                  NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the representations,
warranties, covenants and agreements contained herein, the parties hereto agree
as follows:

                  1. Homer City hereby unconditionally and irrevocably assigns,
transfers and conveys to Collateral Agent all of Homer City's rights, title and
interests in, to and under the Assigned Agreements. Notwithstanding such assign
ment, Homer City shall remain solely and exclusively liable for all duties and
obligations under or with respect to the Assigned Agreements subject to the
provi sions of Section 2 below.

                  2. (a) Subject to paragraphs (b) and (c) of this Section 2,
the Collateral Agent, solely on behalf of the Owner Lessors, hereby assumes and
agrees to perform, effective as of the earliest date on which all of the
Facility Leases have terminated in accordance with their respective terms (the
"LESSOR POSSESSION DATE"), all of the duties and obligations of Homer City under
the Assigned Agreement incurred on or after the Lease Possession Date.

                  (1) (i) Prior to the Lessor Possession Date, the Collateral
Agent shall have no obligation or liability under the Assigned Agreement and
(ii) in no event shall the Collateral Agent have any liability for liabilities
accruing prior to the Lessor Possession Date.

                  (2) The provisions of this Section 2 notwithstanding, upon the
occurrence of the Lessor Possession Date, the Owner Lessors shall have the
option to terminate any Assigned Agreement in accordance with its terms,

                                       2
<Page>

whereupon such agreement shall terminate and any and all liabilities thereunder
(including, without limitation, with respect to such termination) shall remain
the sole obligation of Homer City, other than liabilities that are attributable
to the actions or omissions of the Collateral Agent or the Owner Lessors taken
in connection with such termination or this Assignment Agreement. The Owner
Lessors may exercise such option by written notice to Homer City, EMEFS, and/or
EMMT, as applicable, at any time prior to the 30th day after the Lessor
Possession Date.

                  3. This Assignment Agreement shall remain in effect unless and
until each of the Facility Site Leases have been terminated in accordance with
their terms, whereupon each of the assignments provided for in Section 1 above
shall terminate.

                  4. The Consenting Parties hereby consent to the assignment of
the Assigned Agreements and approve the execution by Homer City of the Assign
ment Agreement, and acknowledge that no further consents, acknowledgments, or
approvals of any kind shall be required for the effectiveness of the assignments
contemplated hereby.

                  5. The parties hereto expressly acknowledge and approve the
sub-assignment agreement executed by the Collateral Agent and Homer City
simultaneously herewith whereby the Collateral Agent will sub-assign of all its
rights, title, and interest in the Assigned Agreements to Homer City for so long
as any of the Facility Leases are in effect, such term to be extended in
accordance with the provisions governing extension of the term of the Facility
Leases, and remaining in effect unless and until all of the Facility Leases may
be terminated in accordance with their terms.

                  6. All of the terms of this Assignment Agreement shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective
successors and assigns, including without limitation each of the Owner Lessors.
The rights and duties of the Owner Lessors hereunder shall be determined based
upon their respective Owner Lessor's Percentages.

                  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in order to secure the Lessor
Notes of each Owner Lessor, such Owner Lessor will assign and grant a first
priority security interest in favor of its applicable Lease Indenture Trustee in
and to all of such Owner Lessor's right, title and interest in, to and under
this Agreement (other than to the extent relating to Excepted Payments and the
rights to enforce and collect the same). Each of the parties hereto hereby
consents to such assignment and to the creation of

                                       3
<Page>

such Lien and security interest and acknowledges receipt of copies of the Lease
Indenture, it being understood that such consent shall not affect any
requirement or the absence of any requirement for any consent of such party
under any other circumstances. Unless and until the Collateral Agent shall have
received written notice from the Lease Indenture Trustee that the Lien of the
applicable Lease Indenture has been fully discharged, the applicable Security
Agent shall have the right (i) to directly receive for application in accordance
with the terms of the applicable Lease Indenture all amounts payable or
otherwise distributable under this Agreement to the applicable Owner Lessor
(other than in respect of the Excepted Payments) and (ii) to exercise the rights
of such Owner Lessor under this Agreement (other than with respect to Excepted
Payments and the rights to enforce and collect the same) to the extent set forth
in and subject to the exceptions set forth in the applicable Lease Indenture.

                  7. The Collateral Agent is executing this Agreement on behalf
of the Owner Lessors solely in its capacity as collateral agent under the
Ownership and Operation Agreement and not in its individual capacity and in no
case shall the Collateral Agent (or any successor entity acting as collateral
agent under the Owner ship and Operation Agreement) be personally liable for or
on account of any of the statements, representations, warranties, covenants or
obligations hereunder, all such liability, if any, being expressly waived by the
parties hereto and any Person claiming by, through, or under such party.

                  8. This Assignment Agreement shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without reference
to choice of law principles (except Section 5-1401 of the New York General
Obliga tions Law), including all matters of construction, validity and
performance.

not to exceed at any time outstanding the amount set forth opposite such Bank's
name on the signature pages hereof or, if such Bank has entered into one or more

                  (c) The Borrower shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, (i)
to each of the Agent and the Security Agent prompt notice of the occurrence of
any event resulting in an adjustment to the Debt Service Reserve Amount and (ii)
to each of the Agent and the Security Agent the calculation of the Outstanding
Amount resulting from the adjustment referred to in clause (i), together with

                  (d) The Issuing Bank shall have the right, upon the occurrence
and during the continuation of an Event of Default, to deliver a notice in the
form of ANNEX 2 to the Debt Service Reserve Letter of Credit (a "TERMINATION
NOTICE"), whereupon the Expiration Date shall occur on the date specified in

deliver to the Borrower a copy of any termination notice given to the

                  SECTION 2.3 PARTICIPATIONS IN DEBT SERVICE RESERVE LETTER OF

party, an undivided interest and participation in the Debt Service Reserve
Letter of Credit, each Drawing and the other Obligations in respect thereof in
an amount equal to the product of (a) a fraction the numerator of which is the
amount of the Commitment of such Bank and the denominator of which is the
aggregate amount of all of the Commitments (the "RATABLE SHARE") and (b) the
maximum amount available to be drawn under the Debt Service Reserve Letter of
Credit plus the amount of all outstanding DSR Loans. The Agent shall promptly
advise each Bank of any change in the Outstanding Amount or the Expiration Date
in respect of the Debt Service Reserve Letter of Credit, the cancellation or
other termination of the Debt Service Reserve Letter of Credit and any Drawing,
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that failure to provide such notice shall not limit or impair
the rights of the Agent hereunder or under the Financing Documents.

                  SECTION 2.4 DRAWING AND REIMBURSEMENT. The payment by the
Issuing Bank of a Drawing shall constitute the making by the Issuing Bank of a
loan in the amount of such payment. In the event that a Drawing is not repaid by
the Borrower by 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the day of such Drawing, the
Agent shall promptly

                                       8

Issuing Bank's account, on the day of such notification and in immediately
available funds, an amount equal to such Bank's Ratable Share of the payment
made by the Issuing Bank and not reimbursed or paid by the Borrower pursuant to

Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank the amount of such loan, the Issuing
Bank shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Bank together
with interest thereon at (i) for the first three (3) days of nonpayment, the
Federal Funds Rate and (ii) thereafter, the Federal Funds Rate plus 2.50%. Each

                  (a) for the account of the Issuing Bank, such additional

associated with letters of credit, in accordance with the Issuing Bank's
standard internal charge guidelines, payable on the next Monthly Transfer
Date.

                  SECTION 2.6 INTEREST. (a) The Borrower shall pay interest
on the unpaid principal amount of each DSR Loan resulting from a Drawing on
each applicable Interest Payment Date, from the date of such DSR Loan until
such principal amount has been repaid in full. Such interest shall be paid at
a rate PER ANNUM equal to (i) so long as no Event of Default has occurred and
is continuing, either (x) with respect to Adjusted Base Rate Loans, the sum
of the Adjusted Base Rate in effect from time to time plus 1.50% PER ANNUM or
(y) with respect to LIBOR Rate Loans, the sum of the LIBOR Rate in effect
from time to time plus 2.50% PER ANNUM, and (ii) so long as an Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing, the Adjusted Base Rate plus 4.00% PER
ANNUM.

