loan Documents, rights of employees to purchase
Equity Interests of Holdings in connection with the Transactions or as set forth
on Schedule 3.08(c).

         SECTION 4.09. Litigation; Compliance with Laws. (a) Except as set forth
on Schedule 3.09, there are no actions, suits or proceedings at law or in equity
or by or before any Governmental Authority or in arbitration now pending or, to
the knowledge of Holdings or the U.S. Borrower, threatened in writing against or
affecting Holdings, Intermediate Holdings, the U.S. Borrower or any of the
Subsidiaries or any business, property or rights of any such person (i) that
involve any Loan Document or the Transactions or (ii) as to which an adverse
determination is reasonably probable and which could reasonably be expected to
have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect or materially
adversely affect the Transactions.

         (b) None of Holdings, Intermediate Holdings, the U.S. Borrower, the
Subsidiaries and their respective properties or assets is in violation of (nor
will the continued operation of their material properties and assets as
currently conducted violate) any law, rule or regulation (including any zoning,
building, Environmental Law, ordinance, code or approval or any building permit)
or any restriction of record or agreement affecting any Mortgaged Property, or
is in default with respect to any judgment, writ, injunction or decree of any
Governmental

                                                                              88

         SECTION 4.12. Use of Proceeds. The Borrowers will use the proceeds of

Subsidiary has set aside on its books adequate reserves. Each of Holdings,
Intermediate Holdings, the U.S. Borrower and the Subsidiaries has paid in full
or made adequate provision (in accordance with GAAP) for the payment of all
Taxes due with respect to all periods ending on or before the Restatement
Effective Date, which Taxes, if not paid or adequately provided for, could

clauses (b) and (c), as set forth on Schedule 3.13, as of the Closing Date and
the Restatement Effective Date, with respect to each of Holdings, Intermediate
Holdings, the U.S. Borrower and the Subsidiaries, (a) no material claims are

         SECTION 4.14. No Material Misstatements. (a) All written information
(other than the Projections, estimates and information of a general economic
nature) (the "Information") concerning Holdings, Intermediate Holdings, the U.S.
Borrower, the Subsidiaries, the Transactions and any other transactions
contemplated hereby included in the Information Memorandum or otherwise prepared
by or on behalf of the foregoing or their representatives and made available to
any Lenders or the Administrative Agent in connection with the Transactions or
the other transactions contemplated hereby, when taken as a whole, were true and
correct in all material respects as of the date thereof, as of the date such
Information was furnished to the Initial Lenders and as of the Closing Date and
did not contain any untrue statement of a material fact as of any such date or
omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements
contained therein not materially misleading in light of the circumstances under
which such statements were made.

         (b) The Projections and estimates prepared by or on behalf of the U.S.
Borrower or any of its representatives and that have been made available to any
Lenders or the Administrative Agent in connection with the Transactions or the
other transactions contemplated hereby (i) have been prepared in good faith
based upon assumptions believed by the U.S. Borrower to be reasonable as of the
date thereof, as of the date such Projections and estimates were furnished to
the Initial Lenders and as of the Closing Date, and (ii) as of the Restatement
Effective Date, have not been modified in any material respect by the U.S.
Borrower.

         SECTION 4.15. Employee Benefit Plans. (a) Each of the Borrowers,
Holdings, Intermediate Holdings, the Subsidiaries and the ERISA Affiliates is in
compliance with the applicable provisions of ERISA and the provisions of the
Code relating to Plans and the regulations and published interpretations
thereunder and any similar applicable non-U.S. law, except for such
noncompliance that could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect. No Reportable Event has occurred during the past five years as to which
the Borrowers, Holdings, Intermediate Holdings, any Subsidiary or any ERISA
Affiliate was required to file a report with the PBGC, other than reports that
have been filed and reports the failure of which to file could not reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. As of the Closing Date and the
Restatement Effective Date, the excess of the present value of all benefit
liabilities under each Plan of the Borrowers, Holdings, Intermediate Holdings,
the Subsidiaries and the ERISA Affiliates (based on those assumptions used to
fund such Plan), as of the last annual valuation date applicable thereto for
which a valuation is available, over the value of the assets of such Plan could
not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and the excess of
the present value of all benefit liabilities of all underfunded Plans (based on
those assumptions used to fund each such Plan) as of the last annual valuation
dates applicable thereto for which valuations are available, over the value of
the assets of all such underfunded Plans could not reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect. None of the Borrowers, Holdings, Intermediate
Holdings, the

                                                                              90

Subsidiaries and the ERISA Affiliates has incurred or could reasonably be
expected to incur any Withdrawal Liability that could reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect. None of the Borrowers, Holdings, Intermediate
Holdings, the Subsidiaries and the ERISA Affiliates has received any written
notification that any Multiemployer Plan is in reorganization or has been
terminated within the meaning of Title IV of ERISA, or has knowledge that any
Multiemployer Plan is reasonably expected to be in reorganization or to be
terminated, where such reorganization or termination has had or could reasonably
be expected to have, through increases in the contributions required to be made
to such Plan or otherwise, a Material Adverse Effect.

         (b) Each of Holdings, Intermediate Holdings, the U.S. Borrower and the
Subsidiaries is in compliance (i) with all applicable provisions of law and all
applicable regulations and published interpretations thereunder with respect to
any employee pension benefit plan or other employee benefit plan governed by the
laws of a jurisdiction other than the United States and (ii) with the terms of
any such plan, except, in each case, for such noncompliance that could not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

         SECTION 4.16. Environmental Matters. Except for the matters that could
not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material
Adverse Effect, neither the U.S. Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries (i) has

with any permit, license or other approval required under any Environmental Law,
(ii) is subject to, or responsible for, any Environmental Liability, (iii) has
received notice of any claim with respect to any Environmental Liability or (iv)
knows of any facts or circumstances that would reasonably be expected to result
in any Environmental Liability.

         SECTION 4.17. Security Documents. (a) The U.S. Collateral Agreement is
effective to create in favor of the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the
Secured Parties) a legal, valid and enforceable security interest in the
Collateral described therein and proceeds thereof. In the case of the Pledged
Collateral described in the U.S. Collateral Agreement, when certificates or
promissory notes, as applicable, representing such Pledged Collateral are
delivered to the Collateral Agent, and in the case of the other Collateral
described in the U.S. Collateral Agreement (other than the Intellectual Property
(as defined in the U.S. Collateral Agreement)), when financing statements and
other filings specified on Schedule 3 of the U.S. Perfection Certificate in
appropriate form are filed in the offices specified on Schedule 5 of the U.S.
Perfection Certificate, the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Secured
Parties) shall have a fully perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all
right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in such Collateral and, subject to
Section 9-315 of the New York Uniform Commercial Code, the proceeds thereof, as
security for the Obligations to the extent perfection can be obtained by filing
Uniform Commercial Code financing statements, in each case prior and superior in
right to any other person (except, in the case of Collateral other than Pledged
Collateral, Liens expressly permitted by Section 6.02(a) and Liens having
priority by operation of law).

         (b) When the U.S. Collateral Agreement or a summary thereof is properly
filed in the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States
Copyright Office, and, with respect to Collateral in which a security interest
cannot be perfected by such filings, upon the proper filing of the financing
statements referred to in paragraph (a) above, the Collateral Agent (for the
benefit of the Secured Parties) shall have a fully perfected Lien on, and
security interest in, all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties
thereunder in the Intellectual Property, in each case prior and superior in
right to any other Person (it being understood that subsequent

                                                                              91

recordings in the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United
States Copyright Office may be necessary to perfect a lien on registered
trademarks and patents, trademark and patent applications and registered
copyrights acquired by the grantors after the Closing Date).

         (c) Each Foreign Pledge Agreement and each Foreign Security Agreement
is effective to create in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the
Secured Parties, a legal, valid and enforceable security interest in the
Collateral described therein and proceeds thereof. In the case of the Pledged
Collateral described in a Foreign Pledge Agreement, when certificates or
promissory notes, as applicable, representing such Pledged Collateral are
delivered to the Collateral Agent, and, in the case of the Collateral described
in a Foreign Security Agreement, when filings are made in the appropriate
offices in each relevant jurisdiction and the other actions, if any, specified
on such Schedule are taken, the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Secured
Parties) shall have a fully perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all
right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in such Collateral and the
proceeds thereof, as security for the Obligations, in each case prior and
superior in right to any other person (except, in the case of Collateral other
than Pledged Collateral, Liens expressly permitted by Section 6.02(a) and Liens
having priority by operation of law).

         (d) The Mortgages entered into after the Closing Date pursuant to
Section 5.10 shall be effective to create in favor of the Collateral Agent (for
the benefit of the Secured Parties) a legal, valid and enforceable Lien on all
of the Loan Parties' right, title and interest in and to the Mortgaged Property
thereunder and the proceeds thereof, and when such Mortgages are filed or
recorded in the proper real estate filing or recording offices, the Collateral
Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) shall have a fully perfected Lien
on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties
in such Mortgaged Property and, to the extent applicable, subject to Section
9-315 of the Uniform Commercial Code, the proceeds thereof, in each case prior
and superior in right to any other Person, other than with respect to the rights
of a Person pursuant to Liens expressly permitted by Section 6.02(a) and Liens
having priority by operation of law.

         SECTION 4.18. Location of Real Property and Leased Premises. (a)
Schedule 2B to the U.S. Perfection Certificate and each Foreign Perfection
Certificate lists completely and correctly as of the Closing Date all material
real property owned by Holdings, Intermediate Holdings, the U.S. Borrower and
the Subsidiary Loan Parties and the addresses thereof. As of the Closing Date,
Holdings, Intermediate Holdings, the U.S. Borrower and the Subsidiaries own in
fee all the real property set forth as being owned by them on such Schedules.

         (b) Schedule 2B to the U.S. Perfection Certificate lists completely and
correctly as of the Closing Date all material real property leased by Holdings,
Intermediate Holdings, the U.S. Borrower and the Domestic Subsidiary Loan
Parties and the addresses thereof. As of the Closing Date, Holdings,
Intermediate Holdings, the U.S. Borrower and the Domestic Subsidiary Loan
Parties have valid leases in all the real property set forth as being leased by
them on such Schedules.

         SECTION 4.19. Solvency. (a) Immediately after giving effect to the
Transactions (i) the fair value of the assets of each Borrower (individually)
and the U.S. Borrower and the Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, at a fair
valuation, will exceed the debts and liabilities, direct, subordinated,
contingent or otherwise, of each Borrower (individually) and

                                                                              92

the U.S. Borrower and the Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, respectively;
(ii) the present fair saleable value of the property of each Borrower
(individually) and the U.S. Borrower and the Subsidiaries on a consolidated
basis will be greater than the amount that will be required to pay the probable
liability of each Borrower (individually) and the U.S. Borrower and the
Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, respectively, on their debts and other
liabilities, direct, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such debts and
other liabilities become absolute and matured; (iii) each Borrower
(individually) and the U.S. Borrower and the Subsidiaries on a consolidated
basis will be able to pay their debts and liabilities, direct, subordinated,
contingent or otherwise, as such debts and liabilities become absolute and
matured; and (iv) each Borrower (individually) and the U.S. Borrower and the
Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis will not have unreasonably small capital
with which to conduct the businesses in which they are engaged as such
businesses are now conducted and are proposed to be conducted following the
Closing Date.

         (b) None of Holdings or the Borrowers intend to, and does not believe
that it or any of its subsidiaries will, incur debts beyond its ability to pay
such debts as they mature, taking into account the timing and amounts of cash to
be received by it or any such subsidiary and the timing and amounts of cash to
be payable on or in respect of its Indebtedness or the Indebtedness of any such
subsidiary.

         SECTION 4.20. Labor Matters. There are no strikes pending or threatened
against Holdings, Intermediate Holdings, the U.S. Borrower or any of the
Subsidiaries that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The hours worked and payments made
to employees of Holdings, Intermediate Holdings, the U.S. Borrower and the
Subsidiaries have not been in violation in any material respect of the Fair
Labor Standards Act or any other applicable law dealing with such matters. All
material payments due from Holdings, Intermediate Holdings, the U.S. Borrower or
any of the Subsidiaries or for which any claim may be made against Holdings,
Intermediate Holdings, the U.S. Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries, on account
of wages and employee health and welfare insurance and other benefits have been
paid or accrued as a liability on the books of Holdings, Intermediate Holdings,
the U.S. Borrower or such Subsidiary to the extent required by GAAP. Except as
set forth on Schedule 3.20, consummation of the Transactions will not give rise
to a right of termination or right of renegotiation on the part of any union
under any collective bargaining agreement to which Holdings, Intermediate
Holdings, the U.S. Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries (or any predecessor) is a
party or by which Holdings, Intermediate Holdings, the U.S. Borrower or any of
the Subsidiaries (or any predecessor) is bound, other than collective bargaining
agreements that, individually or in the aggregate, are not material to Holdings,
Intermediate Holdings, the U.S. Borrower and the Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

         SECTION 4.21. Insurance. Schedule 3.21 sets forth a true, complete and
correct description of all material insurance maintained by or on behalf of
Holdings, Intermediate Holdings, the U.S. Borrower or the Subsidiaries as of the

U.S. Borrower believes that the insurance maintained by or on behalf of
Holdings, Intermediate Holdings, the U.S. Borrower and the Subsidiaries is
adequate.

                                    ARTICLE V

                              Conditions of Lending

         The obligations of (a) the Lenders (including the Swingline Lenders) to

    Borrowing, a Borrowing Request as required by Section 2.03 (or a Borrowing
    Request shall have been deemed given in accordance with the last paragraph
    of Section 2.03) or, in the case of the issuance of a Letter of Credit, the
    applicable Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent shall have received a
    notice requesting the issuance of such Letter of Credit as required by

         a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Agreement with respect to such Foreign
         Subsidiary Borrower duly executed by all parties thereto; and

              (ii) the Administrative Agent shall have received such documents
         (including legal opinions) and certificates as the Administrative Agent

                              Affirmative Covenants

         Each of Holdings, Intermediate Holdings and the Borrowers covenants and

on each Loan, all Fees and all other expenses or amounts payable under any Loan
Document shall have been paid in full and all Letters of Credit have been
canceled or have expired and all amounts drawn thereunder have been reimbursed

be done all things necessary to preserve, renew and keep in full force and

Section 6.05, and except for the liquidation or dissolution of Subsidiaries if
the assets of such Subsidiaries to the extent they exceed estimated liabilities
are acquired by a Borrower or a Wholly Owned Subsidiary of a Borrower in such
liquidation or dissolution, provided that Subsidiaries that are Loan Parties may
not be liquidated into Subsidiaries that are not Loan Parties and domestic
Subsidiaries may not be liquidated into Foreign Subsidiaries.

