         which offers have been received for each Interest Period specified in
         the related Money Market Quote Request, (B) the respective principal
         amounts and Money Market Margins or Money Market Absolute Rates, as the
         case may be, so offered and (C) if applicable, limitations on the
         aggregate principal amount of Money Market Loans for which offers in
         any single Money Market Quote may be accepted.

                           (f) ACCEPTANCE AND NOTICE BY BORROWER. Not later than
         (x) 8:30 A.M. (California local time) on the third Euro-Dollar Business
         Day prior to the proposed date of Borrowing, in the case of a LIBOR
         Auction or (y) 8:30 A.M. (California local time) on the proposed date
         of Borrowing, in the case of an Absolute Rate Auction (or, in either
         case, such other time or date as the Borrower and the Administrative
         Agent shall have mutually agreed and shall have notified to the Lenders
         not later than the date of the Money Market Quote Request for the first
         LIBOR Auction or Absolute Rate Auction for which such change is to be
         effective), the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of its
         acceptance or non-acceptance of the offers so notified to it pursuant
         to subsection (e). In the case of acceptance, such notice (a "Notice of
         Money Market Borrowing") shall specify the aggregate principal

                                     -20-
<PAGE>

         amount of offers for each Interest Period that are accepted. The
         Borrower may accept any Money Market Quote in whole or in part;
         PROVIDED that:

                                    (i) the aggregate principal amount of each
                  Money Market Borrowing may not exceed the applicable amount
                  set forth in the related Money Market
                  Quote Request,

                                    (ii) the principal amount of each Money
                  Market Borrowing must be $5,000,000 or a larger multiple of
                  $1,000,000,

                                    (iii) acceptance of offers may only be made
                  on the basis of ascending Money Market Margins or Money Market
                  Absolute Rates, as the case may be, and

                                    (iv) the Borrower may not accept any offer
                  that is described in subsection (d)(iii) or that otherwise
                  fails to comply with the requirements of this Agreement.

                           (g) ALLOCATION BY ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT. If offers are
         made by two or more Lenders with the same Money Market Margins or Money
         Market Absolute Rates, as the case may be, for a greater aggregate
         principal amount than the Borrower determines to accept pursuant to
         Section 2.03(f), the principal amount of Money Market Loans in respect
         of which such offers are accepted shall be allocated by the
         Administrative Agent among such Lenders as nearly as possible (in
         multiples of $1,000,000, as the Administrative Agent may deem
         appropriate) in proportion to the aggregate principal amounts of such
         offers. Determinations by the Administrative Agent of the amounts of
         Money Market Loans shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest
         error.

                           (h) EFFECT ON COMMITMENTS. Any Money Market Loans
         made by a Lender pursuant to this Section shall not reduce such
         Lender's pro rata share of the remaining undrawn Commitments.

                           (i) MATURITY OF MONEY MARKET LOANS. Each Money Market
         Loan shall mature, and the principal amount thereof shall be due and
         payable, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to that
         Money Market Loan.

                  2.04  SWING LINE LOANS.

                           (a) The Swing Line Lender shall from time to time
         from the Effective Date through the day prior to the Termination Date
         make Swing Line Loans in Dollars to Borrower in such amounts as
         Borrower may request, PROVIDED that (i) after giving effect to each
         such Swing Line Loan, (A) the aggregate Swing Line Outstandings shall
         not exceed $25,000,000 and (B) the aggregate outstanding principal
         amount of all Committed Loans, Money Market Loans and Swing Line Loans
         plus the Letter of Credit Liabilities shall not exceed the aggregate
         Commitments, (ii) without the consent of all of the Lenders, no Swing
         Line Loan may be made during the continuation of any Default or Event
         of Default and (iii) the Swing Line Lender has not given at least
         twenty-four hours prior notice to Borrower

                                     -21-
<PAGE>

         that availability under the Swing Line is suspended or terminated.
         Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow under this Section. Unless
         notified to the contrary by the Swing Line Lender, borrowings under
         the Swing Line may be made in amounts which are integral multiples of
         $1,000,000 upon telephonic request by an Authorized Officer made to the
         Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 P.M. (California local time),
         on the Domestic Business Day of the requested Swing Line Loan (which
         telephonic request shall be promptly confirmed in writing by
         telecopier). Promptly after receipt of such a request for a Swing Line
         Loan, the Administrative Agent shall provide telephonic verification
         to the Swing Line Lender that the requested Swing Line Loan is in
         conformity with this Section. Unless the Swing Line Lender otherwise
         agrees, each repayment of a Swing Line Loan shall be in an amount
         which is an integral multiple of $1,000,000. If Borrower instructs the
         Swing Line Lender to debit its demand deposit account at the Swing
         Line Lender in the amount of any payment with respect to a Swing Line
         Loan, or the Swing Line Lender otherwise receives repayment, after
         3:00 p.m. (California local time), on a Domestic Business Day, such
         payment shall be deemed received on the next Domestic Business Day.
         The Swing Line Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent
         of the Swing Line Outstandings each time there is a change therein.

                           (b) The Swing Line Lender shall be responsible for
         submitting invoices to Borrower for such interest. The interest payable
         on Swing Line Loans shall be solely for the account of the Swing Line
         Lender unless and until the Lenders fund their participations therein
         pursuant to clause (d) of this Section.

                           (c) The Swing Line Loans shall be payable on demand
         made by the Swing Line Lender and in any event on the Termination Date.

                           (d) Upon the making of a Swing Line Loan, each Lender
         shall be deemed to have purchased from the Swing Line Lender a
         participation therein in an amount equal to that Lender's percentage of
         the aggregate Commitments TIMES the amount of the Swing Line Loan. Upon
         demand made by the Swing Line Lender, each Lender shall, according to
         such percentage, promptly provide to the Swing Line Lender its purchase
         price therefor in an amount equal to its participation therein. The
         obligation of each Lender to so provide its purchase price to the Swing
         Line Lender shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be
         affected by the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default. Each
         Lender that has provided to the Swing Line Lender the purchase price
         due for its participation in Swing Line Loans shall thereupon acquire a
         pro rata participation, to the extent of such payment, in the claim of
         the Swing Line Lender against Borrower for principal and interest and
         shall share, in accordance with that pro rata participation, in any
         principal payment made by Borrower with respect to such claim and in
         any interest payment made by Borrower (but only with respect to periods
         subsequent to the date such Lender paid the Swing Line Lender its
         purchase price) with respect to such claim.

                           (e) In the event that the Swing Line Outstandings are
         in excess of $10,000,000 on three consecutive Domestic Business Days
         then, on the next Domestic Business Day (unless Borrower has made other
         arrangements acceptable to the Swing Line Lender to reduce the Swing
         Line Outstandings below $10,000,000), Borrower shall request a
         Borrowing in an amount sufficient to reduce the Swing Line Outstandings
         below $10,000,000. In addition, upon any demand for payment of the
         Swing Line Outstandings by the Swing Line

                                     -22-
<PAGE>

         Lender (unless Borrower has made other arrangements acceptable to the
         Swing Line Lender to reduce the Swing Line Outstandings to $0),
         Borrower shall request a Borrowing in an amount sufficient to repay
         all Swing Line Outstandings (and, for this purpose, the limitations
         as to the minimum amounts of Base Rate Borrowings set forth in Section
         2.01 shall not apply). In each case, the Administrative Agent shall
         automatically provide the responsive Loans made by each Lender to the
         Swing Line Lender (which the Swing Line Lender shall then apply to the
         Swing Line Outstandings). In the event that Borrower fails to request
         a Borrowing within the time specified by Section 2.02 on any such
         date, the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be required to,
         without notice to or the consent of Borrower, cause Loans to be made
         by the Lenders under their Commitments in amounts which are sufficient
         to reduce the Swing Line Outstandings as required above. The
         conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.01 shall not apply to
         Loans to be made by the Lenders pursuant to the three preceding
         sentences. The proceeds of such Loans shall be paid directly to the
         Swing Line Lender for application to the Swing Line Outstandings.

                  2.05 CONVERSION AND CONTINUATION OF COMMITTED Loans. So
long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,
Borrower shall have the option at any time (i) to convert all or any part of
its outstanding Base Rate Loans which are integral multiples of $1,000,000
and which are not less than $10,000,000 into Euro-Dollar Loans or (ii) upon
the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to Euro-Dollar Loans, to
continue all or any portion of such Loans equal to $1,000,000 and integral
multiples of $100,000 in excess of that amount as Euro-Dollar Loans or to
convert such Loans into Base Rate Loans.

                  Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent notice
of any such conversion or continuation, substantially in the form of Exhibit
D (each a "Notice of Conversion/Continuation"), no later than 8:30 A.M.
(California local time) at least one Domestic Business Day in advance of the
proposed conversion date (in the case of a conversion to a Base Rate Loan)
and at least three Euro-Dollar Business Days in advance of the proposed
conversion/continuation date (in the case of a conversion to, or a
continuation of, a Euro-Dollar Loan). A Notice of Conversion/Continuation
shall specify (i) the proposed conversion/continuation date (which shall be a
Domestic Business Day in the case of Base Rate Loans and a Euro-Dollar
Business Day in the case of conversion to or continuation of Euro-Dollar
Loans), (ii) the amount and type of the Loan to be converted/continued, (iii)
the nature of the proposed conversion/continuation, (iv) in the case of a
conversion to, or a continuation of, a Euro-Dollar Loan, the requested
Interest Period, and (v) in the case of a conversion to, or a continuation
of, a Euro-Dollar Loan, that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and
is continuing.

                  2.06  NOTICE TO LENDERS; FUNDING OF LOANS.

                           (a) Upon receipt of a Notice of Borrowing or a Notice
         of Conversion\Continuation, the Administrative Agent shall promptly
         notify each Lender of the contents thereof and of such Lender's share
         (if any) of such Borrowing and such Notice of Borrowing or Notice of
         Conversion\Continuation shall not thereafter be revocable by the
         Borrower.

                           (b) Not later than 11:00 A.M. (California local time)
         on the date of each Borrowing, each Lender participating therein shall
         (except as provided in subsection (c) of

                                     -23-
<PAGE>

         this Section) make available its share of such Borrowing in Dollars,
         in federal or other funds immediately available to the Administrative
         Agent at its address referred to in Section 9.01. Unless the
         Administrative Agent determines that any applicable condition specified
         in Article III has not been satisfied, the Administrative Agent will
         make the funds so received from the Lenders available to the Borrower
         at the Administrative Agent's aforesaid address or place.

                           (c) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have
         received notice from a Lender prior to the date of any Borrowing that
         such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such
         Lender's share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume
         that such Lender has made such share available to the Administrative
         Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.06(b)
         and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption,
         make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If
         and to the extent that such Lender shall not have so made such share
         available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender and the Borrower
         severally agree to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on
         demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for
         each day from the date (and including the date) such amount is made
         available to the Borrower to (but excluding) the date such amount is
         repaid to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of the Borrower,
         a rate per annum equal to the higher of the Federal Funds Rate and the
         interest rate applicable thereto pursuant to Section 2.08 and (ii) in
         the case of such Lender, the Federal Funds Rate. If such Lender shall
         repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such
         amount so repaid shall constitute such Lender's Loan included in such
         Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement. If the Borrower pays interest
         under this subsection (c) at the Federal Funds Rate and the Federal
         Funds Rate is higher than the interest rate applicable thereto pursuant
         to Section 2.08, the applicable Lender shall pay the Borrower the
         difference between such rates.

                  2.07  NOTES.

                           (a) The Committed Loans of each Lender shall be
         evidenced by a single Note payable to the order of such Lender for the
         account of its Applicable Lending Office in an amount equal to the
         aggregate unpaid principal amount of such Lender's Commitment.

                           (b) Each Lender may, by notice to the Borrower and
         the Administrative Agent, request that its Money Market Loans be
         evidenced by a separate Note in an amount equal to the aggregate unpaid
         principal amount of such Money Market Loans. Each such Note shall be in
         substantially the form of Exhibit B hereto with appropriate
         modifications to reflect the fact that it evidences solely Money Market
         Loans. Each reference in this Agreement to the "Note" of such Lender
         shall be deemed to refer to and include any or all of such Notes, as
         the context may require.

                           (c) Upon receipt of each Lender's Note pursuant to
         Section 3.02(b), the Administrative Agent shall forward such Note to
         such Lender. Each Lender shall record the date, amount, type and
         maturity of each Loan made by it and the date and amount of each
         payment of principal made by the Borrower with respect thereto, and
         may, if such Lender so elects in connection with any transfer or
         enforcement of its Note, endorse on the schedule forming a part thereof
         appropriate notations to evidence the foregoing information with

                                     -24-
<PAGE>

         respect to each such Loan then outstanding; provided that the failure
         of any Lender to make any such recordation or endorsement shall not
         affect the obligations of the Borrower hereunder or under the Notes.
         Each Lender is hereby irrevocably authorized by the Borrower so to
         endorse its Note and to attach to and make a part of its Note a
         continuation of any such schedule as and when required.

                  2.08 INTEREST RATES. (a) Each Base Rate Loan shall bear
interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for each day from (and
including) the date such Loan is made to (but excluding) the date it becomes
due, at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate for such day PLUS any applicable
Base Rate Margin. Any overdue principal of or interest on any Base Rate Loan
shall, at the option of the Required Lenders, bear interest, payable on demand,

                  (b) Each Euro-Dollar Loan shall bear interest on the
outstanding principal amount thereof, for each day during the Interest Period
applicable thereto (from and including the first day of such Interest Period to

to the sum of (a) the Euro-Dollar Margin for such day PLUS (b) the applicable
London Interbank Offered Rate for such Interest Period. Such interest shall be
payable for each Interest Period on the last day thereof and, if such Interest
Period is longer than three months, at intervals of three months after the first
day thereof.

                  (c) Any overdue principal of or interest on any Euro-Dollar
Loan shall, at the option of the Required Lenders, bear interest, payable on
demand, for each day until paid at a rate per annum equal to the sum of 2%
plus the Euro-Dollar Margin for such day plus the quotient obtained (rounded
upwards, if necessary, to the next higher 1/100 of 1%) by dividing (i) the
average (rounded upward, if necessary, to the next higher 1/16 of 1%) of the
respective rates per annum at which one day deposits in Dollars in an amount
approximately equal to such overdue payment due to the Administrative Agent
are offered to the Administrative Agent in the London interbank market for
the applicable period determined as provided above by (ii) 1.00 minus the
Euro-Dollar Reserve Percentage (or, if the circumstances described in clause
(a) or (b) of Section 8.01 shall exist, at a rate per annum equal to the sum
of 2% plus the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans for such day).

                  (d) Subject to Section 8.01(a), each Money Market LIBOR
Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for the
Interest Period applicable thereto, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of
the London Interbank Offered Rate for such Interest Period (determined as if
the related Money Market LIBOR Borrowing were a Euro-Dollar Borrowing) plus
(or minus) the Money Market Margin quoted by the Lender making such Loan in
accordance with Section 2.03. Each Money Market Absolute Rate Loan shall bear
interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for the Interest Period
applicable thereto, at a rate per annum equal to the Money Market Absolute
Rate quoted by the Lender making such Loan in accordance with Section 2.03.
Such interest shall be payable for each Interest Period on the last day
thereof and, if such Interest Period is longer than three months, at
intervals of three months after the first day thereof. Any overdue principal
of or interest on any Money Market Loan shall bear interest, payable on
demand, for each day until paid at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the
Base Rate PLUS any applicable Base Rate Margin PLUS 2% per annum for such
day.

                                     -25-

frequent than monthly, as may be specified by the Swing Line Lender and in
any event on the Termination Date. Any overdue principal of or interest on

until paid at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Base Rate PLUS any
applicable Base Rate Margin PLUS 2% per annum for such day.

                  (f) The Administrative Agent shall determine in accordance
with the provisions of this Agreement each interest rate applicable to the
Loans hereunder. The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the
Borrower and the participating Lenders of each rate of interest so
determined, and its determination thereof shall be conclusive in the absence
of manifest error.

                  2.09 ADMINISTRATIVE AGENCY FEES. On the date hereof and on
the Effective Date, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent and

                  2.14 OPTIONAL TERMINATION OR REDUCTION OF COMMITMENTS BY
THE LENDERS. Following the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Required
Lenders may in their sole and absolute discretion elect, during the sixty day
period immediately subsequent to the LATER OF (a) such occurrence and (b) the
EARLIER of (i) receipt of the Borrower's written notice to the Administrative
Agent of such occurrence and (ii) if no such notice has been received by the
Administrative Agent, the date upon which the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders have actual knowledge thereof, to terminate all of the Commitments.
In any such case the Commitments shall be terminated effective on the date
which is sixty days subsequent to the date of written notice from the
Administrative Agent to the Borrower thereof, and (a) to the extent that
there is then any Debt evidenced by the Notes, the same shall be immediately
due and payable, and (b) the Borrower shall either cause the return or
termination of all Letters of Credit or provide cash collateral for all
outstanding Letters of Credit.

