          Section 2.01.    Advances.
                           --------

          (a) From and after the Effective Date and until the Commitment
Termination Date and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Lender
severally agrees to make its Pro Rata Share of advances (each such advance
hereunder, an "Advance") to the Borrower from time to time; provided, however,
               -------                                      --------  -------
that no Advances shall be made from and after the commencement of a case or
proceeding described in Section 9.01(c) until such case or proceeding shall have
                        ---------------
been dismissed, bonded or discharged prior to the end of the 60-day period
described in such Section 9.01(c).  The Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding
                  ---------------
Principal Amount of any Lender shall not at any time exceed its separate
Commitment. Under no circumstances shall a Lender make any Advances if, after
giving effect thereto, a Funding Excess would exist. The aggregate amount of
Advances outstanding shall not exceed at any time the Borrowing Base, as
determined by the most recent Borrowing Base Certificate delivered by the
Borrower hereunder. Borrower may from time to time borrow, repay and reborrow
Advances hereunder on the terms and conditions set forth herein.

          (b) Borrower shall execute and deliver to each Lender a note to
evidence the Advances which may be made hereunder from time to time by such
Lender. The note shall be in the principal amount of the Commitment of the
applicable Lender, dated the Closing Date and substantially in the form of
Exhibit 2.01(b) (each, a "Revolving Note").  Each Revolving Note shall represent
---------------           --------------
the obligation of Borrower to pay the amount of each Lender's Commitment or, if
less, the Lender's Pro Rata Share of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of
all outstanding Advances made to Borrower together with interest thereon as
prescribed in Section 2.06.  The Outstanding Principal Amount of Advances and
              ------------
all other accrued and unpaid Borrower Obligations shall be immediately due and
payable in full in immediately available funds on the Commitment Termination
Date.

          Section 2.02.    Optional Changes in Maximum Facility Amount.
                           -------------------------------------------

          (a) So long as no Incipient Termination Event or Termination Event
shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower may, not more than twice
during each calendar year, reduce the Commitment permanently; provided, that (i)
                                                              --------
the Borrower shall give ten Business Days' prior written notice of any such
reduction to the Administrative Agent substantially in the form of Exhibit
                                                                   -------
2.02(a) (each such notice, a "Commitment Reduction Notice"), (ii) any partial
-------                       ---------------------------
reduction of the Commitment shall be in a minimum amount of $5,000,000 or an
integral multiple thereof, and (iii) no such partial reduction shall reduce the
Commitment below the greater of (x) Outstanding Principal Amount at such time
and (y)

                                       2
<PAGE>

$50,000,000. Any such reduction in the Commitment shall result in a reduction in
each Lender's Commitment in an amount equal to such Lenders Pro Rata Share of
the amount by which the aggregate Commitment is being reduced.

          (b) The Borrower may, at any time, on at least 30 days' prior written
notice, by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent irrevocably terminate the
Commitment; provided, that (i) such notice of termination shall be substantially
            --------
in the form of Exhibit 2.02(b) (the "Commitment Termination Notice") and (ii)
               ---------------       -----------------------------
the Borrower shall reduce the Outstanding Principal Amount to zero and make all
payments required by Section 2.03(h) at the time and in the manner specified
                     ---------------
therein.  Upon such termination, the Borrower's right to request that any Lender
make Advances hereunder shall simultaneously terminate and the Commitment
Termination Date shall automatically occur.

          (c) Each written notice required to be delivered pursuant to Sections
                                                                       --------

received). Each such notice of termination or reduction shall specify,
respectively, the amount of, or the amount of the proposed reduction in, the
Commitment.

irrevocable and (iii) specify the amount of the requested increase in
Outstanding Principal Amount (which shall be in a minimum amount of $250,000)
and the proposed Advance Date (which shall be a Business Day), and shall include

Agent.  If the Borrower desires LIBOR Rate Advances it must comply with Section
                                                                        -------
2.06(c).

     the requested Advance. All payments by each Lender shall be made without
     setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind.