         (b) Do or cause to be done all things necessary to (i) obtain,
preserve, renew, extend and keep in full force and effect the permits,

decrees and orders of any Governmental Authority, whether now in effect or
hereafter enacted and (iii) at all times maintain and preserve all property
necessary to the normal conduct of its business and keep such property in good
repair, working order and condition and from time to time make, or cause to be

connection therewith, if any, may be properly conducted at all times (in each
case except as expressly permitted by this Agreement).

         SECTION 6.02. Insurance. (a) Keep its insurable properties insured at
all times by financially sound and reputable insurers in such amounts as shall
be customary for similar businesses and maintain such other reasonable insurance
(including, to the extent consistent with past practices, self-insurance), of
such types, to such extent and against such risks, as is customary with
companies in the same or similar businesses and maintain such other insurance as
may be required by law or any other Loan Document.

         (b) Cause all such property and casualty insurance policies with
respect to the Mortgaged Properties to be endorsed or otherwise amended to
include a "standard" or "New York" lender's loss payable endorsement, in form
and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the
Collateral Agent, which endorsement shall provide that, from and after the
Closing Date, if the insurance carrier shall have received written notice from
the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent of the occurrence of an Event
of Default, the insurance carrier shall pay all proceeds otherwise payable to
the U.S. Borrower or the Loan Parties under such policies directly to the
Collateral Agent; cause all such policies to provide that neither the U.S.
Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent nor any other party
shall be a coinsurer thereunder and to contain a "Replacement Cost Endorsement",
without any deduction for depreciation, and such other provisions as the
Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent may reasonably (in light of a
Default or a material development in respect of the insured Mortgaged Property)
require from time to time to protect their interests; deliver original or
certified copies of all such policies or a certificate of an insurance broker to
the Collateral Agent; cause each such policy to provide that it shall not be
canceled, modified or not renewed upon less than 30 days' prior written notice
thereof by the insurer to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent;
deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent,

                                                                              96

insurance, a copy of a renewal or replacement policy (or other evidence of
renewal of a policy previously delivered to the Administrative Agent and the
Collateral Agent), or insurance certificate with respect thereto, together with
evidence satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent of
payment of the premium therefor.

         (c) If at any time the area in which the Premises (as defined in the
Mortgages) are located is designated a "flood hazard area" in any Flood
Insurance Rate Map published by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (or any
successor agency), obtain flood insurance in such reasonable total amount as the
Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent may from time to time reasonably
require, and otherwise comply with the National Flood Insurance Program as set
forth in the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as it may be amended from
time to time.

         (d) With respect to each Mortgaged Property, carry and maintain
comprehensive general liability insurance including the "broad form CGL
endorsement" and coverage on an occurrence basis against claims made for
personal injury (including bodily injury, death and property damage) and
umbrella liability insurance against any and all claims, in each case in amounts
and against such risks as are customarily maintained by companies engaged in the
same or similar industry operating in the same or similar locations naming the
Collateral Agent as an additional insured, on forms reasonably satisfactory to
the Collateral Agent.

         (e) Notify the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent promptly
whenever any separate insurance concurrent in form or contributing in the event
of loss with that required to be maintained under this Section 5.02 is taken out
by Holdings, Intermediate Holdings, the U.S. Borrower or any of the
Subsidiaries; and promptly deliver to the Administrative Agent and the
Collateral Agent a duplicate original copy of such policy or policies, or an
insurance certificate with respect thereto.

         (f) In connection with the covenants set forth in this Section 5.02, it
is understood and agreed that:

         (i) none of the Agents, the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and their
    respective agents or employees shall be liable for any loss or damage
    insured by the insurance policies required to be maintained under this
    Section 5.02, it being understood that (A) the U.S. Borrower and the other
    Loan Parties shall look solely to their insurance companies or any other
    parties other than the aforesaid parties for the recovery of such loss or
    damage and (B) such insurance companies shall have no rights of subrogation
    against the Agents, the Lenders, any Issuing Bank or their agents or
    employees. If, however, the insurance policies do not provide waiver of
    subrogation rights against such parties, as required above, then each of
    Holdings, Intermediate Holdings and the U.S. Borrower hereby agree, to the
    extent permitted by law, to waive, and to cause each of the Subsidiaries to
    waive, its right of recovery, if any, against the Agents, the Lenders, any
    Issuing Bank and their agents and employees; and

         (ii) the designation of any form, type or amount of insurance coverage
    by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent under this Section 5.02
    shall in no event be

                                                                              97

    deemed a representation, warranty or advice by the Administrative Agent, the
    Collateral Agent or the Lenders that such insurance is adequate for the
    purposes of the business of Holdings, Intermediate Holdings, the U.S.
    Borrower and the Subsidiaries or the protection of their properties.

         SECTION 6.03. Taxes. Pay and discharge promptly when due all material
Taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies imposed upon it or upon
its income or profits or in respect of its property, before the same shall
become delinquent or in default, as well as all lawful claims for labor,
materials and supplies or otherwise that, if unpaid, might give rise to a Lien
upon such properties or any part thereof; provided, however, that such payment
and discharge shall not be required with respect to any such Tax, assessment,
charge, levy or claim so long as the validity or amount thereof shall be
contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings, and Holdings, Intermediate
Holdings, the U.S. Borrower or the affected Subsidiary, as applicable, shall
have set aside on its books reserves in accordance with GAAP with respect
thereto and such contest effectively suspends collection of the contested
obligation and the enforcement of any Lien securing such obligation.

         SECTION 6.04. Financial Statements, Reports, etc. Furnish to the
Administrative Agent (which will furnish such information to the Lenders):

         (a) within 90 days (or such shorter period as the SEC shall specify for

    independent public accountants of recognized national standing reasonably

    effect that such consolidated financial statements fairly present, in all
    material respects, the financial position and results of operations of the
    U.S. Borrower and the Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis in accordance
    with GAAP (it being understood that the delivery by the U.S. Borrower of
    Annual Reports on Form 10-K of the U.S. Borrower and its consolidated
    Subsidiaries shall satisfy the requirements of this Section 5.04(a) to the
    extent such Annual Reports include the information specified herein,

    audit adjustments and the absence of footnotes and except that purchase
    accounting may be reflected on a preliminary basis in financial statements
    delivered for the fiscal quarters ending in 2003) (it being understood that

    from those as in effect on the Closing Date, the consolidated financial

         (b) If any asset (including any real property or improvements thereto
    or any interest therein) that has an individual fair market value in an
    amount having a Dollar Equivalent greater than $10,000,000 is acquired by
    the U.S. Borrower or any other Loan Party after the Closing Date or owned by
    an entity at the time it becomes a Subsidiary Loan Party (in each case other
    than assets constituting Collateral under a Security Document that become
    subject to the Lien of such Security Document upon acquisition thereof),
    cause such asset to be subjected to a Lien securing the Obligations and
    take, and cause the Subsidiary Loan Parties to take, such actions as shall
    be necessary or reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent to grant
    and perfect such Liens, including actions described in paragraph (a) of this
    Section, all at the expense of the Loan Parties, subject to paragraph (h)

    Domestic Subsidiary Loan Parties to grant to the Collateral Agent security
    interests and mortgages in such real property of the U.S. Borrower or any
    such Domestic Subsidiary Loan Parties as are not covered by the original
    U.S. Mortgages, to the extent acquired after the Closing Date and having a
    value at the time of acquisition in excess of $10,000,000 pursuant to
    documentation substantially in the form of the U.S. Mortgages delivered to
    the Collateral Agent on the Closing Date or in such other form as is
    reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent (each, an "Additional
    Mortgage") and constituting valid and enforceable perfected Liens superior
    to and prior to the rights of all third persons subject to no other Liens
    except as are expressly permitted by Section 6.02 or arising by operation of
    law, at the time of perfection thereof, record or file, and cause each such
    Subsidiary to record or file, the Additional Mortgage or instruments related

    formed or acquired after the Closing Date if such subsidiary is a Domestic
    Subsidiary Loan Party, within five Business Days after the date such
    subsidiary is formed or acquired, notify the Administrative Agent and the
    Lenders thereof and, within 20 Business Days after the date such subsidiary
    is formed or acquired, cause the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement to be
    satisfied with respect to such subsidiary and with respect to any Equity
    Interest in or Indebtedness of such subsidiary owned by or on behalf of any
    Loan Party.

         (e) In the case of the U.S. Borrower, (i) furnish to the Collateral
    Agent prompt written notice of any change (A) in any Loan Party's corporate
    name, (B) in any Loan Party's

                                                                             102

    identity or corporate structure or (C) in any Loan Party's organizational
    identification number; provided that the U.S. Borrower shall not effect or
    permit any such change unless all filings have been made, or will have been
    made within any statutory period, under the Uniform Commercial Code or
    otherwise that are required in order for the Collateral Agent to continue at
    all times following such change to have a valid, legal and perfected
    security interest in all the Collateral for the benefit of the Secured
    Parties and (ii) promptly notify the Administrative Agent if any material
    portion of the Collateral is damaged or destroyed.

         (f) Prior to any Foreign Subsidiary becoming a Foreign Subsidiary Loan
    Party, cause (i) the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement to be satisfied

    pursuant to a Foreign Pledge Agreement and (iii) after giving effect to
    paragraph (h) below, at least a substantial portion of the assets (as
    reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent) of such Foreign
    Subsidiary to be subject to a valid first lien in favor of the Collateral
    Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties.

         (g) [Intentionally Omitted]

         (h) The Collateral and Guarantee Requirement and the other provisions
    of this Section 5.10 need not be satisfied with respect to (i) any real
    property held by Holdings, Intermediate Holdings, the U.S. Borrower or any
    Subsidiary as a lessee under a lease, (ii) any Equity Interests acquired
    after the Closing Date pursuant to Section 6.04(j) if, and to the extent
    that, and for so long as (A) doing so would violate applicable law or a
    contractual obligation binding on such Equity Interests and (B) such law or
    obligation existed at the time of the acquisition thereof and was not
    created or made binding on such Equity Interests in contemplation of or in
    connection with the acquisition of such Subsidiary (provided that the
    foregoing clause (B) shall not apply in the case of a joint venture,
    including a joint venture that is a Subsidiary), (iii) any assets acquired
    after the Closing Date, to the extent that, and for so long as, taking such
    actions would violate a contractual obligation binding on such assets that
    existed at the time of the acquisition thereof and was not created or made
    binding on such assets in contemplation or in connection with the
    acquisition of such assets (except in the case of assets acquired with
    Indebtedness permitted pursuant to Section 6.01(i) that is secured by a Lien
    permitted pursuant to Section 6.02(i)) or (iv) any Subsidiary or asset with
    respect to which the Collateral Agent determines that the cost of the
    satisfaction of the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement or the provisions
    of this Section 5.10 with respect thereto exceeds the value of the security
    afforded thereby; provided that upon the reasonable request of the
    Collateral Agent, the U.S. Borrower shall, and shall cause any applicable
    Subsidiary to, use commercially reasonable efforts to have waived or
    eliminated any contractual obligation of the types described in clauses (ii)
    and (iii) above, other than those set forth in joint venture agreements to
    which the U.S. Borrower or a Subsidiary is party.

Borrower, cause its fiscal year to end on December 31.

effect, one or more Swap Agreements with one or more of the Lenders (or
Affiliates thereof), the effect of which is that at least 50% of Consolidated
Total Debt will bear interest at a fixed rate or the interest cost in respect of
which will be fixed, in each case on terms and conditions reasonably acceptable,
taking into account current market conditions, to the Administrative Agent.

         SECTION 6.13. Proceeds of Certain Dispositions. If, as a result of the
receipt of any cash proceeds by the U.S. Borrower or any Subsidiary in
connection with any sale, transfer, lease or other disposition of any asset,
including any Equity Interest, the U.S. Borrower would be required by the terms
of the Senior Note Indentures or Senior Subordinated Note Indentures to make an
offer to purchase any Senior Notes or Senior Subordinated Notes, as applicable,
then, in the case of the U.S. Borrower or a Subsidiary, prior to the first day
on which the U.S. Borrower would be required to commence such an offer to
purchase, (i) prepay Loans in accordance with Section 2.11 or (ii) acquire
assets, Equity Interests or other securities in a manner that is permitted by
Section 6.04 or Section 6.05, in each case in a manner that will eliminate any
such requirement to make such an offer to purchase.

    obligations of the parties thereto, enforceable in accordance with their
    terms; or

         (m) failure of all amounts in respect of the Management Equity Loan to
    be repaid in full in cash on or prior to the 30th day after the Closing
    Date;

then, and in every such event (other than an event with respect to a Borrower
described in paragraph (h) or (i) above), and at any time thereafter during the
continuance of such event, the

                                                                             123

Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, shall, by notice
to the Borrowers, take any or all of the following actions, at the same or
different times: (i) terminate forthwith the Commitments, (ii) declare the Loans
then outstanding to be forthwith due and payable in whole or in part, whereupon
the principal of the Loans so declared to be due and payable, together with
accrued interest thereon and any unpaid accrued Fees and all other liabilities
of the Borrowers accrued hereunder and under any other Loan Document, shall
become forthwith due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or any
other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the
Borrowers, anything contained herein or in any other Loan Document to the
contrary notwithstanding and (iii) demand cash collateral pursuant to Section
2.05(j); and in any event with respect to a Borrower described in paragraph (h)
or (i) above, the Commitments shall automatically terminate, the principal of
the Loans then outstanding, together with accrued interest thereon and any
unpaid accrued Fees and all other liabilities of the Borrowers accrued hereunder
and under any other Loan Document, shall automatically become due and payable
and the Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have made a demand for cash
collateral to the full extent permitted under Section 2.05(j), without
presentment, demand, protest or any other notice of any kind, all of which are
hereby expressly waived by the Borrowers, anything contained herein or in any
other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding.