                  2.15 SCHEDULED TERMINATION OF COMMITMENTS. The Commitments
shall terminate on the Termination Date and any Loans then outstanding
(together with accrued interest thereon) shall be due and payable on such
date.

                  2.16  OPTIONAL PREPAYMENTS.

                           (a) Subject in the case of any Euro-Dollar Borrowing
         to Section 2.18, the Borrower may, upon at least one Domestic Business
         Day's notice to the Administrative Agent, prepay any Base Rate
         Borrowing (or any Money Market Borrowing bearing interest with
         reference to the Base Rate pursuant to Section 8.01(a)) or upon at
         least three Euro-Dollar Business Days' notice to the Administrative
         Agent, with respect to any Euro-Dollar Borrowing, prepay any
         Euro-Dollar Borrowing, in each case in whole at any time, or from time
         to time in part in amounts aggregating $10,000,000 or any larger
         multiple of $1,000,000, by paying the principal amount to be prepaid
         together with accrued interest thereon to the date of prepayment. Each
         such optional prepayment shall be applied to prepay ratably the Loans
         of the several Lenders included in such Borrowing.

                           (b) Except as provided in Section 2.16(a), the
         Borrower may not prepay all or any portion of the principal amount of
         any Money Market Loan prior to the maturity thereof.

                           (c) Upon receipt of a notice of prepayment pursuant
         to this Section, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each
         Lender of the contents thereof and of such Lender's ratable share (if
         any) of such prepayment and such notice shall not thereafter be
         revocable by the Borrower.

                  2.17  GENERAL PROVISIONS AS TO PAYMENTS.

                           (a) The Borrower shall make each payment of principal
         of, and interest on, Loans and Letters of Credit Liabilities and of
         fees hereunder, in Dollars not later than 11:00 A.M. (California local
         time) on the date when due, in federal or other immediately available
         funds, to the Administrative Agent at its address referred to in
         Section 9.01, without offset or counterclaim. The Administrative Agent
         will promptly distribute to each Lender its ratable share of each such
         payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of

                                     -27-
<PAGE>

         the Lenders, in Dollars and in the type of funds received by the
         Administrative Agent. Whenever any payment of principal of, or interest
         on, the Base Rate Loans or Letters of Credit Liabilities or of fees
         shall be due on a day which is not a Domestic Business Day, the date
         for payment thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Domestic
         Business Day. Whenever any payment of principal of, or interest on, the
         Euro-Dollar Loans or Money Market LIBOR Loans shall be due on a day
         which is not a Euro-Dollar Business Day, the date for payment thereof
         shall be extended to the next succeeding Euro-Dollar Business Day
         unless such Euro-Dollar Business Day falls in another calendar month,
         in which case the date for payment thereof shall be the next preceding
         Euro-Dollar Business Day. Whenever any payment of principal of, or
         interest on, the Money Market Absolute Rate Loans shall be due on a day
         which is not a Domestic Business Day, the date for payment thereof
         shall be extended to the next succeeding Domestic Business Day. If the
         date for any payment of principal is extended by operation of law or
         otherwise, interest thereon shall be payable for such extended time.

                           (b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have
         received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any
         payment is due to the Lenders hereunder that the Borrower will not make
         such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume that the
         Borrower has made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on
         such date and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such
         assumption, cause to be distributed to each Lender on such due date an
         amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent
         that the Borrower shall not have so made such payment, each Lender
         shall repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount
         distributed to such Lender together with interest thereon, for each day
         from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date
         such Lender repays such amount to the Administrative Agent, at the
         Federal Funds Rate.

                  2.18 FUNDING LOSSES. If the Borrower makes any payment of
principal with respect to any Fixed Rate Loan (pursuant to Article VI or VIII
or otherwise) on any day other than the last day of the Interest Period
applicable thereto, or if the Borrower fails to borrow any Fixed Rate Loans
after notice has been given to any Lender in accordance with Section 2.06(a),
the Borrower shall reimburse each Lender within 15 days after demand for any
resulting loss or expense incurred by it, including (without limitation) any
loss incurred in obtaining, liquidating or employing deposits from third
parties, but excluding loss of margin for the period after any such payment
or failure to borrow, provided that such Lender shall have delivered to the
Borrower a certificate as to the amount of such loss or expense, which
certificate shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

                  2.19 COMPUTATION OF INTEREST AND FEES. Interest based on
the Reference Rate and all fees hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a
year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year) and paid for the actual number
of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). All
other interest shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and paid
for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding
the last day).

                  2.20 WITHHOLDING TAX EXEMPTION. At least five Domestic
Business Days prior to the first date on which interest or fees are payable
hereunder for the account of any Lender, each Lender that is not incorporated
under the laws of the United States of America or a state thereof agrees that
it will deliver to each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two duly
completed copies of

                                     -28-
<PAGE>

United States Internal Revenue Service Forms 1001, 4224 or W-8 ECI, or their
successor forms ("Tax Withholding Forms"), in each case as required to
demonstrate and certify that such Lender is entitled to receive payments
under the Loan Documents without deduction or withholding of any United
States federal income taxes.

                  Each Lender which so delivers Tax Withholding Forms further
undertakes to deliver to each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent
two additional copies of such forms on or before the date that such form
expires or becomes obsolete or after the occurrence of any event requiring a
change in the most recent form so delivered by it, and such amendments
thereto or extensions or renewals thereof as may be reasonably requested by
the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, in each case certifying that such
Lender is entitled to receive payments under the Loan Documents deduction or
withholding of any United States federal income taxes, unless an event
(including without limitation any change in treaty, law or regulation) has
occurred prior to the date on which any such delivery would otherwise be
required which renders all such forms inapplicable or which would prevent
such Lender from duly completing and delivering any such form with respect to
it and such Lender advises the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that it
is not capable of receiving payments without any deduction or withholding of
United States federal income tax.

                  2.21  LETTERS OF CREDIT.

                           (a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the
         Issuing Lender agrees to issue Letters of Credit hereunder from time to
         time before the tenth day before the Termination Date upon the request
         of the Borrower; PROVIDED that, immediately after each Letter of Credit
         is issued, (i) the aggregate amount of the Letter of Credit Liabilities
         shall not exceed the Letter of Credit Commitment and (ii) the aggregate
         amount of the Letter of Credit Liabilities plus the aggregate
         outstanding principal amount of all Committed Loans, Money Market Loans
         and Swing Line Loans shall not exceed the aggregate Commitments. Upon
         the date of issuance of a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lender shall be
         deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have sold to
         each Lender, and each Lender shall be deemed, without further action by
         any party hereto, to have purchased from the Issuing Lender, a
         participation in such Letter of Credit and the related Letter of Credit
         Liabilities in the proportion their respective Commitments bear to the
         aggregate Commitments. As of the date hereof, the Borrower has
         requested that the Existing Promus Letters of Credit be deemed issued
         hereunder effective as of the Effective Date. On the Effective Date,
         the Existing Promus Letters of Credit shall be deemed issued hereunder
         as Letters of Credit hereunder, Bank of America shall be deemed to have
         released each lender under the Existing Promus Facility from their
         participations therein, and each Lender here under shall be deemed to
         have thereby purchased a ratable participation in each Existing Promus
         Letters of Credit in the manner set forth above in this Section.

                           (b) The Borrower shall give the Issuing Lender notice
         at least five days prior to the requested issuance of a Letter of
         Credit specifying the date such Letter of Credit is to be issued, and
         describing the terms of such Letter of Credit and the nature of the
         transactions to be supported thereby (such notice, including any such
         notice given in connection with the extension of a Letter of Credit, a
         "Notice of Issuance") and shall concurrently submit to the Issuing
         Lender a Request for Letter of Credit and, if required by the Issuing
         Lender, a letter of credit application on the Issuing Lender's then
         standard form for

                                     -29-
<PAGE>

         the issuance of letters of credit. Upon receipt of a Notice of
         Issuance, the Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative
         Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender
         of the contents thereof and of the amount of such Lender's
         participation in such Letter of Credit. The issuance by the Issuing
         Lender of each Letter of Credit shall, in addition to the conditions
         precedent set forth in Article III, be subject to the conditions
         precedent that such Letter of Credit shall be in such form and
         contain such terms as shall be satisfactory to the Issuing Lender
         and that the Borrower shall have executed and delivered such other
         instruments and agreements relating to such Letter of Credit as the
         Issuing Lender shall have reasonably requested. The Borrower shall also
         pay to the Issuing Lender for its own account issuance, drawing,
         amendment and extension charges in the amounts and at the times as
         agreed between the Borrower and the Issuing Lender. The extension or
         renewal of any Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be an issuance of
         such Letter of Credit, provided that even if the Issuing Lender does
         not receive a Notice of Issuance, unless the Issuing Lender has notice
         of any Default or Event of Default, the Issuing Lender may (but shall
         not be required to) permit the automatic extension of such Letter of
         Credit without the requirement of such notice. No Letter of Credit
         shall have a term extending or be so extendible beyond the fifth
         Domestic Business Day preceding the Termination Date.

                           (c) Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter
         of Credit of any notice of a drawing under such Letter of Credit, the
         Issuing Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent and the
         Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and each other
         Lender as to the amount to be paid as a result of such demand or
         drawing and the payment date. The Borrower shall be irrevocably and
         unconditionally obligated forthwith to reimburse the Issuing Lender for
         any amounts paid by the Issuing Lender upon any drawing under any
         Letter of Credit, without presentment, demand, protest or other
         formalities of any kind. All such amounts paid by the Issuing Lender
         and remaining unpaid by the Borrower shall bear interest, payable on
         demand, for each day until paid at a rate per annum equal to the sum of
         2% plus the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans for such day. In
         addition, each Lender will pay to the Administrative Agent, for the
         account of the Issuing Lender, immediately upon the Issuing Lender's
         demand at any time during the period commencing after such drawing
         until reimbursement therefor in full by the Borrower, an amount equal
         to such Lender's ratable share of such drawing (in proportion to its
         participation therein), together with interest on such amount for each
         day from the date of the Issuing Lender's demand for such payment (or,
         if such demand is made after 9:00 A.M. (California local time) on such
         date, from the next succeeding Domestic Business Day) to the date of
         payment by such Lender of such amount at a rate of interest per annum
         equal to the Federal Funds Rate. The Issuing Lender will promptly pay
         to each Lender ratably all amounts received from the Borrower for
         application in payment of its reimbursement obligations in respect of
         any Letter of Credit, but only to the extent such Lender has made
         payment to the Issuing Lender in respect of such Letter of Credit
         pursuant hereto.

                           (d) The obligations of the Borrower and each Lender
         under subsection (c) above shall be absolute, unconditional and
         irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the
         terms of this Agreement, under all circumstances whatsoever, including
         without limitation the following circumstances:

                                     -30-
<PAGE>

                                    (i) any lack of validity or enforceability
                  of this Agreement or any Letter of Credit or any document
                  related hereto or thereto;

                                    (ii) any amendment, waiver of or any consent
                  to departure from all or any of the provisions of this
                  Agreement, any Letter of Credit or any document related hereto
                  or thereto;

                                    (iii) the use which may be made of the
                  Letter of Credit by, or any acts or omission of, a beneficiary
                  of a Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom the beneficiary
                  may be acting);

                                    (iv) the existence of any claim, set-off,
                  defense or other rights that the Borrower may have at any time
                  against a beneficiary of a Letter of Credit (or any Person for
                  whom the beneficiary may be acting), the Lenders (including
                  the Issuing Lender) or any other Person, whether in connection
                  with this Agreement or the Letter of Credit or any document
                  related hereto or thereto or any unrelated transaction;

                                    (v) any statement or any other document
                  presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged,
                  fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein
                  being untrue or inaccurate in any respect whatsoever;

                                    (vi) payment under a Letter of Credit to the
                  beneficiary of such Letter of Credit against presentation to
                  the Issuing Lender of a draft or certificate that does not
                  comply with the terms of the Letter of Credit; or

                                    (vii) any other act or omission to act or
                  delay of any kind by any Lender (including the Issuing
                  Lender), the Administrative Agent or any other Person or any
                  other event or circumstance whatsoever that
                  might, but for the provisions of this subsection (vii),
                  constitute a legal or equitable discharge of the Borrower's or
                  the Lenders' obligations hereunder.

                           (e) The Borrower hereby indemnifies and holds
         harmless each Lender (including the Issuing Lender) and the
         Administrative Agent from and against any and all claims, damages,
         losses, liabilities, costs or expenses which such Lender or the
         Administrative Agent may incur (including, without limitation, any
         claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses which the
         Issuing Lender may incur by reason of or in connection with the failure
         of any other Lender to fulfill or comply with its obligations to the
         Issuing Lender hereunder (but nothing herein contained shall affect any
         rights the Borrower may have against such defaulting Lender)), and none
         of the Lenders (including the Issuing Lender) nor the Administrative
         Agent nor any of their officers or directors or employees or agents
         shall be liable or responsible, by reason of or in connection with the
         execution and delivery or transfer of or payment or failure to pay
         under any Letter of Credit, including without limitation any of the
         circumstances enumerated in subsection (d) above, as well as (i) any
         error, omission, interruption or delay in transmission or delivery of
         any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise, (ii) any
         error in interpretation of technical terms, (iii) any loss or delay in
         the transmission of any document required in order to make a drawing
         under a Letter of Credit, (iv) any consequences arising from causes
         beyond the control of the Issuing Lender,

                                     -31-

<PAGE>

         including without limitation any government acts, or any other
         circumstances whatsoever in making or failing to make payment under
         such Letter of Credit; PROVIDED that the Borrower shall not be
         required to indemnify the Issuing Lender for any claims, damages,
         losses, liabilities, costs or expenses, and the Borrower shall
         retain any claim for damages suffered by it, to the extent found by
         a court of competent jurisdiction to have been caused by (x) the
         willful misconduct or gross negligence of the Issuing Lender in
         determining whether a request presented under any Letter of Credit
         complied with the terms of such Letter of Credit or (y) the Issuing
         Lender's failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the
         presentation to it of a request strictly complying with the terms and
         conditions of the Letter of Credit. Nothing in this subsection (e) is
         intended to limit the obligations of the Borrower under any other
         provision of this Agreement. To the extent the Borrower does not
         indemnify the Issuing Lender as required by this subsection, the
         Lenders agree to do so ratably in accordance with their Commitments.

                  2.22 REGULATION D COMPENSATION. Each Lender may require the
Borrower to pay, contemporaneously with each payment of interest on the
Euro-Dollar Loans, additional interest on the related Euro-Dollar Loan of
such Lender at a rate per annum determined by such Lender up to but not
exceeding the excess of (i) (A) the applicable London Interbank Offered Rate
divided by (B) one minus the Euro-Dollar Reserve Percentage over (ii) the
applicable London Interbank Offered Rate. Any Lender wishing to require
payment of such additional interest (x) shall so notify the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent, in which case such additional interest on the
Euro-Dollar Loans of such Lender shall be payable to such Lender at the place
indicated in such notice with respect to each Interest Period commencing at
least three Euro-Dollar Business Days after the giving of such notice and (y)
shall notify the Borrower at least five Euro-Dollar Business Days prior to
each date on which interest is payable on the Euro-Dollar Loans of the amount
then due it under this Section.

                  2.23 EXTENSION OF TERMINATION DATE. The Termination Date
may be extended once in each year, in the manner set forth in this Section,
on November 30, 2000 and on each anniversary of such date which falls not
less than one year prior to the Termination Date (as theretofore extended)
for a period of one year after the date on which the Termination Date would
otherwise have occurred. If the Borrower wishes to extend the Termination
Date, it shall give written notice to that effect to the Administrative Agent
not less than 90 days nor more than 150 days following the delivery to the
Administrative Agent of the audited annual financial statements of Borrower
in accordance with Section 5.01(b), whereupon the Administrative Agent shall
notify each of the Lenders of such notice. Each Lender will respond to such
request, whether affirmatively or negatively, within 30 days (the "Response
Date"). If a Lender or Lenders respond negatively or fail to timely respond
to such request, but such non-extending Lender(s) have Commitment(s)
aggregating less than 33 1/3% of the aggregate amount of the Commitments, the
Borrower shall, for a period of up to 60 days following the Response Date
(but in any event not later than 15 days prior to the then effective
Termination Date), have the right, with the assistance of the Administrative
Agent, to seek a mutually satisfactory substitute financial institution or
financial institutions (which may be one or more of the Lenders) to assume
the Commitment(s) of such non-extending Lender(s). No Lender which fails to
consent shall be deemed to have consented to a request by the Borrower under
this Section. Not later than the third Domestic Business Day prior to the end
of such period (whether of 60 days or shorter), the Borrower shall, by notice
to the Lenders through the Administrative Agent, either (i) terminate,
effective on the third Domestic Business Day after the giving of such notice,
the Commitment(s) of such non-extending Lender(s), whereupon the Lenders who
have consented to the extension shall continue with

                                     -32-
<PAGE>

their commitments unaffected to lend subject to the terms of this Agreement
to the new Termination Date, or (ii) designate one or more new financial
institutions reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent to assume the
Commitments of such non-extending Lenders, whereupon the aggregate amount of
such Commitment(s) shall be assumed by such substitute financial institution
or financial institutions within such 60-day period or (iii) withdraw its
request for an extension of the Termination Date, in which the Commitments
shall continue unaffected. The failure of the Borrower to timely take the
actions contemplated by clause (i) or (ii) of the preceding sentence shall be
deemed a withdrawal of its request for an extension as contemplated by clause
(ii) whether or not notice to such effect is given. So long as Lenders having
Commitment(s) totaling not less than 66 2/3% of the aggregate amount of the
Commitment(s) shall have responded affirmatively to such a request, and such
request is not withdrawn in accordance with the preceding sentence, then,
subject to receipt by the Administrative Agent of counterparts of an
Extension Agreement in substantially the form of Exhibit K duly completed and
signed by all of the parties hereto (other than non-consenting Lenders), the
Termination Date shall be extended for the period set forth in this Section
2.23 and in the Extension Agreement.