                  (b) Each Drawing and each DSR Loan made pursuant to SECTION
2.4 shall initially bear interest based on the Adjusted Base Rate as in effect
from time to time plus 1.50% PER ANNUM; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that prior to the
making of any DSR Loan, the Borrower may give the Agent written notice of the
Borrower's election that such DSR Loan shall bear interest based on the LIBOR
Rate. Such notice shall be irrevocable and shall be effective only if received
by the Agent not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, three (3) Business
Days prior to the occurrence of the Drawing giving rise to such DSR Loan. The
Agent shall promptly notify the Banks of the contents of each such notice.
Subject to SECTIONS 2.6(D), 2.19 and 2.23, such DSR Loan shall then bear
interest based on the LIBOR Rate from the date of such DSR Loan.

<Page>

                  (c) Subject to SECTIONS 2.6(D), 2.19 and 2.23, unless an Event
of Default shall have occurred, the Borrower may at any time, upon three
Business Days' irrevocable written notice to the Agent, (x) convert (i) any
Adjusted Base Rate Loan to a LIBOR Rate Loan or (ii) any LIBOR Rate Loan to an
Adjusted Base Rate Loan, PROVIDED that a LIBOR Rate Loan may be converted only
on the last day of the applicable Interest Period or (y) continue any LIBOR Rate
Loan as a LIBOR Rate Loan with the same or a different Interest Period on the
last day of the applicable Interest Period. The Agent shall promptly notify the
Banks of the contents of each such notice. In the event the Borrower fails to
select the applicable interest rate, within the time period and otherwise as
provided in this SECTION 2.6(C), such DSR Loan (if outstanding as a LIBOR Rate
Loan) will be automatically converted into an Adjusted Base Rate Loan on the
last day of the then current Interest Period for such DSR Loan or (if
outstanding as an Adjusted Base Rate Loan) will remain as, or (if not then
outstanding) will be made as, an Adjusted Base Rate Loan.

                  (d) The Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the account of
each Bank, upon the request of such Bank through the Agent, such amount or
amounts as shall be sufficient (in the reasonable opinion of such Bank) to
compensate it for any loss, cost or expense which such Bank determines is
attributable to any failure for any reason (i) of any LIBOR Rate Loan, pursuant
to a notice given under SECTION 2.6(B), to occur or (ii) of the Borrower to
convert an Adjusted Base Rate Loan from such Bank to a LIBOR Rate Loan, or to
continue a LIBOR Rate Loan, as and when specified in the relevant notice given
pursuant to SECTION 2.6(B) or 2.6(C).

                  SECTION 2.7 REPAYMENT. (a) The Borrower shall repay the
principal amount of the DSR Loans in full on the Expiration Date.

                  (b) Subject to SECTION 2.7(C), the Issuing Bank shall reduce
the Outstanding Amount by the outstanding principal amount of each DSR Loan.

                  (c) Subject to SECTIONS 2.2 and 6.1, the Issuing Bank shall,
upon receipt of written notice from the Borrower, reinstate the Outstanding
Amount to the extent of any repayment or prepayment of the principal amount of
any DSR Loan.

from time to time on any Business Day, irrevocably notify the Agent in writing
that the Borrower intends to prepay all or any portion (and so stating the
aggregate principal amount to be prepaid) of the DSR Loans then outstanding on a
day which is at least three (3) Business Days after the date of such notice. If
the Borrower delivers any such notice, the Borrower shall, not later than 12:00

                  (b) The Borrower agrees to indemnify each Bank and hold each
Bank harmless from any direct loss (but excluding any indirect, consequential or
incidental loss

                                       10

or damage), cost or reasonable out-of-pocket expense which such Bank incurs as a
result of a prepayment of any DSR Loan bearing interest at the LIBOR Rate on a
date which is not the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto.

                  (c) All prepayments made hereunder shall be applied by the
Agent and the Banks against the principal amount of outstanding DSR Loans (i) as
long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, in the order as
specified by Borrower or, in the absence of such specification, in the order
such DSR Loans were made, and (ii) if an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, in the order as specified by the Agent or, in the absence of such
specification, in the order such DSR Loans were made.

                  SECTION 2.9 SECURITY. The Obligations shall be secured by the
Security Documents, the rights and remedies in respect of which shall be
exercised pursuant to the Lease Indenture.

                  SECTION 2.10 PAYMENTS. (a) The Borrower shall make each
payment hereunder and under the DSR Notes not later than 12:00 noon, New York
City time, on the day when due in United States dollars to the Agent at its
address set forth in SECTION 9.2, in immediately available funds. The Agent will
promptly thereafter cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment
of principal (including reimbursement of Drawings), interest or fees ratably
(other than amounts payable for the account of the Agent or the Issuing Bank
pursuant to SECTION 2.5(A), (C) or (D) or payable pursuant to SECTION 9.4) to
the Banks and like funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to
any Bank to such Bank, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms
of this Agreement.

                  (b) Unless the Agent receives notice from the Borrower before
the date on which any payment is due to the Banks hereunder that the Borrower
will not make such payment in full, the Agent may assume that the Borrower has
made such payment in full to the Agent on such date, and the Agent may, in
reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each Bank on such due
date an amount equal to the amount then due to such Bank. If and to the extent
that the Borrower has not so made such payment in full to the Agent, each Bank
shall repay to the Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such
Bank together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is
distributed to such Bank until the date on which such Bank repays such amount to
the Agent (i) for the first three (3) days of non-repayment, at the Federal
Funds Rate and (ii) thereafter, at the Federal Funds Rate plus 2.50%.

                  SECTION 2.11 COMPUTATION OF INTEREST AND FEES. All
computations of interest and fees hereunder shall be made on the basis of a year
of three hundred sixty (360) days for the actual number of days (including the
first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such
interest or fees are payable. Each calculation and each determination by the
Agent of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all
purposes, absent manifest error.

                                       11
<Page>

                  SECTION 2.12 PAYMENTS ON NON-BUSINESS DAYS. Whenever any
payment hereunder or under any DSR Note is stated to be due on a day other than
a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day,
and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of
payment of interest or fees, as the case may be. If no due date is specified for
the payment of any amount payable by the Borrower hereunder, such amount shall
be due and payable not later than ten (10) Business Days after receipt by the
Borrower of written demand from the Agent for the payment thereof. In connection
with a LIBOR Rate Loan, if an Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day
that is not a Business Day, such Interest Period shall expire on the next
succeeding Business Day; provided that, if any Interest Period would otherwise
expire on a day that is not a Business Day but is a day of the month after which
no further Business Day occurs in such month, such Interest Period shall expire
on the next preceding Business Day.

                  SECTION 2.13 SHARING OF PAYMENTS, ETC. If any Bank obtains any
payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of
setoff, or otherwise) on account of its Commitment or the DSR Loans made by it
(other than pursuant to SECTION 9.4) in excess of its ratable share of such
payments obtained by all of the Banks, then such Bank shall be deemed to have
received such payment as agent for and on behalf of all the Banks and shall
immediately advise the Agent of the receipt of such funds and promptly transmit
the entire amount thereof to the Agent for prompt distribution among the Banks
as provided for in this Agreement and such funds transmitted to the Agent shall
be credited as a payment by the Borrower under this Agreement; PROVIDED that
such Bank so transmitting funds to the Agent shall not be deemed to have
received, and the Borrower shall be deemed not to have made to such Bank (to the
extent funds are transmitted to the Agent) any payment transmitted to the Agent
by such Bank pursuant to this SECTION 2.13.

                  SECTION 2.14 EVIDENCE OF DEBT. (a) The indebtedness of the
Borrower resulting from all DSR Loans made by each Bank from time to time shall
be evidenced by an appropriate notation on the schedule, or a continuation
thereof, to the Debt Service Reserve Letter of Credit Promissory Note
substantially in the form of EXHIBIT B (each a "DSR NOTE"), delivered by the
Borrower to such Bank.

