<Page>

          II.1.     COMMITTED LOANS.

          (a)  AVAILABILITY. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in
this Agreement, each Lender hereby severally and not jointly agrees to make
revolving loans, in Dollars (each individually, a "COMMITTED LOAN" and,
collectively, the "COMMITTED LOANS") to the Borrower from time to time during
the Revolving Credit Period, in an amount not to exceed such Lender's Pro Rata
Share of the Revolving Credit Availability at such time. All Committed Loans
comprising the same Borrowing under this Agreement shall be made by the Lenders
simultaneously and proportionately to their then respective Pro Rata Shares, it
being understood that no Lender shall be responsible for any failure by any
other Lender to perform its obligation to make a Committed Loan hereunder nor
shall the Revolving Credit Commitment of any Lender be increased or decreased as
a result of any such failure. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the
Borrower may repay any outstanding Committed Loan on any day which is a Business
Day and any amounts so repaid may be reborrowed, up to the amount available
under this SECTION 2.1(a) at the time of such Borrowing, until the Business Day
next preceding the Revolving Credit Termination Date. Each requested Borrowing
of Committed Loans funded on any Funding Date shall be in a principal amount of
at least $1,500,000; provided, however, that if the Revolving Credit
Availability at the time of such requested Borrowing is less than $1,500,000,
then the requested Borrowing shall be for the total amount of the Revolving
Credit Availability.

          (b)  NOTICE OF COMMITTED BORROWING. When the Borrower desires to
borrow under this SECTION 2.1, it shall deliver to the Payment and Disbursement
Agent a Notice of Committed Borrowing, signed by it (i) no later than 12:00 noon
(New York time) on the Business Day immediately preceding the proposed Funding
Date, in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, (ii) no later than 10:00
a.m. (New York time) on the Business Day immediately preceding the proposed
Funding Date, in the case of a Borrowing of IBOR Rate Loans and (iii) no later
than 11:00 a.m. (New

                                       40
<Page>

York time) at least three (3) Business Days in advance of the proposed Funding
Date, in the case of a Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans. Such Notice of
Committed Borrowing shall specify (i) the proposed Funding Date (which shall be
a Business Day), (ii) the amount of the proposed Borrowing, (iii) the Revolving
Credit Availability as of the date of such Notice of Borrowing, (iv) whether the
proposed Borrowing will be of Base Rate Loans, Eurodollar Rate Loans or IBOR
Rate Loans, (v) in the case of Eurodollar Rate Loans or IBOR Rate Loans, the
requested Eurodollar Interest Period or IBOR Interest Period, as applicable, and
(vi) instructions for the disbursement of the proceeds of the proposed
Borrowing. In lieu of delivering such a Notice of Committed Borrowing (except
with respect to a Borrowing of Committed Loans on the Initial Funding Date), the
Borrower may give the Payment and Disbursement Agent telephonic notice of any
proposed Borrowing by the time required under this SECTION 2.1(b), if the
Borrower confirms such notice by delivery of the Notice of Borrowing to the
Payment and Disbursement Agent by facsimile transmission promptly, but in no
event later than 3:00 p.m. (New York time) on the same day. Any Notice of
Borrowing (or telephonic notice in lieu thereof) given pursuant to this SECTION
2.1(b) shall be irrevocable.

          (c)  MAKING OF LOANS. (i) Promptly after receipt of a Notice of
Committed Borrowing under SECTION 2.1(b) (or telephonic notice in lieu thereof),
the Payment and Disbursement Agent shall notify each Lender by facsimile
transmission, or other similar form of transmission, of the proposed Borrowing
(which notice to the Lenders, in the case of a Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate
Loans, shall be at least three (3) Business Days in advance of the proposed
Funding Date for such Loans). Each Lender shall deposit an amount equal to its
Pro Rata Share of the Borrowing requested by the Borrower with the Payment and
Disbursement Agent at its office in New York, New York, in immediately available
funds, not later than 12:00 noon (New York time) on the respective Funding Date
therefor. Subject to the fulfillment of the conditions precedent set forth in
SECTION 6.1 or SECTION 6.2, as applicable, the

                                       41
<Page>

Payment and Disbursement Agent shall make the proceeds of such amounts received
by it available to the Borrower at the Payment and Disbursement Agent's office
in New York, New York on such Funding Date (or on the date received if later
than such Funding Date) and shall disburse such proceeds in accordance with the
Borrower's disbursement instructions set forth in the applicable Notice of
Borrowing. The failure of any Lender to deposit the amount described above with
the Payment and Disbursement Agent on the applicable Funding Date shall not
relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder to make its Committed Loan
on such Funding Date. In the event the conditions precedent set forth in SECTION
6.1 or 6.2 are not fulfilled as of the proposed Funding Date for any Borrowing,
the Payment and Disbursement Agent shall promptly return, by wire transfer of
immediately available funds, the amount deposited by each Lender to such Lender.

          (ii)      Unless the Payment and Disbursement Agent shall have been
notified by any Lender on the Business Day immediately preceding the applicable
Funding Date in respect of any Borrowing that such Lender does not intend to
fund its Committed Loan requested to be made on such Funding Date, the Payment
and Disbursement Agent may assume that such Lender has funded its Committed Loan
and is depositing the proceeds thereof with the Payment and Disbursement Agent
on the Funding Date therefor, and the Payment and Disbursement Agent in its sole
discretion may, but shall not be obligated to, disburse a corresponding amount
to the Borrower on the applicable Funding Date. If the Loan proceeds
corresponding to that amount are advanced to the Borrower by the Payment and
Disbursement Agent but are not in fact deposited with the Payment and
Disbursement Agent by such Lender on or prior to the applicable Funding Date,
such Lender agrees to pay, and in addition the Borrower agrees to repay, to the
Payment and Disbursement Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount,
together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is
disbursed to or for the benefit of the Borrower until the date such amount is
paid or repaid to the Payment and Disbursement Agent, at the interest rate

                                       42
<Page>

applicable to such Borrowing. If such Lender shall pay to the Payment and
Disbursement Agent the corresponding amount, the amount so paid shall constitute
such Lender's Committed Loan, and if both such Lender and the Borrower shall pay
and repay such corresponding amount, the Payment and Disbursement Agent shall
promptly pay to the Borrower such corresponding amount. This SECTION 2.1(c)(ii)
does not relieve any Lender of its obligation to make its Committed Loan on any
applicable Funding Date.

          II.2.     MONEY MARKET LOANS.

          (a)  THE MONEY MARKET OPTION. From time to time during the Revolving
Credit Period, and provided that at such time the Borrower maintains an
Investment Grade Credit Rating, the Borrower may, as set forth in this SECTION
2.2, request the Lenders during the Revolving Credit Period to make offers to
make Money Market Loans to the Borrower, provided that the aggregate outstanding
amount of such Money Market Loans shall not exceed, at any time, the lesser of
(i) fifty percent (50%) of the Maximum Revolving Credit Amount and (ii) the
Revolving Credit Availability. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the
Borrower may repay any outstanding Money Market Loan on any day which is a
Business Day and any amounts so repaid may be reborrowed, up to the amount
available under this SECTION 2.2(a) at the time of such Borrowing, until the
Business Day next preceding the Revolving Credit Termination Date. The Lenders
may, but shall have no obligation to, make such offers and the Borrower may, but
shall have no obligation to, accept any such offers in the manner set forth in
this SECTION 2.2.

          (b)  MONEY MARKET QUOTE REQUEST. When the Borrower wishes to request
offers to make Money Market Loans under this Section, it shall transmit to the
Payment and Disbursement Agent by telex or facsimile transmission a Money Market
Quote Request substantially in the form of EXHIBIT H hereto so as to be received
not later than 10:30 A.M. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day
prior to the date of Borrowing proposed therein (or such

                                       43
<Page>

other time or date as the Borrower and the Payment and Disbursement 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 IBOR
Auction (as applicable) for which such change is to be effective) specifying:

          (i)       whether the proposed Borrowing is to be of Eurodollar Money
     Market Loans or IBOR Money Market Loans,

          (ii)      the proposed date of Borrowing, which shall be a Business
     Day,

          (iii)     the aggregate amount of such Borrowing, which shall be
     $25,000,000 or a larger multiple of $1,000,000,

          (iv)      the duration of the Eurodollar Interest Period applicable
thereto, or the IBOR Interest Period applicable thereto (as applicable),

aggregate, the lesser of (A) fifty percent (50%) of the Maximum Revolving Credit
Amount and (B) the Revolving Credit Availability).

Eurodollar Interest Period or IBOR Interest Period in a single Money Market
Quote Request. Borrower may not make more than three (3) Money Market Quote
Requests in any thirty-day Eurodollar Interest Period.

Money Market Quote Request, the Payment and Disbursement Agent shall send to the
Lenders by telex or facsimile transmission an Invitation for Money Market Quotes
substantially in the form of EXHIBIT I

                                       44

than one hour prior to the deadline for the other Lenders. Any Money Market
Quote so made shall be irrevocable except with the written consent of the
Payment and Disbursement Agent given on the instructions of the Borrower. All or
any portion of Money Market Loans to be funded pursuant to a Money Market Quote
may, as provided in SECTION 15.1(f), be funded by a Lender's Designated Bank. A

     principal amount of Money Market Loans for which offers were requested and

     not specify all of the information required by subsection (d)(ii) above;

                                       46

     the applicable Invitation for Money Market Quotes; or

          (C)  arrives after the time set forth in subsection (d)(i).

          (e)  NOTICE TO BORROWER. The Payment and Disbursement Agent shall
promptly notify the Borrower of the terms (x) of any Money Market Quote
submitted by a Lender that is in accordance with subsection (d) and (y) of any
Money Market Quote that amends, modifies or is otherwise inconsistent with a
previous Money Market Quote submitted by such Lender with respect to the same
Money Market Quote Request. Any such subsequent Money Market Quote shall be
disregarded by the Payment and Disbursement Agent unless such subsequent Money
Market Quote is submitted solely to correct a manifest error in such former
Money Market Quote. The Payment and Disbursement Agent's notice to the Borrower
shall specify (A) the aggregate principal amount of Money Market Loans for which
offers have been received for each Interest Period specified in the related
Money Market Quote Request, (B) the principal amounts and Money Market Margin or

Disbursement 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 IBOR Auction (as applicable) for which such change is to be
effective), the Borrower shall telephonically notify the Payment and
Disbursement Agent of its acceptance or non-acceptance of the offers so notified
to it pursuant to subsection (e), and the Borrower shall confirm such tele-

                                       47
<Page>

phonic notification in writing not later than the third Business Day prior to
the proposed date of Borrowing. In the case of acceptance, such notice (a
"NOTICE OF MONEY MARKET BORROWING"), whether telephonic or in writing, shall
specify the aggregate principal amount of offers for each Eurodollar Interest
Period and/or each IBOR 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;

by two or more Lenders with the same Money Market Margins and/or Money Market
Rates, for a greater aggregate principal amount than the amount in respect of
which such offers are accepted for the related Eurodollar Interest Period and/or
IBOR Interest Period, as applicable, the principal amount of Money Market Loans
in respect of which such offers are accepted shall be allocated by the Payment
and Disbursement Agent among such Lenders as nearly as possible (in multiples of
$1,000,000, as the Payment and Disbursement Agent may deem appropriate) in
proportion to the aggregate principal amounts of such offers. Determinations by
the Payment and Disbursement Agent of the amounts of Money Market Loans shall be
conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

                                       48
<Page>

          (h)  NOTIFICATION BY PAYMENT AND DISBURSEMENT AGENT. Upon receipt of
the Borrower's Notice of Money Market Borrowing in accordance with Section
2.2(f) hereof, the Payment and Disbursement Agent shall, on the date such Notice
of Money Market Borrowing is received by the Payment and Disbursement Agent,
notify each Lender of the principal amount of the Money Market Borrowing
accepted by the Borrower and of such Lender's share (if any) of such Money
Market Borrowing and such Notice of Money Market Borrowing shall not thereafter
be revocable by the Borrower. A Lender who is notified that it has been selected
to make a Money Market Loan may designate its Designated Bank (if any) to fund
such Money Market Loan on its behalf, as described in Section 15.1(f). Any
Designated Bank which funds a Money Market Loan shall on and after the time of
such funding become the obligee under such Money Market Loan and be entitled to
receive payment thereof when due. No Lender shall be relieved of its obligation
to fund a Money Market Loan, and no Designated Bank shall assume such
obligation, prior to the time the applicable Money Market Loan is funded.

Revolving Credit Obligations shall be paid in full (or, in the case of unmatured
Letter of Credit Obligations, provision for payment in cash shall be made to the
satisfaction of the Lenders actually issuing Letters of Credit and the Requisite
Lenders), on the Revolving Credit Termination Date. Each Lender's obligation to
make Loans shall terminate on the Business Day next preceding the Revolving

year. Subject to the conditions set forth in clause (b) below, Borrower may
exercise the Extension Option by delivering written notice (the "EXTENSION

Lenders (based

                                       50
<Page>

on their respective Pro Rata Shares), to the Payment and Disbursement Agent on
or before March 1, 2005, stating that Borrower will extend the Revolving Credit
Termination Date for one (1) year. Borrower's delivery of the Extension Notice
shall be irrevocable. In no event shall the Revolving Credit Termination Date

on the date that this Agreement would otherwise have terminated, (ii) the
Borrower shall be in full compliance with all covenants and conditions set forth
in this Agreement as of the date Borrower delivers the Extension Notice to the
Agent and on the date that this Agreement would otherwise have terminated, and
(iii) the Borrower shall have paid the Extension Fee to the Payment and
Disbursement Agent for the account of the Lenders (based on their respective Pro
Rata Shares).

          II.6.     MAXIMUM CREDIT FACILITY. Notwithstanding anything in this
Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall the aggregate principal Revolving
Credit Obligations exceed the Maximum Revolving Credit Amount.

          II.7.     AUTHORIZED AGENTS. On the Closing Date and from time to time
thereafter, the Borrower shall deliver to the Payment and Disbursement Agent an
Officer's Certificate setting forth the names of the employees and agents
authorized to request Loans and Letters of Credit and to request a
conversion/continuation of any Loan and containing a specimen signature of each
such employee or agent. The employees and agents so authorized shall also be
authorized to act for the Borrower in respect of all other matters relating to
the Loan Documents. The Payment and Disbursement Agent, the Arrangers, the
Co-Agents, the Lenders and any Issuing Bank shall be entitled to rely
conclusively on such employee's or agent's authority to

                                       51
<Page>

request such Loan or Letter of Credit or such conversion/continuation until the
Payment and Disbursement Agent and the Arrangers receive written notice to the
contrary. None of the Payment and Disbursement Agent or the Arrangers shall have
any duty to verify the authenticity of the signature appearing on any written
Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation or any other document,
and, with respect to an oral request for such a Loan or Letter of Credit or such
conversion/continuation, the Payment and Disbursement Agent and the Arrangers
shall have no duty to verify the identity of any person representing himself or
herself as one of the employees or agents authorized to make such request or
otherwise to act on behalf of the Borrower. None of the Payment and Disbursement
Agent, the Arrangers or the Lenders shall incur any liability to the Borrower or
any other Person in acting upon any telephonic or facsimile notice referred to
above which the Payment and Disbursement Agent or the Arrangers believes to have
been given by a person duly authorized to act on behalf of the Borrower and the
Borrower hereby indemnifies and holds harmless the Payment and Disbursement
Agent, each Arranger and each other Lender from any loss or expense the Payment
and Disbursement Agent, the Arrangers or the Lenders might incur in acting in
good faith as provided in this SECTION 2.7.

                                   ARTICLE III
                                LETTERS OF CREDIT

          III.1.    LETTERS OF CREDIT. Subject to the terms and conditions set
forth in this Agreement, including, without limitation, SECTION 3.1(c)(ii), each
Lead Arranger hereby severally agrees to issue for the account of the Borrower
one or more Letters of Credit (any Lead Arranger actually issuing a Letter of
Credit, an "ISSUING BANK"), subject to the following provisions:

          (a)  TYPES AND AMOUNTS. An Issuing Bank shall not have any obligation
to issue, amend or extend, and

                                       52
<Page>

shall not issue, amend or extend, any Letter of Credit at any time:

          (i)       if the aggregate Letter of Credit Obligations with respect
     to such Issuing Bank, after giving effect to the issuance, amendment or
     extension of the Letter of Credit requested hereunder, shall exceed any
     limit imposed by law or regulation upon such Issuing Bank;

          (ii)      if, immediately after giving effect to the issuance,
     amendment or extension of such Letter of Credit, (1) the Letter of Credit
     Obligations at such time would exceed $100,000,000 or (2) the Revolving
     Credit Obligations at such time would exceed the Maximum Revolving Credit
     Amount at such time, or (3) one or more of the conditions precedent
     contained in SECTIONS 6.1 or 6.2, as applicable, would not on such date be
     satisfied, unless such conditions are thereafter satisfied and written
     notice of such satisfaction is given to such Issuing Bank by the Payment
     and Disbursement Agent (and such Issuing Bank shall not otherwise be
     required to determine that, or take notice whether, the conditions
     precedent set forth in SECTIONS 6.1 or 6.2, as applicable, have been
     satisfied);

          (iii)     which has an expiration date later than the earlier of (A)
     the date one (1) year after the date of issuance (without regard to any
     automatic renewal provisions thereof) or (B) the Business Day next
     preceding the scheduled Revolving Credit Termination Date; or

          (iv)      which is in a currency other than Dollars.

          (b)  CONDITIONS. In addition to being subject to the satisfaction of
the conditions precedent contained in SECTIONS 6.1 and 6.2, as applicable, the
obligation of an

                                       53
<Page>

Issuing Bank to issue, amend or extend any Letter of Credit is subject to the
satisfaction in full of the following conditions:

          (i)       if the Issuing Bank so requests, the Borrower shall have
     executed and delivered to such Issuing Bank and the Payment and
     Disbursement Agent a Letter of Credit Reimbursement Agreement and such
     other documents and materials as may be required pursuant to the terms
     thereof; and

          (ii)      the terms of the proposed Letter of Credit shall be
     satisfactory to the Issuing Bank in its sole discretion.