                  2.24 INCREASED COMMITMENTS; ADDITIONAL Lenders.

                  (a) Following the Effective Date, the Borrower may from
time to time, propose to increase the aggregate amount of the Commitments in
accordance with this Section. The aggregate principal amount of the increases
to the Commitments made pursuant to this Section (the amount of any such
increase, the "Increased Commitments"), when aggregated with the principal
amount of any increases to the Other New Facilities made pursuant to Section
2.24 thereof, shall not exceed $500,000,000. Borrower shall provide at least
30 days' notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly provide a
copy of such notice to the Lenders) of any requested Increased Commitments.
Each Lender party to this Agreement at such time shall have the right (but
not the obligation), for a period of 15 days following receipt of such
notice, to elect by notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to
increase its Commitment by a principal amount which bears the same ratio to
the Increased Commitments as its then Commitment bears to the aggregate
Commitments then existing. No Lender which fails to respond shall be deemed
to have elected to increase its Commitment in response to a notice by the
Borrower under this Section.

                  (b) If any Lender party to this Agreement elects not to
increase its Commitment pursuant to subsection (a) of this Section, the
Borrower may designate another lender which qualifies as an Eligible Assignee
(which may be, but need not be, one or more of the existing Lenders) which at
the time agrees to (i) in the case of any such designated Lender that is an
existing Lender, increase its Commitment and (ii) in the case of any other
such lender (an "Additional Lender"), become a party to this Agreement. The
sum of the increases in the Commitments of the existing Lenders pursuant to
this subsection (b) plus the Commitments of the Additional Lenders shall not
in the aggregate exceed the unsubscribed amount of the Increased Commitments.

                  (c) An increase in the aggregate amount of the Commitments
pursuant to this Section 2.24 shall become effective upon the receipt by the
Administrative Agent of an agreement in form and substance satisfactory to
the Administrative Agent signed by the Borrower, by each Additional Lender
and by each other Lender whose Commitment is to be increased, setting forth
the new Commitments of such Lenders and setting forth the agreement of each
Additional Lender to become a party to this Agreement and to be bound by all
the terms and provisions hereof, together

                                     -33-

with such evidence of appropriate corporate authorization on the part of the
Borrower with respect to the Increased Commitments and such opinions of
counsel for the Borrower with respect to the Increased Commitments as the
Administrative Agent may reasonably request.

constitute a default under, any provision of applicable law or regulation or of
the certificate of incorporation or by-laws of the Borrower or of any agreement,
judgment, injunction, order, decree or other instrument binding upon the
Borrower (in the case of any such default under the provisions of any agreement
or instrument binding upon the Borrower, except to the extent that the same
could not reasonably be expected, either individually or in the aggregate, to
have a Material Adverse Effect), or result in the creation or imposition of any
Lien on any asset of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries.

                  4.03 BINDING EFFECT. This Agreement constitutes a valid and
binding agreement of the Borrower and the Notes, when executed and delivered in
accordance with this Agreement, will constitute valid and binding obligations of
the Borrower, in each case enforceable in accordance with their respective
terms.

                  4.04  FINANCIAL INFORMATION.

                           (a) The Pro Forma Combined Financial Statements
         delivered as of the date hereof (i) are derived from (y) the audited
         financial statements of the Borrower set forth in the Borrower's 1998
         Form 10-K, and the unaudited financial statements of the Borrower set
         forth in the Borrower's Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30,
         1999, and (z) the audited financial statements of Promus set forth in
         Promus's 1998 Form 10-K and the unaudited financial statements of

         30, 1999, and (ii) fairly present in all material respects, in
         conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, the pro forma
         combined financial position of the Borrower, Promus and their
         respective Subsidiaries as of such date and their consolidated results
         of operations and cash flows for such fiscal year; and

                           (b) Since December 31, 1998, there has been no
         Material Adverse Effect.

                  4.05 LITIGATION. Except as disclosed in the Form 10-Q reports
dated as of September 30, 1999 for the Borrower and Promus, there is no action,
suit or proceeding pending against, or to the knowledge of the Borrower
threatened against or affecting, the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries before
any court or arbitrator or any governmental body, agency or official in which
there is a reasonable possibility of an adverse decision which could reasonably
be expected to have a Material

                                     -38-
<PAGE>

Adverse Effect or which in any manner draws into question the validity or
enforceability of any of the Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, with respect to the litigation reported in the Form 10-Q
reports as of September 30, 1999, for the Borrower and Promus, (a) the
disclosure contained therein was accurate as of the date thereof, and (b)
since such date there has been no adverse development which would reasonably
be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

                  4.06 COMPLIANCE WITH ERISA. Each member of the ERISA Group
has fulfilled its obligations under the minimum funding standards of ERISA
and the Internal Revenue Code with respect to each Plan and is in compliance
in all material respects with the presently applicable provisions of ERISA
and the Internal Revenue Code with respect to each Plan. No member of the
ERISA Group has (i) sought a waiver of the minimum funding standard under
Section 412 of the Internal Revenue Code in respect of any Plan, (ii) failed
to make any contribution or payment to any Plan or Multiemployer Plan or in
respect of any Benefit Arrangement, or made any amendment to any Plan or
Benefit Arrangement, which has resulted or could result in the imposition of
a Lien or the posting of a bond or other security under ERISA or the Internal
Revenue Code or (iii) incurred any liability under Title IV of ERISA other
than a liability to the PBGC for premiums under Section 4007 of ERISA.

its Significant Subsidiaries have filed all United States federal income tax
returns and all other material tax returns which are required to be filed by
them and have paid all taxes due pursuant to such returns or pursuant to any
assessment received by the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower. The
charges, accruals and reserves on the books of the Borrower and its
Significant Subsidiaries in respect of taxes or other governmental charges
are, in the opinion of the Borrower, adequate.

                  4.08 SIGNIFICANT SUBSIDIARIES. Each of the Significant
Subsidiaries is a corporation duly incorporated, validly existing and in good
standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation, and has all
corporate powers and all material governmental licenses, authorizations,
consents and approvals required to carry on its business as now conducted.

"investment company" within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended.

                  4.10 ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS. The Borrower has reasonably
concluded that Environmental Laws are unlikely to have a material adverse
effect on the business, financial position, results of operations or
prospects of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, considered as a whole.

                  4.11 FULL DISCLOSURE. All information heretofore furnished
by Promus and the Borrower to the Administrative Agent or to any Lender for

affect (to the extent the Borrower can now reasonably foresee), the business,
operations or financial positionof the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken
as a whole, or the ability of the Borrower to

                                     -39-
<PAGE>

perform its obligations under this Agreement. With respect to any projections
or forecasts provided, such projections or forecasts represent, as of the
date thereof, management's best estimates based on reasonable assumptions and
all available information, but are subject to the uncertainty inherent in all
projections and forecasts.

                  4.12 THE PROMUS ACQUISITION. As of the Effective Date, the
Promus Acquisition has been consummated in material compliance with all
applicable laws and all regulatory requirements (including without limitation
the Hart-Scott Rodino Act but excluding any regulatory requirements
consisting of consents to the transfer of liquor licenses); all governmental
and shareholder consents and approvals necessary in connection therewith have
been obtained; all third party consents required in connection therewith have

aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect) and all such consents and
approvals are in force and effect and all applicable waiting periods have
expired without any action being taken by any authority that restrains,
prevents or imposes any material adverse conditions upon the Promus
Acquisition. Giving effect to the Promus Acquisition, as of the Effective

the effect of the Year 2000 Issue on the computer software, hardware and
firmware systems and equipment containing embedded microchips owned or
operated by or for Borrower and its Subsidiaries. The costs to Borrower and
its Subsidiaries which are anticipated as of the date hereof of any
reprogramming required as a result of the Year 2000 Issue to permit the
proper functioning of such systems and equipment and the proper processing of
data, and the testing of such reprogramming, and of required systems changes
are not reasonably expected to result in a Default or to have a Material
Adverse Effect.

<PAGE>

                           (l) from time to time such additional information
         regarding the financial position or business of the Borrower as the
         Administrative Agent, at the request of any Lender, may reasonably
         request.

                  5.02  MAINTENANCE OF PROPERTY; INSURANCE.

                           (a) The Borrower will keep, and will cause each
         Significant Subsidiary to keep, all property useful and necessary in
         its business in good working order and condition, ordinary wear and
         tear excepted, except where failure to do so would not have a material
         adverse effect on the business, financial position, results of
         operations or prospects of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries,
         considered as a whole.

                           (b) The Borrower will, and will cause each of its
         Significant Subsidiaries to, maintain (either in the name of the
         Borrower or in such Subsidiary's own name) with financially sound and
         responsible insurance companies, insurance on all their respective
         properties in at least such amounts and against at least such risks
         (and with such risk retention) as are usually insured against in the
         same general area by companies of established repute engaged in the
         same or a similar business and will furnish to the Lenders, upon
         request from the Administrative Agent, information presented in
         reasonable detail as to the insurance so carried. Notwithstanding the
         foregoing, the Borrower may self-insure with respect to such risks with
         respect to which companies of established repute engaged in the same or
         similar business in the same general area usually self-insure.

                  5.03 CONDUCT OF BUSINESS AND MAINTENANCE OF EXISTENCE. The
Borrower will continue, and will cause each Significant Subsidiary to
continue, to engage in business of the same general type as now conducted by
the Borrower and its Significant Subsidiaries, and will preserve, renew and
keep in full force and effect, and will cause each Subsidiary of the Borrower
to preserve, renew and keep in full force and effect their respective
corporate existence and their respective rights, privileges and franchises
necessary or desirable in the normal conduct of business; provided that
nothing in this Section 5.03 shall prohibit (i) the merger of a Subsidiary of
the Borrower into the Borrower or the merger or the consolidation of a
Subsidiary of the Borrower with or into another Person if the corporation
surviving such consolidation or merger is a Subsidiary of the Borrower and
if, in each case, after giving effect thereto, no Default shall have occurred
and be continuing or (ii) the termination of the corporate existence of any
Subsidiary of the Borrower if the Borrower in good faith determines that such
termination is in the best interest of the Borrower and is not materially
disadvantageous to the Lenders.

                  5.04 COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS. The Borrower will comply, and
cause each Significant Subsidiary to comply, in all material respects with
all applicable laws, ordinances, rules, regulations, and requirements of
governmental authorities (including, without limitation, Environmental Laws
and ERISA and the rules and regulations thereunder), and shall timely file
all material tax returns and pay all material taxes required to be filed by
them and so paid, except in each case where the necessity of compliance
therewith is contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings.

                  5.05 INSPECTION OF PROPERTY, BOOKS AND RECORDS. The
Borrower will keep, and will cause each Significant Subsidiary to keep,
proper books of record and account in which full, true and correct entries
shall be made of all dealings and transactions in relation to its business
and activities;

                                     -43-

<PAGE>

and will permit, and will cause each Significant Subsidiary to permit,
representatives of any Lender at such Lender's expense to visit and inspect
any of their respective properties, to examine and make abstracts from any of
their respective books and records and to discuss their respective affairs,
finances and accounts with their respective officers, employees and
independent public accountants, all at such reasonable times and as often as
may reasonably be desired.

                  5.06 NEGATIVE PLEDGE. None of the Borrower, any Covered
Subsidiary or any Significant Subsidiary will create, assume or suffer to
exist any Lien on any asset now owned or hereafter acquired by it, except:

                           (a) Liens existing as of the Effective Date;

                           (b) any Lien existing on any asset of any Person at
         the time such Person becomes a Subsidiary of the Borrower or at the
         time such Person is merged or consolidated with or into the Borrower or
         a Subsidiary of the Borrower, in each case where the Lien is not
         created in contemplation of such event;

                           (c) any Lien on any asset securing Debt incurred or
         assumed for the purpose of financing all or any part of the cost of
         acquiring or constructing such asset (it being understood that, for
         this purpose, the acquisition of a Person is also an acquisition of the
         assets of such Person); provided that the Lien attaches to such asset
         concurrently with or within 180 days after the acquisition thereof, or
         such longer period, not to exceed 12 months, due to the Borrower's
         inability to retain the requisite governmental approvals with respect
         to such acquisition; provided further that, in the case of real estate,
         (i) the Lien attaches within 12 months after the latest of the
         acquisition thereof, the completion of construction thereon or the
         commencement of full operation thereof and (ii) the Debt so secured
         does not exceed the sum of (x) the purchase price of such real estate
         plus (y) the costs of such construction;

                           (d) any Lien existing on any asset prior to the
         acquisition thereof by the Borrower or a Subsidiary of the Borrower and
         not created in contemplation of such acquisition;

                           (e) any Lien arising out of the refinancing,
         extension, renewal or refunding of any Debt secured by any Lien
         permitted by any of the foregoing clauses of this Section, provided
         that such Debt is not increased (other than to cover any transaction
         costs of such refinancing, extension, renewal or refunding) and is not
         secured by any additional assets;

                           (f) Liens arising in the ordinary course of its
         business which (i) do not secure Debt, (ii) do not secure any single
         obligation in an amount exceeding $50,000,000 and (iii) do not in the
         aggregate materially detract from the value of its assets or materially
         impair the use thereof in the operation of its business;

                           (g) Liens securing Debt of a Subsidiary of the
         Borrower to the Borrower or another Subsidiary of the Borrower; and

                           (h) Liens not otherwise permitted by the foregoing
         clauses of this Section encumbering assets of the Borrower and its
         Subsidiaries having an aggregate fair

                                      -44-
<PAGE>

         market value which is not in excess of 10% of Consolidated Net Tangible
         Assets (determined, in each case, by reference to the Pro Forma
         Combined Financial Statements or, if then delivered, as of the most
         recent date for which Borrower has delivered its financial statements
         under Section 5.01(b) or Section 5.01(c), as applicable).

                  5.07 CONSOLIDATIONS, MERGERS AND SALES OF ASSETS. The
Borrower will not (i) consolidate or merge with or into any other Person or
(ii) sell, lease or otherwise transfer all or any substantial part of the
assets of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to any other
Person; PROVIDED that, the Borrower may merge with another Person if (A) the
Borrower is the corporation surviving such merger and (B) immediately after
giving effect to such merger, no Default shall have occurred and be
continuing.

                  5.08 USE OF PROCEEDS. The proceeds of the Loans made under
this Agreement will be used by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries for general
corporate purposes, including but not limited to (a) on the Effective Date,
to (i) finance a portion of the cash consideration payable in connection with
the Promus Acquisition, and (ii) to refinance all of the outstanding
obligations under the Existing Promus Facility, and (iii) to pay
transactional and other expenses associated herewith, with the Promus
Acquisition, the refinancing of the Existing Promus Facility and the
amendment of the Existing Hilton Facility and Existing Hawaiian Village
Facility, and (b), thereafter, for working capital, capital expenditures, the
back stop of commercial paper and the acquisition of full-service hotel and
resort properties. None of such proceeds will be used, directly or
indirectly, for the purpose, whether immediate, incidental or ultimate, of
buying or carrying any "margin stock" within the meaning of Regulation U in
any manner that would violate Regulation X or result in a violation of
Regulation U.

                  5.09 LEVERAGE RATIO. The Leverage Ratio will not, as of the
last day of any fiscal quarter of Borrower described in the matrix below,
exceed the ratio set forth opposite that fiscal quarter:

operated by or for Borrower and its Subsidiaries required as a result of the
Year 2000 Issue to permit the proper functioning of such computer systems and

                                      -45-

continuance of any Event of Default, it shall, if requested by the
Administrative Agent upon the instruction of the Required Lenders, pay to the
Administrative Agent an amount in immediately available funds (which funds
shall be held as collateral pursuant to arrangements satisfactory to the

                            THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

                  7.01 APPOINTMENT AND AUTHORIZATION. Each Lender irrevocably
appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as agent
on its behalf and to exercise such powers under the Loan Documents as are
delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof,
together with all such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.

