                  facsimile of the Transaction Confirmation executed by Client
                  (a "Confirmation of Acceptance"). Each Confirmation of
                  Acceptance shall be binding on Client to the same extent as a
                  manually signed Confirmation of Acceptance. It is understood
                  and agreed that a binding agreement relating to the
                  Transaction shall exist between Client and SCTSC only upon the

         b)       Immediately upon delivery of the Commodities in accordance
                  with Section 2(c) below, SCTSC shall pay the Purchase Price to
                  Client in the manner set forth in Section 3 below, and subject
                  to Client's receipt of such Purchase Price, title to the
                  Commodities shall pass immediately to SCTSC;

         c)       Delivery of the Commodities shall, subject to the terms and
                  conditions of this Agreement, be made by Client on the Value
                  Date by the delivery to SCTSC at their offices at One Madison
                  Avenue, New York, New York 10010-3603, of registered
                  negotiable warehouse receipts or other negotiable documents of
                  title in form and substance satisfactory to SCTSC and endorsed
                  to the order of SCTSC issued by warehousemen or other bailees
                  acceptable to SCTSC in its sole discretion or such other
                  delivery method (and documentation) that is acceptable to
                  SCTSC. It is agreed that such negotiable warehouse receipts or
                  other negotiable documents of title, or other documentation
                  acceptable to SCTSC, shall be held by SCTSC at all times until
                  the Repurchase Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary,
                  Client shall be responsible for all warehouse, transportation,
                  storage and other costs and expenses relating to the
                  ownership, storage or transportation of all Commodities;

         d)       (i)      Client shall pay the Repurchase Price to SCTSC on the
                           Repurchase Date in the manner set forth in Section 3
                           and, subject to SCTSC's receipt of such Repurchase
                           Price and all other amounts due and owing to SCTSC
                           hereunder, SCTSC shall deliver to Client on such date
                           the warehouse receipts or other negotiable documents
                           of title or other evidences of delivery of the
                           Commodities SCTSC received from Client pursuant to
                           Section 2(c) above, together with any insurance
                           proceeds as paid to SCTSC under any policy maintained
                           by the Client, and title to the Commodities shall
                           pass to Client immediately upon such payment and
                           delivery. Client's obligation to pay the Repurchase
                           Price and all other amounts due and owing to SCTSC
                           hereunder on the Repurchase Date shall be absolute
                           and unconditional and shall not be subject to any
                           claim, defense, set-off or other reduction,
                           notwithstanding any loss or damage to, defect in or
                           non-existence of any Commodity or any other event or
                           circumstance whether or not similar to the foregoing.

                  (ii)     If the Client shall fail to pay the Repurchase Price
                           or any other amount payable by Client hereunder when
                           due, the Client shall pay to SCTSC interest on the
                           outstanding unpaid amount at a rate per annum equal
                           to the rate of interest established from time to time
                           by Standard Chartered Bank in New York City as its
                           Reference Rate (as defined below) plus five percent
                           (5.0% p.a.).

                                       4
<PAGE>

                           "Reference Rate" is defined as the rate publicly
                           announced from time to time by Standard Chartered
                           Bank, New York Branch as its Reference Rate.

                  (iii)    SCTSC will deliver an invoice to Client prior to the
                           Repurchase Date setting forth the Repurchase Price
                           and all other amounts due and owing to SCTSC
                           hereunder which are payable on the Repurchase Date.

3.       Reduction of Maximum Commitment. The Maximum Commitment shall be
         reduced:

         a)       if Client elects to repurchase all the Commodities prior to
                  the Repurchase Date (in which case the Maximum Commitment
                  shall be reduced to zero); and

         b)       if Client fails to either (i) maintain a hedge contract (the
                  "Hedge Contract") at a price and an amount and otherwise in
                  form and substance satisfactory to SCTSC from a counterparty
                  acceptable to SCTSC or (ii) secure the Repurchase Price with
                  one or more letters of credit issued by a bank acceptable to
                  SCTSC, at a stated amount satisfactory to SCTSC, naming SCTSC
                  as the beneficiary and otherwise in form and substance
                  satisfactory to SCTSC (the "Letters of Credit") (in which case
                  the Maximum Commitment shall be reduced to an amount
                  acceptable to SCTSC).