                  (b) The books and accounts of the Agent shall be conclusive
evidence, absent manifest error, of the amounts of all Drawings, DSR Loans,
fees, interest and other amounts advanced, due, outstanding, payable or paid
pursuant to this Agreement or any DSR Note.

                  SECTION 2.15 INCREASED DEBT SERVICE RESERVE LETTER OF CREDIT
COSTS. If, after the date hereof, any introduction of or change in any
Applicable Law (including for purposes hereof, any directive, guideline or
requirement of any Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of
law)) or in the interpretation thereof by any Governmental Authority charged
with the administration thereof either (a) imposes, modifies or makes applicable
any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against letters of credit
issued by, or assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the

                                       12
<Page>

account of, the Agent or any Bank or (b) imposes on the Agent or any Bank any
other condition regarding this Agreement, the Agent, such Bank, the Debt Service
Reserve Letter of Credit or the DSR Loans, and the result of any event referred
to in the preceding clause (a) or (b) is to increase the cost to the Agent or
such Bank of issuing or maintaining the Debt Service Reserve Letter of Credit or
the DSR Loans, reduce the amount of any payment receivable by the Agent or such
Bank hereunder or reduce the rate of return on any Bank's capital as a
consequence of its obligations hereunder below that which such Bank would have
achieved but for such circumstance, then, in each such case, upon demand by the
Agent or such Bank, the Borrower shall pay to the Agent or such Bank, from time
to time as specified thereby on the Monthly Transfer Date, additional amounts
sufficient to compensate the Agent or such Bank for such increased costs,
reduction in payments receivable or reduction in rate of return. A certificate
as to any such additional amount or amounts submitted by a Bank, through the
Agent, to the Borrower and the other Banks shall certify that similar demands
have been made to other customers of such Bank which are subject to similar
provisions and shall, in the absence of manifest error, be final and conclusive.
In determining such amount, a Bank may use any reasonable averaging and
attribution methods. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall only be
obligated to compensate any Bank or Agent for any amount described in this
SECTION 2.15 arising or occurring during (i) any time period commencing not more
than 90 days prior to the date on which such Bank notifies the Agent and the
Borrower that such Bank or the Agent proposes to demand such compensation and
(ii) any time period during which, because of the unannounced retroactive
application of such statute, regulation or other basis, such Bank could not have
known that such amount might arise or accrue.

                  SECTION 2.16 CAPITAL ADEQUACY. If the Agent or any Bank
reasonably determines that compliance with any Applicable Law (including for
purposes hereof, any directive, guideline or requirement of any Governmental
Authority (whether or not having the force of law)) affects or would affect the
amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by the Agent or such
Bank or any Person controlling the Agent or such Bank and that the amount of
such capital is increased by or based upon the existence of such Bank's
Commitment or the issuance of the Debt Service Reserve Letter of Credit or
outstanding DSR Loans, then, upon demand by the Agent or such Bank, the Borrower
shall pay to the Agent or such Bank, from time to time as specified thereby,
additional amounts sufficient to compensate the Agent or such Bank in light of
such circumstances, to the extent that the Agent or such Bank reasonably
determines such increase in capital to be allocable to the existence of such
Bank's Commitment or the issuance of the Debt Service Reserve Letter of Credit
or such DSR Loans. A certificate as to any such additional amount or amounts
submitted by a Bank, through the Agent, to the Borrower and the other Banks
shall certify that similar demands have been made to other customers of such
Bank which are subject to similar provisions and shall, in the absence of
manifest error, be final and conclusive. In determining such amount, a Bank may
use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Borrower shall only be obligated to compensate any Bank or the
Agent for any amount described in this SECTION 2.16 arising or occurring during
(i) any time period commencing not more than 90 days prior to the date on which
such Bank notifies the Agent and the

                                       13
<Page>

Borrower that such Bank or the Agent proposes to demand such compensation and
(ii) any time period during which, because of the unannounced retroactive
application of such statute, regulation or other basis, such Bank could not have
known that such amount might arise or accrue.

                  SECTION 2.17 TAXES. (a) All payments, except as otherwise
provided in SECTION 2.17(C), by the Borrower of principal of, and interest on,
the DSR Notes and all other amounts payable hereunder shall be made free and
clear of and without deduction for any present or future income, excise, stamp
or franchise taxes and other taxes, fees, duties, withholdings or other charges
of any nature whatsoever imposed by any taxing authority, but excluding
franchise taxes and taxes imposed on or measured by any Bank's net income, in
each case, imposed as a result of a connection between the Bank and the
jurisdiction imposing the tax (other than a connection arising solely from the
Bank having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received a
payment under, or enforced, this Agreement) (such non-excluded items being
called "TAXES"). In the event that any withholding or deduction from any payment
to be made by the Borrower hereunder is required in respect of any Taxes
pursuant to any Applicable Law, then the Borrower will:

                  (i) pay directly to the relevant authority the full amount
         required to be so withheld or deducted;

                  (ii) within 30 days after such payment forward to the Agent an
         official receipt or other documentation satisfactory to the Agent
         evidencing such payment to such authority; and

                  (iii) pay to the Agent for the account of the Banks such
         additional amount or amounts as is necessary to ensure that the net
         amount actually received by each Bank will equal the full amount such
         Bank would have received had no such withholding or deduction been
         required.

Moreover, if any Taxes are directly asserted against the Agent or any Bank with
respect to any payment received by the Agent or such Bank hereunder, the Agent
or such Bank may pay such Taxes and, upon receipt of notice from such Bank
within 30 days after such payment, the Borrower will promptly pay such
additional amounts (including any penalties, interest or expenses) as is
necessary in order that the net amount received by such person after the payment
of such Taxes (including any Taxes on such additional amount) shall equal the
amount such person would have received had no such Taxes been asserted.

                  (b) If the Borrower fails to pay any Taxes when due to the
appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to the Agent, for the account of
the respective Banks, the required receipts or other required documentary
evidence, the Borrower shall indemnify the Banks for any incremental Taxes,
interest or penalties that may become payable by any Bank as a result of any
such failure.

                  (c) Each Bank that is not a United States person as defined in
Section 7701(a)(3) of the Code (a "NON-U.S. BANK") shall deliver to the Borrower
and the Agent two copies of either U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 BEN or
Form W-8 ECI, or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto properly
completed and duly executed by such Non-U.S. Bank claiming complete exemption
from, or a reduced rate of, U.S. federal withholding tax on all payments by the
Borrower under this Agreement and the DSR Notes. Such forms shall be delivered
by each Non-U.S. Bank on or before the date it becomes a party to this
Agreement. In addition, each Non-U.S. Bank shall deliver such forms promptly
upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such
Non-U.S. Bank. Each Non-U.S. Bank shall promptly notify the Borrower at any time
it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously
delivered certificate to the Borrower (or any other form of certification
adopted by the U.S. taxing authorities for such purpose). The Borrower shall not
be required to increase any such amounts payable to any Non-U.S. Bank with
respect to any Taxes (i) that are attributable to such Non-U.S. Bank's failure
to comply with the requirements of this Section 2.17(c) or (ii) that are United
States withholding taxes imposed on amounts payable to such Bank at the time the
Bank becomes a party to this Agreement, except to the extent that such Bank's
assignor (if any) was entitled, at the time of assignment, to receive additional
amounts from the Borrower with respect to such Taxes pursuant to Section
2.17(a). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.17(c), a Non-U.S.
Bank shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this Section 2.17(c)
that such Non-U.S. Bank is not legally able to deliver.

                  SECTION 2.18 CHANGE OF LAW. (a) Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Agreement, if any Regulatory Change, or compliance by any Bank
with any Regulatory Change, makes it unlawful or impossible for any Bank to
make, maintain or continue its proportionate interest in any Debt Service
Reserve Letter of Credit or DSR Loan (or commitments therefor), then such Bank
shall promptly give notice together with evidence thereof to the Borrower and
the Agent, and the Borrower shall pay forthwith all amounts outstanding, accrued
or payable under this Agreement to such Bank and cause such Bank to be released
from all obligations of such Bank under this Agreement.

