                       AMENDMENT NO. 6 TO CREDIT AGREEMENT

                  AMENDMENT NO. 6 TO CREDIT AGREEMENT (this "Amendment"), dated
as of November 3, 2003 among BRIGHTPOINT NORTH AMERICA L.P., a Delaware limited
partnership ("Brightpoint"), and WIRELESS FULFILLMENT SERVICES LLC, a California
limited liability company ("Wireless", together with Brightpoint, the
"Borrowers"), the other Credit Parties signatory to the hereinafter defined
Credit Agreement; GENERAL ELECTRIC CAPITAL CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation
(in its individual capacity, "GE Capital"), for itself, as Lender, and as Agent
for Lenders ("Agent"), and the other Lenders signatory to the hereinafter
defined Credit Agreement.

                              W I T N E S S E T H :

                  WHEREAS, the Borrowers, the other Credit Parties, Agent and
Lenders are party to that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of October 31, 2001
(as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the
"Credit Agreement");

                  WHEREAS, on and subject to the terms and conditions hereof,
the Borrowers and the other Credit Parties have requested that Agent and
Lenders, and Agent and Lenders are willing to amend certain provisions of the
Credit Agreement, all as set forth herein; and

                  WHEREAS, this Amendment shall constitute a Loan Document and
these Recitals shall be construed as part of this Amendment; capitalized terms
used herein without definition are so used as defined in Annex A to the Credit
Agreement.

                  NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the
mutual covenants contained herein, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

                  1.       Amendments to Credit Agreement. Section 6.14 to the
Credit Agreement is amended as follows:

                  (a)      By deleting the number "$10,000,000" in clause (vi)
to the proviso at the conclusion of the first sentence therein and replacing
such number with the number "$20,000,000"; and

                  (b)      By deleting each reference to the number
"$10,000,000" in the second sentence therein and replacing each such reference
with the number "$20,000,000".

                  2.       Representations and Warranties of Credit Parties. In
order to induce Agent and Lenders to enter into this Amendment, each Credit
Party hereby jointly and severally represents and warrants to Agent and Lenders
that:

                  (a)      Representations and Warranties. After giving effect
to this Amendment, no representation or warranty of any Credit Party contained
in the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, including this
Amendment, shall be untrue or incorrect in any material respect as of the date
hereof, except to the extent that such representation or warranty expressly
relates to an earlier date.

<PAGE>

                  (b)      Authorization, etc. Each Credit Party has the power
and authority to execute, deliver and perform this Amendment. Each Credit Party
has taken all necessary action (including, without limitation, obtaining
approval of its stockholders, if necessary) to authorize its execution, delivery
and performance of this Amendment. No consent, approval or authorization of, or
declaration or filing with, any Governmental Authority, and no consent of any
other Person, is required in connection with any Credit Party's execution,
delivery and performance of this Amendment, except for those already duly
obtained. This Amendment has been duly executed and delivered by each Credit
Party and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of each Credit
Party, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms. No Credit Party's
execution, delivery or performance of this Amendment conflicts with, or
constitutes a violation or breach of, or constitutes a default under, or results
in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon the property of any Credit Party
by reason of the terms of (i) any contract, mortgage, lease, agreement,
indenture or instrument to which any Credit Party is a party or which is binding
upon it, (ii) any law or regulation or order or decree of any court applicable
to any Credit Party, or (iii) the certificate or articles of incorporation or
by-laws of any Credit Party.

                  (c)      No Default. No Default or Event of Default has
occurred or is continuing, or would result after giving effect hereto.

                  3.       Conditions to Effectiveness. The effectiveness of
this Amendment is expressly conditioned upon the satisfaction, and delivery to
Agent (on behalf of itself and Lenders), of each condition set forth in this
Section 3 on or prior to the date hereof:

                  (a)      Documentation. Duly executed originals of this
Amendment from each Credit Party and from Requisite Lenders.

                  (b)      Other Documents. All other agreements, certificates
and other documents as Agent may reasonably request to accomplish the purposes
of this Amendment.

                  4.       Reference to and Effect on Loan Documents.

                  (a)      Ratification. Except as specifically provided in this
Amendment, the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall remain in
full force and effect and each Credit Party hereby ratifies and confirms each
such Loan Document.

                  (b)      No Waiver. Except as specifically provided in this
Amendment, the execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Amendment shall not
operate as a waiver or forbearance of any right, power or remedy of Agent or any
Lender under the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or
constitute a consent, waiver or modification with respect to any provision of
the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. Upon the effectiveness
of this Amendment each reference in (a) the Credit Agreement to "this
Agreement," "hereunder," "hereof," or words of similar import and (b) any other
Loan Document to "the Agreement" shall, in each case and except as otherwise
specifically stated therein, mean and be a reference to the Credit Agreement as
amended hereby.

                  5.       Affirmation of Guarantors. By its signature set forth
below, each Guarantor hereby confirms to Agent and Lenders that, after giving
effect to the foregoing

                                      -2-
<PAGE>

Amendment and the transactions contemplated thereby, the Guaranty of such
Guarantor and each other Loan Document to which such Guarantor is a party
continues in full force and effect and is the legal, valid and binding
obligation of such Guarantor, enforceable against such Guarantor in accordance
with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors'
rights generally or by equitable principles relating to enforceability.

                  6.       Miscellaneous.

                  (a)      Successors and Assigns. This Amendment shall be
binding on and shall inure to the benefit of the Credit Parties, Agent and
Lenders and their respective successors and assigns, except as otherwise
provided herein. No Credit Party may assign, transfer, hypothecate or otherwise
convey its rights, benefits, obligations or duties hereunder without the prior
express written consent of Agent and Lenders. The terms and provisions of this
Amendment are for the purpose of defining the relative rights and obligations of
the Credit Parties, Agent and Lenders with respect to the transactions
contemplated hereby and there shall be no third party beneficiaries of any of
the terms and provisions of this Amendment.

                  (b)      Entire Agreement. This Amendment, including all
schedules and other documents attached hereto or incorporated by reference
herein or delivered in connection herewith, constitutes the entire agreement of
the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all other
understandings, oral or written, with respect to the subject matter hereof.

                  (c)      Fees and Expenses. As provided in Section 11.3 of the
Credit Agreement, the Borrowers agree to pay on demand all fees, costs and
expenses incurred by Agent in connection with the preparation, execution and
delivery of this Amendment.

                  (d)      Headings. Section headings in this Amendment are
included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a
part of this Amendment for any other purpose.

                  (e)      Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of
this Amendment shall be interpreted in such a manner as to be effective and
valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Amendment shall be
prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be
ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without
invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this
Amendment.

                  (f)      Conflict of Terms. Except as otherwise provided in
this Amendment, if any provision contained in this Amendment is in conflict
with, or inconsistent with, any provision in any of the other Loan Documents,
the provision contained in this Amendment shall govern and control.