         SECTION 8.02. Exclusion of Immaterial Subsidiaries. Solely for the
purposes of determining whether a Default has occurred under clause (h) or (i)
of Section 7.01, any reference in any such clause to any Subsidiary shall be
deemed not to include any Subsidiary affected by any event or circumstance
referred to in any such clause that did not, as of the last day of the fiscal
quarter of the U.S. Borrower most recently ended, have assets with a value in
excess of 5.0% of the Consolidated Total Assets or 5.0% of total revenues of the
U.S. Borrower and the Subsidiaries as of such date, provided that if it is
necessary to exclude more than one Subsidiary from clause (h) or (i) of Section
7.01 pursuant to this Section 7.02 in order to avoid an Event of Default
thereunder, all excluded Subsidiaries shall be considered to be a single
consolidated Subsidiary for purposes of determining whether the condition
specified above is satisfied.

         SECTION 8.03. U.S. Borrower's Right to Cure. (a) Financial Performance
Covenants. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 7.01,
in the event that the U.S. Borrower fails to comply with the requirements of any
Financial Performance Covenant, until the expiration of the 10th day subsequent
to the date the certificate calculating such Financial Performance Covenant is
required to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.04(c), Holdings shall have the
right to issue Permitted Cure Securities for cash or otherwise receive cash
contributions to the capital of Holdings, and, in each case, to contribute any
such cash to the capital of Intermediate Holdings (which shall contribute all
such cash to the capital of the U.S. Borrower) (collectively, the "Cure Right"),
and upon the receipt by U.S. Borrower of such cash (the "Cure Amount") pursuant
to the exercise by Holdings of such Cure Right such Financial Performance
Covenant shall be recalculated giving effect to the following pro forma
adjustments:

         (i) EBITDA shall be increased, solely for the purpose of measuring the
    Financial Performance Covenants and not for any other purpose under this
    Agreement, by an amount equal to the Cure Amount; and

                                                                             124

         (ii) If, after giving effect to the foregoing recalculations, the U.S.
    Borrower shall then be in compliance with the requirements of all Financial
    Performance Covenants, the U.S. Borrower shall be deemed to have satisfied
    the requirements of the Financial Performance Covenants as of the relevant
    date of determination with the same effect as though there had been no
    failure to comply therewith at such date, and the applicable breach or
    default of the Financial Performance Covenants that had occurred shall be
    deemed cured for this purposes of the Agreement.

         (b) Limitation on Exercise of Cure Right. Notwithstanding anything
    herein to the contrary, (a) in each four-fiscal-quarter period there shall
    be at least one fiscal quarter in which the Cure Right is not exercised, (b)
    in each eight-fiscal-quarter period, there shall be a period of at least
    four consecutive fiscal quarters during which the Cure Right is not
    exercised and (c) in each 12-month period, the sum of all Cure Amounts
    contributed to the U.S. Borrower pursuant to this Section 7.03 shall not
    exceed $200,000,000.

                                   ARTICLE IX

                                   The Agents

the Lenders, each Ancillary Lender and each Issuing Bank, without hereby
limiting any implied authority, (a) to receive on behalf of the Lenders and such
Issuing Bank all payments of principal of and interest on the Loans, all
payments in respect of L/C Disbursements and all other amounts due to the
Lenders and such Issuing Bank hereunder, and promptly to distribute to each
Lender or such Issuing Bank its proper share of each payment so received; (b) to
give notice on behalf of each of the Lenders and each of the Ancillary Lenders
of any Event of Default specified in this Agreement of which the Administrative

and each Ancillary Lender copies of all notices, financial statements and other

Agents are hereby expressly authorized to execute any and all documents
(including releases) with respect to the Collateral and the rights of the
Secured Parties with respect thereto, as contemplated by and in accordance with
the provisions of this Agreement and the Security Documents. In the event that
any party other than the Lenders and the Agents shall participate in all or any
portion of the Collateral pursuant to the Security Documents, all rights and
remedies in respect of such Collateral shall be controlled by the Collateral
Agent.

                                                                             125

         (b) Neither the Agents nor any of their respective directors, officers,
    employees or agents shall be liable as such for any action taken or omitted
    by any of them except for its or his own gross negligence or wilful
    misconduct, or be responsible for any statement, warranty or representation
    herein or the contents of any document delivered in connection herewith, or
    be required to ascertain or to make any inquiry concerning the performance
    or observance by the Borrowers or any other Loan Party of any of the terms,
    conditions, covenants or agreements contained in any Loan Document. The
    Agents shall not be responsible to the Lenders or any Ancillary Lender for
    the due execution, genuineness, validity, enforceability or effectiveness of
    this Agreement or any other Loan Documents or other instruments or
    agreements. The Agents shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or
    refraining from acting, in accordance with written instructions signed by
    the Required Lenders and, except as otherwise specifically provided herein,
    such instructions and any action or inaction pursuant thereto shall be
    binding on all the Lenders and all the Ancillary Lenders. Each Agent shall,
    in the absence of knowledge to the contrary, be entitled to rely on any
    instrument or document believed by it in good faith to be genuine and
    correct and to have been signed or sent by the proper person or persons.
    Neither the Agents nor any of their respective directors, officers,
    employees or agents shall have any responsibility to any Borrower or any
    other Loan Party or any other party hereto on account of the failure, delay
    in performance or breach by, or as a result of information provided by, any
    Lender, Ancillary Lender or Issuing Bank of any of its obligations hereunder
    or to any Lender, Ancillary Lender or Issuing Bank on account of the failure
    of or delay in performance or breach by any other Lender, Ancillary Lender
    or Issuing Bank or any Borrower or any other Loan Party of any of their
    respective obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document or in
    connection herewith or therewith. Each Agent may execute any and all duties
    hereunder by or through agents or employees and shall be entitled to rely
    upon the advice of legal counsel selected by it with respect to all matters
    arising hereunder and shall not be liable for any action taken or suffered
    in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel.

         SECTION 9.02. Nature of Duties. The Lenders and the Ancillary Lenders
hereby acknowledge that no Agent shall be under any duty to take any
discretionary action permitted to be taken by it pursuant to the provisions of
this Agreement unless it shall be requested in writing to do so by the Required
Lenders. The Lenders and the Ancillary Lenders further acknowledge and agree
that so long as an Agent shall make any determination to be made by it hereunder
or under any other Loan Document in good faith, such Agent shall have no
liability in respect of such determination to any person. Notwithstanding any
provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent
shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth
herein, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants,
functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read
into the Loan Documents or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent.
Each Lender recognizes and agrees that the Co-Syndication Agents and the
Documentation Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities under this
Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any fiduciary relationship with any
Lender or Ancillary Lenders, and shall have no functions, responsibilities,
duties, obligations or liabilities for acting as the Co-Syndication Agents or as
a Documentation Agent hereunder.

         SECTION 9.03. Resignation by the Agents. Subject to the appointment and
acceptance of a successor Agent as provided below, any Agent may resign at any
time by notifying the Lenders and the U.S. Borrower. Upon any such resignation,
the Required Lenders

                                                                             126

shall have the right to appoint a successor with the consent of the U.S.
Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If no successor shall
have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and approved by the U.S. Borrower
and shall have accepted such appointment within 45 days after the retiring Agent
gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the
Lenders and the Ancillary Lenders with the consent of the U.S. Borrower (not to
be unreasonably withheld or delayed), appoint a successor Agent which shall be a
bank with an office in New York, New York and an office in London, England (or a
bank having an Affiliate with such an office) having a combined capital and
surplus having a Dollar Equivalent that is not less than $500,000,000 or an
Affiliate of any such bank. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent
hereunder by a successor bank, such successor shall succeed to and become vested
with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent and the
retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder.
After the Agent's resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and
Section 9.05 shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions
taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as Agent.

         SECTION 9.04. Each Agent in its Individual Capacity. With respect to
the Loans made by it hereunder and Ancillary Facilities made available by it
pursuant to Section 2.22, each Agent in its individual capacity and not as Agent
shall have the same rights and powers as any other Lender and may exercise the
same as though it were not an Agent, and the Agents and their Affiliates may
accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business
with any Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries or other Affiliates thereof as if
it were not an Agent.

         SECTION 9.05. Indemnification. Each Lender and each Ancillary Lender
agrees (a) to reimburse the Agents, on demand, in the amount of its pro rata
share (based on its Commitments hereunder (or if such Commitments shall have
expired or been terminated, in accordance with the respective principal amounts
of its applicable outstanding Loans or participations in L/C Disbursements, as
applicable)) of any reasonable expenses incurred for the benefit of the Lenders
and Ancillary Lenders by the Agents, including counsel fees and compensation of
agents and employees paid for services rendered on behalf of the Lenders and
Ancillary Lenders, which shall not have been reimbursed by the U.S. Borrower and
(b) to indemnify and hold harmless each Agent and any of its directors,
officers, employees or agents, on demand, in the amount of such pro rata share,
from and against any and all liabilities, Taxes, obligations, losses, damages,
penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any
kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted
against it in its capacity as Agent or any of them in any way relating to or
arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any action taken or
omitted by it or any of them under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, to
the extent the same shall not have been reimbursed by the U.S. Borrower,
provided that no Lender or Ancillary Lender shall be liable to an Agent for any
portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions,
judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the gross
negligence or wilful misconduct of such Agent or any of its directors, officers,
employees or agents.

         SECTION 9.06. Lack of Reliance on Agents. Each Lender and each
Ancillary Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance
upon the Agents, any Lender or any Ancillary Lender and based on such documents
and information as it has deemed

                                                                             127

appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this
Agreement. Each Lender and each Ancillary Lender also acknowledges that it will,
independently and without reliance upon the Agents, any other Lender or any
Ancillary Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall from
time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or
not taking action under or based upon this Agreement or any other Loan Document,
any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

         SECTION 9.07. Designation of Affiliates for Foreign Currency Loans. The
Administrative Agent shall be permitted from time to time to designate one of
its Affiliates to perform the duties to be performed by the Administrative Agent
hereunder with respect to Loans and Borrowings denominated in Foreign Currencies
and Foreign Currency Letters of Credit. The provisions of this Article VIII
shall apply to any such Affiliate mutatis mutandis.

persons or on their behalf, and shall continue in full force and effect as long
as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or L/C Disbursement, any
extension of credit under Ancillary Facility remains outstanding or any Fee or
any other amount payable under this Agreement or any other Loan Document is
outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the

         SECTION 10.03. Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective

void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or
obligations hereunder except in accordance

                                                                             129

any Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), Participants (to the extent

         (A) the U.S. Borrower; provided that no consent of the U.S. Borrower
    shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender,
    an Approved Fund or, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,
    any other assignee (provided that any liability of the Borrowers to an
    assignee that is an Approved Fund or Affiliate of the assigning Lender under
    Section 2.15, 2.17 or 2.21 shall be limited to the amount, if any, that
    would have been payable thereunder by such Borrower in the absence of such
    assignment); and

         (B) the Administrative Agent; provided that no consent of the
    Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment of (i) a Global

         (A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a
    Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of the entire remaining amount
    of the assigning Lender's Commitment, the amount of the Commitment of the
    assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date
    the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered
    to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than (x) $5,000,000 (or
    $1,000,000 in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a
    Lender or an Approved Fund), in the case of Revolving Credit Commitments,
    Revolving Loans denominated in Dollars and Tranche A Term Loans, (y) the
    smallest amount of the applicable Foreign Currency that is a multiple of
    1,000,000 units of such Foreign Currency and has a Dollar Equivalent in
    excess of $5,000,000, in the case of Tranche C-2 Term Loans and Global
    Revolving Facility Loans denominated in a Foreign Currency and (z)

    Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent; provided that no
    such consent of the U.S. Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default
    under paragraph (b), (c), (h) or (i) of Section 7.01 has occurred and is
    continuing;

                                                                             130

         (B) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a
    proportionate part of all the assigning Lender's rights and obligations
    under this Agreement;

         (C) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the
    Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a
    processing and recordation fee of $3,500;

         (D) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the
    Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire; and

         (E) no assignment of Global Revolving Facility Loans or Global
    Revolving Facility Commitments shall be permitted to be made to an assignee
    that cannot make Global Revolving Facility Loans in Dollars and each of the
    Foreign Currencies.

         For purposes of this Section 9.04(b), the term "Approved Fund" shall
have the following meaning:

         "Approved Fund" shall mean any person (other than a natural person)
that is engaged in making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and
similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business and that is
administered or managed by a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an entity or an
Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender.

         (iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph
(b)(iv) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each
Assignment and Acceptance the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and,
to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have
the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning
Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such
Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement
(and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning
Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to
be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections
2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.05). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or
obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.04
shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a
participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of
this Section.

         (iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of
the U.S. Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each
Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of
the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal
amount of the Loans and L/C Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the
terms hereof from time to time (the "Register"). The entries in the Register
shall be conclusive, and the U.S. Borrower, the Agents, each Issuing Bank and
the Lenders may treat each person whose name is recorded in the Register
pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this
Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the

                                                                             131

contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the U.S. Borrower,
any Issuing Bank and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time
upon reasonable prior notice.

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

         (c) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the U.S. Borrower, the
Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Swingline Lender, sell
participations to one or more banks or other entities (a "Participant") in all
or a portion of such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement
(including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it);
provided that (A) such Lender's obligations under this Agreement shall remain
unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties
hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Borrowers, the
Agents, each Issuing Bank and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely
and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and
obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which
a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain
the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment,
modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such
agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the
consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver
described in Section 9.04(a)(i) or clauses (i) (disregarding for this purpose
the parenthetical contained therein), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v) or (vi) of the
first proviso to Section 9.08(b) that affects such Participant. Subject to
paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section, each of the Borrowers agrees that each
Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15, 2.16 and 2.17 to
the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by
assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by
law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.06 as
though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to
Section 2.18(c) as though it were a Lender.