          (c)  ISSUANCE OF LETTERS OF CREDIT. (i) The Borrower shall give the
Payment and Disbursement Agent written notice that it requires the issuance of a
Letter of Credit not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the third (3rd)
Business Day preceding the requested date for issuance thereof under this
Agreement. Such notice shall be irrevocable unless and until such request is
denied by the applicable Arranger and shall specify (A) that the requested
Letter of Credit is either a Commercial Letter of Credit or a Standby Letter of
Credit, (B) that such Letter of Credit is solely for the account of the
Borrower, (C) the stated amount of the Letter of Credit requested, (D) the
effective date (which shall be a Business Day) of issuance of such Letter of
Credit, (E) the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall be
a Business Day and no later than the Business Day immediately preceding the
scheduled Revolving Credit Termination Date), (F) the Person for whose benefit
such Letter of Credit is to be issued, (G) other relevant terms of such Letter
of Credit, (H) the Revolving Credit Availability at such time, and (I) the
amount of the then outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations.

          (ii)      The Arrangers shall jointly select one Arranger to act as
Issuing Bank with respect to such Letter

                                       54
<Page>

of Credit, which selection shall be in the sole discretion of the Arrangers. If
such Arranger declines to issue the Letter of Credit, the Arrangers shall
jointly select an alternative Lender to issue such Letter of Credit.

          (iii)     The selected Arranger (if not the Payment and Disbursement
Agent) shall give the Payment and Disbursement Agent written notice, or
telephonic notice confirmed promptly thereafter in writing, of the issuance,
amendment or extension of a Letter of Credit (which notice the Payment and
Disbursement Agent shall promptly transmit by telegram, facsimile transmission,
or similar transmission to each Lender).

          (d)  REIMBURSEMENT OBLIGATIONS; DUTIES OF ISSUING BANKS AND OTHER
LENDERS.

          (i)       Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary in any Letter
of Credit Reimbursement Agreement:

          (A)  the Borrower shall reimburse the Issuing Bank for amounts drawn
     under its Letter of Credit, in Dollars, no later than the date (the
     "REIMBURSEMENT DATE") which is the earlier of (I) the time specified in the
     applicable Letter of Credit Reimbursement Agreement and (II) three (3)
     Business Days after the Borrower receives written notice from the Issuing
     Bank that payment has been made under such Letter of Credit by the Issuing
     Bank; and

          (B)  all Reimbursement Obligations with respect to any Letter of
     Credit shall bear interest at the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans in
     accordance with SECTION 5.1(a) from the date of the relevant drawing under
     such Letter of Credit until the Reimbursement Date and thereafter at the
     rate applicable to Base Rate Loans in accordance with SECTION 5.1(d).

          (ii)      The Issuing Bank shall give the Payment and Disbursement
Agent written notice, or telephonic notice

                                       55
<Page>

confirmed promptly thereafter in writing, of all drawings under a Letter of
Credit and the payment (or the failure to pay when due) by the Borrower on
account of a Reimbursement Obligation (which notice the Payment and Disbursement
Agent shall promptly transmit by telegram, facsimile transmission or similar
transmission to each Lender).

          (iii)     No action taken or omitted in good faith by an Issuing Bank
under or in connection with any Letter of Credit shall put such Issuing Bank
under any resulting liability to any Lender, the Borrower or, so long as it is
not issued in violation of SECTION 3.1(a), relieve any Lender of its obligations
hereunder to such Issuing Bank. Solely as between the Issuing Banks and the
other Lenders, in determining whether to pay under any Letter of Credit, the
Issuing Bank shall have no obligation to the other Lenders other than to confirm
that any documents required to be delivered under a respective Letter of Credit
appear to have been delivered and that they appear on their face to comply with
the requirements of such Letter of Credit.

          (e)  PARTICIPATIONS. (i) Immediately upon issuance by an Issuing Bank
of any Letter of Credit in accordance with the procedures set forth in this
SECTION 3.1, each Lender shall be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally
purchased and received from that Issuing Bank, without recourse or warranty, an
undivided interest and participation in such Letter of Credit to the extent of
such Lender's Pro Rata Share, including, without limitation, all obligations of
the Borrower with respect thereto (other than amounts owing to the Issuing Bank
under SECTION 3.1(g)) and any security therefor and guaranty pertaining thereto.

          (ii)      If any Issuing Bank makes any payment under any Letter of
Credit and the Borrower does not repay such amount to the Issuing Bank on the
Reimbursement Date, the Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Payment and
Disbursement Agent, which shall promptly notify each other Lender, and each
Lender shall promptly and unconditionally pay to the Payment and Disbursement
Agent for the account

                                       56
<Page>

of such Issuing Bank, in immediately available funds, the amount of such
Lender's Pro Rata Share of such payment (net of that portion of such payment, if
any, made by such Issuing Bank in its capacity as an issuer of a Letter of
Credit), and the Payment and Disbursement Agent shall promptly pay to such
Issuing Bank such amounts received by it, and any other amounts received by the
Payment and Disbursement Agent for such Issuing Bank's account, pursuant to this
SECTION 3.1(e). If a Lender does not make its Pro Rata Share of the amount of
such payment available to the Payment and Disbursement Agent, such Lender agrees
to pay to the Payment and Disbursement Agent for the account of the Issuing
Bank, forthwith on demand, such amount together with interest thereon at the
interest rate then applicable to Base Rate Loans in accordance with SECTION
5.1(a). The failure of any Lender to make available to the Payment and
Disbursement Agent for the account of an Issuing Bank its Pro Rata Share of any
such payment shall neither relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder
to make available to the Payment and Disbursement Agent for the account of such
Issuing Bank such other Lender's Pro Rata Share of any payment on the date such
payment is to be made nor increase the obligation of any other Lender to make
such payment to the Payment and Disbursement Agent.

          (iii)     Whenever an Issuing Bank receives a payment on account of a
Reimbursement Obligation, including any interest thereon, as to which the
Payment and Disbursement Agent has previously received payments from any other
Lender for the account of such Issuing Bank pursuant to this SECTION 3.1(e),
such Issuing Bank shall promptly pay to the Payment and Disbursement Agent and
the Payment and Disbursement Agent shall promptly pay to each other Lender an
amount equal to such other Lender's Pro Rata Share thereof. Each such payment
shall be made by such reimbursed Issuing Bank or the Payment and Disbursement
Agent, as the case may be, on the Business Day on which such Person receives the
funds paid to such Person pursuant to the preceding sentence, if received prior
to

                                       57
<Page>

11:00 a.m. (New York time) on such Business Day, and otherwise on the next
succeeding Business Day.

          (iv)      Upon the written request of any Lender, the Issuing Banks
shall furnish such requesting Lender copies of any Letter of Credit, Letter of
Credit Reimbursement Agreement, and related amendment to which such Issuing Bank
is party and such other documentation as reasonably may be requested by the
requesting Lender.

          (v)       The obligations of a Lender to make payments to the Payment
and Disbursement Agent for the account of any Issuing Bank with respect to a
Letter of Credit shall be irrevocable, shall not be subject to any qualification
or exception whatsoever except willful misconduct or gross negligence of such
Issuing Bank, and shall be honored in accordance with this ARTICLE III
(irrespective of the satisfaction of the conditions described in SECTIONS 6.1
and 6.2, as applicable) under all circumstances, including, without limitation,
any of the following circumstances:

          (A)  any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any
     of the other Loan Documents;

          (B)  the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right which
     the Borrower may have at any time against a beneficiary named in a Letter
     of Credit or any transferee of a beneficiary named in a Letter of Credit
     (or any Person for whom any such transferee may be acting), any Lender, or
     any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any Letter of
     Credit, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transactions
     (including any underlying transactions between the account party and
     beneficiary named in any Letter of Credit);

          (C)  any draft, certificate or any other document presented under the
     Letter of Credit having been determined to be forged, fraudulent,

                                       58
<Page>

     invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being
     untrue or inaccurate in any respect;

          (D)  the surrender or impairment of any security for the performance
     or observance of any of the terms of any of the Loan Documents;

          (E)  any failure by that Issuing Bank to make any reports required
     pursuant to SECTION 3.1(h) or the inaccuracy of any such report; or

          (F)  the occurrence of any Event of Default or Potential Event of
     Default.

          (f)  PAYMENT OF REIMBURSEMENT OBLIGATIONS. (i) The Borrower
unconditionally agrees to pay to each Issuing Bank, in Dollars, the amount of
all Reimbursement Obligations, interest and other amounts payable to such
Issuing Bank under or in connection with the Letters of Credit when such amounts
are due and payable, irrespective of any claim, setoff, defense or other right
which the Borrower may have at any time against any Issuing Bank or any other
Person.

          (ii)      In the event any payment by the Borrower received by an
Issuing Bank with respect to a Letter of Credit and distributed by the Payment
and Disbursement Agent to the Lenders on account of their participations is
thereafter set aside, avoided or recovered from such Issuing Bank in connection
with any receivership, liquidation or bankruptcy proceeding, each Lender which
received such distribution shall, upon demand by such Issuing Bank, contribute
such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the amount set aside, avoided or recovered
together with interest at the rate required to be paid by such Issuing Bank upon
the amount required to be repaid by it.

          (g)  LETTER OF CREDIT FEE CHARGES. In connection with each Letter of
Credit, Borrower hereby covenants to pay to the Payment and Disbursement Agent
the following

                                       59
<Page>

fees each payable quarterly in arrears (on the first Business Day of each
calendar quarter following the issuance of each Letter of Credit): (1) a fee for
the account of the Lenders, computed daily on the amount of the Letter of Credit
issued and outstanding at a rate per annum equal to the "Banks' L/C Fee Rate"
(as hereinafter defined) and (2) a fee, for the Issuing Bank's own account,
computed daily on the amount of the Letter of Credit issued and outstanding at a
rate per annum equal to 0.125%. For purposes of this Agreement, the "Banks' L/C
Fee Rate" shall mean, at any time, a rate per annum equal to the Applicable
Margin for Eurodollar Rate Loans LESS 0.125% per annum. It is understood and
agreed that the last installment of the fees provided for in this paragraph (g)
with respect to any particular Letter of Credit shall be due and payable on the
first day of the fiscal quarter following the return, undrawn, or cancellation
of such Letter of Credit. In addition, the Borrower shall pay to each Issuing
Bank, solely for its own account, the standard charges assessed by such Issuing
Bank in connection with the issuance, administration, amendment and payment or
cancellation of Letters of Credit and such compensation in respect of such
Letters of Credit for the Borrower's account as may be agreed upon by the
Borrower and such Issuing Bank from time to time.

          (h)  LETTER OF CREDIT REPORTING REQUIREMENTS. Each Issuing Bank shall,
no later than the tenth (10th) Business Day following the last day of each
calendar month, provide to the Payment and Disbursement Agent, the Borrower, and
each other Lender separate schedules for Commercial Letters of Credit and
Standby Letters of Credit issued as Letters of Credit, in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Payment and Disbursement Agent, setting forth the
aggregate Letter of Credit Obligations outstanding to it at the end of each
month and, to the extent not otherwise provided in accordance with the
provisions of SECTION 3.1(c)(ii), any information requested by the Payment and
Disbursement Agent or the Borrower relating to the date of issue, account party,
amount, expiration

                                       60
<Page>

date and reference number of each Letter of Credit issued by it.

          (i)       INDEMNIFICATION; EXONERATION. (i) In addition to all other
amounts payable to an Issuing Bank, the Borrower hereby agrees to defend,
indemnify, and save the Payment and Disbursement Agent, each Issuing Bank, and
each other Lender harmless from and against any and all claims, demands,
liabilities, penalties, damages, losses (other than loss of profits), costs,
charges and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees but excluding taxes)
which the Payment and Disbursement Agent, the Issuing Banks, or such other
Lender may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of (A)
the issuance of any Letter of Credit other than as a result of the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of the Issuing Bank, as determined by a court
of competent jurisdiction, or (B) the failure of the Issuing Bank to honor a
drawing under such Letter of Credit as a result of any act or omission, whether
rightful or wrongful, of any present or future DE JURE or DE FACTO government or
Governmental Authority.

          (ii)      As between the Borrower on the one hand and the Lenders on
the other hand, the Borrower assumes all risks of the acts and omissions of, or
misuse of Letters of Credit by, the respective beneficiaries of the Letters of
Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, subject to the
provisions of the Letter of Credit Reimbursement Agreements, the Payment and
Disbursement Agent, the Issuing Banks and the other Lenders shall not be
responsible for: (A) the form, validity, legality, sufficiency, accuracy,
genuineness or legal effect of any document submitted by any party in connection
with the application for and issuance of the Letters of Credit, even if it
should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient,
inaccurate, fraudulent or forged; (B) the validity, legality or sufficiency of
any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a
Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in
whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any

                                       61
<Page>

reason; (C) failure of the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit to duly comply with
conditions required in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit; (D) errors,
omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages,
by mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher;
(E) errors in interpretation of technical terms; (F) any loss or delay in the
transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing
under any Letter of Credit or of the proceeds thereof; (G) the misapplication by
the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit of the proceeds of any drawing under such
Letter of Credit; and (H) any consequences arising from causes beyond the
control of the Payment and Disbursement Agent, the Issuing Banks or the other
Lenders.

          III.2.    OBLIGATIONS SEVERAL. The obligations of the Payment and
Disbursement Agent, each Issuing Bank, and each other Lender under this ARTICLE
III are several and not joint, and no Issuing Bank or other Lender shall be
responsible for the obligation to issue Letters of Credit or participation
obligation hereunder, respectively, of any other Issuing Bank or other Lender.

                                   ARTICLE IV
                            PAYMENTS AND PREPAYMENTS

          IV.1.     PREPAYMENTS; REDUCTIONS IN REVOLVING CREDIT COMMITMENTS.

          (a)  VOLUNTARY PREPAYMENTS. The Borrower may, at any time and from
time to time, prepay the Loans in part or in their entirety, subject to the
following limitations. The Borrower shall give at least five (5) Business Days'
prior written notice to the Payment and Disbursement Agent (which the Payment
and Disbursement Agent shall promptly transmit to each Lender) of any prepayment
in the entirety to be made prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, which
notice of prepayment shall specify the date (which shall be a Business Day) of
prepayment. When notice of

                                       62
<Page>

prepayment is delivered as provided herein, the outstanding principal amount of
the Loans on the prepayment date specified in the notice shall become due and
payable on such prepayment date. Each voluntary partial prepayment of the Loans
shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 and in integral multiples of
$1,000,000 in excess of that amount. Eurodollar Rate Loans, IBOR Rate Loans, and
Money Market Loans may be prepaid in part or in their entirety only upon payment
of the amounts described in SECTION 5.2(f).

          (b)  VOLUNTARY REDUCTIONS IN REVOLVING CREDIT COMMITMENTS. The
Borrower may, upon at least five (5) Business Days' prior written notice to the
Payment and Disbursement Agent (which the Payment and Disbursement Agent shall
promptly transmit to each Lender), at any time and from time to time, terminate
in whole or permanently reduce in part the Revolving Credit Commitments,
PROVIDED THAT the Borrower shall have made whatever payment may be required to
reduce the Revolving Credit Obligations to an amount less than or equal to the
Revolving Credit Commitments as reduced or terminated, which amount shall become
due and payable on the date specified in such notice. Any partial reduction of
the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of
$1,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount, and
shall reduce the Revolving Credit Commitment of each Lender proportionately in
accordance with its Pro Rata Share. Any notice of termination or reduction given
to the Payment and Disbursement Agent under this SECTION 4.1(b) shall specify
the date (which shall be a Business Day) of such termination or reduction and,
with respect to a partial reduction, the aggregate principal amount thereof.

          (c)  NO PENALTY. The prepayments and payments in respect of reductions
and terminations described in clauses (a) and (b) of this SECTION 4.1 may be
made without premium or penalty (except as provided in SECTION 5.2(f)).

          (d)  MANDATORY PREPAYMENT. If at any time from and after the Closing
Date: (i) the Borrower merges or

                                       63
<Page>

consolidates with another Person and the Borrower is not the surviving entity,
or (ii) the Borrower or any Consolidated Business sells, transfers, assigns or
conveys assets, the book value of which (computed in accordance with GAAP but
without deduction for depreciation), in the aggregate of all such sales,
transfers, assignments, foreclosures, or conveyances exceeds 30% of the
Capitalization Value, or (iii) the portion of Capitalization Value attributable
to the aggregate Limited Minority Holdings of the Borrower and its Consolidated
Businesses exceed 20% of Capitalization Value, or (iv) the Borrower or the
Management Company ceases to provide directly or through their Affiliates
property management and leasing services to at least 33% of the total number of
shopping centers in which the Borrower has an ownership interest (the date any
such event shall occur being the "PREPAYMENT DATE"), the Revolving Credit
Commitment shall be terminated and the Borrower shall be required to prepay the
Loans in their entirety as if the Prepayment Date were the Revolving Credit
Termination Date. The Borrower shall immediately make such prepayment together
with interest accrued to the date of the prepayment on the principal amount
prepaid and shall return or cause to be returned all Letters of Credit to the
applicable Lender. In connection with the prepayment of any Loan prior to the
maturity thereof, the Borrower shall also pay any applicable expenses pursuant
to SECTION 5.2(f). Each such prepayment shall be applied to prepay ratably the
Loans of the Lenders. Amounts prepaid pursuant to this SECTION 4.1(d) may not be
reborrowed. As used in this SECTION 4.1(d) only, the phrase "sells, transfers,
assigns or conveys" shall not include (i) sales or conveyances among Borrower
and any Consolidated Businesses, or (ii) mortgages secured by Real Property.

          IV.2.     PAYMENTS.