                  7.02 ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND AFFILIATES. Bank of America
shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other
Lender and may exercise or refrain from exercising the same as though it were
not the Administrative Agent, and Bank of America and its affiliates may
accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of
business with, the Borrower or any Subsidiary or affiliate of the Borrower as
if it were not the Administrative Agent hereunder.

                  7.03 ACTION BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT. The obligations of
the Administrative Agent hereunder are only those expressly set forth herein.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent
shall not be required to take any action with respect to any Default, except
as expressly provided in Article VI.

                  7.04 CONSULTATION WITH EXPERTS. The Administrative Agent
may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower),
independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not
be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in
accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts.

                  7.05 LIABILITY OF AGENT. Neither the Administrative Agent
nor any of its respective affiliates nor any of the respective directors,
officers, agents or employees of any of the foregoing shall be liable for any
action taken or not taken by it in connection herewith (i) with the consent
or at the request of the Required Lenders or (ii) in the absence of its own
gross negligence or willful misconduct. Neither the Administrative Agent nor
any of its respective affiliates nor any of the respective directors,
officers, agents or employees of any of the foregoing shall be responsible
for or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into or verify (a) any statement,
warranty or representation made in connection with this Agreement or any
borrowing hereunder; (b) the performance or observance of any of the
covenants or agreements of the Borrower; (c) the satisfaction of any
condition specified in Article III, except in the case of the Administrative
Agent receipt of items required to be delivered to it; or (d) the validity,
effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, the Notes or any other
instrument or writing furnished in connection herewith. The Administrative
Agent shall incur no liability by acting in reliance upon any notice,
consent, certificate, statement, or other writing (which may be a bank wire,
telex, facsimile transmission or similar writing) believed by it to be
genuine or to be signed by the proper party or parties.

                  7.06 INDEMNIFICATION. Each Lender shall, ratably in
accordance with its Commitment, indemnify the Administrative Agent, the
Issuing Lender, their affiliates and their respective directors, officers,
agents and employees (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower) against
any cost, expense (including counsel fees and disbursements), claim, demand,
action, loss or liability (except such as result from such indemnitees' gross
negligence or willful misconduct) that

                                      -50-
<PAGE>

such indemnitees may suffer or incur in connection with the Administrative
Agent's and Issuing Lender's roles under this Agreement or any related action
taken or omitted by such indemnitees hereunder.

                  7.07 CREDIT DECISION. Each Lender acknowledges that it has,
independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Lead
Arranger or any other Lender, 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 Lender also acknowledges that it will,
independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Lead
Arranger or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as
it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit
decisions in taking or not taking any action under this Agreement.

                  7.08 SUCCESSOR AGENT. The Administrative Agent may resign
at any time subject to the appointment of a successor Administrative Agent by
giving notice to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the
Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative
Agent with the consent of the Borrower, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided that no such consent shall be
required if the successor Administrative Agent is a Lender. If no successor
Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed, and shall have accepted
such appointment, within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent's
giving of notice of resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may,
on behalf of the Lenders, and without the Borrower's consent, appoint a
successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a commercial bank organized or
licensed under the laws of the United States of America or of any State
thereof and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $1,000,000,000.
Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a
successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall
thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights and duties of the
retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be
discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. After any retiring
Administrative Agent's resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the
provisions of this Article shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken
or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent.

                  7.09 ADMINISTRATIVE AGENTS' FEES. The Borrower shall pay to
the Administrative Agent for its own account fees in the amounts and at the
times previously agreed upon between the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent pursuant to a letter agreement.

                                  ARTICLE VIII

                             CHANGE IN CIRCUMSTANCES

                  8.01 BASIS FOR DETERMINING INTEREST RATE INADEQUATE OR
UNFAIR. If on or prior to the first day of any Interest Period for any Fixed
Rate Borrowing:

                           (a) the Administrative Agent is advised by the
         Required Lenders that deposits in Dollars and in the required amounts
         are not being offered to the Lenders in the relevant market for such
         Interest Period, or

                           (b) in the case of a Committed Borrowing, the
         Required Lenders advise the Administrative Agent that the London
         Interbank Offered Rate, as determined by the Administrative Agent, will
         not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding
         their Euro-Dollar Loans for such Interest Period,

the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the Borrower and
the Lenders, whereupon until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that
the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, the
obligations of the Lenders to make Euro-Dollar Loans shall be suspended. Unless
the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent at least two Domestic Business
Days before the date of any Fixed Rate Borrowing for which a Notice of Borrowing
has previously been given that it elects not to borrow on such date, (i) if such
Fixed Rate Borrowing is a Committed Borrowing, such Borrowing shall instead be
made as a Base Rate Borrowing and (ii) if such Fixed Rate Borrowing is a Money
Market LIBOR Borrowing, the Money Market LIBOR Loans comprising such Borrowing
shall bear interest for each day from and including the first day to but
excluding the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto at the rate
applicable to Base Rate Loans for such day. The Administrative Agent shall
promptly notify the Lenders of any election by the Borrower pursuant to the
preceding sentence.

                  8.02 ILLEGALITY. If, after the date of this Agreement, the
adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in any
applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or
administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or
comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof,
or compliance by any Lender (or its Euro-Dollar Lending Office) with any
request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such
authority, central bank or comparable agency shall make it unlawful or
impossible for any Lender (or its Euro-Dollar Lending Office) to make,
maintain or fund its Euro-Dollar Loans and such Lender shall so notify the
Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice
thereof to the other Lenders and the Borrower, whereupon until such Lender
notifies the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that the circumstances
giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, the obligation of such Lender
to make Euro-Dollar Loans shall be suspended. Before giving any notice to the
Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section, such Lender shall designate a
different Euro-Dollar Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need
for giving such notice and will not, in the sole judgment of such Lender, be
otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. If such Lender shall determine that
it may not lawfully continue to maintain and fund any of its outstanding
Euro-Dollar Loans to maturity and shall so specify in such notice, the
Borrower shall immediately prepay in full the then outstanding principal
amount of each such Euro-Dollar Loan, together with accrued interest thereon.
Concurrently with prepaying each such Euro-Dollar Loan, the Borrower shall
borrow a Base

                                      -52-
<PAGE>

Rate Loan in an equal principal amount from such Lender (on which interest
and principal shall be payable contemporaneously with the related Euro-Dollar
Loans of the other Lenders), and such Lender shall make such a Base Rate Loan.

                  8.03  INCREASED COST AND REDUCED RETURN.

                           (a) If after (x) the Effective Date, in the case of
         any Committed Loan or Letter of Credit or any obligation to make
         Committed Loans or issue or participate in any Letter of Credit or (y)
         the date of the related Money Market Quote, in the case of any Money
         Market Loan, the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation, or
         any change in any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in
         the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental
         authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the
         interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender
         (or its Applicable Lending Office) with any request or directive
         (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central
         bank or comparable agency:

                                    (i) shall subject any Lender (or its
                  Applicable Lending Office) to any tax, duty or other charge
                  with respect to its Fixed Rate Loans, its Note or its
                  obligation to make Fixed Rate Loans or its obligations
                  hereunder in respect of Letters of Credit (other than Excluded
                  Taxes), or shall change the basis of taxation of payments to
                  any Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office) of the principal
                  of or interest on its Fixed Rate Loans or any other amounts
                  due under this Agreement in respect of its Fixed Rate Loans or
                  its obligation to make Fixed Rate Loans (except for changes in
                  the rate of tax on the overall net income of such Lender or
                  its Applicable Lending Office imposed by the jurisdiction in
                  which such Lender's principal executive office or Applicable
                  Lending Office is located); or

                                    (ii) shall impose, modify or deem applicable
                  any reserve (including, without limitation, any such
                  requirement imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal
                  Reserve System, but excluding, with respect to any Euro-Dollar
                  Loan any such requirement included in the Euro-Dollar Reserve
                  Percentage), special deposit, insurance assessment or similar
                  requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the
                  account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (or its
                  Applicable Lending Office) or shall impose on any Lender (or
                  its Applicable Lending Office) or on the United States market
                  for certificates of deposit or the London interbank market any
                  other condition affecting its Fixed Rate Loans, its Note or
                  its obligation to make Fixed Rate Loans or its obligations
                  hereunder in respect to Letters of Credit;

         and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such
         Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office) of making or maintaining any
         Fixed Rate Loan or of issuing or participating in any Letter of Credit,
         or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such
         Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office) under this Agreement or under
         its Note with respect thereto, by an amount deemed by such Lender to be
         material, then, subject to clause (d) of this Section, within 15 days
         after demand by such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent),
         the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts
         as will compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduction.

                                      -53-
<PAGE>

                           (b) If, after the Effective Date, any Lender shall
         have determined that any applicable law, rule or regulation regarding
         capital adequacy (irrespective of the actual timing of the adoption or
         implementation thereof and including, without limitation, any law or
         regulation adopted pursuant to the July 1988 report of the Basle
         Committee on Banking Regulations and Supervisory Practices) or any
         change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration
         thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable
         agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or
         compliance by any Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office) with any
         request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having
         the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable
         agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on
         capital of such Lender (or its Parent) as a consequence of such
         Lender's obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender
         (or its Parent) could have achieved but for such law, regulation,
         change or compliance (taking into consideration its policies with
         respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be
         material, then, subject to clause (d) of this Section, from time to
         time, within 15 days after demand by such Lender (with a copy to the
         Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such
         additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender (or its
         Parent) for such reduction.

                           (c) Each Lender will promptly notify the Borrower and
         the Administrative Agent of any event of which it has knowledge,
         occurring after the date hereof, which will entitle such Lender to
         compensation pursuant to this Section and will designate a different
         Applicable Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for,
         or reduce the amount of, such compensation and will not, in the sole
         judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

                           (d) Borrower shall not be required to reimburse any
         Lender for any increased costs, reductions or payments under this
         Section arising prior to 90 days preceding the date of any claim or
         demand by a Lender for compensation under this Section except to the
         extent the applicable law or regulation is imposed retroactively and
         the demand or claim is made within 90 days of the effect (in which case
         such claim or demand shall be submitted within 90 days of the date upon
         which such Lender becomes aware or should reasonably be aware of such
         law or regulation). A certificate of any Lender claiming compensation
         under this Section and setting forth the additional amount or amounts
         to be paid to it hereunder (with detail sufficient to allow the
         verification by Borrower of its calculations) shall be conclusive in
         the absence of manifest error. In determining such amount, such Lender
         may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.

                  8.04 BASE RATE LOANS SUBSTITUTED FOR AFFECTED FIXED RATE
LOANS. If (i) the obligation of any Lender to make Euro-Dollar Loans has been
suspended pursuant to Section 8.02 or (ii) any Lender has demanded
compensation under Section 8.03(a) and the Borrower shall, by at least five
Euro-Dollar Business Days' prior notice to such Lender through the
Administrative Agent, have elected that the provisions of this Section shall
apply to such Lender, then, unless and until such Lender notifies the
Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension or demand for
compensation no longer exist:

                           (a) all Loans which would otherwise be made by such
         Lender as Euro-Dollar Loans shall be made instead as Base Rate Loans
         (on which interest and principal shall be payable contemporaneously
         with the related Fixed Rate Loans of the other Lenders), and

                           (b) after each of its Euro-Dollar Loans has been
         repaid, all payments of principal which would otherwise be applied to
         repay such Fixed Rate Loans shall be applied to repay its Base Rate
         Loans instead.

is deposited in the mails with first class postage prepaid, addressed as

Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lender under Article II or Article VIII
shall not be effective until received.

                  9.02 NO WAIVERS. No failure or delay by the Administrative
Agent or any Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or
under any Note shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial
exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise
of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided
shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

                  9.03  EXPENSES; DOCUMENTARY TAXES; INDEMNIFICATION.

                           (a) The Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable

         Arranger, including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for
         the Administrative Agent (including the allocated fees and expenses of

         Agreement and all related documents, the negotiation, closing and
         syndication of this Agreement and the Loans (including due diligence
         with respect thereto), the administration of this Agreement and the
         Loans, and in connection with any waiver, amendment or consent
         hereunder or any amendment hereof or any Default or alleged Default
         hereunder and (ii) if an Event of Default occurs, all reasonable
         out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the
         Issuing Lender, the Swing Line Lender or any Lender, including fees and
         disbursements of counsel (including the allocated fees and expenses of
         any internal counsel), in connection with such Event of Default and
         collection, bankruptcy, insolvency and other enforcement proceedings
         resulting therefrom. The Borrower shall indemnify each Lender and the
         Swing Line Lender against any transfer taxes, documentary taxes,
         mortgage recording taxes, assessments or charges made by any
         governmental authority by reason of the execution and delivery or
         enforcement of any of the Loan Documents.

                           (b) The Borrower agrees to indemnify the
         Administrative Agent, the Lead Arranger, the Issuing Lender, the Swing
         Line Lender and each Lender, their respective affiliates and the
         respective directors, officers, agents and employees of the foregoing

         losses, damages, costs and expenses of any kind, including, without
         limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel
         (including the allocated fees and expenses of any internal counsel),
         which may be incurred by such Indemnitee in connection with any
         investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding (whether or not
         such Indemnitee shall be designated a party thereto) brought or
         threatened relating to or arising out of the Promus Acquisition, the
         Promus Merger Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby, this
         Agreement or any actual or proposed use of proceeds of Loans
         hereunder; provided that no Indemnitee shall have the right to be
         indemnified hereunder for such Indemnitee's own gross negligence or
         willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.

                  9.04 AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS. No amendment or waiver of the
terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be made or be
effective unless such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed by the
Borrower and the Required Lenders (and, if the rights or duties of the
Administrative Agent, the Swing Line Lender or the Issuing Lender are
affected thereby, by the Administrative Agent, the Swing Line Lender or the
Issuing Lender, as relevant); provided that no such amendment or waiver
shall, unless signed by all the Lenders, (i) except as provided in Section
2.24, increase or decrease the amount of the Commitment of any Lender (except
for a ratable decrease in the Commitments of all Lenders) or subject any
Lender to any additional obligation, (ii) reduce the principal of or rate of
interest on any Loan or reduce the amount to be reimbursed in respect of any

thereon or any fees hereunder, or the Termination Date, (iv) change the
percentage of the Commitments or of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of
the Notes and Letter of Credit Liabilities, or the percentage of Lenders,
which shall be required for the Lenders or any of them to take any action
under this Section or any other provision of this Agreement or (v) render
more restrictive the ability of any Lender to assign or grant participations
in its Commitment under Section 9.05.

                  9.05  SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS.

                           (a) This Agreement and the other Loan Documents to
         which Borrower is a party will be binding upon and inure to the benefit
         of Borrower, the Administrative Agent, each of the Lenders, and their
         respective successors and permitted assigns, EXCEPT that the Borrower
         may not assign its rights hereunder or thereunder or any interest
         herein or therein without the prior written consent of all the Lenders.
         Each Lender represents that it is not acquiring its Note with a view to
         the distribution thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act of
         1933, as amended (subject to any requirement that disposition of such
         Note must be within the control of such Lender). Any Lender may at any
         time pledge its Note or any other instrument evidencing its rights as a
         Lender under this Agreement to a Federal Reserve Bank, but no such
         pledge shall release that Lender from its obligations hereunder or
         grant to such Federal Reserve Bank the rights of a Lender hereunder
         absent foreclosure of such pledge.

                           (b) From time to time following the Effective Date,
         each Lender may assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or any
         portion of its Commitment; PROVIDED that (i) such Eligible Assignee, if
         not then a Lender or an Affiliate of the assigning Lender, shall be
         approved by each of the Administrative Agent and (if no Default or
         Event of Default then exists) the Borrower (neither of which approvals
         shall be unreasonably withheld or delayed),

                                      -57-

<PAGE>

         (ii) such assignment shall be evidenced by an Assignment and
         Assumption Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit J, a copy
         of which shall be furnished to the Administrative Agent as hereinbelow
         provided, (iii) EXCEPT in the case of an assignment to an Affiliate
         of the assigning Lender, to another Lender or of the entire remaining
         Commitment of the assigning Lender, the assignment shall not assign a
         portion of the Commitments that is equivalent to less than $5,000,000,
         and (iv) the effective date of any such assignment shall be as
         specified in the Assignment and Assumption Agreement, but not earlier
         than the date which is five Domestic Business Days after the date the
         Administrative Agent has received the Assignment and Assumption
         Agreement. Upon the effective date of the Assignment and Assumption
         Agreement, the Eligible Assignee named therein shall be a Lender for
         all purposes of this Agreement, with the Commitment therein set forth
         and, to the extent of such Commitment, the assigning Lender shall be
         released from its further obligations under this Agreement. Borrower
         agrees that it shall execute and deliver (against delivery by the
         assigning Lender to Borrower of its Note) to such assignee Lender, a
         Note evidencing that assignee Lender's Commitment, and to the
         assigning Lender, a Note evidencing the remaining Commitment retained
         by the assigning Lender.