                  (g)      Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in any
number of separate counterparts, each of which shall collectively and separately
constitute one agreement. Delivery of an executed signature page to this
Amendment by telecopy shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed
signature page to this Amendment.

                  (h)      Incorporation of Credit Agreement. The provisions
contained in Sections 11.9 and 11.13 of the Credit Agreement are incorporated
herein by reference to the same extent as if reproduced herein in their
entirety, except with reference to this Amendment rather than the Credit
Agreement.

                  (i)      Acknowledgment. Each Credit Party hereby acknowledges
its status as a Credit Party and affirms its obligations under the Credit
Agreement and represents and warrants that there are no liabilities, claims,
suits, debts, liens, losses, causes of action, demands, rights, damages or
costs, or expenses of any kind, character or nature whatsoever, known or
unknown, fixed or contingent (collectively, the "Claims"), which any Credit
Party may have or claim to have against Agent or any Lender, or any of their
respective affiliates, agents, employees, officers, directors, representatives,
attorneys, successors and assigns (collectively, the "Lender Released Parties"),
which might arise out of or be connected with any act of commission or omission
of the Lender Released Parties existing or occurring on or prior to the date of
this Amendment, including, without limitation, any Claims arising with respect
to the Obligations or any Loan Documents. In furtherance of the foregoing, each
Credit Party hereby releases, acquits and forever discharges the Lender Released
Parties from any and all Claims that any Credit Party may have or claim to have,
relating to or arising out of or in connection with the Obligations or any Loan
Documents or any other agreement or transaction contemplated thereby or any
action taken in connection therewith from the beginning of time up to and
including the date of the execution and delivery of this Amendment. Each Credit
Party further agrees forever to refrain from commencing, instituting or
prosecuting any lawsuit, action or other proceeding against any Lender Released
Parties with respect to any and all Claims which might arise out of or be
connected with any act of commission or omission of the Lender Released Parties
existing or occurring on or prior to the date of this Amendment, including,
without limitation, any Claims arising with respect to the Obligations or any
Loan Documents.

         any time must not exceed the lesser of:

         (a)      the facility limit; or

         (b)      the aggregate borrowing base at that time.

3.2      If the total of the current drawings and letter of credit liability
         exceeds the limits set out in clause 3.1 the company agrees to
         immediately repay to GE Capital so much of the current drawings or
         cancel or repay a letter of credit equal to the excess of the limits
         set out in clause 3.1.

4.       INTEREST

INTERPRETATION

4.1      In this clause 4, references to the company in respect of a current
         drawing are references to the company in whose name the current drawing
         is made.

INTEREST CHARGES

4.2      The company agrees to pay interest on the daily balance of each current
         drawing. The interest charge for each day is calculated by applying the
         interest rate to the daily balance of the current drawing on the basis
         of a 360 day year. The interest rate for any day will be determined on
         the first business day of the calendar month in which the day falls.

INTEREST PAYMENT

4.3      On each interest payment date the company agrees to pay GE Capital the
         interest which has accrued from and including the first day of the
         calendar month of the preceding month up to and including the last day
         of that calendar month.

5.       PAYMENTS

REPAYMENT

5.1      The company agrees to pay to GE Capital all cash receipts, by way of
         deposit into a controlled account. To the extent not already paid, the
         company agrees to repay to GE Capital the total of the current drawings
         on the maturity date.

PREPAYMENT

5.2      The company may prepay, without penalty or premium (but subject to
         clause 7) a current drawing at any time and from time to time. The
         facility limit is not reduced by the amounts prepaid under this clause
         5.2.

<PAGE>

MANNER OF PAYMENT

5.3      The obligor agrees to make payments under each transaction document to
         GE Capital on the due date (or, if that is not a business day, on the
         next business day) in New Zealand dollars in immediately available
         funds without set-off or counterclaim and without any deduction in
         respect of taxes (unless prohibited by law) into the account nominated
         by GE Capital. The obligor satisfies a payment obligation only when GE
         Capital receives the amount.

PAYMENT APPLICATION

5.4      A payment under a transaction document will be applied by GE Capital on
         the same business day it is actually received by GE Capital in the
         account nominated by GE Capital only for the purpose of calculating
         interest.

<PAGE>

CONVERSION OF CURRENCY

5.5      All payments by the obligors under this agreement must be made in New
         Zealand dollars. If GE Capital receives an amount in a currency other
         than New Zealand dollars:

         (a)      it may convert the amount received into New Zealand dollars
                  (even though it may be necessary to convert through a third
                  currency to do so) on the day and at the rates (including spot
                  rate, same day value rate or value tomorrow rate) as it
                  considers appropriate (acting reasonably). It may deduct its
                  usual costs in connection with the conversion in calculating
                  the amount payable; and

         (b)      the obligor satisfies its obligation to pay in New Zealand
                  dollars only to the extent of the amount of New Zealand
                  dollars obtained from the conversion after deducting the costs
                  of the conversion.

5.6      Where GE Capital is obliged to make a payment under this agreement in a
         currency other than New Zealand dollars, the obligor must reimburse GE
         Capital for that payment in New Zealand dollars unless GE Capital
         specifies otherwise. For the purpose of calculating the amount payable
         in New Zealand dollars, GE Capital may:

         (a)      convert the amount payable into New Zealand dollars (even
                  though it may be necessary to convert through a third currency
                  to do so) on the day and at the rates (including spot rate,
                  same day value rate or value tomorrow rate) as it considers
                  appropriate (acting reasonably). It may add its usual costs in
                  connection with the conversion in calculating the amount
                  payable; and

         (b)      the obligor satisfies its obligation to make any payment under
                  this agreement only to the extent that the moneys received by
                  GE Capital are sufficient to pay the liability in the other
                  currency including the costs of the conversion to that
                  currency.

APPLICATION OF PAYMENTS

5.7      GE Capital will apply amounts paid by the obligor or on its behalf
         and/or to GE Capital from any controlled account, towards:

         (a)      satisfying obligations under the transaction documents in the
                  manner GE Capital sees fit, unless the transaction documents
                  expressly provide otherwise; and

         (b)      satisfying any money owed by the obligor to any related entity
                  of GE Capital.

5.8      If there are no current drawings payable or to become payable in the
         future by the obligor to GE Capital or any of its related entities, GE
         Capital will at the written direction of the company, apply amounts
         paid by the obligor or on its behalf to an account of the company
         nominated by the company.

5.9      Once the facility has terminated (either through the effluxion of time
         or otherwise) and all current drawings and other money due and owing to
         GE Capital have been repaid, GE Capital will promptly direct the bank
         that maintains the blocked account to transfer any credit balance in
         the blocked account to an account nominated be the company.