4.       Mandatory Prepayment. If at any time the Purchase Price exceeds the
         Maximum Commitment (whether due to a reduction in the Maximum
         Commitment in accordance with this Agreement, or otherwise), Client
         shall pay to SCTSC an amount at least equal to such excess.

5.       Hedge Contracts. If the Hedge Contract matures prior to the Repurchase
         Date, the Client shall replace such matured Hedge Contract upon
         maturity with a Hedge Contract at a hedge price equal to or greater
         than the Repurchase Price (or such other price as may be agreed to by
         Client and SCTSC).

6.       Facility Fee. Upon assumption of this Agreement, Client will pay SCTSC
         a non-refundable facility fee in an amount equal to (a) one percent
         (1%) per annum multiplied by (b) the Average Daily Maximum Facility
         Amount (as defined below), payable to SCTSC in arrears on each Monthly
         Payment Date.

         "Average Daily Maximum Facility Amount" for any month for each such
         agreement shall equal the quotient of (x) the sum of the Maximum
         Commitment on each day during the month (unless such amount shall be
         permanently reduced by Client, which it may do pursuant to the terms of
         this Agreement) divided by (y) the total number of days in such month.

                                       5

7.       On each date on which any amounts fall due for payment from either
         SCTSC or Client under this Agreement for the Transaction, the party
         required to make such payment shall do so where such amount is
         denominated in United States Dollars ("Dollars") by payment in Dollars
         and in immediately available funds to such account in the United States
         of the other party as may be specified by it in the Transaction
         Confirmation.

8.       All payments to be made hereunder by Client shall be made free and
         clear of and without deduction for any set-off or counterclaim and
         without deduction for or on account of any present or future taxes
         including but not limited to duties, levies, sales or value added
         taxes, and imposts now or hereafter imposed. If Client is required by
         law to make any deduction or withholding from any sum payable
         hereunder, the sum payable, in respect of which such deduction or
         withholding is required to be made, shall be increased to the extent
         necessary to ensure that, after the making of such deduction or
         withholding (including, without limitation, deduction or withholding on
         account of additional sums payable under this Section), SCTSC receives
         (free from any liability in respect of any such deduction or
         withholding) a net sum equal to the sum which would have been received
         and so retained had no such deduction or withholding been made.

9.       All facsimile communications arising as a consequence of this Agreement
         shall be sent (a) if to SCTSC, at facsimile number (212) 667-0118 and
         (b) if to Client, at facsimile number (713) 993-5841 or, in either
         case, to such other facsimile number as SCTSC advises to Client or as
         the case may be, Client advises SCTSC from time to time in writing.

10.      This Agreement shall terminate on the earliest of: (i) at the sole
         discretion of Client, immediately upon written notice given by Client
         to SCTSC and repurchase of the Commodities pursuant to Section
         1(b)(ii), or (ii) on the Repurchase Date or (iii) as provided in
         Section 11 below (the "Termination Date"); provided, however, that no
         such termination shall affect or nullify the rights and obligations of
         the parties hereto with respect to the Transaction that has been
         concluded or under which amounts may still be owing. Notwithstanding
         any termination, the terms of this Agreement shall continue to apply to
         the completion of any and the Transaction until such time that all
         amounts owing under the Transaction shall have been duly paid or
         otherwise discharged as contemplated by this Agreement.