                           (c) By executing and delivering an Assignment and
         Assumption Agreement, the Eligible Assignee thereunder acknowledges and
         agrees that: (i) other than the representation and warranty that it is
         the legal and beneficial owner of the Commitment being assigned thereby
         free and clear of any adverse claim, the assigning Lender has made no
         representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect
         to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in
         connection with this Agreement or the execution, legality, validity,
         enforceability, genuineness or sufficiency of this Agreement or any
         other Loan Document; (ii) the assigning Lender has made no
         representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect
         to the financial condition of Borrower or the performance by Borrower
         of its obligations under this Agreement; (iii) it has received a copy
         of this Agreement, together with copies of the most recent financial
         statements delivered pursuant to Section 5.01 and such other documents
         and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit
         analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Assumption
         Agreement; (iv) it will, independently and without reliance upon the
         Administrative Agent or any Lender and based on such documents and
         information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make
         its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this
         Agreement; (v) it appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to
         take such action and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as
         are delegated to the Administrative Agent by this Agreement; and (vi)
         it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations
         which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it
         as a Lender.

                           (d) The Administrative Agent shall maintain a copy of
         each Assignment and Assumption Agreement delivered to it and a register
         (the "Register") of the names and address of each of the Lenders and
         the Commitment held by each Lender, giving effect to each Assignment
         and Assumption Agreement. The Register shall be available during normal
         business hours for inspection by Borrower or any Lender upon reasonable
         prior notice to the Administrative Agent. After receipt of a completed
         Assignment and Assumption Agreement executed by any Lender and an
         Eligible Assignee (including without limitation any existing Lender),
         and receipt of an assignment fee of $3,500 from such Lender or Eligible
         Assignee,

                                      -58-

<PAGE>

         the Administrative Agent shall, promptly following the effective date
         thereof, provide to Borrower and the affected Lenders notice of such
         effectiveness. Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders
         shall deem and treat the Persons listed as Lenders in the Register
         as the holders and owners of the Commitments listed therein for all
         purposes hereof, and no assignment or transfer of any Commitment
         shall be effective, in each case unless and until an Assignment and
         Assumption Agreement effecting the assignment or transfer thereof
         shall have been accepted by the Administrative Agent and recorded in
         the Register as provided above. Prior to such recordation, all
         amounts owed with respect to the applicable Commitment shall be owed
         to the Lender listed in the Register as the owner thereof, and any
         request, authority or consent of any Person who, at the time of
         making such request or giving such authority or consent, is listed
         in the Register as a Lender shall be conclusive and binding on
         any subsequent holder, assignee or transferee of the corresponding
         Commitment.

                           (e) Each Lender may from time to time grant
         participations to one or more Lenders or other financial institutions
         (INCLUDING another Lender) in its Commitment; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that
         (i) such Lender's obligations under this Agreement shall remain
         unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the
         other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) the
         participating Lenders or other financial institutions shall not be a
         Lender hereunder for any purpose (provided that the participation
         agreement may provide for a Lender to allow the participant the
         derivative benefit of Sections 2.23, 8.03 and 9.03, but such derivative
         benefits shall not increase the overall cost to Borrower under such
         Sections), (iv) Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other
         Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in
         connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this
         Agreement, (v) the participation interest shall be expressed as a
         percentage of the granting Lender's Commitment as it then exists and
         shall not restrict an increase in the Commitments, or in the granting
         Lender's Commitment, so long as the amount of the participation
         interest is not affected thereby and (vi) the consent of the holder of
         such participation interest shall not be required for amendments or
         waivers of provisions of the Loan Documents OTHER THAN those which (A)
         result in a decrease in fees, interest rate spreads or principal
         payable to the holder of such participation, (B) increase the
         Commitment of the granting Lenders and thereby increase the funding
         requirements of the holder of such a participation, or (C) extend the
         Termination Date.

                           (f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
         contained herein, any Lender (a "Granting Lender") may grant to special
         purpose funding vehicles (each, an "SPC") of such Granting Lender,
         identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender
         to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower the option to provide all
         or any part of any Committed Loan or Money Market Loan that such
         Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make pursuant to this
         Agreement, provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a
         commitment to make any Loan by any SPC, (ii) if an SPC elects not to
         exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of
         such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan
         pursuant to the terms hereof, and (iii) except as expressly set forth
         herein, the rights of any such SPC shall be derivative of the rights of
         the Granting Lender, and each SPC shall be subject to all of the
         restrictions upon the Granting Lender herein contained. Each SPC shall
         be conclusively presumed to have made arrangements with its Granting
         Lender for the exercise of voting and other rights hereunder in a
         manner which is

                                      -59-

<PAGE>

         acceptable to the SPC, and the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and
         Borrower and each other party shall be entitled to rely upon and deal
         solely with the Granting Lender with respect to Loans made by or
         through its SPC. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall
         utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender (and, if such Loan is
         a Money Market Loan, shall be deemed to utilize the Commitments of
         all the Lenders) to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by
         the Granting Lender. Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPC shall
         be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this
         Agreement (all liability for which shall remain with the related
         Granting Lender). In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto
         hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this
         Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after
         the payment in full of all outstanding senior indebtedness of any SPC,
         it will not institute against, or join any other person in instituting
         against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement,
         insolvency or liquidation proceedings or similar proceedings under the
         laws of the United States of America or any State thereof. In addition,
         notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section
         9.05, each SPC may, at any time, without regard to the period required
         by Section 9.05(b)(iv), (i) with notice to, but without the prior
         written consent of, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, and
         without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of
         its interests in any Loans to its Granting Lender (or to any other SPC
         of such Granting Lender) or to any financial institutions providing
         liquidity and/or credit facilities to or for the account of such SPC to
         fund the Loans made by such SPC or to support the securities (if any)
         issued by such SPC to fund such Loans (but nothing contained herein
         shall be construed in derogation of the obligation of the Granting
         Lender to make Loans hereunder), and (ii) disclose on a confidential
         basis any non-public information relating to its Loans to any rating
         agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of a surety, guarantee or
         credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC. This Section 9.05(f) may
         not be amended without the consent of all SPC's then designated to the
         Administrative Agent in accordance with the foregoing provisions of
         this Section.

                  9.06 NEW YORK LAW; SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION. This Agreement
and each Note shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of
the State of New York. The Borrower hereby submits to the nonexclusive
jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the Central District of
California and of any California State court sitting in Los Angeles, California
(in each case, applying such law) for purposes of all legal proceedings arising
out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.
The Borrower irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any
objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any
such proceeding brought in such a court and any claim that any such proceeding
brought in such a court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

                  9.07 COUNTERPARTS; INTEGRATION. This Agreement may be signed
in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same
effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument.
This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and understanding among the
parties hereto and supersedes any and all prior agreements and understandings,
oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof.

                  9.08 SEVERAL OBLIGATIONS. The obligations of the Lenders
hereunder are several. Neither the failure of any Lender to carry out its
obligations hereunder nor the failure of this Agreement to be duly authorized,
executed and delivered by any Lender shall relieve any other Lender

                                      -60-

<PAGE>

of its obligations hereunder (or affect the rights hereunder of such other
Lender). No Lender shall be responsible for the obligations of, or any action
taken or omitted by, any other Lender hereunder.

                  9.09 SHARING OF SET-OFFS. Each Lender agrees that if it
shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise,
receive payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of principal and
interest due with respect to any Note held by it and any Letter of Credit
Liabilities which is greater than the proportion received by any other Lender
in respect of the aggregate amount of principal and interest due with respect
to any Note and any Letter of Credit Liabilities held by such other Lender,
the Lender receiving such proportionately greater payment shall purchase such
participations in the Notes and Letter of Credit Liabilities held by the
other Lenders, and such other adjustments shall be made, as may be required
so that all such payments of principal and interest with respect to the Notes
and Letter of Credit Liabilities held by the Lenders shall be shared by the
Lenders pro rata; PROVIDED that nothing in this Section shall impair the
right of any Lender to exercise any right of set-off or counterclaim it may
have and to apply the amount subject to such exercise to the payment of
indebtedness of the Borrower other than its indebtedness under the Notes. The
Borrower agrees, to the fullest extent it may effectively do so under
applicable law, that any holder of a participation in a Note or Letter of
Credit Liability, whether or not acquired pursuant to the foregoing
arrangements, may exercise rights of set-off or counterclaim and other rights
with respect to such participation as fully as if such holder of a
participation were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such
participation.

                  9.10 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE BORROWER, THE
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE SWING LINE LENDER AND THE LENDERS HEREBY
IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING
ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED
HEREBY.

                  IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this
Agreement to be duly executed by their respective authorized officers as of
the day and year first above written.

                           (b) Not later than 11:00 A.M. (California local time)
         on the date of each Borrowing, each Lender participating therein shall
         (except as provided in subsection (c) of this Section) make available
         its share of such Borrowing in Dollars, in federal or other funds
         immediately available to the Administrative Agent at its address
         referred to in Section 9.01. Unless the Administrative Agent determines
         that any applicable condition specified in Article III has not been
         satisfied, the Administrative Agent will make the funds so received
         from the Lenders available to the Borrower at the Administrative
         Agent's aforesaid address or place.

                           (c) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have
         received notice from a Lender prior to the date of any Borrowing that
         such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such
         Lender's share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume
         that such Lender has made such share available to the Administrative
         Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.06(b)
         and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption,
         make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If
         and to the extent that such Lender shall not have so made such share
         available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender and the Borrower
         severally agree to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on
         demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for
         each day from the date (and including the date) such amount is made
         available to the Borrower to (but excluding) the date such amount is
         repaid to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of the Borrower,
         a rate per annum equal to the higher of the Federal Funds Rate and the
         interest rate applicable thereto pursuant to Section 2.08 and (ii) in
         the case of such Lender, the Federal Funds Rate. If such Lender shall
         repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such
         amount so repaid shall constitute such

                                      -15-

<PAGE>

         Lender's Loan included in such Borrowing for purposes of this
         Agreement. If the Borrower pays interest under this subsection (c) at
         the Federal Funds Rate and the Federal Funds Rate is higher than the
         interest rate applicable thereto pursuant to Section 2.08, the
         applicable Lender shall pay the Borrower the difference between such
         rates.

                  2.07  NOTES.

                           (a) The Loans of each Lender shall be evidenced by a
         single Note payable to the order of such Lender for the account of its
         Applicable Lending Office in an amount equal to the aggregate unpaid
         principal amount of such Lender's Commitment.

                           (b) [Reserved].

                           (c) Upon receipt of each Lender's Note pursuant to
         Section 3.02(b), the Administrative Agent shall forward such Note to
         such Lender. Each Lender shall record the date, amount, type and
         maturity of each Loan made by it and the date and amount of each
         payment of principal made by the Borrower with respect thereto, and
         may, if such Lender so elects in connection with any transfer or
         enforcement of its Note, endorse on the schedule forming a part thereof
         appropriate notations to evidence the foregoing information with
         respect to each such Loan then outstanding; provided that the failure
         of any Lender to make any such recordation or endorsement shall not
         affect the obligations of the Borrower hereunder or under the Notes.
         Each Lender is hereby irrevocably authorized by the Borrower so to
         endorse its Note and to attach to and make a part of its Note a
         continuation of any such schedule as and when required.

                  2.08 INTEREST RATES. (a) Each Base Rate Loan shall bear
interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for each day from (and
including) the date such Loan is made to (but excluding) the date it becomes
due, at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate for such day PLUS any applicable
Base Rate Margin. Any overdue principal of or interest on any Base Rate Loan
shall, at the option of the Required Lenders, bear interest, payable on demand,
for each day until paid at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate PLUS the Base
Rate Margin PLUS 2%. Such interest shall be payable on the last Domestic
Business Day of each calendar quarter in arrears and on the Termination Date.

                  (b) Each Euro-Dollar Loan shall bear interest on the
outstanding principal amount thereof, for each day during the Interest Period
applicable thereto (from and including the first day of such Interest Period to
but excluding the last day of such Interest Period), at a rate per annum equal
to the sum of (a) the Euro-Dollar Margin for such day PLUS (b) the applicable
London Interbank Offered Rate for such Interest Period. Such interest shall be
payable for each Interest Period on the last day thereof and, if such Interest
Period is longer than three months, at intervals of three months after the first
day thereof.

                  (c) Any overdue principal of or interest on any Euro-Dollar
Loan shall, at the option of the Required Lenders, bear interest, payable on
demand, for each day until paid at a rate per annum equal to the sum of 2%
plus the Euro-Dollar Margin for such day plus the quotient obtained (rounded
upwards, if necessary, to the next higher 1/100 of 1%) by dividing (i) the
average (rounded upward, if necessary, to the next higher 1/16 of 1%) of the
respective rates per annum at

                                      -16-

<PAGE>

which one day deposits in Dollars in an amount approximately equal to such
overdue payment due to the Administrative Agent are offered to the
Administrative Agent in the London interbank market for the applicable period
determined as provided above by (ii) 1.00 minus the Euro-Dollar Reserve
Percentage (or, if the circumstances described in clause (a) or (b) of
Section 8.01 shall exist, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of 2% plus the
rate applicable to Base Rate Loans for such day).

                  (d) [Reserved].

                  (e) [Reserved].

                  (f) The Administrative Agent shall determine in accordance
with the provisions of this Agreement each interest rate applicable to the Loans
hereunder. The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the Borrower and
the participating Lenders of each rate of interest so determined, and its
determination thereof shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

                  2.09 ADMINISTRATIVE AGENCY FEES. On the date hereof and on the
Effective Date, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent and the Lead
Arranger certain fees in the amounts set forth in a letter agreement with the
Administrative Agent and the Lead Arranger.

                  2.10 UPFRONT FEES. On the Effective Date, the Borrower shall
pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender non-refundable
upfront fees in the amounts set forth in letter agreements between each Lender
and the Lead Arranger, and in an aggregate amount not to exceed the amount set
forth in a letter agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the
Lead Arranger.

                  2.11 FACILITY FEES. The Borrower shall pay to the
Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders ratably facility fees at the
Facility Fee Rate determined daily in accordance with the Pricing Schedule. Such
facility fee shall accrue from and including the date hereof to but excluding
the Termination Date (or earlier date of termination of the Commitments in their
entirety), on the daily aggregate amount of the Commitments (whether used or
unused). Facility fees shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the first day of
each March, June, September and December and upon the date of termination of the
Commitments in their entirety and, when paid, are non-refundable.

                  2.12  [RESERVED].

                  2.13 OPTIONAL TERMINATION OR REDUCTION OF COMMITMENTS BY
BORROWER. During the Revolving Credit Period, the Borrower may, upon at least
three Domestic Business Days' notice to the Administrative Agent, (i) terminate
the Commitments at any time, if no Loans are outstanding at such time or (ii)
ratably and permanently reduce from time to time by an aggregate amount of
$25,000,000 or any larger amount in multiples of $1,000,000, the aggregate
amount of the Commitments in excess of the sum of the aggregate outstanding
principal balance of the Loans.

                  2.14 OPTIONAL TERMINATION OR REDUCTION OF COMMITMENTS BY THE
LENDERS. Following the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Required Lenders
may in their sole and absolute discretion elect, during the sixty day period
immediately subsequent to the LATER OF (a) such occurrence and

                                      -17-

<PAGE>

(b) the EARLIER of (i) receipt of the Borrower's written notice to the
Administrative Agent of such occurrence and (ii) if no such notice has been
received by the Administrative Agent, the date upon which the Administrative
Agent and the Lenders have actual knowledge thereof, to terminate all of the
Commitments. In any such case the Commitments shall be terminated effective
on the date which is sixty days subsequent to the date of written notice from
the Administrative Agent to the Borrower thereof, and to the extent that
there is then any Debt evidenced by the Notes, the same shall be immediately
due and payable.

                  2.15 SCHEDULED TERMINATION OF COMMITMENTS. The Commitments
shall terminate on the Termination Date and any Loans then outstanding
(together with accrued interest thereon) shall be due and payable on such
date.

                  2.16  OPTIONAL PREPAYMENTS.

                           (a) Subject in the case of any Euro-Dollar Borrowing
         to Section 2.18, the Borrower may, upon at least one Domestic Business
         Day's notice to the Administrative Agent, prepay any Base Rate
         Borrowing or upon at least three Euro-Dollar Business Days' notice to
         the Administrative Agent, with respect to any Euro-Dollar Borrowing,
         prepay any Euro-Dollar Borrowing, in each case in whole at any time, or
         from time to time in part in amounts aggregating $10,000,000 or any
         larger multiple of $1,000,000, by paying the principal amount to be
         prepaid together with accrued interest thereon to the date of
         prepayment. Each such optional prepayment shall be applied to prepay
         ratably the Loans of the several Lenders included in such Borrowing.

                           (b) [Reserved].