                  (b) A Bank shall (consistent with legal and regulatory
restrictions) designate a different lending office for the DSR Loans (or
commitments therefor) or its participation in the Debt Service Reserve Letter of
Credit affected pursuant to this SECTION 2.18 before giving any notice to the
Borrower and the Agent pursuant to this SECTION 2.18 if such designation will
avoid the need for giving such notice and will not, in the sole opinion of such
Bank, be disadvantageous to such Bank, except that such Bank shall have no
obligation to designate a lending office located in the United States of
America. If Borrower so requests within ten (10) days of receipt of the notice
referred to above (which notice is based on circumstances not generally
applicable to United States or foreign lenders making loans of the types
contemplated hereunder), such Bank shall (consistent with legal and regulatory
restrictions) comply with SECTION 2.20 hereof.

                  SECTION 2.19 NON-AVAILABILITY. (a) If at any time dollar
deposits in the principal amount of any Bank's proportionate interest in, or
obligation under, any DSR

                                       15
<Page>

Loan bearing interest at the LIBOR Rate are not available to such Bank in the
London interbank market for the next Interest Period, such Bank shall so notify
the Agent, who shall so notify the Borrower, and the obligation of such affected
Bank to make or continue or to convert DSR Loans into DSR Loans bearing interest
based on the LIBOR Rate shall be immediately suspended and during such
suspension be converted into an obligation to do the same with respect to DSR
Loans bearing interest at the Adjusted Base Rate; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that
outstanding DSR Loans bearing interest at the LIBOR Rate shall be converted into
DSR Loans bearing interest at the Adjusted Base Rate on the last day of the then
current Interest Period applicable to such DSR Loans.

                  (b) If at any time the Interest Rate then in effect based on
the LIBOR Rate does not adequately and fairly reflect, in the reasonable
judgment of any Bank, the cost for such Bank of advancing or maintaining its
respective proportionate interest in any DSR Loan bearing interest at the LIBOR
Rate during any Interest Period, then such Bank shall notify the Agent, who
shall so notify the Borrower, and interest on such Bank's proportionate share of
the DSR Loans shall for any subsequent Interest Period accrue at the Adjusted
Base Rate.

                  (c) If the Borrower so requests after the suspension of a
Bank's obligation to make DSR Loans bearing interest at the LIBOR Rate under
this SECTION 2.19 for at least ten (10) consecutive Business Days based on
circumstances not generally applicable to United States or foreign lenders
making loans of the types contemplated hereunder, such Bank shall (consistent
with legal and regulatory restrictions) comply with SECTION 2.20 hereof.

                  SECTION 2.20 ASSIGNMENTS BY BANKS. (a) If (i) a Bank is
required to comply with this SECTION 2.20 after a request from the Borrower
pursuant to SECTION 2.17, 2.18 or 2.19 or (ii) the Borrower requests that the
provisions of this SECTION 2.20 apply to a Bank within ten (10) days after it
receives a notice from the Agent that (A) such Bank has failed to make available
to the Agent its portion of any DSR Loan on the date required to be made
available to the Agent pursuant to this Agreement after the Agent has made
written demand upon such Bank for such payment or (B) such Bank has provided the
Agent with notice that such Bank shall not make available to the Agent such
portion of any DSR Loan required to be made available to the Agent pursuant to
this Agreement or (C) such Bank has failed to reimburse the Agent pursuant to
the terms of this Agreement, such Bank shall assign all or a part of its
proportionate share of the DSR Loans and its commitment to make DSR Loans to a
replacement Bank (which may be, but is not required to be, one of the other
Banks) designated by the Borrower; PROVIDED that any assignment or transfer made
by a Bank to a replacement Bank shall satisfy the following conditions: (i) the
Borrower shall promptly pay when due all reasonable fees and expenses which such
Bank incurs in connection with such transfer or assignment and (ii) any
assignment of all or part of the DSR Loans or obligations shall be made without
recourse, representation or warranty, and the Borrower shall cause the
replacement Bank to pay to the Agent for the account of the assigning Bank in
immediately available funds all amounts outstanding or payable under this
Agreement to each Bank assigning its interest in the DSR Loans.

                                       16
<Page>

                  (b) Each Bank agrees that as promptly as practicable after it
has made a determination to make a claim for amounts under SECTION 2.8(B), 2.15,
2.16 or 2.17 with respect to events or conditions arising after the date hereof,
it shall notify the Borrower of the same and use commercially reasonable efforts
(consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions and such Bank's internal
policies) to mitigate the effect of such provisions on the Borrower, including
(i) in the case of SECTION 2.15, 2.16 or 2.17, efforts to make, fund, issue or
maintain its DSR Loans or the Debt Service Reserve Letter of Credit, as
relevant, through another office of such Bank and (ii) in the case of SECTION
2.8(B), efforts to reemploy amounts held by such Bank, (x) if as a result
thereof the additional moneys which would otherwise be required to be paid to
such Bank pursuant to any of such provisions of this Agreement would be reduced,
or the illegality or other adverse circumstances which would otherwise require a
prepayment of such DSR Loans or the suspension of the issuance of, or of
drawings under, the Debt Service Reserve Letter of Credit pursuant to any of
such provisions would cease to exist, and (y) if, as determined by such Bank in
good faith, the making, funding, issuing or maintaining of such DSR Loan or the
Debt Service Reserve Letter of Credit, or the making of drawings under the Debt
Service Reserve Letter of Credit through such other office would not otherwise
adversely affect such Bank.

                  SECTION 2.21 REDUCTION IN COMMITMENTS/DSR LOANS. The Borrower
shall have the right to refinance all Commitments and all of the outstanding DSR
Loans, if any, in whole but not in part, without premium or penalty upon at
least ten (10) days' prior written notice to the Agent; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that
the Borrower agrees to indemnify each Bank and hold each Bank harmless from any
direct loss (but excluding any indirect, consequential or incidental loss or
damage), cost or reasonable out-of-pocket expense which such Bank incurs as a
result of a refinancing pursuant to this SECTION 2.21 of any DSR Loan bearing
interest at the LIBOR Rate on a date which is not the last day of an Interest
Period applicable thereto. In any refinancing of such Commitments, the Borrower
shall cause the Debt Service Reserve Letter of Credit to be released and
returned to the Issuing Bank.

                  SECTION 2.22 RIGHT OF SET-OFF. The Borrower hereby authorizes
each Bank, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of
Default, at any time and from time to time, without notice to the Borrower or
any Person other than the Lease Indenture Trustee (any such notice being hereby
expressly waived by the Borrower to the extent it may legally do so) to set off
and appropriate 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 Bank in any of its offices, wherever located (whether such
deposits or indebtedness be in dollars or in any other currency), to or for the
credit or the account of the Borrower against any and all of the Obligations and
liabilities of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement,
irrespective of whether or not the Agent shall have made any demand hereunder or
thereunder and although such Obligations may be contingent or unmatured. The
Banks agree to promptly notify the Borrower of such set-off and application.

                  SECTION 2.23 MINIMUM AMOUNTS. (a) Anything in this Agreement
to the contrary notwithstanding, the aggregate principal amount of DSR Loans
bearing interest based on the LIBOR Rate shall be in an amount at least equal to
$1,000,000 or in multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and, if any DSR Loans
bearing interest based on the LIBOR Rate would otherwise be in a lesser
principal amount for any period, such DSR Loans shall bear interest based on the
Adjusted Base Rate during such period.

                  (b) Not more than six (6) DSR Loans bearing interest at the
LIBOR Rate may be outstanding at one time.