6.       CANCELLATION

<PAGE>

6.1      The company may cancel or terminate the facility. It may do this if the
         company gives GE Capital at least 20 business days notice in writing.
         Once given, the notice is irrevocable. When the cancellation or
         termination takes effect, the total of the current drawings and all
         other amounts payable or to become payable in the future under the
         transaction documents are immediately due and payable including without
         limitation the early termination fee.

7.       FEES

FEES

7.1      The company agrees to pay GE Capital:

         (a)      the closing fee on the first drawdown date under this
                  agreement;

         (b)      the unused facility fee payable monthly in arrears on the
                  first business day of each month and on the maturity date

                  (i)      the standby letter of credit fee as specified in the

                           of a 360 day year, and the actual number of days
                           elapsed in that month);

                  (ii)     the trade letter of credit fee as specified in the
                           Details payable at the end of the month of
                           establishment, amendment or extension as is
                           applicable;

                  (iii)    the term letter of credit fee as specified in the
                           Details payable on the maturity date of each drawing
                           made under a term letter of credit;

                  (iv)     all charges incurred by GE Capital from the issuing
                           bank plus any other fee required to be paid by GE
                           Capital for amendments, variations or roll-overs of
                           any letter of credit;

         (d)      the field examination fee on completion of any field
                  examination after the date of this agreement (to be completed
                  no more than quarterly except in the case of an event of
                  default), the amount of which will be notified by GE Capital
                  to the company by way of debit from the company's loan account
                  plus all out of pocket expenses incurred by GE Capital in
                  conducting the field examination;

         (e)      subject to the other terms of this agreement, the early
                  termination fee on the date on which the facility is cancelled
                  or terminated, (but only if the facility is cancelled or
                  terminated prior to the maturity date) whether voluntarily by
                  the company, upon the occurrence of an event of default or
                  otherwise.

8.       LOAN ACCOUNT

8.1      GE Capital agrees to maintain a loan account on its books to record:

         (a)      all current drawings;

<PAGE>

         (b)      all other amounts due and payable by the obligor to GE Capital
                  under the transaction documents including but not limited to
                  interest, fees and amounts deemed to be current drawings;

         (c)      all payments made by or on behalf of the obligor or by means
                  of the locked box agreement or blocked account agreement; and

         (d)      all other debits and credits as provided for in the
                  transaction documents.

         The balance in the loan account is prima facie evidence (absent error)
         of the amounts due and owing to GE Capital by the obligors. However, a
         failure to record or an error in recording does not limit or otherwise
         affect an obligor's obligations under the transaction documents.

8.2      GE Capital agrees to provide the company with a monthly statement of
         transactions for the facility. Unless the company notifies GE Capital
         of any objection to any item in that statement (specifically describing
         the basis for the objection), within 60 days after the date of the
         statement, each item in the statement is (absent obvious error) prima
         facie evidence of the correctness of the item.

9.       WITHHOLDING TAX

PAYMENTS TO GE CAPITAL

9.1      If a law requires the obligor to deduct an amount in respect of taxes
         from a payment under any transaction document such that GE Capital
         would not actually receive on the due date the full amount provided for
         under the transaction document, then:

         (a)      the amount payable is increased so that, after making the
                  deduction and further deductions applicable to additional
                  amounts payable under this clause 9.1, GE Capital is entitled
                  to receive (at the time the payment is due) the amount it
                  would have received if no deductions had been required; and

         (b)      the obligor agrees to make the deductions; and

         (c)      the obligor agrees to pay the amounts deducted to the relevant
                  authority in accordance with applicable law and deliver the
                  original receipts to GE Capital.

10.      COMPENSATION FOR CHANGED CIRCUMSTANCES

COMPENSATION

10.1     The company agrees to compensate GE Capital within 5 business days of
         receiving a notice from GE Capital if, in GE Capital's opinion, any law
         or change in law taking effect after the date of this agreement, a
         change in any law's interpretation or application by an authority after
         the date of this agreement or compliance by GE Capital or any of its
         related entities with any such law, changed law or changed
         interpretation or application directly:

         (a)      increases the cost of the facility to GE Capital; or

<PAGE>

         (b)      reduces any amount received or receivable by GE Capital, or
                  its effective return, in connection with the facility; or

         (c)      reduces GE Capital's return on capital allocated to the
                  facility, or its overall return on capital.

         Compensation need not be in the form of a lump sum and may be demanded
         as a series of payments.

CALCULATION IN REASONABLE DETAIL

10.2     If GE Capital makes a demand under clause 10.1, it agrees to provide
         the company with reasonably detailed calculations of how the amount
         demanded has been ascertained. However, nothing in this clause 10.2
         obliges GE Capital to provide details of its business or tax affairs
         which it considers in good faith to be confidential.

MITIGATION

10.3     If requested by the company, in any case where clause 10.1 applies, GE
         Capital will use its reasonable endeavours to take such steps as may be
         reasonable and available to it to minimise the amount of any increased
         cost, reduction, loss of return or payment. Failure by GE Capital to do
         so does not release the company from its obligations under clause 10.1
         and the company agrees that no right of action arises as a result.

10.4     Nothing in clause 10.3 obliges GE Capital to incur any additional costs
         or to take any steps which, in GE Capital's opinion, could be
         detrimental to its interests, whether by way of an economic, legal or
         regulatory disadvantage or in any other way.

10.5     The company must reimburse GE Capital on demand for any costs incurred
         in taking any steps under clause 10.3.

10.6     The early termination fee is not payable by the company should the
         facility terminate as a consequence of this clause 10 provided no event
         of default has occurred and subsists.

11.      ILLEGALITY OR IMPOSSIBILITY

GE CAPITAL'S RIGHT TO SUSPEND OR CANCEL

11.1     This clause 11 applies if GE Capital determines that:

         (a)      a change in a law; or

         (b)      a change in the interpretation or administration of a law by
                  an authority; or

         (c)      a new law taking effect after the date of this agreement,

         makes it (or will make it) illegal or impossible for GE Capital to
         fund, provide, or continue to fund or provide, financial accommodation
         under the transaction documents. In these circumstances, GE Capital, by
         giving a notice to the company, may suspend or cancel some or all of GE
         Capital's obligations under this agreement as indicated in the notice.

<PAGE>

EXTENT AND DURATION

11.2     The suspension or cancellation:

         (a)      must apply only to the extent necessary to avoid the
                  illegality or impossibility; and

         (b)      in the case of suspension, may continue only for so long as
                  the illegality or impossibility continues.

NOTICE REQUIRING REPAYMENT

11.3     If the illegality or impossibility relates to a current drawing, GE
         Capital, by giving a notice to the company, may require repayment of
         all or part of that current drawing. The company agrees to repay the
         amount specified within 5 business days after receiving the notice.

FEES

11.4     The early termination fee is not payable by the company if the early
         repayment occurs solely because of a cancellation or suspension under
         this clause, and provided no event of default has occurred and is
         subsisting.