                           (c) Upon receipt of a notice of prepayment pursuant
         to this Section, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each
         Lender of the contents thereof and of such Lender's ratable share (if
         any) of such prepayment and such notice shall not thereafter be
         revocable by the Borrower.

                  2.17  GENERAL PROVISIONS AS TO PAYMENTS.

                           (a) The Borrower shall make each payment of principal
         of, and interest on, Loans and of fees hereunder, in Dollars not later
         than 11:00 A.M. (California local time) on the date when due, in
         federal or other immediately available funds, to the Administrative
         Agent at its address referred to in Section 9.01, without offset or
         counterclaim. The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each
         Lender its ratable share of each such payment received by the
         Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, in Dollars and in
         the type of funds received by the Administrative Agent. Whenever any
         payment of principal of, or interest on, the Base Rate Loans or of fees
         shall be due on a day which is not a Domestic Business Day, the date
         for payment thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Domestic
         Business Day. Whenever any payment of principal of, or interest on, the
         Euro-Dollar Loans or shall be due on a day which is not a Euro-Dollar
         Business Day, the date for payment thereof shall be extended to the
         next succeeding Euro-Dollar Business Day unless such Euro-Dollar
         Business Day falls in another calendar month, in which case the date
         for payment thereof shall be the next preceding Euro-Dollar Business
         Day. If the

                                      -18-

<PAGE>

         date for any payment of principal is extended by operation of law or
         otherwise, interest thereon shall be payable for such extended time.

                           (b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have
         received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any
         payment is due to the Lenders hereunder that the Borrower will not make
         such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume that the
         Borrower has made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on
         such date and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such
         assumption, cause to be distributed to each Lender on such due date an
         amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent
         that the Borrower shall not have so made such payment, each Lender
         shall repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount
         distributed to such Lender together with interest thereon, for each day
         from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date
         such Lender repays such amount to the Administrative Agent, at the
         Federal Funds Rate.

                  2.18 FUNDING LOSSES. If the Borrower makes any payment of
principal with respect to any Euro-Dollar Loan (pursuant to Article VI or VIII
or otherwise) on any day other than the last day of the Interest Period
applicable thereto, or if the Borrower fails to borrow any Euro-Dollar Loans
after notice has been given to any Lender in accordance with Section 2.06(a),
the Borrower shall reimburse each Lender within 15 days after demand for any
resulting loss or expense incurred by it, including (without limitation) any
loss incurred in obtaining, liquidating or employing deposits from third
parties, but excluding loss of margin for the period after any such payment or
failure to borrow, provided that such Lender shall have delivered to the
Borrower a certificate as to the amount of such loss or expense, which
certificate shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

                  2.19 COMPUTATION OF INTEREST AND FEES. Interest based on the
Reference Rate and all fees hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year
of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year) and paid for the actual number of days
elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). All other interest
shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and paid for the actual
number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

                  2.20 WITHHOLDING TAX EXEMPTION. At least five Domestic
Business Days prior to the first date on which interest or fees are payable
hereunder for the account of any Lender, each Lender that is not incorporated
under the laws of the United States of America or a state thereof agrees that it
will deliver to each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two duly
completed copies of United States Internal Revenue Service Forms 1001, 4224 or
W-8 ECI, or their successor forms ("Tax Withholding Forms"), in each case as
required to demonstrate and certify that such Lender is entitled to receive
payments under the Loan Documents without deduction or withholding of any United
States federal income taxes.

                  Each Lender which so delivers Tax Withholding Forms further
undertakes to deliver to each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two
additional copies of such forms on or before the date that such form expires or
becomes obsolete or after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the
most recent form so delivered by it, and such amendments thereto or

                                      -19-

<PAGE>

extensions or renewals thereof as may be reasonably requested by the Borrower
or the Administrative Agent, in each case certifying that such Lender is
entitled to receive payments under the Loan Documents deduction or
withholding of any United States federal income taxes, unless an event
(including without limitation any change in treaty, law or regulation) has
occurred prior to the date on which any such delivery would otherwise be
required which renders all such forms inapplicable or which would prevent
such Lender from duly completing and delivering any such form with respect to
it and such Lender advises the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that it
is not capable of receiving payments without any deduction or withholding of
United States federal income tax.

                  2.21  [RESERVED].

                  2.22 REGULATION D COMPENSATION. Each Lender may require the
Borrower to pay, contemporaneously with each payment of interest on the
Euro-Dollar Loans, additional interest on the related Euro-Dollar Loan of
such Lender at a rate per annum determined by such Lender up to but not
exceeding the excess of (i) (A) the applicable London Interbank Offered Rate
divided by (B) one minus the Euro-Dollar Reserve Percentage over (ii) the
applicable London Interbank Offered Rate. Any Lender wishing to require
payment of such additional interest (x) shall so notify the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent, in which case such additional interest on the
Euro-Dollar Loans of such Lender shall be payable to such Lender at the place
indicated in such notice with respect to each Interest Period commencing at
least three Euro-Dollar Business Days after the giving of such notice and (y)
shall notify the Borrower at least five Euro-Dollar Business Days prior to
each date on which interest is payable on the Euro-Dollar Loans of the amount
then due it under this Section.

                  2.23 EXTENSION OF TERMINATION DATE. The Termination Date
may be extended, in the manner set forth in this Section, for a period of 364
days after the date on which the Termination Date would otherwise have
occurred. If the Borrower wishes to extend the Termination Date, it shall
give written notice to that effect to the Administrative Agent not less than
90 days nor more than 150 days following the delivery to the Administrative
Agent of the audited annual financial statements of Borrower in accordance
with Section 5.01(b), whereupon the Administrative Agent shall notify each of
the Lenders of such notice. Each Lender will respond to such request, whether
affirmatively or negatively, within the period ending on the later of 30 days
following the submission of the Borrower's request to the Lenders or 40 days
prior to the then scheduled Termination Date (the "Response Date"). If a
Lender or Lenders respond negatively or fail to timely respond to such
request, but such non- extending Lender(s) have Commitment(s) aggregating
less than 33 1/3% of the aggregate amount of the Commitments, the Borrower
shall, for a period of up to 60 days following the Response Date (but in any
event not later than 15 days prior to the then effective Termination Date),
have the right, with the assistance of the Administrative Agent, to seek a
mutually satisfactory substitute financial institution or financial
institutions (which may be one or more of the Lenders) to assume the
Commitment(s) of such non-extending Lender(s). No Lender which fails to
consent shall be deemed to have consented to a request by the Borrower under
this Section. Not later than the third Domestic Business Day prior to the end
of such period (whether of 60 days or shorter), the Borrower shall, by notice
to the Lenders through the Administrative Agent, either (i) terminate,
effective on the third Domestic Business Day after the giving of such notice,
the Commitment(s) of such non-extending Lender(s), whereupon the Lenders who
have consented to the extension shall continue with their commitments
unaffected to lend subject to the terms of this Agreement to the new
Termination Date, or (ii) designate one or more new financial institutions
reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent to assume the Commitments
of such non-extending Lenders, whereupon the

                                      -20-
<PAGE>

aggregate amount of such Commitment(s) shall be assumed by such substitute
financial institution or financial institutions within such 60-day period or
(iii) withdraw its request for an extension of the Termination Date, in which
the Commitments shall continue unaffected. The failure of the Borrower to
timely take the actions contemplated by clause (i) or (ii) of the preceding
sentence shall be deemed a withdrawal of its request for an extension as
contemplated by clause (ii) whether or not notice to such effect is given. So
long as Lenders having Commitment(s) totaling not less than 66 2/3% of the
aggregate amount of the Commitment(s) shall have responded affirmatively to
such a request, and such request is not withdrawn in accordance with the
preceding sentence, then, subject to receipt by the Administrative Agent of
counterparts of an Extension Agreement in substantially the form of Exhibit K
duly completed and signed by all of the parties hereto (other than
non-consenting Lenders), the Termination Date shall be extended for the
period set forth in this Section 2.23 and in the Extension Agreement.

                  2.24 INCREASED COMMITMENTS; ADDITIONAL LENDERS.

                  (a) Following the Effective Date, the Borrower may from time
to time, propose to increase the aggregate amount of the Commitments in
accordance with this Section. The aggregate principal amount of the increases to
the Commitments made pursuant to this Section (the amount of any such increase,
the "Increased Commitments"), when aggregated with the principal amount of any
increases to the Other New Facilities made pursuant to Section 2.24 thereof,
shall not exceed $500,000,000. Borrower shall provide at least 30 days' notice
to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly provide a copy of such notice
to the Lenders) of any requested Increased Commitments. Each Lender party to
this Agreement at such time shall have the right (but not the obligation), for a
period of 15 days following receipt of such notice, to elect by notice to the
Borrower and the Administrative Agent to increase its Commitment by a principal
amount which bears the same ratio to the Increased Commitments as its then
Commitment bears to the aggregate Commitments then existing. No Lender which
fails to respond shall be deemed to have elected to increase its Commitment in
response to a notice by the Borrower under this Section.

                  (b) If any Lender party to this Agreement elects not to
increase its Commitment pursuant to subsection (a) of this Section, the Borrower
may designate another lender which qualifies as an Eligible Assignee (which may
be, but need not be, one or more of the existing Lenders) which at the time
agrees to (i) in the case of any such designated Lender that is an existing
Lender, increase its Commitment and (ii) in the case of any other such lender
(an "Additional Lender"), become a party to this Agreement. The sum of the
increases in the Commitments of the existing Lenders pursuant to this subsection
(b) plus the Commitments of the Additional Lenders shall not in the aggregate
exceed the unsubscribed amount of the Increased Commitments.

                  (c) An increase in the aggregate amount of the Commitments
pursuant to this Section 2.24 shall become effective upon the receipt by the
Administrative Agent of an agreement in form and substance satisfactory to
the Administrative Agent signed by the Borrower, by each Additional Lender
and by each other Lender whose Commitment is to be increased, setting forth
the new Commitments of such Lenders and setting forth the agreement of each
Additional Lender to become a party to this Agreement and to be bound by all
the terms and provisions hereof, together with such evidence of appropriate
corporate authorization on the part of the Borrower with respect to the
Increased Commitments and such opinions of counsel for the Borrower with
respect to the Increased Commitments as the Administrative Agent may
reasonably request.

                           (c) immediately before and after such Borrowing no
         Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; and

                           (d) the representations and warranties of the
         Borrower contained in this Agreement (except the representations and
         warranties set forth in Section 4.04(b) and Section 4.05, in each case
         as to any matter which has theretofore been disclosed in writing by the
         Borrower to the Lenders) shall be true on and as of the date of such
         Borrowing.

Each Borrowing hereunder shall be deemed to be a representation and warranty by
the Borrower on the date of such Borrowing as to the facts specified in clauses
(b), (c) and (d) of this Section.

                  3.02 EFFECTIVE DATE. As conditions precedent to the Effective

         to it of telegraphic, telex or other written confirmation from such

                  4.01 CORPORATE EXISTENCE AND POWER. The Borrower is a
corporation duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the

business as now conducted.

constitute a default under, any provision of applicable law or regulation or of
the certificate of incorporation or by-laws of the Borrower or of any agreement,
judgment, injunction, order, decree or other instrument binding upon the
Borrower (in the case of any such default under the provisions of any agreement
or instrument binding upon the Borrower, except to the extent that the same
could not reasonably be expected, either individually or in the aggregate, to
have a Material Adverse Effect), or result in the creation or imposition of any
Lien on any asset of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries.

                  4.03 BINDING EFFECT. This Agreement constitutes a valid and
binding agreement of the Borrower and the Notes, when executed and delivered in
accordance with this Agreement, will constitute valid and binding obligations of
the Borrower, in each case enforceable in accordance with their respective
terms.

                  4.04  FINANCIAL INFORMATION.

                           (a) The Pro Forma Combined Financial Statements
         delivered as of the date hereof (i) are derived from (y) the audited
         financial statements of the Borrower set forth in the Borrower's 1998
         Form 10-K, and the unaudited financial statements of the Borrower set
         forth in the Borrower's Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30,
         1999, and (z) the audited financial statements of Promus set forth in
         Promus's 1998 Form 10-K and the unaudited financial statements of
         Promus set forth in Promus's Form 10-Q for the period ended September
         30, 1999, and (ii) fairly present in all material respects, in
         conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, the pro forma
         combined financial position of the Borrower, Promus and their
         respective Subsidiaries as of such date and their consolidated results
         of operations and cash flows for such fiscal year; and

                           (b) Since December 31, 1998, there has been no
Material Adverse Effect.

                  4.05 LITIGATION. Except as disclosed in the Form 10-Q
reports dated as of September 30, 1999 for the Borrower and Promus, there is
no action, suit or proceeding pending against, or to the knowledge of the
Borrower threatened against or affecting, the Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries before any court or arbitrator or any governmental body, agency
or official in which there is a reasonable possibility of an adverse decision
which could reasonably be expected to have a Material

                                      -25-
<PAGE>

Adverse Effect or which in any manner draws into question the validity or
enforceability of any of the Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, with respect to the litigation reported in the Form 10-Q
reports as of September 30, 1999, for the Borrower and Promus, (a) the
disclosure contained therein was accurate as of the date thereof, and (b)
since such date there has been no adverse development which would reasonably
be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

                  4.06 COMPLIANCE WITH ERISA. Each member of the ERISA Group
has fulfilled its obligations under the minimum funding standards of ERISA
and the Internal Revenue Code with respect to each Plan and is in compliance
in all material respects with the presently applicable provisions of ERISA
and the Internal Revenue Code with respect to each Plan. No member of the
ERISA Group has (i) sought a waiver of the minimum funding standard under
Section 412 of the Internal Revenue Code in respect of any Plan, (ii) failed
to make any contribution or payment to any Plan or Multiemployer Plan or in
respect of any Benefit Arrangement, or made any amendment to any Plan or
Benefit Arrangement, which has resulted or could result in the imposition of
a Lien or the posting of a bond or other security under ERISA or the Internal
Revenue Code or (iii) incurred any liability under Title IV of ERISA other
than a liability to the PBGC for premiums under Section 4007 of ERISA.

                  4.07 TAXES. The United States federal income tax returns of
the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and of Promus and its Subsidiaries have
been filed through the fiscal year ended December 31, 1998. The Borrower and
its Significant Subsidiaries have filed all United States federal income tax
returns and all other material tax returns which are required to be filed by
them and have paid all taxes due pursuant to such returns or pursuant to any
assessment received by the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower. The
charges, accruals and reserves on the books of the Borrower and its
Significant Subsidiaries in respect of taxes or other governmental charges
are, in the opinion of the Borrower, adequate.

                  4.08 SIGNIFICANT SUBSIDIARIES. Each of the Significant
Subsidiaries is a corporation duly incorporated, validly existing and in good
standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation, and has all
corporate powers and all material governmental licenses, authorizations,
consents and approvals required to carry on its business as now conducted.

                  4.09 NOT AN INVESTMENT COMPANY. The Borrower is not an
"investment company" within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended.

                  4.10 ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS. The Borrower has reasonably
concluded that Environmental Laws are unlikely to have a material adverse
effect on the business, financial position, results of operations or
prospects of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, considered as a whole.

                  4.11 FULL DISCLOSURE. All information heretofore furnished
by Promus and the Borrower to the Administrative Agent or to any Lender for
purposes of or in connection with this Agreement or any transaction
contemplated hereby is, and all such information hereafter furnished by the
Borrower to the Administrative Agent or any Lender, taken as a whole, will be
true and accurate in all material respects on the date as of which such
information is stated or certified. The Borrower has disclosed to the Lenders
in writing any and all facts which materially and adversely affect or may
affect (to the extent the Borrower can now reasonably foresee), the business,
operations or financial position of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken
as a whole, or the ability of the Borrower to

                                      -26-
<PAGE>

perform its obligations under this Agreement. With respect to any projections
or forecasts provided, such projections or forecasts represent, as of the
date thereof, management's best estimates based on reasonable assumptions and
all available information, but are subject to the uncertainty inherent in all
projections and forecasts.

                  4.12 THE PROMUS ACQUISITION. As of the Effective Date, the
Promus Acquisition has been consummated in material compliance with all
applicable laws and all regulatory requirements (including without limitation
the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act but excluding any regulatory requirements
consisting of consents to the transfer of liquor licenses); all governmental
and shareholder consents and approvals necessary in connection therewith have
been obtained; all third party consents required in connection therewith have
been obtained (in the case of such third party consents, except to the extent
that the failure to obtain the same would not, individually or in the
aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect) and all such consents and
approvals are in force and effect and all applicable waiting periods have
expired without any action being taken by any authority that restrains,
prevents or imposes any material adverse conditions upon the Promus
Acquisition. Giving effect to the Promus Acquisition, as of the Effective
Date, Borrower and its Significant Subsidiaries are, on a consolidated basis,
Solvent.