         (ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment
under Section 2.15 or 2.17 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled
to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless
the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the U.S.
Borrower's prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender
if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.17 unless
the U.S. Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and
such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrowers, to comply with
Section 2.17(e) as though it were a Lender.

         (d) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in
all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of
such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a
Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or
assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or

                                                                             132

assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its
obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender
as a party hereto.

         SECTION 10.05. Expenses; Indemnity. (a) The U.S. Borrower agrees to pay
all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including documentary Taxes) incurred by
the Agents in connection with the preparation of this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents, or by the Agents in connection with the syndication of the
Commitments or the administration of this Agreement (including expenses incurred
in connection with due diligence and initial and ongoing Collateral examination
to the extent incurred with the reasonable prior approval of the U.S. Borrower
and the reasonable fees, disbursements and the charges for no more than one
counsel in each jurisdiction where Collateral is located) or in connection with
any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof
(whether or not the transactions hereby contemplated shall be consummated) or
incurred by the Agents, any Lender or any Ancillary Lender in connection with
the enforcement or protection of their rights in connection with this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents, in connection with the Loans made, the Ancillary
Facilities made available pursuant to Section 2.22 or the Letters of Credit
issued hereunder, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of
Cravath, Swaine & Moore, counsel for the Administrative Agent and the Collateral
Agent, and, in connection with any such enforcement or protection, the
reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any other counsel (including the
reasonable allocated costs of internal counsel if a Lender elects to use
internal counsel in lieu of outside counsel) for the Agents, any Issuing Bank,
any Lender or any Ancillary Lender (but no more than one such counsel for any
Lender or any Ancillary Lender).

         (b) The U.S. Borrower agrees to indemnify the Agents, each Issuing
Bank, each Lender, each Ancillary Lender and each of their respective directors,
trustees, officers, employees and agents (each such person being called an
"Indemnitee") against, and to hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all
losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including reasonable
counsel fees, charges and disbursements, incurred by or asserted against any
Indemnitee arising out of, in any way connected with, or as a result of (i) the
execution or delivery of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any
agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the
parties hereto and thereto of their respective obligations thereunder or the
consummation of the Transactions and the other transactions contemplated hereby,
(ii) the use of the proceeds of the Loans or the use of any Letter of Credit or
(iii) any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the
foregoing, whether or not any Indemnitee is a party thereto, provided that such
indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such
losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses result primarily from
the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of such Indemnitee (treating, for this
purpose only, any Agent, any Issuing Bank, any Lender, any Ancillary Lender and
any of their respective Related Parties as a single Indemnitee). Subject to and
without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the U.S. Borrower
agrees to indemnify each Indemnitee against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless
from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses,
including reasonable counsel or consultant fees, charges and disbursements,
incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in any way
connected with, or as a result of (A) any Environmental Claim related in any way
to Holdings, Intermediate Holdings,

                                                                             133

the U.S. Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries, or (B) any actual or alleged
presence, Release or threatened Release of Hazardous Materials on any Property
or any property owned, leased or operated by any predecessor of Holdings,
Intermediate Holdings, the U.S. Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries, provided
that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent
that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable
judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of such
Indemnitee or any of its Related Parties. The provisions of this Section 9.05
shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the expiration
of the term of this Agreement, the consummation of the transactions contemplated
hereby, the repayment of any of the Obligations, the invalidity or
unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan
Document, or any investigation made by or on behalf of any Agent, any Issuing
Bank, any Lender or any Ancillary Lender. All amounts due under this Section
9.05 shall be payable on written demand therefor.

         (c) Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
the U.S. Borrower shall be entitled to assume the defense of any action for
which indemnification is sought hereunder with counsel of its choice at its
expense (in which case the U.S. Borrower shall not thereafter be responsible for
the fees and expenses of any separate counsel retained by an Indemnitee except
as set forth below); provided, however, that such counsel shall be reasonably
satisfactory to each such Indemnitee. Notwithstanding the U.S. Borrower's
election to assume the defense of such action, each Indemnitee shall have the
right to employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense of such
action, and the U.S. Borrower shall bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses
of such separate counsel, if (i) the use of counsel chosen by the U.S. Borrower
to represent such Indemnitee would present such counsel with a conflict of
interest; (ii) the actual or potential defendants in, or targets of, any such
action include both the U.S. Borrower and such Indemnitee and such Indemnitee
shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it
that are different from or additional to those available to the U.S. Borrower
(in which case the U.S. Borrower shall not have the right to assume the defense
or such action on behalf of such Indemnitee); (iii) the U.S. Borrower shall not
have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnitee to represent it
within a reasonable time after notice of the institution of such action; or (iv)
the U.S. Borrower shall authorize such Indemnitee to employ separate counsel at
the U.S. Borrower's expense. The U.S. Borrower will not be liable under this
Agreement for any amount paid by an Indemnitee to settle any claims or actions
if the settlement is entered into without the U.S. Borrower's consent, which
consent may not be withheld or delayed unless such settlement is unreasonable in
light of such claims or actions against, and defenses available to, such
Indemnitee.

         (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 9.05, this
Section 9.05 shall not apply to Taxes, it being understood that the U.S.
Borrower's only obligations with respect to Taxes shall arise under Sections
2.15 and 2.17.

         SECTION 10.06. Right of Set-off. If an Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, each Lender, each Issuing Bank and each Ancillary
Lender is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest
extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or
special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other
indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such
Ancillary Lender to or for the credit or the account of Holdings, Intermediate
Holdings, the U.S. Borrower or any Subsidiary against any of and all the
obligations of Holdings or the U.S. Borrower now or hereafter existing under
this Agreement or any other Loan Document held by such Lender, such Issuing Bank
or such Ancillary Lender, irrespective of whether or not such

                                                                             134

Lender, such Issuing Bank or such Ancillary Lender shall have made any demand
under this Agreement or such other Loan Document and although the obligations
may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender, each Issuing Bank and each
Ancillary Lender under this Section 9.06 are in addition to other rights and
remedies (including other rights of set-off) that such Lender, such Issuing Bank
or such Ancillary Lender may have.

         SECTION 10.07. Applicable Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN
DOCUMENTS (OTHER THAN LETTERS OF CREDIT AND AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN OTHER LOAN
DOCUMENTS) SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE
STATE OF NEW YORK.

         SECTION 10.08. Waivers; Amendment. (a) No failure or delay of the
Agents, any Issuing Bank, any Lender or any Ancillary Lender in exercising any
right or power hereunder or under any Loan Document shall operate as a waiver
thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or
any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power,
preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other
right or power. The rights and remedies of the Agents, each Issuing Bank, the
Lenders and each Ancillary Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents
are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would
otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan
Document or consent to any departure by Holdings, Intermediate Holdings, any
Borrower or any other Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective
unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) below, and then such waiver
or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose
for which given. No notice or demand on Holdings, Intermediate Holdings, any
Borrower or any other Loan Party in any case shall entitle such person to any
other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

         (b) Neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any
provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or modified except (x) in the
case of this Agreement, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing
entered into by Holdings, Intermediate Holdings, the Borrowers and the Required
Lenders, (y) in the case of any Ancillary Facility Document, pursuant to an
agreement or agreements in writing entered into by each party thereto and (z) in
the case of any other Loan Document, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in
writing entered into by each party thereto and the Collateral Agent and
consented to by the Required Lenders; provided, however, that no such agreement
shall (i) decrease or forgive the principal amount of, or extend the final
maturity of, or decrease the rate of interest on, any Loan or any L/C
Disbursement, without the prior written consent of each Lender directly affected
thereby, (ii) increase or extend the Commitment of any Lender or decrease the
Commitment Fees or L/C Participation Fees or other fees of any Lender without
the prior written consent of such Lender, (iii) extend or waive any Installment
Date or extend any date on which payment of interest on any Loan or any L/C
Disbursement is due, without the prior written consent of each Lender adversely
affected thereby, (iv) amend or modify the provisions of Section 2.18(b) or (c)
in a manner that would by its terms alter the pro rata sharing of payments
required thereby, without the prior written consent of each Lender adversely
affected thereby, (v) amend or modify the provisions of this Section or the
definition of "Required Lenders", "Majority Lenders" or any other provision
hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders or Ancillary Lenders
required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any
determination or grant any

                                                                             135

consent hereunder, without the prior written consent of each Lender or Ancillary
Lender adversely affected thereby (it being understood that, with the consent of
the Required Lenders, additional extensions of credit pursuant to this Agreement
may be included in the determination of the Required Lenders on substantially
the same basis as the Loans and Commitments are included on the Closing Date),
(vi) release all or substantially all the Collateral or release any of Holdings,
Intermediate Holdings or any Subsidiary Loan Party from its Guarantee under the
U.S. Collateral Agreement or the Foreign Guarantee, as applicable, unless, in
the case of a Subsidiary Loan Party, all or substantially all the Equity
Interests of such Subsidiary Loan Party is sold or otherwise disposed of in a
transaction permitted by this Agreement, without the prior written consent of
each Lender adversely affected thereby, (vii) effect any waiver, amendment or
modification that by its terms adversely affects the rights in respect of
payments or collateral of Lenders participating in any Facility differently from
those of Lenders participating in other Facilities, without the consent of the
Majority Lenders participating in the adversely affected Facility or (viii)
change the relative rights in respect of payments or collateral of the Lenders
participating in different Facilities or Ancillary Facilities without the
consent of the Majority Lenders participating in each adversely affected
Facility and each adversely affected Ancillary Lender; provided, further, that
no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties
of the Administrative Agent or an Issuing Bank hereunder without the prior
written consent of the Administrative Agent or such Issuing Bank acting as such
at the effective date of such agreement, as applicable. Each Lender shall be
bound by any waiver, amendment or modification authorized by this Section 9.08
and any consent by any Lender pursuant to this Section 9.08 shall bind any
assignee of such Lender.

         SECTION 10.09. Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, if at any time the applicable interest rate, together
with all fees and charges that are treated as interest under applicable law
(collectively, the "Charges"), as provided for herein or in any other document
executed in connection herewith, or otherwise contracted for, charged, received,
taken or reserved by any Lender, any Ancillary Lender or any Issuing Bank, shall
exceed the maximum lawful rate (the "Maximum Rate") that may be contracted for,
charged, taken, received or reserved by such Lender in accordance with
applicable law, the rate of interest payable hereunder, together with all
Charges payable to such Lender, such Ancillary Lender or such Issuing Bank,
shall be limited to the Maximum Rate, provided that such excess amount shall be
paid to such Lender, such Ancillary Lender or such Issuing Bank on subsequent
payment dates to the extent not exceeding the legal limitation.

SECTION 10.10. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and
the agreements regarding certain Fees referred to herein constitute the entire
contract between the parties relative to the subject matter hereof. Any previous
agreement among or representations from the parties with respect to the subject
matter hereof is superseded by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
Nothing in this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents, expressed or implied,
is intended to confer upon any party other than the parties hereto and thereto
any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

         SECTION 10.11. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES,
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A
TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION

                                                                             136

DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS
AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS. EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES
THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED,
EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF
LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT
AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND
THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, AS APPLICABLE, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL
WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 9.11.

         SECTION 10.12. Severability. In the event any one or more of the
provisions contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document should be
held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality
and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and therein
shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. The parties shall endeavor
in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable
provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as
possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.

         SECTION 10.13. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or
more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original but all of which,
when taken together, shall constitute but one contract, and shall become
effective as provided in Section 9.03.

         SECTION 10.14. Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of
Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this
Agreement and are not to affect the construction of, or to be taken into
consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

         SECTION 10.15. Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. (a) Each of
Holdings and each Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for
itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any New York State
court or federal court of the United States of America sitting in New York City,
and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising
out of or relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or for
recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto
hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any
such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or,
to the extent permitted by law, in such federal court. Each of the parties
hereto 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. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any
right that any Lender, any Issuing Bank or any Ancillary Lender may otherwise
have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the other
Loan Documents against Holdings, Intermediate Holdings, any Borrower or any Loan
Party or their properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

         (b) Each of Holdings and each Borrower hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do
so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of
any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating

                                                                             137

to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents in any New York State or federal
court. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest
extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance
of such action or proceeding in any such court.

         SECTION 10.16. Confidentiality. Each of the Lenders, each Issuing Bank,
each Ancillary Lender and each of the Agents agrees that it shall maintain in
confidence any information relating to Holdings, Intermediate Holdings, the U.S.
Borrower and the other Loan Parties furnished to it by or on behalf of Holdings,
Intermediate Holdings, the U.S. Borrower or the other Loan Parties (other than
information that (a) has become generally available to the public other than as
a result of a disclosure by such party, (b) has been independently developed by
such Lender, such Issuing Bank, such Ancillary Lender or such Agent without
violating this Section 9.16 or (c) was available to such Lender, such Issuing
Bank, such Ancillary Lender or such Agent from a third party having, to such
person's knowledge, no obligations of confidentiality to Holdings, Intermediate
Holdings, the U.S. Borrower or any other Loan Party) and shall not reveal the
same other than to its directors, trustees, officers, employees and advisors
with a need to know or to any person that approves or administers the Loans on
behalf of such Lender or the Ancillary Facility on behalf of such Lender (so
long as each such person shall have been instructed to keep the same
confidential in accordance with this Section 9.16), except: (A) to the extent
necessary to comply with law or any legal process or the requirements of any
Governmental Authority, the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or
of any securities exchange on which securities of the disclosing party or any
Affiliate of the disclosing party are listed or traded, (B) as part of normal
reporting or review procedures to Governmental Authorities or the National
Association of Insurance Commissioners, (C) to its parent companies, Affiliates
or auditors (so long as each such person shall have been instructed to keep the
same confidential in accordance with this Section 9.16), (D) in order to enforce
its rights under any Loan Document in a legal proceeding, (E) to any prospective
assignee of, or prospective Participant in, any of its rights under this
Agreement (so long as such person shall have been instructed to keep the same
confidential in accordance with this Section 9.16) and (F) to any direct or
indirect contractual counterparty in Swap Agreements or such contractual
counterparty's professional advisor (so long as such contractual counterparty or
professional advisor to such contractual counterparty agrees to be bound by the
provisions of this Section. Furthermore, prior to the 75th day after the Closing
Date, no Lender, Agent, Issuing Bank or Ancillary Lender shall, without the
prior consent of the U.S. Borrower, make any public announcement (except to the
extent required by law) concerning the Transaction or the financing therefor.