11.5     The unused facility fee is not payable by the company for that part of
         the facility that is cancelled or suspended under this clause, and
         provided no event of default has occurred or occurs, for the period of
         the suspension or cancellation.

                  sufficient cleared funds for GE Capital to be able to pay the
                  taxes or fees by the due date; and

         (d)      if GST has application to any supply made under or in
                  connection with this agreement or a transaction document, in
                  addition to any other consideration expressed as payable
                  elsewhere in this agreement or a transaction document, an
                  additional amount on account of GST, such amount to be
                  calculated by multiplying the amount or consideration payable
                  by the company for the relevant supply by the prevailing GST
                  rate (taking into account any input tax credit actually
                  received by GE Capital which in GE Capital's opinion relates
                  to a GST payment made in respect of any supply made under or
                  in connection with this agreement). Any amount payable on
                  account of GST by the company under this clause must be
                  calculated without any deduction or set off of any other
                  amount (other than as expressly permitted under this clause)
                  and is payable by the company on demand by GE Capital whether
                  the demand is by means of an invoice or otherwise; and

         (e)      if GE Capital is unable to obtain a full input tax credit for
                  an amount paid on account of GST by GE Capital to another
                  person in respect of a supply made by another person to GE
                  Capital in respect of this agreement or a transaction document
                  or matters arising under this agreement of a transaction
                  document, an amount equal to the input tax credit to which GE
                  Capital is not entitled under the GST legislation.

                  authorised officer of the company; and

         (d)      an event of default; and

         (e)      GE Capital exercising or attempting to exercise rights in
                  connection with a transaction document after an event of
                  default; and

16.4     The company agrees to pay GE Capital an amount equal to any liability,
         loss or costs of the kind referred to in clause 16.2 ("Other loss")
         suffered or incurred by any employee, officer, agent or contractor of
         GE Capital.

CURRENCY CONVERSION ON JUDGMENT DEBT

16.5     If a judgment or proof of debt for an amount in connection with a
         transaction document is expressed in a currency other than the
         stipulated currency, then the company indemnifies GE Capital against:

<PAGE>

                  currency when it receives a payment in the other currency is
                  less favourable to GE Capital than the rate of exchange used
                  for the purpose of the judgment or acceptance of proof of
                  debt; and

         (b)      the costs of conversion.

CERTIFICATE BY GE CAPITAL

16.6     A statement or certificate given by GE Capital setting out the amount
         of any loss, liability or costs incurred or suffered by GE Capital
         (including the extent of GE Capital's entitlement to a full or reduced
         input tax credit for GST paid in respect of any matter contemplated in
         a transaction document) is, absent manifest error, final, binding and
         prima facie evidence against the obligor of the amount of that loss,
         liability or cost.

17.      INTEREST ON OVERDUE AMOUNTS

OBLIGATION TO PAY

17.1     If the obligor fails to pay any amount under this agreement on the due
         date for payment, the obligor agrees to pay to GE Capital on demand
         interest on that amount at the default rate. The interest accrues from
         day to day from and including the due date up to but excluding the date
         of actual payment and is calculated on actual days elapsed and a year
         of 360 days.

COMPOUNDING

17.2     Interest payable under clause 17.1 ("Obligation to pay") which is not
         paid when due for payment may be added to the overdue amount by GE
         Capital at intervals which GE Capital determines from time to time or,
         if no determination is made, every 30 days. Interest is payable on the
         increased overdue amount at the default rate in the manner set out in
         clause 17.1 ("Obligation to pay").

INTEREST FOLLOWING JUDGMENT

17.3     If a liability becomes merged in a judgment, then the company agrees to
         pay GE Capital on demand interest on the amount of that liability as an
         independent obligation. This interest:

         (a)      accrues from the date the liability becomes due for payment
                  both before and after the judgment until the liability is
                  paid; and

         (b)      is calculated at the rate that is the higher of the judgment
                  rate and the default rate.

18.      GUARANTEE AND INDEMNITY

REQUEST AND CONSIDERATION

18.1     By signing this agreement, the guarantor requests GE Capital to enter

         of GE Capital doing so.

ATTORNEYS' POWERS

19.2     Where an event of default has occurred and subsists, each attorney may:

         (a)      perform and observe the obligations of the obligor under this
                  agreement to enable GE Capital to exercise its rights under
                  this agreement; and

                  right of proof after an event relating to insolvency occurs in
                  respect of obligor (these things may be done in the obligor's
                  name or the attorney's name and they include signing and
                  delivering documents, taking part in legal proceedings and
                  receiving any dividend arising out of the right of proof); and

                  delegation; and

         on exercising the right of proof under clause 19.2 ("Attorneys'
         powers") except to the extent that any dividend remains after GE
         Capital has received all amounts payable or to become payable in the
         future under this agreement.

RIGHT OF PROOF LIMITED

19.4     Each obligor agrees not to exercise a right of proof after an event
         occurs relating to the insolvency of the company or any other obligor
         independently of an attorney appointed under clause 19.1 ("Appointment
         of attorney").

         transaction documents (including by participation or syndication)

         offered under the transaction documents as currently agreed. GE Capital
         must notify the company as soon as reasonably practicable of any
         assignment or other dealing with its rights under the transaction
         documents.

NO SET-OFF AGAINST ASSIGNEES

         other right the obligor has against GE Capital provided that the rights
         of the obligor arise under this agreement or the transaction documents.

22.1     At any time after an event of default has occurred and subsists, GE
         Capital may set off any amount due for payment by GE Capital to the
         obligor against any amount due for payment by the obligor to GE Capital
         under the transaction documents. Where an event of default has occurred
         and subsists, the obligor may claim or set-off any money owing by GE
         Capital to it against money owing by the obligor to GE Capital.

SUSPENSE ACCOUNT

22.2     GE Capital may place in a suspense account any payment it receives from
         the obligor for as long as it thinks prudent and need not apply it
         towards satisfying any money owing to GE Capital under this agreement.

CERTIFICATES

22.3     GE Capital may give the obligor a certificate about an amount payable
         or other matter in connection with a transaction document. A
         certificate containing reasonable detail of the calculation of the
         amount or determination of the interest rate is (absent obvious error)
         prima facie evidence of the amount or matter.

PROMPT PERFORMANCE

22.4     If this agreement specifies when the obligor must perform an
         obligation, the obligor agrees to perform it by the time specified. The
         obligor agrees to perform all other obligations promptly.

22.5     GE Capital may exercise a right or remedy or give or refuse its consent
         in any way it considers appropriate, including by imposing conditions
         unless a transaction document states otherwise.

CONSENTS

22.6     The obligor agrees to comply with all conditions in any consent GE
         Capital gives in connection with any transaction document.

PARTIAL EXERCISING OF RIGHTS

22.7     If GE Capital does not exercise a right or remedy fully or at a given
         time, GE Capital can still exercise it later.

<PAGE>

NO LIABILITY FOR LOSS

22.8     GE Capital is not liable for loss caused by the exercise or attempted
         exercise of, failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, a right or
         remedy other than caused by GE Capital's negligence or default.