                  4.13 YEAR 2000. Borrower and its Subsidiaries have reviewed
the effect of the Year 2000 Issue on the computer software, hardware and
firmware systems and equipment containing embedded microchips owned or
operated by or for Borrower and its Subsidiaries. The costs to Borrower and
its Subsidiaries which are anticipated as of the date hereof of any
reprogramming required as a result of the Year 2000 Issue to permit the
proper functioning of such systems and equipment and the proper processing of
data, and the testing of such reprogramming, and of required systems changes
are not reasonably expected to result in a Default or to have a Material
Adverse Effect.

                  5.02  MAINTENANCE OF PROPERTY; INSURANCE.

                           (a) The Borrower will keep, and will cause each
         Significant Subsidiary to keep, all property useful and necessary in
         its business in good working order and condition, ordinary wear and
         tear excepted, except where failure to do so would not have a material
         adverse effect on the business, financial position, results of
         operations or prospects of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries,
         considered as a whole.

                           (b) The Borrower will, and will cause each of its
         Significant Subsidiaries to, maintain (either in the name of the
         Borrower or in such Subsidiary's own name) with financially sound and
         responsible insurance companies, insurance on all their respective
         properties in at least such amounts and against at least such risks
         (and with such risk retention) as are usually insured against in the
         same general area by companies of established repute engaged in the
         same or a similar business and will furnish to the Lenders, upon
         request from the Administrative Agent, information presented in
         reasonable detail as to the insurance so carried. Notwithstanding the
         foregoing, the Borrower may self-insure with respect to such risks with
         respect to which companies of established repute engaged in the same or
         similar business in the same general area usually self-insure.

                  5.03 CONDUCT OF BUSINESS AND MAINTENANCE OF EXISTENCE. The
Borrower will continue, and will cause each Significant Subsidiary to continue,
to engage in business of the same general type as now conducted by the Borrower
and its Significant Subsidiaries, and will preserve, renew and keep in full
force and effect, and will cause each Subsidiary of the Borrower to preserve,
renew and keep in full force and effect their respective corporate existence and
their respective rights, privileges and franchises necessary or desirable in the
normal conduct of business; provided that nothing in this Section 5.03 shall
prohibit (i) the merger of a Subsidiary of the Borrower into the Borrower or the
merger or the consolidation of a Subsidiary of the Borrower with or into another
Person if the corporation surviving such consolidation or merger is a Subsidiary
of the Borrower and if, in each case, after giving effect thereto, no Default
shall have occurred and be continuing or (ii) the termination of the corporate
existence of any Subsidiary of the Borrower if the Borrower in good faith
determines that such termination is in the best interest of the Borrower and is
not materially disadvantageous to the Lenders.

                  5.04 COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS. The Borrower will comply, and cause
each Significant Subsidiary to comply, in all material respects with all
applicable laws, ordinances, rules, regulations, and requirements of
governmental authorities (including, without limitation, Environmental Laws and
ERISA and the rules and regulations thereunder), and shall timely file all
material tax returns and pay all material taxes required to be filed by them and
so paid, except in each case where the necessity of compliance therewith is
contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings.

                  5.05 INSPECTION OF PROPERTY, BOOKS AND RECORDS. The Borrower
will keep, and will cause each Significant Subsidiary to keep, proper books of
record and account in which full, true and correct entries shall be made of all
dealings and transactions in relation to its business and activities;

                                      -30-

<PAGE>

and will permit, and will cause each Significant Subsidiary to permit,
representatives of any Lender at such Lender's expense to visit and inspect any
of their respective properties, to examine and make abstracts from any of their
respective books and records and to discuss their respective affairs, finances
and accounts with their respective officers, employees and independent public
accountants, all at such reasonable times and as often as may reasonably be
desired.

                  5.06 NEGATIVE PLEDGE. None of the Borrower, any Covered
Subsidiary or any Significant Subsidiary will create, assume or suffer to exist
any Lien on any asset now owned or hereafter acquired by it, except:

                           (a) Liens existing as of the Effective Date;

                           (b) any Lien existing on any asset of any Person at
         the time such Person becomes a Subsidiary of the Borrower or at the
         time such Person is merged or consolidated with or into the Borrower or
         a Subsidiary of the Borrower, in each case where the Lien is not
         created in contemplation of such event;

                           (c) any Lien on any asset securing Debt incurred or
         assumed for the purpose of financing all or any part of the cost of
         acquiring or constructing such asset (it being understood that, for
         this purpose, the acquisition of a Person is also an acquisition of the
         assets of such Person); provided that the Lien attaches to such asset
         concurrently with or within 180 days after the acquisition thereof, or
         such longer period, not to exceed 12 months, due to the Borrower's
         inability to retain the requisite governmental approvals with respect
         to such acquisition; provided further that, in the case of real estate,
         (i) the Lien attaches within 12 months after the latest of the
         acquisition thereof, the completion of construction thereon or the
         commencement of full operation thereof and (ii) the Debt so secured
         does not exceed the sum of (x) the purchase price of such real estate
         plus (y) the costs of such construction;

                           (d) any Lien existing on any asset prior to the
         acquisition thereof by the Borrower or a Subsidiary of the Borrower and
         not created in contemplation of such acquisition;

                           (e) any Lien arising out of the refinancing,
         extension, renewal or refunding of any Debt secured by any Lien
         permitted by any of the foregoing clauses of this Section, provided
         that such Debt is not increased (other than to cover any transaction
         costs of such refinancing, extension, renewal or refunding) and is not
         secured by any additional assets;

                           (f) Liens arising in the ordinary course of its
         business which (i) do not secure Debt, (ii) do not secure any single
         obligation in an amount exceeding $50,000,000 and (iii) do not in the
         aggregate materially detract from the value of its assets or materially
         impair the use thereof in the operation of its business;

                           (g) Liens securing Debt of a Subsidiary of the
         Borrower to the Borrower or another Subsidiary of the Borrower; and

                           (h) Liens not otherwise permitted by the foregoing
         clauses of this Section encumbering assets of the Borrower and its
         Subsidiaries having an aggregate fair

                                      -31-

         market value which is not in excess of 10% of Consolidated Net Tangible
         Assets (determined, in each case, by reference to the Pro Forma
         Combined Financial Statements or, if then delivered, as of the most
         recent date for which Borrower has delivered its financial statements
         under Section 5.01(b) or Section 5.01(c), as applicable).

                  5.07 CONSOLIDATIONS, MERGERS AND SALES OF ASSETS. The Borrower
will not (i) consolidate or merge with or into any other Person or (ii) sell,
lease or otherwise transfer all or any substantial part of the assets of the
Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to any other Person; PROVIDED
that, the Borrower may merge with another Person if (A) the Borrower is the
corporation surviving such merger and (B) immediately after giving effect to
such merger, no Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

                  5.08 USE OF PROCEEDS. The proceeds of the Loans made under
this Agreement will be used by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries for general
corporate purposes, including but not limited to (a) on the Effective Date, to
(i) finance a portion of the cash consideration payable in connection with the
Promus Acquisition, and (ii) to refinance all of the outstanding obligations
under the Existing Promus Facility, and (iii) to pay transactional and other
expenses associated herewith, with the Promus Acquisition, the refinancing of
the Existing Promus Facility and the amendment of the Existing Hilton Facility
and Existing Hawaiian Village Facility, and (b), thereafter, for working
capital, capital expenditures, the back stop of commercial paper and the
acquisition of full-service hotel and resort properties. None of such proceeds
will be used, directly or indirectly, for the purpose, whether immediate,
incidental or ultimate, of buying or carrying any "margin stock" within the
meaning of Regulation U in any manner that would violate Regulation X or result
in a violation of Regulation U.

systems and equipment containing embedded microchips owned or operated by or for
Borrower and its Subsidiaries required as a result of the Year 2000 Issue to
permit the proper functioning of such computer systems and other equipment,
except to the extent that the failure to take any such action would not
reasonably be expected to result in a Default or to

         liquidator, custodian or other similar official of it or any
         substantial part of its property, and such involuntary case or other
         proceeding shall remain undismissed and unstayed for a period of 60
         days; or an order for relief shall be entered against the Borrower or

         condition shall exist by reason of which the PBGC would be entitled to
         obtain a decree adjudicating that any Material Plan must be terminated;
         or there shall occur a complete or partial withdrawal from, or a
         default, within the meaning of Section 4219(c)(5) of ERISA, with
         respect to, one or more Multiemployer Plans which could cause one or
         more members of the ERISA Group to incur a current payment obligation
         in excess of $25,000,000; or

                                   ARTICLE VII

                            THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

                  7.01 APPOINTMENT AND AUTHORIZATION. Each Lender irrevocably
appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as agent on
its behalf and to exercise such powers under the Loan Documents as are delegated
to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with all
such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.

                  7.02 ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND AFFILIATES. Bank of America
shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender
and may exercise or refrain from exercising the same as though it were not the
Administrative Agent, and Bank of America and its affiliates may accept deposits
from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of business with, the
Borrower or any Subsidiary or affiliate of the Borrower as if it were not the
Administrative Agent hereunder.

                  7.03 ACTION BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT. The obligations of
the Administrative Agent hereunder are only those expressly set forth herein.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall
not be required to take any action with respect to any Default, except as
expressly provided in Article VI.

                  7.04 CONSULTATION WITH EXPERTS. The Administrative Agent may
consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent
public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for
any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with
the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts.

                  7.05 LIABILITY OF AGENT. Neither the Administrative Agent nor
any of its respective affiliates nor any of the respective directors, officers,
agents or employees of any of the foregoing shall be liable for any action taken
or not taken by it in connection herewith (i) with the consent or at the request
of the Required Lenders or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or
willful misconduct. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its respective
affiliates nor any of the respective directors, officers, agents or employees of
any of the foregoing shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain,
inquire into or verify (a) any statement, warranty or representation made in
connection with this Agreement or any borrowing hereunder; (b) the performance
or observance of any of the covenants or agreements of the Borrower; (c) the
satisfaction of any condition specified in Article III, except in the case of
the Administrative Agent receipt of items required to be delivered to it; or (d)
the validity, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, the Notes or any
other instrument or writing furnished in connection herewith. The Administrative
Agent shall incur no liability by acting in reliance upon any notice, consent,
certificate, statement, or other writing (which may be a bank wire, telex,
facsimile transmission or similar writing) believed by it to be genuine or to be
signed by the proper party or parties.

                  7.06 INDEMNIFICATION. Each Lender shall, ratably in accordance
with its Commitment, indemnify the Administrative Agent, its affiliates and its
directors, officers, agents and employees (to the extent not reimbursed by the
Borrower) against any cost, expense (including counsel fees and disbursements),
claim, demand, action, loss or liability (except such as result from such
indemnitees' gross negligence or willful misconduct) that such indemnitees may
suffer or incur in

                                      -36-
<PAGE>

connection with the Administrative Agent's role under this Agreement or any
related action taken or omitted by such indemnitees hereunder.

                  7.07 CREDIT DECISION. Each Lender acknowledges that it has,
independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Lead
Arranger or any other Lender, 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 Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and
without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arranger or any other
Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate
at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking
any action under this Agreement.

                  7.08 SUCCESSOR AGENT. The Administrative Agent may resign at
any time subject to the appointment of a successor Administrative Agent by
giving notice to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the
Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative
Agent with the consent of the Borrower, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed; provided that no such consent shall be required if the
successor Administrative Agent is a Lender. If no successor Administrative Agent
shall have been so appointed, and shall have accepted such appointment, within
30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent's giving of notice of
resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the
Lenders, and without the Borrower's consent, appoint a successor Administrative
Agent, which shall be a commercial bank organized or licensed under the laws of
the United States of America or of any State thereof and having a combined
capital and surplus of at least $1,000,000,000. Upon the acceptance of its
appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative
Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become
vested with all the rights and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and
the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and
obligations hereunder. After any retiring Administrative Agent's resignation
hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article shall inure to
its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was
Administrative Agent.

                  7.09 ADMINISTRATIVE AGENTS' FEES. The Borrower shall pay to
the Administrative Agent for its own account fees in the amounts and at the
times previously agreed upon between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent
pursuant to a letter agreement.

                             CHANGE IN CIRCUMSTANCES

                  8.01 BASIS FOR DETERMINING INTEREST RATE INADEQUATE OR UNFAIR.
If on or prior to the first day of any Interest Period for any Borrowing
consisting of Euro-Dollar Loans:

                           (a) the Administrative Agent is advised by the
         Required Lenders that deposits in Dollars and in the required amounts
         are not being offered to the Lenders in the relevant market for such
         Interest Period, or

                           (b) the Required Lenders advise the Administrative
         Agent that the London Interbank Offered Rate, as determined by the
         Administrative Agent, will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost
         to such Lenders of funding their Euro-Dollar Loans for such Interest
         Period,

the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the Borrower and
the Lenders, whereupon until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that
the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, the
obligations of the Lenders to make Euro-Dollar Loans shall be suspended. Unless
the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent at least two Domestic Business
Days before the date of any Borrowing consisting of Euro-Dollar Loans for which
a Notice of Borrowing has previously been given that it elects not to borrow on
such date, such Borrowing shall instead be made as a Base Rate Borrowing. The
Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders of any election by the
Borrower pursuant to the preceding sentence.

                  8.02 ILLEGALITY. If, after the date of this Agreement, the
adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in any
applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or
administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable
agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance
by any Lender (or its Euro-Dollar Lending Office) with any request or directive
(whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or
comparable agency shall make it unlawful or impossible for any Lender (or its
Euro-Dollar Lending Office) to make, maintain or fund its Euro-Dollar Loans and
such Lender shall so notify the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent
shall forthwith give notice thereof to the other Lenders and the Borrower,
whereupon until such Lender notifies the Borrower and the Administrative Agent
that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, the
obligation of such Lender to make Euro-Dollar Loans shall be suspended. Before
giving any notice to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section, such
Lender shall designate a different Euro-Dollar Lending Office if such
designation will avoid the need for giving such notice and will not, in the sole
judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. If such
Lender shall determine that it may not lawfully continue to maintain and fund
any of its outstanding Euro-Dollar Loans to maturity and shall so specify in
such notice, the Borrower shall immediately prepay in full the then outstanding
principal amount of each such Euro-Dollar Loan, together with accrued interest
thereon. Concurrently with prepaying each such Euro-Dollar Loan, the Borrower
shall borrow a Base Rate Loan in an equal principal amount from such Lender (on
which interest and principal shall be payable contemporaneously with the related
Euro-Dollar Loans of the other Lenders), and such Lender shall make such a Base
Rate Loan.

                  8.03  INCREASED COST AND REDUCED RETURN.

                           (a) If after the Effective Date, the adoption of any
         applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in any applicable
         law, rule or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or
         administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or
         comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration
         thereof, or compliance by any Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office)
         with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law)
         of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency:

                                    (i) shall subject any Lender (or its
                  Applicable Lending Office) to any tax, duty or other charge
                  with respect to its Euro-Dollar Loans, its Note or its
                  obligation to make Euro-Dollar Loans or shall change the basis
                  of taxation of payments to any Lender (or its Applicable
                  Lending Office) of the principal of or interest on its
                  Euro-Dollar Loans or any other amounts due under this
                  Agreement in respect of its Euro-Dollar Loans or its
                  obligation to make Euro-Dollar Loans (except for changes in
                  the rate of tax on the overall net income of such Lender or
                  its Applicable Lending Office imposed by the jurisdiction in
                  which such Lender's principal executive office or Applicable
                  Lending Office is located); or

                                    (ii) shall impose, modify or deem applicable
                  any reserve (including, without limitation, any such
                  requirement imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal
                  Reserve System, but excluding, with respect to any Euro-
                  Dollar Loan any such requirement included in the Euro-Dollar
                  Reserve Percentage), special deposit, insurance assessment or
                  similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for
                  the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (or its
                  Applicable Lending Office) or shall impose on any Lender (or
                  its Applicable Lending Office) or on the United States market
                  for certificates of deposit or the London interbank market any
                  other condition affecting its Euro-Dollar Loans, its Note or
                  its obligation to make Euro- Dollar Loans;

         and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such
         Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office) of making or maintaining any
         Euro-Dollar Loan, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or
         receivable by such Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office) under this
         Agreement or under its Note with respect thereto, by an amount deemed
         by such Lender to be material, then, subject to clause (d) of this
         Section, within 15 days after demand by such Lender (with a copy to the
         Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such
         additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such
         increased cost or reduction.

                           (b) If, after the Effective Date, any Lender shall
         have determined that any applicable law, rule or regulation regarding
         capital adequacy (irrespective of the actual timing of the adoption or
         implementation thereof and including, without limitation, any law or
         regulation adopted pursuant to the July 1988 report of the Basle
         Committee on Banking Regulations and Supervisory Practices) or any
         change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration
         thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable
         agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or
         compliance

                                      -39-
<PAGE>

         by any Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office) with any request or
         directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force
         of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency, has
         or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on capital of
         such Lender (or its Parent) as a consequence of such Lender's
         obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender (or its
         Parent) could have achieved but for such law, regulation, change or
         compliance (taking into consideration its policies with respect to
         capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material,
         then, subject to clause (d) of this Section, from time to time, within
         15 days after demand by such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative
         Agent), the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount
         or amounts as will compensate such Lender (or its Parent) for such
         reduction.