         SECTION 10.17. Conversion of Currencies. (a) If, for the purpose of
obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum owing
hereunder in one currency into another currency, each party hereto (including
any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower) agrees, to the fullest extent that it may
effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in
accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction the first
currency could be purchased with such other currency on the Business Day
immediately preceding the day on which final judgment is given.

         (b) The obligations of each Borrower in respect of any sum due to any
party hereto or any holder of the obligations owing hereunder (the "Applicable
Creditor") shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the "Judgment
Currency") other than the currency

                                                                             138

in which such sum is stated to be due hereunder (the "Agreement Currency"), be
discharged only to the extent that, on the Business Day following receipt by the
Applicable Creditor of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency,
the Applicable Creditor may in accordance with normal banking procedures in the
relevant jurisdiction purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment
Currency; if the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the
sum originally due to the Applicable Creditor in the Agreement Currency, such
Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment,
to indemnify the Applicable Creditor against such loss. The obligations of the
Borrowers contained in this Section 9.17 shall survive the termination of this
Agreement and the payment of all other amounts owing hereunder.

         SECTION 10.18. [Intentionally Omitted].

                                   ARTICLE XI

                         Ancillary Facility Adjustments

         SECTION 11.01. Exchange of Interests in Ancillary Facilities. (a) On
the CAM Exchange Date and immediately prior to the deemed exchange of interests
pursuant to the CAM Exchange as provided in Section 11.01(a)(ii):

         (i) the principal amount of each Global Revolving Facility Loan
    denominated in a Foreign Currency and of each Ancillary Credit Extension
    shall, automatically and with no further action required, be converted into
    the Dollar Equivalent, determined using the Exchange Rates calculated as of
    the CAM Exchange Date, of such amount and, subject to Section 11.01(a)(iv),
    on and after such date all amounts accruing and owed to any Lender or any
    Ancillary Lender in respect of such Obligations shall accrue and be payable
    in Dollars at the rates otherwise applicable hereunder;

         (ii) in the event that on the CAM Exchange Date any Unfunded Ancillary
    Credit Extension (in respect of which cash collateral shall not have
    previously been deposited pursuant to Section 2.22(e)) shall exist, or the
    applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall have failed to reimburse a
    disbursement made by the applicable Ancillary Lender, the applicable
    Ancillary Lender shall promptly pay over to the Administrative Agent, in
    immediately available funds, an amount in Dollars equal to such Unfunded
    Ancillary Credit Extension or unreimbursed disbursement, together with
    interest thereon from the CAM Exchange Date to the date on which such amount
    shall be paid to the Administrative Agent at the rate that would be
    applicable at the time to an ABR Revolving Loan in a principal amount equal
    to such Unfunded Ancillary Credit Extension or unreimbursed disbursement.
    The Administrative Agent shall establish an account (the "Unfunded Ancillary
    Credit Extension Account") and shall deposit all amounts received pursuant
    to the previous sentence and all amounts of cash collateral previously
    deposited pursuant to Section 2.22(e) in the Unfunded Ancillary Credit
    Extension Account pending application of such amounts pursuant to Section
    11.02. The Administrative Agent shall have sole dominion and control over
    the Unfunded Ancillary Credit Extension Account; and

                                                                             139

         (iii) there shall be a deemed buying and selling of interests (without
    regard to Section 9.04) in the outstanding Global Revolving Facility Loans
    and Ancillary Credit Extensions by the Global Revolving Facility Lenders
    (and each Global Revolving Facility Lender shall promptly make payment
    therefor to the Administrative Agent in the same manner as provided in
    Section 2.06 with respect to Loans made by such Global Revolving Facility
    Lender (and Section 2.06 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to such payment
    obligations of such Global Revolving Facility Lender) for distribution to
    the applicable Global Revolving Facility Lenders) such that, after giving
    effect to such deemed buying and selling of interests, each Global Revolving
    Facility Lender holds its ratable share of the Global Revolving Facility
    Loans (based on the respective Global Revolving Facility Commitments of the
    Global Revolving Facility Lenders immediately prior to the CAM Exchange
    Date) of each outstanding Global Revolving Facility Loan and each Ancillary
    Credit Extension.

                                   ARTICLE XII

                         Collection Allocation Mechanism

         SECTION 12.01. Implementation of CAM. (a) On the CAM Exchange Date, (i)
the Commitments shall automatically and without further act be terminated as
provided in Section 7.01, (ii) each Global Revolving Facility Lender shall
immediately be deemed to have acquired (and shall promptly make payment therefor
to the Applicable Agent in accordance with Section 2.04(c)) participations in
the Swingline Loans (other than any Swingline Foreign Currency Loan in respect
of which Global Revolving Facility Lenders have funded their purchase of
participations pursuant to Section 2.04(c)) in an amount equal to such Global
Revolving Facility Lender's ratable share (based on the respective Global
Revolving Facility Commitments of the Global Revolving Facility Lenders
immediately prior to the CAM Exchange Date) of each Swingline Foreign Currency
Loan outstanding on such date, (iii) each U.S. Revolving Facility Lender shall
immediately be deemed to have acquired (and shall promptly make payment therefor
to the Applicable Agent in accordance with Section 2.04(c)) participations in
the Swingline Dollar Loans (other than any Swingline Dollar Loan in respect of
which the U.S. Revolving Facility Lenders have funded their purchase of
participations pursuant to Section 2.04(c)) in an amount equal to such U.S.
Revolving Facility Lender's U.S. Revolving Facility Percentage of each Swingline
Dollar Loan outstanding on such date, (iv) simultaneously with the automatic
conversions pursuant to clause (v) below, the Lenders shall automatically and
without further act (and without regard to the provisions of Section 9.04) be
deemed to have exchanged interests in the Loans (other than the Swingline
Loans), Funded Ancillary Credit Extensions and participations in Unfunded
Ancillary Credit Extensions, Swingline Loans and Letters of Credit, such that in
lieu of the interest of each Lender in each Loan, Letter of Credit and Ancillary
Credit Extension in which it shall participate as of such date (including such
Lender's interest in the Obligations of each Loan Party in respect of each such
Loan, Letter of Credit and Ancillary Credit Extension), such Lender shall hold
an interest in every one of the Loans (other than the Swingline Loans) and
Funded Ancillary Credit Extensions and a participation in every one of the
Swingline Loans, Letters of Credit and Unfunded Ancillary Credit Extensions
(including the Obligations of each Loan Party in respect of each such Loan and
Ancillary Credit Extension and each Reserve Account established pursuant to
Section 11.02 below), whether or not such Lender shall previously have
participated therein, equal to such

                                                                             140

Lender's CAM Percentage thereof and (v) simultaneously with the deemed exchange
of interests pursuant to clause (iv) above, (A) in the case of the CAM Euro
Lenders, the interest in the Loans and Funded Ancillary Credit Extensions
denominated in a currency other than Euros to be received in such deemed
exchange shall, automatically and with no further action required, be converted
into the Euro Equivalent, determined using the Exchange Rate calculated as of
such date, of such amount and on and after such date all amounts accruing and
owed to the CAM Euro Lenders in respect of such Obligations shall accrue and be
payable in Euros at the rates otherwise applicable hereunder and (B) in the case
of the CAM Dollar Lenders, the interests in the Loans and Funded Ancillary
Credit Extensions to be received in such deemed exchange shall, automatically
and with no further action required, be converted into the Dollar Equivalent,
determined using the Exchange Rate calculated as of such date, of such amount
and on and after such date all amounts accruing and owed to the CAM Dollar
Lenders in respect of such Obligation shall accrue and be payable in Dollars at
the rate otherwise applicable hereunder. Each Lender and each Loan Party hereby
consents and agrees to the CAM Exchange, and each Lender agrees that the CAM
Exchange shall be binding upon its successors and assigns and any person that
acquires a participation in its interests in any Loan or Ancillary Credit
Extension. Each Loan Party agrees from time to time to execute and deliver to
the Administrative Agent all such promissory notes and other instruments and
documents as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request to evidence and
confirm the respective interests of the Lenders after giving effect to the CAM
Exchange, and each Lender agrees to surrender any promissory notes originally
received by it in connection with its Loans hereunder to the Administrative
Agent against delivery of any promissory notes evidencing its interests in the
Loans and Funded Ancillary Credit Extensions so executed and delivered;
provided, however, that the failure of any Loan Party to execute or deliver or
of any Lender to accept any such promissory note, instrument or document shall
not affect the validity or effectiveness of the CAM Exchange.

         (b) As a result of the CAM Exchange, upon and after the CAM Exchange
Date, each payment received by the Applicable Agent or the Collateral Agent
pursuant to any Loan Document in respect of the Obligations, and each
distribution made by the Collateral Agent pursuant to any Security Document in
respect of the Obligations, shall be distributed to the Lenders pro rata in
accordance with their respective CAM Percentages. Any direct payment received by
a Lender upon or after the CAM Exchange Date, including by way of set-off, in
respect of an Obligation shall be paid over to the Applicable Agent for
distribution to the Lenders in accordance herewith.

         SECTION 12.02. Letters of Credit and Unfunded Ancillary Credit
Extensions. (a) In the event that on the CAM Exchange Date any Letter of Credit
shall be outstanding and undrawn in whole or in part, or any L/C Disbursement
shall not have been reimbursed either by an Applicant Party or, in the case of
any L/C Disbursement made in Dollars, with the proceeds of a U.S. Revolving
Facility Borrowing or Swingline Dollar Borrowing, each U.S. Revolving Facility
Lender shall promptly pay over to the Administrative Agent, in immediately
available funds, an amount in Dollars equal to such U.S. Revolving Facility
Lender's U.S. Revolving Facility Percentage of such undrawn face amount (or, in
the case of any Foreign Currency Letter of Credit, the Dollar Equivalent of such
face amount) or (to the extent it has not already done so) such unreimbursed
drawing, as applicable, together with interest thereon from the CAM Exchange
Date to the date on which such amount shall be paid to the Administrative Agent
at the rate that would be applicable at the time to an ABR Revolving Loan in a
principal amount equal

                                                                             141

to such undrawn face amount or unreimbursed drawing, as applicable. The
Administrative Agent shall establish a separate account (each, a "Reserve
Account") or accounts for each Lender for the amounts received with respect to
each such Letter of Credit pursuant to the preceding sentence The Administrative
Agent shall deposit in each Lender's Reserve Account such Lender's CAM
Percentage of (x) the amounts received from the Revolving Credit Lenders as
provided above and (y) the amounts on deposit in the Unfunded Ancillary Credit
Extension Account. The Administrative Agent shall have sole dominion and control
over each Reserve Account, and the amounts deposited in each Reserve Account
shall be held in such Reserve Account until withdrawn as provided in paragraph
(b), (c), (d) or (e) below. The Administrative Agent shall maintain records
enabling it to determine the amounts paid over to it and deposited in the
Reserve Accounts in respect of each Letter of Credit and Unfunded Ancillary
Credit Extension and the amounts on deposit in respect of each Letter of Credit
and Unfunded Ancillary Credit Extension attributable to each Lender's CAM
Percentage. The amounts held in each Lender's Reserve Account shall be held as a
reserve against the Revolving L/C Exposures and payment obligations in respect
of Unfunded Ancillary Credit Extensions, shall be the property of such Lender,
shall not constitute Loans to or give rise to any claim of or against any Loan
Party and shall not give rise to any obligation on the part of the U.S. Borrower
to pay interest to such Lender, it being agreed that the reimbursement
obligations in respect of (x) Letters of Credit shall arise only at such times
as drawings are made thereunder, as provided in Section 2.05, and (y)
disbursements under any Ancillary Facility shall arise only at such time as
payments are required under such Ancillary Facility.

         (b) In the event that after the CAM Exchange Date any drawing shall be
made in respect of a Letter of Credit or any payment shall be made in respect of
an Unfunded Ancillary Credit Extension, the Administrative Agent shall, at the
request of the applicable Issuing Bank or Ancillary Lender, as applicable,
withdraw from the Reserve Account of each Lender any amounts, up to the amount
of such Lender's CAM Percentage of such drawing or payment, deposited in respect
of such Letter of Credit or Unfunded Ancillary Credit Extension and remaining on
deposit and deliver such amounts, in the case of a Letter of Credit, to such
Issuing Bank in satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the U.S.
Revolving Facility Lenders under Section 2.05(d) (but not of the U.S. Borrower
under Section 2.05(e)) or, in the case of an Unfunded Ancillary Credit
Extension, to the applicable Ancillary Lender. In the event that any U.S.
Revolving Facility Lender shall default on its obligation to pay over any amount
to the Administrative Agent as provided in this Section 11.02, the applicable
Issuing Bank shall have a claim against such U.S. Revolving Facility Lender to
the same extent as if such Lender had defaulted on its obligations under Section
2.05(d), but shall have no claim against any other Lender in respect of such
defaulted amount, notwithstanding the exchange of interests in the applicable
Borrower's reimbursement obligations pursuant to Section 11.01. Each other
Lender shall have a claim against such defaulting U.S. Revolving Facility Lender
for any damages sustained by it as a result of such default, including, in the
event that such Letter of Credit shall expire undrawn, its CAM Percentage of the
defaulted amount.

