          This  Warrant  is  one  of  the  Common  Stock  Purchase Warrants (the
"WARRANTS",  such  term to include all Warrants issued in substitution therefor)
originally  issued  in  connection with the issue and sale by the Company of the

     SECTION 1.     EXERCISE OF WARRANT.

          1A.     Manner  of  Exercise.  This  Warrant  may  be exercised by the
                  --------------------
holder hereof, in whole or in part, during normal business hours on any Business
Day  on  or  after  the  date  hereof  to  and including the Expiration Date, by
surrender of this Warrant, with the form of subscription at the end hereof (or a
reasonable  facsimile  thereof)  duly executed by such holder, to the Company at
its  principal  office  (or,  if  such  exercise  shall be in connection with an
underwritten  public  offering  of  shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities)
subject  to  this  Warrant, at the location at which the underwriters shall have
agreed  to accept delivery thereof), accompanied by payment (except as otherwise
provided  in  Section  1F), by wire transfer of immediately available funds to a
bank  account  designated  by the Company or by certified or official bank check
payable  to the order of the Company), in the amount obtained by multiplying (a)
the  number  of  shares  of  Original Common Stock (without giving effect to any
adjustment  therein)  designated  in  such  form  of  subscription by (b) $0.06.

          1B.     Adjustment to Number of Shares of Common Stock.  The number of
                  ----------------------------------------------
duly  authorized,  validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common
Stock  which  the  holder of this Warrant shall be entitled to receive upon each
exercise  hereof  shall  be  determined  by  multiplying the number of shares of
Common  Stock  which  would  otherwise  (but for the provisions of Section 2) be
issuable  upon  such  exercise,  as  designated by the holder hereof pursuant to
Section  1A,  by  a  fraction  of  which  (x) the numerator is $0.06 and (y) the
denominator  is  the Exercise Price in effect on the date of such exercise.  The
"EXERCISE  PRICE"  shall  initially  be  $0.06  per share, shall be adjusted and
readjusted  from  time  to time as provided in Section 2 and, as so adjusted and
readjusted,  shall  remain  in effect until a further adjustment or readjustment
thereof  is  required  by  Section  2.

          1C.     When  Exercise Effective.  Each exercise of this Warrant shall
                  ------------------------
be  deemed  to  have  been  effected  and the Exercise Price shall be determined
immediately  prior  to  the  close of business (unless such exercise shall be in
connection  with  an  underwritten public offering of shares of Common Stock (or
Other Securities) subject to this Warrant, in which event concurrently with such
exercise)  on the Business Day on which this Warrant shall have been surrendered
to the Company as provided in Section 1A, and at such time the person or persons
in  whose  name  or  names  any certificate or certificates for shares of Common
Stock  (or Other Securities) shall be issuable upon such exercise as provided in
Section  1D  shall  be  deemed  to  have  become the holder or holders of record
thereof.

          1D.     Delivery  of  Stock  Certificates,  etc.  Promptly  after  the
                  ---------------------------------------
exercise  of  this  Warrant,  in whole or in part, and in any event within three
Business  Days  thereafter  (unless such exercise shall be in connection with an
underwritten  public  offering  of  shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities)
subject  to  this  Warrant, in which event concurrently with such exercise), the
Company  at  its expense will cause to be issued in the name of and delivered to
the  holder  hereof  or,  subject  to  Section  8,  as  such  holder may direct,

                                      -2-
<PAGE>
               (1)     a  certificate  or  certificates  for  the number of duly
     authorized,  validly  issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common
     Stock  (or  Other  Securities)  to which such holder shall be entitled upon
     such  exercise,  and

               (2)     in  case  such exercise is in part only, a new Warrant or
     Warrants  of  like  tenor, specifying in the aggregate on the face or faces
     thereof  the  number of shares of Original Common Stock equal to the number
     of  such  shares  specified on the face of this Warrant minus the number of
     such  shares  designated  by  the  holder upon such exercise as provided in
     Section  1A.

          1E.     Fractional  Shares.  No fractional shares shall be issued upon
                  ------------------
exercise  of  this  Warrant  and no payment or adjustment shall be made upon any
exercise  on account of any cash dividends (except as provided in Section 2B) on
the  Common  Stock  or  Other  Securities  issued  upon  such  exercise.  If any
fractional  interest in a share of Common Stock would, except for the provisions
of  the  first  sentence of this Section 1E, be deliverable upon the exercise of
this  Warrant,  the  Company  shall,  in lieu of delivering the fractional share
therefor,  pay  to the holder exercising this Warrant an amount in cash equal to
the  Market  Price  of  such  fractional  interest.

          1F.     Cashless  Exercise.   As  an  alternative  to exercise of this
                  ------------------
Warrant  by  payment  by  wire  transfer  of  immediately available funds (or by
certified  or  official bank check), as provided above in Section 1A, the holder
of  this Warrant may exercise its right to purchase some or all of the shares of
Common  Stock  pursuant  to this Warrant, on a net basis without the exchange of
any  funds  (a  "CASHLESS  EXERCISE"), such that the holder hereof receives that
number  of  shares  of  Common Stock subscribed to pursuant to this Warrant less
that  number  of  shares of Common Stock, valued at Market Price, at the time of
exercise  equal  to  the aggregate Exercise Price that would otherwise have been
paid  by  the  holder  of  this  Warrant  for  such  shares  of  Common  Stock.

     SECTION 2.     PROTECTION AGAINST DILUTION OR OTHER IMPAIRMENT OF RIGHTS;
ADJUSTMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE.

          2A.     Issuance  of  Additional  Shares of Common Stock.  In case the
                  ------------------------------------------------
Company,  at  any time or from time to time after October 16, 2002 (the "INITIAL
DATE"),  shall  issue  or  sell  Additional  Shares  of  Common Stock (including
Additional  Shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued pursuant to Section 2C or
2D)  without consideration or for a consideration per share (determined pursuant
to  Section  2E) less than the Market Price in effect, in each case, on the date
of  and  immediately  prior  to such issue or sale, then, and in each such case,
subject  to  Section  2H, the Exercise Price shall be reduced, concurrently with
such  issue  or  sale,  to  a  price (calculated to the nearest .0001 of a cent)
determined  by  multiplying  such  Exercise  Price  by  a  fraction,

                                      -3-
<PAGE>
          (a)     the  numerator  of  which shall be (i) the number of shares of
     Common  Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issue or sale plus (ii)
                                                                       ----
     the  number  of  shares  of  Common Stock which the aggregate consideration
     received  by  the Company for the total number of such Additional Shares of
     Common  Stock  so  issued  or  sold would purchase at the Market Price, and

          (b)     the  denominator  of  which  shall  be the number of shares of
     Common  Stock  outstanding  immediately  after  such  issue  or  sale,

provided  that,  for  the purposes of this Section 2A, (x) immediately after any
--------
Additional  Shares  of  Common  Stock are deemed to have been issued pursuant to
Section  2C or 2D, such Additional Shares shall be deemed to be outstanding, and
(y)  treasury  shares  shall  not  be  deemed  to  be  outstanding.

          2B.     Extraordinary  Dividends  and  Distributions.  In  case  the
                  --------------------------------------------
Company  at  any  time or from time to time after the date hereof shall declare,
order,  pay  or  make  a  dividend  or  other  distribution  (including, without
limitation, any distribution of other or additional stock or other securities or
property  or  Options  by  way  of  dividend  or  spin-off,  reclassification,
recapitalization  or  similar  corporate  rearrangement  and  any  redemption or
acquisition  of  any such stock or Options on the Common Stock) other than (a) a
dividend  payable  in Additional Shares of Common Stock or in Options for Common
Stock  or  (b)  a  regular periodic dividend payable in cash and permitted to be
made  under  the Dividend Restrictions, then, and in each such case, the Company
shall pay over to the holder of this Warrant, on the date on which such dividend
or other distribution is paid to the holders of Common Stock, the securities and
other  property  (including  cash) which such holder would have received if such
holder  had exercised this Warrant immediately prior to the record date fixed in
connection  with  such  dividend  or  other  distribution.

          2C.     Treatment  of Options and Convertible Securities.  In case the
                  ------------------------------------------------
Company,  at  any  time or from time to time after the date hereof, shall issue,
sell,  grant  or  assume,  or  shall  fix a record date for the determination of
holders  of  any  class  of  securities  entitled  to  receive,  any  Options or
Convertible  Securities,  whether or not such Options or the right to convert or
exchange  any such Convertible Securities are immediately exercisable, then, and
in  each  such case, the maximum number of Additional Shares of Common Stock (as
set  forth  in the instrument relating thereto, without regard to any provisions
contained  therein for a subsequent adjustment of such number) issuable upon the
exercise  of  such Options or, in the case of Convertible Securities and Options
therefor,  issuable  upon  the  conversion  or  exchange  of  such  Convertible
Securities  (or  the  exercise  of  such  Options for Convertible Securities and
subsequent  conversion  or exchange of the Convertible Securities issued), shall
be  deemed to be Additional Shares of Common Stock issued as of the time of such

                                      -4-
<PAGE>
issue,  sale, grant or assumption or, in case such a record date shall have been
fixed,  as  of  the  close  of business on such record date, provided, that such
                                                             --------
Additional Shares of Common Stock shall not be deemed to have been issued unless
the  consideration  per share (determined pursuant to Section 2E) of such shares
would  be less than the Market Price in effect, in each case, on the date of and
immediately  prior to such issue, sale, grant or assumption or immediately prior
to  the  close of business on such record date or, if the Common Stock trades on
an  ex-dividend  basis,  on  the  date  prior to the commencement of ex-dividend
trading,  as  the  case  may be, and provided, further, that in any such case in
                                     --------  -------
which Additional Shares of Common Stock are deemed to be issued,

          (a)     if  an adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made upon the
     fixing  of  a  record  date  as  referred  to in the first sentence of this
     Section  2C, no further adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made as a
     result  of  the  subsequent  issue  or  sale  of any Options or Convertible
     Securities  for  the  purpose  of  which  such  record  date  was  set;

          (b)     no further adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made upon
     the  subsequent  issue  or  sale  of  Additional  Shares of Common Stock or
     Convertible  Securities upon the exercise of such Options or the conversion
     or  exchange  of  such  Convertible  Securities;

          (c)     if  such  Options  or  Convertible  Securities  by their terms
     provide,  with  the  passage  of  time  or otherwise, for any change in the
     consideration payable to the Company, or change in the number of Additional
     Shares  of Common Stock issuable, upon the exercise, conversion or exchange
     thereof  (by change of rate or otherwise), the Exercise Price computed upon
     the  original  issue,  sale,  grant  or  assumption  thereof  (or  upon the
     occurrence  of  the  record  date with respect thereto), and any subsequent
     adjustments  based thereon, shall, upon any such change becoming effective,
     be recomputed to reflect such change insofar as it affects such Options, or
     the  rights  of  conversion  or exchange under such Convertible Securities,
     which  are  outstanding  at  such  time;

          (d)     upon  the  expiration  of any such Options or of the rights of
     conversion  or  exchange  under any such Convertible Securities which shall
     not  have  been exercised (or upon purchase by the Company and cancellation
     or retirement of any such Options which shall not have been exercised or of
     any  such Convertible Securities the rights of conversion or exchange under
     which  shall not have been exercised), the Exercise Price computed upon the
     original  issue,  sale, grant or assumption thereof (or upon the occurrence
     of  the  record  date with respect thereto), and any subsequent adjustments
     based  thereon,  shall,  upon  such  expiration  (or  such  cancellation or
     retirement,  as  the  case  may  be),  be  recomputed  as  if:

                                      -5-
<PAGE>
               (i)     in the case of Options for Common Stock or in the case of
          Convertible  Securities,  the  only  Additional Shares of Common Stock
          issued  or  sold (or deemed issued or sold) were the Additional Shares
          of  Common Stock, if any (and without duplication), actually issued or
          sold  upon  the exercise of such Options or the conversion or exchange
          of such Convertible Securities and the consideration received therefor
          was  (x)  in  the case of Options for Common Stock, an amount equal to
          (A)  the consideration actually received by the Company for the issue,
          sale,  grant  or  assumption  of  all  such  Options,  whether  or not
          exercised, plus (B) the consideration actually received by the Company
                     ----
          upon  such  exercise,  minus (C) the consideration paid by the Company
                                 -----
          for  any  purchase of such Options which were not exercised, or (y) in
          the  case  of  Convertible  Securities,  an  amount  equal  to (A) the
          consideration  actually  received  by the Company for the issue, sale,
          grant  or  assumption  of  all  such Convertible Securities which were
          actually  converted  or  exchanged,  plus  (B)  the  additional
                                               ----
          consideration,  if  any,  actually  received  by the Company upon such
          conversion  or  exchange,  minus  (C)  the  excess,  if  any,  of  the
                                     -----
          consideration paid by the Company for any purchase of such Convertible
          Securities,  the rights of conversion or exchange under which were not
          exercised, over an amount that would be equal to the Fair Value of the
          Convertible  Securities  so  purchased  if such Convertible Securities
          were  not  convertible  into  or exchangeable for Additional Shares of
          Common  Stock,  and

               (ii)     in  the case of Options for Convertible Securities, only
          the  Convertible  Securities, if any, actually issued or sold upon the
          exercise  of  such Options were issued at the time of the issue, sale,
          grant or assumption of such Options, and the consideration received by
          the  Company  for the Additional Shares of Common Stock deemed to have
          then been issued was an amount equal to (x) the consideration actually
          received  by  the  Company for the issue, sale, grant or assumption of
          all such Options, whether or not exercised, plus (y) the consideration
                                                      ----
          deemed  to  have been received by the Company (pursuant to Section 2E)
          upon  the  issue or sale of the Convertible Securities with respect to
          which  such  Options  were  actually  exercised,  minus  (z)  the
                                                            -----
          consideration  paid  by  the  Company for any purchase of such Options
          which  were  not  exercised;  and

          (e)     no recomputation pursuant to subsection (c) or (d) above shall
     have  the  effect  of  increasing  the  Exercise Price then in effect by an
     amount in excess of the amount of the adjustment thereof originally made in
     respect  of  the  issue,  sale,  grant  or  assumption  of  such Options or
     Convertible  Securities.

          2D.     Treatment  of Stock Dividends, Stock Splits, Etc.  In case the
                  ------------------------------------------------
Company,  at  any time or from time to time after the date hereof, shall declare
or  pay  any  dividend  or  other distribution on any class of securities of the
Company  payable in shares of Common Stock, or shall effect a subdivision of the
outstanding  shares  of  Common  Stock into a greater number of shares of Common

                                      -6-
<PAGE>
Stock  (by reclassification or otherwise than by payment of a dividend in Common
Stock),  then, and in each such case, Additional Shares of Common Stock shall be
deemed  to  have  been  issued  (a)  in  the  case of any such dividend or other
distribution, immediately after the close of business on the record date for the
determination  of  holders  of  any class of securities entitled to receive such
dividend  or  other distribution, or (b) in the case of any such subdivision, at
the  close  of  business on the day immediately prior to the day upon which such
corporate  action  becomes  effective.

          2E.     Computation of Consideration.  For the purposes of this
                  ----------------------------
Warrant:

          (a)     The  consideration  for  the  issue  or sale of any Additional
     Shares  of  Common Stock or for the issue, sale, grant or assumption of any
     Options or Convertible Securities, irrespective of the accounting treatment
     of  such  consideration,

               (i)     insofar  as it consists of cash, shall be computed as the
          amount  of cash received by the Company, and insofar as it consists of
          securities  or  other  property,  shall  be  computed  as  of the date
          immediately  preceding  such  issue,  sale, grant or assumption as the
          Fair  Value  of  such  consideration  (or,  if  such  consideration is
          received  for  the  issue or sale of Additional Shares of Common Stock
          and  the  Market  Price  thereof  is  less than the Fair Value of such
          consideration, then such consideration shall be computed as the Market
          Price of such Additional Shares of Common Stock), in each case without
          deducting  any  expenses  paid  or  incurred  by  the  Company,  any
          commissions  or  compensation paid or concessions or discounts allowed
          to  underwriters, dealers or others performing similar services or any
          accrued  interest  or dividends in connection with such issue or sale,
          and

               (ii)     in  case Additional Shares of Common Stock are issued or
          sold or Options or Convertible Securities are issued, sold, granted or
          assumed together with other stock or securities or other assets of the
          Company for a consideration which covers both, shall be the proportion
          of  such consideration so received, computed as provided in clause (i)
          above,  allocable to such Additional Shares of Common Stock or Options
          or  Convertible  Securities,  as the case may be, all as determined in
          good  faith  by  the  Board  of  Directors  or  the  Company.

          (b)     All  Additional Shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible
     Securities  issued  in payment of any dividend or other distribution on any
     class  of  stock  of  the Company and all Additional Shares of Common Stock
     issued  to  effect  a subdivision of the outstanding shares of Common Stock
     into  a  greater  number  of shares of Common Stock (by reclassification or
     otherwise than by payment of a dividend in Common Stock) shall be deemed to
     have  been  issued  without  consideration.

          (c)     Additional  Shares  of Common Stock deemed to have been issued
     for  consideration  pursuant  to  Section  2C,  relating  to  Options  and
     Convertible  Securities,  shall  be  deemed  to  have  been  issued  for  a
     consideration  per  share  determined  by  dividing

               (i)     the  total amount, if any, received and receivable by the
          Company  as  consideration for the issue, sale, grant or assumption of
          the  Options  or  Convertible Securities in question, plus the minimum

          aggregate  amount  of  additional  consideration  (as set forth in the
          instruments  relating  thereto,  without  regard  to  any  provision
          contained  therein  for a subsequent adjustment of such consideration)
          payable  to  the  Company upon the exercise in full of such Options or
          the  conversion  or exchange of such Convertible Securities or, in the
          case  of  Options  for  Convertible  Securities,  the exercise of such
          Options  for  Convertible Securities and the conversion or exchange of
          such Convertible Securities, in each case computing such consideration
          as  provided  in  the  foregoing  subsection  (a),

     by

               (ii)     the  maximum  number  of  shares of Common Stock (as set
          forth  in  the  instruments  relating  thereto,  without regard to any
          provision  contained  therein  for  a  subsequent  adjustment  of such
          number)  issuable  upon the exercise of such Options or the conversion
          or  exchange  of  such  Convertible  Securities.

          2F.     Adjustments  for  Combinations,  Etc.  In case the outstanding
                  ------------------------------------
shares of Common Stock shall be combined or consolidated, by reclassification or
otherwise, into a lesser number of shares of Common Stock, the Exercise Price in
effect  immediately  prior  to  such  combination  or  consolidation  shall,
concurrently  with  the  effectiveness  of such combination or consolidation, be
proportionately  increased.