          (a)  MANNER AND TIME OF PAYMENT. All payments of principal of and
interest on the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations and other Obligations
(including, without limitation, fees and expenses) which are payable to the
Payment

                                       64
<Page>

and Disbursement Agent, the Arrangers or any other Lender shall be made without
condition or reservation of right, in immediately available funds, delivered to
the Payment and Disbursement Agent (or, in the case of Reimbursement
Obligations, to the pertinent Arranger) not later than 12:00 noon (New York
time) on the date and at the place due, to such account of the Payment and
Disbursement Agent (or such Arranger) as it may designate, for the account of
the Payment and Disbursement Agent, an Arranger, or such other Lender, as the
case may be; and funds received by the Payment and Disbursement Agent (or such
Arranger), including, without limitation, funds in respect of any Loans to be
made on that date, not later than 12:00 noon (New York time) on any given
Business Day shall be credited against payment to be made that day and funds
received by the Payment and Disbursement Agent (or such Arranger) after that
time shall be deemed to have been paid on the next succeeding Business Day.
Payments actually received by the Payment and Disbursement Agent for the account
of the Lenders, or any of them, shall be paid to them by the Payment and
Disbursement Agent promptly after receipt thereof, in immediately available

SECTION 4.2(b)(v), all payments of principal and interest in respect of
outstanding Loans, all payments in respect of Reimbursement Obligations, all
payments of fees and all other payments in respect of any other Obligations,

proportion to their respective Pro Rata Shares or otherwise as provided herein.
Subject to the provisions of SECTION 4.2(b)(ii), all such payments and any other

of the Borrower shall be applied in the following order:

          (A)  to pay principal of and interest on any portion of the Loans
     which the Payment and Disbursement Agent may have advanced on behalf of any
     Lender other than itself for which the Payment and Disbursement

                                       65
<Page>

     Agent has not then been reimbursed by such Lender or the Borrower,

          (B)  to pay all other Obligations then due and payable and

          (C)  as the Borrower so designates.

Unless otherwise designated by the Borrower, all principal payments in respect
of Committed Loans shall be applied FIRST, to repay outstanding Base Rate Loans,
and THEN to repay outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loans and IBOR Rate Loans, with
those Eurodollar Rate Loans and IBOR Rate Loans which have earlier expiring
Interest Periods being repaid prior to those which have later expiring Interest
Periods.

          (ii)      After the occurrence of an Event of Default and while the
same is continuing, the Payment and Disbursement Agent shall apply all payments
in respect of any Obligations in the following order:

          (A)  first, to pay principal of and interest on any portion of the
     Loans which the Payment and Disbursement Agent may have advanced on behalf
     of any Lender other than itself for which the Payment and Disbursement
     Agent has not then been reimbursed by such Lender or the Borrower;

          (B)  second, to pay Obligations in respect of any fees, expense
     reimbursements or indemnities then due to the Payment and Disbursement
     Agent;

          (C)  third, to pay principal of and interest on Letter of Credit

     with the Payment and Disbursement Agent to provide cash collateral in
     respect of such Obligations);

          (D)  fourth, to pay Obligations in respect of any fees, expense
     reimbursements or

                                       66

     indemnities then due to the Lenders and the Co-Agents;

          (E)  fifth, to pay interest due in respect of Loans;

          (F)  sixth, to the ratable payment or prepayment of principal
     outstanding on Loans; and

          (G)  seventh, to the ratable payment of all other Obligations.

The order of priority set forth in this SECTION 4.2(b)(ii) and the related
provisions of this Agreement are set forth solely to determine the rights and
priorities of the Payment and Disbursement Agent, the Arrangers, the other
Lenders and other Holders as among themselves. The order of priority set forth
in clauses (C) through (G) of this SECTION 4.2(b)(ii) may at any time and from
time to time be changed by the Requisite Lenders without necessity of notice to
or consent of or approval by the Borrower, any Holder which is not a Lender, or
any other Person. The order of priority set forth in clauses (A) and (B) of this
SECTION 4.2(b)(ii) may be changed only with the prior written consent of the
Payment and Disbursement Agent.

          (iii)     The Payment and Disbursement Agent, in its sole discretion
subject only to the terms of this SECTION 4.2(b)(iii), may pay from the proceeds
of Loans made to the Borrower hereunder, whether made following a request by the
Borrower pursuant to SECTIONS 2.1 OR 2.2 or a deemed request as provided in this
SECTION 4.2(b)(iii), all amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder, including,
without limitation, amounts payable with respect to payments of principal,
interest, Reimbursement Obligations and fees and all reimbursements for expenses
pursuant to SECTION 15.2. The Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes the Lenders
to make Loans, which Loans shall be Base Rate Loans, in each case, upon notice
from the Payment and Disbursement Agent as described in the following sentence
for the purpose of paying principal, interest,

                                       67
<Page>

Reimbursement Obligations and fees due from the Borrower, reimbursing expenses
pursuant to SECTION 15.2 and paying any and all other amounts due and payable by
the Borrower hereunder or under the Notes, and agrees that all such Loans so
made shall be deemed to have been requested by it pursuant to SECTION 2.1 as of
the date of the aforementioned notice. The Payment and Disbursement Agent shall
request Loans on behalf of the Borrower as described in the preceding sentence
by notifying the Lenders by facsimile transmission or other similar form of
transmission (which notice the Payment and Disbursement Agent shall thereafter
promptly transmit to the Borrower), of the amount and Funding Date of the
proposed Borrowing and that such Borrowing is being requested on the Borrower's
behalf pursuant to this SECTION 4.2(b)(iii). On the proposed Funding Date, the
Lenders shall make the requested Loans in accordance with the procedures and
subject to the conditions specified in SECTION 2.1.

          (iv)      Subject to SECTION 4.2(b)(v), the Payment and Disbursement
Agent shall promptly distribute to each Arranger and each other Lender at its
primary address set forth on the appropriate signature page hereof or the
signature page to the Assignment and Acceptance by which it became a Lender, or
at such other address as a Lender or other Holder may request in writing, such
funds as such Person may be entitled to receive, subject to the provisions of
ARTICLE XII; PROVIDED that the Payment and Disbursement Agent shall under no
circumstances be bound to inquire into or determine the validity, scope or
priority of any interest or entitlement of any Holder and may suspend all
payments or seek appropriate relief (including, without limitation, instructions
from the Requisite Lenders or an action in the nature of interpleader) in the
event of any doubt or dispute as to any apportionment or distribution
contemplated hereby.

          (v)       In the event that any Lender fails to fund its Pro Rata
Share of any Loan requested by the Borrower which such Lender is obligated to
fund under the terms of this Agreement (the funded portion of such Loan being
here-

                                       68
<Page>

inafter referred to as a "NON PRO RATA LOAN"), until the earlier of such
Lender's cure of such failure and the termination of the Revolving Credit
Commitments, the proceeds of all amounts thereafter repaid to the Payment and
Disbursement Agent by the Borrower and otherwise required to be applied to such
Lender's share of all other Obligations pursuant to the terms of this Agreement
shall be advanced to the Borrower by the Payment and Disbursement Agent on
behalf of such Lender to cure, in full or in part, such failure by such Lender,
but shall nevertheless be deemed to have been paid to such Lender in
satisfaction of such other Obligations. Notwithstanding anything in this
Agreement to the contrary:

          (A)  the foregoing provisions of this SECTION 4.2(b)(v) shall apply
     only with respect to the proceeds of payments of Obligations and shall not
     affect the conversion or continuation of Loans pursuant to SECTION 5.1(c);

          (B)  a Lender shall be deemed to have cured its failure to fund its
     Pro Rata Share of any Loan at such time as an amount equal to such Lender's
     original Pro Rata Share of the requested principal portion of such Loan is
     fully funded to the Borrower, whether made by such Lender itself or by
     operation of the terms of this SECTION 4.2(b)(v), and whether or not the
     Non Pro Rata Loan with respect thereto has been repaid, converted or
     continued;

          (C)  amounts advanced to the Borrower to cure, in full or in part, any
     such Lender's failure to fund its Pro Rata Share of any Loan ("CURE LOANS")
     shall bear interest at the Base Rate in effect from time to time, and for
     all other purposes of this Agreement shall be treated as if they were Base
     Rate Loans; and

          (D)  regardless of whether or not an Event of Default has occurred or
     is continuing, and

                                       69
<Page>

     notwithstanding the instructions of the Borrower as to its desired
     application, all repayments of principal which, in accordance with the
     other terms of this SECTION 4.2, would be applied to the outstanding Base
     Rate Loans shall be applied FIRST, ratably to all Base Rate Loans
     constituting Non Pro Rata Loans, SECOND, ratably to Base Rate Loans other
     than those constituting Non Pro Rata Loans or Cure Loans and, THIRD,
     ratably to Base Rate Loans constituting Cure Loans.

          (c)  PAYMENTS ON NON-BUSINESS DAYS. Whenever any payment to be made by
the Borrower hereunder or under the Notes is stated to be due on a day which is
not a Business Day, the payment shall instead be due on the next succeeding
Business Day (or, as set forth in SECTION 5.2(b)(iii), the next preceding
Business Day).

          IV.3.     PROMISE TO REPAY; EVIDENCE OF INDEBTEDNESS.

          (a)  PROMISE TO REPAY. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay when due the
principal amount of each Loan which is made to it, and further agrees to pay all
unpaid interest accrued thereon, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement
and the Notes. The Borrower shall execute and deliver to each Lender on the
Closing Date, a promissory note, in form and substance acceptable to the Payment
and Disbursement Agent and such Lender, evidencing the Loans and thereafter
shall execute and deliver such other promissory notes as are necessary to
evidence the Loans owing to the Lenders after giving effect to any assignment
thereof pursuant to SECTION 15.1, all in form and substance acceptable to the
Payment and Disbursement Agent and the parties to such assignment (all such
promissory notes and all amendments thereto, replacements thereof and
substitutions therefor being collectively referred to as the "NOTES"; and "NOTE"
means any one of the Notes).

                                       70
<Page>

          (b)  LOAN ACCOUNT. Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its
usual practice an account or accounts (a "LOAN ACCOUNT") evidencing the
Indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan owing to
such Lender from time to time, including the amount of principal and interest
payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder and under the Notes.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure by any Lender to maintain a Loan
Account shall in no way affect the Borrower's obligations hereunder, including,
without limitation, the obligation to repay the Obligations.

          (c)  CONTROL ACCOUNT. The Register maintained by the Payment and
Disbursement Agent pursuant to SECTION 15.1(c) shall include a control account,
and a subsidiary account for each Lender, in which accounts (taken together)
shall be recorded (i) the date and amount of each Borrowing made hereunder, the
type of Loan comprising such Borrowing and any Eurodollar Interest Period or
IBOR Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the effective date and amount of
each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it and the parties
thereto, (iii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to
become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder or under the
Notes and (iv) the amount of any sum received by the Payment and Disbursement
Agent from the Borrower hereunder and each Lender's share thereof.

          (d)  ENTRIES BINDING. The entries made in the Register and each Loan
Account shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

          (e)  NO RECOURSE TO LIMITED PARTNERS OR GENERAL PARTNERS.
Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, it is
expressly understood and agreed that nothing herein or in the Notes shall be
construed as creating any liability on any Limited Partner, any General Partner,
or any partner, officer, shareholder or director of any Limited Partner or any
General Partner, to pay any of the Obligations other than liability arising from
or in connection with (i) fraud or (ii) the

                                       71
<Page>

misappropriation or misapplication of proceeds of the Loans; but nothing
contained in this SECTION 4.3(e) shall be construed to prevent the exercise of
any remedy allowed to the Payment and Disbursement Agent, the Arrangers, the
Co-Agents or the Lenders by law or by the terms of this Agreement or the other
Loan Documents which does not relate to or result in such an obligation by any
Limited Partner or any General Partner (or any partner, officer, shareholder or
director of any Limited Partner or any General Partner) to pay money.

                                INTEREST AND FEES

          V.1.      INTEREST ON THE LOANS AND OTHER OBLIGATIONS.

          (a)  RATE OF INTEREST. All Loans and the outstanding principal balance
of all other Obligations shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount
thereof from the date such Loans are made and such other Obligations are due and
payable until paid in full, except as otherwise provided in SECTION 5.1(d), as
follows:

          (i)       If a Base Rate Loan or such other Obligation, at a rate per
     annum equal to the sum of (A) the Base Rate, as in effect from time to time
     as interest accrues, PLUS (B) the then Applicable Margin for Base Rate
     Loans; and

          (ii)      If a Eurodollar Rate Loan, at a rate per annum equal to the
     sum of (A) the Eurodollar Rate determined for the applicable Eurodollar
     Interest Period, PLUS (B) the then Applicable Margin for Eurodollar Rate
     Loans;

          (iii)     If an IBOR Rate Loan, at a rate per annum equal to the sum
     of (A) the IBOR Rate determined for the applicable IBOR Interest Period,
     PLUS (B) the then Applicable Margin for IBOR Rate Loans;

                                       72
<Page>

          (iv)      If a Eurodollar Money Market Loan, at a rate per annum equal
     to either (A) the sum of (1) the Eurodollar Rate determined for the
     applicable Eurodollar Interest Period (determined as if the related Money
     Market Borrowing were a Committed Eurodollar Rate Borrowing) PLUS (or
     minus) (2) the Money Market Margin quoted by the Lender making such Money
     Market Loan in accordance with SECTION 2.2. or (B) the Money Market Rate,
     as applicable; and

          (v)       If an IBOR Money Market Loan, at a rate per annum equal to
     either (A) the sum of (1) the IBOR Rate determined for the applicable IBOR
     Interest Period (determined as if the related Money Market Borrowing were a
     Committed IBOR Rate Borrowing) PLUS (or minus) (2) the Money Market Margin
     quoted by the Lender making such Money Market Loan in accordance with
     SECTION 2.2. or (B) the Money Market Rate, as applicable.

The applicable basis for determining the rate of interest on the Loans shall be
selected by the Borrower at the time a Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of
Conversion/Continuation is delivered by the Borrower to the Payment and
Disbursement Agent; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, the Borrower may not select the
Eurodollar Rate or the IBOR Rate as the applicable basis for determining the
rate of interest on such a Loan if at the time of such selection an Event of
Default or a Potential Event of Default would occur or has occurred and is
continuing and FURTHER PROVIDED THAT, from and after the occurrence of an Event
of Default or a Potential Event of Default, each Eurodollar Rate Loan and IBOR
Rate Loan then outstanding may, at the Payment and Disbursement Agent's option,
convert to a Base Rate Loan. If on any day any Loan is outstanding with respect
to which notice has not been timely delivered to the Payment and Disbursement
Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement specifying the basis for
determining the rate of interest on that day, then for that

                                       73
<Page>

day interest on that Loan shall be determined by reference to the Base Rate.

          (b)  INTEREST PAYMENTS. (i) Interest accrued on each Committed Loan
shall be calculated on the last day of each calendar month and shall be payable
in arrears (A) on the first day of each calendar month, commencing on the first
such day following the making of such Committed Loan, and (B) if not theretofore
paid in full, at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) of such
Committed Loan.

          (ii)      Interest accrued on each Money Market Loan shall be
calculated on the last day of each calendar month during the Interest Period
applicable thereto (or, if such Interest Period is for a period one month or
less, on the last day of such Interest Period) and shall be payable in arrears
(A) if such Money Market Loan has an Interest Period longer than one month (1)
on the first day of each calendar month, commencing on the first such day
following the making of such Money Market Loan, and (2) if not theretofore paid
in full, at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) of such Money Market
Loan; and (B) if such Money Market Loan has an Interest Period of one month or
less, at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) of such Money Market
Loan.

          (iii)     Interest accrued on the principal balance of all other
Obligations shall be calculated on the last day of each calendar month and shall
be payable in arrears (A) on the first day of each calendar month, commencing on
the first such day following the incurrence of such Obligation, (B) upon
repayment thereof in full or in part, and (C) if not theretofore paid in full,
at the time such other Obligation becomes due and payable (whether by
acceleration or otherwise).

          (c)  CONVERSION OR CONTINUATION. (i) The Borrower shall have the
option (A) to convert at any time all or any part of outstanding Base Rate Loans
to Eurodollar Rate Loans or IBOR Rate Loans; (B) to convert all or any part of
outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loans having Eurodollar

                                       74
<Page>

Interest Periods which expire on the same date to Base Rate Loans or IBOR Rate
Loans on such expiration date; (C) to convert all or any part of outstanding
IBOR Rate Loans having IBOR Interest Periods which expire on the same date to
Base Rate Loans or Eurodollar Rate Loans on such expiration date; (D) to
continue all or any part of outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loans having Eurodollar
Interest Periods which expire on the same date as Eurodollar Rate Loans, and the
succeeding Eurodollar Interest Period of such continued Loans shall commence on
such expiration date; (E) to continue all or any part of outstanding IBOR Rate
Loans having IBOR Interest Periods which expire on the same date as IBOR Rate
Loans, and the succeeding IBOR Interest Period of such continued Loans shall
commence on such expiration date; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, no such outstanding Loan
may be continued as, or be converted into, a Eurodollar Rate Loan or an IBOR
Rate Loan (i) if the continuation of, or the conversion into, would violate any
of the provisions of SECTION 5.2 or (ii) if an Event of Default or a Potential
Event of Default would occur or has occurred and is continuing. Any conversion
into or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans or IBOR Rate Loans under this
SECTION 5.1(c) shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 and in integral
multiples of $100,000 in excess of that amount, except in the case of a
conversion into or a continuation of an entire Borrowing of Non Pro Rata Loans.