CONFLICT OF INTEREST

22.9     GE Capital's rights and remedies under any transaction document may be
         exercised even if this involves a conflict of duty or GE Capital has a
         personal interest in their exercise.

REMEDIES CUMULATIVE

22.10    The rights and remedies of GE Capital under any transaction document
         are in addition to other rights and remedies given by law independently
         of that transaction document.

RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS ARE UNAFFECTED

22.11    Rights given to GE Capital under this agreement and the obligor's
         liabilities under it are not affected by any law that might otherwise
         affect them.

INDEMNITIES

22.12    The indemnities in this agreement are continuing obligations,
         independent of the obligor's other obligations under this agreement and
         continue after this agreement ends. It is not necessary for GE Capital
         to incur expense or make payment before enforcing a right of indemnity
         conferred by this agreement.

VARIATION AND WAIVER

22.13    Unless this agreement expressly states otherwise, a provision of this
         agreement, or right created under it, may not be waived or varied
         except in writing signed by the party or parties to be bound.

CONFIDENTIALITY

22.14    The obligors consent to GE Capital disclosing information provided by
         the obligors that is not publicly available:

                  with rights or obligations under a transaction document
                  (including in connection with preparatory steps such as
                  negotiating with any potential assignee or potential
                  participant of GE Capital's rights or other person who is
                  considering contracting with GE Capital in connection with a
                  transaction document); or

         (b)      to a person considering entering into (or who does enter into)
                  a credit swap with GE Capital involving credit events relating
                  to the obligor or any of its related entities; or

         (c)      to officers, employees, legal and other advisers and auditors
                  of GE Capital; or

         (d)      to any party to a transaction document or any related entity
                  of GE Capital; or

<PAGE>

         (e)      with the consent of the obligor about whom the information
                  relates (which consent must not be unreasonably withheld); or

         (f)      as allowed necessary or required by any law court, regulatory
                  body, tribunal, authority, judicial or quasi-judicial
                  proceedings or by any stock exchange.

FUrTHER STEPS

22.15    The obligor agrees to do anything GE Capital asks (such as obtaining
         consents, signing and producing documents and getting documents
         completed and signed) to bind the obligor and any other person intended
         to be bound under the transaction documents.

INCONSISTENT LAW

22.16    To the extent permitted by law, each transaction document prevails to
         the extent it is inconsistent with any law.

SUPERVENING LEGISLATION

22.17    Any present or future legislation which operates to vary the
         obligations of an obligor in connection with a transaction document
         with the result that GE Capital's rights, powers or remedies are
         adversely affected (including by way of delay or postponement) is
         excluded except to the extent that its exclusion is prohibited or
         rendered ineffective by law.

TIME OF THE ESSENCE

22.18    Time is of the essence in any transaction document in respect of an
         obligation of the obligor to pay money.

APPLICABLE LAW

22.19    The transaction documents are governed by the law in force in New
         Zealand. The obligor and GE Capital submit to the non-exclusive
         jurisdiction of the courts of New Zealand.

SERVING DOCUMENTS

22.20    Without preventing any other method of service, any document in a court
         action may be served on a party by being delivered to or left at that
         party's address for service of notices under clause 21 ("Notices").

ADVERTISING

22.21    The obligor consents to the publication by GE Capital of a "tombstone"
         or similar advertising material relating to the transactions
         contemplated in the transaction documents.

COUNTERPARTS

22.22    This agreement may consist of a number of copies of this agreement each
         signed by one or more parties to the agreement. When taken together,
         the signed copies are treated as making up the one document. Any copy
         of this agreement signed by a party is binding on that party whether or
         not that or any other copy is signed by or binding upon any other
         party.

<PAGE>

SEVERANCE

22.23    Each word, phrase, sentence, paragraph and clause in each transaction
         document is severable no matter how they are linked. If any word,
         phrase, sentence, paragraph or clause is defective, unenforceable, void
         or voidable they may be severed and the remaining words will continue
         to be of full force and effect.

SCHEDULE 4 - EXCLUSIONARY CRITERIA

1.       In respect of eligible accounts, the exclusionary criteria excludes any
         account:

         (a)      which does not arise from the sale of goods or the performance
                  of services by the company in the ordinary course of its
                  business;

         (b)      if the company's right to receive payment is not absolute or
                  is contingent;

         (c)      if the company is not able to bring suit or otherwise enforce
                  its remedies against the account debtor through judicial
                  process;

         (d)      to the extent any defence, counterclaim, set-off or dispute is
                  asserted as to the account;

         (e)      if the account represents a progress billing consisting of an
                  invoice for goods sold or used or services rendered pursuant
                  to a contract under which the account debtor's obligation to
                  pay that invoice is subject to the company's completion of
                  further performance under that contract;

         (f)      that is not a true and correct statement of bona fide
                  indebtedness incurred in the amount of the account for goods
                  sold to or services rendered and accepted by the applicable
                  account debtor;

         (g)      with respect to which an invoice, acceptable to GE Capital in
                  form and substance, has not been sent to the applicable
                  account debtor;

         (h)      that is not owned by the company;

         (i)      that is subject to any right, claim, security interest or
                  other interest of any other person other than a retention of
                  title interest or claim, other than in favour of GE Capital;

         (j)      that arises from a sale to any officer, other employee,
                  related entity or affiliate of the obligor, or to any entity
                  which has any common officer with the obligor;

         (k)      that is not paid within 90 days of the end of the month in
                  which the invoice was issued;

         (l)      if the relevant account debtor is or becomes insolvent:

         (m)      if GE Capital's interest in it is not a first priority
                  perfected security interest;

         (n)      as to which any of the representations or warranties
                  pertaining to accounts set forth in any transaction document
                  is untrue;

         (o)      which is payable in any currency other than New Zealand
                  Dollars;

         (p)      that is the obligation of a debtor outside New Zealand unless
                  the account is supported by a letter of credit in which GE
                  Capital has a first priority security interest or credit
                  insurance acceptable to GE Capital;

<PAGE>

         (q)      that is the obligation of a debtor to whom the company is or
                  may become liable for goods sold or services rendered by the
                  debtor to the company, to the extent of the company's
                  liability to the debtor;

         (r)      that arises with respect to goods which are delivered on a
                  cash-on-delivery basis or placed on consignment, guaranteed
                  sale or other terms by reason of which the payment by the
                  debtor may be conditional;

         (s)      payable by a debtor where the total unpaid accounts of that
                  debtor exceed 25% of the aggregate of all accounts payable to
                  the company at that time, to the extent of that excess;

         (t)      that are accounts of a debtor if 50% or more of the accounts
                  owing from that debtor remain unpaid within the periods
                  specified in (k) for the debtor;

         (u)      that arises from any bill-and-hold or other sale of goods
                  which remain in the company's possession or under the
                  company's control;

         (v)      to the extent that the account exceeds any credit limit
                  established by GE Capital in GE Capital's sole discretion;

         (w)      that represents interest payments or service charges owing to
                  the company; or

         (x)      which is unacceptable to GE Capital in its reasonable credit
                  judgment.