          2G.     Dilution  in  Case  of  Other  Securities.  In  case any Other
                  -----------------------------------------
Securities shall be issued or sold or shall become subject to issue or sale upon
the conversion or exchange of any stock (or Other Securities) of the Company (or
any issuer of Other Securities or any other Person referred to in Section 2I) or
to subscription, purchase or other acquisition pursuant to any Options issued or
granted  by the Company (or any such other issuer or Person) for a consideration
such  as  to  dilute  the  exercise rights granted by this Warrant on a basis to
which  the  other  provisions  of this Section 2 do not apply, then, and in each
such  case, the computations, adjustments and readjustments provided for in this
Warrant  with  respect to the Exercise Price shall be made as nearly as possible
in  the  manner  so  provided  and  applied  to  determine  the  amount of Other
Securities from time to time receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant, so as
to  protect  the  holder  of  this  Warrant against the effect of such dilution.

<PAGE>
          2H.     Minimum  Adjustment  of  Exercise Price.  If the amount of any
                  ---------------------------------------
adjustment  of  the  Exercise  Price  required  hereunder would be less than one
percent of the Exercise Price in effect at the time such adjustment is otherwise
so required to be made, such amount shall be carried forward and adjustment with
respect  thereto made at the time of and together with any subsequent adjustment
which,  together  with  such  amount  and any other amount or amounts so carried
forward,  shall aggregate at least one percent of such Exercise Price; provided,
                                                                       --------
that  upon the exercise of this Warrant, all adjustments carried forward and not
theretofore  made up to and including the date of such exercise shall be made to
the nearest .0001 of a cent.

          2I.     Changes  in  Common  Stock.  In  case  at any time the Company
                  --------------------------
shall  be  a  party to any transaction (including, without limitation, a merger,
consolidation,  sale  of  all  or  substantially  all  of  the Company's assets,
liquidation  or  recapitalization  of  the Common Stock) in which the previously
outstanding  Common  Stock  shall  be  changed  into  or exchanged for different
securities  of  the  Company  or  common  stock  or  other securities of another
corporation  or  interests in a noncorporate entity or other property (including
cash),  or any combination of any of the foregoing, or in which the Common Stock
ceases  to  be  a  publicly  traded security either listed on the New York Stock
Exchange  or the American Stock Exchange or quoted by the Nasdaq National Market
or  any  successor  thereto  or  comparable  system (each such transaction being
herein  called  the  "TRANSACTION",  and  any Transaction that has not been duly
approved  by a majority of the members of the Company's board of directors as of
the  date  hereof  together  with  such  directors  as have been approved by the
Company's  board of directors as of the date hereof, or other directors approved
by them (each such Transaction being herein called a "HOSTILE TRANSACTION"), the
date  on  which  the  Transaction  is first announced to the public being herein
called  the  "ANNOUNCEMENT  DATE",  the  date of consummation of the Transaction
being  herein  called  the  "CONSUMMATION  DATE",  the Company (in the case of a
recapitalization  of the Common Stock or any other such transaction in which the
Company  retains  substantially all of its assets and survives as a corporation)
or such other corporation or entity (in each other case) being herein called the
"ACQUIRING COMPANY", and the common stock (or equivalent equity interest) of the
Acquiring Company being herein called the "ACQUIRER'S COMMON STOCK", except that
if  the  Acquiring  Company  shall  not  meet  the  requirements  set  forth  in
subsections  (d),  (e)  and  (f)  below  and  a  corporation  which  directly or
indirectly  controls the Acquiring Company (a "PARENT") meets such requirements,
"Acquiring  Company"  shall  refer  to such Parent and "Acquirer's Common Stock"
shall  refer  to  such  Parent's common stock (or equivalent equity interests)),
then, as a condition of the consummation of the Transaction, lawful and adequate
provisions  (in  form  reasonably satisfactory to the Required Holders) shall be
made  so  that  the  holder of this Warrant, (X) solely in the case of a Hostile
Transaction,  upon  the exercise hereof at any time on or after the Consummation
Date  (but subject, in the case of an election pursuant to subsection (b) or (c)
below, to the time limitation hereinafter provided for such election),

          (a)     shall  be  entitled  to  receive,  and  this  Warrant  shall
     thereafter  represent  the  right  to  receive, in lieu of the Common Stock
     issuable  upon  such exercise prior to the Consummation Date, shares of the
     Acquirer's  Common Stock at an Exercise Price per share equal to the lesser
     of  (i)  the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the Consummation
     Date  multiplied  by  a fraction the numerator of which is the Market Price
     per  share of the Acquirer's Common Stock determined as of the Consummation
     Date  and  the  denominator  of  which is the Market Price per share of the
     Common  Stock  determined  as  of the Consummation Date, or (ii) the Market
     Price  per  share  of  the  Acquirer's  Common  Stock  determined as of the
     Consummation  Date  (subject in each case to adjustments from and after the
     Consummation  Date  as  nearly  equivalent  as  possible to the adjustments
     provided  for  in  this  Warrant),

     or  at  the election of the holder of this Warrant pursuant to notice given
     to  the  Company  within  six  months  after  the  Consummation  Date,

          (b)     shall  be  entitled  to  receive,  and  this  Warrant  shall
     thereafter  represent the right to receive, in lieu of each share of Common
     Stock  issuable  upon  such exercise prior to the Consummation Date, either
     (i)  the greatest amount of cash, securities or other property given to any
     stockholder  in  consideration  for  any  share of Common Stock at any time
     during the period from and after the Announcement Date to and including the
     Consummation Date by the Acquiring Company, the Company or any Affiliate of
     either  thereof,  or  (ii)  the  Market  Price per share for the Acquirer's
     Common Stock, determined as of the day within the period from and after the
     Announcement  Date  to  and  including  the Consummation Date for which the
     amount  determined as provided in the definition of Market Price shall have
     been  the  greatest,

     or,  if neither the Acquiring Company nor the Parent meets the requirements
     set  forth  in  subsections  (d), (e) and (f) below, at the election of the
     holder  of  this Warrant pursuant to notice given to the Company within six
     months  after  the  Consummation  Date,

          (c)     shall  be  entitled  to  receive,  within  30  days after such
     election,  in  full satisfaction of the exercise rights afforded under this
     Warrant  to the holder thereof, an amount equal to the fair market value of
     such  exercise  rights  as  determined  by an independent investment banker
     (with  an established national reputation as a valuer of equity securities)
     selected  by  the  Required  Holders with the approval of the Company, such
     fair  market  value  to  be determined with regard to all material relevant
     factors  but  without  regard  to any negative effects on such value of the
     Transaction,

and (Y) in the case of any Transaction other than a Hostile Transaction, shall
be entitled to receive upon the exercise hereof at any time prior to the
Consummation Date any of the following at the election of the holder of this
Warrant made on or prior to the Consummation Date:

                                      -10-
<PAGE>
          (a)     the  Common  Stock  issuable  upon  such  exercise;

          (b)     in  lieu  of  each  share  of  Common Stock issuable upon such
     exercise  prior to the Consummation Date, either (i) the greatest amount of
     cash,  securities  or  other  property  given  to  any  stockholder  in
     consideration  for  any share of Common Stock at any time during the period
     from and after the Announcement Date to and including the Consummation Date
     by  the  Acquiring Company, the Company or any Affiliate of either thereof,
     or  (ii)  the  Market  Price  per  share  for  the Acquirer's Common Stock,
     determined  as of the day within the period from and after the Announcement
     Date to and including the Consummation Date for which the amount determined
     as provided in the definition of Market Price shall have been the greatest;

     or,  if neither the Acquiring Company nor the Parent meets the requirements
     set  forth  in  subsections  (d),  (e)  and  (f)  below,

          (c)     in  full  satisfaction  of  the exercise rights afforded under
     this  Warrant  to  the  holder  thereof, an amount equal to the fair market
     value  of  such  exercise rights as determined by an independent investment
     banker  (with  an  established  national  reputation  as a valuer of equity
     securities)  selected  by  the  Required  Holders  with the approval of the
     Company,  such  fair  market  value  to  be  determined  with regard to all
     material  relevant  factors.

In any election by the holder of this Warrant under subsection (b)(ii) of either
of clauses (X) and (Y) of this Section 2I, the number of shares of the
Acquirer's Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise or conversion of this
Warrant shall be deemed to be such as shall result from adjustments thereto that
would have been required if an election had been made under subsection (a) of
clause (X) of this Section 2I.

The  Company  agrees to obtain, and deliver to each holder of Warrants a copy of
the  determination of an independent investment banker (selected by the Required
Holders  pursuant  to subsection (c) of clauses (X) or (Y) above, as applicable)
necessary  to permit elections under subsection (c) of clauses (X) or (Y) above,
as  applicable, within 15 days after the Consummation Date of any Transaction to
which  subsection  (c)  of  clauses  (X)  or  (Y),  as  applicable,  applies.

In the case of any Transaction other than a Hostile Transaction, to the extent
that the holder of this Warrant shall not already have exercised this Warrant in
full at the time immediately prior to the consummation of such Transaction, then
the unexercised portion of this Warrant will be deemed to have been exercised at
such time and the holder of this Warrant shall be deemed to have elected from
subsection (b) of clause (Y).

          The requirements referred to above applicable to the Acquiring Company
or its Parent are that, immediately after the Consummation Date:

                                      -11-
<PAGE>
          (d)     it  is  a solvent corporation organized, under the laws of any
     state  of  the  United States of America, having its common stock listed on
     the New York Stock Exchange or the American Stock Exchange or quoted by the
     Nasdaq  National  Market or any successor thereto or comparable system, and
     such  common  stock  continues to meet the requirements for such listing or
     quotation,

          (e)     it  is required to file, and in each of its three fiscal years
     immediately  preceding  the  Consummation  Date has filed, reports with the
     Commission  pursuant  to  Section  13  or  15(d)  of  the Exchange Act, and

          (f)     in  the case of the Parent, such Parent is required to include
     the Acquiring Company in the consolidated financial statements contained in
     the Parent's Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the Commission and is
     not  itself  included in the consolidated financial statements of any other
     Person  (other  than  its  consolidated  subsidiaries).

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Company shall not
effect any Transaction unless prior to the consummation thereof each corporation
or  entity  (other  than  the  Company)  which  may  be  required to deliver any
securities  or  other  property  upon  the exercise of Warrants shall assume, by
written  instrument  delivered  to  each  holder  of Warrants, the obligation to
deliver  to  such  holder  such  securities  or  other  property as to which, in
accordance  with  the  foregoing  provisions,  such holder may be entitled, and,
solely  in  the  case of a Hostile Transaction, such corporation or entity shall
have  similarly  delivered  to each holder of Warrants an opinion of counsel for
such  corporation  or  entity,  satisfactory  to  each holder of Warrants, which
opinion  shall state that all the outstanding Warrants shall thereafter continue
in  full  force  and effect and shall be enforceable against such corporation or
entity in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof, and addresses such other
matters  as  such  holders  may  reasonably  request.

          2J.     Certain Issues Excepted.  Anything herein to the contrary
                  -----------------------
notwithstanding, the Company shall not be required to make any adjustment of the
Exercise Price in the case of (i) the issuance of the Warrants and the issuance
of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, (ii) any
issuance of shares of Common Stock upon the exercise by the holder hereof of the
preemptive rights provided in Section 10 of the Stockholders' Agreement or (iii)
the issuance of up to 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock upon the purchase thereof
by Company employees under an employee stock purchase plan or the exercise of
options granted pursuant to stock option plans for employees and directors of
the Company, in each case adopted by the Company's board of directors prior to
or after the date of this Warrant, provided that if any such options shall
expire or terminate, in whole or in part, without having been exercised in full,

                                      -12-
<PAGE>
the shares of Common Stock not acquired under such options shall be added to the
number of shares of Common Stock subject to this clause (iii)  (any adjustment
or issuance referred to in this Section 2J, a "PERMITTED EVENT").

          2K.     Notice  of  Adjustment.  Upon  the  occurrence  of  any  event
                  ----------------------
requiring  an  adjustment  of the Exercise Price, then and in each such case the
Company  shall  promptly  deliver  to  the  holder  of this Warrant an Officer's
Certificate  stating  the  Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment and the
increase  or  decrease, if any, in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable
upon the exercise of this Warrant, setting forth in reasonable detail the method
of  calculation  and  the  facts  upon  which  such  calculation  is  based.

          2L.     Other Notices.  In case at any time:
                  -------------

          (a)     the  Company  shall declare to the holders of Common Stock any
     dividend  other  than a regular periodic cash dividend or any periodic cash
     dividend  in  excess of 115% of the cash dividend for the comparable fiscal
     period  in  the  immediately  preceding  fiscal  year;

          (b)     the  Company  shall  declare  or  pay any dividend upon Common
     Stock  payable  in stock or make any special dividend or other distribution
     (other  than  regular  cash  dividends)  to  the  holders  of Common Stock;

          (c)     the  Company  shall  offer  for  subscription  pro rata to the
     holders  of  Common  Stock  any  additional shares of stock of any class or
     other  rights;

          (d)     there shall be any capital reorganization, or reclassification
     of  the  capital  stock  of  the Company, or consolidation or merger of the
     Company with, or sale of all or substantially all of its assets to, another
     corporation  or  other  entity;

          (e)     there  shall  be  a  voluntary  or  involuntary  dissolution,
     liquidation  or  winding-up  of  the  Company;

          (f)     there shall be made any tender offer for any shares of capital
     stock  of  the  Company;  or

          (g)     there shall be any other Transaction;

then,  in any one or more of such cases, the Company shall give to the holder of
this  Warrant  (i) at least 20 days prior to any event referred to in subsection
(a), (b), (c), (d) or (e) above, and within 5 days after it has knowledge of any
pending  tender  offer or other Transaction, written notice of the date on which
the  books  of  the  Company  shall  close  or  a record shall be taken for such

                                      -13-
<PAGE>
dividend,  distribution or subscription rights or for determining rights to vote
in  respect of any such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger,
sale,  dissolution,  liquidation, winding-up or Transaction or the date by which
stockholders  must tender shares in any tender offer and (ii) in the case of any
such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution,
liquidation,  winding-up or tender offer or Transaction known to the Company, at
least  20  days  prior  written  notice  of  the  date (or, if not then known, a
reasonable approximation thereof by the Company) when the same shall take place.
Such  notice  in accordance with the foregoing clause (i) shall also specify, in
the  case of any such dividend, distribution or subscription rights, the date on
which  the holders of Common Stock shall be entitled thereto, and such notice in
accordance  with  the foregoing clause (ii) shall also specify the date on which
the holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to exchange their Common Stock for
securities  or  other  property  deliverable  upon  such  reorganization,
reclassification,  consolidation,  merger,  sale,  dissolution,  liquidation,
winding-up,  tender offer or Transaction, as the case may be.  Such notice shall
also  state  that  the  action  in question or the record date is subject to the
effectiveness  of  a  registration  statement  under  the Securities Act or to a
favorable  vote  of  security  holders,  if  either  is  required.

          2M.     Certain  Events.  If  any  event  occurs as to which the other
                  ---------------
provisions of this Warrant are not strictly applicable or if strictly applicable
would  not  fairly protect the exercise rights of the holders of this Warrant in
accordance  with  the  essential intent and principles of such provisions, then,
notwithstanding any limitation on amendments or other modifications set forth in
any  of  the  Transaction  Documents  to the contrary, the terms of this Warrant
shall  be adjusted by the Company and the Required Holders on a basis consistent
with  such  essential  intent  and  principles,  necessary  to preserve, without
dilution,  the  rights  of  the  holders of the Warrants; provided, that no such
                                                          --------
adjustment  shall  have the effect of increasing the Exercise Price as otherwise
determined  pursuant  to  this Warrant.  The Company may make such reductions in
the  Exercise Price as it deems advisable, including any reductions necessary to
ensure  that any event treated for federal income tax purposes as a distribution
of stock or stock rights not be taxable to recipients.  Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary in this Warrant, the amount of consideration per share of Common
Stock paid upon any exercise of this Warrant (whether such consideration is paid
in  cash  or  pursuant  to  Section  1F) pursuant to Section 1A and after giving
effect  to  the  adjustment  in the number of shares of Common Stock pursuant to
Section  1B  shall  not be less than the then applicable par value of the Common
Stock;  provided  that, in the event the consideration per share of Common Stock
        --------
paid  upon  exercise  of  this  Warrant  shall  be  higher  as  a  result of the
application  of  this sentence (the extent to which such consideration per share
is  higher  multiplied  by  the  number of shares for which this Warrant is then
            --------------
exercisable  being  referred  to  as  the  "ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATION"), then the
number  of shares for which this Warrant is then exercisable shall automatically
be increased such that the value of such additional shares, net of the par value
required  to  be  paid  therefor,  shall  equal  the  value  of  the  Additional
Consideration.

                                      -14-
<PAGE>
          2N.     Prohibition  of  Certain  Actions.  The  Company  will not, by
                  ---------------------------------
amendment  of  its  certificate  of incorporation or through any reorganization,
transfer  of  assets,  consolidation,  merger,  dissolution,  issue  or  sale of
securities  or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance
or  performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by the
Company,  but  will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all
the  provisions  of  this  Warrant  and  in the taking of all such action as may
reasonably  be  requested  by the holder of this Warrant in order to protect the
exercise  privilege  of  the  holder  of  this Warrant against dilution or other
impairment,  consistent  with  the  tenor  and purpose of this Warrant.  Without
limiting  the generality of the foregoing, the Company (a) will not increase the
par  value  of  any  shares of Common Stock receivable upon the exercise of this
Warrant  above  the Exercise Price then in effect, (b) will take all such action
as  may  be  necessary  or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and
legally  issue  fully  paid  and  nonassessable  shares of Common Stock upon the
exercise  of  all  Warrants from time to time outstanding, (c) will not take any
action which results in any adjustment of the Exercise Price if the total number
of shares of Common Stock or Other Securities issuable after the action upon the
exercise  of  all  of  the  Warrants  would exceed the total number of shares of
Common Stock or Other Securities then authorized by the Company's certificate of
incorporation  and  available for the purpose of issue upon such conversion, and
(d)  will  not  issue any capital stock of any class which has the right to more
than  one vote per share or any capital stock of any class which is preferred as
to  dividends  or as to the distribution of assets upon voluntary or involuntary
dissolution, liquidation or winding up, unless the rights of the holders thereof
shall  be  limited  to  a  fixed  sum or percentage (or floating rate related to
market  yields)  of  par  value  or  stated value in respect of participation in
dividends and a fixed sum or percentage of par value or stated value in any such
distribution  of  assets.