          (ii)      To convert or continue a Loan under SECTION 5.1(c)(i), the
Borrower shall deliver a Notice of Conversion/Continuation to the Payment and
Disbursement Agent no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) at least three (3)
Business Days in advance of the proposed conversion/continuation date. A Notice
of Conversion/Continuation shall specify (A) the proposed
conversion/continuation date (which shall be a Business Day), (B) the principal
amount of the Loan to be converted/continued, (C) whether such Loan shall be
converted and/or continued, (D) in the case of a conversion to, or continuation
of, a Eurodollar Rate Loan, the requested Eurodollar Interest Period, and (E) in
the case of a conversion to, or continuation of, an IBOR Rate Loan,

                                       75
<Page>

the requested IBOR Interest Period. In lieu of delivering a Notice of
Conversion/Continuation, the Borrower may give the Payment and Disbursement
Agent telephonic notice of any proposed conversion/continuation by the time
required under this SECTION 5.1(c)(ii), if the Borrower confirms such notice by
delivery of the Notice of Conversion/Continuation to the Payment and
Disbursement Agent by facsimile transmission promptly, but in no event later
than 3:00 p.m. (New York time) on the same day. Promptly after receipt of a
Notice of Conversion/Continuation under this SECTION 5.1(c)(ii) (or telephonic
notice in lieu thereof), the Payment and Disbursement Agent shall notify each
Lender by facsimile transmission, or other similar form of transmission, of the
proposed conversion/continuation. Any Notice of Conversion/Continuation for
conversion to, or continuation of, a Loan (or telephonic notice in lieu thereof)
given pursuant to this SECTION 5.1(c)(ii) shall be irrevocable, and the Borrower
shall be bound to convert or continue in accordance therewith. In the event no
Notice of Conversion/Continuation is delivered as and when specified in this
SECTION 5.1(c)(ii) with respect to outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loans or IBOR
Rate Loans, upon the expiration of the Interest Period applicable thereto, such
Loans shall automatically be continued as Eurodollar Rate Loans with a
Eurodollar Interest Period of thirty (30) days; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, no such
outstanding Loan may be continued as, or be converted into, a Eurodollar Rate
Loan or an IBOR Rate Loan (i) if the continuation of, or the conversion into,
would violate any of the provisions of SECTION 5.2 or (ii) if an Event of
Default or a Potential Event of Default would occur or has occurred and is
continuing.

          (d)  DEFAULT INTEREST. Notwithstanding the rates of interest specified
in SECTION 5.1(a) or elsewhere in this Agreement, effective immediately upon the
occurrence of an Event of Default, and for as long thereafter as such Event of
Default shall be continuing, the principal balance of all Loans and other
Obligations shall bear interest at a rate equal to the sum of (A) the Base Rate,
as in effect

                                       76
<Page>

from time to time as interest accrues, PLUS (B) four percent (4.0%) per annum.

          (e)  COMPUTATION OF INTEREST. Interest on all Obligations shall be
computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in the period during
which interest accrues and a year of 360 days. In computing interest on any
Loan, the date of the making of the Loan or the first day of a Eurodollar
Interest Period, as the case may be, shall be included and the date of payment
or the expiration date of a Eurodollar Interest Period, as the case may be,
shall be excluded; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, if a Loan is repaid on the same day on
which it is made, one (1) day's interest shall be paid on such Loan.

          (f)  EURODOLLAR RATE INFORMATION. Upon the reasonable request of the
Borrower from time to time, the Payment and Disbursement Agent shall promptly
provide to the Borrower such information with respect to the applicable
Eurodollar Rate as may be so requested.

          (g)  IBOR RATE INFORMATION. Upon the reasonable request of the
Borrower from time to time, the Payment and Disbursement Agent shall promptly
provide to the Borrower such information with respect to the applicable IBOR
Rate as may be so requested.

          V.2.      SPECIAL PROVISIONS GOVERNING EURODOLLAR RATE LOANS, IBOR
RATE LOANS, AND MONEY MARKET LOANS.

          (a)  AMOUNT OF EURODOLLAR RATE LOANS AND IBOR RATE LOANS. Each
Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be in a minimum principal amount of $1,500,000 and in
integral multiples of $100,000 in excess of that amount. Each IBOR Rate Loan
shall be in a minimum principal amount of $1,500,000 and in integral multiples
of $100,000 in excess of that amount. IBOR Rate Loans shall not, in the
aggregate outstanding at any time, exceed the lesser of (i) $150,000,000 and
(ii) the Revolving Credit Availability.

     written consent of the Payment and Disbursement Agent, a shorter or a
     longer duration;

          (ii)      The Borrower may only select, as to a particular Borrowing
     of Eurodollar Money Market Loans, a Eurodollar Interest Period of one, two,

          (iii)     In the case of immediately successive Eurodollar Interest
     Periods applicable to a Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans, each successive
     Eurodollar Interest Period shall commence on the day on which the next
     preceding Eurodollar Interest Period expires;

          (iv)      If any Eurodollar Interest Period would otherwise expire on
     a day which is not a Business Day, such Eurodollar Interest Period shall be
     extended to expire on the next succeeding Business Day if the next
     succeeding Business Day occurs in the same calendar month, and if there
     will be no succeeding Business Day in such calendar month, the Eurodollar
     Interest

     Period expires;

          (viii)    If any IBOR Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day
     which is not a Business Day, such IBOR Interest Period shall be extended to
     expire on the next succeeding Business Day if the next succeeding Business
     Day occurs in the same calendar month, and if there will be no succeeding
     Business Day in such calendar month, the IBOR Interest Period shall expire
     on the immediately preceding Business Day;

          (ix)      The Borrower may not select an IBOR Interest Period as to
     any IBOR Rate Loan or IBOR Money Market Loan if such IBOR Interest Period
     terminates during any IBOR Black-Out Period;

          (x)       The Borrower may not select an Interest Period as to any
     Loan if such Interest Period terminates later than the Revolving Credit
     Termination Date;

                                       79
<Page>

          (xi)      The Borrower may not select an Interest Period with respect
     to any portion of principal of a Loan which extends beyond a date on which
     the Borrower is required to make a scheduled payment of such portion of
     principal; and

          (xii)     There shall be no more than twelve (12) Interest Periods in
     effect at any one time with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans or IBOR Rate
     Loans.

          (c)  DETERMINATION OF EURODOLLAR INTEREST RATE AND IBOR RATE.

          (i)       As soon as practicable on the second Business Day prior to
     the first day of each Eurodollar Interest Period (the "EURODOLLAR INTEREST
     RATE DETERMINATION DATE"), the Payment and Disbursement Agent shall
     determine (pursuant to the procedures set forth in the definition of
     "Eurodollar Rate") the interest rate which shall apply to the Eurodollar
     Rate Loans or Eurodollar Money Market Loans for which an interest rate is
     then being determined for the applicable Eurodollar Interest Period and
     shall promptly give notice thereof (in writing or by telephone confirmed in
     writing) to the Borrower and to each Lender. The Payment and Disbursement
     Agent's determination shall be presumed to be correct, absent manifest
     error, and shall be binding upon the Borrower.

          (ii)      As soon as practicable on (A) the Business Day prior to the
     first day of each IBOR Interest Period, with respect to an IBOR Rate Loan
     and (B) the second Business Day prior to the first day of each IBOR
     Interest Period with respect to an IBOR Money Market Loan (each, an "IBOR
     INTEREST RATE DETERMINATION DATE"), the Payment and Disbursement Agent
     shall determine (pursuant to the procedures set forth in the definition of
     "IBOR Rate") the interest

                                       80
<Page>

     rate which shall apply to the IBOR Rate Loans or IBOR Money Market Loans
     for which an interest rate is then being determined for the applicable IBOR
     Interest Period and shall promptly give notice thereof (in writing or by
     telephone confirmed in writing) to the Borrower and to each Lender. The
     Payment and Disbursement Agent's determination shall be presumed to be
     correct, absent manifest error, and shall be binding upon the Borrower and
     each Lender.

          (d)  INTEREST RATE UNASCERTAINABLE, INADEQUATE OR UNFAIR. In the event
that at least one (1) Business Day before a Eurodollar Interest Rate
Determination Date or an IBOR Interest Rate Determination Date:

          (i)       the Payment and Disbursement Agent is advised (A) by the
     Reference Bank that deposits in Dollars (in the applicable amounts) are not
     being offered by the Reference Bank in the London interbank market for such
     Eurodollar Interest Period, or (B) by the IBOR Reference Banks that
     deposits in Dollars (in the applicable amounts) are not being offered by
     the Reference Banks in the interbank market for such IBOR Interest Period;
     or

          (ii)      the Payment and Disbursement Agent determines that adequate
     and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable interest rates
     by reference to which the Eurodollar Rate or the IBOR Rate (as
     applicable)then being determined is to be fixed; or

          (iii)     the Requisite Lenders advise the Payment and Disbursement
     Agent that (A) the Eurodollar Rate for Eurodollar Rate Loans comprising
     such Borrowing will not adequately reflect the cost to such Requisite
     Lenders of obtaining funds in Dollars in the London interbank market in the
     amount substantially equal to such Lenders' Eurodollar Rate Loans in
     Dollars and for a period

                                       81
<Page>

     equal to such Eurodollar Interest Period, or (B) the IBOR Rate for IBOR
     Rate Loans comprising such Borrowing will not adequately reflect the cost
     to such Requisite Lenders of obtaining funds in Dollars in the interbank
     market in the amount substantially equal to such Lenders' IBOR Rate Loans
     in Dollars and for a period equal to such IBOR Interest Period; or

          (iv)      (A) the applicable Lender(s) advise the Payment and
     Disbursement Agent that the Eurodollar Rate for Eurodollar Money Market
     Loans comprising such Borrowing will not adequately reflect the cost to
     such Lender(s) of obtaining funds in Dollars in the London Interbank market
     in the amount substantially equal to such Lender(s)' Money Market Loans in
     Dollars and for a period equal to such Eurodollar Interest Period, or (B)
     the applicable Lender(s) advise the Payment and Disbursement Agent that the
     IBOR Rate for IBOR Money Market Loans comprising such Borrowing will not
     adequately reflect the cost to such Lender(s) of obtaining funds in Dollars
     in the interbank market in the amount substantially equal to such
     Lender(s)' IBOR Money Market Loans in Dollars and for a period equal to
     such IBOR Interest Period;

then the Payment and Disbursement Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to
the Borrower, whereupon (until the Payment and Disbursement Agent notifies the
Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist)
the right of the Borrower to elect to have Loans bear interest based upon the
Eurodollar Rate or the IBOR Rate, as applicable, shall be suspended and each
outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loan and Eurodollar Money Market Loan or IBOR Rate
Loan and IBOR Money Market Loan, as applicable, shall be converted into a Base
Rate Loan on the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor,
notwithstanding any prior election by the Borrower to the contrary.

                                       82
<Page>

          (e)  ILLEGALITY. (i) If at any time any Lender determines (which
determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding
upon all parties) that the making or continuation of any Eurodollar Rate Loan,
IBOR Rate Loan or Money Market Loan has become unlawful or impermissible by
compliance by that Lender with any law, governmental rule, regulation or order
of any Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law and
whether or not failure to comply therewith would be unlawful or would result in
costs or penalties), then, and in any such event, such Lender may give notice of
that determination, in writing, to the Borrower and the Payment and Disbursement
Agent, and the Payment and Disbursement Agent shall promptly transmit the notice
to each other Lender.

          (ii)      When notice is given by a Lender under SECTION 5.2(e)(i),
(a) the Borrower's right to request from such Lender and such Lender's
obligation, if any, to make Eurodollar Rate Loans or IBOR Rate Loans, as
applicable, shall be immediately suspended, and such Lender shall make a Base
Rate Loan as part of any requested Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans or IBOR
Rate Loans (as applicable) and (B) if the affected Eurodollar Rate Loans, IBOR
Rate Loans, Eurodollar Money Market Loans, or IBOR Money Market Loans are then
outstanding, the Borrower shall immediately, or if permitted by applicable law,
no later than the date permitted thereby, upon at least one (1) Business Day's
prior written notice to the Payment and Disbursement Agent and the affected
Lender, convert each such Loan into a Base Rate Loan.

          (iii)     If at any time after a Lender gives notice under SECTION
5.2(e)(i) such Lender determines that it may lawfully make Eurodollar Rate Loans
and/or IBOR Rate Loans (as applicable), such Lender shall promptly give notice
of that determination, in writing, to the Borrower and the Payment and
Disbursement Agent, and the Payment and Disbursement Agent shall promptly
transmit the notice to each other Lender. The Borrower's right to request, and
such

                                       83
<Page>

Lender's obligation, if any, to make Eurodollar Rate Loans and/or IBOR Rate
Loans(as applicable) shall thereupon be restored.

          (f)  COMPENSATION. In addition to all amounts required to be paid by
the Borrower pursuant to SECTION 5.1 and ARTICLE XIII, the Borrower shall
compensate each Lender, upon demand, for all losses, expenses and liabilities
(including, without limitation, any loss or expense incurred by reason of the
liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender
to fund or maintain such Lender's Eurodollar Rate Loans, IBOR Rate Loans and/or
Money Market Loans to the Borrower but excluding any loss of Applicable Margin
on the relevant Loans) which that Lender may sustain (i) if for any reason a
Borrowing, conversion into or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans and/or
Eurodollar Money Market Loans or IBOR Rate Loans and/or IBOR Rate Money Market
Loans does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or a
Notice of Conversion/Continuation given by the Borrower or in a telephonic
request by it for borrowing or conversion/ continuation or a successive
Eurodollar Interest Period or IBOR Interest Period does not commence after
notice therefor is given pursuant to SECTION 5.1(c), including, without
limitation, pursuant to SECTION 5.2(d), (ii) if for any reason any Eurodollar
Rate Loan, IBOR Rate Loan or Money Market Loan is prepaid (including, without
limitation, mandatorily pursuant to SECTION 4.1(d)) on a date which is not the
last day of the applicable Interest Period, (iii) as a consequence of a required
conversion of a Eurodollar Rate Loan, IBOR Rate Loan or Money Market Loan to a
Base Rate Loan as a result of any of the events indicated in SECTION 5.2(d), or
(iv) as a consequence of any failure by the Borrower to repay a Eurodollar Rate
Loan, IBOR Rate Loan or Money Market Loan when required by the terms of this
Agreement. The Lender making demand for such compensation shall deliver to the
Borrower concurrently with such demand a written statement in reasonable detail
as to such losses, expenses and liabilities, and this statement shall be
conclusive as to

                                       84
<Page>

the amount of compensation due to that Lender, absent manifest error.

          (g)  BOOKING OF EURODOLLAR RATE LOANS, IBOR RATE LOANS AND MONEY
MARKET LOANS. Any Lender may make, carry or transfer Eurodollar Rate Loans, IBOR
Rate Loans and Money Market Loans at, to, or for the account of, its Eurodollar
Lending Office or Eurodollar Affiliate or its other offices or Affiliates. No
Lender shall be entitled, however, to receive any greater amount under SECTIONS
4.2 or 5.2(f) or ARTICLE XIII as a result of the transfer of any such Eurodollar
Rate Loan, IBOR Rate Loan or Money Market Loan to any office (other than such
Eurodollar Lending Office) or any Affiliate (other than such Eurodollar
Affiliate) than such Lender would have been entitled to receive immediately
prior thereto, unless (i) the transfer occurred at a time when circumstances
giving rise to the claim for such greater amount did not exist and (ii) such
claim would have arisen even if such transfer had not occurred.

          (h)  AFFILIATES NOT OBLIGATED. No Eurodollar Affiliate or other
Affiliate of any Lender shall be deemed a party to this Agreement or shall have
any liability or obligation under this Agreement.

          (i)  ADJUSTED EURODOLLAR RATE. Any failure by any Lender to take
into account the Eurodollar Reserve Percentage when calculating interest due on
Eurodollar Rate Loans or Money Market Loans shall not constitute, whether by
course of dealing or otherwise, a waiver by such Lender of its right to collect
such amount for any future period.

          V.3.      FEES.

          (a)  FACILITY FEE. During the time, from time to time, that the
Borrower maintains an Investment Grade Credit Rating, the Borrower shall pay to
the Payment and Disbursement Agent, for the account of the Lenders based on
their respective Pro Rata Shares, a fee (the "FACILITY FEE"), accruing at a per
annum rate equal to the then applicable Facility Fee Percentage on the Maximum
Revolving

                                       85
<Page>

Credit Amount, such fee being payable quarterly, in arrears, commencing on the
first day of the fiscal quarter next succeeding the Closing Date and on the
first day of each fiscal quarter thereafter for so long as the Borrower
maintains an Investment Grade Credit Rating and on the Revolving Credit
Termination Date; provided, however, that in the event that the Borrower loses
its Investment Grade Credit Rating during any fiscal quarter, the Facility Fee
shall be payable only for the portion of such fiscal quarter during which
Borrower maintained an Investment Grade Credit Rating. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in the event that any Lender fails to fund its Pro Rata Share of any
Loan requested by the Borrower which such Lender is obligated to fund under the
terms of this Agreement, (A) such Lender shall not be entitled to any portion of
the Facility Fee with respect to its Revolving Credit Commitment until such
failure has been cured in accordance with SECTION 4.2(b)(v)(B) and (B) until
such time, the Facility Fee shall accrue in favor of the Lenders which have
funded their respective Pro Rata Shares of such requested Loan, shall be
allocated among such performing Lenders ratably based upon their relative
Revolving Credit Commitments, and shall be calculated based upon the average
amount by which the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments of such performing
Lenders exceeds the sum of (I) the outstanding principal amount of the Loans
owing to such performing Lenders, and (II) the outstanding Reimbursement
Obligations owing to such performing Lenders, and (III) the aggregate
participation interests of such performing Lenders arising pursuant to SECTION
3.1(e) with respect to undrawn and outstanding Letters of Credit.

          (b)  UNUSED COMMITMENT FEE. During the time, from time to time, that
the Borrower fails to maintain an Investment Grade Credit Rating, the Borrower
shall pay to the Payment and Disbursement Agent, for the account of the Lenders
based on their respective Pro Rata Shares, a fee (the "UNUSED COMMITMENT FEE"),
accruing at a per annum rate equal to the then applicable Unused Commitment Fee
Percentage on the Unused Facility, such fee being payable quarterly, in arrears,
commencing on the first day of the

                                       86
<Page>

fiscal quarter next succeeding the date that the Borrower fails to maintain an
Investment Grade Credit Rating and on the first day of each fiscal quarter
thereafter (and on the Revolving Credit Termination Date, until the Borrower
regains an Investment Grade Credit Rating; provided, however, that in the event
that the Borrower regains an Investment Grade Credit Rating during any fiscal
quarter, the Unused Commitment Fee shall be payable only for the portion of such
fiscal quarter during which Borrower failed to maintain an Investment Grade
Credit Rating. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any Lender fails
to fund its Pro Rata Share of any Loan requested by the Borrower which such
Lender is obligated to fund under the terms of this Agreement, (A) such Lender
shall not be entitled to any portion of the Unused Commitment Fee with respect
to its Revolving Credit Commitment until such failure has been cured in
accordance with SECTION 4.2(b)(v)(B) and (B) until such time, the Unused
Commitment Fee shall accrue in favor of the Lenders which have funded their
respective Pro Rata Shares of such requested Loan, shall be allocated among such
performing Lenders ratably based upon their relative Revolving Credit
Commitments, and shall be calculated based upon the average amount by which the
aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments of such performing Lenders exceeds the
sum of (I) the outstanding principal amount of the Loans owing to such
performing Lenders, and (II) the outstanding Reimbursement Obligations owing to
such performing Lenders, and (III) the aggregate participation interests of such
performing Lenders arising pursuant to SECTION 3.1(e) with respect to undrawn
and outstanding Letters of Credit.