2.       In respect of eligible inventory, the exclusionary criteria excludes
         any item:

         (a)      subject to any retention of title claim or encumbrance or
                  which is covered by a negotiable document of title other than
                  any right or claim of GE Capital;

         (b)      not located on premises owned or operated by the company and
                  identified in the disclosure statement;

                  an obligor) of the premises where the inventory is located;

         (d)      located on premises where the aggregate value of the items on

         (e)      in transit;

         (f)      which is not covered by insurance acceptable to GE Capital;

         (g)      in GE Capital's good faith credit judgement which is obsolete,
                  unsaleable, shop worn, damaged or unfit for further processing
                  or is not of good and merchantable quality or free from
                  defects;

         (h)      which consists of slow moving items, discontinued items,
                  returned items, or used items held for re-sale;

<PAGE>

                  excess of 12 months where the inventory held at that time by

                  for that item type in the previous 12 months;

         (j)      which does not meet all standards imposed by any government

SCHEDULE 5 - LETTERS OF CREDIT (CLAUSE 2.11)

REQUESTING A LETTER OF CREDIT

         s5.1     If the company wants a letter of credit to be issued, the
                  company must have excess availability in excess of the face
                  value amount of the letter of credit requested. The company
                  agrees to give a letter of credit application to GE Capital no
                  later than 3 business days before the proposed issuance date.
                  The letter of credit application must contain:

                  (a)      details of the beneficiary of the requested letter of
                           credit; and

                  (b)      the proposed issuance date of the requested letter of
                           credit (which must be no later than 5 business days
                           after the date of the letter of credit application);
                           and

                  (c)      the proposed expiry date (if any) of the requested
                           letter of credit which must be no later than one year
                           after the issuance date without GE Capital's written
                           consent, and must not be any later than the maturity
                           date; and

                  (d)      the face value amount in New Zealand dollars of the
                           requested letter of credit (which must be an amount
                           which when added to the face value amount of each
                           current LC must not exceed the letter of credit
                           facility limit and must not exceed the amount of any
                           excess availability calculated at that time); and

                  (e)      any other information GE Capital may reasonably
                           require from time to time.

LETTER OF CREDIT FACILITY LIMIT

         s5.2     The total amount of the letter of credit liability which is
                  payable or to become payable in respect of all letters of
                  credit issued under this agreement must not exceed the letter
                  of credit facility limit.

EFFECT OF A LETTER OF CREDIT APPLICATION

         s5.3     A letter of credit application is effective when GE Capital
                  actually receives it in legible form. An effective letter of
                  credit application is irrevocable unless the company advises
                  GE Capital in writing that the company no longer requires a
                  letter of credit and at that time GE Capital has not taken any
                  steps to make the letter of credit available which GE Capital
                  cannot rescind or reverse without GE Capital incurring a loss.

CONDITIONS PRECEDENT TO ISSUE OF AN LC

         s5.4     The company must ensure that the form of the letter of credit
                  is satisfactory to GE Capital and the issuing bank.

<PAGE>

PAYMENT OF AN LC

         s5.5     If a letter of credit is called or if any letter of credit
                  liability arises or is paid by GE Capital, then the amount
                  called, payable or paid must be immediately repaid to GE
                  Capital. GE Capital may debit the company's loan account with
                  the amount required to be paid. The debit is deemed to be a
                  current drawing under the facility of the amount called
                  payable or paid. The company acknowledges its indebtedness to
                  GE Capital for the amount of that current drawing.

         s5.6     If any letter of credit is issued in a currency other than New
                  Zealand dollars, GE Capital may convert the amount of the
                  letter of credit liability into New Zealand dollars (even
                  though it may be necessary to convert through a third currency
                  to do so) for the purpose of calculating the amount of the
                  letter of credit liability on the day and at the rates it
                  considers appropriate and may add its usual costs in
                  connection to the conversion to New Zealand dollars.

         s5.7     Without prejudice to any other power of GE Capital, upon or at
                  any time after the occurrence of an event of default and for
                  so long as it subsists, GE Capital may require the company by
                  notice to pay to GE Capital cash cover equal to 100% of the
                  face value amount of each current LC (where the letter of
                  credit is denominated in New Zealand dollars) and otherwise an
                  amount equal to 105% of the face value amount of each current
                  LC. Upon receiving the notice the company must immediately pay
                  the cash cover specified in the notice to GE Capital in
                  immediately available funds and in New Zealand dollars. The
                  additional 5% of the face value amount of each current LC
                  ("Buffer") is to be applied by GE Capital against any costs
                  relating to foreign exchange conversion. To the extent that
                  such costs are less than the amount representing the Buffer,
                  GE Capital shall repay the balance of the cash cover to the
                  company.

         s5.8     If any LC obligations are subsisting on the maturity date, the
                  company must either immediately:

                  (a)      cause each current LC to be returned to the issuer
                           and cancelled; or

                  (b)      pay to GE Capital, in immediately available funds, an
                           amount equal to 100% of the aggregate amount of the
                           face value amount of each current LC (where the
                           letter of credit is denominated in New Zealand
                           dollars) and otherwise an amount equal to 105% of the
                           aggregate amount of the face value amount of each
                           current LC to be held by GE Capital as cash
                           collateral in an account of GE Capital; or

                  (c)      procure the delivery to GE Capital of a bank
                           guarantee in form and substance and in currencies
                           approved by GE Capital in an amount equal to 100% of
                           the aggregate amount of the face value amount of each
                           current LC (where the letter of credit is denominated
                           in New Zealand dollars) and otherwise an amount equal
                           to 105% of the aggregate amount of the face value
                           amount of current LCs.

         s5.9     Without prejudice to any other power of GE Capital, if any LC
                  obligations are subsisting on the maturity date or on the
                  occurrence of any event of default, GE Capital may pay the
                  beneficiary all amounts payable or to become payable in the
                  future under the letter of credit.

SCHEDULE 7 - GUARANTEE AND INDEMNITY (CLAUSE 18.1)

GUARANTEE

         s7.1     The guarantor unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees
                  payment to GE Capital of the guaranteed money and guarantees
                  to GE Capital the due performance by the company of the
                  company's obligations to GE Capital under the transaction
                  documents as a principal obligation. If the company does not
                  pay the guaranteed money on time and in accordance with the
                  transaction documents, then the guarantor agrees to pay the
                  guaranteed money to GE Capital on demand. A demand may be made
                  at any time and from time to time and whether or not GE
                  Capital has made demand on the company.

NATURE OF GUARANTEE

         s7.2     This guarantee is a continuing obligation and extends to all
                  of the guaranteed money.