                                    ARTICLE V

                                    COVENANTS

                  So long as any Commitment is in effect, the Debt Service
Reserve Letter of Credit is outstanding or the Obligations remain unpaid, unless
compliance has been waived in accordance with SECTION 9.1:

                  (a) all of the covenants of the Borrower contained in ARTICLE
VII of the Participation Agreement and ARTICLE V and ARTICLE VI of the Lease
Indenture, in the form of such covenants as they exist as of the date of this
Agreement and as they may hereafter be amended from time to time, but only to
the extent that the incorporation of any such amendments into this Agreement has
been consented to in accordance with SECTION 9.1, are hereby incorporated and
made applicable by reference as if set forth at length in this Agreement;
PROVIDED that each reference to the term "Participation Agreement" or "Lease
Indenture" therein shall be deemed to be a reference to this Agreement; each
reference to the Lease Indenture Trustee or Security Agent therein shall be
deemed to be a reference to the Agent and the Banks; and with any other
appropriate substitutions designed to bestow upon the Agent and the Banks the
benefit of such covenants in the same manner and to the same extent as in the
Participation Agreement and the Lease Indenture, and the Borrower shall observe
and perform all of such incorporated covenants; and

                  (b) the Borrower will not, without the prior written approval
of the Required Banks, terminate, amend or otherwise modify any provision of any
Operative Document if such termination, amendment or other modification would
affect the priority of payments from the Revenue Account under the Amended and
Restated Security Deposit Agreement in a manner adverse to the Agent or any
Bank, amend the Rent Payment Dates in a manner adverse to the Agent or any Bank,
or change the voting requirements under the Lease Indenture in a manner adverse
to the Agent or any Bank.

                  (e) any representation or warranty made by or on behalf of the
Borrower in this Agreement (including by incorporation by reference) or in any
certificate furnished to the Agent or the Banks shall prove to have been false
or misleading in any respect as of the time made, confirmed or furnished and the
inaccuracy has had or is reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect
and such misrepresentation shall continue uncured for thirty (30) or more days
from the date an Authorized Officer of the Borrower obtains actual knowledge
thereof;

                  (f) the Borrower shall fail to perform or observe any covenant

after an Authorized Officer of the Borrower has actual knowledge of such
failure; or

                  (g) the Borrower shall fail to perform or observe any of its
covenants contained (including by incorporation by reference) in any other
provision of this Agreement (other than those referred to in paragraphs (a),
(b), (c) and (e), above) and such failure shall continue uncured for sixty (60)
or more days after an Authorized Officer of the Borrower has actual knowledge of
such failure; PROVIDED that if the Borrower commences and diligently pursues
efforts to cure such default within such sixty (60) day period, the Borrower may
continue to effect such cure of the default (and such default shall not be
deemed as "Event of Default" hereunder) for an additional thirty (30) days so
long as the Borrower is diligently pursuing such cure; or

                  (h) an "Event of Default" under any of paragraphs (a), (b),
(c), (d) or (g) of SECTION 7.1 of the Lease Indenture shall occur and be
continuing; or

                  (i) an "Event of Default" under any of paragraphs (e) or (f)
of SECTION 7.1 of the Lease Indenture shall occur and be continuing.

                  SECTION 6.2 REMEDIES. If any Event of Default (other than an

Agent, declare the Commitments to

                                       21

be terminated, whereupon the same shall forthwith terminate, and, after giving
thirty (30) days' written notice to the beneficiary of the outstanding Debt
Service Reserve Letter of Credit, terminate the Debt Service Reserve Letter of
Credit; or (ii) declare the Obligations and all other amounts payable under this
Agreement and the DSR Notes to be immediately due and payable, whereupon the

immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or further
notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower; or
(iii) terminate the ability of the Borrower to cause reinstatement of the
Outstanding Amount through the reimbursement of Drawings, as contemplated by the
terms hereof. If any Event of Default specified in SECTION 6.1(H) hereof shall
have occurred and be continuing, the Commitments shall terminate automatically,
the full unpaid amount of any outstanding Obligations and any other amounts
payable under this Agreement and the DSR Notes shall be immediately due and
payable, and the ability of the Borrower to cause reinstatement of the
Outstanding Amount through reimbursement of Drawings shall terminate
automatically, in each case without any further action, notice, demand or
presentment.

                                   ARTICLE VII

                            CHARACTER OF OBLIGATIONS

                  SECTION 7.1 OBLIGATIONS ABSOLUTE. The Obligations shall be
absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and shall not be affected or impaired
under any circumstances whatsoever, including the following circumstances:

                  (a) any lack of validity or enforceability of any provision of
any Operative Document;

                  (b) any amendment or waiver of, or any consent to departure
from, any provision of any Operative Document;

                  (c) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right
that the Borrower may have at any time against the Security Agent, any other
beneficiary of the Debt Service Reserve Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom
the Lease Indenture Trustee or any such beneficiary may be acting), any Bank,
the Agent or any other Person, whether in connection with any Financing
Document, the transactions contemplated thereby or any unrelated transaction;

                  (d) any statement or signature in any certificate or other
document presented under the Debt Service Reserve Letter of Credit proving to be
forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect, or any such
statement being untrue or inaccurate in any respect whatsoever;

                                       22
<Page>

                  (e) any exchange, release or nonperfection of any Collateral
or other collateral, or any release, amendment or waiver of or consent to
departure from any Financing Document or any guaranty for any of the
Obligations;

                  (f) payment by a Bank under the Debt Service Reserve Letter of
Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not comply with
the terms of the Debt Service Reserve Letter of Credit;

                  (g) any issuance of additional Permitted Indebtedness; and

                  (h) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or
not similar to any of the foregoing.

                  SECTION 7.2 NO PERSONAL LIABILITY; TERMINATION Except as
may otherwise specifically be provided in the Lease Indenture or in the
Participation Agreement, all payments to be made in respect of the Debt
Service Reserve Letter of Credit, the DSR Notes or under this Agreement shall
be made only from the Indenture Estate, and the Owner Lessor shall have no
obligation for the payment thereof except to the extent that there shall be
sufficient income or proceeds from the Indenture Estate to make such payments
in accordance with the terms of Section 3 of the Lease Indenture, and the
Owner Participant shall not have any obligation for payments in respect of
the Debt Service Letter of Credit, the DSR Notes or under this Agreement. The
Issuing Bank, the Agent, and each Bank hereby each agree that it will look
solely to the income and proceeds from the Indenture Estate to the extent
available for distribution to the Issuing Bank, the Agent or such Bank, as
the case may be, as herein provided and that, except as expressly provided in
the Lease Indenture or the Participation Agreement, (x) none of the Owner
Participant, the Trust Company, the Security Agent, or the Lease Indenture
Trustee, or any Affiliate of any thereof, shall be personally liable to the
Issuing Bank, the Agent or such Bank for any amounts payable hereunder, under
such DSR Note or for any performance to be rendered under this Agreement, any
DSR Note or any Indenture Estate Document or for any liability under this
Agreement, any DSR Note or any Indenture Estate Document, and (y) such
amounts shall be non-recourse to the assets of each of the Owner Participant,
the Security Agent, the Trust Company or the Lease Indenture Trustee, or any
Affiliate of any thereof. Nothing contained in this SECTION 7.2 limiting the
liability of the Owner Lessor shall derogate from the right of the Issuing
Bank, the Agent or the Banks to proceed against the Indenture Estate in
accordance with the Lease Indenture to secure and enforce all payments and
obligations due hereunder and under DSR Notes.

                  In furtherance of the foregoing, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, the Issuing Bank, the Agent and each Bank (and each assignee
of such Person), by their acceptance thereof agrees, as a condition to its being
secured under the Lease Indenture, that neither they nor the Lease Indenture
Trustee will exercise any statutory right to negate the agreements set forth in
this SECTION 7.2.

                                       23
<Page>

                  Nothing herein contained shall be interpreted as affecting the
representations, warranties or agreements of the Owner Lessor expressly made set
forth in the Participation Agreement or the Lessor LLC Agreement.

                  The Issuing Bank, the Agent and each Bank acknowledge and
agree that this Agreement (and the DSR Notes) shall terminate and shall be of no
further force or effect upon the termination of the Lease Indenture in
accordance with the proviso to Section 12.1 thereof (including, without
limitation, upon any sale or other final disposition by the Security Agent of
all property constituting part of the Indenture Estate and the final
distribution by the Security Agent of all moneys or other property or proceeds
constituting part of the Indenture Estate in accordance with the terms
thereof).