          (c)  CALCULATION AND PAYMENT OF FEES. All fees shall be calculated on
the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a 360-day year. All fees shall
be payable in addition to, and not in lieu of, interest, compensation, expense
reimbursements, indemnification and other Obligations. Fees shall be payable to
the Payment and Disbursement Agent at its office in New York, New York in
immediately available funds. All fees shall be fully earned and nonrefundable
when paid. All fees due to any Arranger or

                                       87
<Page>

any other Lender, including, without limitation, those referred to in this
SECTION 5.3, shall bear interest, if not paid when due, at the interest rate
specified in SECTION 5.1(d) and shall constitute Obligations.

likely to have a Material Adverse Effect, or (B) subject to or in default with

Company's, the Borrower's or its Subsidiaries' predecessors in interest with
respect to the Projects for all tax periods prior to and including the taxable
year ending December 31, 1997 and the appropriate state Governmental Authority
in each state in which the Company's, the Borrower's or its Subsidiaries'
predecessors in interest with respect to the Projects were required to file
state income tax returns has examined (or is foreclosed from examining by
applicable statutes) the state income tax returns of any of such Persons with

such Persons as a result of any federal, state, local or foreign tax examination
for each taxable year in respect of which an examination has been conducted have
been fully paid or finally settled or are being contested in good faith, and no
issue has been raised in any such examination which, by application of similar
principles, reasonably can be expected to result in assertion of a material
deficiency for any other year not so examined which has not been reserved for in
the financial statements of such Persons to the extent, if any, required by
GAAP. No such Person has taken any reporting positions for which it does not
have a reasonable basis nor anticipates any further material tax liability with
respect to the years which have not been closed pursuant to applicable law.

          (l)  PAYMENT OF TAXES. All tax returns, reports and similar statements
or filings of each of the Persons described in SECTION 7.1(k), the Company, the

charges of Governmental Authorities are being contested in good faith by an
appropriate proceeding diligently pursued as permitted by the terms of SECTION
9.4 and (ii) such taxes, assessments, fees and other charges of Governmental
Authorities pertain to Property of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries and
the non-payment of the amounts thereof would not, individually or in the
aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Effect. All other taxes (including,
without limitation, real estate taxes), assessments, fees and other governmental
charges upon or relating to the respective Properties of the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries which are due and payable have been paid, except for Customary
Permitted Liens and except to the extent described in clauses (i) and (ii)

Affiliates has received any notice, citation or allegation, nor has actual
knowledge, that (i) it is in default in the performance, observance or
fulfillment of any of the obligations, covenants or conditions contained in any
Contractual Obligation applicable to it, (ii) any of its Properties is in
violation of any Requirements of Law or (iii) any condition exists which, with
the giving of notice or the lapse of time or both, would constitute a default

Material Adverse Effect.

          (n)  DISCLOSURE. The representations and warranties of the Borrower

Revenue Code due to a Plan amendment that results in an increase in current
liability for the plan year. Except as disclosed on SCHEDULE 7.1-Q, neither the

          Borrower covenants and agrees that it shall comply with the following
covenants so long as any Revolving Credit Commitments are outstanding and
thereafter until payment in full of all of the Obligations (other than
indemnities pursuant to SECTION 15.3 not yet due), unless the Requisite Lenders
shall otherwise give prior written consent:

          X.1.      INDEBTEDNESS. Neither the Borrower nor any of its
Subsidiaries shall directly or indirectly create, incur, assume or otherwise
become or remain directly or indirectly liable with respect to any Indebtedness,
except Indebtedness which, when aggregated with Total Adjusted Outstanding
Indebtedness of the Borrower as of the time of determination, would not exceed
(i) sixty percent (60%) of Capitalization Value as of the date of incurrence, or
(ii) in the case of Secured Indebtedness of the Consolidated Businesses and the
Borrower's proportionate share of Secured Indebtedness of its Minority Holdings,
fifty-five percent (55%) of the Capitalization Value. In addition, neither the
Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries shall incur, directly or indirectly,
Indebtedness for borrowed money from any of the General Partners, unless such
Indebtedness is unsecured and expressly subordinated to the payment of the
Obligations.

          X.2.      SALES OF ASSETS. Neither the Borrower nor any of its
Subsidiaries shall sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of

shall directly or indirectly create, incur, assume or permit to exist any Lien
on or with respect to any Property, except:

     for any Project;

          (b)  Liens securing permitted Secured Indebtedness; and

          (c)  Customary Permitted Liens.

          X.4.      INVESTMENTS. Neither the Borrower nor any of its

          (c)  Investments in the form of advances to employees in the ordinary
     course of business; PROVIDED THAT the aggregate principal amount of all
     such advances at any time outstanding shall not exceed $1,000,000;

     reorganization of suppliers and lessees and in settlement of delinquent
     obligations of, and other disputes with, lessees and suppliers arising in
     the ordinary course of business;

          (e)  Investments (i) in any individual Project (other than Mall of
     America), which when combined with like Investments of the General Partners
     in such Project, do not exceed ten percent (10%) of the Capitalization
     Value after giving effect to such Investments of the Borrower or (ii) in a
     single Person owning a Project or Property, or a portfolio of Projects or
     Properties,

                                       124
<Page>

     which when combined with like Investments of the General Partners in such
     Person, do not exceed thirty-three percent (33%) of the Capitalization
     Value after giving effect to such Investments of the Borrower, it being
     understood that no Investment in any individual Person will be permitted if
     the Borrower's allocable share of the Investment of such Person in any
     individual Project would exceed the limitation described in clause (i)
     hereinabove.

          X.5.      CONDUCT OF BUSINESS. Neither the Borrower nor any of its
Subsidiaries shall engage in any business, enterprise or activity other than (a)
the businesses of acquiring, developing, re-developing and managing
predominantly retail and mixed use Projects and portfolios of like Projects and

sale, lease or exchange of any property or the rendering of any service) with
any holder or holders of more than five percent (5%) of any class of equity
Securities of the Borrower, or with any Affiliate of the Borrower which is not
its Subsidiary, on terms that are determined by the respective Boards of
Directors of the General Partners to be less favorable to the Borrower or any of
its Subsidiaries, as applicable, than those that might be obtained in an arm's
length transaction at the time from Persons who are not such a holder or
Affiliate. Nothing contained in this SECTION 10.6 shall prohibit (a) increases
in compensation and benefits for officers and employees of the Borrower or any
of its Subsidiaries which are customary in the industry or consistent with the
past business practice of the Borrower or such Subsidiary, PROVIDED THAT no

series of transactions, all or substantially all of the Borrower's or any such
Subsidiary's business or Property, whether now or hereafter acquired, except in
connection with issuance, transfer, conversion or repurchase of limited

     exemption is not available or a private exemption has not been previously
     obtained from the DOL;

          (b)  permit to exist any accumulated funding deficiency (as defined in
     Sections 302 of ERISA and 412 of the Internal Revenue Code), with respect
     to any Plan, whether or not waived;

          (e)  fail to make any contribution or payment to any Multiemployer

     thereto;

          (f)  fail to pay any required installment or any other payment
     required under Section 412 of the Internal Revenue Code on or before the
     due date for such installment or other payment; or

          (g)  amend a Plan resulting in an increase in current liability for
     the plan year such that the Borrower or any ERISA Affiliate is required to
     provide security to such Plan under Section 401(a)(29) of the Internal
     Revenue Code.

          X.10.     ORGANIZATIONAL DOCUMENTS. Neither the General Partners, the

          (c)  MINIMUM DEBT SERVICE COVERAGE RATIO. As of the first day of each
fiscal quarter for the immediately preceding consecutive four fiscal quarters,
the ratio of Combined EBITDA to Combined Debt Service shall not be less than

          X.13.     PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS. In connection with an acquisition of
a Project, a Property, or a portfolio of Projects or Properties, by any of the
Consolidated Businesses or any Minority Holding (whether such acquisition is
direct or through the acquisition of a Person which owns such Property), the
financial covenants contained in this Agreement shall be calculated as follows
on a PRO FORMA basis (with respect to the PRO RATA share of the Borrower in the
case of an acquisition by a Minority Holding), which PRO FORMA calculation shall
be effective until the last day of the fourth fiscal quarter following such
acquisition (or such earlier test period, as applicable), at which time actual
performance shall be utilized for such calculations.

          (a)  ANNUAL EBITDA. Annual EBITDA for the acquired Property shall be
deemed to be an amount equal to (i) the net purchase price of the acquired
Property (or the Borrower's pro rata share of such net purchase price in the
event of an acquisition by a Minority Holding) for the first fiscal quarter
following such acquisition, multiplied by 8.25% and (ii) for the succeeding
three fiscal quarters, Annual EBITDA shall be deemed the greater of (A) the net
purchase price multiplied by 8.25%, or (B) the actual EBITDA from such acquired
Property during the period following Borrower's (direct or indirect)
acquisition, computed on an annualized basis, provided that such annualized
EBITDA shall in no event exceed the final product obtained after multiplying (1)
the net purchase price by (2) 1.1, and then by (3) 8.25%.

          (b)  COMBINED EBITDA. The pro forma calculation of Annual EBITDA for
the acquired Property shall be added to the calculation of Combined EBITDA.

          (c)  UNENCUMBERED COMBINED EBITDA. If, after giving effect to the
acquisition, the acquired Property will not be encumbered by Secured
Indebtedness, then the pro forma Annual EBITDA for the acquired Property shall
be added to the calculation of Unencumbered Combined EBITDA.

<Page>

          (d)  SECURED INDEBTEDNESS. Any Indebtedness secured by a Lien incurred
and/or assumed in connection with such acquisition of a Property shall be added
to the calculation of Secured Indebtedness.

          (e)  TOTAL ADJUSTED OUTSTANDING INDEBTEDNESS. Any Indebtedness
incurred and/or assumed in connection with such acquisition shall be added to
the calculation of Total Adjusted Outstanding Indebtedness.

          (f)  COMBINED INTEREST EXPENSE. If any Indebtedness is incurred or
assumed in connection with such acquisition, then the amount of interest expense
to be incurred on such Indebtedness during the period following such
acquisition, computed on an annualized basis during the applicable period, shall
be added to the calculation of Combined Interest Expense.

          (g)  TOTAL UNSECURED OUTSTANDING INDEBTEDNESS. Any Indebtedness which
is not secured by a Lien and which is incurred and/or assumed in connection with
such acquisition shall be added to the calculation of Total Unsecured
Outstanding Indebtedness.

          (h)  UNSECURED INTEREST EXPENSE. If any unsecured Indebtedness is
incurred or assumed in connection with such acquisition, then the amount of
interest expense to be incurred on such Indebtedness during the period following
such acquisition, computed on an annualized basis during the applicable period,
shall be added to the calculation of Unsecured Interest Expense.

          (i)  DEBT YIELD AND UNENCUMBERED DEBT YIELD. For purposes of
calculating Debt Yield and Unencumbered Debt Yield only, non-recourse
Indebtedness and completion guarantees incurred for the construction of new
Projects shall, until such time as the interest expense associated with such
financing need no longer be capitalized in accordance with GAAP, be excluded
from the calculation of Total Adjusted Outstanding Indebtedness (provided that
recourse Indebtedness and repayment guarantees shall be included in such
calculation).

unbonded or unstayed for a period of sixty (60) days or in any event later than

HOWEVER, if any such judgment, writ or warrant of attachment or similar process

the Payment and Disbursement Agent believes could subject either the Borrower or
any ERISA Affiliate to liability in excess of $500,000.

without limitation, valuation and appraisement, diligence, presentment, notice
of intent to demand or accelerate and of acceleration), all of which are hereby
expressly waived by the Borrower; and upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of any other Event of Default, the Payment and Disbursement Agent
shall at the request, or may with the consent, of the Requisite Lenders, by
written notice to the Borrower, (i) declare that the Revolving Credit
Commitments are terminated, whereupon the Revolving Credit Commitments and the
obligation of each Lender to make any Loan hereunder and of each Lender to issue
or participate in any Letter of Credit not then issued shall immediately
terminate, and/or (ii) declare the unpaid principal amount of and any and all
accrued and unpaid interest on the Obligations to be, and the same shall
thereupon be, immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, or
protest or other requirements of any kind (including, without limitation,
valuation and appraisement, diligence, presentment, notice of intent to demand
or accelerate and of acceleration), all of which are hereby expressly waived by
the Borrower.

          (b)  RESCISSION. If at any time after termination of the Revolving
Credit Commitments and/or acceleration of the maturity of the Loans, the
Borrower shall pay all arrears of interest and all payments on account of
principal of the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations which shall have become due
otherwise than by acceleration (with interest on principal and, to the extent
permitted by law, on overdue interest, at the rates specified in this Agreement)
and all Events of Default and Potential Events of Default (other than nonpayment
of principal of and accrued interest on the Loans due and

                                       137
<Page>

payable solely by virtue of acceleration) shall be remedied or waived pursuant
to SECTION 15.7, then upon the written consent of the Requisite Lenders and
written notice to the Borrower, the termination of the Revolving Credit
Commitments and/or the acceleration and their consequences may be rescinded and
annulled; but such action shall not affect any subsequent Event of Default or
Potential Event of Default or impair any right or remedy consequent thereon. The
provisions of the preceding sentence are intended merely to bind the Lenders to
a decision which may be made at the election of the Requisite Lenders; they are
not intended to benefit the Borrower and do not give the Borrower the right to
require the Lenders to rescind or annul any acceleration hereunder, even if the
conditions set forth herein are met.

          (c)  ENFORCEMENT. The Borrower acknowledges that in the event the
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries fails to perform, observe or discharge any
of their respective obligations or liabilities under this Agreement or any other
Loan Document, any remedy of law may prove to be inadequate relief to the
Payment and Disbursement Agent, the Arrangers and the other Lenders; therefore,
the Borrower agrees that the Payment and Disbursement Agent, the Arrangers and
the other Lenders shall be entitled to temporary and permanent injunctive relief
in any such case without the necessity of proving actual damages.

                                   ARTICLE XII
                                   THE AGENTS

          XII.1.    APPOINTMENT. (a) Each Lender hereby designates and appoints
UBS as the Payment and Disbursement Agent, the Arrangers as the Arrangers, and
the Co-Agents as the Co-Agents of such Lender under this Agreement, and each
Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes the Payment and Disbursement Agent, the
Arrangers, and the Co-Agents to take such actions on its behalf under the
provisions of this Agreement and the Loan Documents and to exercise such powers
as are set forth herein or therein together with

                                       138
<Page>

such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Payment and
Disbursement Agent, the Arrangers and the Co-Agents each agree to act as such on
the express conditions contained in this ARTICLE XII. The Payment and
Disbursement Agent shall administer this Agreement and service the Loans with
the same degree of care as the Payment and Disbursement Agent would use in
servicing a loan of similar size and type for its own account.

          (b)  The provisions of this ARTICLE XII are solely for the benefit of
the Payment and Disbursement Agent, the Arrangers, the Co-Agents and the other
Lenders, and neither the Borrower, the General Partners nor any Subsidiary of
the Borrower shall have any rights to rely on or enforce any of the provisions
hereof (other than as expressly set forth in SECTION 12.7). In performing their
respective functions and duties under this Agreement, the Payment and
Disbursement Agent, each Arranger, and each Co-Agent shall act solely as agents
of the Lenders and do not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any
obligation or relationship of agency, trustee or fiduciary with or for any
General Partner, the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower. The Payment and
Disbursement Agent, each Arranger and each Co-Agent may perform any of their
respective duties hereunder, or under the Loan Documents, by or through their
respective agents or employees.

          XII.2.    NATURE OF DUTIES. The Payment and Disbursement Agent, the
Arrangers and the Co-Agents shall not have any duties or responsibilities except
those expressly set forth in this Agreement or in the Loan Documents. The duties
of the Payment and Disbursement Agent, the Arrangers, and the Co-Agents shall be
mechanical and administrative in nature. None of the Payment and Disbursement
Agent, any Arranger, or any Co-Agent shall have by reason of this Agreement a
fiduciary relationship in respect of any Holder. Nothing in this Agreement or
any of the Loan Documents, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be
construed to impose upon the Payment and Disbursement Agent or any Arranger, or
Co-Agent any

                                       139
<Page>

obligations in respect of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents except as
expressly set forth herein or therein. The Payment and Disbursement Agent and
each Arranger and Co-Agent each hereby agrees that its duties shall include
providing copies of documents received by such Agent from the Borrower which are
reasonably requested by any Lender and promptly notifying each Lender upon its
obtaining actual knowledge of the occurrence of any Event of Default hereunder.
In addition, the Payment and Disbursement Agent shall promptly deliver to each
of the Lenders copies of all notices of default and other formal notices
(including, without limitation, requests for waivers or modifications) sent or
received.