     SECTION 3.     STOCK TO BE RESERVED.  The Company will at all times reserve
and keep available out of the authorized Common Stock, solely for the purpose of
issue  upon  the  exercise  of  the  Warrants as herein provided, such number of
shares  of  Common  Stock  as  shall  then  be issuable upon the exercise of all
outstanding  Warrants,  and  the  Company  will  maintain at all times all other
rights  and  privileges  sufficient  to enable it to fulfill all its obligations
hereunder.  The Company covenants that all shares of Common Stock which shall be
so issuable shall, upon issuance, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid
and  nonassessable,  free  from  preemptive or similar rights on the part of the
holders of any shares of capital stock or securities of the Company or any other
Person,  and  free  from  all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue
thereof (not including any income taxes payable by the holders of Warrants being
exercised  in respect of gains thereon), and the Exercise Price will be credited
to  the  capital  and  surplus  of  the Company.  The Company will take all such
action  as may be necessary to assure that such shares of Common Stock may be so
issued  without  violation  of  any  applicable  law  or  regulation,  or of any
applicable  requirements of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.
and  of  any  domestic  securities  exchange  upon which the Common Stock may be
listed.

                                      -15-
<PAGE>
     SECTION 4.     REGISTRATION OF COMMON STOCK.  If any shares of Common Stock
required  to  be  reserved  for  purposes  of  the  exercise of Warrants require
registration with or approval of any governmental authority under any federal or
state  law  (other than the Securities Act, registration under which is governed
by  the  Stockholders'  Agreement),  before  such  shares may be issued upon the
exercise  thereof,  the  Company  will,  at  its expense and as expeditiously as
possible,  use  its  best  efforts to cause such shares to be duly registered or
approved,  as the case may be.  Shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of
the  Warrants  shall  be  registered  by the Company under the Securities Act or
similar  statute  then  in  force if required by the Stockholders' Agreement and
subject  to  the  conditions  stated in such agreement.  At any such time as the
Common  Stock  is  listed  on  any national securities exchange or quoted by the

     2.2. Procedure for Borrowing Advances.
          --------------------------------

          (a)     Borrowing Agent on behalf of any Borrower may notify Agent
prior to 1:00 p.m. New York time on a Business Day of a Borrower's request to
incur, on that day, a Revolving Advance hereunder.  Should any amount required
to be paid as interest hereunder, or as fees or other charges under this
Agreement or any other agreement with Agent or Lenders, or with respect to any
other Obligation, become due, same shall be deemed a request for a Revolving
Advance as of the date such payment is due, in the amount required to pay in
full such interest, fee, charge or Obligation under this Agreement or any other
agreement with Agent or Lenders, and such request shall be irrevocable.

          (b)     Notwithstanding the provisions of (a) above, in the event any
Borrower desires to obtain a Eurodollar Rate Loan, Borrowing Agent shall give
Agent at least three (3) Business Days' prior written notice, specifying (i) the
date of the proposed borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), (ii) the type of
borrowing and the amount on the date of such Advance to be borrowed, which
amount shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 and in integral multiples of
$500,000 in addition thereto, and (iii) the duration of the first Interest
Period therefor.  Interest Periods for Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be for one,
two, three or six months; provided, if an Interest Period would end on a day
                          --------
that is not a Business Day, it shall end on the next succeeding Business Day
unless such day falls in the next succeeding calendar month in which case the
Interest Period shall end on the next preceding Business Day.  No Eurodollar
Rate Loan shall be made available to Borrower during the continuance of a
Default or an Event of Default.

          (c)     Each Interest Period of a Eurodollar Rate Loan shall commence
on the

                                       21
<PAGE>
date such Eurodollar Rate Loan is made and shall end on such date as Borrowing
Agent may elect as set forth in subsection (b)(iii) above provided that the
exact length of each Interest Period shall be determined in accordance with the
practice of the interbank market for offshore Dollar deposits and no Interest
Period shall end after the last day of the Term.

               Borrowing Agent shall elect the initial Interest Period
applicable to a Eurodollar Rate Loan by its notice of borrowing given to Agent
pursuant to Section 2.2(b) or by its notice of conversion given to Agent
pursuant to Section 2.2(d), as the case may be.  Borrowing Agent shall elect the
duration of each succeeding Interest Period by giving irrevocable written notice
to Agent of such duration not less than three (3) Business Days prior to the
last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to such Eurodollar Rate
Loan.  If Agent  does not receive timely notice of the Interest Period elected
by Borrowing Agent, Borrowers shall be deemed to have elected to convert to a
Domestic Rate Loan subject to Section 2.2(d) hereinbelow.

          (d)     Provided that no Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, any Borrower may, on the last Business Day of the then current
Interest Period applicable to any outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loan, or on any
Business Day with respect to Domestic Rate Loans, convert any such loan into a
loan of another type in the same aggregate principal amount provided that any
conversion of a Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be made only on the last Business Day
of the then current Interest Period applicable to such Eurodollar Rate Loan.  If
a Borrower desires to convert a loan, Borrowing Agent shall give Agent not less
than three (3) Business Days' prior written notice to convert from a Domestic
Rate Loan to a Eurodollar Rate Loan or one (1) Business Day's prior written
notice to convert from a Eurodollar Rate Loan to a Domestic Rate Loan,
specifying the date of such conversion, the loans to be converted and if the
conversion is from a Domestic Rate Loan to any other type of loan, the duration
of the first Interest Period therefor.  After giving effect to each such
conversion, there shall not be outstanding more than five (5) Eurodollar Rate
Loans, in the aggregate.

          (e)     At its option and upon three (3) Business Days' prior written
notice, any Borrower may prepay any Eurodollar Rate Loans in whole at any time
or in part from time to time, without premium or penalty, but with accrued
interest on the principal being prepaid to the date of such repayment.  Such
Borrower shall specify the date of prepayment of Advances which are Eurodollar
Rate Loans and the amount of such prepayment.  In the event that any prepayment
of a Eurodollar Rate Loan is required or permitted on a date other than the last
Business Day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, Borrowers
shall indemnify Agent and Lenders therefor in accordance with Section 2.2(f)
hereof.

          (f)     Each Borrower shall indemnify Agent and Lenders and hold Agent
and Lenders harmless from and against any and all losses or expenses that Agent
and Lenders may sustain or incur as a consequence of any prepayment, conversion
of or any default by any Borrower in the payment of the principal of or interest
on any Eurodollar Rate Loan or failure by any Borrower to complete a borrowing
of, a prepayment of or conversion of or to a Eurodollar Rate Loan after notice
thereof has been given, including, but not limited to, any interest payable by
Agent or Lenders to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to make or maintain
its Eurodollar Rate Loans hereunder.  For purposes of this Section, it shall be
assumed that Agent or

                                       22
<PAGE>
Lenders had obtained funds from such lenders of funds in order to make or
maintain its Eurodollar Rate Loans hereunder, for a corresponding amount and
term. A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to the
foregoing sentence submitted by Agent or any Lender to Borrowing Agent shall be
conclusive absent manifest error.

          (g)     Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, if any applicable
law, treaty, regulation or directive, or any change therein or in the
interpretation or application thereof, shall make it unlawful for any Lender
(for purposes of this subsection (g), the term "Lender" shall include any Lender
and the office or branch where any Lender or any corporation or bank controlling
such Lender makes or maintains any Eurodollar Rate Loans) to make or maintain
its Eurodollar Rate Loans, the obligation of Lenders to make Eurodollar Rate
Loans hereunder shall forthwith be cancelled and Borrowers shall, if any
affected Eurodollar Rate Loans are then outstanding, promptly upon request from
Agent, either pay all such affected Eurodollar Rate Loans or convert such
affected Eurodollar Rate Loans into loans of another type.  If any such payment
or conversion of any Eurodollar Rate Loan is made on a day that is not the last
day of the Interest Period applicable to such Eurodollar Rate Loan, Borrowers
shall pay Agent, upon Agent's request, such amount or amounts as may be
necessary to compensate Lenders for any loss or expense sustained or incurred by
Lenders in respect of such Eurodollar Rate Loan as a result of such payment or
conversion, including (but not limited to) any interest or other amounts payable
by Lenders to lenders of funds obtained by Lenders in order to make or maintain
such Eurodollar Rate Loan.  A certificate as to any additional amounts payable
pursuant to the foregoing sentence submitted by Lenders to Borrowing Agent shall
be conclusive absent manifest error.

     2.3.     Disbursement of Advance Proceeds.  All Advances shall be disbursed
              --------------------------------
from whichever office or other place Agent may designate from time to time and,
together with any and all other Obligations of Borrowers to Agent or Lenders,
shall be charged to Borrowers' Account on Agent's books.  During the Term,
Borrowers may use the Revolving Advances by borrowing, prepaying and
reborrowing, all in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof.  The
proceeds of each Revolving Advance requested by Borrowers or deemed to have been
requested by Borrowers under Section 2.2(a) hereof shall, with respect to
requested Revolving Advances to the extent Lenders make such Revolving Advances,
be made available to the applicable Borrower on the day so requested by way of
credit to such Borrower's operating account at PNC, or such other bank as
Borrowing Agent may designate following notification to Agent, in immediately
available federal funds or other immediately available funds or, with respect to
Revolving Advances deemed to have been requested by any Borrower, be disbursed
to Agent to be applied to the outstanding Obligations giving rise to such deemed
request.

     2.4.     Maximum Advances.  The aggregate balance of Revolving Advances
              ----------------
outstanding at any time shall not exceed the lesser of (a) Maximum Revolving
Advance Amount less the aggregate undrawn amount of outstanding Letters of
Credit or (b) the Formula Amount less the aggregate undrawn amount of
outstanding Letters of Credit.

     2.5.  Repayment of Advances.
           ---------------------

          (a)     The Revolving Advances shall be due and payable in full on the
last day of the Term subject to earlier prepayment as herein provided.

                                       23
<PAGE>
          (b)     Each Borrower recognizes that the amounts evidenced by checks,
notes, drafts or any other items of payment relating to and/or proceeds of
Collateral may not be collectible by Agent on the date received.  In
consideration of Agent's agreement to conditionally credit Borrowers' Account as
of the Business Day on which Agent receives those items of payment, each
Borrower agrees that, in computing the charges under this Agreement, all items
of payment shall be deemed applied by Agent on account of the Obligations one
(1) Business Day after the Business Day Agent receives such payments via wire
transfer or electronic depository check.  Agent is not, however, required to
credit Borrowers' Account for the amount of any item of payment which is
unsatisfactory to Agent and Agent may charge Borrowers' Account for the amount
of any item of payment which is returned to Agent unpaid.

          (c)     All payments of principal, interest and other amounts payable
hereunder, or under any of the Other Documents shall be made to Agent at the
Payment Office not later than 1:00 P.M. (New York Time) on the due date therefor
in lawful money of the United States of America in federal funds or other funds
immediately available to Agent.  Agent shall have the right to effectuate
payment on any and all Obligations due and owing hereunder by charging
Borrowers' Account or by making Advances as provided in Section 2.2 hereof.

          (d)     Borrowers shall pay principal, interest, and all other amounts
payable hereunder, or under any related agreement, without any deduction
whatsoever, including, but not limited to, any deduction for any setoff or
counterclaim.

     2.6.     Repayment of Excess Advances.  The aggregate balance of Advances
              ----------------------------
outstanding at any time in excess of the maximum amount of Advances permitted
hereunder shall be immediately due and payable without the necessity of any
demand, at the Payment Office, whether or not a Default or Event of Default has
occurred.

     2.7.     Statement of Account.  Agent shall maintain, in accordance with
              --------------------
its customary procedures, a loan account ("Borrowers' Account") in the name of
Borrowers in which shall be recorded the date and amount of each Advance made by
Agent and the date and amount of each payment in respect thereof; provided,
                                                                  --------
however, the failure by Agent to record the date and amount of any Advance shall
-------
not adversely affect Agent or any Lender.  Each month, Agent shall send to
Borrowing Agent a statement showing the accounting for the Advances made,
payments made or credited in respect thereof, and other transactions between
Agent and Borrowers, during such month.  The monthly statements shall be deemed
correct and binding upon Borrowers in the absence of manifest error and shall
constitute an account stated between Lenders and Borrowers unless Agent receives
a written statement of Borrowers' specific exceptions thereto within thirty (30)
days after such statement is received by Borrowing Agent.  The records of Agent
with respect to the loan account shall be conclusive evidence absent manifest
error of the amounts of Advances and other charges thereto and of payments
applicable thereto.

     2.8.     Letters of Credit.

          2.8.1.     Letter of Credit Facility.  Subject to the terms and
                     -------------------------
conditions hereof, Agent shall (a) issue or cause the issuance of Letters of
Credit ("Letters of Credit") on behalf of any Borrower; provided, however, that
                                                        --------  -------
Agent will not be required to issue or cause to be issued any Letters of Credit
to the extent that the face amount of such Letters of Credit would then cause
the sum of (i) the outstanding Revolving Advances plus (ii) outstanding Letters
                                                  ----
of Credit to exceed the lesser of (x) the Maximum Revolving Advance Amount or
(y) the Formula Amount.  The maximum amount of outstanding Letters of Credit
shall not exceed $2,500,000 in the aggregate at any time.  All disbursements or
payments related to Letters of Credit shall be deemed to be Domestic Rate Loans
consisting of Revolving Advances and shall bear interest at the applicable
Revolving Interest Rate for Domestic Rate Loans; Letters of Credit that have not
been drawn upon shall not bear interest.

          2.8.2.     Issuance of Letters of Credit.
                     -----------------------------

          (a)     Borrowing Agent, on behalf of Borrowers, may request Agent to
issue or cause the issuance of a Letter of Credit by delivering to Agent at the
Payment Office, Agent's form of Letter of Credit Application (the "Letter of
Credit Application") completed to the satisfaction of Agent at least three (3)
Business Days, or such shorter period as may be agreed to by Agent, in advance
of the proposed date of issuance; and, such other certificates, documents and
other papers and information as Agent may reasonably request.  Borrowing Agent,
on behalf of Borrowers, also has the right to give instructions and make
agreements with respect to any application, any applicable letter of credit and
security agreement, any applicable letter of credit reimbursement agreement
and/or any other applicable agreement, any letter of credit and the disposition
of documents, disposition of any unutilized funds, and to agree with Agent upon
any amendment, extension or renewal of any Letter of Credit.

          (b)     Each Letter of Credit shall, among other things, (i) provide
for the payment of sight drafts or acceptances of usance drafts when presented
for honor thereunder in accordance with the terms thereof and when accompanied
by the documents described therein and (ii) have an expiry date not later than
six (6) months after such Letter of Credit's date of issuance and in no event
later than the last day of the Term.  Each Letter of Credit shall be subject to
the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits (1993 Revision),
International Chamber of Commerce Publication No. 500, and any amendments or
revision thereof adhered to by the Issuer and, to the extent not inconsistent
therewith, the laws of the State of New York.  All standby Letters of Credit
shall be subject to the laws or rules designated in such standby Letter of
Credit, or if no laws or rules are designated, the International Standby
Practices (ISP98 - International Chamber of Commerce Publication Number 590)
(the "ISP98 Rules") and, as to matters not governed by the ISP98 Rules, the laws
      -----------
of the State of New York.

          (c)     Agent shall use its reasonable efforts to notify Lenders of
the request by Borrowing Agent for a Letter of Credit hereunder.

          2.8.3.     Requirements For Issuance of Letters of Credit; Indemnity.
                     ---------------------------------------------------------

          (a)     In connection with the issuance of any Letter of Credit,
Borrowers shall indemnify, save and hold Agent, each Lender and each Issuer
harmless from any loss, cost,

                                       25
<PAGE>
expense or liability, including, without limitation, payments made by Agent, any
Lender or any Issuer and expenses and reasonable attorneys' fees incurred by
Agent, any Lender or Issuer arising out of, or in connection with, any Letter of
Credit to be issued or created for any Borrower. Borrowers shall be bound by
Agent's or any Issuer's regulations and good faith interpretations of any Letter
of Credit issued or created for Borrowers' Account, although this interpretation
may be different from its own; and, neither Agent, nor any Lender, nor any
Issuer nor any of their correspondents shall be liable for any error,
negligence, or mistakes, whether of omission or commission, in following
Borrowing Agent's or any Borrower's instructions or those contained in any
Letter of Credit or of any modifications, amendments or supplements thereto or
in issuing or paying any Letter of Credit, except for Agent's, any Lender's, any
Issuer's or such correspondents' willful misconduct.

          (b)     Borrowing Agent shall authorize and direct any Issuer to name
the applicable Borrower as the "Applicant" or "Account Party" of each Letter of
Credit.  If Agent is not the Issuer of any Letter of Credit, Borrowing Agent
shall authorize and direct the Issuer to deliver to Agent all instruments,
documents, and other writings and property received by the Issuer pursuant to
the Letter of Credit and to accept and rely upon Agent's instructions and
agreements with respect to all matters arising in connection with the Letter of
Credit, the application therefor or any acceptance therefor.

          (c)     In connection with all Letters of Credit issued or caused to
be issued by Agent under this Agreement, each Borrower hereby appoints Agent, or
its designee, as its attorney, with full power and authority (i) to sign and/or
endorse such Borrower's name upon any warehouse or other receipts, letter of
credit applications and acceptances; (ii) to sign such Borrower's name on bills
of lading; (iii) to clear Inventory through the United States of America Customs
Department ("Customs") in the name of such Borrower or Agent or Agent's
designee, and to sign and deliver to Customs officials powers of attorney in the
name of such Borrower for such purpose; and (iv) to complete in such Borrower's
name or Agent's, or in the name of Agent's designee, any order, sale or
transaction, obtain the necessary documents in connection therewith, and collect
the proceeds thereof.  Neither Agent nor its attorneys will be liable for any
acts or omissions nor for any error of judgment or mistakes of fact or law,
except for Agent's or its attorney's willful misconduct.  This power, being
coupled with an interest, is irrevocable as long as any Letters of Credit remain
outstanding.

          2.8.4.     Disbursements, Reimbursement.
                     ----------------------------

          (a)     Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each
Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to,
purchase from the Agent a participation in such Letter of Credit and each
drawing thereunder in an amount equal to such Lender's Commitment Percentages of
the maximum amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit and the
amount of such drawing, respectively.