         (c) In the event that after the CAM Exchange Date any Letter of Credit
shall expire undrawn, or an Unfunded Ancillary Credit Extension shall expire
without requiring payment, the Administrative Agent shall withdraw from the
Reserve Account of each Lender the amount remaining on deposit therein in
respect of such Letter of Credit, or Unfunded Ancillary Credit Extension, as
applicable, and distribute such amount to such Lender.

                                                                             142

         (d) With the prior written approval of the Administrative Agent (not to
be unreasonably withheld), any Lender may withdraw the amount held in its
Reserve Account in respect of the undrawn amount of any Letter of Credit or
Unfunded Ancillary Credit Extension. Any Lender making such a withdrawal shall
be unconditionally obligated, in the event there shall subsequently be a drawing
under such Letter of Credit or payment in respect of an Unfunded Ancillary
Credit Extension, to pay over to the Administrative Agent, for the account of
the Issuing Bank or Ancillary Lender, as applicable, on demand, its CAM
Percentage of such drawing or payment.

         (e) Pending the withdrawal by any Lender of any amounts from its
Reserve Account as contemplated by the above paragraphs, the Administrative
Agent will, at the direction of such Lender and subject to such rules as the
Administrative Agent may prescribe for the avoidance of inconvenience, invest
such amounts in Permitted Investments. Each Lender that has not withdrawn its
amounts in its Reserve Account as provided in paragraph (d) above shall have the
right, at intervals reasonably specified by the Administrative Agent, to
withdraw the earnings on investments so made by the Administrative Agent with
amounts in its Reserve Account and to retain such earnings for its own account.

         SECTION 12.03. Original Credit Agreement; Effectiveness of Amendment
and Restatement. Until this Agreement becomes effective in accordance with the
terms of the Amendment and Restatement Agreement, the Original Credit Agreement
shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected hereby. After
the Restatement Effective Date, all obligations of the Borrowers under the
Original Credit Agreement shall become obligations of the Borrowers hereunder,
secured by the Security Documents, and the provisions of the Original Credit
Agreement shall be superseded by the provisions hereof.Exhibit 10.10

         -----------

         (A)   IN these presents unless there is anything in the subject
or context inconsistent therewith the expressions listed below shall have the
following meanings, namely:

         "Adjusted Capital and Reserves" means at any relevant time the
         aggregate of the amount of the issued and paid up share capital of the
         Company and the aggregate amount standing to the credit of the
         consolidated capital and revenue reserves of the Company and the
         Subsidiaries (including for the purpose hereof any share premium
         account, capital redemption reserve, revaluation reserve, the
         unappropriated balance of investment grants and the amount standing to
         the credit of the profit and loss account), all as shown in the Latest
         Consolidated Balance Sheet but:

                  (i)    adjusted as may be appropriate to take account of (a)
                  any increase in or reduction of such share capital and
                  reserves (other than in respect of any unaudited profit or
                  loss attributed to the ordinary course of business) since
                  the date to which the Latest Consolidated Balance Sheet
                  shall have been made up (which shall include an issue or
                  proposed issue of share capital for cash which has been
                  unconditionally underwritten to the extent that the
                  underwriters are liable therefor and that such capital is
                  required to be paid up within six months from the date when
                  such underwriting liability becomes unconditional), (b) any
                  distributions in cash or in specie made (otherwise than to
                  the Company or to a Subsidiary from such reserves or profit
                  and loss account since such date and not

                                                                               2

                  provided for therein, (c) any Subsidiary not consolidated in
                  the Latest Consolidated Balance Sheet, any companies which
                  since the date thereof have ceased to be Subsidiaries and
                  any companies which will become or will cease to be
                  Subsidiaries as a result of the transaction in relation to
                  which the calculation fails to be made, and (d) any other
                  variation in the Company's interests in Subsidiaries since
                  the date of the Latest Consolidated Balance Sheet;

                  (ii)   after excluding any sums set aside for taxation
                  (including deferred tax) and any amount attributable to
                  minority interests in Subsidiaries;

                  (iii)  after deducting all amounts (if any) attributable to
                  goodwill or otherwise attributable to intangible assets and
                  any debit balance on profit and loss account or other
                  reserve account;

                  (iv)   adding thereto, in accordance with generally accepted
                  accounting principles of the United States of America, sums
                  equivalent to the unamortized balance of goodwill arising on
                  acquisitions of companies and businesses remaining part of
                  the Group which, as at the date of the relevant calculation,
                  have been written off against share capital and reserves in
                  accordance with United Kingdom accounting practices;

                  (v)    after deducting an amount equal to such part of the
                  interest of the Company or any of the Subsidiaries in a
                  related company as is attributable to any post-acquisition
                  undistributed profits and reserves, but including such
                  interests at original cost or, if lower, book value;

                  (vi)   after deducting (if not otherwise deducted) such amount
                  (if any) as the Auditors shall consider appropriate in
                  respect of any contingent taxation liabilities on the net
                  amount by which the fixed assets of the Company and the
                  Subsidiaries shall have been written up as a result of any
                  revaluation; and

                  (vii)  after making such other adjustments (if any) as the
                  Auditors may consider appropriate.

         "Auditors" means the auditors for the time being of the Company or, in
         the event of their being unable or unwilling to carry out any action
         requested of them pursuant to the provisions of these presents, such
         other firm of chartered accounts as the Trustee may in writing nominate
         or approve for the purpose after consultation with the Company;

         "Bearer Security" means a Security which is for the time being in
         bearer form;

         "Borrowed Money" means (a) money borrowed and premiums in respect
         thereof, (b) liabilities under or in respect of any acceptance or
         acceptance credit and (c) the principal and premium (if any) for the
         time being outstanding of any notes, bonds, debentures, loan stock or
         other securities whether issued in whole or in part for cash or other
         consideration;

                                                                               3

         "Borrowings" means and includes as at any date:

                  (i)    all moneys borrowed (with or without security) by any
                  member of the Group;

2.       Amount and Ranking of the Original Bonds and covenant to pay principal
         ----------------------------------------------------------------------
         and interest on the Original Bonds
         ----------------------------------

         (A)  The aggregate principal amount of the Original Bonds is limited to
(pound)100,000,000. The Original Bonds and the Original Coupons will constitute
unsecured obligations of the Company and rank and will rank pari passu without
any preference or priority among themselves and equally with all other existing
and future unsecured obligations of the Company, other than any subordinated or
statutorily preferred obligations in the manner provided in these presents.

         (B)  The Company hereby covenants with the Trustee that it will, in
accordance with the Conditions and these presents, on the due date for the final
maturity of the Original Bonds as specified in the Conditions, or on such
earlier date as any of them become payable thereunder, pay or procure to be paid
unconditionally to or to the order of the Trustee in pounds sterling in
immediately available funds in London the principal amount of the Original Bonds
repayable on that date and shall in the meantime and until such payment as well
after as before any judgment or other order of a court of competent jurisdiction
pay or procure to be paid unconditionally to or to the order of the Trustee as
aforesaid interest on the principal amount of the Original Bonds outstanding as
set out in the Conditions PROVIDED THAT (i) in any case where the date of
maturity of the principal or interest in respect of the Original Bonds or the
date fixed for redemption of any Original Bond shall not be at any place of
payment a business day, then payment of principal or interest shall not be made
on such date at such place of payment but shall be made on the next succeeding
day which is at such place of payment a business day, with the same force and
effect as if made on the date of maturity or the date fixed for payment or
redemption and no interest shall accrue for the period after such date; (ii)
every payment in accordance with the Conditions of principal or interest in
respect of the Original Bonds to or to the account of the Principal Paying Agent
in the manner provided in the Paying Agency Agreement shall operate in
satisfaction pro tanto of the relevant covenant by the Company

                                                                              11

contained in this Clause (and shall be deemed for the purpose of this Clause to
have been paid to or to the order of the Trustee) except to the extent that
there is default in the subsequent payment thereof in accordance with the
Conditions to the Original Bondholders or Original Couponholders (as the case
may be); (iii) in the case of any payment of principal made to the Trustee or
the Principal Paying Agent after the due date or pursuant to Condition 8,
interest shall continue to accrue at the rate set out in the Conditions on the
principal amount of the Original Bonds up to and including the date (being not
later than 14 days after the day on which the whole of such principal amount,
together with an amount equal to the interest which has accrued and is to accrue
up to and including that date, has been received by the Trustee or the Principal
Paying Agent) which the Trustee determines to be the date on and after which
payment is to be made to the Original Bondholders in respect thereof as stated
in a notice given to the Original Bondholders in accordance with Condition 13
provided that such date for payment shall be as soon as is reasonably
practicable after receipt by the Trustee or the Principal Paying Agent of any
payment of principal; (iv) in any case where payment of the whole or any part of
the principal amount of any Original Bond is improperly withheld or refused upon
due presentation thereof (other than in circumstances contemplated by (iii)
above) interest shall accrue on the principal amount of such Original Bond
payment of which has been so withheld or refused at the rate set out in the
Conditions from the date of such withholding or refusal until (but excluding)
the earlier of the date on which, on further presentation, payment in full of
the principal in respect thereof is made and the seventh day after the date on
which notice is given in accordance with the Conditions that the full amount
payable in respect of such Original Bond is available for payment (provided that
payment is in fact made on presentation); and (v) in any case where interest
fails to be paid in respect of a period of less than a year the amount thereof
shall be calculated on the basis of a 360 day year of 12 months of 30 days each
and, in the case of an incomplete month, the actual number of days elapsed.

         (C)  At any time after an Event of Default or a Potential Event of
Default has occurred, the Trustee may:

              (a)    by notice in writing to the Company the Principal Paying
              Agent and the Paying Agents require the Principal Paying Agent
              and the Paying Agents pursuant to the Paying Agency Agreement:

                     (i)   to act thereafter as Principal Paying Agent and
                     Paying Agents respectively of the Trustee in relation to
                     payments to be made by or on behalf of the Trustee under
                     the provisions of these presents mutatis mutandis on the
                     terms provided in the Paying Agency Agreement (save that
                     the Trustee's liability under any provisions thereof for
                     the indemnification remuneration and expenses of the
                     Principal Paying Agent and the Paying Agents shall be
                     limited to the amounts for the time being held by the
                     Trustee on the trusts of these presents) and thereafter to
                     hold all Securities and Coupons and all sums, documents and
                     records held by them in respect of Securities and Coupons
                     on behalf of the Trustee; or

                     (ii)  to deliver up all Securities and Coupons and all
                     sums, documents and records held by them in respect of
                     Securities and Coupons to the Trustee or as the Trustee
                     shall direct in such notice provided that such

                                                                              12

                     notice shall be deemed not to apply to any documents or
                     records which the relevant Paying Agent is obliged not to
                     release by any law or regulation; and

              (b)    by notice in writing to the Company require it to make all
              subsequent payments in respect of the Securities and Coupons to
              or to the order of the Trustee and not to the Principal Paying
              Agent; with effect from the issue of any such notice to the
              Company and until such notice is withdrawn proviso (ii) to
              sub-clause (B) of this Clause shall cease to have effect.

         (D)  (i)    The Company may from time to time (but subject always to
the provisions of this Trust Deed) without the consent of the Holders create and
issue further notes, bonds or debentures and/or Further Securities either
ranking pari passu with the Original Bonds in all respects (or in all respects
except for the first payment of interest on them) and so that such further issue
shall be consolidated and form a single series with the outstanding notes, bonds
or debentures and/or Further Securities of any series (including the Original
Bonds) constituted by this Trust Deed or any deed supplemental to it or upon
such terms as to interest, premium, redemption and otherwise as the Company may
determine at the time of their issue. Any further notes, bonds or debentures
and/or Further Securities forming a single series with the outstanding notes,
bonds or debentures and/or Further Securities of any series (including the
Original Bonds) constituted by this Trust Deed or any deed supplemental to it
shall, and any other notes, bonds or debentures and/or Further Securities may
(with the consent of the Trustee), be constituted by a deed supplemental to this
Trust Deed. In any such case the Company shall prior to the issue of any further
bonds or notes to be so constituted (being Further Securities) or as soon as
practicable thereafter execute and deliver to the Trustee a deed supplemental to
this Trust Deed (if applicable duly stamped or denoted).

              (ii)   A memorandum of every such supplemental deed shall be
endorsed by the Trustee on this Trust Deed and by the Company on the duplicate
of this Trust Deed.

         (E)  Any Further Securities not forming a single series with the
Original Bonds shall form a separate series and accordingly, unless for any
purpose the Trustee in its absolute discretion shall otherwise determine, the
provisions of sub-clauses (C), (D) and (E) of this Clause and of Clauses 4, 5,
7, 8, 9, 14 to 16 and 20 to 26 and the Third Schedule shall apply mutatis
mutandis separately and independently to the Securities of each series and in
such Clauses and Schedule the expression "Securities" and "Holders" shall be
construed accordingly.

         (B)  The Company shall procure (i) that the Principal Paying Agent

7.       Enforcement by the Trustee
         --------------------------

         (A)  At any time after the Securities shall have become immediately due

of the Holders or the Couponholders against the Company under the Securities,
the Coupons or these presents.

         (B)  Should the Trustee take proceedings against the Company in
accordance with sub-clause (A) of this Clause:

              (i)    proof therein that, as regards any Security, the Company
              has made default in paying any principal or premium or (where
              interest is payable against such Security) interest due in
              respect thereof shall (unless the contrary be proved) be

                                                                              15

              sufficient evidence that the Company has made the like default as
              regards all other Securities which are then due and repayable;
              and

              (ii)   proof therein that, as regards any specified Coupon, the
              Company has made default in paying any interest due in respect
              thereof shall (unless the contrary be proved) be sufficient
              evidence that the Company has made the like default as regards
              all other Coupons which are then due and payable.

         (C)  The Trustee shall not be bound to take any such proceedings as are
mentioned in sub-clause (A) of this Clause unless respectively directed or
requested to do so (i) by an Extraordinary Resolution or (ii) in writing by the
Holders of at least 20 per cent, of the principal amount of the Securities then
outstanding and in either case then only if it shall be indemnified to its
satisfaction against all actions, proceedings, claims and demands to which it
may thereby render itself liable and all costs, charges, damages and expenses
which it may incur by so doing.