          XII.3.    RIGHT TO REQUEST INSTRUCTIONS. The Payment and Disbursement
Agent and each Arranger and Co-Agent may at any time request instructions from
the Lenders with respect to any actions or approvals which by the terms of any
of the Loan Documents such Agent is permitted or required to take or to grant,
and such Agent shall be absolutely entitled to refrain from taking any action or
to withhold any approval and shall not be under any liability whatsoever to any
Person for refraining from any action or withholding any approval under any of
the Loan Documents until it shall have received such instructions from those
Lenders from whom such Agent is required to obtain such instructions for the
pertinent matter in accordance with the Loan Documents. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, such Agent shall take any action, or refrain from
taking any action, which is permitted by the terms of the Loan Documents upon
receipt of instructions from those Lenders from whom such Agent is required to
obtain such instructions for the pertinent matter in accordance with the Loan
Documents, PROVIDED, that no Holder shall have any right of action whatsoever
against the Payment and Disbursement Agent or any Arranger or Co-Agent as a
result of such Agent acting or refraining from acting under the Loan Documents
in accordance with the instructions of the Requisite Lenders or, where required
by the express terms of this Agreement, a greater proportion of the Lenders.

                                       140
<Page>

          XII.4.    RELIANCE. The Payment and Disbursement Agent and each
Arranger and Co-Agent shall each be entitled to rely upon any written notices,
statements, certificates, orders or other documents or any telephone message
believed by it in good faith to be genuine and correct and to have been signed,
sent or made by the proper Person, and with respect to all matters pertaining to
this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents and its duties hereunder or
thereunder, upon advice of legal counsel (including counsel for the Borrower),
independent public accountants and other experts selected by it.

          XII.5.    INDEMNIFICATION. To the extent that the Payment and
Disbursement Agent or any Arranger or Co-Agent is not reimbursed and indemnified
by the Borrower, the Lenders will reimburse and indemnify such Agent solely in
its capacity as such Agent and not as a Lender for and against any and all
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits,
and reasonable costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever
which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against it in any way relating
to or arising out of the Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by such
Agent under the Loan Documents, in proportion to each Lender's Pro Rata Share,
unless and to the extent that any such liabilities, obligations, losses,
damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, and reasonable costs, expenses or
disbursements shall arise as a result of such Agent's gross negligence or
willful misconduct. Such Agent agrees to refund to the Lenders any of the
foregoing amounts paid to it by the Lenders which amounts are subsequently
recovered by such Agent from the Borrower or any other Person on behalf of the
Borrower. The obligations of the Lenders under this SECTION 12.5 shall survive
the payment in full of the Loans, the Reimbursement Obligations and all other
Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

          XII.6.    AGENTS INDIVIDUALLY. With respect to their respective Pro
Rata Share of the Revolving Credit Commitments hereunder, if any, and the Loans
made by them, if any, the Payment and Disbursement Agent, the Arrangers

                                       141
<Page>

and the Co-Agents shall have and may exercise the same rights and powers
hereunder and are subject to the same obligations and liabilities as and to the
extent set forth herein for any other Lender. The terms "Lenders" or "Requisite
Lenders" or any similar terms shall, unless the context clearly otherwise
indicates, include the Payment and Disbursement Agent, each Arranger and each
other Co-Agent in its respective individual capacity as a Lender or as one of
the Requisite Lenders. The Payment and Disbursement Agent and each other
Arranger and Co-Agent and each of their respective Affiliates may accept
deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust
or other business with the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries as if they were
not acting as the Payment and Disbursement Agent, the Arrangers, and Co-Agents
pursuant hereto.

          XII.7.    SUCCESSOR AGENTS.

          (a)  RESIGNATION AND REMOVAL. Any Lead Arranger may resign from the
performance of all its functions and duties hereunder at any time by giving at
least thirty (30) Business Days' prior written notice to the Borrower and the
other Lenders, unless applicable law requires a shorter notice period or that
there be no notice period, in which instance such applicable law shall control.
Any Lead Arranger may be removed (i) at the direction of Lenders whose Pro Rata
Shares, in the aggregate, are greater than fifty percent (50%), in the event the
Lead Arranger is not also a Lender having a Revolving Credit Commitment of at
least $20,000,000 or six percent (6%) of the Revolving Credit Commitments at
such time or (ii) at the direction of the Requisite Lenders, in the event such
Lead Arranger shall commit gross negligence or willful misconduct in the
performance of its duties hereunder. Such resignation or removal shall take
effect upon the acceptance by a successor Lead Arranger of appointment pursuant
to this SECTION 12.7.

          (b)  APPOINTMENT BY REQUISITE LENDERS. Upon any such resignation or
removal becoming effective, (i) if an

                                       142
<Page>

Arranger or Co-Agent shall then be acting with respect to this Agreement, such
Arranger or Co-Agent shall become the Payment and Disbursement Agent or (ii) if
no Arranger or Co-Agent shall then be acting with respect to this Agreement, the
Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Payment and Disbursement
Agent selected from among the Lenders.

          (c)  APPOINTMENT BY RETIRING AGENT. If a successor Payment and
Disbursement Agent shall not have been appointed within the thirty (30) Business
Day or shorter period provided in PARAGRAPH (a) of this SECTION 12.7, the
retiring Agent shall then appoint a successor Agent who shall serve as Payment
and Disbursement Agent until such time, if any, as the Lenders appoint a
successor Agent as provided above.

          (d)  RIGHTS OF THE SUCCESSOR AND RETIRING AGENTS. Upon the acceptance
of any appointment as Payment and Disbursement Agent hereunder by a successor
Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with
all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the
retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this
Agreement. After any retiring Agent's resignation hereunder as Agent, the
provisions of this ARTICLE XII shall inure to its benefit as to any actions
taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Agent under this Agreement.

          XII.8.    RELATIONS AMONG THE LENDERS. Each Lender agrees that it will
not take any legal action, nor institute any actions or proceedings, against the
Borrower hereunder with respect to any of the Obligations, without the prior
written consent of the Lenders. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, no Lender may accelerate or otherwise enforce its portion of the
Obligations, or unilaterally terminate its Revolving Credit Commitment except in
accordance with SECTION 11.2(a).

                                       143

                                  ARTICLE XIII
                                YIELD PROTECTION

          XIII.1.   TAXES.

          (a)  PAYMENT OF TAXES. Any and all payments by the Borrower hereunder
or under any Note or other document evidencing any Obligations shall be made, in
accordance with SECTION 4.2, free and clear of and without reduction for any and
all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings,
and all stamp or documentary taxes, excise taxes, ad valorem taxes and other
taxes imposed on the value of the Property, charges or levies which arise from
the execution, delivery or registration, or from payment or performance under,
or otherwise with respect to, any of the Loan Documents or the Revolving Credit
Commitments and all other liabilities with respect thereto excluding, in the
case of each Lender, taxes imposed on or measured by net income or overall gross
receipts and capital and franchise taxes imposed on it by (i) the United States,
(ii) the Governmental Authority of the jurisdiction in which such Lender's
Applicable Lending Office is located or any political subdivision thereof or
(iii) the Governmental Authority in which such Person is organized, managed and
controlled or any political subdivision thereof (all such non-excluded taxes,
levies, imposts, deductions, charges and withholdings being hereinafter referred
to as "TAXES"). If the Borrower shall be required by law to withhold or deduct
any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under any such Note
or document to any Lender, (x) the sum payable to such Lender shall be increased
as may be necessary so that after making all required withholding or deductions
(including withholding or deductions applicable to additional sums payable under
this SECTION 13.1) such Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have
received had no such withholding or deductions been made, (y) the Borrower shall
make such withholding or deductions, and (z) the Borrower shall pay the full
amount withheld or deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other
authority in accordance with applicable law.

                                       144
<Page>

          (b)  INDEMNIFICATION. The Borrower will indemnify each Lender against,
and reimburse each Lender on demand for, the full amount of all Taxes
(including, without limitation, any Taxes imposed by any Governmental Authority
on amounts payable under this SECTION 13.1 and any additional income or
franchise taxes resulting therefrom) incurred or paid by such Lender or any of
its Affiliates and any liability (including penalties, interest, and
out-of-pocket expenses paid to third parties) arising therefrom or with respect
thereto, whether or not such Taxes were lawfully payable. A certificate as to
any additional amount payable to any Person under this SECTION 13.1 submitted by
it to the Borrower shall, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive and
binding upon all parties hereto. Each Lender agrees, within a reasonable time
after receiving a written request from the Borrower, to provide the Borrower and
the Payment and Disbursement Agent with such certificates as are reasonably
required, and take such other actions as are reasonably necessary to claim such
exemptions as such Lender may be entitled to claim in respect of all or a
portion of any Taxes which are otherwise required to be paid or deducted or
withheld pursuant to this SECTION 13.1 in respect of any payments under this
Agreement or under the Notes.

          (c)  RECEIPTS. Within thirty (30) days after the date of any payment
of Taxes by the Borrower, the Borrower will furnish to the Payment and
Disbursement Agent, at its address referred to in SECTION 15.8, the original or
a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof.

          (d)  FOREIGN BANK CERTIFICATIONS. (i) Each Lender that is not created
or organized under the laws of the United States or a political subdivision
thereof shall deliver to the Borrower and the Payment and Disbursement Agent on
the Closing Date or the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender pursuant to
SECTION 15.1 hereof a true and accurate certificate executed in duplicate by a
duly authorized officer of such Lender to the effect that such Lender is
eligible to receive payments hereunder and under the

                                       145
<Page>

Notes without deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax (I)
under the provisions of an applicable tax treaty concluded by the United States
(in which case the certificate shall be accompanied by two duly completed copies
of IRS Form 1001 (or any successor or substitute form or forms)) or (II) under
Sections 1442(c)(1) and 1442(a) of the Internal Revenue Code (in which case the
certificate shall be accompanied by two duly completed copies of IRS Form 4224
(or any successor or substitute form or forms)).

          (ii)      Each Lender further agrees to deliver to the Borrower and
the Payment and Disbursement Agent from time to time a true and accurate
certificate executed in duplicate by a duly authorized officer of such Lender
before or promptly upon the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the
most recent certificate previously delivered by it to the Borrower and the
Payment and Disbursement Agent pursuant to this SECTION 13.1(d). Each
certificate required to be delivered pursuant to this SECTION 13.1(d)(ii) shall
certify as to one of the following:

          (A)  that such Lender can continue to receive payments hereunder and
     under the Notes without deduction or withholding of United States federal
     income tax;

          (B)  that such Lender cannot continue to receive payments hereunder
     and under the Notes without deduction or withholding of United States
     federal income tax as specified therein but does not require additional
     payments pursuant to SECTION 13.1(a) because it is entitled to recover the
     full amount of any such deduction or withholding from a source other than
     the Borrower; or

          (C)  that such Lender is no longer capable of receiving payments
     hereunder and under the Notes without deduction or withholding of United

                                       146
<Page>

     States federal income tax as specified therein and that it is not capable
     of recovering the full amount of the same from a source other than the
     Borrower.

Each Lender agrees to deliver to the Borrower and the Payment and Disbursement
Agent further duly completed copies of the above-mentioned IRS forms on or
before the earlier of (x) the date that any such form expires or becomes
obsolete or otherwise is required to be resubmitted as a condition to obtaining
an exemption from withholding from United States federal income tax and (y)
fifteen (15) days after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the
most recent form previously delivered by such Lender to the Borrower and Payment
and Disbursement Agent, unless any change in treaty, law, regulation, or
official interpretation thereof which would render such form inapplicable or
which would prevent the Lender from duly completing and delivering such form has
occurred prior to the date on which any such delivery would otherwise be
required and the Lender promptly advises the Borrower that it is not capable of
receiving payments hereunder and under the Notes without any deduction or
withholding of United States federal income tax.

          XIII.2.   INCREASED CAPITAL. If after the date hereof any Lender
determines that (i) the adoption or implementation of or any change in or in the
interpretation or administration of any law or regulation or any guideline or
request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority or
quasi-governmental authority exercising jurisdiction, power or control over any
Lender or banks or financial institutions generally (whether or not having the
force of law), compliance with which affects or would affect the amount of
capital required or expected to be maintained by such Lender or any corporation
controlling such Lender and (ii) the amount of such capital is increased by or
based upon (A) the making or maintenance by any Lender of its Loans, any
Lender's participation in or obligation to participate in the Loans, Letters of
Credit or other advances made hereunder or the existence of any

                                       147
<Page>

Lender's obligation to make Loans or (B) the issuance or maintenance by any
Lender of, or the existence of any Lender's obligation to issue, Letters of
Credit, then, in any such case, upon written demand by such Lender (with a copy
of such demand to the Payment and Disbursement Agent), the Borrower shall
immediately pay to the Payment and Disbursement Agent for the account of such
Lender, from time to time as specified by such Lender, additional amounts
sufficient to compensate such Lender or such corporation therefor. Such demand
shall be accompanied by a statement as to the amount of such compensation and
include a brief summary of the basis for such demand. Such statement shall be
conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

          XIII.3.   CHANGES; LEGAL RESTRICTIONS. If after the date hereof any
Lender determines that the adoption or implementation of or any change in or in
the interpretation or administration of any law or regulation or any guideline
or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority or
quasi-governmental authority exercising jurisdiction, power or control over any
Lender, or over banks or financial institutions generally (whether or not having
the force of law), compliance with which:

          (a)  does or will subject a Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office
     or Eurodollar Affiliate) to charges (other than taxes) of any kind which
     such Lender reasonably determines to be applicable to the Revolving Credit
     Commitments of the Lenders to make Eurodollar Rate Loans or IBOR Rate Loans
     or issue and/or participate in Letters of Credit or change the basis of
     taxation of payments to that Lender of principal, fees, interest, or any
     other amount payable hereunder with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans, IBOR
     Rate Loans, Letters of Credit or Money Market Loans; or

          (b)  does or will impose, modify, or hold applicable, in the
     determination of a Lender, any

                                       148
<Page>

     reserve (other than reserves taken into account in calculating the
     Eurodollar Rate), special deposit, compulsory loan, FDIC insurance or
     similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits or other
     liabilities (including those pertaining to Letters of Credit) in or for the
     account of, advances or loans by, commitments made, or other credit
     extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, a Lender or any
     Applicable Lending Office or Eurodollar Affiliate of that Lender;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to that Lender of
making, renewing or maintaining the Loans or its Revolving Credit Commitment or
issuing or participating in the Letters of Credit or to reduce any amount
receivable thereunder; then, in any such case, upon written demand by such
Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Payment and Disbursement Agent), the
Borrower shall immediately pay to the Payment and Disbursement Agent for the
account of such Lender, from time to time as specified by such Lender, such
amount or amounts as may be necessary to compensate such Lender or its
Eurodollar Affiliate for any such additional cost incurred or reduced amount
received. Such demand shall be accompanied by a statement as to the amount of
such compensation and include a brief summary of the basis for such demand. Such
statement shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest
error.

          XIII.4.   REPLACEMENT OF CERTAIN LENDERS. In the event a Lender (a
"DESIGNEE LENDER") shall have requested additional compensation from the
Borrower under SECTION 13.2 or under SECTION 13.3, the Borrower may, at its sole
election, (a) make written demand on such Designee Lender (with a copy to the
Payment and Disbursement Agent) for the Designee Lender to assign, and such
Designee Lender shall assign pursuant to one or more duly executed Assignment
and Acceptances to one or more Eligible Assignees which the Borrower or the
Payment and Disbursement Agent shall have identified for such purpose, all of
such Designee Lender's

                                       149
<Page>

right and obligations under this Agreement and the Notes (including, without
limitation, its Revolving Credit Commitment, all Loans owing to it, and all of
its participation interests in Letters of Credit) in accordance with SECTION
15.1 or (b) repay all Loans owing to the Designee Lender together with interest
accrued with respect thereto to the date of such repayment and all fees and
other charges accrued or payable under the terms of this Agreement for the
benefit of the Designee Lender to the date of such repayment and remit to the
Payment and Disbursement Agent to be held as cash collateral an amount equal to
the participation interest of the Designee Lender in Letters of Credit. Any such
repayment and remittance shall be for the sole credit of the Designee Lender and
not for any other Lender. Upon delivery of such repayment and remittance in
immediately available funds as aforesaid, the Designee Lender shall cease to be
a Lender under this Agreement. All expenses incurred by the Payment and
Disbursement Agent in connection with the foregoing shall be for the sole
account of the Borrower and shall constitute Obligations hereunder. In no event
shall Borrower's election under the provisions of this SECTION 13.4 affect its
obligation to pay the additional compensation required under either SECTION 13.2
or SECTION 13.3.

                                   ARTICLE XIV

                                   ARTICLE XV
                                  MISCELLANEOUS

          XV.1.     ASSIGNMENTS AND PARTICIPATIONS.

          (a)  ASSIGNMENTS. No assignments or participations of any Lender's
rights or obligations under this Agreement shall be made except in accordance
with this SECTION 15.1. Each Lender may assign to one or more Eligible Assignees
all or a portion of its rights and

                                       150
<Page>

obligations under this Agreement (including all of its rights and obligations
with respect to the Loans and the Letters of Credit) in accordance with the
provisions of this SECTION 15.1.

          (b)  LIMITATIONS ON ASSIGNMENTS. For so long as no Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing, each assignment shall be subject to the
following conditions: (i) each assignment shall be of a constant, and not a
varying, ratable percentage of all of the assigning Lender's rights and
obligations under this Agreement and, in the case of a partial assignment, shall
be in a minimum principal amount of $15,000,000, (ii) each such assignment shall
be to an Eligible Assignee, (iii) the parties to each such assignment shall
execute and deliver to the Payment and Disbursement Agent, for its acceptance
(in accordance with Section 15.1(d)) and recording in the Register, an
Assignment and Acceptance, (iv) each Arranger shall maintain a minimum Revolving
Credit Commitment in an amount greater than the Revolving Credit Commitment of
any other Lender (other than the other Arrangers) or an amount sufficient to
maintain such Arranger's Pro Rata Share as of the Closing Date, whichever is
less, and (v) each Co-Agent shall maintain a minimum Revolving Credit Commitment
in an amount greater than the Revolving Credit Commitment of any other Lender
(other than the other Co-Agents and the Arrangers) or an amount sufficient to
maintain such Co-Agent's Pro Rata Share as of the Closing Date, whichever is
less. Upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, none of the
foregoing restrictions on assignments shall apply. Upon such execution,
delivery, acceptance (in accordance with Section 15.1(d)) and recording in the
Register, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and
Acceptance and agreed to by the Payment and Disbursement Agent, (A) the assignee
thereunder shall, in addition to any rights and obligations hereunder held by it
immediately prior to such effective date, if any, have the rights and
obligations hereunder that have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment
and Acceptance and shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, have the same
rights and benefits hereunder as if it were an

                                       151
<Page>

original Lender hereunder, (B) the assigning Lender shall, to the extent that
rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such
Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights and be released from its
obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and
Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of such assigning Lender's
rights and obligations under this Agreement, the assigning Lender shall cease to
be a party hereto) and (C) the Borrower shall execute and deliver to the
assignee thereunder a Note evidencing its obligations to such assignee with
respect to the Loans.