          (b)     In the event of any request for a drawing under a Letter of
Credit by the beneficiary or transferee thereof, the Agent will promptly notify
Borrowers.  Provided that it shall have received such notice, Borrowers shall
reimburse (such obligation to reimburse the Agent shall sometimes be referred to
as a "Reimbursement Obligation") the Agent prior to 12:00

                                       26
<PAGE>
noon, New York time on each date that an amount is paid by the Agent under any
Letter of Credit (each such date, a "Drawing Date") in an amount equal to the
amount so paid by the Agent. In the event the Borrower fails to reimburse the
Agent for the full amount of any drawing under any Letter of Credit by 12:00
noon, New York time, on the Drawing Date, the Agent will promptly notify each
Lender thereof, and Borrowers shall be deemed to have requested that a Domestic
Rate Loan be made by the Lenders to be disbursed on the Drawing Date under such
Letter of Credit, subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the lesser
of Maximum Revolving Advance Amount or the Formula Amount and subject to Section
8.2. Any notice given by the Agent pursuant to this Section 2.8.4(b) may be oral
if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate
confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such
notice.

          (c)     Each Lender shall upon any notice pursuant to Section 2.8.4(b)
make available to the Agent an amount in immediately available funds equal to
its Commitment Percentage of the amount of the drawing, whereupon the
participating Lenders shall (subject to Section 2.8.4(d)) each be deemed to have
made a Domestic Rate Loan to Borrowers in that amount.  If any Lender so
notified fails to make available to the Agent the amount of such Lender's
Commitment Percentage of such amount by no later than 2:00 p.m., New York time
on the Drawing Date, then interest shall accrue on such Lender's obligation to
make such payment, from the Drawing Date to the date on which such Lender makes
such payment (i) at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate during the
first three days following the Drawing Date and (ii) at a rate per annum equal
to the rate applicable to Domestic Rate Loans on and after the fourth day
following the Drawing Date.  The Agent will promptly give notice of the
occurrence of the Drawing Date, but failure of the Agent to give any such notice
on the Drawing Date or in sufficient time to enable any Lender to effect such
payment on such date shall not relieve such Lender from its obligation under
this Section 2.8.4(c), provided that such Lender shall not be obligated to pay
interest as provided in Section 2.8.4 (c) (i) and (ii) until and commencing from
the date of receipt of notice from Agent of a drawing.  Each Lender's
participation commitment shall continue until the last to occur of any of the
following events:  (A) Agent ceases to be obligated to issue or cause to be
issued Letters of Credit hereunder; (B) no Letter of Credit issued or created
hereunder remains outstanding and uncancelled or (C) all Persons (other than the
applicable Borrower) have been fully reimbursed for all payments made under or
relating to Letters of Credit.

          (d)     With respect to any unreimbursed drawing that is not converted
into a Domestic Rate Loan to Borrowers in whole or in part as contemplated by
Section 2.8.4(b), because of the Borrowers' failure to satisfy the conditions
set forth in Section 8.2 other than any notice requirements or for any other
reason, Borrowers shall be deemed to have incurred from the Agent a borrowing
(each a "Letter of Credit Borrowing") in the amount of such drawing. Such Letter
of Credit Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest)
and shall bear interest at the rate per annum applicable to a Domestic Rate
Loan.  Each Lender's payment to the Agent pursuant to Section 2.8.4(c) shall be
deemed to be a payment in respect of its participation in such Letter of Credit
Borrowing and shall constitute a "Participation Advance" from such Lender in
satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 2.8.4.

          2.8.5.     Repayment of Participation Advances.
                     -----------------------------------

          (a)     Upon (and only upon) receipt by the Agent for its account of
immediately available funds from Borrowers (i) in reimbursement of any payment
made by the Agent under the Letter of Credit with respect to which any Lender
has made a Participation Advance to the Agent, or (ii) in payment of interest on
such a payment made by the Agent under such a Letter of Credit, the Agent will
pay to each Lender, in the same funds as those received by the Agent, the amount
of such Lender's Commitment Percentage of such funds, except the Agent shall
retain the amount of the Commitment Percentage of such funds of any Lender that
did not make a Participation Advance in respect of such payment by Agent.

          (b)     If the Agent is required at any time to return to any
Borrower, or to a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian, or any official in
any insolvency proceeding, any portion of the payments made by any Borrower to
the Agent pursuant to Section 2.8.5(a) in reimbursement of a payment made under
the Letter of Credit or interest or fee thereon, each Lender shall, on demand of
the Agent, forthwith return to the Agent the amount of its Commitment Percentage
of any amounts so returned by the Agent.

          2.8.6.     Documentation.  Each Borrower agrees to be bound by the
                     -------------
terms of the Letter of Credit Application and the Agent's written regulations
and customary practices relating to letters of credit, though the Agent's
interpretation of such regulations and practices may be different from such
Borrower's own.  In the event of a conflict between the Letter of Credit
Application and this Agreement, this Agreement shall govern.  It is understood
and agreed that, except in the case of gross negligence or willful misconduct,
the Agent shall not be liable for any error, negligence and/or mistakes, whether
of omission or commission, in following any Borrower's instructions or those
contained in the Letters of Credit or any modifications, amendments or
supplements thereto.

          2.8.7.     Determination to Honor Drawing Request.  In determining
                     --------------------------------------
whether to honor any request for drawing under any Letter of Credit by the
beneficiary thereof, the Agent shall be responsible only to determine that the
documents and certificates required to be delivered under such Letter of Credit
have been delivered and that they comply on their face with the requirements of
such Letter of Credit.

          2.8.8.     Nature of Participation and Reimbursement Obligations.
                     -----------------------------------------------------
Each Lender's obligation in accordance with this Agreement to make the Revolving
Advances or Participation Advances as a result of a drawing under a Letter of
Credit, and the obligations of the Borrowers to reimburse the Agent upon a draw
under a Letter of Credit, shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and
shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.8.8
under all circumstances, including the following circumstances:

               (i)  any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other
right which such Lender may have against the Agent, Borrowers or any other
Person for any reason whatsoever;

               (ii) the failure of any Borrower or any other Person to
comply, in

                                       28
<PAGE>
connection with a Letter of Credit Borrowing, with the conditions set forth in
this Agreement for the making of a Revolving Advance, it being acknowledged that
such conditions are not required for the making of a Letter of Credit Borrowing
and the obligation of the Lenders to make Participation Advances under Section
2.8.4;

                    (iii) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter
of Credit;

                    (iv) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other
right which any Borrower or any Lender may have at any time against a
beneficiary or any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Persons for whom
any such transferee may be acting), the Agent or any Lender or any other Person,
whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated herein
or any unrelated transaction (including any underlying transaction between any
Borrower or Subsidiaries of a Borrower and the beneficiary for which any Letter
of Credit was procured);

                    (v)  any draft, demand, certificate or other document
presented under any Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid
or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or
inaccurate in any respect, even if the Agent has been notified thereof;

                    (vi) payment by the Agent under any Letter of Credit against
presentation of a demand, draft or certificate or other document which does not
comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit other than as a result of the
gross (not mere) negligence or willful misconduct of Agent;

                    (vii) any Material Adverse Effect on any Borrower or any
Guarantor;

                    (viii) any breach of this Agreement or any Other Document by
any party thereto;

                    (ix) the occurrence or continuance of an insolvency
proceeding with respect to any Borrower or any Guarantor;

                    (x)  the fact that a Default or Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing;

                    (xi) the fact that the Term shall have expired or this
Agreement or the Obligations hereunder shall have been terminated; and

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

          2.8.9.     Liability for Acts and Omissions.  As between any Borrower
                     --------------------------------
and the Agent and Lenders, such Borrower assumes all risks of the acts and
omissions of, or misuse of the Letters of Credit by, the respective
beneficiaries of such Letters of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of
the respective foregoing, the Agent shall not be responsible for: (i) the

                                       29
<PAGE>
form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any
document submitted by any party in connection with the application for an
issuance of any such Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in
any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged
(even if the Agent shall have been notified thereof); (ii) the validity or
sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to
transfer or assign any such 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 reason; (iii) the failure of the beneficiary of
any such Letter of Credit, or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may
be transferred, to comply fully with any conditions required in order to draw
upon such Letter of Credit or any other claim of any Borrower against any
beneficiary of such Letter of Credit, or any such transferee, or any dispute
between or among any Borrower and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any
such transferee; (iv) 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; (v) errors in interpretation of technical
terms; (vi) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document
required in order to make a drawing under any such Letter of Credit or of the
proceeds thereof; (vii) the misapplication by the beneficiary of any such Letter
of Credit of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit; or (viii)
any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of the Agent, including
any governmental acts, and none of the above shall affect or impair, or prevent
the vesting of, any of the Agent's rights or powers hereunder. Nothing in the
preceding sentence shall relieve the Agent from liability for the Agent's gross
negligence or willful misconduct in connection with actions or omissions
described in such clauses (i) through (viii) of such sentence.

          In furtherance and extension and not in limitation of the specific
provisions set forth above, any action taken or omitted by the Agent under or in
connection with the Letters of Credit issued by it or any documents and
certificates delivered thereunder, if taken or omitted in good faith, shall not
put the Agent under any resulting liability to any Borrower or any Lender.

     2.9.     Additional Payments.  Any sums expended by Agent or any Lender due
              -------------------
to any Borrower's failure to perform or comply with its obligations under this
Agreement or any Other Document including, without limitation, any Borrower's
obligations under Sections 4.2, 4.4, 4.12, 4.13, 4.14 and 6.1 hereof, may be
charged to Borrowers' Account as a Revolving Advance and added to the
Obligations.

     2.10.     Manner of Borrowing and Payment.
               -------------------------------

          (a)     Each borrowing of Revolving Advances shall be advanced
according to the applicable Commitment Percentages of Lenders.

          (b)     Each payment (including each prepayment) by Borrowers on
account of the principal of and interest on the Revolving Advances, shall be
applied to the Revolving Advances pro rata according to the applicable
Commitment Percentages of Lenders. Except as expressly provided herein, all
payments (including prepayments) to be made by any Borrower on account of
principal, interest and fees shall be made without set off or counterclaim and
shall be made to Agent on behalf of the Lenders to the Payment Office, in each
case on or prior to 1:00 P.M., New York time, in Dollars and in immediately
available funds.

                                       30
<PAGE>
          (c)   (i)     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
Sections 2.10(a) and (b) hereof, commencing with the first Business Day
following the Closing Date, each borrowing of Revolving Advances shall be
advanced by Agent and each payment by any Borrower on account of Revolving
Advances shall be applied first to those Revolving Advances advanced by Agent.
On or before 1:00 P.M., New York time, on each Settlement Date commencing with
the first Settlement Date following the Closing Date, Agent and Lenders shall
make certain payments as follows: (I) if the aggregate amount of new Revolving
Advances made by Agent during the preceding Week (if any) exceeds the aggregate
amount of repayments applied to outstanding Revolving Advances during such
preceding Week, then each Lender shall provide Agent with funds in an amount
equal to its applicable Commitment Percentage of the difference between (w) such
Revolving Advances and (x) such repayments and (II) if the aggregate amount of
repayments applied to outstanding Revolving Advances during such Week exceeds
the aggregate amount of new Revolving Advances made during such Week, then Agent
shall provide each Lender with funds in an amount equal to its applicable
Commitment Percentage of the difference between (y) such repayments and (z) such
Revolving Advances.

          (ii)     Each Lender shall be entitled to earn interest at the
     applicable Revolving Interest Rate on outstanding Advances which it has
     funded.

          (iii)     Promptly following each Settlement Date, Agent shall submit
     to each Lender a certificate with respect to payments received and Advances
     made during the Week immediately preceding such Settlement Date. Such
     certificate of Agent shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

          (d)     If any Lender or Participant (a "benefitted Lender") shall at
any time receive any payment of all or part of its Advances, or interest
thereon, or receive any Collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or
involuntarily or by set-off) in a greater proportion than any such payment to
and Collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of such other
Lender's Advances, or interest thereon, and such greater proportionate payment
or receipt of Collateral is not expressly permitted hereunder, such benefitted
Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders a participation in such
portion of each such other Lender's Advances, or shall provide such other Lender
with the benefits of any such Collateral, or the proceeds thereof, as shall be
necessary to cause such benefitted Lender to share the excess payment or
benefits of such Collateral or proceeds ratably with each of the other Lenders;
provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits
--------  -------
is thereafter recovered from such benefitted Lender, such purchase shall be
rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such
recovery, but without interest.  Each Lender so purchasing a portion of another
Lender's Advances may exercise all rights of payment (including, without
limitation, rights of set-off) with respect to such portion as fully as if such
Lender were the direct holder of such portion.

          (e)     Unless Agent shall have been notified by telephone, confirmed
in writing, by any Lender that such Lender will not make the amount which would
constitute its applicable Commitment Percentage of the Advances available to
Agent, Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) assume that such Lender shall
make such amount available to Agent on the next

                                       31
<PAGE>
Settlement Date and, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to
Borrowers a corresponding amount. Agent will promptly notify Borrowers of its
receipt of any such notice from a Lender. If such amount is made available to
Agent on a date after such next Settlement Date, such Lender shall pay to Agent
on demand an amount equal to the product of (i) the daily average Federal Funds
Rate (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days) during such period as quoted
by Agent, times (ii) such amount, times (iii) the number of days from and
including such Settlement Date to the date on which such amount becomes
immediately available to Agent. A certificate of Agent submitted to any Lender
with respect to any amounts owing under this paragraph (e) shall be conclusive,
in the absence of manifest error. If such amount is not in fact made available
to Agent by such Lender within three (3) Business Days after such Settlement
Date, Agent shall be entitled to recover such an amount, with interest thereon
at the rate per annum then applicable to such Revolving Advances hereunder, on
demand from Borrowers; provided, however, that Agent's right to such recovery
                       --------  -------
shall not prejudice or otherwise adversely affect Borrowers' rights (if any)
against such Lender.

     2.11.   Mandatory Prepayments.
             ---------------------

          Subject to Section 4.3 hereof, when any Borrower sells or otherwise
disposes of any Collateral other than Inventory in the ordinary course of
business, Borrowers shall repay the Advances in an amount equal to the net
proceeds of such sale (i.e., gross proceeds less the reasonable costs of such
sales or other dispositions), such repayments to be made promptly but in no
event more than one (1) Business Day following receipt of such net proceeds, and
until the date of payment, such proceeds shall be held in trust for Agent.  The
foregoing shall not be deemed to be implied consent to any such sale otherwise
prohibited by the terms and conditions hereof.  Such repayments shall be applied
to the outstanding Advances in such order as Agent may determine, subject to
Borrower's ability to reborrow Revolving Advances in accordance with the terms
hereof.

     2.12.   Use of Proceeds.  Borrowers shall apply the proceeds of Advances to
             ---------------
(i) fund in part the acquisition of RHM under the Acquisition Agreement, (ii)
repay existing indebtedness owed to PNC, (iii) pay fees and expenses relating to
the Transactions, and (iv) to provide for their working capital needs.

     2.13.   Defaulting Lender.
             -----------------

          (a)     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in
the event any Lender (x) has refused (which refusal constitutes a breach by such
Lender of its obligations under this Agreement) to make available its portion of
any Advance or (y) notifies either Agent or Borrowing Agent that it does not
intend to make available its portion of any Advance (if the actual refusal would
constitute a breach by such Lender of its obligations under this Agreement)
(each, a "Lender Default"), all rights and obligations hereunder of such Lender
(a "Defaulting Lender") as to which a Lender Default is in effect and of the
other parties hereto shall be modified to the extent of the express provisions
of this Section 2.13 while such Lender Default remains in effect.

          (b)     Advances shall be incurred pro rata from Lenders (the
"Non-Defaulting

                                       32
<PAGE>
Lenders") which are not Defaulting Lenders based on their respective Commitment
Percentages, and no Commitment Percentage of any Lender or any pro rata share of
any Advances required to be advanced by any Lender shall be increased as a
result of such Lender Default. Amounts received in respect of principal of any
type of Advances shall be applied to reduce the applicable Advances of each
Lender pro rata based on the aggregate of the outstanding Advances of that type
of all Lenders at the time of such application; provided, that, such amount
shall not be applied to any Advances of a Defaulting Lender at any time when,
and to the extent that, the aggregate amount of Advances of any Non-Defaulting
Lender exceeds such Non-Defaulting Lender's Commitment Percentage of all
Advances then outstanding.

          (c)     A Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to give instructions
to Agent or to approve, disapprove, consent to or vote on any matters relating
to this Agreement and the Other Documents.  All amendments, waivers and other
modifications of this Agreement and the Other Documents may be made without
regard to a Defaulting Lender and, for purposes of the definition of "Required
Lenders", a Defaulting Lender shall be deemed not to be a Lender and not to have
Advances outstanding.

          (d)     Other than as expressly set forth in this Section 2.13, the
rights and obligations of a Defaulting Lender (including the obligation to
indemnify Agent) and the other parties hereto shall remain unchanged.  Nothing
in this Section 2.13 shall be deemed to release any Defaulting Lender from its
obligations under this Agreement and the Other Documents, shall alter such
obligations, shall operate as a waiver of any default by such Defaulting Lender
hereunder, or shall prejudice any rights which any Borrower, Agent or any Lender
may have against any Defaulting Lender as a result of any default by such
Defaulting Lender hereunder.

          (e)     In the event a Defaulting Lender retroactively cures to the
satisfaction of Agent the breach which caused a Lender to become a Defaulting
Lender, such Defaulting Lender shall no longer be a Defaulting Lender and shall
be treated as a Lender under this Agreement.

III.  INTEREST AND FEES.
      -----------------

     3.1.     Interest. Interest on Advances shall be payable in arrears on the
              --------
first day of each month with respect to Domestic Rate Loans and, with respect to
Eurodollar Rate Loans, at the end of each Interest Period.  Interest charges
shall be computed on the actual principal amount of Advances outstanding during
the month at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Revolving Interest Rate.
Whenever, subsequent to the date of this Agreement, the Alternate Base Rate is
increased or decreased, the applicable Revolving Interest Rate for Domestic Rate
Loans shall be similarly changed without notice or demand of any kind by an
amount equal to the amount of such change in the Alternate Base Rate during the
time such change or changes remain in effect.  The Eurodollar Rate shall be
adjusted with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans without notice or demand of any
kind on the effective date of any change in the Reserve Percentage as of such
effective date.  Upon and after the occurrence of an Event of Default, and
during the continuation thereof, the Obligations may, at Agent's option, and
shall, at the direction of Required Lenders, bear interest at the applicable
Revolving Interest Rate for Domestic Loans plus two percent (2%) per annum (the
"Default Rate").