11.      In the event that:

         a)       any representation, warranty or statement made in writing by
                  Client (or any of its officers, partners or members) in this
                  Agreement or any certificate or document delivered under this
                  Agreement shall have been incorrect or untrue in any respect
                  when made or repeated; or

                                       6
<PAGE>

         b)       Client shall fail to perform any covenant or agreement
                  contained herein or any of Client's obligations under the
                  Transaction effected under this Agreement; or

         c)       Any event or condition shall occur which, in the opinion of
                  SCTSC, constitutes a material adverse change in the financial
                  position of Client as set forth in the Cash Budget, or which
                  causes SCTSC to believe that the ability of Client to perform
                  its obligations under this Agreement, the Transaction
                  Confirmation or any other agreement delivered in connection
                  with the Transaction has been significantly impaired, provided
                  that such event or condition shall be continuing for fifteen
                  days after SCTSC notifies Client thereof and during such
                  fifteen-day period Client fails to cure such event or
                  condition or deliver collateral security for Client's
                  obligations hereunder which shall be in a form and with a
                  value satisfactory to SCTSC in all respects and subject to
                  documentation required by SCTSC to grant to SCTSC a first
                  priority perfected security interest therein; or

         d)       an order shall be entered in the Case authorizing Client to
                  reject this Agreement; or

         e)       an "Event of Default" shall have occurred under and as defined
                  in the SCB DIP Credit Agreement (any of the foregoing shall
                  hereinafter be known as an "Event of Default").

         SCTSC shall have the right (in addition to any other right or remedy
         SCTSC may have at law, in equity under this Agreement, or under the
         Orders, and subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and the
         Orders) to:

                  (w) accelerate the Repurchase Date and all other obligations
         of the Client hereunder to the date such right is exercised,

                  (x) sell without notice to Client or any third party (except
         as required by law) any Commodity held by SCTSC under the Transaction,

                  (y) apply any amounts received therefor against the amounts
         owed by Client to SCTSC under the Transaction and all other obligations
         of the Client hereunder (provided, that SCTSC may retain any balance of
         such amounts until the Termination Date, and at any time prior thereto,
         may apply such balance to cover any amounts due and owing to SCTSC
         under the Receivables Purchase Agreement, and upon the Termination
         Date, SCTSC shall promptly remit to the Collateral Agent any remaining
         balance), and

                  (z) terminate this Agreement, as to all the foregoing, without
         protest, presentment, demand or other formality, all of which are
         expressly waived by Client.

                                       7

         The Client shall remain liable to SCTSC for any amount still owed to
         SCTSC under the Transaction and all other obligations of the Client
         hereunder after the sale of all Commodities held by SCTSC together with
         interest thereon at the rate provided in Section 2(d)(ii).

12.      Client understands and agrees that Client is obligated to repurchase at
         the Repurchase Price from SCTSC on the Repurchase Date any Commodity
         that is the subject of the Transaction effected under this Agreement
         irrespective of any loss, damage, theft or destruction whatsoever which
         may occur with respect to such Commodity during the time the
         Transaction is outstanding or any other event or circumstance. In
         addition, if any claim is asserted against any Commodity by any third
         party, including any governmental authority, Client agrees that Client
         is nonetheless obligated to repurchase such Commodity from SCTSC on the
         relevant Repurchase Date. Any risk of loss whatsoever with respect to
         any Commodity that is the subject of the Transaction that is effected
         under this Agreement is retained by Client.

13.      Client agrees to indemnify and hold SCTSC harmless from and against:

         a)       all expenses and costs reasonably incurred by SCTSC and all
                  claims, liabilities and losses (including, but not limited to
                  legal fees reasonably incurred by SCTSC, sales or value added
                  taxes, duties and levies, excise and other taxes (other than
                  taxes imposed on the net income of SCTSC or franchise taxes by
                  (i) the United States of America or (ii) the State of New York
                  or any taxing authority thereof or therein)),

         b)       all costs and expenses reasonably incurred by SCTSC as a
                  result of any payment of the Repurchase Price on a date other
                  than the scheduled Repurchase Date or failure by SCTSC to
                  deliver a Commodity on the Value Date including, without
                  limitation, all cost or expense suffered by SCTSC in
                  liquidating LIBOR or other deposits or compensating any
                  funding bank therefor, and