INDEMNITY

         s7.3     The guarantor unconditionally and irrevocably indemnifies GE
                  Capital as a principal obligation against any liability or
                  loss (including consequential or economic loss) arising, and
                  any costs GE Capital suffers or incurs:

                  (a)      if an obligor does not, is not obliged to, or is
                           unable to, pay the guaranteed money in accordance
                           with the transaction documents; or

                  (b)      if the guarantor is not obliged to pay GE Capital an
                           amount under clause s7.1 ("Guarantee"); or

                  (c)      if GE Capital is obliged, or agrees, to pay an amount
                           to a trustee in bankruptcy or liquidator (of an
                           insolvent person) in connection with a payment by an
                           obligor (for example, GE Capital may have to, or may
                           agree to, pay interest on the amount); or

                  (d)      if the guarantor defaults under this guarantee; or

                  (e)      in connection with any person exercising, or not
                           exercising, rights under this guarantee; or

                  (f)      if any obligor defaults under this agreement or any
                           transaction document; or

                  (g)      if the guaranteed money is not recoverable or
                           recovered by GE Capital from any obligor.

REINSTATEMENT OF RIGHTS

         s7.4     A trustee in bankruptcy or liquidator may ask GE Capital to
                  refund a payment it has received or otherwise repay money it
                  has received in connection with this guarantee the guaranteed
                  money or the transactions documents. To the extent GE Capital
                  is obliged to, or agrees to, 'make a refund or repayment it
                  may treat the payment as if

<PAGE>

                  it had not been made. It is then entitled to its rights
                  against the guarantor under this guarantee as if the payment
                  had never been made. This applies despite anything in this
                  guarantee.

RIGHTS OF GE CAPITAL ARE PROTECTED

         s7.5     Rights given to GE Capital under this guarantee (and the
                  guarantor's liabilities under it) are not affected by any act
                  or omission by GE Capital or by anything else that might
                  otherwise affect them under law or otherwise, including:

                  (a)      the fact that it varies or replaces any arrangement
                           under which the guaranteed money is expressed to be
                           owing, such as by increasing the facility limit or
                           extending the term; or

                  (b)      the fact that it releases the company or an obligor
                           or gives it a concession, such as more time to pay or
                           compromises any of the guaranteed money; or

                  (c)      the fact that the company opens an account with it;
                           or

                  (d)      the fact it releases, loses the benefit of or does
                           not obtain any transaction document; or

                  (e)      the fact that it does not register any transaction
                           document which could be registered; or

                  (f)      the fact that it releases any person who guarantees
                           any of the company's obligations; or

                  (g)      the fact that a person becomes a guarantor after the
                           date of this agreement; or

                  (h)      the fact that the obligations of any person who
                           guarantees any of the company's obligations may be
                           void or may not be enforceable; or

                  (i)      the fact that any person who was intended to
                           guarantee any of the company's obligations does not
                           do so or does not do so effectively; or

                  (j)      the death, mental or physical disability or
                           insolvency of any person including an obligor; or

                  (k)      changes in the membership, name or business of any
                           person; or

                  (l)      any neglect, omission, default or delay of GE
                           Capital.

NO MERGER

         s7.6     This guarantee does not merge with or adversely affect, and is
                  not adversely affected by, any of the following:

                  (a)      any other guarantee, indemnity, or security interest,
                           or other right or remedy to which GE Capital is
                           entitled; or

<PAGE>

                  (b)      a judgment which GE Capital obtains against the
                           guarantor in connection with the guaranteed money or
                           any other amount payable under this guarantee.

                  GE Capital may still exercise rights under this guarantee as
                  well as under the judgment, other guarantee, indemnity,
                  security interest, or other right or remedy.

EXTENT OF GUARANTOR'S OBLIGATIONS

         s7.7     If more than one person is named as "guarantor" each of them
                  is liable for all the obligations under this guarantee both
                  separately on its own and jointly with any one or more other
                  persons named as "guarantor". This guarantee binds each person
                  who signs as "guarantor" even if another person who was
                  intended to sign does not sign it or is not bound by it.

GUARANTOR'S RIGHTS ARE SUSPENDED

         s.7.8    As long as any of the guaranteed money remains unpaid, the
                  guarantor may not, without GE Capital's written consent:

                  (a)      reduce its liability under this guarantee by claiming
                           that it or any obligor or any other person has a
                           right of set-off subrogation or counterclaim against
                           GE Capital; or

                  (b)      exercise any legal right to claim to be entitled to
                           the benefit of another guarantee, indemnity, or
                           security interest given in connection with the
                           guaranteed money or any other amount payable under
                           this guarantee (for example, the guarantor may not
                           try to enforce any security interest GE Capital has
                           taken to ensure repayment of the guaranteed money);
                           or

                  (c)      claim an amount from the company, or another
                           guarantor of the company's obligations, under a right
                           of indemnity or any other claim, or enforce any right
                           against either of them; or

                  (d)      claim an amount in the insolvency of any obligor; or

                  (e)      directly or indirectly withdraw or seek to withdraw
                           any money loaned by the guarantor to the company or
                           otherwise owing to the guarantor by the company or
                           accept or receive any property or payment of the
                           company or take any encumbrance or security interest
                           from the company; or

                  (f)      transfer, assign or otherwise dispose of any claim
                           the guarantor may have against the company other than
                           by way of complete release or make or cause any other
                           person to claim, demand or bring an action against
                           the company directly or indirectly.

                  Any money, property or other benefit received by the guarantor
                  from the company in contravention of this clause is received
                  on the basis that it is held on trust for GE Capital and will
                  be paid to GE Capital on receipt by the guarantor.

CROSS GUARANTEE

         s7.9     This guarantee takes effect as a cross-guarantee and
                  cross-indemnity when one or more of the company are the same
                  as one or more of the guarantor. In those circumstances it is
                  a separate guarantee and indemnity in relation to each obligor
                  as if that person were:

                  (a)      the only person included in the definition of
                           "company"; and

                  (b)      excluded from the definition of "guarantor".

terms shall have the meanings accorded them in Section 9, Definitions, below.

1.       PAYMENT TERMS.

         Applicant agrees to pay to GE Capital on demand in the manner provided

         the Dollar Equivalent thereof) so drawn for each day from the date of
         payment of the relevant draft to and including the date of payment in
         full of such amount by Applicant to GE Capital, at a rate per annum
         equal to the rate per annum on Annex A hereto, or, if none is
         specified, in accordance with the Facility Agreement; and (iii) any and
         all commissions and charges of, and any and all costs and expenses

3.       ADMINISTRATION OF CREDIT.

                  other instruments and documents delivered to Applicant from
                  time to time in connection with the Credit, and, in the event
                  Applicant has any claim of non-compliance with the
                  instructions or of any discrepancy or other irregularity,
                  Applicant will immediately notify GE Capital thereof in
                  writing, and Applicant will conclusively be deemed to have
                  waived any such claim against GE Capital, Bank and their
                  correspondents unless such immediate notice is given as
                  aforesaid.