                                       33
<PAGE>
     3.2.   Letter of Credit Fees.
            ---------------------

          (a)     Borrowers shall pay (x) to Agent, for the benefit of Lenders,
fees for each Letter of Credit for the period from and excluding the date of
issuance of same to and including the date of expiration or termination, equal
to the average daily face amount of each outstanding Letter of Credit multiplied
by the difference of (i) the then Applicable Margin for Eurodollar Rate Loans
per annum minus (ii) .25%, such fees to be calculated on the basis of a 360-day
year for the actual number of days elapsed and to be payable monthly in arrears
on the first day of each month and on the last day of the Term and (y) to the
Issuer, fees for each Letter of Credit for the period from and excluding the
date of issuance of same to and including the date of expiration or termination,
equal to the average daily face amount of each outstanding Letter of Credit
multiplied by .25%, such fees to be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year
for the actual number of days elapsed and to be payable monthly in arrears on
the first day of each month and on the last day of the Term and any and all fees
and expenses as agreed upon by the Issuer and the Borrowing Agent in connection
with any Letter of Credit, including, without limitation, in connection with the
opening, amendment or renewal of any such Letter of Credit and any acceptances
created thereunder and shall reimburse Agent for any and all fees and expenses,
if any, paid by Agent to the Issuer and (z) to the Agent for the Agent's sole
account the Agent's then in effect customary fees and administrative expenses
payable with respect to Letters of Credit as the Agent may generally charge or
incur from time to time in connection with the issuance, maintenance,
modification (if any), assignment or transfer (if any), negotiation and
administration of Letters of Credit (all of the foregoing fees, the "Letter of
Credit Fees").  All such charges shall be deemed earned in full on the date when
the same are due and payable hereunder and shall not be subject to rebate or
proration upon the termination of this Agreement for any reason.  Any such
charge in effect at the time of a particular transaction shall be the charge for
that transaction, notwithstanding any subsequent change in the Issuer's
prevailing charges for that type of transaction.  All Letter of Credit Fees
payable hereunder shall be deemed earned in full on the date when the same are
due and payable hereunder and shall not be subject to rebate or proration upon
the termination of this Agreement for any reason.  Upon and after the occurrence
of an Event of Default, and during the continuation thereof, the Letter of
Credit Fees may, at Agent's option, and shall, at the direction of Required
Lenders, be increased by an additional two percent (2%) per annum.

          On demand, Borrowers will cause cash to be deposited and maintained in
an account with Agent, as cash collateral, in an amount equal to one hundred and
five percent (105%) of the outstanding Letters of Credit, and each Borrower
hereby irrevocably authorizes Agent, in its discretion, on such Borrower's
behalf and in such Borrower's name, to open such an account and to make and
maintain deposits therein, or in an account opened by such Borrower, in the
amounts required hereunder, out of the proceeds of Receivables or other
Collateral or out of any other funds of such Borrower coming into any Lender's
possession at any time.  Agent will invest such cash collateral (less applicable
reserves) in such short-term money-market items as to which Agent and such
Borrower mutually agree and the net return on such investments shall be credited
to such account and constitute additional cash collateral.  No Borrower may
withdraw amounts credited to any such account except upon payment and
performance in full of all Obligations and termination of this Agreement.

                                       34
<PAGE>
     3.3.   Facility Fee.  If, for any fiscal quarter during the Term, the
            ------------
average daily unpaid balance of the Revolving Advances for each day of such
fiscal quarter does not equal the Maximum Revolving Advance Amount, then
Borrowers shall pay to Agent for the ratable benefit of Lenders a fee at a rate
equal to one quarter of one percent (.25%) per annum on the amount by which the
Maximum Revolving Advance Amount exceeds such average daily unpaid balance.
Such fee shall be payable to Agent in arrears on the first day of each fiscal
quarter with respect to the immediately preceding fiscal quarter.

     3.4.   Intentionally Omitted.
            ---------------------

     3.5.   Computation of Interest and Fees.  Interest and fees hereunder shall
            --------------------------------
be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and for the actual number of days
elapsed.  If any payment to be made hereunder becomes due and payable on a day
other than a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be extended to the next
succeeding Business Day and interest thereon shall be payable at the applicable
Revolving Interest Rate for Domestic Rate Loans during such extension.

     3.6.   Maximum Charges.  In no event whatsoever shall interest and other
            ---------------
charges charged hereunder exceed the highest rate permissible under law. In the
event interest and other charges as computed hereunder would otherwise exceed
the highest rate permitted under law, such excess amount shall be first applied
to any unpaid principal balance owed by Borrowers, and if the then remaining
excess amount is greater than the previously unpaid principal balance, Lenders
shall promptly refund such excess amount to Borrowers and the provisions hereof
shall be deemed amended to provide for such permissible rate.

     3.7.   Increased Costs.  In the event that any applicable law, treaty or
            ---------------
governmental regulation, or any change therein or in the interpretation or
application thereof, or compliance by any Lender (for purposes of this Section
3.7, the term "Lender" shall include Agent or any Lender and any corporation or
bank controlling Agent or any Lender) and the office or branch where Agent or
any Lender (as so defined) makes or maintains any Eurodollar Rate Loans with any
request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central
bank or other financial, monetary or other authority, shall:

          (a)     subject Agent or any Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever
with respect to this Agreement or any Other Document or change the basis of
taxation of payments to Agent or any Lender of principal, fees, interest or any
other amount payable hereunder or under any Other Documents (except for changes
in the rate of tax on the overall net income of Agent or any Lender by the
jurisdiction in which it maintains its principal office);

          (b)     impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special
deposit, assessment or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits
in or for the account of, advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, any
office of Agent or any Lender, including (without limitation) pursuant to
Regulation D of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System; or

                                       35
<PAGE>
          (c)     impose on Agent or any Lender or the London interbank
Eurodollar market any other condition with respect to this Agreement or any
Other Document;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Agent or any
Lender of making, renewing or maintaining its Advances hereunder by an amount
that Agent or such Lender deems to be material or to reduce the amount of any
payment (whether of principal, interest or otherwise) in respect of any of the
Advances by an amount that Agent or such Lender deems to be material, then, in
any case Borrowers shall promptly pay Agent or such Lender, upon its demand,
such additional amount as will compensate Agent or such Lender for such
additional cost or such reduction, as the case may be, provided that the
foregoing shall not apply to increased costs which are reflected in the
Eurodollar Rate.  Agent or such Lender shall certify the amount of such
additional cost or reduced amount to Borrowers, and such certification shall be
conclusive absent manifest error.

     3.8.   Basis For Determining Interest Rate Inadequate or Unfair.  In the
            --------------------------------------------------------
event that Agent or any Lender shall have determined that:

          (a)     reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurodollar
Rate applicable pursuant to Section 2.2 hereof for any Interest Period; or

          (b)     Dollar deposits in the relevant amount and for the relevant
maturity are not available in the London interbank Eurodollar market, with
respect to an outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loan, a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan,
or a proposed conversion of a Domestic Rate Loan into a Eurodollar Rate Loan,

then Agent shall give Borrowing Agent prompt written, telephonic or telegraphic
notice of such determination.  If such notice is given, (i) any such requested
Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be made as a Domestic Rate Loan, unless Borrowing
Agent shall notify Agent no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) two (2)
Business Days prior to the date of such proposed borrowing, that its request for
such borrowing shall be cancelled or made as an unaffected type of Eurodollar
Rate Loan, (ii) any Domestic Rate Loan or Eurodollar Rate Loan which was to have
been converted to an affected type of Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be continued as
or converted into a Domestic Rate Loan, or, if Borrowing Agent shall notify
Agent, no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) two (2) Business Days prior
to the proposed conversion, shall be maintained as an unaffected type of
Eurodollar Rate Loan, and (iii) any outstanding affected Eurodollar Rate Loans
shall be converted into a Domestic Rate Loan, or, if Borrowing Agent shall
notify Agent, no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) two (2) Business Days
prior to the last Business Day of the then current Interest Period applicable to
such affected Eurodollar Rate Loan, shall be converted into an unaffected type
of Eurodollar Rate Loan, on the last Business Day of the then current Interest
Period for such affected Eurodollar Rate Loans.  Until such notice has been
withdrawn, Lenders shall have no obligation to make an affected type of
Eurodollar Rate Loan or maintain outstanding affected Eurodollar Rate Loans and
no Borrower shall have the right to convert a Domestic Rate Loan or an
unaffected type of Eurodollar Rate Loan into an affected type of Eurodollar Rate
Loan.

     3.9.  Capital Adequacy.
           ----------------

                                       36
<PAGE>
          (a)     In the event that Agent or any Lender shall have determined
that any applicable law, rule, regulation or guideline regarding capital
adequacy, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or
administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable
agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance
by Agent or any Lender (for purposes of this Section 3.9, the term "Lender"
shall include Agent or any Lender and any corporation or bank controlling Agent
or any Lender) and the office or branch where Agent or any Lender (as so
defined) makes or maintains any Eurodollar Rate Loans with any request or
directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of
any such authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the
effect of reducing the rate of return on Agent or any Lender's capital as a
consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which Agent or
such Lender could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance
(taking into consideration Agent's and each Lender's policies with respect to
capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by Agent or any Lender to be material,
then, from time to time, Borrowers shall pay upon demand to Agent or such Lender
such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Agent or such Lender for
such reduction.  In determining such amount or amounts, Agent or such Lender may
use any reasonable averaging or attribution methods.  The protection of this
Section 3.9 shall be available to Agent and each Lender regardless of any
possible contention of invalidity or inapplicability with respect to the
applicable law, regulation or condition.

          (b)     A certificate of Agent or such Lender setting forth such
amount or amounts as shall be necessary to compensate Agent or such Lender with
respect to Section 3.9(a) hereof when delivered to Borrowers shall be conclusive
absent manifest error.

IV.     COLLATERAL:  GENERAL TERMS
        --------------------------

     4.1.     Security Interest in the Collateral.  To secure the prompt payment
              -----------------------------------
and performance to Agent and each Lender of the Obligations, each Borrower
hereby assigns, pledges and grants to Agent for its benefit and for the ratable
benefit of each Lender a continuing security interest in and to all of its
Collateral, whether now owned or existing or hereafter acquired or arising and
wheresoever located.  Each Borrower shall mark its books and records as may be
necessary or appropriate to evidence, protect and perfect Agent's security
interest and shall cause its financial statements to reflect such security
interest.  Each Borrower shall promptly provide Agent with written notice of all
commercial tort claims, such notice to contain the case title together with the
applicable court and a brief description of the claim(s).  Upon delivery of each
such notice, such Borrower shall be deemed to hereby grant to Agent a security
interest and lien in and to such commercial tort claims and all proceeds
thereof.

     4.2.     Perfection of Security Interest.  Each Borrower shall take all
              -------------------------------
action that may be necessary or desirable, or that Agent may request, so as at
all times to maintain the validity, perfection, enforceability and priority of
Agent's security interest in the Collateral or to enable Agent to protect,
exercise or enforce its rights hereunder and in the Collateral, including, but
not limited to, (i) immediately discharging all Liens other than Permitted
Encumbrances, (ii) obtaining landlords' or mortgagees' lien waivers for any
location where the book value of

                                       37
<PAGE>
Inventory located at such location is greater than $100,000 in the aggregate
(provided, however, that if Borrowers are unable to obtain any such waiver,
 --------  -------
Agent may take a six month rent reserve in the calculation of the Formula Amount
for each such location and Borrowers' failure to obtain such waiver shall not
constitute an Event of Default), (iii) delivering to Agent, endorsed or
accompanied by such instruments of assignment as Agent may specify, and stamping
or marking, in such manner as Agent may specify, any and all chattel paper,
instruments, letters of credits and advices thereof and documents evidencing or
forming a part of the Collateral, (iv) entering into warehousing, lockbox and
other custodial arrangements satisfactory to Agent, and (v) executing and
delivering financing statements, control agreements, instruments of pledge,
mortgages, notices and assignments, in each case in form and substance
satisfactory to Agent, relating to the creation, validity, perfection,
maintenance or continuation of Agent's security interest under the Uniform
Commercial Code or other applicable law. Agent is hereby authorized to file
financing statements signed by Agent instead of Borrower in accordance with the
Uniform Commercial Code as adopted in the State of New York from time to time.
By its signature hereto, each Borrower hereby authorizes Agent to file against
such Borrower, one or more financing, continuation, or amendment statements
pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code in form and substance satisfactory to
Agent (which statements may have a description of collateral which is broader
than that set forth herein). All charges, expenses and fees Agent may incur in
doing any of the foregoing, and any local taxes relating thereto, shall be
charged to Borrowers' Account as a Revolving Advance of a Domestic Rate Loan and
added to the Obligations, or, at Agent's option, shall be paid to Agent for the
ratable benefit of Lenders immediately upon demand.

     4.3.  Disposition of Collateral.  Each Borrower will safeguard and protect
           -------------------------

whether by sale, lease or otherwise except (a) the sale of Inventory in the
ordinary course of business and (b) the disposition or transfer of Equipment
during any fiscal year having an aggregate fair market value of not more than
$250,000 (other than Aircraft) and only to the extent that (i) the proceeds of
any such disposition are used to acquire replacement Equipment which is subject
to Agent's first priority security interest or (ii) the proceeds of which are
remitted to Agent to be applied pursuant to Section 2.11.

     4.4.  Preservation of Collateral.  Following the occurrence of a Default or
           --------------------------
Event of Default, in addition to the rights and remedies set forth in Section
11.1 hereof, Agent: (a) may at any time take such steps as Agent deems necessary
to protect Agent's interest in and to preserve the Collateral, including the
hiring of such security guards or the placing of other security protection
measures as Agent may deem appropriate; (b) may employ and maintain at any of
any Borrower's premises a custodian who shall have full authority to do all acts
necessary to protect Agent's interests in the Collateral; (c) may lease
warehouse facilities to which Agent may move all or part of the Collateral; (d)
may use any Borrower's owned or leased lifts, hoists, trucks and other
facilities or equipment for handling or removing the Collateral; and (e) shall
have, and is hereby granted, a right of ingress and egress to the places where
the Collateral is located, and may proceed over and through any of Borrower's
owned or leased property.  Each Borrower shall cooperate fully with all of
Agent's efforts to preserve the Collateral and will take such actions to
preserve the Collateral as Agent may direct.  All of Agent's expenses of
preserving the Collateral, including any expenses relating to the bonding of a
custodian, shall be charged to

                                       38
<PAGE>
Borrowers' Account as a Revolving Advance of a Domestic Rate Loan and added to
the Obligations.

     4.5.  Ownership of Collateral.  With respect to the Collateral, at the time
           -----------------------
the Collateral becomes subject to Agent's security interest:  (a) each Borrower
shall be the sole owner of and fully authorized and able to sell, transfer,
pledge and/or grant a first priority security interest in each and every item of
the its respective Collateral to Agent; and, except for Permitted Encumbrances
the Collateral shall be free and clear of all Liens and encumbrances whatsoever;
(b) each document and agreement executed by each Borrower or delivered to Agent
or any Lender in connection with this Agreement shall be true and correct in all
respects; (c) all signatures and endorsements of each Borrower that appear on
such documents and agreements shall be genuine and each Borrower shall have full
capacity to execute same; and (d) Schedule 4.5 sets forth each location at which
any Borrower has Equipment and Inventory and shall not be removed from such
locations without the prior written consent of Agent except with respect to (i)
the sale of Inventory in the ordinary course of business, (ii) transfers of
Equipment permitted by Section 4.3 and (iii) the relocation of Inventory and
                       -----------
Equipment to a location other than as set forth on Schedule 4.5, provided that
                                                   ------------
(A) the aggregate amount of such relocated Inventory shall not exceed at any one
time One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000.00) and (B) within thirty (30) days
of such relocation, Borrowers shall have delivered to Agent such UCC-1 financing
statements, landlord waivers and other documents as Agent may require to perfect
and protect its interests in such Inventory.

     4.6.  Defense of Agent's and Lenders' Interests.  Until (a) payment and
           -----------------------------------------
performance in full of all of the Obligations and (b) termination of this
Agreement, Agent's interests in the Collateral shall continue in full force and
effect.  Except as set forth in Section 4.3 hereof, during such period no
Borrower shall, without Agent's prior written consent, pledge, sell, assign,
transfer, create or suffer to exist a Lien upon or encumber or allow or suffer
to be encumbered in any way except for Permitted Encumbrances, any part of the
Collateral.  Each Borrower shall defend Agent's interests in the Collateral
against any and all Persons whatsoever.  At any time following demand by Agent
for payment of all Obligations, Agent shall have the right to take possession of
the indicia of the Collateral and the Collateral in whatever physical form
contained, including without limitation:  labels, stationery, documents,
instruments and advertising materials.  If Agent exercises this right to take
possession of the Collateral, Borrowers shall, upon demand, assemble it in the
best manner possible and make it available to Agent at a place reasonably
convenient to Agent.  In addition, with respect to all Collateral, Agent and
Lenders shall be entitled to all of the rights and remedies set forth herein and
further provided by the Uniform Commercial Code or other applicable law.  Each
Borrower shall, and Agent may, at its option, instruct all suppliers, carriers,
forwarders, warehousers or others receiving or holding cash, checks, Inventory,
documents or instruments in which Agent holds a security interest to deliver
same to Agent and/or subject to Agent's order and if they shall come into any
Borrower's possession, they, and each of them, shall be held by such Borrower in
trust as Agent's trustee, and such Borrower will immediately deliver them to
Agent in their original form together with any necessary endorsement.

     4.7.  Books and Records.  Each Borrower shall (a) keep proper books of
           -----------------
record and account in which full, true and correct entries will be made of all
dealings or transactions of or in

                                       39
<PAGE>
relation to its business and affairs; (b) set up on its books accruals with
respect to all taxes, assessments, charges, levies and claims; and (c) on a
reasonably current basis set up on its books, from its earnings, allowances
against doubtful Receivables, advances and investments and all other proper
accruals (including without limitation by reason of enumeration, accruals for
premiums, if any, due on required payments and accruals for depreciation,
obsolescence, or amortization of properties), which should be set aside from
such earnings in connection with its business. All determinations pursuant to
this subsection shall be made in accordance with, or as required by, GAAP
consistently applied in the opinion of such independent public accountant as
shall then be regularly engaged by Borrowers.

     4.8.  Financial Disclosure.  Each Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes
           --------------------
and directs all accountants and auditors employed by such Borrower at any time
during the Term to exhibit and deliver to Agent and each Lender copies of any of
any Borrower's financial statements, trial balances or other accounting records
of any sort in the accountant's or auditor's possession, and authorizes such
accountants to provide to Agent and each Lender any information such accountants
may have concerning such Borrower's financial status and business operations.
Each Borrower hereby authorizes all federal, state and municipal authorities to
furnish to Agent and each Lender copies of reports or examinations relating to
such Borrower, whether made by such Borrower or otherwise; however, Agent and
each Lender will attempt to obtain such information or materials directly from
such Borrower prior to obtaining such information or materials from such
accountants or such authorities.