         c)       all increases in costs or reductions in amounts receivable by
                  SCTSC as a result of any change in or adoption of any law,
                  rule, regulation or guideline (whether or not having the force
                  of law) after the date hereof,

         incurred or suffered by SCTSC as a result of or arising from the
         Transaction, SCTSC's ownership or control or possession of any
         Commodity, Client's breach of any representation or warranties
         contained herein or Client's failure to comply with any of the terms or
         conditions contained in this Agreement except to the extent arising
         from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of SCTSC. Such
         agreement to indemnify shall extend to and apply to SCTSC's officers,
         directors, shareholders, employees and agents and shall survive
         termination of this Agreement and payment of Client's obligations
         hereunder.

14.      Client shall continue to be responsible for all Commodities in all
         respects including, but not limited to, arranging storage, maintenance,
         shipment and other handling and treatment of all Commodities, and SCTSC
         shall have no responsibility or right to participate in any of the
         foregoing except in the event SCTSC purchases any Commodity after the
         occurrence of an Event of Default or does any of the foregoing in
         connection with its exercise of any rights or remedies under Section 8.

15.      Client shall maintain the confidentiality of this Agreement and shall
         not disclose this Agreement or any terms hereof to any person or entity
         except as required by law and Securities Exchange Commission rules and
         disclosure requirements and to Client's attorneys and advisors who
         agree to such confidentiality and non-disclosure provisions.

16.      Neither of SCTSC nor Client shall assign or otherwise transfer any
         rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of
         the other.

         has taken all necessary action (corporate and otherwise) to enable it
         to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement, and
         (ii) upon execution of this Agreement by or on behalf of SCTSC, this
         Agreement constitutes its legal, valid and binding obligation of such
         party.

18.      So long as the Transaction remains outstanding, Client represents,
         warrants and covenants as follows:

         a)       there is no financing statement, as such term is defined by
                  the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State of New
                  York, now on file in any public office covering any Commodity
                  which is included in any outstanding Transaction, nor is there
                  any lien, security interest or encumbrance on any such
                  Commodity, except for liens in favor of the Collateral Agent
                  as provided in the Orders and the Intercreditor Agreement;

         b)       other than the Cases, there are no proceedings pending or
                  threatened before any court, arbitrator or governmental or
                  administrative authority, instrumentality or agency that, in
                  any one case or in the aggregate, if adversely determined,
                  would materially adversely affect the financial condition or
                  operations of Client or result in cost, liability or expense
                  in excess of $ 5,000,000.00;

                  of the state of Delaware, has all necessary power and
                  authority to own its properties and to carry on its business
                  as now being and hereafter proposed to be conducted, without
                  limitation or restriction, except such limitations or
                  restrictions as are generally applicable to debtors in
                  possession in cases under Chapter 11 of the

                                       9

                  Bankruptcy Code, and has taken all necessary action to
                  authorize, execute, deliver and perform this Agreement and the
                  Transaction Confirmation;

         d)       this Agreement and the Transaction Confirmations shall
                  constitute a valid and binding legal obligation of Client,
                  enforceable in accordance with its terms, and the execution,
                  delivery and performance of this Agreement in accordance with
                  its terms do not and will not violate or conflict, result in a
                  breach of, or constitute a default under, any contract to
                  which Client is a party or by which it or any of its

                  claim, option, warrant, lien or any other right, title or
                  interest of any party other than SCTSC, subject to the Orders
                  and the Intercreditor Agreement;

                  Collateral Agent, in accordance with the Intercreditor
                  Agreement, a valid security interest therein as herein
                  provided, and no consent, license, or approval of any person
                  or entity (including, but not limited to, any governmental
                  authority or agency) (other than the Bankruptcy Court) is
                  required in connection therewith or for SCTSC's ownership,
                  purchase or sale of any Commodity;

         h)       Client has no place of business, offices where books of
                  accounts and records are kept, or places where the Commodities

                  administrative or judicial body or official applicable to the
                  operation of its business, provided that Client may contest
                  any acts, rules, regulations, orders and directions of such
                  bodies or officials in any reasonable manner which will not,
                  in SCTSC's opinion, adversely affect SCTSC's rights in the
                  Commodities;

         m)       all Commodities subject to the Transaction hereunder will have
                  been acquired by Client from non-affiliated third parties in