                  SECTION 7.3 LIMITED LIABILITY OF AGENT AND BANKS. As among
the Borrower, the Agent and the Banks, the Borrower assumes all risks of the
acts or omissions of the beneficiaries of the Debt Service Reserve Letter of
Credit with respect to the use of the Debt Service Reserve Letter of Credit.
Neither the Agent nor any Bank nor any of their respective officers,
directors, employees or agents shall be liable or responsible for: (a) the
use that may be made of the Debt Service Reserve Letter of Credit or any acts
or omissions of any beneficiaries of the Debt Service Reserve Letter of
Credit in connection with the Debt Service Reserve Letter of Credit; (b) the
form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any
document submitted in connection with the Debt Service Reserve Letter of
Credit or of any endorsement thereon, even if such document or endorsement
should prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate,
fraudulent or forged; (c) payment by the Issuing Bank against presentation of
any document that does not comply with the terms of the Debt Service Reserve
Letter of Credit, including failure of any document to bear any reference or
adequate reference to the Debt Service Reserve Letter of Credit; or (d) any
other circumstance whatsoever in making, delaying to make or failing to make
payment under the Debt Service Reserve Letter of Credit; PROVIDED, HOWEVER,
that the Borrower shall have a claim against the Issuing Bank, and the
Issuing Bank shall be liable to the Borrower, to the extent of any direct, as
opposed to consequential, damages suffered by the Borrower that the Borrower
proves were the result of the Issuing Bank's willful misconduct or gross
negligence in paying under the Debt Service Reserve Letter of Credit or the
Issuing Bank's willful or grossly negligent failure to pay under the Debt
Service Reserve Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the
beneficiary of a draft and certificate strictly complying with the terms and
conditions of the Debt Service Reserve Letter of Credit (unless the Issuing
Bank in good faith believed itself (based upon an opinion of counsel) to be
prohibited by law or legal authority from making such payment). In
furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Issuing Bank may
accept any document that appears on its face to be in order, without
responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or
information to the contrary.

                                  ARTICLE VIII

                                    THE AGENT

                  SECTION 8.1 AUTHORIZATION AND ACTION. Each Bank hereby
appoints and authorizes the Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and
to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated to the Agent by
the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental
thereto. As to any matters not expressly provided for by the Letter of Credit
Documents (including enforcement of and collection under any Letter of Credit
Document), the Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take
any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be
fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of
the Required Banks, and such instructions shall be binding upon all Banks and
all holders of DSR Notes; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Agent shall not be
required to take any action that exposes the Agent to personal liability or that
is contrary to any Letter of Credit Document or Applicable Law. In performing
its function and duties hereunder, Agent shall act solely as the agent of the
Banks and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation
towards or relationship of agency or trust with or for the Borrower or any other
party to any Financing Document.

                  SECTION 8.2 AGENT'S RELIANCE, ETC. Neither the Agent nor any
of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action
taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in connection with any
Letter of Credit Document, except for its or their own gross negligence or
willful misconduct. Without limitation of the generality of the foregoing, the
Agent (a) may treat any Bank that has signed a Commitment Transfer Supplement as
the holder of the applicable portion of the Obligations; (b) may consult with
legal counsel (including counsel for the Borrower or any Affiliate thereof),
independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be
liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in
accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts; (c) makes no
warranty or representation to any Bank and shall not be responsible to any Bank
for any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with
any Financing Document; (d) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire
as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions
of any Financing Document on the part of the Borrower or any Affiliate or to
inspect the property (including the books and records) of the Borrower or any
Affiliate thereof; (e) shall not be responsible to any Bank for the due
execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value
of any Financing Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant
hereto or thereto; and (f) shall incur no liability under or in respect of any
Financing Document by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other
instrument or writing (which may be by telecopier or otherwise) believed by it
to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties.

                  SECTION 8.3 ISSUING BANK AND AFFILIATES. With respect to its
Commitment and participation in the Debt Service Reserve Letter of Credit, the
Issuing Bank shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any
other Bank and

                                       25
<Page>

may exercise the same as though it were not the Issuing Bank or the Agent; and
the term "Bank" or "Banks" shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include
the Issuing Bank in its individual capacity. The Issuing Bank and the Agent and
their Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as trustee under
indentures of, and generally engage in any kind of business with, the Borrower,
any Affiliate thereof and any Person that may do business with or own securities
of the Borrower or any Affiliate thereof, all as if the Issuing Bank and the
Agent were not the Issuing Bank and the Agent and without any duty to account
therefor to the Banks.

                  SECTION 8.4 BANK CREDIT DECISION. Each Bank acknowledges that
it has, independently and without reliance on the Agent or any other Bank or the
Issuing Bank and based on such documents and information as it has deemed
appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this
Agreement. Each Bank also acknowledges that it will, independently and without
reliance on the Agent or any other Bank or the Issuing Bank and based on such
documents and information as it deems appropriate at the time, continue to make
its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement.

                  SECTION 8.5 INDEMNIFICATION. The Banks agree to indemnify the
Agent (to the extent not promptly reimbursed by the Borrower and without
limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), ratably according to the
respective principal amounts of the Obligations then held by each of them and/or
the respective amounts of their Commitments, from and against any and all
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits,
costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may at
any time (including without limitation at any time following the payment of any
Obligations or termination of this Agreement) be imposed on, incurred by or
asserted against the Agent in any way relating to or arising out of any
Financing Document or any action taken or omitted by the Agent under any
Financing Document; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no Bank shall be liable for any
portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions,
judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting solely from the
Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the
foregoing, each Bank agrees to reimburse the Agent promptly upon demand for its
ratable share of any costs and expenses payable by the Borrower under SECTION
9.4, to the extent that the Agent is not reimbursed for such costs and expenses
by the Borrower.

                  SECTION 8.6 SUCCESSOR AGENT. The Agent may resign at any time
by giving written notice thereof to the Banks and the Borrower and may be
removed at any time with or without cause with the written approval of the
Required Banks. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Required Banks shall
have the right to appoint a successor Agent with the consent of the Borrower,
which shall not be unreasonably withheld. If no successor Agent has been so
appointed by the Required Banks, and has accepted such appointment, within
thirty (30) days after the retiring Agent's giving of notice of resignation or
the Required Banks' removal of the retiring Agent, then the retiring Agent may,
on behalf of the Banks, appoint a successor Agent with the consent of the
Borrower (which shall not be unreasonably withheld), which successor Agent shall
be

                                       26
<Page>

a commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States of America or
of any state thereof and having a combined capital and surplus of at least five
hundred million dollars ($500,000,000). Upon the acceptance of any appointment
as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon
succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and
duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from
its duties and obligations under the Financing Documents. After any retiring
Agent's resignation or removal hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this
ARTICLE VIII shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be
taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement.

                  SECTION 8.7 COLLATERAL. (a) Except as expressly provided
herein, the Agent shall have no duty to take any affirmative steps with respect
to the collection of amounts payable in respect of the Collateral. The Agent
shall incur no liability as a result of any private sale of the Collateral.

                  (b) The Banks hereby consent, and agree upon written request
by the Agent to execute and deliver such instruments and other documents as the
Agent may deem desirable to confirm such consent, to the release of the Lien of
the Lease Indenture, including any release in connection with any sale, transfer
or other disposition of the Collateral or any part thereof, in accordance with
the Financing Documents.

                                   ARTICLE IX

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

                  SECTION 9.1 AMENDMENTS, ETC. No amendment or waiver of any
provision of this Agreement or any DSR Note, or consent to any departure by the
Borrower therefrom, shall be effective unless in writing and signed or consented
to (in writing) by the Required Banks (and, in the case of amendments, the
Borrower), and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the
specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and
signed or consented to (in writing) by all of the Banks, do any of the
following: (a) waive any of the conditions specified in ARTICLE III; (b)
increase the Commitments of the Banks or subject the Banks to any additional
obligations; (c) reduce the principal of, or interest on, the DSR Loans or any
fees or other amounts payable hereunder; (d) postpone any date fixed for (i)
payment of principal of, or interest on, the DSR Loans, (ii) reimbursement of
Drawings under the Debt Service Reserve Letter of Credit or (iii) payment of
fees or other amounts payable hereunder; (e) change the percentage of the
Commitments or of the DSR Loans outstanding, or the number of Banks, required
for the Banks or any of them to take any action hereunder or (f) amend this
SECTION 9.1; and PROVIDED FURTHER, HOWEVER, that no amendment, waiver or consent
shall, unless in writing and signed by the Agent in addition to the Persons
required above

                                       27
<Page>

to take such action, affect the rights or duties of the Agent under this
Agreement or any other Letter of Credit Document.