          (c)  THE REGISTER. The Payment and Disbursement Agent shall maintain
at its address referred to in SECTION 15.8 a copy of each Assignment and
Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it and a register (the "REGISTER") for
the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, the Revolving Credit
Commitment of, and the principal amount of the Loans under the Revolving Credit
Commitments owing to, each Lender from time to time and whether such Lender is
an original Lender or the assignee of another Lender pursuant to an Assignment
and Acceptance. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for
all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrower and each of its
Subsidiaries, the Payment and Disbursement Agent and the other Lenders may treat
each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all
purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by
the Borrower or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon
reasonable prior notice.

          (d)  FEE. Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by
the assigning Lender and an Eligible Assignee and a processing and recordation
fee of $3,500 (payable by the assignee to the Payment and Disbursement Agent),
the Payment and Disbursement Agent shall, if such Assignment and Acceptance has
been completed and is in compliance with this Agreement and in substantially the
form of EXHIBIT A hereto, (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance, (ii) record
the information contained therein

                                       152
<Page>

in the Register and (iii) give prompt notice thereof to the Borrower and the
other Lenders.

          (e)  PARTICIPATIONS. Each Lender may sell participations to one or
more other entities in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations
under and in respect of any and all facilities under this Agreement (including,
without limitation, all or a portion of any or all of its Revolving Credit
Commitment hereunder and the Committed Loans owing to it and its undivided
interest in the Letters of Credit); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that (i) such Lender's
obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, its Revolving
Credit Commitment hereunder) shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall
remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of
such obligations, (iii) the Borrower, the Payment and Disbursement 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, (iv)
each participation shall be in a minimum amount of $10,000,000, and (v) such
participant's rights to agree or to restrict such Lender's ability to agree to
the modification, waiver or release of any of the terms of the Loan Documents,
to consent to any action or failure to act by any party to any of the Loan
Documents or any of their respective Affiliates, or to exercise or refrain from
exercising any powers or rights which any Lender may have under or in respect of
the Loan Documents, shall be limited to the right to consent to (A) increase in
the Revolving Credit Commitment of the Lender from whom such participant
purchased a participation, (B) reduction of the principal of, or rate or amount
of interest on the Loans subject to such participation (other than by the
payment or prepayment thereof), (C) postponement of any date fixed for any
payment of principal of, or interest on, the Loan(s) subject to such
participation and (D) release of any guarantor of the Obligations.
Participations by a Person in a Money Market Loan of any Lender shall not be
deemed "participations" for purposes of this SECTION 15.1(e) and shall not be
subject to the restrictions on "participations" contained herein.

                                       153
<Page>

          (f)  Any Lender (each, a "DESIGNATING LENDER") may at any time
designate one Designated Bank to fund Money Market Loans on behalf of such
Designating Lender subject to the terms of this SECTION 15.1(f) and the
provisions in SECTION 15.1 (b) AND (e) shall not apply to such designation. No
Lender may designate more than one (1) Designated Bank. The parties to each such
designation shall execute and deliver to the Payment and Disbursement Agent for
its acceptance a Designation Agreement. Upon such receipt of an appropriately
completed Designation Agreement executed by a Designating Lender and a designee
representing that it is a Designated Bank, the Payment and Disbursement Agent
will accept such Designation Agreement and will give prompt notice thereof to
the Borrower, whereupon, (i) the Borrower shall execute and deliver to the
Designating Bank a Designated Bank Note payable to the order of the Designated
Bank, (ii) from and after the effective date specified in the Designation
Agreement, the Designated Bank shall become a party to this Agreement with a
right to make Money Market Loans on behalf of its Designating Lender pursuant to
Section 2.2 after the Borrower has accepted a Money Market Loan (or portion
thereof) of the Designating Lender, and (iii) the Designated Bank shall not be
required to make payments with respect to any obligations in this Agreement
except to the extent of excess cash flow of such Designated Bank which is not
otherwise required to repay obligations of such Designated Bank which are then
due and payable; provided, however, that regardless of such designation and
assumption by the Designated Bank, the Designating Lender shall be and remain
obligated to the Borrower, the Payment and Disbursement Agent, the Arrangers,
the Co-Agents and the other Lenders for each and every of the obligations of the
Designating Lender and its related Designated Bank with respect to this
Agreement, including, without limitation, any indemnification obligations under
SECTION 12.5 hereof and any sums otherwise payable to the Borrower by the
Designated Bank. Each Designating Lender shall serve as the administrative agent
of the Designated Bank and shall on behalf of, and to the exclusion of, the
Designated Bank: (i) receive any and all payments made for the benefit of

                                       154
<Page>

the Designated Bank and (ii) give and receive all communications and notices and
take all actions hereunder, including, without limitation, votes, approvals,
waivers, consents and amendments under or relating to this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents. Any such notice, communication, vote, approval, waiver,
consent or amendment shall be signed by the Designating Lender as administrative
agent for the Designated Bank and shall not be signed by the Designated Bank on
its own behalf but shall be binding on the Designated Bank to the same extent as
if actually signed by the Designated Bank. The Borrower, the Payment and
Disbursement Agent, the Arrangers, Co-Agents and Lenders may rely thereon
without any requirement that the Designated Bank sign or acknowledge the same.
No Designated Bank may assign or transfer all or any portion of its interest
hereunder or under any other Loan Document, other than assignments to the
Designating Lender which originally designated such Designated Bank or otherwise
in accordance with the provisions of SECTION 15.1 (b) AND (e).

          (g)  INFORMATION REGARDING THE BORROWER. Any Lender may, in connection
with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation
pursuant to this SECTION 15.1, disclose to the assignee or participant or
proposed assignee or participant, any information relating to the Borrower or
its Subsidiaries furnished to such Lender by the Payment and Disbursement Agent
or by or on behalf of the Borrower; PROVIDED that, prior to any such disclosure,
such assignee or participant, or proposed assignee or participant, shall agree,
in writing, to preserve in accordance with SECTION 15.20 the confidentiality of
any confidential information described therein.

          (h)  SPC ASSIGNMENT. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, any Lender (a "GRANTING LENDER") may grant to a special
purpose funding vehicle (a "SPC"), identified in writing from time to time by
the Granting Lender to the Payment and Disbursement Agent, the option to
purchase from the Granting Lender all or any part of any Loan that such Granting
Lender would otherwise be obligated to make as provided herein, PROVIDED that
(i)

                                       155
<Page>

nothing herein shall constitute a commitment to purchase any Loan by any SPC,
and (ii) if a SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to fund
all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to fund
such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. The funding of a Loan by a SPC hereunder
shall utilize the Revolving Credit Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same
extent, and as if, such Loan were funded by such Granting Lender. Each party
hereby agrees that no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or payment under
this Agreement for which a Lender would otherwise be liable, for so long as, and
to the extent, the Granting Lender provides such indemnity or makes such
payment. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees that,
prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all
outstanding Loans 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. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this Agreement, the Granting Lender may disclose to a SPC and any
SPC may disclose to any Rating Agency or provider of any surety or guarantee to
such SPC any information relating to the SPC's funding of Loans, all on a
confidential basis. This clause (h) may not be amended without the prior written
consent of each Granting Lender, all or any part of whose Loans are being funded
by a SPC at the time of such amendment.

          (i)  PAYMENT TO PARTICIPANTS. Anything in this Agreement to the
contrary notwithstanding, in the case of any participation, all amounts payable
by the Borrower under the Loan Documents shall be calculated and made in the
manner and to the parties required hereby as if no such participation had been
sold.

          (j)  LENDERS' CREATION OF SECURITY INTERESTS. Notwithstanding any
other provision set forth in this Agreement, any Lender may at any time create a
security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this

                                       156
<Page>

Agreement (including, without limitation, Obligations owing to it and any Note
held by it) in favor of any Federal Reserve bank in accordance with Regulation A
of the Federal Reserve Board.

          XV.2.     EXPENSES.

          (a)  GENERALLY. The Borrower agrees upon demand to pay or reimburse
the Payment and Disbursement Agent and each Arranger for all of their respective
reasonable external audit and investigation expenses, and for the fees, expenses
and disbursements of Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP (but not of other
legal counsel) and for all other out-of-pocket costs and expenses of every type
and nature incurred by the Payment and Disbursement Agent or each Arranger in
connection with (i) the audit and investigation of the Consolidated Businesses,
the Projects and other Properties of the Consolidated Businesses in connection
with the preparation, negotiation, and execution of the Loan Documents; (ii) the
preparation, negotiation, execution and interpretation of this Agreement
(including, without limitation, the satisfaction or attempted satisfaction of
any of the conditions set forth in ARTICLE VI), the Loan Documents, and the
making of the Loans hereunder; (iii) the ongoing administration of this
Agreement and the Loans, including consultation with attorneys in connection
therewith and with respect to the Payment and Disbursement Agent's rights and
responsibilities under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; (iv) the
protection, collection or enforcement of any of the Obligations or the
enforcement of any of the Loan Documents; (v) the commencement, defense or
intervention in any court proceeding relating in any way to the Obligations, any
Project, the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries, this Agreement or any of the
other Loan Documents; (vi) the response to, and preparation for, any subpoena or
request for document production with which the Payment and Disbursement Agent or
any other Agents or any other Lender is served or deposition or other proceeding
in which any Lender is called to testify, in each case, relating in any way to
the Obligations, a Project, the Borrower,

                                       157
<Page>

any of the Consolidated Businesses, this Agreement or any of the other Loan
Documents; and (vii) any amendments, consents, waivers, assignments,
restatements, or supplements to any of the Loan Documents and the preparation,
negotiation, and execution of the same.

          (b)  AFTER DEFAULT. The Borrower further agrees to pay or reimburse
the Payment and Disbursement Agent, the Arrangers, the Co-Agents and each of the
Lenders upon demand for all out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including, without
limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees (including allocated costs of internal
counsel and costs of settlement) incurred by such entity after the occurrence of
an Event of Default (i) in enforcing any Loan Document or Obligation or any
security therefor or exercising or enforcing any other right or remedy available
by reason of such Event of Default; (ii) in connection with any refinancing or
restructuring of the credit arrangements provided under this Agreement in the
nature of a "work-out" or in any insolvency or bankruptcy proceeding; (iii) in
commencing, defending or intervening in any litigation or in filing a petition,
complaint, answer, motion or other pleadings in any legal proceeding relating to
the Obligations, a Project, any of the Consolidated Businesses and related to or
arising out of the transactions contemplated hereby or by any of the other Loan
Documents; and (iv) in taking any other action in or with respect to any suit or
proceeding (bankruptcy or otherwise) described in clauses (i) through (iii)
above.

          XV.3.     INDEMNITY. The Borrower further agrees (a) to defend,
protect, indemnify, and hold harmless the Payment and Disbursement Agent, the
Arrangers, the Co-Agents and each and all of the other Lenders and each of their
respective officers, directors, employees, affiliates, attorneys and agents
(including, without limitation, those retained in connection with the
satisfaction or attempted satisfaction of any of the conditions set forth in
ARTICLE VI) (collectively, the "INDEMNITEES") from and against any and all
liabilities, obligations, losses (other than loss of profits), damages,

                                       158
<Page>

penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs, reasonable expenses and
disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (excluding any taxes and
including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel
for such Indemnitees in connection with any investigative, administrative or
judicial proceeding, whether or not such Indemnitees shall be designated a party
thereto), imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against such Indemnitees in any
manner relating to or arising out of (i) this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents, or any act, event or transaction related or attendant thereto, the
making of the Loans and the issuance of and participation in Letters of Credit
hereunder, the management of such Loans or Letters of Credit, the use or
intended use of the proceeds of the Loans or Letters of Credit hereunder, or any
of the other transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents, or (ii) any
Liabilities and Costs relating to violation of any Environmental, Health or
Safety Requirements of Law, the past, present or future operations of the
Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective predecessors in
interest, or, the past, present or future environmental, health or safety
condition of any respective Property of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries,
the presence of asbestos-containing materials at any respective Property of the
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or the Release or threatened Release of any
Contaminant into the environment (collectively, the "INDEMNIFIED MATTERS");
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, the Borrower shall have no obligation to an Indemnitee
hereunder with respect to Indemnified Matters caused by or resulting from the
willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Indemnitee, as determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction in a non-appealable final judgment; and (b) not
to assert any claim against any of the Indemnitees, on any theory of liability,
for consequential or punitive damages arising out of, or in any way in
connection with, the Revolving Credit Commitments, the Revolving Credit
Obligations, or the other matters governed by this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents. To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, pay and hold
harmless set forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable

                                       159
<Page>

because it is violative of any law or public policy, the Borrower shall
contribute the maximum portion which it is permitted to pay and satisfy under
applicable law, to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Matters
incurred by the Indemnitees.

          XV.4.     CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES. If any change in the
accounting principles used in the preparation of the most recent financial
statements referred to in SECTIONS 8.1 or 8.2 are hereafter required or
permitted by the rules, regulations, pronouncements and opinions of the
Financial Accounting Standards Board or the American Institute of Certified
Public Accountants (or successors thereto or agencies with similar functions)
and are adopted by any General Partner or the Borrower, as applicable, with the
agreement of its independent certified public accountants and such changes
result in a change in the method of calculation of any of the covenants,
standards or terms found in ARTICLE X, the parties hereto agree to enter into
negotiations in order to amend such provisions so as to equitably reflect such
changes with the desired result that the criteria for evaluating compliance with
such covenants, standards and terms by the Borrower shall be the same after such
changes as if such changes had not been made; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, no change in
GAAP that would affect the method of calculation of any of the covenants,
standards or terms shall be given effect in such calculations until such
provisions are amended, in a manner satisfactory to the Payment and Disbursement
Agent and the Borrower, to so reflect such change in accounting principles.

          XV.5.     SETOFF. In addition to any Liens granted under the Loan
Documents and any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law, upon the
occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Lender and
any Affiliate of any Lender is hereby authorized by the Borrower at any time or
from time to time, without notice to any Person (any such notice being hereby
expressly waived) to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all
deposits (general or special, including, but not limited to, indebtedness
evidenced by certificates of

                                       160
<Page>

deposit, whether matured or unmatured (but not including trust accounts)) and
any other Indebtedness at any time held or owing by such Lender or any of its
Affiliates to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against and on
account of the Obligations of the Borrower to such Lender or any of its
Affiliates, including, but not limited to, all Loans and Letters of Credit and
all claims of any nature or description arising out of or in connection with
this Agreement, irrespective of whether or not (i) such Lender shall have made
any demand hereunder or (ii) the Payment and Disbursement Agent, at the request
or with the consent of the Requisite Lenders, shall have declared the principal
of and interest on the Loans and other amounts due hereunder to be due and
payable as permitted by ARTICLE XI and even though such Obligations may be
contingent or unmatured. Each Lender agrees that it shall not, without the
express consent of the Requisite Lenders, and that it shall, to the extent it is
lawfully entitled to do so, upon the request of the Requisite Lenders, exercise
its setoff rights hereunder against any accounts of the Borrower now or
hereafter maintained with such Lender or any Affiliate.

          XV.6.     RATABLE SHARING. The Lenders agree among themselves that (i)
with respect to all amounts received by them which are applicable to the payment
of the Obligations (excluding the repayment of Money Market Loans to a
particular Money Market Lender and the fees described in SECTIONS 3.1(g),
5.2(f), and 5.3 and ARTICLE XIII) equitable adjustment will be made so that, in
effect, all such amounts will be shared among them ratably in accordance with
their Pro Rata Shares, whether received by voluntary payment, by the exercise of
the right of setoff or banker's lien, by counterclaim or cross-action or by the
enforcement of any or all of the Obligations (excluding the repayment of Money
Market Loans to a particular Money Market Lender and the fees described in
SECTIONS 3.1(g), 5.2(f), and 5.3 and ARTICLE XIII), (ii) if any of them shall by
voluntary payment or by the exercise of any right of counterclaim, setoff,
banker's lien or otherwise, receive payment of a proportion of the aggregate
amount of the Obligations held by it, which is greater than the

                                       161
<Page>

amount which such Lender is entitled to receive hereunder, the Lender receiving
such excess payment shall purchase, without recourse or warranty, an undivided
interest and participation (which it shall be deemed to have done simultaneously
upon the receipt of such payment) in such Obligations owed to the others so that
all such recoveries with respect to such Obligations shall be applied ratably in
accordance with their Pro Rata Shares; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if all or part of
such excess payment received by the purchasing party is thereafter recovered
from it, those purchases shall be rescinded and the purchase prices paid for
such participations shall be returned to such party to the extent necessary to
adjust for such recovery, but without interest except to the extent the
purchasing party is required to pay interest in connection with such recovery.
The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another
Lender pursuant to this SECTION 15.6 may, to the fullest extent permitted by
law, exercise all its rights of payment (including, subject to SECTION 15.5, the
right of setoff) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender
were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

          XV.7.     AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS.

          (a)  GENERAL PROVISIONS. Unless otherwise provided for or required in
this Agreement, no amendment or modification of any provision of this Agreement
or any of the other Loan Documents shall be effective without the written
agreement of the Requisite Lenders (which the Requisite Lenders shall have the
right to grant or withhold in their sole discretion) and the Borrower; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that the Borrower's agreement shall not be required for any amendment
or modification of SECTIONS 12.1 through 12.8. No termination or waiver of any
provision of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or consent to
any departure by the Borrower therefrom, shall be effective without the written
concurrence of the Requisite Lenders, which the Requisite Lenders shall have the
right to grant or withhold in their sole discretion.