                  (i)      not to sell, offer to sell, exchange, assign, loan,
                           deliver, mortgage or otherwise dispose of any of the

                  (iii)    to pay and perform all of the obligations under this
                           Agreement according to their terms;

                  (iv)     to keep all Commodities free and clear of any liens,

                           effect on the value of the Commodities or on SCTSC's

                           body or official applicable to the Commodities or any
                           part thereof or to the operation of its business,
                           provided that Client may contest any acts, rules,
                           regulations, orders and directions of such bodies or
                           officials in any reasonable manner

<PAGE>

                           which will not, in SCTSC's opinion, adversely affect
                           SCTSC's rights in the Commodities; and

                  (vii)    to deliver to SCTSC copies of, or certificates of the
                           issuing companies with respect to, and endorsements
                           of, any and all policies of insurance owned by Client
                           covering or in any manner relating to the
                           Commodities, in form and substance satisfactory to
                           SCTSC, naming SCTSC as an additional insured (without
                           recourse for non-payment of premium) and sole loss
                           payee as its interest may appear and indicating that
                           the policy will not be terminated or reduced in
                           coverage or amount without at least ten (10) days'
                           prior written notice from the insurer to SCTSC. As
                           further security for the due payment and performance
                           of all obligations of the Client to SCTSC whether
                           under this Agreement or otherwise, the Client hereby
                           assigns to SCTSC all sums, including returned or
                           unearned premiums, which may become payable under or
                           in respect of any policy of insurance owned by Client
                           covering or in any manner relating to Commodities,
                           and the Client hereby directs each insurance company
                           issuing any such policy to make payment of such sums
                           directly to SCTSC.

19.               As a condition precedent to the effectiveness of this
                  Agreement, Client shall have delivered to SCTSC, in form and
                  substance satisfactory to SCTSC, the documents required under
                  the SCB DIP Credit Agreeement. It shall be an additional
                  condition precedent to the continuing effectiveness of this
                  Agreement that an order shall have entered in the case
                  authorizing Client to assume the Agreement under Section 365
                  of the Bankruptcy Code and authorizing Client to enter into
                  and perform its obligations under the SCB DIP Credit
                  Agreement.

20.               In respect of this Agreement and the Transaction hereunder,
                  each party hereto acknowledges and confirms that:

         a)       Each purchase by SCTSC of a Commodity from Client as
                  contemplated herein is a "forward contract" and each party is
                  a "forward contract merchant" as those terms are defined in
                  the U.S. Bankruptcy Code; and

         b)       All payments made in connection with this Agreement and the
                  Transaction hereunder constitute "settlement payments" as that
                  term is defined in the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.

21.      Although the parties intend that the Transaction hereunder be a
         purchase and sale and not a loan, in the event the Transaction is
         deemed to be a loan or financing, Client shall be deemed to have
         pledged and hereby pledges, assigns and grants to the Collateral Agent,
         acting on behalf of SCTSC in accordance with the Intercreditor
         Agreement, as security for the performance by Client of all of Client's
         obligations to

                                       12
<PAGE>

         SCTSC, whether now existing or hereafter arising, direct or indirect,
         due or to become due, matured or unmatured, or absolute or contingent,
         a first priority security interest in and lien on all of the
         Commodities with respect to the Transaction hereunder, any Hedge
         Contracts and all of the documents of title delivered to SCTSC pursuant
         to this Agreement and all proceeds thereof, and this Agreement shall
         constitute a valid and binding security agreement under applicable law.
         SCTSC shall have all of the rights and remedies of a secured party
         under the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of New York and other
         applicable law with respect to such security interest, except as
         provided in the Orders and the Intercreditor Agreement.