                  SECTION 9.2 NOTICES, ETC. All notices and other communications
provided for hereunder shall be in writing (including by telecopier) and shall

                  SECTION 9.3 NO WAIVER; REMEDIES. No failure on the part of any
Bank or the Agent to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder
shall operate as a waiver thereof, and no single or partial exercise of any such
right shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of
any other right. The remedies provided herein are cumulative and not exclusive
of any remedies provided by law.

                  SECTION 9.4 COSTS AND EXPENSES. The Borrower agrees to pay on

and the Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold the Agent and the Banks harmless
from and against any and all liabilities with respect to or resulting from any
delay in paying or omission to pay any of the foregoing to the extent the
Borrower had notice thereof.

                  SECTION 9.5 APPLICATION OF MONEYS. If any sum paid or
recovered in respect of the Obligations is less than the amount then due, the
Agent may apply that sum to principal, interest, fees or any other amount due
under this Agreement in such proportions and order and generally in such manner
as the Agent shall reasonably determine.

                  SECTION 9.6 SEVERABILITY. Any provision of this Agreement that
is prohibited, unenforceable or not authorized in any jurisdiction shall, as to
such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition,
unenforceability or nonauthorization without invalidating the remaining
provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity, enforceability or
authorization of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

                  SECTION 9.7 LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. (a) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement and the Financing
Documents, the liability and obligation of the Borrower to perform and observe
and make good the obligations contained in this Agreement and the Security
Documents shall not be enforced by any action or proceeding wherein damages or
any money judgment or any deficiency judgment or any judgment establishing any
personal obligation or liability shall be so sought, collected or otherwise
obtained, in each such case, against any officer, director, member, or
shareholder or related Person of the Borrower or any Secured Party, and the
Agent, for itself and its successors and assigns, and on behalf of the Banks,
irrevocably waives any and all right to sue for, seek or demand any such
damages, money judgment, deficiency judgment or personal judgment against any
officer, director, member, or shareholder or related Person of the Borrower
under or by reason of or in connection with this Agreement and agrees to look
solely to the Indenture Estate (as provided in SECTION 7.2) for the enforcement
of such liability and obligation of the Borrower.

                  (b) Further, no director, officer, employee, incorporator,
member, shareholder or Affiliate of the Owner Lessor, as such, shall have any
liability for any obligations of the Owner Lessor under the Debt Service Letter
of Credit, the DSR Notes, this Agreement or for any claim based on, in respect
of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. The Issuing Bank, the
Agent and each Bank hereby waives and releases all such liability. The waiver
and release are part of the consideration for the Owner

                                       29
<Page>

Lessor entering into this Agreement. Such waiver may not be effective to waive
liabilities under the federal securities laws and it is the view of the
Commission that such a waiver is against public policy.

                  (c) The Owner Manager is executing this Agreement and each DSR
Note on behalf of the Owner Lessor solely in its capacity as Owner Manager under
the Lessor LLC Agreement and not in its individual capacity and in no case shall
the Trust Company (or any successor entity acting as Owner Manager under the
Lessor LLC Agreement) be personally liable for or on account of any of the
statements, representations, warranties, covenants or obligations stated to be
those of the Owner Lessor or the Owner Manager hereunder, all such liability, if
any, being expressly waived by the parties hereto and any Person claiming by,
through, or under such party; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Trust Company (or any
such successor Owner Manager) shall be personally liable hereunder for its own
gross negligence or willful misconduct or for its breach of its covenants,
representations and warranties contained herein, to the extent covenanted or
made in its individual capacity.

                  SECTION 9.8 BINDING EFFECT. This Agreement shall be binding
upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, the Agent and the Banks and their
respective successors and assigns, except that the Borrower shall not have the
right to assign any of its rights and obligations hereunder without the prior
written consent of the Required Banks, and, except as provided in SECTION 9.9,
no Bank other than the Issuing Bank shall have the right to assign any of its
rights and obligations hereunder.

                  SECTION 9.9 ASSIGNMENTS AND PARTICIPATIONS. (a) Any Bank may
at any time (with the consent of the Agent, such consent not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed, and the consent of the Issuing Bank, such consent not to be
unreasonably withheld or delayed) sell to one or more banks or other entities (a
"PURCHASING BANK") all or any part of its rights and obligations under this
Agreement and the DSR Notes (which, except in the case of an assignment to a
Person that, immediately before such assignment, was a Bank, shall be equal to
at least $1,000,000) pursuant to a Commitment Transfer Supplement executed by
such Purchasing Bank, such transferor Bank, the Agent and the Issuing Bank. Upon
(x) such execution of such Commitment Transfer Supplement, and (y) delivery of a
copy thereof to the Borrower and payment of the amount of its participation to
the Agent or such transferor Bank, such Purchasing Bank shall for all purposes
be a Bank party to this Agreement and shall have all the rights and obligations
of a Bank under this Agreement, to the same extent as if it were an original
party hereto with the commitment percentage as set forth in such Commitment
Transfer Supplement, which shall be deemed to amend this Agreement to the
extent, and only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of such
Purchasing Bank and the resulting adjustment of commitment percentages arising
from the purchase by such Purchasing Bank of all or a portion of the rights and
obligations of such transferor Bank under this Agreement and the DSR Notes. Upon
the consummation of any transfer pursuant to this SECTION 9.9, the transferor
Bank, the Agent and the Borrower shall make appropriate arrangements so that, if
required, replacement DSR Notes are issued to such transferor Bank and new DSR

                                       30
<Page>

Notes or, as appropriate, replacement DSR Notes, are issued to such Purchasing
Bank, in each case, in principal amounts reflecting their Commitments.

                  (b) Any Bank may, from time to time, sell or offer to sell
participating interests in any DSR Loans owing to such Bank, any DSR Notes held
by such Bank, any Commitment of such Bank or any other interests and obligations
of such Bank hereunder, to one or more banks or other entities (each, a
"PARTICIPANT"), on such terms and conditions as may be determined by the selling
Bank, without the consent of or notice to the Borrower, and the grant of such
participation shall not relieve any Bank of its obligations, or impair the
rights of any Bank, hereunder. In the event of any such sale by a Bank of a
participating interest to a Participant, such Bank shall remain solely
responsible for the performance of such Bank's obligations under this Agreement,
such Bank shall remain the holder of any such DSR Notes for all purposes under
this Agreement, the Borrower, the Agent and the Issuing Bank will continue to
deal solely and directly with such Bank in connection with such Bank's rights
and obligations under this Agreement and such Bank shall retain the sole right
and responsibility to exercise the rights of such Bank, and enforce the
obligations of the Borrower, including, without limitation, the right to approve
any amendment, modification, supplement or waiver of any provision of any Letter
of Credit Document and the right to take action under ARTICLE VI hereof, and
such Bank shall not grant any such Participant any voting rights or veto power
over any such action by such Bank under this Agreement (PROVIDED that such Bank
may agree not to consent to any modification, amendment or waiver of this
Agreement, without the consent of the Participant, that would alter the
principal of or interest on the DSR Loans, postpone the date fixed for any
payment of principal of or interest thereon or extend the term of any
Commitment; PROVIDED FURTHER that if any Participant refuses to consent to any
such modification, amendment or waiver of this Agreement, such Bank may purchase
the participating interests from such non-consenting Participant). No
Participant shall have any rights under this Agreement to receive payment of
principal of or interest on any DSR Loan except through a Bank and as provided
in this SECTION 9.9. The Borrower agrees that, upon the occurrence and during
the continuance of any Event of Default, each Participant shall have the right
of set-off in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this
Agreement and any DSR Notes as set forth in SECTION 2.22 hereof to the same
extent as if the amount of its participating interest was owing directly to it
as a Bank under this Agreement or any DSR Notes. The Borrower also agrees that
each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of SECTIONS 2.15, 2.16 and
2.17 hereof with respect to its participation granted hereunder; PROVIDED that
no Participant shall be entitled to receive any greater amount pursuant to such
Sections than the Bank transferring such participation would have been entitled
to receive in respect of the amount of the participation transferred to such
Participant had no such transfer occurred.