               (ii) On each Interest Payment Date, the Administrative Agent will
     advise each Lender by telephone or telecopy of the amount of such Lender's
     Pro Rata Share of principal, interest and Fees paid for the benefit of
     Lenders with respect to each applicable Advance. Provided that such Lender
     has made all payments required to be made by it and purchased all
     participations required to be purchased by it under this Agreement and the
     other Related Documents as of such Interest Payment Date, the
     Administrative Agent will pay to each Lender such Lender's Pro Rata Share
     of principal, interest and Fees paid by the Borrower since the previous
     Interest Payment Date for the benefit of that Lender on the portion of the
     Outstanding Principal Amount held by it. Such payments shall be made by
     wire transfer to such Lender's account (as specified by such Lender in
     Annex W or the applicable Assignment Agreement) not later than 2:00 p.m.
     -------
     (New York time on each Interest Payment Date).

          (c)  Availability of Lender's Pro Rata Share.  The Administrative
               ---------------------------------------
Agent may assume that each Lender will make its Pro Rata Share of each Advance
available to the Administrative Agent on each Advance Date. If the
Administrative Agent has made available to the Borrower such Lender's Pro Rata
Share of an Advance but such Pro Rata Share is not, in fact, paid to the
Administrative Agent by such Lender when due, the Administrative Agent will be
entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender without set-off,
counterclaim or deduction of any kind. If any Lender fails to pay the amount of
its Pro Rata Share forthwith upon the Administrative Agent's demand, the
Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Borrower shall
immediately repay such amount to the Administrative Agent; any such prepayment
shall be without any prepayment or penalty, including any payment of Breakage
Costs described in Section 2.10.  Nothing in this Section 2.03(c) or elsewhere
                   ------------                   ---------------
in this Agreement or the other Related Documents shall be deemed to require the
Administrative Agent to advance funds on behalf of any Lender or to relieve any
Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitments hereunder or to prejudice
any rights that the Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any
default by such Lender hereunder. To the extent that the Administrative Agent
advances funds to the Borrower on behalf of any Lender and is not reimbursed
therefor on the same Business Day as such Advance is made, the Administrative
Agent shall be entitled to retain for its account all interest accrued on such
Advance from the date of such Advance to the date such Advance is reimbursed by
the applicable Lender.

          (d)  Return of Payments.  (i)  If the Administrative Agent pays an
               ------------------
amount to a Lender under this Agreement in the belief or expectation that a
related payment has been or will be received by the Administrative Agent from
the Borrower and such related payment is not received by the Administrative
Agent, then the Administrative Agent will be entitled to recover

                                       4
<PAGE>

such amount from such Lender on demand without set-off, counterclaim or
deduction of any kind.

               (ii) If the Administrative Agent determines at any time that any
     amount received by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement must be
     returned to the Borrower or paid to any other Person pursuant to any
     insolvency law or otherwise, then, notwithstanding any other term or
     condition of this Agreement or any other Related Document, the
     Administrative Agent will not be required to distribute any portion thereof
     to any Lender. In addition, each Lender will repay to the Administrative
     Agent on demand any portion of such amount that the Administrative Agent
     has distributed to such Lender, together with interest at such rate, if
     any, as the Administrative Agent is required to pay to the Borrower or such
     other Person, without set-off, counterclaim or deduction of any kind.

          (e)  Non-Funding Lenders.  The failure of any Lender (such Lender, a
               -------------------
"Non-Funding Lender") to make any Advance to be made by it on the date specified
-------------------
therefor shall not relieve any other Lender (each such other Lender, an "Other
                                                                         -----
Lender") of its obligations to make such Advance, but neither any Other Lender
------
nor the Administrative Agent shall be responsible for the failure of any Non-
Funding Lender to make a Advance to be made by such Non-Funding Lender.
Notwithstanding anything set forth herein to the contrary, a Non-Funding Lender
shall not have any voting or consent rights under or with respect to any Related
Document or constitute a "Lender" (or be included in the calculation of
"Requisite Lenders" hereunder) for any voting or consent rights under or with
respect to any Related Document.

          (f)  Dissemination of Information.  The Administrative Agent will use
               ----------------------------
reasonable efforts to provide Lenders with (i) copies of all notices and other
documents provided to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 5.02, (ii)
                                                           ------------
any notice of an Incipient Termination Event or Termination Event received by
the Administrative Agent from, or delivered by the Administrative Agent to, the
Borrower, (iii) notice of any Termination Event of which the Administrative
Agent has actually become aware and (iv) notice of any action taken by the
Administrative Agent following any Termination Event; provided, however, that
                                                      --------  -------
the Administrative Agent shall not be liable to any Lender for any failure to do
so, except to the extent that such failure is attributable solely to the
Administrative Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct as finally
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.