22.      Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or the
         Transaction Confirmation, SCTSC's only obligation to Client is to

                               DEFINITION OF LIBOR

     "LIBOR" means, as applicable to any loan and with respect to the related
Interest Period therefor, the rate per annum (rounded upwards, if necessary, to
the nearest 1/32 of 1%) as determined on the basis of offered rates for deposits
in U.S. dollars, for a period of time comparable to such Interest Period and an
amount comparable to such loan which appears on Telerate Page 3750 (or any
successor page) as of 11:00 a.m. London time on the day that is two Business
Days preceding the first day of such LIBOR Loan; provided, however, if the rate
described above does not appear on the Telerate system on any applicable
interest determination date, LIBOR shall be the rate (rounded upwards as
described above, if necessary) for deposits in dollars for a period
substantially equal to such Interest Period on the Reuters Page "LIBO" (or such
other page as may replace the LIBO Page on that service for the purpose of
displaying such rates), as of 11:00 a.m. (London time), on the date that is two
Business Days prior to the beginning of such Interest Period; and provided
further, however, if more than one rate is specified on Reuters Screen LIBO
Page, the applicable rate shall be the arithmetic mean of all such rates
(rounded upwards, if necessary, to the nearest 1/1000 of 1%). If both the
Telerate and Reuters system are unavailable, then LIBOR for that date will be
determined on the basis of the offered rates for deposits in U.S. dollars for a
period of time comparable to such Interest Period which are offered by four
major banks in the London interbank market at approximately 11:00 a.m. London
time, on the day that is two (2) Business Days preceding the first day of such
LIBOR Loan as selected by SCTSC. The principal London office of each of the four
major London banks will be requested to provide a quotation of its U.S. dollar
deposit offered rate. If at least two such quotations are provided, the rate for
that date will be the arithmetic mean of the quotations. If fewer than two
quotations are provided as requested, the rate for that date will be determined
on the basis of the rates quoted for loans in U.S. dollars to leading European
banks for a period of time comparable to such Interest Period offered by major
banks in New York City at approximately 11:00 a.m. New York City time, on the
day that is two Business Days preceding the first day of such LIBOR Loan. In the
event that SCTSC is unable to obtain any such quotation as provided above, it
will be deemed that LIBOR pursuant to such LIBOR Loan cannot be determined. In
the event that the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System shall impose
a Reserve Percentage with respect to LIBOR deposits of any Lender, then for any
period during which such Reserve Percentage shall apply, LIBOR shall be equal to
the amount determined above divided by an amount equal to 1, minus the Reserve
Percentage. "Reserve Percentage" means the maximum aggregate reserve requirement
(including all basic, supplemental, marginal, special, emergency and other
reserves) which is imposed on member banks of the Federal Reserve System against
"Euro-currency Liabilities" as defined in Regulation D. Without limiting the
effect of the foregoing, the Reserve Percentage shall reflect any other reserves

                                       2
<PAGE>

required to be maintained by such member banks with respect to (i) any category
of liabilities that includes deposits by reference to which LIBOR is to be
determined or (ii) any category of extensions of credit or other assets that
include LIBOR Loans. The interest rate for any loan that bears interest at a
rate based upon LIBOR shall change whenever the Reserve Percentage changes.