         (D   No Holder or Couponholder shall be entitled to proceed directly
against the Company to enforce the performance of any of the provisions of these
presents or of the Securities or the Coupons unless the Trustee having become
bound as aforesaid to take proceedings fails to do so within a reasonable period
and such failure is continuing.

8.       Application of moneys by the Trustee
         ------------------------------------

         (A)  Without prejudice to the provisions of Clause 10, moneys received
by the Trustee in respect of amounts payable under the Securities, the Coupons

              Securities; and

              THIRDLY in payment of the balance (if any) to the Company.

         (B)  Without prejudice to the provisions of this Clause, if the Trustee
shall hold any moneys which represent principal, premium or interest in respect
of Securities or Coupons which have become void under Condition 9, the Trustee
shall (subject to payment or provision for the payment or satisfaction of the
said costs, charges, expenses and liabilities including the remuneration of the
Trustee) pay the same to the Company.

9.       Payments by the Trustee
         -----------------------

              The Trustee shall give or procure that there be given notice

made shall be a good discharge to the Trustee.

Clause 8 shall be less than 10 per cent. of the principal amount of the
Securities then outstanding the Trustee may at its discretion invest such moneys
in some or one of the investments hereinafter authorised with power from time to
time at the like discretion to vary such investments and such investments with
the resulting income therefrom may be accumulated until the accumulations
together with any other funds for the time being under the control of the
Trustee and available for such purpose shall amount to a sum being not less than
10 per cent. of the principal amount of the Securities then outstanding and then
such accumulations and funds shall be applied in manner aforesaid.

         (B)  Any moneys which under the trusts of these presents ought to or
may be invested by the Trustee may be invested in the name or under the control
of the Trustee in any of the investments for the time being authorised by
English law for the investment by trustees of trust moneys or in any other
investments whether similar to the aforesaid or not which may be selected by the
Trustee or by placing the same on deposit in the name or under the control of
the Trustee at such bank or other financial institution and in such currency as
the Trustee may think fit and the Trustee may at any time or times vary or
transpose any of such investments for or into other such investments or convert
any moneys so deposited into any other currency and shall not be responsible for
any loss occasioned thereby whether by depreciation in value, fluctuations in
exchange rates or otherwise resulting from any such investments or deposits.

11.      Enfacement of Securities and Coupons
         ------------------------------------

              Upon any payment under Clause 8 (other than payment in full

         single transaction or a series of transactions (whether related or
         not) if and to the extent that the value of the assets disposed of and
         failing to be taken into account pursuant to this Clause 13 when
         aggregated with the value of all such other disposals of assets by
         members of the Group would exceed 30 per cent. of the value of the
         total assets of the Group taken as a whole, provided that no disposal
         shall be taken into account for the purposes of this provision:

              (i)    if the disposal of assets (other than immovable property)
              is made in the ordinary course of business;

              (ii)   where the disposal is made by any member of the Group to
              another member of the Group;

              (iii)  if it is a disposal which the Trustee has determined under
              sub-paragraph (c) below shall not be taken into account;

              (iv)   where the disposal consists of an exchange of assets for
              other assets of a similar nature and value;

              (v)    if and to the extent that an aggregate amount equivalent to
              the proceeds of disposal of immovable property has, within a
              period of 12 months (or such longer period as the Trustee may
              agree) before or after such disposal, been applied in the
              acquisition or construction of or improvement to immovable
              property;

              (vi)   if and to the extent that an aggregate amount equivalent to
              the proceeds of disposal of fixed assets (other than immovable
              property) has, within a period of 12 months (or such longer
              period as the Trustee may agree) before or after such disposal,
              been applied in the acquisition or construction of or improvement
              to fixed assets or immovable property;

              (vii)  if and to the extent that an aggregate amount equivalent to
              the proceeds of disposal of current assets, has, within a period
              of 12 months (or such longer period as the Trustee may agree)
              before or after such disposal, been applied in the acquisition of
              any assets;

              (viii) where the assets (other than immovable property) disposed
              of comprise obsolete or obsolescent assets or temporary
              investments which are surplus to requirements; or

                                                                              18

              (ix)   where immovable property is disposed of in the normal
              course of development of the Group's business;

         (B)  For the purposes of the foregoing:

              (i)    the value of any assets disposed of shall be the value
              thereof as included in the Latest Consolidated Balance Sheet or,
              in the case of an asset which was not taken into account for the
              purposes thereof, its book value at the date of disposal;

              (ii)   the value of the assets of the Group taken as a whole shall
              be the aggregate value thereof shown in the Latest Consolidated
              Balance Sheet;

              (iii)  the expenditure of cash shall be deemed not to be a
              disposal of assets; cash arising from the claims for loss of or
              damage to immovable property shall, however, be deemed not to be
              cash but to be immovable property;

              (iv)   the repayment of borrowings or other indebtedness, the
              redemption of loan or share capital, the payment of a dividend in
              cash out of profits or reserves available for the purpose and the
              temporary application of surplus funds to purchase marketable
              securities which are subsequently disposed of (and all expenses
              incurred in connection with such disposal) shall be deemed not to
              be a disposal of assets;

              (v)    if any shares in a relevant company are disposed of or
              acquired there shall be deemed to have been a disposal or
              acquisition not of such shares but of the underlying assets. For
              this purpose:

                     (a)   "relevant company" means a company which is a
                     Subsidiary at the relevant time;

                     (b)   "underlying assets" means those proportions of the
                     assets of the relevant company and of any companies which
                     are subsidiaries of it (other than assets which would be
                     eliminated on consolidation if a consolidated balance sheet
                     of the Group were prepared) which correspond to the
                     proportion of the equity share capital of the company
                     concerned in which the Company is (directly or through
                     Subsidiaries) interested (all as at the relevant time); and

                     (c)   "relevant time" means in the case of an acquisition
                     immediately after such acquisition and in the case of a
                     disposal immediately before such disposal;

              (vi)   references to the proceeds of disposal of assets shall be
              taken to refer to the net proceeds after allowing for taxation
              payable by reason of the disposal and all expenses incurred in
              connection with such disposal.

                                                                              19

              (vii)  "disposal" includes sale, transfer or assignment but shall
              not include an assignment by way of security or the creation of
              any other security interest, and "dispose" shall be construed
              accordingly;

         (C)  The Trustee may at any time, without the consent or sanction of
         the Original Bondholders, consent to any disposal or determine that
         any disposals made or intended to be made shall not be taken into
         account.

have been approved by an Extraordinary Resolution. One or more persons may hold
office as trustee or trustees of these presents but such trustee or trustees
shall be or include a Trust Corporation. Whenever there shall be more than two
trustees of these presents the majority of such trustees shall be competent to
execute and exercise all the duties, powers, trusts, authorities and discretions
vested in the Trustee by these presents PROVIDED THAT a Trust Corporation shall
be included in such majority.

         (B)  Notwithstanding the provisions of sub-clause (A) of this Clause,
the Trustee may, upon giving prior notice to the Company (but without the
consent of the Company or the Holders) appoint any person established or
resident in any jurisdiction (whether a Trust Corporation or not) to act either
as a separate trustee or as a co-trustee jointly with the Trustee (i) if the
Trustee considers such appointment to be in the interests of the Holders, (ii)
for the purposes of conforming to any legal requirements, restrictions or
conditions in any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts is or are to
be performed or (iii) for the purposes of obtaining a judgment in any
jurisdiction or the enforcement in any jurisdiction of either a judgment already
obtained or any of the previsions of these presents against the Company. The
Company hereby irrevocably appoints the Trustee to be its attorney in its name
and on its behalf to execute any such instrument of appointment. Such a person
shall (subject always to the provisions of these presents) have such trust,
powers, authorities and discretions (not exceeding those conferred on the
Trustee by these presents) and such duties and obligations as shall be conferred
or imposed by the instrument of appointment. The Trustee shall have power in
like manner to remove any such person. Such reasonable remuneration as the
Trustee may pay to any such person, together with any attributable costs,
charges and expenses properly incurred by it in performing its function as such
separate trustee or co-trustee shall for the purposes of these presents be
treated as costs, charges and expenses incurred by the Trustee.

         (C)  Any appointment of a new trustee of these presents shall as soon
as practicable thereafter be notified by the Company to the Principal Paying
Agent and the Holders.

26.      Retirement of the Trustee
         -------------------------

              A trustee of these presents may retire at any time on giving
not less than three months' prior written notice to the Company without
assigning any reason and without being responsible for any costs occasioned by
such retirement. The Holders shall have the power exercisable by Extraordinary
Resolution to remove any trustee or trustees for the time being of these
presents. The Company undertakes that in the event of the only trustee hereof
which is a Trust Corporation giving notice under this Clause or being removed by
Extraordinary Resolution it will use its best endeavours to procure a new
trustee of these presents being a Trust Corporation to be appointed. The
retirement or removal of any such trustee shall not become effective until a
successor trustee being a Trust Corporation is appointed.

                                                                              32

27.      Powers of the Trustee to be additional
         --------------------------------------

Trustee by the general law or as a holder of any of the Securities or Coupons.

The (pound)100,000,000 10 7/8 per cent. Bonds Due 2020 (the "Bonds") of Lucas
Industries plc (the "Company") are constituted by a trust deed (the "Trust
Deed") dated 10 January 1989 between the Company and The Law Debenture Trust
Corporation p.l.c. (the "Trustee") as trustee for the holders of the Bonds (the
"Bondholders"). The issue of the Bonds was authorised by a resolution of the
Board of Directors of the Company passed on 12 December 1988 and a resolution of
a duly constituted committee of the Board of Directors of the Company passed on
13 December 1988. The statements in these Terms and Conditions include summaries
of, and are subject to, the detailed provisions of the Trust Deed, which
includes the form of the Bonds and the coupons appertaining to the Bonds (the
"Coupons"). Copies of the Trust Deed and the paying agency agreement dated 10
January 1989 (the "Paying Agency Agreement") appointing the paying agents (the
"Paying Agents") are available for inspection at the principal office of the
Trustee, being at the date hereof, Princes House, 95 Gresham Street, London EC2V
7LY and at the specified office of each of the Paying Agents. The Bondholders
and the holders of the Coupons (the "Couponholders") are entitled to the benefit
of, are bound by, and are deemed to have notice of, all the provisions contained
in the Trust Deed.

1.    STATUS, FORM, DENOMINATION AND TRANSFER

The Bonds are in bear form, serially numbered, in denominations of (pound)10,000
and (pound)100,000 each. The Bonds are unsecured obligations of the Company,
ranking pari passu without any preference or priority among themselves and
equally with all other existing and future unsecured obligations of the Company,
other than any subordinated or statutorily preferred obligations. Title to the
Bonds and the Coupons will pass by delivery. Except as required by law, any
person may deem and treat the bearer of any Bond or Coupon as the absolute owner
thereof (notwithstanding any notice of ownership or writing thereon or any
notice of previous loss or theft or other interest therein). The holder of each
Coupon, whether or not the Coupon is attached to a Bond, in his capacity as such
shall be subject to and bound by all the provisions contained in the relevant
Bond.

2.    INTEREST

The Bonds bear interest from 10 January 1989 at the rate of 10 7/8 per cent. per
annum, payable annually in arrear on 10 July in each year, except that the first
payment of interest, to be made on 10 July 1989, will be in respect of the
period from 10 January 1989 to 10 July 1989 and will amount to (pound)543.75 per
(pound)10,000 nominal amount of a Bond. For this purpose Coupons are attached to
the Bonds at the date of issue and interest due on each 10 July will be paid
against surrender of the appropriate Coupon in accordance with the provisions of
Condition 6; provided that if the due date for redemption of any Bond is not a
date for payment of interest or if payment of principal is improperly withheld
or refused in respect of such Bond or if default is otherwise made in respect of
any such payment, interest accrued in respect of such Bond from (and including)
the date for payment of interest being or last preceding the relevant date (as
defined in Condition 7) for the payment of such Bond (or, if such date for
payment falls before 10 July 1989, from 10 January 1989) will be paid against
presentation and endorsement or (as the case may be) surrender of such Bond.
When interest is required to be calculated for a period of less

                                                                              42

than one year, it will be calculated on the basis of 360-day year consisting of
12 months of 30 days each and, in the case of an uncompleted month, the number
of days elapsed.

The Bonds will cease to bear interest from the due date for redemption therefor
unless, upon due presentation thereof, payment of principal is improperly
withheld or refused.

3.    RESTRICTIONS ON BORROWINGS

The Company will procure that for so long as any of the Bonds remains
outstanding (as defined in the Trust Deed) the aggregate principal amount
(together with any fixed or minimum premium payable on final repayment) for the
time being outstanding in respect of:

          (a)   all Borrowings (other than those for the time being owing to and
          the right to repayment of which is beneficially owned by a member of
          the Group) shall not at any time exceed 175 per cent. of the Adjusted
          Capital and Reserves; and

          (b)   all Secured Borrowings (other than those for the time being
          owing to and the right to repayment of which is beneficially owned by
          a member of the Group) shall not at any time exceed 50 per cent. of
          the Adjusted Capital and Reserves.

4.    RESTRICTION ON THE DISPOSAL OF ASSETS

          (a)   So long as any of the Bonds remains outstanding, the Company
will not, and will ____________ none of the Subsidiaries shall, dispose of the
whole or any part of its assets whether by _______ transaction or a series of
transactions (whether related or not) if and to the extent that the value of the
assets disposed of and failing to be taken into account pursuant to this
Condition 4 when aggregated with the value of all such other disposals of assets
by members of the Group would exceed 30 per cent of the value of the total
assets of the Group taken as a whole, provided that no disposal shall be taken
into account for the purposes of this provision:

                (i)    if the disposal of assets (other than immovable property)
                       is made in the ordinary course of business;

                       another member of the Group;

                (iii)  if it is a disposal which the Trustee has determined
                       under sub-paragraph (c) below shall not be taken into
                       account;

                (iv)   where the disposal consists of an exchange of assets for
                       other assets of a similar nature and value;

                (v)    if and to the extent that an aggregate amount equivalent
                       to the proceeds of disposal of immovable property has,

                       been applied in the acquisition or construction of or
                       improvement to immovable property;

                                                                              43

                (vi)   if and to the extent that an aggregate amount equivalent
                       to the proceeds of disposal of fund assets (other than
                       immovable property) has, within a period of 12 months (or
                       such longer period as the Trustee may agree) before or
                       after such disposal, been applied in the acquisition or
                       construction of or improvement to fixed assets or
                       immovable property;

                (vii)  if and to the extent that an aggregate amount equivalent
                       to the proceeds of disposal of current assets has, within
                       a period of 12 months (or such longer period as the
                       Trustee may agree) before or after such disposal been
                       applied in the acquisition of any assets;

                (viii) where the assets (other than immovable property) disposed
                       of comprise obsolete or obsolescent assets or temporary
                       investments which are surplus to requirements; or

                (ix)   where immovable property is disposed of in the normal
                       course of development of the Group's business.