          (g)  Actions in Concert. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary
               ------------------
notwithstanding, each Lender hereby agrees with each other Lender that no Lender
shall take any action to protect or enforce its rights arising out of this
Agreement or the Revolving Notes (including exercising any rights of set-off)
without first obtaining the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent or
Requisite Lenders, it being the intent of Lenders that any such action to
protect or enforce rights under this Agreement and the Revolving Notes shall be
taken in concert and at the direction or with the consent of the Administrative
Agent.

          (h)  Principal Repayments.  Pursuant to a request by the Member, the
               --------------------
Borrower may at any time reduce the Outstanding Principal Amount; provided, that
                                                                  --------
(i) the Borrower shall give one Business Day's prior written notice of any such
reduction to the

                                       5
<PAGE>

Administrative Agent substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.03(h) (each such
                                                  ---------------
notice, a "Repayment Notice"), (ii) each such notice shall be irrevocable, (iii)
           ----------------
each such notice shall specify the amount of the requested reduction in the
Outstanding Principal Amount and the proposed date of such reduction (which
shall be a Business Day) and (iv) any such reduction must be accompanied by
payment of (A) all interest accrued and unpaid on the Outstanding Principal
Amount being reduced through but excluding the date of such reduction and (B)
any amounts required to be paid in accordance with Section 2.10, if any.  Any
                                                   ------------
such notice of reduction must be received by the Administrative Agent no later
than 4:00 p.m. (New York time) on the Business Day immediately preceding the
date of the proposed reduction in the Outstanding Principal Amount; provided,
                                                                    --------
further, that the foregoing requirements shall not apply to reductions of the
-------
Outstanding Principal Amount as a result of the application of amounts on
deposit in the Collection Account pursuant to Section 2.06(d).

          (a) Increases in Outstanding Principal Amount.

              (i)  Funding of Borrower Account.  Following receipt of any
                   ---------------------------
     Borrowing Request, and subject to Section 2.03(c) and satisfaction of the
                                       ---------------
     conditions set forth in Section 3.02, the Administrative Agent shall make
                             ------------
     available to or on behalf of the Borrower on the Advance Date specified
     therein the lesser of (x) the requested increase in the Outstanding
     Principal Amount specified in such Borrowing Request and (y) the Funding
     Availability, by depositing such amount in same day funds into the Borrower
     Account.

              (ii) Recordation of Advances. The Borrower shall indicate in its
                   -----------------------
     Records that interests in the Transferred Receivables have been pledged
     hereunder and that the Administrative Agent has a lien on and security
     interest in all such Transferred Receivables for the benefit of the
     Lenders. The Borrower and the Servicer shall hold all Contracts and other
     documents and incidents relating to such Transferred Receivables in trust
     for the benefit of the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders in
     accordance with their interests hereunder. The Borrower and the Servicer
     hereby acknowledge that their retention and possession of such Contracts
     and documents shall at all times be at the sole discretion of the
     Administrative Agent and in a custodial capacity for the Administrative
     Agent's (on behalf of the Lenders) benefit only.

          (b) Repurchases of Transferred Receivables.  If an Originator is
              --------------------------------------
required to repurchase Transferred Receivables from the Borrower pursuant to
Section 4.04 of the Sale Agreement, upon payment from such Originator of the
------------
applicable repurchase price thereof (which repurchase price shall not be less
than an amount equal to the Billed Amount of such Transferred Receivable minus
                                                                         -----
the sum of (A) Collections received in respect thereof and (B) the amount of any
Dilution Factors taken into account in the calculation of the Sale Price
therefor), the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall release their liens on
and security interests in the Transferred Receivables being so repurchased.

                           ---------------------------
anything to the contrary set forth herein, no Lender shall have any obligation
to make any Advances from and after the Commitment Termination Date.

          Section 2.06.    Interest.
                           --------

          (a) The Borrower shall pay interest to the Administrative Agent, for
the ratable benefit of Lenders in accordance with the various Advances being
made by each Lender, in arrears on each applicable Interest Payment Date, (i)
for each LIBOR Rate Advance, at the applicable LIBOR Rate for the relevant LIBOR
Period then ending, and (ii) for all of the Index Rate Advances outstanding from
time to time, at the applicable Index Rate as in effect from time to time during
the immediately preceding calendar month, based on the aggregate outstanding
amount of Index Rate Advances outstanding from time to time during such month.
Interest for each LIBOR Rate Advance shall be calculated based upon actual days
elapsed during the related LIBOR Period for a 360 day year based upon actual
days elapsed since the last Interest Payment Date and interest for each Index
Rate Advance shall be calculated for a 365 day year.