                  Seller) for any portion of the Qualified Receivables deemed
                  Uncollectible (as defined herein). A Qualified Receivable will
                  be deemed "Uncollectible" if (i) it has been unpaid for more

                  directly to another account of the Seller rather than to the
                  Account, the Seller undertakes to hold these funds in trust
                  for SCTSC and to immediately remit said payment to the SCTSC

                           encumbered by a lien or security interest of any
                           nature, directly or indirectly, prior to its
                           acceptance by SCTSC and this is a material term of

                           claims, losses and expenses (including, but not

                           as a result of any transaction or as a result of the
                           Seller's breach of any representation or warranty
                           contained herein or the Seller's failure to comply

         C.       Indemnity

                  The Seller acknowledges that SCTSC shall have no liability for
                  any product liability claim from the Seller, the Buyer or any
                  other person relating to or arising out of the Goods,
                  including but not limited to claims relating to the
                  performance (or nonperformance) of the Seller, the quality of
                  the Goods supplied, the contents of any shipments and/or any
                  damage or loss (economic or physical) suffered by the Buyer or
                  any other person arising out of the Goods supplied. The Seller
                  agrees to bear the full risk of defects in or due to the
                  nonconformity of the Goods. The Seller further agrees that it
                  shall hold SCTSC harmless and indemnify SCTSC from any and all
                  claims of the Buyer or any third party relating to any product
                  liability and/or damage claim of any party or person arising
                  from the non-performance of the Seller, from defects in the
                  Goods or injury or loss arising from the Goods. The Seller
                  further acknowledges that SCTSC shall be excused from
                  performing any obligations hereunder which are prevented or
                  delayed by any occurrence not within its effective control
                  including, without limitation, destruction or damage to the
                  Goods, strikes, floods, fire, accidents, Acts of God or any
                  governmental orders or regulations.

         D.       On each date on which any amounts fall due for payment from
                  either SCTSC or the Seller under this Agreement for any
                  transaction, the party required to make such payment shall
                  effect such payment denominated in U.S. Dollars ("Dollars") by
                  payment in Dollars and in immediately available funds (or such
                  funds as may at the time be customary in the City of New York
                  for settlement in the City of New York of banking transactions
                  in Dollars) to such account in the United States of the other
                  party as such party may designate to the other in writing; or,
                  where such amount is denominated in any other currency, by
                  payment in such other currency and in immediately available
                  funds (or in such funds as may at the time be customary in the
                  city of delivery of such funds for the settlement in such city
                  of international banking transactions) to such account of the
                  other party as shall be specified by it in the Transaction
                  Confirmation.

         E.       All payments hereunder by the Buyer or by the Seller to SCTSC
                  shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any
                  set-off or counterclaim and without deduction for or on
                  account of any present or future taxes including but not
                  limited to duties, levies, sales or value added taxes and
                  imposts now or hereafter imposed. If the Buyer is required by
                  law to make any deduction or any withholding is required to be
                  made, the Seller shall ensure that the relevant payment shall
                  be increased to the extent necessary to ensure that, after the
                  making of such deduction or withholding, SCTSC receives (free
                  from any liability in respect of any such deduction or
                  withholding) a net sum equal to the sum which would have been
                  received and so retained had no such deduction or withholding
                  been made.

                  to the Goods or the underlying contract pertaining thereto for
                  any reason whatsoever or for no reason, including any claim

                           that relates to a Qualified Receivable(s) was not
                           adhered to, or

                  c)       the occurrence of any of the events or circumstances
                           listed in Article 8 of the Oil Supply Contract or the
                           termination or material amendment or modification to
                           that Contract, or

                  d)       any one of the covenants, representations or
                           warranties made by the Seller in this Agreement
                           proving to have been incorrect in any material
                           respect, or

                  e)       the Goods under any Qualified Receivable shall have
                           been lost, destroyed or subjected to an event which
                           could create an insurance claim of any nature, or

                  f)       if the Seller fails to issue to the Buyer (or the
                           Buyer claims non-receipt of) a Final Invoice within
                           thirty five (35) days from the date of the Pro-Forma

         Upon the occurrence of any of the foregoing circumstances or in the
         event of non-acceptance of the Goods by the Buyer for any reason (or
         for no reason), the Seller shall, upon demand, immediately return to
         SCTSC any monies received from SCTSC relating to said transaction,
         together with interest calculated at the rate of 3% per annum over the
         Bank's Reference Rate in effect from time to time, from the date of
         SCTSC's payment to the Seller to the date of SCTSC's receipt of full
         payment. SCTSC shall, upon receipt of payment in full from the Seller,

         to the transaction. The Seller shall be fully liable for any claims,
         costs, fines, levies, duties, interests, fees and/or penalties arising
         out of the Buyer's failure to accept the Goods, provided, however, that
         the Seller shall reimburse SCTSC for any reasonable costs and fees

                  appropriate and satisfactory credit support documentation
                  relating to the Buyer being provided to SCTSC. The Seller

                  requirements of the Buyer.