                  (c) Any Bank may, in connection with any assignment or
participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this SECTION
9.9, disclose to the Purchasing Bank or Participant or proposed Purchasing Bank
or Participant any information relating to the Borrower furnished to such Bank
by or on behalf of the Borrower; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that prior to any such
disclosure, the Person receiving such

                                       31
<Page>

disclosure shall sign such confidentiality agreements as is customary for
financings of this kind.

                  SECTION 9.10 INDEMNIFICATION. The Borrower agrees to indemnify
and hold harmless the Agent and each Bank and, in their capacity as such, each
of their respective officers, directors, shareholders, controlling persons,
employees, agents and servants (each an "INDEMNIFIED PARTY") from and against
any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities, obligations, penalties,
actions, causes of action, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements
(including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' and consultants' fees and
expenses) (collectively, "DAMAGES") whatsoever that such Indemnified Party may
incur (or that may be claimed against such Indemnified Party by any Person) by
reason of (a) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material
fact concerning the Borrower or the Collateral, or the omission or alleged
omission to state any fact concerning the Borrower or the Collateral necessary
to make any such statement, in light of the circumstances under which it was
made, not misleading; (b) the issuance and delivery of the DSR Notes; (c) the
use of the proceeds of any Drawing; (d) any reasonable action taken by such
Indemnified Party in protecting and enforcing the rights and remedies of the
Agent and the Banks under the Financing Documents; (e) subject to SECTION 7.3,
the execution, delivery or transfer of, or payment or failure to pay under, the
Debt Service Reserve Letter of Credit; (f) any claim of any Person with respect
to any finder's fee, brokerage commission or other similar sum due in connection
with any Financing Document; or (g) any failure by the Borrower to comply with
any environmental laws; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Borrower shall not be
required to indemnify an Indemnified Party for any Damages to the extent caused
by such Indemnified Party's willful misconduct or gross negligence or breach of
such Indemnified Party's obligations under any of the Letter of Credit
Documents. If any action, suit or proceeding arising from any of the foregoing
is brought against any Indemnified Party, such Indemnified Party shall promptly
notify the Borrower in writing, enclosing a copy of all papers served, but the
omission so to notify the Borrower of any such action shall not relieve the
Borrower of any liability that it may have to any Indemnified Party otherwise
than under this SECTION 9.10 PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Borrower shall not be
liable for any settlement of any such action effected without the Borrower's
prior written consent. In case any such action shall be brought against any
Indemnified Party and it shall notify the Borrower of the commencement thereof,
the Borrower shall be entitled to participate in and, to the extent that it
shall wish, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory
to such Indemnified Party, and after notice from the Borrower to such
Indemnified Party of the Borrower's election so to assume the defense thereof.
The Borrower shall not be liable to such Indemnified Party for any subsequent
legal or other expenses attributable to such defense, except as provided below,
other than reasonable costs of investigation subsequently incurred by such
Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof. The Indemnified Party
shall have the right to employ its own counsel in any such action, but the fees
and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party
unless (i) the employment of counsel by such Indemnified Party has been
authorized by the Borrower, (ii) the Indemnified Party shall have reasonably
concluded that there may be a conflict of interest between the Borrower and the

                                       32
<Page>

Indemnified Party in the conduct of the defense of such action (in which case
the Borrower shall not have the right to direct the defense of such action on
behalf of the Indemnified Party) or (iii) the Borrower shall not in fact have
employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party to assume the
defense of such action.

                  SECTION 9.11 FURTHER ASSURANCES. The Borrower agrees to take
all actions as the Agent shall reasonably request in order to enable the Issuing
Bank, the Banks and the Agent to be entitled to all of the benefits as Lease
Indenture Secured Parties under the Lease Indenture and the Mortgage.

                  SECTION 9.12 GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE DSR NOTES
SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF
NEW YORK WITHOUT REFERENCE TO THE CONFLICTS OF LAW PRINCIPLES THEREOF.

                  SECTION 9.13 CONSENT TO JURISDICTION AND VENUE. Each of the
parties hereto irrevocably (i) agrees that any suit, action or other legal
proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement may be brought in any
court of the State of New York or any court of the United States of America
located in the State of New York, (ii) consents, for itself and in respect of
its property, to the jurisdiction of each such court in any such suit, action or
proceeding and (iii) waives any objection which it may have to the laying of
venue of any such suit, action or proceeding in any of such courts and any claim
that any such suit, action or proceeding has been brought in an inconvenient
forum. Each of the parties 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
SECTION 9.13 shall affect the right of any party hereto to serve legal process
in any other manner permitted by law.

                  SECTION 9.14 HEADINGS. The section and subsection headings
used herein have been inserted for convenience of reference only and do not
constitute matters to be considered in interpreting this Agreement.

                  SECTION 9.15 EXECUTION IN COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be
executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in
separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an
original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same
agreement.

                  SECTION 9.16 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THE BORROWER, THE AGENT THE
ISSUING BANK AND THE BANKS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY
IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY OF
THE CREDIT DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED THEREBY.

demand and dishonor to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. No

                  2. Each Purchasing Bank shall pay to each of its respective
Transferor Banks an amount equal to the purchase price, as agreed between such

Bank will deliver to the Agent its DSR Note[s] . On or prior to the Transfer
Effective Date, the Borrower will deliver to the Agent new DSR Notes for each

required to be performed by it as a Bank and that it will be bound by the

                  9. SCHEDULE ILL hereto sets forth for each Transferor Bank and
each Purchasing Bank the revised Commitment, and/or Commitment Percentage, as
the case may be, of each Transferor Bank and each Purchasing Bank, as well as
certain administrative information with respect to each Purchasing Bank.

                  10. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Commitment Transfer Supplement, if the long-term debt rating of any Purchasing
Bank shall, at any time, be less than a rating of A or the equivalent thereof by
S&P or A2 or the equivalent thereof by Moody's, then the Issuing Bank may, in
its sole and absolute discretion, purchase all or any part (as designated by the
Issuing Bank) of such Purchasing Bank's participating interest hereunder (the
"PURCHASED INTERESTS") (which, if in part, may be limited to the Purchasing
Bank's participating interest in the rights and obligations of the Issuing Bank
under, and in connection with, one or more Debt Service Reserve Letters of
Credit, including, without limitation, the obligations to pay the Issuing Bank
if it is not reimbursed by the Borrower in immediately available funds for any
drawings under such Debt Service Reserve Letter of Credit and to make certain
loans, if any, provided to be made under the Reimbursement Agreement in the
event of certain drawings under such Debt Service Reserve Letter of Credit, all
in accordance with the Reimbursement Agreement) by providing such Purchasing
Bank with at least two Banking Days' prior notice of such purchase and making a
payment to such Purchasing Bank for all outstanding amounts owing to it
hereunder or pursuant to the Reimbursement Agreement in respect of the Purchased
Interests on the date of such purchase as set forth in such notice . Upon any
such purchase of all of a Purchasing Bank's participating interest hereunder,
such Purchasing Bank shall no longer have any rights or obligations as a
Purchasing Bank hereunder or as a Bank under the Reimbursement Agreement or
under any other instruments or documents furnished pursuant thereto. The
Issuing Bank may,

                                      C-4

in its sole and absolute discretion, retain for its own account and/or sell its
interest in all or any portion of the Purchased Interests.

                  11. THIS COMMITMENT TRANSFER SUPPLEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY,
AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT
REFERENCE TO THE CONFLICTS OF LAW PRINCIPLES THEREOF.

                  12. This Commitment Transfer Supplement may be executed in one
or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which
together shall constitute one and the same document.

                  13. Execution of this Commitment Transfer Supplement by the
Agent as set forth below shall constitute the consent of such Person required
pursuant to SECTION 9.9 of the Reimbursement Agreement.

                  IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this