      (b) For the purpose of the foregoing:

                (i)    the value of any assets disposed of shall be the value
                       thereof as included in the Latest Consolidated Balance
                       Sheet or, in the case of an asset which was not taken
                       into account for the purposes thereof, its book value at
                       the date of disposal;

                (ii)   the value of the total assets of the Group taken as a
                       whole shall be the aggregate value thereof shown in the
                       Latest Consolidated Balance Sheet;

                (iii)  the expenditure of cash shall be deemed not to be a
                       disposal of assets; cash arising from claims for loss of
                       or damage to immovable property shall, however, be deemed

                       connection with such disposal) shall be deemed not to be
                       a disposal of assets;

                (v)    if any shares is a relevant company are disposed of or
                       acquired there shall be deemed to have been a disposal or
                       acquisition not of such shares but or the underlying
                       assets. For this purpose:

                            Satisfactory at the relevant time;

                       (B)  "underlying assets" means those proportions of the

                            of it (other than assets which would be eliminated
                            on consolidation if a consolidated balance sheet of
                            the Group were prepared) which correspond to the
                            proportion of the equity share capital of the
                            company concerned in which the Company is (directly
                            or through Subsidiaries) interested (all as at the

                            of disposal immediately before such disposal;

                (vi)   references to the proceeds of disposal of assets shall be

                       shall not include an assignment by way of security or the
                       creation of any other security interest, and "dispose"
                       shall be construed accordingly.

          (c)   The Trustee may at any time, without the consent or sanction of
the Bondholders, consent to say disposal or determine that any disposals made or
intended to be made shall not be taken into account.

amount on 10 July 2020.

          (b)   Redemption at the option of the Company -- The Company may, on
or after 10 January 1994 (or such earlier date as the Bank of England may permit
as more specifically set out in the Trust Deed), having given not more than 60
nor less than 30 days' notice in accordance with Condition 13, redeem the whole
or part (in the principal amount of (pound)10,000,000 or integral multiples
thereof) of the Bonds at a redemption price which shall be the higher of the
following, together with internet accrued to the date fixed for redemption:

                (i)    par, and

                (ii)   that price, expected at a percentage (rounded to three
                       decimal places, 0.0005 being rounded upwards), at which
                       the Gross Redemption Yield on the Bonds, if they were to
                       be purchased at such price on the third dealing dry prior
                       to the due date for redemption, would be equal to the
                       Gross Redemption Yield on such dealing day of 12 per
                       cent. Exchanger Stock 2013/2017 or of such other United

                       to be appropriate (the "Reference Stock") on the basis of

                       at 11.00 a.m. (London time) on such dealing day, as
                       determined by J. Henry Schroder Wagg & Co. Limited (or
                       such other person as the Trustee may approve). Any

                                                                              45

                       references in these Terms and Conditions to principal
                       shall be deemed to include any such payable as the
                       redemption price pursuant to this Condition 5(b).

The "Gross Redemption" Yield on the Bonds and on the Reference Stock will be
expressed as a percentage and will be calculated on the basis indicated by the
Joint Index and Classification Committee of the Institute and Faculty of
Actuaries as reported in the Journal of the Institute of Actuaries, Vol. 105.

redemption price and, in the case of partial redemption, the serial members of
Bonds called for redemption, the serial numbers of Bonds previously called for
redemption and not presented for payment and the aggregate principal amount of
the Bonds to remain outstanding after the redemption. Upon the expiry of any
notice of redemption the Company shall be bound to redeem the Bonds called for
redemption at the applicable redemption price. In the case of partial
redemption, Bonds to be redeemed will be drawn for redemption at such place and
individually by lot or otherwise in such manner as may be approved by the
Trustee.

          (c)   Redemption for taxation records -- If the Company at any time
satisfies the Trustee that, as a result of any change in or amendments to the
laws or regulations of the United Kingdom or any authority thereof or thereto or
in the official or judicial interpretation or application of any such laws or
regulation since 22 December 1983, on that next due date for payment of interest
in respect of the Bonds, the Company would be required to pay any additional
amounts in accordance with Condition 7, the Company may, having given not more
than 60 nor less than 30 days' prior notice to the Trustee and the Bondholders,
redeem all, but not some only, of the Bonds at their principal amount, together
with interest accrued to the date fixed for redemption. Upon the expiry of such
notice of redemption the Company shall be bound so to redeem the Bonds.

          (d)   Purchases -- The Company or any Subsidiary may (subject as
provided below) at any time purchase Bonds in any manner at prices (exclusive of
expenses and accrued interest) not exceeding (i) in the case of a purchase by
tender, the average of the middle market quotations of the Bonds derived from
The Daily Official List of The International Stock Exchange of the United
Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland Limited ("The Stock Exchange") for the ten

forthwith, together with all unmatured Coupons relating thereto and surrendered
therewith, and may not be resold or reissued.

6.    PAYMENTS

Payments of principal and/or interest in respect of Bonds shall be made against
surrender of Bonds, in the case of interest payments due on 10 July in any year,
Coupons. Such payment will be made at any specified office of any Paying Agent
by sterling cheque drawn on, or, at the option of the holder, wire transfer to a
sterling account maintained by the payee with, a Town Clearing branch of a bank
in London, subject to any fiscal or other laws and regulations applicable
thereon, but without prejudice and the provisions set out in Condition 7.

Bonds should be presented for payment together with all unmatured Coupons,
failing which the amount of any missing unmatured Coupon (or, in the case of
payment not being made in full, that proportion of the amount of such missing
unmatured Coupon which the sum of principal so paid _______ to the total
principal amount due) will be deducted from the sum due for payment. Any amount
of principal so deducted will be paid in the manner mentioned above against
surrender of the _________ missing Coupon during the period of 12 years next
following the relevant date for the payment of such principal, whether or not
such Coupon shall have become void pursuant to Condition 9, or if ____ six years
from the date for payment stated on such Coupon. If the due date for redemption
of any Bond is not 10 July in any year, the interest accrued from the preceding
10 July (or, if the due date for redemption falls before 10 July 1989 from 10
January 1989) shall be payable only against presentation of the relevant Bond at
the specified office of any of the Paying Agents as provided above.

If the due date for payment of any amount of principal or interest in respect of
any Bond or Coupon is not a day on which banks are open for business in the
place where the relevant Bond or Coupon (as the case may be) is presented for
payment and, in the case of a payment by transfer to a sterling account in
London, then the holder thereof shall not be entitled to payment of the amount
due until the next following such day nor to any further interest or other
payment in respect of such delay.

The names of the initial Principal and other Paying Agents are set out at the
end of these Terms and Conditions. The Company reserves the right, subject to
the approval of the Trustee, at any time to void or terminate the appointment of
any Paying Agent and to appoint other or further Paying Agents, provided that it
will at all times maintain a Paying Agent with a specified office in continental
Europe and, so long as the Bonds are listed on The Stock Exchange, a Paying
Agent with a specified office in London. Notice of any such termination or
appointment and of any changes in the specified offices of the Paying Agents
will be given by the Company to the Bondholders in accordance with Condition 13.

7.    TAXATION

All payments of principal and interest will be made without withholding or
deduction for, or on account of, any present or future taxes, duties,
assessments or governmental charges of nature imposed or levied by or on behalf
of the United Kingdom or any authority thereof or therein having power to tax,
unless the Company is required by law to withhold or deduct amounts for,

                                                                              47

or on account of, such taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges. In
that event, the Company will pay such additional amounts as will be necessary in
order that the met amounts received by the Bondholders and/or Couponholders
after such withholding or deduction shall equal the respective amounts of
principal and interest which would otherwise have been receivable in respect
thereof in the absence of such withholding or deduction, except that no such
additional amounts shall be payable with respect to any Bond or Coupon presented
for payment:

          (a)   by or on behalf of a holder who is liable to such taxes, duties,
assessments or governmental charges by reason of his being connected with the
United Kingdom otherwise then by the mere holding of such Bond or Coupon; or

          (b)   in the United Kingdom(1), or

          (c)   more than 30 days after the relevant date except to the extent
that the holder thereof would have been entitled to such additional amounts on
presenting the same for payment on the last day of such period.

As used herein, the "relevant date" in respect of any Bond or Coupon means the
date on which payment in respect thereof first becomes due or (if the full
amount of the moneys payable has not been received by the Principal Paying Agent
or the Trustee on or prior to such due date the date on which notice is duly
given to the Bondholders in accordance with Condition 13 that such moneys have
been so received and are available for payment.

References herein to principal and interest shall be deemed to include any
additional amounts which may be payable under the obligations referred to in
this Condition or any obligations undertaken in addition thereto or in
substitution therefor pursuant to the Trust Deed.

8.    REPAYMENT IN EVENT OF DEFAULT

The Trustee at its discretion may, and if so requested in writing by the holders
of not less than 20 per cent in principal amount of the Bonds then outstanding
or if so directed by an Extraordinary Resolution of the Bondholders shall, by
written notice to the Company declare the Bonds to be, and upon such
declaration, the Bonds shall immediately become, due and repayable at their
principal account, together with accrued interest (as provided in the Trust
Deed), upon the happening of any of the following events:

          (a)   default being made for a period of seven business days in any
payment of principal of any of the Bonds for a period of 15 business days in any
payment of interest in respect of any of the Bonds; or

          (b)   the Company failing to perform or observe any of its other
obligations under the Bonds or the Trust Deed (except where the Trustee
considers such default to be incapable of remedy when no notice will be
required) such failure constituting for the period of 30 days (or such longer
period as the Trustee may permit) next following the service by the Trustee on
the Company of notice requiring the same to be remedies; or

meeting or adjourned meeting proceeds to business. A certified copy of each
block voting instruction shall be deposited with the Trustee before the
commencement of the meeting or adjourned meeting but the Trustee shall not
thereby be obliged to investigate or be concerned with the validity of or the
authority of the proxies named in any such block voting instruction.

17.   Any vote given in accordance with the terms of a block voting instruction
shall be valid notwithstanding the previous revocation or amendment of the block
voting instruction or of any of the Holders' instructions pursuant to which it
was executed PROVIDED THAT no imitation in writing of such revocation or
amendment shall have been received from the relevant Paying Agent by the Company
at its registered office (or such other place as may have been approved by the
Trustee for the purpose) by the time being 48 hours before the time appointed
for holding the meeting or adjourned meeting at which the block voting
instruction is to be used.

         (C)  Power to assent to any modification of the provisions contained in
         these presents or the Conditions, the Securities or the Coupons which

22.   Subject to all other provisions contained in these presents the Trustee
may with the consent of the Company, but without the consent of the Holders or
the Couponholders, prescribe such further regulations regarding the
requisitioning and/or the holding of meetings of Holders and attendance and
voting thereat as the Trustee may in its sole discretion think fit.

23.      (1)  If and whenever the Company shall have issued and have outstanding
any Securities which are not identical and do not form one single series then
those Securities which are in all respects identical shall be deemed to
constitute a separate series of the Securities and the foregoing provisions of
this Schedule shall have effect subject to the following modifications:

         (a)  a resolution which in the opinion of the Trustee affects one
         series only of the Securities shall be deemed to have been duly passed
         if passed at a separate meeting of the holders of Securities of that
         series;

         (b)  a resolution which in the opinion of the Trustee affects more than
         one series of the Securities but does not give rise to a conflict of
         interest between the holders of Securities of any of the series so
         affected shall be deemed to have been duly passed if passed at a
         single meeting of the holders of the Securities of all the series so
         affected;

         (c)  a resolution which in the opinion of the Trustee affects more than
         one series of the Securities and gives or may give rise to a conflict
         of interest between the Holders of the Securities of one series or
         group of series so affected and the Holders of the Securities of
         another series or group of series so affected shall be deemed to have
         been duly passed only if in lieu of being passed at a single meeting
         of the Holders of the Securities of all such series it shall be duly
         passed at separate meetings of the Holders of the Securities of each
         series or group of series so affected; and

         (d)  to all such meetings as aforesaid all the preceding provisions of
         this Schedule shall mutatis mutandis apply as though references
         therein to Securities and Holders were references to be Securities of
         the series or group of series in question and to the Holders of such
         Securities respectively.

         (2)  If the Company shall have issued and have outstanding Securities
which are not denominated in pounds sterling, in the case of meetings of Holders
of Securities of more than one currency the principal amount of such Securities
not so denominated shall (i) for the purpose of paragraph (1) above be
equivalent in pounds sterling at the spot rate of a bank nominated by the
Trustee for the conversion of the relevant currency or currencies into pounds
sterling on the seventh dealing day prior to the day on which notice in writing
is received by the Trustee and (ii) for the purposes of paragraphs 5, 6, 9 and
24 above (whether in respect of the meeting, or any adjourned such meeting or
any poll resulting therefrom) be the equivalent in pounds sterling at such spot
rate on the seventh dealing day prior to the day of such meeting or, if
applicable, of the taking of such poll. The number of votes exercisable by each
Holder shall be adjusted in such manner as the Trustee may determine to ensure
that each Holder has, so far as the Trustee considers reasonably practicable,
votes which fairly reflect the sterling equivalent of the principal amount of
Securities held by him.

                                                                              67