         C.       Further Assurances

                  Each party hereto represents and warrants that (i) it has the
                  capacity and has taken all necessary action (corporate and
                  otherwise) to enable it to enter into and perform its
                  obligations under this Agreement; (ii) upon execution of this
                  Agreement by or on behalf of such party, this Agreement
                  constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of such
                  party; and (iii) execution and delivery by such party of this
                  Agreement and the consummation of each transaction herein
                  contemplated by such party is binding upon such party. In
                  addition, the Seller represents and warrants that none of the
                  Qualified Receivable(s) which are the subject of any
                  transaction hereunder will be, at the time of such transaction
                  or thereafter, subject to any lien or security interest held
                  by any third party (other than SCTSC), including, but not
                  limited to, any security filing under the Uniform Commercial
                  Code or any similar filing and that the Seller is the sole and
                  beneficial owner of all Qualified Receivable(s), except for

                  understandings between the parties as to the subject matter
                  hereof. The parties may from time to time elect by mutual
                  agreement to enter into transactions on terms different from

         E.       Waivers and Amendments

                  Any waiver of any right hereunder shall be in writing and
                  shall be effective when signed by the party granting the
                  waiver. No amendment of any provision of this Agreement shall
                  be effective unless it is in writing and is signed by the
                  Seller and SCTSC. No such amendment shall take effect during
                  the pendency of the Case absent the entry of an order

                  All payments relating to the transactions contemplated by this
                  Agreement shall be made free and clear of and without
                  deduction or withholding for any present or future taxes,

                  authority in any jurisdiction or by any political subdivision
                  or taxing authority thereof or therein. If any such taxes,
                  levies, imposts or duties are required to be withheld from any
                  payments made hereunder, the amounts so payable shall be
                  increased to the extent necessary to yield to SCTSC (after
                  deduction of all such taxes, levies, imposts or duties)
                  interest or any such other amounts as specified herein.

                  respective rights, duties and obligations hereunder solely
                  upon the written consent of the other; provided, however, that
                  SCTSC may freely assign this Agreement and its rights, duties
                  and obligations to any entity that is an affiliate of Standard
                  Chartered Bank upon notice to the Seller, provided that such
                  assignment does not result in additional costs to the Seller.
                  The parties agree that this Agreement shall inure to the
                  benefit of any successor to the parties; provided, however,

                  trustee of the Seller's estate in a case under Chapter 7 of
                  the Bankruptcy Code.

         H.       Agreement not Exclusive

                  The rights to indemnification and recourse to the Seller
                  provided to SCTSC under this Agreement shall be independent
                  of, and neither subject to nor in derogation of, any other
                  rights to which SCTSC may be entitled, including, without
                  limitation, any such rights which may be assertable under the
                  General Corporation Law of New York.

         I.       Severability

                  Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or
                  unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate the
                  remaining provisions hereof, which shall remain in full force
                  and effect, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in
                  any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable
                  such provision in any other jurisdiction.

         J.       Disclaimer of Warranty

                  SCTSC does not make and shall not be deemed to have made any
                  representation or warranty of any kind in favor of the Buyer
                  or any other person, including without limitation: any
                  representation concerning the title of SCTSC to the Goods; any
                  representation that SCTSC is a manufacturer, merchant or
                  dealer in goods; any representation or warranty, express or
                  implied, as to the merchantability, compliance with
                  specifications, design, operation, freedom from patent or
                  trademark infringement, absence of latent defects or fitness