<PAGE>

         (b)      Neither Bank, GE Capital nor any of their correspondents shall
                  be responsible for, and neither Bank's and GE Capital's powers
                  and rights hereunder nor Applicant's Obligations shall be
                  affected by: (i) any act or omission pursuant to Applicant's
                  instructions; (ii) any other act or omission of Bank, GE
                  Capital or their correspondents or their respective agents or
                  employees other than any such arising from its or their gross

                  or genuineness of drafts, documents or required statements,
                  even if such drafts, documents or statements should in fact
                  prove to be in any or all respects invalid, inaccurate,
                  fraudulent or forged (and notwithstanding that Applicant shall
                  have notified Bank or GE Capital thereof); (iv) failure of any
                  draft to bear any reference or adequate reference to the
                  Credit; (v) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in
                  transmission of delivery of any messages however sent and
                  whether or not in code or otherwise; (vi) any act, default,
                  omission, insolvency or failure in business of any other
                  person (including any correspondent) or any consequences
                  arising from causes beyond Bank's or GE Capital's control; or
                  (vii) any acts or omissions of any Beneficiary of the Credit
                  or transferee of the Credit, if transferable. Without limiting
                  the generality of the foregoing, the Bank may (i) act in
                  reliance on any oral, telephone, telegraphic, electronic,
                  facsimile or written request, notice, or instruction believed
                  in good faith to be from or have been authorized by the
                  Applicant, (ii) receive, accept or pay as complying with the
                  terms of the Credit any Drafts or other documents, otherwise
                  in order, which are signed by or issued to any person or
                  entity acting as the representative of, or in the place of,
                  the party in whose name the Credit provides that any Drafts or
                  other documents should be drawn or issued and (iii) waive its
                  stipulation that the bank nominated in the Credit shall accept
                  or pay the Drafts, and the Bank may then accept presentations
                  of Drafts and documents for payment directly.

         (c)      GE Capital may appoint any of its other related bodies
                  corporate as "Bank" at any time and any Bank may assign or
                  otherwise deal with all or any portion of its rights under
                  this Agreement or the Credit, (including without limitation
                  any reimbursement obligation owing to it) in any way it sees
                  fit including to any subsidiary or related bodies corporate of
                  General Electric Capital Corporation, in each case without
                  prior notice to Applicant.

4.       EXTENSIONS, INCREASES AND MODIFICATIONS OF CREDIT.

         Each Applicant agrees that GE Capital, acting through the Bank may at
         any time and from time to time, in its discretion, by agreement with
         one or more other Applicants: (a) further finance or refinance any
         transaction under the Credit; (b) renew, extend or change the time of
         payment or the manner, place or terms of payment of any of the
         Obligations; (c) settle or compromise any of the Obligations or
         subordinate the payment thereof to the payment of any other debts of or
         claims against any Applicant which may at the time be due or owing to
         the Bank; or (d) release any Applicant or any Guarantor or any
         Collateral, or modify the terms under which such Collateral is held, or
         forego any right of setoff, or modify or amend in any way this
         Agreement or the Credit, or give any waiver of consent under this
         Agreement; all in such manner and on such terms as Bank may deem proper
         and without notice or further assent from such Applicant. In any such
         event, such Applicant shall remain bound by such event and this
         Agreement after giving effect to such event, and the Obligations under
         this Agreement shall be continuing obligations in respect of any
         transaction so financed or refinanced and, in either case, if the
         Obligations are contingent, may be treated by GE Capital as due and
         payable for their maximum face amount.

5.       RESERVE REQUIREMENTS AND SIMILAR COSTS.

         If Bank is now or hereafter becomes subject to any reserve, special
         deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with, or for
         the account of, or credit extended by, Bank, or any other condition is
         imposed upon Bank which imposes a cost upon Bank, and the result, in
         the determination of Bank is to increase the cost to Bank of
         maintaining a Credit or paying or funding the payment of any draft
         thereunder, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable,
         directly or indirectly, by Bank hereunder, Applicant will pay to Bank
         upon demand such amounts required to compensate Bank for such increased
         cost or reduction. In making the determinations contemplated hereunder,
         Bank may make such estimates, assumptions, allocations and the like
         which Bank in good faith determines to be appropriate, but Bank's
         selection thereof, and Bank's determinations based thereon, shall be
         final and binding and conclusive upon Applicant absent manifest error.

6.       POSSESSION OF PROPERTY BY APPLICANT.

         If the Applicant obtains possession of goods or other property, if any,
         covered by the Credit, prior to the Bank's receipt and review of
         documents, then all discrepancies and other irregularities of said
         documents shall be deemed waived by the Applicant, and the Bank is
         authorized and directed to pay any Drafts drawn or purporting to be
         drawn upon the Credit.

7.       PARTIAL SHIPMENTS.

         (a)      Except as otherwise expressly stated in the Credit (i) partial
                  shipments may be made under the Credit, and the Bank may
                  honour the relative Drafts without inquiry regardless of any
                  apparent disproportion between the quantity shipped and the
                  amount of the relative Draft and the total amount of the
                  Credit and the total quantity to be shipped under the Credit,
                  and (ii) if the Credit specifies shipments in instalments
                  within stated periods and the shipper fails to ship in any
                  designated period, shipments of subsequent instalments may
                  nevertheless be made in their respective designated periods
                  and the Bank may honour the relative Drafts.

8.       EVENTS OF DEFAULT, REMEDIES; PRE-FUNDING.

         (a)      If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
                  GE Capital may declare all or any part of the Obligations
                  (including any such which may be contingent and not matured)
                  to be immediately due and payable. GE Capital may exercise any
                  other rights it may have under the Transaction Documents if an
                  Event of Default occurs.

         (b)      Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Applicant
                  agrees that if: (a) any Event of Default shall have occurred;
                  (b) GE Capital at any time and for any reason deems itself or
                  Bank to be insecure or the risk of non-payment or
                  non-performance of any of the Obligations to have increased;
                  or (c) in the event that the Credit is denominated in a
                  currency other than Dollars, GE Capital determines that such
                  currency is unavailable or that the transactions contemplated
                  by this Agreement are unlawful or contrary to any regulations
                  to which GE Capital or Bank may be subject or that due to
                  currency fluctuations the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of a
                  Credit exceeds the amount of Dollars that Bank in its sole
                  judgment expected to be its maximum exposure under a Credit,
                  then Applicant will upon demand pay to GE Capital an amount
                  equal to the undisbursed portion, if any, of the Credits, and
                  such amount shall be held as additional

<PAGE>

                  Collateral for the payment of all Obligations, and after the

         satisfied or other arrangements for the securing of such rights

         reserves the right to decline (i) any request made by the Applicant for