                                       162
<Page>

All amendments, waivers and consents not specifically reserved to the Payment
and Disbursement Agent, the Arrangers, the other Co-Agents or the other Lenders
in SECTION 15.7(b), 15.7(c), and in other provisions of this Agreement shall
require only the approval of the Requisite Lenders. Any waiver or consent shall
be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for
which it was given. No notice to or demand on the Borrower in any case shall
entitle the Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or
other circumstances. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amendment, waiver or
consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Designating Lender on behalf
of its Designated Bank affected thereby, (a) subject such Designated Bank to any
additional obligations, (b) reduce the principal of, interest on, or other
amounts due with respect to, the Designated Bank Note made payable to such
Designated Bank, or (c) postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of,
or interest on, or other amounts due with respect to the Designated Bank Note
made payable to the Designated Bank.

          (b)  AMENDMENTS, CONSENTS AND WAIVERS BY AFFECTED LENDERS. Any
amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent with respect to any of
the following provisions of this Agreement shall be effective only by a written
agreement, signed by each Lender affected thereby as described below:

     (i)  waiver of any of the conditions specified in SECTIONS 6.1 and 6.2
     (except with respect to a condition based upon another provision of this
     Agreement, the waiver of which requires only the concurrence of the
     Requisite Lenders),

     (ii) increase in the amount of such Lender's Revolving Credit Commitment,

     (iii) reduction of the principal of, rate or amount of interest on the
     Loans, the Reimbursement Obligations,

                                       163
<Page>

     or any fees or other amounts payable to such Lender (other than by the
     payment or prepayment thereof), and

     (iv) postponement or extension of any date (other than the Revolving Credit
     Termination Date postponement or extension of which is governed by SECTION
     15.7(c)(i)) fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, the
     Loans, the Reimbursement Obligations or any fees or other amounts payable
     to such Lender (except with respect to any modifications of the application
     provisions relating to prepayments of Loans and other Obligations which are
     governed by SECTION 4.2(b)).

          (c)  AMENDMENTS, CONSENTS AND WAIVERS BY ALL LENDERS. Any amendment,
modification, termination, waiver or consent with respect to any of the
following provisions of this Agreement shall be effective only by a written
agreement, signed by each Lender:

     (i) postponement of the Revolving Credit Termination Date, or increase in
     the Maximum Revolving Credit Amount to any amount in excess of
     $1,250,000,000,

     (ii) change in the definition of Requisite Lenders or in the aggregate Pro
     Rata Share of the Lenders which shall be required for the Lenders or any of
     them to take action hereunder or under the other Loan Documents,

     (iii) amendment of SECTION 15.6 or this SECTION 15.7,

     (iv) assignment of any right or interest in or under this Agreement or any
     of the other Loan Documents by the Borrower, and

     (v) waiver of any Event of Default described in SECTIONS 11.1(a), (f), (g),
     (i), (n), and (o).

     (d)  PAYMENT AND DISBURSEMENT AGENT AUTHORITY. The Payment and Disbursement
Agent may, but shall have no obligation to, with the written concurrence of any
Lender, execute amendments, modifications, waivers or consents on

                                       164
<Page>

behalf of that Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
this SECTION 15.7, no amendment, modification, waiver or consent shall affect
the rights or duties of the Payment and Disbursement Agent under this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents, unless made in writing and signed by the Payment
and Disbursement Agent in addition to the Lenders required above to take such
action. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event that the
Borrower shall have requested, in writing, that any Lender agree to an
amendment, modification, waiver or consent with respect to any particular
provision or provisions of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, and such
Lender shall have failed to state, in writing, that it either agrees or
disagrees (in full or in part) with all such requests (in the case of its
statement of agreement, subject to satisfactory documentation and such other
conditions it may specify) within thirty (30) days after such Lender receives
such request, then such Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes the Payment and
Disbursement Agent to agree or disagree, in full or in part, and in the Payment
and Disbursement Agent's sole discretion, to such requests on behalf of such
Lender as such Lenders' attorney-in-fact and to execute and deliver any writing
approved by the Payment and Disbursement Agent which evidences such agreement as
such Lender's duly authorized agent for such purposes.

          XV.8.     NOTICES. Unless otherwise specifically provided herein, any
notice or other communication herein required or permitted to be given shall be
in writing and may be personally served, sent by facsimile transmission or by
courier service and shall be deemed to have been given when delivered in person
or by courier service, or upon receipt of a facsimile transmission. Notices to
the Payment and Disbursement Agent pursuant to ARTICLES II, IV or XII shall not
be effective until received by the Payment and Disbursement Agent. For the
purposes hereof, the addresses of the parties hereto (until notice of a change
thereof is delivered as provided in this SECTION 15.8) shall be as set forth
below each party's name on the signature pages hereof or the signature page of
any

                                       165
<Page>

applicable Assignment and Acceptance, or, as to each party, at such other
address as may be designated by such party in a written notice to all of the
other parties to this Agreement.

          XV.9.     SURVIVAL OF WARRANTIES AND AGREEMENTS. All representations
and warranties made herein and all obligations of the Borrower in respect of
taxes, indemnification and expense reimbursement shall survive the execution and
delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the making and
repayment of the Loans, the issuance and discharge of Letters of Credit
hereunder and the termination of this Agreement and shall not be limited in any
way by the passage of time or occurrence of any event and shall expressly cover
time periods when the Payment and Disbursement Agent, any of the other Agents or
any of the other Lenders may have come into possession or control of any
Property of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries.

          XV.10.    FAILURE OR INDULGENCE NOT WAIVER; REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. No
failure or delay on the part of the Payment and Disbursement Agent, any other
Lender or any other Agent in the exercise of any power, right or privilege under
any of the Loan Documents shall impair such power, right or privilege or be
construed to be a waiver of any default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any
single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other
or further exercise thereof or of any other right, power or privilege. All
rights and remedies existing under the Loan Documents are cumulative to and not
exclusive of any rights or remedies otherwise available.

          XV.11.    MARSHALLING; PAYMENTS SET ASIDE. None of the Payment and
Disbursement Agent, any other Lender or any other Co-Agent shall be under any
obligation to marshall any assets in favor of the Borrower or any other party or
against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. To the extent that the
Borrower makes a payment or payments to the Payment and Disbursement Agent, any
Agent or any other Lender or any such Person exercises its rights of setoff,

                                       166
<Page>

and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or setoff or
any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or
preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any
other party, then to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof
originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, right and remedies therefor,
shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had
not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

          XV.12.    SEVERABILITY. In case any provision in or obligation under
this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be invalid, illegal or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of
the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in
any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

          XV.13.    HEADINGS. Section headings in this Agreement are included
herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this
Agreement or be given any substantive effect.

          XV.14.    GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE INTERPRETED, AND THE
RIGHTS AND LIABILITIES OF THE PARTIES HERETO DETERMINED, IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE
INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO ITS CONFLICT OF LAWS
PRINCIPLES.

          XV.15.    LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. No claim may be made by any Lender,
any Co-Agent, any Arranger, the Payment and Disbursement Agent, or any other
Person against any Lender (acting in any capacity hereunder) or the Affiliates,
directors, officers, employees, attorneys or agents of any of them for any
consequential or punitive damages in respect of any claim for breach of contract
or any other theory of liability arising out of or related to the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement, or any act, omission or event occurring in
connection therewith; and each Lender, each Co-Agent, each Arranger and the

                                       167

upon any such claim for any such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or
not known or suspected to exist in its favor.

          XV.16.    SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. This Agreement and the other Loan
Documents shall be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective
successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and
the successors and permitted assigns of the Lenders. The rights hereunder of the
Borrower, or any interest therein, may not be assigned without the prior written
consent of all Lenders.

YORK, NEW YORK 10019, AS ITS AGENT (THE "PROCESS AGENT") FOR SERVICE OF ALL
PROCESS IN ANY SUCH PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT, SUCH SERVICE BEING HEREBY
ACKNOWLEDGED TO BE EFFECTIVE AND BINDING SERVICE IN EVERY RESPECT. EACH OF THE
LENDERS AND THE BORROWER AGREES THAT A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR
PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY
SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER

                                       168
<Page>

MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW. THE BORROWER WAIVES IN ALL DISPUTES ANY OBJECTION THAT
IT MAY HAVE TO THE LOCATION OF THE COURT CONSIDERING THE DISPUTE.

          (ii)      THE BORROWER AGREES THAT THE PAYMENT AND DISBURSEMENT AGENT
SHALL HAVE THE RIGHT TO PROCEED AGAINST THE BORROWER OR ITS PROPERTY IN A COURT
IN ANY LOCATION NECESSARY OR APPROPRIATE TO ENABLE THE PAYMENT AND DISBURSEMENT

IN FAVOR OF THE PAYMENT AND DISBURSEMENT AGENT OR ANY OTHER LENDER. THE BORROWER
AGREES THAT IT WILL NOT ASSERT ANY PERMISSIVE COUNTERCLAIMS IN ANY PROCEEDING
BROUGHT BY THE PAYMENT AND DISBURSEMENT AGENT, ANY LENDER OR ANY OTHER AGENT TO
ENFORCE A JUDGMENT OR OTHER COURT ORDER IN FAVOR OF THE PAYMENT AND DISBURSEMENT
AGENT, ANY LENDER OR ANY SUCH OTHER AGENT. THE BORROWER WAIVES ANY OBJECTION
THAT IT MAY HAVE TO THE LOCATION OF THE COURT IN WHICH THE PAYMENT AND
DISBURSEMENT AGENT, ANY OTHER AGENT OR ANY LENDER MAY COMMENCE A PROCEEDING
DESCRIBED IN THIS SECTION.

          (b)  SERVICE OF PROCESS. THE BORROWER IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO THE
SERVICE OF PROCESS OF ANY OF THE AFOREMENTIONED COURTS IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR
PROCEEDING BY THE MAILING OF COPIES THEREOF BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL,
POSTAGE PREPAID, TO THE PROCESS AGENT OR THE BORROWER'S NOTICE ADDRESS SPECIFIED

WAIVES ANY OBJECTION (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY OBJECTION OF THE LAYING
OF VENUE OR BASED ON THE GROUNDS OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS) WHICH IT MAY NOW OR
HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE BRINGING OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO
THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT IN ANY JURISDICTION SET FORTH ABOVE.
NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER
PERMITTED BY LAW OR SHALL LIMIT THE RIGHT OF THE PAYMENT AND DISBURSEMENT AGENT
OR THE OTHER LENDERS TO BRING PROCEEDINGS AGAINST THE BORROWER IN THE COURTS OF
ANY OTHER JURISDICTION.

                                       169
<Page>

          (C)  WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PAYMENT AND DISBURSEMENT AGENT
AND THE OTHER LENDERS AND THE BORROWER IRREVOCABLY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY
ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT.

          XV.18.    COUNTERPARTS; EFFECTIVENESS; INCONSISTENCIES. This Agreement
and any amendments, waivers, consents, or supplements hereto may be executed in
counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an
original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one and the
same instrument. This Agreement shall become effective against the Borrower and
each Lender on the Closing Date. This Agreement and each of the other Loan
Documents shall be construed to the extent reasonable to be consistent one with
the other, but to the extent that the terms and conditions of this Agreement are
actually inconsistent with the terms and conditions of any other Loan Document,
this Agreement shall govern. In the event the Lenders enter into any co-lender
agreement with the Arrangers pertaining to the Lenders' respective rights with
respect to voting on any matter referenced in this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents on which the Lenders have a right to vote under the terms of this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents, such co-lender agreement shall be
construed to the extent reasonable to be consistent with this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents, but to the extent that the terms and conditions of such
co-lender agreement are actually inconsistent with the terms and conditions of
this Agreement and/or the other Loan Documents, such co-lender agreement shall
govern. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any rights reserved to the Payment and
Disbursement Agent or the Arrangers or the Co-Agents under this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents shall not be varied or in any way affected by such
co-lender agreement and the rights and obligation of the Borrower under the Loan
Documents will not be varied.

          XV.19.    LIMITATION ON AGREEMENTS. All agreements between the
Borrower, the Payment and Disbursement Agent, each Arranger, each Co-Agent and
each Lender in the Loan

                                       170
<Page>

Documents are hereby expressly limited so that in no event shall any of the
Loans or other amounts payable by the Borrower under any of the Loan Documents
be directly or indirectly secured (within the meaning of Regulation U) by Margin
Stock.

          XV.20.    CONFIDENTIALITY. Subject to SECTION 15.1(g), the Lenders
shall hold all nonpublic information obtained pursuant to the requirements of
this Agreement, and identified as such by the Borrower, in accordance with such
Lender's customary procedures for handling confidential information of this
nature and in accordance with safe and sound banking practices (provided that
such Lender may share such information with its Affiliates in accordance with
such Lender's customary procedures for handling confidential information of this
nature and provided further that such Affiliate shall hold such information
confidential) and in any event the Lenders may make disclosure reasonably
required by a bona fide offeree, transferee or participant in connection with
the contemplated transfer or participation or as required or requested by any
Governmental Authority or representative thereof or pursuant to legal process
and shall require any such offeree, transferee or participant to agree (and
require any of its offerees, transferees or participants to agree) to comply
with this SECTION 15.20. In no event shall any Lender be obligated or required
to return any materials furnished by the Borrower; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, each
offeree shall be required to agree that if it does not become a transferee or
participant it shall return all materials furnished to it by the Borrower in
connection with this Agreement. Any and all confidentiality agreements entered
into between any Lender and the Borrower shall survive the execution of this
Agreement.

          XV.21.    DISCLAIMERS. The Payment and Disbursement Agent, the
Arrangers, the other Co-Agents and the other Lenders shall not be liable to any
contractor, subcontractor, supplier, laborer, architect, engineer, tenant or
other party for services performed or materials supplied in connection with any
work performed on the

                                       171
<Page>

Projects, including any TI Work. The Payment and Disbursement Agent, the
Arrangers, the other Co-Agents and the other Lenders shall not be liable for any
debts or claims accruing in favor of any such parties against the Borrower or
others or against any of the Projects. The Borrower is not and shall not be an
agent of any of the Payment and Disbursement Agent, the Arrangers, the other
Co-Agents or the other Lenders for any purposes and none of the Lenders, the
Co-Agents, the Arrangers, or the Payment and Disbursement Agent shall be deemed
partners or joint venturers with Borrower or any of its Affiliates. None of the
Payment and Disbursement Agent, the Arrangers, the other Co-Agents or the other
Lenders shall be deemed to be in privity of contract with any contractor or
provider of services to any Project, nor shall any payment of funds directly to
a contractor or subcontractor or provider of services be deemed to create any
third party beneficiary status or recognition of same by any of the Payment and
Disbursement Agent, the Arrangers, the other Co-Agents or the other Lenders and
the Borrower agrees to hold the Payment and Disbursement Agent, the Arrangers,
the Co-Arrangers, the other Co-Agents and the other Lenders harmless from any of
the damages and expenses resulting from such a construction of the relationship
of the parties or any assertion thereof.

          XV.22.    NO BANKRUPTCY PROCEEDINGS. Each of the Borrower, the
Arrangers, the Co-Agents and the other Lenders hereby agrees that it will not
institute against any Designated Bank or join any other Person in instituting
against any Designated Bank any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement,
insolvency or liquidation proceeding under any federal or state bankruptcy or
similar law, until the later to occur of (i) one year and one day after the
payment in full of the latest maturing commercial paper note issued by such
Designated Bank and (ii) the Revolving Credit Termination Date.

          XV.23.    RETAINED PROPERTIES. Notwithstanding anything contained in
this Agreement to the contrary, the Company or any Subsidiary thereof will
retain direct or

                                       172
<Page>

indirect ownership of the Retained Properties, or, if the Company shall elect to
sell or otherwise transfer any of the Retained Properties, it shall retain any
and all proceeds received in connection therewith, and will not contribute any
portion thereof to the Borrower or any other entity or distribute any portion
thereof to any of its shareholders.

          XV.24.    ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement, taken together with all of
the other Loan Documents, embodies the entire agreement and understanding among
the parties hereto and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings,
written and oral, relating to the subject matter hereof.

                                       173

          IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Agreement has been duly executed as of the

                         DATE:      December 5, 2002

            EAGLE ENTERS INTO LIMITED WAIVER AGREEMENT WITH CONGRESS
                        FINANCIAL CORPORATION (CENTRAL)

         MILAN, ILLINOIS, December 5, 2002--Eagle Food Centers, Inc., (Nasdaq:
EGLE) today announced that it has entered into an agreement with Congress
Financial Corporation (Central) ("Congress") relating to an adjusted net worth
covenant in the Second Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement dated as
of August 24, 2001 ("Revolver"). The Revolver has a financial covenant requiring
the Company to maintain a minimum adjusted net worth, as defined by the
Revolver, of $3.0 million. To prevent a potential default under the covenant,
the Company has signed a Limited Waiver ("Waiver") in which Congress has agreed
to waive such default until February 1, 2003. In consideration of the Waiver,
Eagle has agreed, among other things, to maintain excess loan availability of
not less than $5.0 million during the term of the Waiver and to provide Congress
with certain financial projections for the fiscal year ending January 31, 2004
by January 15, 2003. In addition, Eagle has agreed to pay a Waiver fee and a
higher rate of interest on Revolver loans.

         We are pleased with the signing of the Waiver which permits Eagle to
continue to borrow under the Revolver," said Robert Kelly, Chairman and CEO. "To
provide greater flexibility during the remaining term of the Revolver, ending
August 24, 2004, the Company is in discussions with Congress to amend the
adjusted net worth covenant in the Revolver."

         Eagle Food Centers, Inc. is a leading regional supermarket chain
headquartered in Milan, Illinois, operating 63 stores in northern and central
Illinois and eastern Iowa under the trade names of Eagle Country Market, Foodco
and BOGO'S Food and Deals.