     4.9.  Compliance with Laws.  Each Borrower shall comply with all acts,
           --------------------
rules, regulations and orders of any legislative, administrative or judicial
body or official applicable to its respective Collateral or any part thereof or
to the operation of such Borrower's business the non-compliance with which could
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  The assets of
Borrowers at all times shall be maintained in accordance with the requirements
of all insurance carriers which provide insurance with respect to the assets of
Borrowers so that such insurance shall remain in full force and effect.

     4.10.  Inspection of Premises.  At all reasonable times Agent and each
            ----------------------
Lender shall have full access to and the right to audit, check, inspect and make
abstracts and copies from each Borrower's books, records, audits, correspondence
and all other papers relating to the Collateral and the operation of each
Borrower's business.  Agent, any Lender and their agents may enter upon any of
each Borrower's premises at any time during business hours and at any other
reasonable time, and from time to time, for the purpose of inspecting the
Collateral and any and all records pertaining thereto and the operation of such
Borrower's business.

     4.11.  Insurance.  Each Borrower shall bear the full risk of any loss of
            ---------
any nature whatsoever with respect to the Collateral.  At each Borrower's own
cost and expense in amounts customary for companies engaged in businesses
similar to the Borrowers and with carriers reasonably acceptable to Agent, each
Borrower shall (a) keep all its insurable properties and properties in which
each Borrower has an interest insured against the hazards of fire, flood,
sprinkler leakage, those hazards covered by extended coverage insurance and such
other hazards, and for such amounts, as is customary in the case of companies
engaged in businesses similar to such Borrower's including, without limitation,
business interruption insurance; (b) maintain a

bond in such amounts as is customary in the case of companies engaged in
businesses similar to such Borrower insuring against larceny, embezzlement or
other criminal misappropriation of insured's officers and employees who may
either singly or jointly with others at any time have access to the assets or
funds of such Borrower either directly or through authority to draw upon such
funds or to direct generally the disposition of such assets; (c) maintain public
and product liability insurance against claims for personal injury, death or
property damage suffered by others; (d) maintain all such worker's compensation
or similar insurance as may be required under the laws of any state or
jurisdiction in which such Borrower is engaged in business; (e) furnish Agent
with (i) copies of all policies and evidence of the maintenance of such policies
by the renewal thereof at least thirty (30) days before any expiration date, and
(ii) appropriate loss payable endorsements in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to Agent, naming Agent as a co-insured and loss payee with respect
to the Collateral as its interests may appear with respect to all insurance
coverage referred to in clauses (a) and (c) above, and providing (A) that all
proceeds thereunder shall be payable to Agent (and jointly with Agent in the
case of Arch Air and Mercy so long as such proceeds are delivered directly to
Agent), (B) no such insurance shall be affected by any act or neglect of the
insured or owner of the property described in such policy, and (C) that such
policy and loss payable clauses may not be cancelled, amended or terminated
unless at least thirty (30) days' prior written notice is given to Agent. In the
event of any loss thereunder, the carriers named therein hereby are directed by
Agent and the applicable Borrower to make payment for such loss to Agent and not
to such Borrower and Agent jointly. If any insurance losses are paid by check,
draft or other instrument payable to any Borrower and Agent jointly, Agent may
endorse such Borrower's name thereon and do such other things as Agent may deem
advisable to reduce the same to cash. Agent is hereby authorized to adjust and
compromise claims under insurance coverage referred to in clauses (a) and (b)
above. All loss recoveries received by Agent upon any such insurance may be
applied to the Obligations in such order as Agent in its sole discretion shall
determine; provided, however, as long as no Default or Event of Default shall
have occurred, Agent shall permit Borrowers to use proceeds of insurance losses
up to One Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($150,000.00) in the aggregate during
any fiscal year of Borrowers to repair or replace the damaged Collateral. Any
surplus shall be paid by Agent to Borrowers or applied as may be otherwise
required by law.

     4.12.  Failure to Pay Insurance.  If any Borrower fails to obtain insurance
            ------------------------
as hereinabove provided, or to keep the same in force, Agent, if Agent so
elects, may obtain such insurance and pay the premium therefor on behalf of such
Borrower, and charge Borrowers' Account therefor as a Revolving Advance of a
Domestic Rate Loan and such expenses so paid shall be part of the Obligations.

     4.13.  Payment of Taxes.  Each Borrower will pay, when due, all taxes,
            ----------------
assessments and other Charges lawfully levied or assessed upon such Borrower or
any of the Collateral including, without limitation, real and personal property
taxes, assessments and charges and all franchise, income, employment, social
security benefits, withholding, and sales taxes.  If any tax by any governmental
authority is or may be imposed on or as a result of any transaction between any
Borrower and Agent or any Lender which Agent or any Lender may be required to
withhold or pay or if any taxes,

                                       41
<PAGE>
assessments, or other Charges remain unpaid after the date fixed for their
payment, or if any claim shall be made which, in Agent's or any Lender's
opinion, may possibly create a valid Lien on the Collateral, Agent may without
notice to Borrowers pay the taxes, assessments or other Charges and each
Borrower hereby indemnifies and holds Agent and each Lender harmless in respect
thereof. The amount of any payment by Agent under this Section 4.13 shall be
charged to Borrowers' Account as a Revolving Advance of a Domestic Rate Loan and
added to the Obligations and, until Borrowers shall furnish Agent with an
indemnity therefor (or supply Agent with evidence satisfactory to Agent that due
provision for the payment thereof has been made), Agent may hold without
interest any balance standing to Borrowers' credit and Agent shall retain its
security interest in any and all Collateral held by Agent.

     4.14.  Payment of Leasehold Obligations.  Each Borrower shall at all times
            --------------------------------
pay, when and as due (subject to any applicable grace period), its rental
obligations under all leases under which it is a tenant, and shall otherwise
comply, in all material respects, with all other terms of such leases and keep
them in full force and effect and, at Agent's request will provide evidence of
having done so.

     4.15.  Receivables.
            -----------

          (a)     Nature of Receivables.  Each of the Receivables shall be a
                  ---------------------
bona fide and valid account representing a bona fide indebtedness incurred by
the Customer therein named, for a fixed sum as set forth in the invoice relating
thereto (provided immaterial or unintentional invoice errors shall not be deemed
to be a breach hereof) with respect to an absolute sale or lease and delivery of
goods upon stated terms of a Borrower, or work, labor or services theretofore
rendered by a Borrower as of the date each Receivable is created.  Same shall be
due and owing in accordance with the applicable Borrower's standard terms of
sale without dispute, setoff or counterclaim except as may be reserved against
on Borrowers' financial statements or stated on the accounts receivable
schedules delivered by Borrowers to Agent.

          (b)     Solvency of Customers.  Each Customer, to the best of each
                  ---------------------
Borrower's knowledge, as of the date each Receivable is created, is and will be
solvent and able to pay all Receivables on which the Customer is obligated in
full when due or, with respect to such Customers of any Borrower who are not
solvent, such Borrower has set up on its books and in its financial records bad
debt reserves adequate to cover such Receivables to the extent determined not to
be collectible.

          (c)     Locations of Borrower.  Each Borrower's chief executive office
                  ---------------------
is located at the addresses set forth on Schedule 4.15(c) hereto.  Until written
                                         ----------------
notice is given to Agent by Borrowing Agent of any other office at which any
Borrower keeps its records pertaining to Receivables, all such records shall be
kept at such executive office.

          (d)     Collection of Receivables.  Until any Borrower's authority to
                  -------------------------
do so is terminated by Agent (which notice Agent may give at any time following
the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default or a Default
or when Agent in its sole discretion deems it to be in Lenders' best interest to
do so), each Borrower will, at such Borrower's sole cost and expense, but on
Agent's behalf and for Agent's account, collect as Agent's property and in trust
for Agent all amounts received on Receivables, and shall not commingle such
collections with any Borrower's funds or use the same except to pay Obligations.
Each Borrower shall, upon request, deliver to Agent, or deposit in the Blocked
Account, in original form and on the

                                       42
<PAGE>
date of receipt thereof, all checks, drafts, notes, money orders, acceptances,
cash and other evidences of Indebtedness.

          (e)     Notification of Assignment of Receivables.  At any time
                  -----------------------------------------
following the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default or a
Default, Agent shall have the right to send notice of the assignment of, and
Agent's security interest in, the Receivables to any and all Customers or any
third party holding or otherwise concerned with any of the Collateral.
Thereafter, so long as the Event of Default or Default is continuing, Agent
shall have the sole right to collect the Receivables, take possession of the
Collateral, or both.  Agent's actual collection expenses, including, but not
limited to, stationery and postage, telephone and telegraph, secretarial and
clerical expenses and the salaries of any collection personnel used for
collection, may be charged to Borrowers' Account and added to the Obligations.

          (f)     Power of Agent to Act on Borrowers' Behalf.  Agent shall have
                  ------------------------------------------
the right to receive, endorse, assign  and/or deliver in the name of Agent or
any Borrower any and all checks, drafts and other instruments for the payment of
money relating to the Receivables, and each Borrower hereby waives notice of
presentment, protest and non-payment of any instrument so endorsed.  Each
Borrower hereby constitutes Agent or Agent's designee as such Borrower's
attorney with power (i) to endorse such Borrower's name upon any notes,
acceptances, checks, drafts, money orders or other evidences of payment or
Collateral; (ii) to sign such Borrower's name on any invoice or bill of lading
relating to any of the Receivables, drafts against Customers, assignments and
verifications of Receivables; (iii) to send verifications of Receivables to any
Customer; (iv) to sign such Borrower's name on all financing statements or any
other documents or instruments deemed necessary or appropriate by Agent to
preserve, protect, or perfect Agent's interest in the Collateral and to file
same; (v) to demand payment of the Receivables; (vi) to enforce payment of the
Receivables by legal proceedings or otherwise; (vii) to exercise all of
Borrowers' rights and remedies with respect to the collection of the Receivables
and any other Collateral; (viii) to settle, adjust, compromise, extend or renew
the Receivables; (ix) to settle, adjust or compromise any legal proceedings
brought to collect Receivables; (x) to prepare, file and sign such Borrower's
name on a proof of claim in bankruptcy or similar document against any Customer;
(xi) to prepare, file and sign such Borrower's name on any notice of Lien,
assignment or satisfaction of Lien or similar document in connection with the
Receivables; and (xii) to do all other acts and things necessary to carry out
this Agreement.  All acts of said attorney or designee are hereby ratified and
approved, and said attorney or designee shall not be liable for any acts of
omission or commission nor for any error of judgment or mistake of fact or of
law, unless done maliciously or with gross (not mere) negligence; this power
being coupled with an interest is irrevocable while any of the Obligations
remain unpaid.  Agent shall have the right at any time to change the address for
delivery of mail addressed to any Borrower to such address as Agent may
designate and to receive, open and dispose of all mail addressed to any
Borrower.  Notwithstanding anything in this Section 4.15(f) to the contrary,
provided that no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and neither
Agent nor any Lender has a good faith belief that such action must be taken
immediately, Agent shall give Borrowers five (5) days notice (together with
copies of all relevant documents) prior to taking any of the actions referred to
in items (v), (vi), (viii) or (ix) above.

          (g)     No Liability.  Neither Agent nor any Lender shall, under any
                  ------------

                                       43
<PAGE>
circumstances or in any event whatsoever, have any liability for any error or
omission or delay of any kind occurring in the settlement, collection or payment
of any of the Receivables or any instrument received in payment thereof, or for
any damage resulting therefrom.  Following the occurrence of an Event of Default
or Default, Agent may, without notice or consent from any Borrower, sue upon or
otherwise collect, extend the time of payment of, compromise or settle for cash,
credit or upon any terms any of the Receivables or any other securities,
instruments or insurance applicable thereto and/or release any obligor thereof.
Agent is authorized and empowered to accept following the occurrence of an Event
of Default or Default the return of the goods represented by any of the
Receivables, without notice to or consent by any Borrower, all without
discharging or in any way affecting any Borrower's liability hereunder.  At such
times as no Events of Default or Defaults are continuing, Agent will not
exercise any of the actions set forth in the preceding two sentences other than
those actions already commenced during the continuance of any Events of Default
or Default.

          (h)     Establishment of a Lockbox Account, Dominion Account.  All
                  ----------------------------------------------------
proceeds of Collateral shall, at the direction of Agent, be deposited by
Borrowers into a lockbox account, dominion account or such other "blocked
account" ("Blocked Accounts") as Agent may require pursuant to an arrangement
with such bank as may be selected by Borrowers and be acceptable to Agent.
Borrowers shall issue to any such bank an irrevocable letter of instruction
directing said bank to transfer such funds so deposited to Agent, either to any
account maintained by Agent at said bank or by wire transfer to appropriate
account(s) of Agent.  All funds deposited in such Blocked Account shall
immediately become the property of Agent and Borrowers shall obtain the
agreement by such bank to waive any offset rights against the funds so
deposited.  Neither Agent nor any Lender assumes any responsibility for such
blocked account arrangement, including without limitation, any claim of accord
and satisfaction or release with respect to deposits accepted by any bank
thereunder.  Alternatively, Agent may establish depository accounts ("Depository
Accounts") in the name of Agent at a bank or banks for the deposit of such funds
and Borrowers shall deposit all proceeds of Collateral or cause same to be
deposited, in kind, in such Depository Accounts of Agent in lieu of depositing
same to the Blocked Accounts.

          (i)     Adjustments.  No Borrower will, without Agent's consent,
                  -----------
compromise or adjust any material amount of the Receivables (or extend the time
for payment thereof) or accept any material returns of merchandise or grant any
additional discounts, allowances or credits thereon except for those
compromises, adjustments, returns, discounts, credits and allowances as have
been heretofore customary in the business of such Borrower.

     4.16.  Inventory.  To the extent Inventory held for sale or lease has been
            ---------
produced by any Borrower, it has been and will be produced by such Borrower in
accordance with the Federal Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938, as amended, and
all rules, regulations and orders thereunder.

     4.17.  Maintenance of Equipment.  The Equipment shall be maintained in good
            ------------------------
operating condition and repair (reasonable wear and tear excepted) and all
necessary replacements of and repairs thereto shall be made so that the value
and operating efficiency of the Equipment shall be maintained and preserved.  No
Borrower shall use or operate the Equipment in violation of any law, statute,
ordinance, code, rule or regulation.

                                       44
<PAGE>
     4.18.  Exculpation of Liability.  Nothing herein contained shall be
            ------------------------
construed to constitute Agent or any Lender as any Borrower's agent for any
purpose whatsoever, nor shall Agent or any Lender be responsible or liable for
any shortage, discrepancy, damage, loss or destruction of any part of the
Collateral wherever the same may be located and regardless of the cause thereof.
Neither Agent nor any Lender, whether by anything herein or in any assignment or
otherwise, assume any of any Borrower's obligations under any contract or
agreement assigned to Agent or such Lender, and neither Agent nor any Lender
shall be responsible in any way for the performance by any Borrower of any of
the terms and conditions thereof.

     4.19.  Environmental Matters.  (a) Borrowers shall ensure that the Real
            ---------------------
Property remains in compliance with all Environmental Laws and they shall not
place or permit to be placed any Hazardous Substances on any Real Property
except as permitted by applicable law or appropriate governmental authorities.

          (b)     Borrowers shall establish and maintain a system to assure and
monitor continued compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws which system
shall include periodic reviews of such compliance.

          (c)     Borrowers shall (i) employ in connection with the use of the
Real Property appropriate technology necessary to maintain compliance with any
applicable Environmental Laws and (ii) dispose of any and all Hazardous Waste
generated at the Real Property only at facilities and with carriers that
maintain valid permits under RCRA and any other applicable Environmental Laws.
Borrowers shall use their best efforts to obtain certificates of disposal, such
as hazardous waste manifest receipts, from all treatment, transport, storage or
disposal facilities or operators employed by Borrowers in connection with the
transport or disposal of any Hazardous Waste generated at the Real Property.

          (d)     In the event any Borrower obtains, gives or receives notice of
any Release or threat of Release of a reportable quantity of any Hazardous
Substances at the Real Property (any such event being hereinafter referred to as
a "Hazardous Discharge") or receives any notice of violation, request for
information or notification that it is potentially responsible for investigation
or cleanup of environmental conditions at the Real Property, demand letter or
complaint, order, citation, or other written notice with regard to any Hazardous
Discharge or violation of Environmental Laws affecting the Real Property or any
Borrower's interest therein (any of the foregoing is referred to herein as an
"Environmental Complaint") from any Person, including any state agency
responsible in whole or in part for environmental matters in the state in which
the Real Property is located or the United States Environmental Protection
Agency (any such person or entity hereinafter the "Authority"), then Borrowing
Agent shall, within five (5) Business Days, give written notice of same to Agent
detailing facts and circumstances of which any Borrower is aware giving rise to
the Hazardous Discharge or Environmental Complaint.  Such information is to be
provided to allow Agent to protect its security interest in the Real Property
and the Collateral and is not intended to create nor shall it create any
obligation upon Agent or any Lender with respect thereto.

          (e)     Borrowers shall promptly forward to Agent copies of any
request for

                                       45
<PAGE>
information, notification of potential liability, demand letter relating to
potential responsibility with respect to the investigation or cleanup of
Hazardous Substances at any other site owned, operated or used by any Borrower
to dispose of Hazardous Substances and shall continue to forward copies of
correspondence between any Borrower and the Authority regarding such claims to
Agent until the claim is settled. Borrowers shall promptly forward to Agent
copies of all documents and reports concerning a Hazardous Discharge at the Real
Property that any Borrower is required to file under any Environmental Laws.
Such information is to be provided solely to allow Agent to protect Agent's
security interest in the Real Property and the Collateral.

          (f)     Borrowers shall respond promptly to any Hazardous Discharge or
Environmental Complaint and take all necessary action in order to safeguard the
health of any Person and to avoid subjecting the Collateral or Real Property to
any Lien.  If any Borrower shall fail to respond promptly to any Hazardous
Discharge or Environmental Complaint or any Borrower shall fail to comply with
any of the requirements of any Environmental Laws, Agent on behalf of Lenders
may, but without the obligation to do so, for the sole purpose of protecting
Agent's interest in Collateral:  (A) give such notices or (B) enter onto the
Real Property (or authorize third parties to enter onto the Real Property) and
take such actions as Agent (or such third parties as directed by Agent) deem
reasonably necessary or advisable, to clean up, remove, mitigate or otherwise
deal with any such Hazardous Discharge or Environmental Complaint.  All
reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Agent and Lenders (or such third
parties) in the exercise of any such rights, including any sums paid in
connection with any judicial or administrative investigation or proceedings,
fines and penalties, together with interest thereon from the date expended at
the Default Rate for Domestic Rate Loans constituting Revolving Advances shall
be paid upon demand by Borrowers, and until paid shall be added to and become a
part of the Obligations secured by the Liens created by the terms of this
Agreement or any other agreement between Agent, any Lender and any Borrower.