                           (c) Each Lender will promptly notify the Borrower and
         the Administrative Agent of any event of which it has knowledge,
         occurring after the date hereof, which will entitle such Lender to
         compensation pursuant to this Section and will designate a different
         Applicable Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for,
         or reduce the amount of, such compensation and will not, in the sole
         judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

                           (d) Borrower shall not be required to reimburse any
         Lender for any increased costs, reductions or payments under this
         Section arising prior to 90 days preceding the date of any claim or
         demand by a Lender for compensation under this Section except to the
         extent the applicable law or regulation is imposed retroactively and
         the demand or claim is made within 90 days of the effect (in which case
         such claim or demand shall be submitted within 90 days of the date upon
         which such Lender becomes aware or should reasonably be aware of such
         law or regulation). A certificate of any Lender claiming compensation
         under this Section and setting forth the additional amount or amounts
         to be paid to it hereunder (with detail sufficient to allow the
         verification by Borrower of its calculations) shall be conclusive in
         the absence of manifest error. In determining such amount, such Lender
         may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.

                  8.04 BASE RATE LOANS SUBSTITUTED FOR AFFECTED EURO-DOLLAR
LOANS. If (i) the obligation of any Lender to make Euro-Dollar Loans has been
suspended pursuant to Section 8.02 or (ii) any Lender has demanded compensation
under Section 8.03(a) and the Borrower shall, by at least five Euro-Dollar
Business Days' prior notice to such Lender through the Administrative Agent,
have elected that the provisions of this Section shall apply to such Lender,
then, unless and until such Lender notifies the Borrower that the circumstances
giving rise to such suspension or demand for compensation no longer exist:

                           (a) all Loans which would otherwise be made by such
         Lender as Euro-Dollar Loans shall be made instead as Base Rate Loans
         (on which interest and principal shall be payable contemporaneously
         with the related Euro-Dollar Loans of the other Lenders), and

                           (b) after each of its Euro-Dollar Loans has been
         repaid, all payments of principal which would otherwise be applied to
         repay such Euro-Dollar Loans shall be applied to repay its Base Rate
         Loans instead.

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

                  9.01 NOTICES. All notices, requests and other communications
to any party hereunder shall be in writing (including bank wire, telex, telecopy
or similar writing) and shall be given to such party: (x) in the case of the
Borrower or the Administrative Agent, at its address or telex or telecopier
number set forth on the signature pages hereof, (y) in the case of any Lender,
at its address or telex or telecopier number set forth in its Administrative
Questionnaire or (z) in the case of any party, such other address or telex or

transmitted to the telex number specified in this Section and the appropriate
answerback is received, (ii) if given by mail, 72 hours after such communication
is deposited in the mails with first class postage prepaid, addressed as
aforesaid or (iii) if given by any other means, when delivered or received at
the address specified in this Section; provided that notices to the
Administrative Agent under Article II or Article VIII shall not be effective
until received.

                  9.02 NO WAIVERS. No failure or delay by the Administrative
Agent or any Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or
under any Note shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial
exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise
of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided
shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

                  9.03  EXPENSES; DOCUMENTARY TAXES; INDEMNIFICATION.

                           (a) The Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable
         out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent and the Lead
         Arranger, including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for
         the Administrative Agent (including the allocated fees and expenses of
         any internal counsel), in connection with the preparation of this
         Agreement and all related documents, the negotiation, closing and
         syndication of this Agreement and the Loans (including due diligence
         with respect thereto), the administration of this Agreement and the
         Loans, and in connection with any waiver, amendment or consent
         hereunder or any amendment hereof or any Default or alleged Default
         hereunder and (ii) if an Event of Default occurs, all reasonable
         out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent or any
         Lender, including fees and disbursements of counsel (including the
         allocated fees and expenses of any internal counsel), in connection
         with such Event of Default and collection, bankruptcy, insolvency and
         other enforcement proceedings resulting therefrom. The Borrower shall
         indemnify each Lender against any transfer taxes, documentary taxes,
         mortgage recording taxes, assessments or charges made by any
         governmental authority by reason of the execution and delivery or
         enforcement of any of the Loan Documents.

                           (b) The Borrower agrees to indemnify the
         Administrative Agent, the Lead Arranger and each Lender, their
         respective affiliates and the respective directors, officers, agents
         and employees of the foregoing (each an "Indemnitee") and hold each
         Indemnitee harmless from and against any and all liabilities, losses,
         damages, costs and expenses of any kind, including, without limitation,
         the reasonable fees and disbursements of

                                      -41-
<PAGE>

         counsel (including the allocated fees and expenses of any internal
         counsel), which may be incurred by such Indemnitee in connection with
         any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding (whether or
         not such Indemnitee shall be designated a party thereto) brought or
         threatened relating to or arising out of the Promus Acquisition, the
         Promus Merger Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby, this
         Agreement or any actual or proposed use of proceeds of Loans hereunder;
         provided that no Indemnitee shall have the right to be indemnified
         hereunder for such Indemnitee's own gross negligence or willful
         misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.

                  9.04 AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS. No amendment or waiver of the
terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be made or be
effective unless such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed by the
Borrower and the Required Lenders (and, if the rights or duties of the
Administrative Agent are affected thereby, by the Administrative Agent);
provided that no such amendment or waiver shall, unless signed by all the
Lenders, (i) except as set forth in Section 2.24 increase or decrease the amount
of the Commitment of any Lender (except for a ratable decrease in the
Commitments of all Lenders) or subject any Lender to any additional obligation,
(ii) reduce the principal of or rate of interest on any Loan or any fees
hereunder, (iii) postpone the date fixed for any payment of principal of or
interest on any Loan or interest thereon or any fees hereunder, or the
Termination Date, (iv) change the percentage of the Commitments or of the
aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Notes, or the percentage of Lenders,
which shall be required for the Lenders or any of them to take any action under
this Section or any other provision of this Agreement or (v) render more
restrictive the ability of any Lender to assign or grant participations in its
Commitment under Section 9.05.

                  9.05  SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS.

                           (a) This Agreement and the other Loan Documents to
         which Borrower is a party will be binding upon and inure to the benefit
         of Borrower, the Administrative Agent, each of the Lenders, and their
         respective successors and permitted assigns, EXCEPT that the Borrower
         may not assign its rights hereunder or thereunder or any interest
         herein or therein without the prior written consent of all the Lenders.
         Each Lender represents that it is not acquiring its Note with a view to
         the distribution thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act of
         1933, as amended (subject to any requirement that disposition of such
         Note must be within the control of such Lender). Any Lender may at any
         time pledge its Note or any other instrument evidencing its rights as a
         Lender under this Agreement to a Federal Reserve Bank, but no such
         pledge shall release that Lender from its obligations hereunder or
         grant to such Federal Reserve Bank the rights of a Lender hereunder
         absent foreclosure of such pledge.

                           (b) From time to time following the Effective Date,
         each Lender may assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or any
         portion of its Commitment; PROVIDED that (i) such Eligible Assignee, if
         not then a Lender or an Affiliate of the assigning Lender, shall be
         approved by each of the Administrative Agent and (if no Default or
         Event of Default then exists) the Borrower (neither of which approvals
         shall be unreasonably withheld or delayed), (ii) such assignment shall
         be evidenced by an Assignment and Assumption Agreement substantially in
         the form of Exhibit J, a copy of which shall be furnished to the
         Administrative Agent as hereinbelow provided, (iii) EXCEPT in the case
         of an assignment to an Affiliate of the assigning Lender, to another
         Lender or of the entire remaining Commitment of the assigning

                                      -42-
<PAGE>

         Lender, the assignment shall not assign a portion of the Commitments
         that is equivalent to less than $5,000,000, and (iv) the effective date
         of any such assignment shall be as specified in the Assignment and
         Assumption Agreement, but not earlier than the date which is five
         Domestic Business Days after the date the Administrative Agent has
         received the Assignment and Assumption Agreement. Upon the effective
         date of the Assignment and Assumption Agreement, the Eligible Assignee
         named therein shall be a Lender for all purposes of this Agreement,
         with the Commitment therein set forth and, to the extent of such
         Commitment, the assigning Lender shall be released from its further
         obligations under this Agreement. Borrower agrees that it shall
         execute and deliver (against delivery by the assigning Lender to
         Borrower of its Note) to such assignee Lender, a Note evidencing that
         assignee Lender's Commitment, and to the assigning Lender, a Note
         evidencing the remaining Commitment retained by the assigning Lender.

                           (c) By executing and delivering an Assignment and
         Assumption Agreement, the Eligible Assignee thereunder acknowledges and
         agrees that: (i) other than the representation and warranty that it is
         the legal and beneficial owner of the Commitment being assigned thereby
         free and clear of any adverse claim, the assigning Lender has made no
         representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect
         to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in
         connection with this Agreement or the execution, legality, validity,
         enforceability, genuineness or sufficiency of this Agreement or any
         other Loan Document; (ii) the assigning Lender has made no
         representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect
         to the financial condition of Borrower or the performance by Borrower
         of its obligations under this Agreement; (iii) it has received a copy
         of this Agreement, together with copies of the most recent financial
         statements delivered pursuant to Section 5.01 and such other documents
         and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit
         analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Assumption
         Agreement; (iv) it will, independently and without reliance upon the
         Administrative Agent or any Lender and based on such documents and
         information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make
         its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this
         Agreement; (v) it appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to
         take such action and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as
         are delegated to the Administrative Agent by this Agreement; and (vi)
         it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations
         which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it
         as a Lender.

                           (d) The Administrative Agent shall maintain a copy of
         each Assignment and Assumption Agreement delivered to it and a register
         (the "Register") of the names and address of each of the Lenders and
         the Commitment held by each Lender, giving effect to each Assignment
         and Assumption Agreement. The Register shall be available during normal
         business hours for inspection by Borrower or any Lender upon reasonable
         prior notice to the Administrative Agent. After receipt of a completed
         Assignment and Assumption Agreement executed by any Lender and an
         Eligible Assignee (including without limitation any existing Lender),
         and receipt of an assignment fee of $3,500 from such Lender or Eligible
         Assignee, the Administrative Agent shall, promptly following the
         effective date thereof, provide to Borrower and the affected Lenders
         notice of such effectiveness. Borrower, the Administrative Agent and
         the Lenders shall deem and treat the Persons listed as Lenders in the
         Register as the holders and owners of the Commitments listed therein
         for all purposes hereof, and no

                                      -43-
<PAGE>

         assignment or transfer of any Commitment shall be effective, in each
         case unless and until an Assignment and Assumption Agreement effecting
         the assignment or transfer thereof shall have been accepted by the
         Administrative Agent and recorded in the Register as provided above.
         Prior to such recordation, all amounts owed with respect to the
         applicable Commitment shall be owed to the Lender listed in the
         Register as the owner thereof, and any request, authority or consent of
         any Person who, at the time of making such request or giving such
         authority or consent, is listed in the Register as a Lender shall be
         conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder, assignee or transferee
         of the corresponding Commitment.

                           (e) Each Lender may from time to time grant
         participations to one or more Lenders or other financial institutions
         (INCLUDING another Lender) in its Commitment; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that
         (i) such Lender's obligations under this Agreement shall remain
         unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the
         other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) the
         participating Lenders or other financial institutions shall not be a
         Lender hereunder for any purpose (provided that the participation
         agreement may provide for a Lender to allow the participant the
         derivative benefit of Sections 2.23, 8.03 and 9.03, but such derivative
         benefits shall not increase the overall cost to Borrower under such
         Sections), (iv) Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other
         Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in
         connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this
         Agreement, (v) the participation interest shall be expressed as a
         percentage of the granting Lender's Commitment as it then exists and
         shall not restrict an increase in the Commitments, or in the granting
         Lender's Commitment, so long as the amount of the participation
         interest is not affected thereby and (vi) the consent of the holder of
         such participation interest shall not be required for amendments or
         waivers of provisions of the Loan Documents OTHER THAN those which (A)
         result in a decrease in fees, interest rate spreads or principal
         payable to the holder of such participation, (B) increase the
         Commitment of the granting Lenders and thereby increase the funding
         requirements of the holder of such a participation, or (C) extend the
         Termination Date.

                           (f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
         contained herein, any Lender (a "Granting Lender") may grant to special
         purpose funding vehicles (each, an "SPC") of such Granting Lender,
         identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender
         to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower the option to provide all
         or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be
         obligated to make pursuant to this Agreement, provided that (i) nothing
         herein shall constitute a commitment to make any Loan by any SPC, (ii)
         if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to
         provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be
         obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof, and (iii)
         except as expressly set forth herein, the rights of any such SPC shall
         be derivative of the rights of the Granting Lender, and each SPC shall
         be subject to all of the restrictions upon the Granting Lender herein
         contained. Each SPC shall be conclusively presumed to have made
         arrangements with its Granting Lender for the exercise of voting and
         other rights hereunder in a manner which is acceptable to the SPC, and
         the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and Borrower and each other party
         shall be entitled to rely upon and deal solely with the Granting Lender
         with respect to Loans made by or through its SPC. The making of a Loan
         by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender
         to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by the Granting
         Lender. Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPC shall be liable
         for any indemnity or similar payment obligation

                                      -44-
<PAGE>

         under this Agreement (all liability for which shall remain with the
         related Granting Lender). In furtherance of the foregoing, each party
         hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of
         this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day
         after the payment in full of all outstanding senior indebtedness of
         any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other person in
         instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization,
         arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings or similar
         proceedings under the laws of the United States of America or any
         State thereof. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the
         contrary contained in this Section 9.05, each SPC may, at any
         time, without regard to the period required by Section 9.05(b)(iv), (i)
         with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, the Borrower
         or the Administrative Agent, and without paying any processing fee
         therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans to its
         Granting Lender (or to any other SPC of such Granting Lender) or to any
         financial institutions providing liquidity and/or credit facilities to
         or for the account of such SPC to fund the Loans made by such SPC or to
         support the securities (if any) issued by such SPC to fund such Loans
         (but nothing contained herein shall be construed in derogation of the
         obligation of the Granting Lender to make Loans hereunder), and (ii)
         disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to
         its Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of
         a surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC.
         This Section 9.05(f) may not be amended without the consent of all
         SPC's then designated to the Administrative Agent in accordance with
         the foregoing provisions of this Section.

                  9.06 NEW YORK LAW; SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION. This Agreement
and each Note shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of
the State of New York. The Borrower hereby submits to the nonexclusive
jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the Central District of
California and of any California State court sitting in Los Angeles, California
(in each case, applying such law) for purposes of all legal proceedings arising
out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.
The Borrower irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any
objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any
such proceeding brought in such a court and any claim that any such proceeding
brought in such a court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

                  9.07 COUNTERPARTS; INTEGRATION. This Agreement may be signed
in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same
effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument.
This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and understanding among the
parties hereto and supersedes any and all prior agreements and understandings,
oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof.

                  9.08 SEVERAL OBLIGATIONS. The obligations of the Lenders
hereunder are several. Neither the failure of any Lender to carry out its
obligations hereunder nor the failure of this Agreement to be duly authorized,
executed and delivered by any Lender shall relieve any other Lender of its
obligations hereunder (or affect the rights hereunder of such other Lender). No
Lender shall be responsible for the obligations of, or any action taken or
omitted by, any other Lender hereunder.

                  9.09 SHARING OF SET-OFFS. Each Lender agrees that if it shall,
by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, receive payment
of a proportion of the aggregate amount of principal and interest due with
respect to any Note held by it which is greater than the proportion received by
any other Lender in respect of the aggregate amount of principal and interest
due with

                                      -45-

respect to any Note held by such other Lender, the Lender receiving such
proportionately greater payment shall purchase such participations in the
Notes held by the other Lenders, and such other adjustments shall be made, as
may be required so that all such payments of principal and interest with
respect to the Notes held by the Lenders shall be shared by the Lenders pro
rata; PROVIDED that nothing in this Section shall impair the right of any
Lender to exercise any right of set-off or counterclaim it may have and to
apply the amount subject to such exercise to the payment of indebtedness of
the Borrower other than its indebtedness under the Notes. The Borrower
agrees, to the fullest extent it may effectively do so under applicable law,
that any holder of a participation in a Note, whether or not acquired
pursuant to the foregoing arrangements, may exercise rights of set-off or
counterclaim and other rights with respect to such participation as fully as
if such holder of a participation were a direct creditor of the Borrower in
the amount of such participation.

                  9.10 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE BORROWER, THE
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE LENDERS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL
RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO
THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

                  IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this
Agreement to be duly executed by their respective authorized officers as of
the day and year first above written.