          (g)     If required by Agent as determined in Agent's reasonable
discretion, promptly upon the written request of Agent from time to time,
Borrowers shall provide Agent, at Borrowers' expense, with an environmental site
assessment or environmental audit report prepared by an environmental
engineering firm acceptable in the reasonable opinion of Agent, to assess with a
reasonable degree of certainty the existence of a Hazardous Discharge and the
potential costs in connection with abatement, cleanup and removal of any
Hazardous Substances found on, under, at or within the Real Property.  Any
report or investigation of such Hazardous Discharge proposed and acceptable to
an appropriate Authority that is charged to oversee the clean-up of such
Hazardous Discharge shall be acceptable to Agent.  Agent shall have the right to
require Borrowers to post a bond, letter of credit or other security reasonably
satisfactory to Agent to secure payment of these costs and expenses.

          (h)     Borrowers shall defend and indemnify Agent and Lenders and
hold Agent, Lenders and their respective employees, agents, directors and
officers harmless from and against all loss, liability, damage and expense,
claims, costs, fines and penalties, including attorney's fees, suffered or
incurred by Agent or Lenders under or on account of any Environmental Laws,
including, without limitation, the assertion of any Lien thereunder, with
respect to any Hazardous Discharge, the presence of any Hazardous Substances
affecting the Real Property, whether or not the same originates or emerges from
the Real Property or any contiguous real estate, including

                                       46
<PAGE>
any loss of value of the Real Property as a result of the foregoing except to
the extent such loss, liability, damage and expense is attributable to any
Hazardous Discharge resulting from actions on the part of Agent or any Lender.
Borrowers' obligations under this Section 4.19 shall arise upon the discovery of
the presence of any Hazardous Substances at the Real Property, whether or not
any federal, state, or local environmental agency has taken or threatened any
action in connection with the presence of any Hazardous Substances. Borrowers'
obligation and the indemnifications hereunder shall survive the termination of
this Agreement.

          (i)     For purposes of Section 4.19 and 5.7, all references to Real
Property shall be deemed to include all of Borrowers' right, title and interest
in and to its owned and leased premises.

     4.20.  Financing Statements.  Except as respects the financing statements
            --------------------
filed by Agent and the financing statements described on Schedule 1.2, no
                                                         ------------
financing statement covering any of the Collateral or any proceeds thereof is on
file in any public office.

and the pro forma consolidated balance sheet at August 31, 2002 (the "Pro Forma
Balance Sheet"), copies of which are annexed hereto as Exhibit 5.5(a), were
                                                       --------------
prepared by the Chief Financial Officer of AMC.  The Projections were based on
underlying assumptions which at the date of their preparation provided a
reasonable basis for the projections contained therein.  The Pro Forma Balance
Sheet reflects the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the
Acquisition Agreement, the Subordinated Debt Documentation and this Agreement
(the "Transactions").  The Projections together with the Pro Forma Balance

based has been certified as accurate, complete and correct in all material
respects by the President and Chief Financial Officer of AMC and to the best of
his knowledge the pro forma adjustments reflect reasonable business assumptions
based upon present circumstances.  The Projections, including the related
schedules and notes thereto, have been prepared, in accordance with GAAP as in
effect on the date of preparation, except as may be disclosed in such financial
statements.

          (b)     The consolidated balance sheets of AMC, its Subsidiaries and
such other Persons described therein (including the accounts of all Subsidiaries

stockholder's equity, and changes in cash flow for the fiscal year ended on such
date, all accompanied by reports thereon containing opinions without
qualification by independent certified public accountants, copies of which have

consistently applied (except for changes

                                       48
<PAGE>
in application in which such accountants concur) and present fairly the

        ------------------------------------------

     11.1.  Rights and Remedies.  Upon the occurrence of (i) an Event of Default
            -------------------
pursuant to Section 10.7 all Obligations shall be immediately due and payable
and this Agreement and the obligation of Lenders to make Advances shall be
deemed terminated; and, (ii) any of the other Events of Default and at any time
thereafter (such default not having previously been cured), at the option of
Required Lenders all Obligations shall be immediately due and payable and
Lenders shall have the right to terminate this Agreement and to terminate the
obligation of Lenders to make Advances and (iii) a filing of a petition against
Borrower in any involuntary case under any state or federal bankruptcy laws, the
obligation of Lenders to make Advances hereunder shall be terminated other than
as may be required by an appropriate order of the bankruptcy court having
jurisdiction over any Borrower.  Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default,
Agent shall have the right to exercise any and all other rights and remedies
provided for herein, under the Uniform Commercial Code and at law or equity
generally, including, without limitation, the right to foreclose the security
interests granted herein and to realize upon any Collateral by any available
judicial procedure and/or to take possession of and sell any or all of the
Collateral with or without judicial process.  Agent may enter any of any
Borrower's premises or other premises without legal process and without
incurring liability to any Borrower therefor, and Agent may thereupon, or at any
time thereafter, in its discretion without notice or demand, take the Collateral
and remove the same to such place as Agent may deem advisable and Agent may
require Borrowers to make the Collateral available to Agent at a convenient
place.  With or without having the Collateral at the time or place of sale,
Agent may sell the Collateral, or any part thereof, at public or private sale,
at any time or place, in one or more sales, at such price or prices, and upon
such terms, either for cash, credit or future delivery, as Agent may elect.

                                       71
<PAGE>
Except as to that part of the Collateral which is perishable or threatens to
decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized
market, Agent shall give Borrowers reasonable notification of such sale or
sales, it being agreed that in all events written notice mailed to Borrowers at
least ten (10) days prior to such sale or sales is reasonable notification.  At
any public sale Agent or any Lender may bid for and become the purchaser, and
Agent, any Lender or any other purchaser at any such sale thereafter shall hold
the Collateral sold absolutely free from any claim or right of whatsoever kind,
including any equity of redemption and such right and equity are hereby
expressly waived and released by each Borrower.  In connection with the exercise
of the foregoing remedies, Agent is granted permission by Borrowers to use all
of each Borrower's trademarks, trade styles, trade names, patents, patent
applications, licenses, franchises and other proprietary rights which are used
in connection with (a) Inventory for the purpose of disposing of such Inventory
and (b) Equipment for the purpose of completing the manufacture of unfinished
goods.  The proceeds realized from the sale of any Collateral shall be applied
as follows: first, to the reasonable costs, expenses and attorneys' fees and
expenses incurred by Agent for collection and for acquisition, completion,
protection, removal, storage, sale and delivery of the Collateral; second, to
interest due upon any of the Obligations and any fees payable under this
Agreement; and, third, to the principal of the Obligations.  If any deficiency
shall arise, Borrowers shall remain liable to Agent and Lenders therefor.

     11.2.  Agent's Discretion.  Agent shall have the right in its sole
            ------------------
discretion to determine which rights, Liens, security interests or remedies
Agent may at any time pursue, relinquish, subordinate, or modify or to take any
other action with respect thereto and such determination will not in any way
modify or affect any of Agent's or Lenders' rights hereunder.

     11.3.  Setoff.  In addition to any other rights which Agent or any Lender
            ------
may have under applicable law, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default
hereunder, Agent and such Lender shall have a right to apply any Borrower's
property held by Agent and such Lender to reduce the Obligations.

     11.4.  Rights and Remedies not Exclusive.  The enumeration of the foregoing
            ---------------------------------
rights and remedies is not intended to be exhaustive and the exercise of any
right or remedy shall not preclude the exercise of any other right or remedies
provided for herein or otherwise provided by law, all of which shall be
cumulative and not alternative.

     11.5.  Allocation of Payments After Event of Default.  Notwithstanding any
            ---------------------------------------------
other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, after the occurrence and
during the continuance of an Event of Default, all amounts collected or received
by the Agent on account of the Obligations or any other amounts outstanding
under any of the Other Documents or in respect of the Collateral may, at Agent's
discretion, be paid over or delivered as follows:

     FIRST, to the payment of all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses
(including without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees) of the Agent in
connection with enforcing the rights of the Lenders under this Agreement and the
Other Documents and any protective advances made by the Agent with respect to
the Collateral under or pursuant to the terms of this Document;

                                       72

     THIRD, to the payment of all of the Obligations consisting of accrued fees
and interest;

Obligations (including the payment or cash collateralization of the outstanding
Letters of Credit);

     FIFTH, to all other Obligations and other obligations which shall have
become due and payable under the Other Documents or otherwise and not repaid
pursuant to clauses "FIRST" through "FOURTH" above;

     SIXTH, to the payment of the surplus, if any, to whoever may be lawfully
entitled to receive such surplus.

In carrying out the foregoing, (i) amounts received shall be applied in the
numerical order provided until exhausted prior to application to the next
succeeding category; (ii) each of the Lenders shall receive (so long as it is
not a Defaulting Lender) an amount equal to its pro rata share (based on the
proportion that the then outstanding Advances held by such Lender bears to the
aggregate then outstanding Advances) of amounts available to be applied pursuant
to clauses "THIRD", "FOURTH" and "FIFTH" above; and (iii) to the extent that any
amounts available for distribution pursuant to clause "FIFTH" above are
attributable to the issued but undrawn amount of outstanding Letters of Credit,
such amounts shall be held by the Agent in a cash collateral account and applied
(A) first, to reimburse the Issuer from time to time for any drawings under such
Letters of Credit and (B) then, following the expiration of all Letters of
Credit, to all other obligations of the types described in clauses "FOURTH" and
"FIFTH" above in the manner provided in this Section 11.5.

XIII.  EFFECTIVE DATE AND TERMINATION.
       ------------------------------

     13.1.  Term.  This Agreement, which shall inure to the benefit of and shall
            ----
be binding upon the respective successors and permitted assigns of each
Borrower, Agent and each Lender, shall become effective on the date hereof and
shall continue in full force and effect until October 16, 2006 (the "Term")
unless sooner terminated as herein provided.  Borrowers may terminate this
Agreement at any time upon sixty (60) days' prior written notice upon payment in
full of the Obligations.  In the event the Obligations are prepaid in full prior
to the last day of the Term (the date of such prepayment hereinafter referred to
as the "Early Termination Date"), Borrowers shall pay to Agent for the benefit
of Lenders an early termination fee in an amount equal to (x) 2.00% of the
Maximum Revolving Advance Amount if the Early Termination Date occurs on or
after the Closing Date to and including the date immediately preceding the first
anniversary of the Closing Date, (y) 1.00% of the Maximum Revolving Advance
Amount if the Early Termination Date occurs on or after the first anniversary of
the Closing Date to and including the date immediately preceding the second
anniversary of the Closing Date, and (z) .25% of the Maximum Revolving Advance
Amount if the Early Termination Date occurs on or after the second anniversary
of the Closing Date to and including the date immediately preceding the third

     13.2.  Termination.  The termination of the Agreement shall not affect any
            -----------
Borrower's, Agent's or any Lender's rights, or any of the Obligations having
their inception prior to the effective date of such termination, and the
provisions hereof shall continue to be fully operative until all transactions
entered into, rights or interests created or Obligations have been fully
disposed of, concluded or liquidated.  The security interests, Liens and rights
granted to Agent and Lenders hereunder and the financing statements filed
hereunder shall continue in full force and effect, notwithstanding the
termination of this Agreement or the fact that Borrowers' Account may from time
to time be temporarily in a zero or credit position, until all of the
Obligations of each Borrower have been paid or performed in full after the
termination of this Agreement or each Borrower has furnished Agent and Lenders
with an indemnification satisfactory to Agent and Lenders with respect thereto.
Accordingly, each Borrower waives any rights which it may have under the Uniform
Commercial Code to demand the filing of termination statements with respect to
the Collateral, and Agent shall not be required to send such termination
statements to each Borrower, or to file them with any filing office, unless and
until this Agreement shall have been terminated in accordance with its terms and
all Obligations

                                       74
<PAGE>
paid in full in immediately available funds. All representations, warranties,
covenants, waivers and agreements contained herein shall survive termination
hereof until all Obligations are paid or performed in full.

XIV.  REGARDING AGENT.
      ---------------

     14.1.  Appointment.  Each Lender hereby designates PNC to act as Agent for
            -----------
such Lender under this Agreement and the Other Documents.  Each Lender hereby
irrevocably authorizes Agent to take such action on its behalf under the
provisions of this Agreement and the Other Documents and to exercise such powers
and to perform such duties hereunder and thereunder as are specifically
delegated to or required of Agent by the terms hereof and thereof and such other
powers as are reasonably incidental thereto and Agent shall hold all Collateral,
payments of principal and interest, fees (except the fees set forth in the Fee
Letter), charges and collections (without giving effect to any collection days)
received pursuant to this Agreement, for the ratable benefit of Lenders.  Agent
may perform any of its duties hereunder by or through its agents or employees.
As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement (including
without limitation, collection of the Note) Agent shall not be required to
exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to
refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining
from acting) upon the instructions of the Required Lenders, and such
instructions shall be binding; provided, however, that Agent shall not be
                               --------  -------
required to take any action which exposes Agent to liability or which is
contrary to this Agreement or the Other Documents or applicable law unless Agent
is furnished with an indemnification reasonably satisfactory to Agent with
respect thereto.

     14.2.  Nature of Duties.  Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities
            ----------------
except those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the Other Documents.
Neither Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be
(i) liable for any action taken or omitted by them as such hereunder or in
connection herewith, unless caused by their gross (not mere) negligence or
willful misconduct, or (ii) responsible in any manner for any recitals,
statements, representations or warranties made by any Borrower or any officer
thereof contained in this Agreement, or in any of the Other Documents or in any
certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in,
or received by Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any of the
Other Documents or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, due
execution, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement, or any of the Other
Documents or for any failure of any Borrower to perform its obligations
hereunder.  Agent shall not be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain
or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements
contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any of the Other Documents, or
to inspect the properties, books or records of any Borrower.  The duties of
Agent as respects the Advances to Borrowers shall be mechanical and
administrative in nature; Agent shall not have by reason of this Agreement a
fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender; and nothing in this Agreement,
expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to impose upon
Agent any obligations in respect of this Agreement except as expressly set forth
herein.

     14.3.  Lack of Reliance on Agent and Resignation.  Independently and
            -----------------------------------------
without reliance

                                       75
<PAGE>
upon Agent or any other Lender, each Lender has made and shall continue to make
(i) its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of
each Borrower in connection with the making and the continuance of the Advances
hereunder and the taking or not taking of any action in connection herewith, and
(ii) its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of each Borrower. Agent shall
have no duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to
provide any Lender with any credit or other information with respect thereto,
whether coming into its possession before making of the Advances or at any time
or times thereafter except as shall be provided by any Borrower pursuant to the
terms hereof. Agent shall not be responsible to any Lender for any recitals,
statements, information, representations or warranties herein or in any
agreement, document, certificate or a statement delivered in connection with or
for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability,
collectibility or sufficiency of this Agreement or any Other Document, or of the
financial condition of any Borrower, or be required to make any inquiry
concerning either the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions
or conditions of this Agreement, the Note, the Other Documents or the financial
condition of any Borrower, or the existence of any Event of Default or any
Default.

     Agent may resign on sixty (60) days' written notice to each of Lenders and
Borrowing Agent and upon such resignation, the Required Lenders will promptly
designate a successor Agent reasonably satisfactory to Borrowers.

     Any such successor Agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of
Agent, and the term "Agent" shall mean such successor agent effective upon its
appointment, and the former Agent's rights, powers and duties as Agent shall be
terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former
Agent.  After any Agent's resignation as Agent, the provisions of this Article
XIV shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by
it while it was Agent under this Agreement.

     14.4.  Certain Rights of Agent.  If Agent shall request instructions from
            -----------------------
Lenders with respect to any act or action (including failure to act) in
connection with this Agreement or any Other Document, Agent shall be entitled to
refrain from such act or taking such action unless and until Agent shall have
received instructions from the Required Lenders; and Agent shall not incur
liability to any Person by reason of so refraining.  Without limiting the
foregoing, Lenders shall not have any right of action whatsoever against Agent
as a result of its acting or refraining from acting hereunder in accordance with
the instructions of the Required Lenders.

     14.5.  Reliance.  Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully
            --------
protected in relying, upon any note, writing, resolution, notice, statement,
certificate, telex, teletype or telecopier message, cablegram, order or other
document or telephone message believed by it to be genuine and correct and to
have been signed, sent or made by the proper person or entity, and, with respect
to all legal matters pertaining to this Agreement and the Other Documents and
its duties hereunder, upon advice of counsel selected by it. Agent may employ
agents and attorneys-in-fact and shall not be liable for the default or
misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by Agent with
reasonable care.

     14.6.  Notice of Default.  Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or
            -----------------
notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder or under
the Other Documents, unless

                                       76
<PAGE>
Agent has received notice from a Lender or a Borrower referring to this
Agreement or the Other Documents, describing such Default or Event of Default
and stating that such notice is a "notice of default". In the event that Agent
receives such a notice, Agent shall give notice thereof to Lenders. Agent shall
take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be
reasonably directed by the Required Lenders; provided, that, unless and until
                                             --------  ----
Agent shall have received such directions, Agent may (but shall not be obligated
to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such
Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of
Lenders.

     14.7.  Indemnification.  To the extent Agent is not reimbursed and
            ---------------
indemnified by Borrowers, each Lender will reimburse and indemnify Agent in
proportion to its respective portion of the Advances (or, if no Advances are
outstanding, according to its Commitment Percentage), from and against any and
all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments,
suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which
may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against Agent in performing its
duties hereunder, or in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or
any Other Document; provided that, Lenders shall not be liable for any portion
                    -------- ----
of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions,
judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from Agent's gross
(not mere) negligence or willful misconduct.

     14.8.  Agent in its Individual Capacity.  With respect to the obligation of
            --------------------------------
Agent to lend under this Agreement, the Advances made by it shall have the same
rights and powers hereunder as any other Lender and as if it were not performing
the duties as Agent specified herein; and the term "Lender" or any similar term
shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include Agent in its
individual capacity as a Lender.  Agent may engage in business with any Borrower
as if it were not performing the duties specified herein, and may accept fees
and other consideration from any Borrower for services in connection with this
Agreement or otherwise without having to account for the same to Lenders.

     14.9.  Delivery of Documents.  To the extent Agent receives financial
            ---------------------
statements required under Sections 9.2(d) (only with respect to monthly
Borrowing Base Certificates), 9.7, 9.8, 9.9, 9.12 and 9.13 from Borrowers
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, Agent will promptly furnish such
documents and information to Lenders.

     14.10.  Borrowers' Undertaking to Agent.  Without prejudice to their
             -------------------------------
respective obligations to Lenders under the other provisions of this Agreement,
each Borrower hereby undertakes with Agent to pay to Agent from time to time on
demand all amounts from time to time due and payable by it for the account of
Agent or Lenders or any of them pursuant to this Agreement to the extent not
already paid.  Any payment made pursuant to any such demand shall pro tanto
                                                                  --- -----
satisfy the relevant Borrower's obligations to make payments for the account of
Lenders or the relevant one or more of them pursuant to this Agreement.

XV.  BORROWING AGENCY.
     ----------------

     15.1.  Borrowing Agency Provisions.
            ---------------------------

                                       77
<PAGE>
          (a)     Each Borrower hereby irrevocably designates Borrowing Agent to
be its attorney and agent and in such capacity to borrow, sign and endorse
notes, and execute and deliver all instruments, documents, writings and further
assurances now or hereafter required hereunder, on behalf of such Borrower or
Borrowers, and hereby authorizes Agent to pay over or credit all loan proceeds
hereunder in accordance with the request of Borrowing Agent.

          (b)     The handling of this credit facility as a co-borrowing
facility with a borrowing agent in the manner set forth in this Agreement is
solely as an accommodation to Borrowers and at their request.  Neither Agent nor
any Lender shall incur liability to Borrowers as a result thereof.  To induce
Agent and Lenders to do so and in consideration thereof, each Borrower hereby
indemnifies Agent and each Lender and holds Agent and each Lender harmless from
and against any and all liabilities, expenses, losses, damages and claims of
damage or injury asserted against Agent or any Lender by any Person arising from
or incurred by reason of the handling of the financing arrangements of Borrowers
as provided herein, reliance by Agent or any Lender on any request or
instruction from Borrowing Agent or any other action taken by Agent or any
Lender with respect to this Section 15.1 except due to willful misconduct or
gross (not mere) negligence by the indemnified party.

          (c)     All Obligations shall be joint and several, and each Borrower
shall make payment upon the maturity of the Obligations by acceleration or
otherwise, and such obligation and liability on the part of each Borrower shall
in no way be affected by any extensions, renewals and forbearance granted to
Agent or any Lender to any Borrower, failure of Agent or any Lender to give any
Borrower notice of borrowing or any other notice, any failure of Agent or any
Lender to pursue or preserve its rights against any Borrower, the release by
Agent or any Lender of any Collateral now or thereafter acquired from any
Borrower, and such agreement by each Borrower to pay upon any notice issued
pursuant thereto is unconditional and unaffected by prior recourse by Agent or
any Lender to the other Borrowers or any Collateral for such Borrower's
Obligations or the lack thereof.  Each Borrower waives all suretyship defenses.

     15.2.  Waiver of Subrogation.  Each Borrower expressly waives any and all
            ---------------------
rights of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnity, exoneration, contribution of
any other claim which such Borrower may now or hereafter have against the other
Borrowers or other Person directly or contingently liable for the Obligations
hereunder, or against or with respect to the other Borrowers' property
(including, without limitation, any property which is Collateral for the
Obligations), arising from the existence or performance of this Agreement, until
termination of this Agreement and repayment in full of the Obligations.

XVI.  MISCELLANEOUS.
      -------------

     16.1.  Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
            -------------
accordance with the laws of the State of New York applied to contracts to be
performed wholly within the State of New York.  Any judicial proceeding brought
by or against any Borrower with respect to any of the Obligations, this
Agreement or any related agreement may be brought in any court of competent
jurisdiction in the State of New York, United States of America, and, by

                                       78
<PAGE>
execution and delivery of this Agreement, each Borrower accepts for itself and
in connection with its properties, generally and unconditionally, the
non-exclusive jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts, and irrevocably agrees to be
bound by any judgment rendered thereby in connection with this Agreement.  Each
Borrower hereby waives personal service of any and all process upon it and
consents that all such service of process may be made by registered mail (return
receipt requested) directed to Borrowing Agent at its address set forth in
Section 16.6 and service so made shall be deemed completed five (5) days after
the same shall have been so deposited in the mails of the United States of
America, or, at the Agent's and/or any Lender's option, by service upon
Borrowing Agent which each Borrower irrevocably appoints as such Borrower's
Agent for the purpose of accepting service within the State of New York.
Nothing herein shall affect the right to serve process in any manner permitted
by law or shall limit the right of Agent or any Lender to bring proceedings
against any Borrower in the courts of any other jurisdiction.  Each Borrower
waives any objection to jurisdiction and venue of any action instituted
hereunder and shall not assert any defense based on lack of jurisdiction or
venue or based upon forum non conveniens.  Any judicial proceeding by any
                    --------------------
Borrower against Agent or any Lender involving, directly or indirectly, any
matter or claim in any way arising out of, related to or connected with this
Agreement or any related agreement, shall be brought only in a federal or state
court located in the County of New York, State of New York.

     16.2.  Entire Understanding.  (a)  This Agreement and the documents
            --------------------
executed concurrently herewith contain the entire understanding between each
Borrower, Agent and each Lender and supersedes all prior agreements and
understandings, if any, relating to the subject matter hereof.  Any promises,
representations, warranties or guarantees not herein contained and hereinafter
made shall have no force and effect unless in writing, signed by each
Borrower's, Agent's and each Lender's respective officers.  Neither this
Agreement nor any portion or provisions hereof may be changed, modified,
amended, waived, supplemented, discharged, cancelled or terminated orally or by
any course of dealing, or in any manner other than by an agreement in writing,
signed by the party to be charged.  Each Borrower acknowledges that it has been
advised by counsel in connection with the execution of this Agreement and Other
Documents and is not relying upon oral representations or statements
inconsistent with the terms and provisions of this Agreement.

          (b)     The Required Lenders, Agent with the consent in writing of the
Required Lenders, and Borrowers may, subject to the provisions of this Section
16.2 (b), from time to time enter into written supplemental agreements to this
Agreement or the Other Documents executed by Borrowers, for the purpose of
adding or deleting any provisions or otherwise changing, varying or waiving in
any manner the rights of Lenders, Agent or Borrowers thereunder or the
conditions, provisions or terms thereof of waiving any Event of Default
thereunder, but only to the extent specified in such written agreements;
provided, however, that no such supplemental agreement shall, without the
--------  -------
consent of all Lenders:

               (i)  increase the Commitment Percentage or maximum dollar
     commitment of any Lender or the Maximum Revolving Advance Amount.

               (ii)  extend the maturity of any Note or the due date for any
     amount payable hereunder, or decrease the rate of interest or reduce any
     fee payable by

                                       79
<PAGE>
     Borrowers to Lenders pursuant to this Agreement.

               (iii)  alter the definition of the term Required Lenders or
     alter, amend or modify this Section 16.2(b) or Section 2.2(f).

               (iv)  release any Collateral during any calendar year (other than
     in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement) having an aggregate
     value in excess of $1,000,000.

               (v)  change the rights and duties of Agent.

               (vi)  permit any Revolving Advance to be made if after giving
     effect thereto the total of Revolving Advances outstanding hereunder would
     exceed the Formula Amount for more than thirty (30) consecutive Business
     Days or exceed one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the Formula Amount.

               (vii)  increase the Advance Rates above the Advance Rates in
     effect on the Closing Date.

Any such supplemental agreement shall apply equally to each Lender and shall be
binding upon Borrowers, Lenders and Agent and all future holders of the
Obligations.  In the case of any waiver, Borrowers, Agent and Lenders shall be
restored to their former positions and rights, and any Event of Default waived
shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing, but no waiver of a specific
Event of Default shall extend to any subsequent Event of Default (whether or not
the subsequent Event of Default is the same as the Event of Default which was
waived), or impair any right consequent thereon.

     In the event that Agent requests the consent of a Lender pursuant to this
Section 16.2 and such Lender shall not respond or reply to Agent in writing
within ten (10) days of delivery of such request, such Lender shall be deemed to
have consented to the matter that was the subject of the request.  In the event
that Agent requests the consent of a Lender pursuant to this Section 16.2 and
such consent is denied, then PNC may, at its option, require such Lender to
assign its interest in the Advances to PNC or to another Lender or to any other
Person designated by the Agent (the "Designated Lender"), for a price equal to
the then outstanding principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest
and fees due such Lender, which interest and fees shall be paid when collected
from Borrowers.  In the event PNC elects to require any Lender to assign its
interest to PNC or to the Designated Lender, PNC will so notify such Lender in
writing within forty five (45) days following such Lender's denial, and such
Lender will assign its interest to PNC or the Designated Lender no later than
five (5) days following receipt of such notice pursuant to a Commitment Transfer
Supplement executed by such Lender, PNC or the Designated Lender, as
appropriate, and Agent.

     Notwithstanding (a) the existence of a Default or an Event of Default, (b)
that any of the other applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section 8.2
hereof have not been satisfied or (c) any other provision of this Loan
Agreement, Agent may at its discretion and without the consent of the Required
Lenders, voluntarily permit the outstanding Revolving Advances at any time to

                                       80
<PAGE>
exceed the Formula Amount by up to one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the
Formula Amount for up to thirty (30) consecutive Business Days.  For purposes of
the preceding sentence, the discretion granted to Agent hereunder shall not
preclude involuntary overadvances that may result from time to time due to the
fact that the Formula Amount was unintentionally exceeded for any reason,
including, but not limited to, Collateral previously deemed to be either
"Eligible Receivables", "Eligible Third Party Receivables" or "Eligible
Inventory", as applicable, becomes ineligible, collections of Receivables
applied to reduce outstanding Revolving Advances are thereafter returned for
insufficient funds or overadvances are made to protect or preserve the
Collateral.  In the event Agent involuntarily permits the outstanding Revolving
Advances to exceed the Formula Amount by more than ten percent (10%), Agent
shall use its efforts to have Borrowers decrease such excess in as expeditious a
manner as is practicable under the circumstances and not inconsistent with the
reason for such excess.  Revolving Advances made after Agent has determined the
existence of involuntary overadvances shall be deemed to be involuntary
overadvances and shall be decreased in accordance with the preceding sentence.

     In addition to (and not in substitution of) the discretionary Revolving
Advances permitted above in this Section 16.2, the Agent is hereby authorized by
the Borrowers and the Lenders, from time to time in the Agent's sole discretion,
(A) after the occurrence and during the continuation of a Default or an Event of
Default, or (b) at any time that any of the other applicable conditions
precedent set forth in Section 8.2 hereof have not been satisfied, to make
Revolving Advances to the Borrowers on behalf of the Lenders which the Agent, in
its reasonable business judgment, deems necessary or desirable (a) to preserve
or protect the Collateral, or any portion thereof, (b) to enhance the likelihood
of, or maximize the amount of, repayment of the Advances and other Obligations,
or (iii) to pay any other amount chargeable to the Borrowers pursuant to the
terms of this Agreement; provided, that at any time after giving effect to any
                         --------  ----
such Revolving Advances the outstanding Revolving Advances do not exceed one
hundred and ten percent (110%) of the Formula Amount.

     16.3.  Successors and Assigns; Participations; New Lenders.
            ---------------------------------------------------

          (a)     This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit
of Borrowers, Agent, each Lender, all future holders of the Obligations and
their respective successors and assigns, except that no Borrower may assign or
transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior
written consent of Agent and each Lender.

          (b)     Each Borrower acknowledges that in the regular course of
commercial banking business one or more Lenders may at any time and from time to
time sell participating interests in the Advances to other financial
institutions (each such transferee or purchaser of a participating interest, a
"Transferee").  Each Transferee may exercise all rights of payment (including
without limitation rights of set-off) with respect to the portion of such
Advances held by it or other Obligations payable hereunder as fully as if such
Transferee were the direct holder thereof provided that Borrowers shall not be
required to pay to any Transferee more than the amount which it would have been
required to pay to Lender which granted an interest in its Advances or other
Obligations payable hereunder to such Transferee had such Lender retained such
interest in the Advances hereunder or other Obligations payable hereunder and in
no event

                                       81
<PAGE>
shall Borrowers be required to pay any such amount arising from the same
circumstances and with respect to the same Advances or other Obligations payable
hereunder to both such Lender and such Transferee. Each Borrower hereby grants
to any Transferee a continuing security interest in any deposits, moneys or
other property actually or constructively held by such Transferee as security
for the Transferee's interest in the Advances.

          (c)     Any Lender may with the consent of Agent which shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed sell, assign or transfer all or any part of its
rights under this Agreement and the Other Documents to one or more additional
banks or financial institutions and one or more additional banks or financial
institutions may commit to make Advances hereunder (each a "Purchasing Lender"),
in minimum amounts of not less than $5,000,000, pursuant to a Commitment
Transfer Supplement, executed by a Purchasing Lender, the transferor Lender, and
Agent and delivered to Agent for recording.  Upon such execution, delivery,
acceptance and recording, from and after the transfer effective date determined
pursuant to such Commitment Transfer Supplement, (i) Purchasing Lender
thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent provided in such
Commitment Transfer Supplement, have the rights and obligations of a Lender
thereunder with a Commitment Percentage as set forth therein, and (ii) the
transferor Lender thereunder shall, to the extent provided in such Commitment
Transfer Supplement, be released from its obligations under this Agreement, the
Commitment Transfer Supplement creating a novation for that purpose.  Such
Commitment Transfer Supplement shall be deemed to amend this Agreement to the
extent, and only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of such
Purchasing Lender and the resulting adjustment of the Commitment Percentages
arising from the purchase by such Purchasing Lender of all or a portion of the
rights and obligations of such transferor Lender under this Agreement and the
Other Documents.  Borrowers hereby consent to the addition of such Purchasing
Lender and the resulting adjustment of the Commitment Percentages arising from
the purchase by such Purchasing Lender of all or a portion of the rights and
obligations of such transferor Lender under this Agreement and the Other
Documents.  Borrowers shall execute and deliver such further documents and do
such further acts and things in order to effectuate the foregoing.

          (d)     Agent shall maintain at its address a copy of each Commitment
Transfer Supplement delivered to it and a register (the "Register") for the
recordation of the names and addresses of the Advances owing to each Lender from
time to time.  The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence
of manifest error, and Borrowers, Agent and Lenders may treat each Person whose
name is recorded in the Register as the owner of the Advance recorded therein
for the purposes of this Agreement.  The Register shall be available for
inspection by Borrowers or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to
time upon reasonable prior notice.  Agent shall receive a fee in the amount of
$3,500 payable by the applicable Purchasing Lender upon the effective date of
each transfer or assignment to such Purchasing Lender.

          (e)     Each Borrower authorizes each Lender to disclose to any
Transferee or Purchasing Lender and any prospective Transferee or Purchasing
Lender any and all financial information in such Lender's possession concerning
such Borrower which has been delivered to such Lender by or on behalf of such
Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or in connection with such Lender's credit
evaluation of such Borrower.

     16.4.  Application of Payments.  Agent shall have the continuing and
            -----------------------
exclusive right to apply or reverse and re-apply any payment and any and all
proceeds of Collateral to any portion of the Obligations.  To the extent that
any Borrower makes a payment or Agent or any Lender receives any payment or
proceeds of the Collateral for any Borrower's benefit, which are subsequently
invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to
be repaid to a trustee, debtor in possession, receiver, custodian or any other
party under any bankruptcy law, common law or equitable cause, then, to such
extent, the Obligations or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be
revived and continue as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by
Agent or such Lender.

     16.5.  Indemnity.  Each Borrower shall indemnify Agent, each Lender and
            ---------
each of their respective officers, directors, Affiliates, employees and agents
from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages,
penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements of any
kind or nature whatsoever (including, without limitation, fees and disbursements
of counsel) which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against Agent or
any Lender in any litigation, proceeding or investigation instituted or
conducted by any governmental agency or instrumentality or any other Person with
respect to any aspect of, or any transaction contemplated by, or referred to in,
or any matter related to, this Agreement or the Other Documents, whether or not
Agent or any Lender is a party thereto, except to the extent that any of the
foregoing arises out of the willful misconduct of the party being indemnified.

     16.6.  Notice.  Any notice or request hereunder may be given to Borrowing
            ------
Agent or any Borrower or to Agent or any Lender at their respective addresses
set forth below or at such other address as may hereafter be specified in a

            ------------
prohibited by, or deemed invalid under applicable laws or regulations, such

             -----------------
Borrower fails to perform, observe or discharge any of its obligations or
liabilities under this Agreement, any remedy at law may prove to be inadequate

             ------------

information obtained by Agent, such Lender or such Transferee pursuant to the
requirements of this Agreement in accordance with Agent's, such Lender's and
such Transferee's customary procedures for handling confidential information of
this nature; provided, however, Agent, each Lender and each Transferee may
             --------  -------
disclose such confidential information (a) to its examiners, affiliates, outside
auditors, counsel and other professional advisors, (b) to Agent, any Lender or,

representative thereof (other than any such request in connection with an
examination of the financial condition of a Lender or a Transferee by such
Governmental Body) or (B) pursuant to legal process and (ii) in no event shall
Agent, any Lender or any Transferee be obligated to return any materials
furnished by any Borrower other than those documents and instruments in
possession of Agent or any Lender in order to perfect its Lien on the Collateral
once the Obligations have been paid in full and this Agreement has been
terminated.

          (b)     Each Borrower acknowledges that from time to time financial
advisory, investment banking and other services may be offered or provided to
such Borrower or one or more of its Affiliates (in connection with this
Agreement or otherwise) by any Lender or by one or more Subsidiaries or
Affiliates of such Lender and each Borrower hereby authorizes each Lender to
share any information delivered to such Lender by such Borrower and its
Subsidiaries pursuant to this Agreement, or in connection with the decision of
such Lender to enter into this Agreement, to any such Subsidiary or Affiliate of
such Lender, it being understood that any such Subsidiary or Affiliate of any
Lender receiving such information shall be bound by the provision of Section
16.15 as if it were a Lender hereunder.  Such authorization shall survive the
repayment of the other Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

     16.16.  Publicity.  After AMC has made a public announcement, each Borrower
             ---------
and each Lender hereby authorizes Agent to make appropriate announcements of the