          (b) So long as any Termination Event shall have occurred and be
continuing, the interest rates applicable to each Advance hereunder shall be
increased by two percentage points (2.0%) per annum (such increased rate, the
"Default Rate"), and all outstanding Advances shall bear interest at the
applicable Default Rate from the date of such Termination Event until such
Termination Event is waived.

          (c) So long as no Incipient Termination Event or Termination Event
shall have occurred and be continuing, and subject to the additional conditions
precedent set forth in Section 3.02, the Borrower shall have the option to (i)
                       ------------
request that any Advances be made as Index Rate Advances or as LIBOR Rate
Advances, (ii) convert at any time all or any part of the outstanding Advances
from Index Rate Advances to LIBOR Rate Advances, (iii) convert any LIBOR Rate
Advance to an Index Rate Advance, subject to payment of Breakage Rate costs in
accordance with Section 2.10 if such conversion is made prior to the expiration
                ------------
of the LIBOR Period applicable thereto, or (iv) continue all or any portion of
any part of a LIBOR Rate Advance upon the expiration of the applicable LIBOR
Period and the succeeding LIBOR Period of that continued LIBOR Rate Advance
shall commence on the last day of the LIBOR Period of the LIBOR Rate Advance to
be continued.  Any  Advances to be made or continued as, or converted into, a
LIBOR Rate Advance must be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 and integral
multiples of $500,000 in excess of such amount.  Any such election must be made
by 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on (A) the third (3rd) Business Day prior to (1)
the date of any proposed LIBOR Rate Advance (2) the end of each LIBOR Period
with respect to any LIBOR Rate Advances to be continued as such, or (3) the date
on which Borrower wishes to convert any Index Rate Advance to a LIBOR Rate
Advance for a LIBOR Period designated by Borrower in such election, or (B) the
Business Day of any proposed Advance which is to bear interest at the Index
Rate.  If no election is received with respect to a LIBOR Rate Advance by 11:00
a.m. (New York time) on the third (3rd) Business Day prior to the end of the
LIBOR Period with respect thereto (or if an Incipient Termination Event or a
Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing or the additional
conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.02 shall not have been satisfied),
                                  ------------
that LIBOR Rate Advance shall be converted to an Index Rate Advance at the

                                       7

end of its LIBOR Period. Borrower must make such election by notice to the
Administrative Agent in writing, by telecopy or overnight courier. In the case
of any conversion or continuation, such election must be made pursuant to a
written notice (a "Notice of Conversion/Continuation") in the form of Exhibit
                   ---------------------------------                  -------
2.06(c).

          (d) On each Business Day, the Administrative Agent shall apply amounts
on deposit in the Collection Account on such day to amounts then due and payable
in the following order: (1) to Fees and Administrative Agent's expenses
reimbursable hereunder; (2) to interest on the Advances; (3) to principal
payments on the Advances which are Index Rate Loans; (4) to principal payments
on Advances which are LIBOR Rate Advances; (5) to all other obligations of the
Borrower hereunder, including, without limitation, the expenses of Lenders to
the extent reimbursable under Section 14.04, and (6) deposit in the Borrower
                              -------------
Account remaining funds after payment of the amounts described in clauses (1)
through (5) above.  The Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the right to direct
the application of any and all payments received from or on behalf of the
Borrower, and the Borrower hereby irrevocably agrees that any and all such
payments shall be applied by the Administrative Agent in accordance with this
Section 2.06(d).  The Administrative Agent will, at least as frequently as
---------------
monthly, and otherwise upon the Borrower's written request, give an accounting
as to any applications of funds made pursuant to this Section 2.06(d).
                                                      ---------------

          (e) The Administrative Agent is authorized to, and at its sole
election may, charge to the Outstanding Principal Amount on behalf of the
Borrower and cause to be paid all Fees, expenses, charges, costs, interest and
principal, other than principal of the Advances, owing by the Borrower under
this Agreement or any of the other Related Documents if and to the extent the
Borrower fails to pay any such amounts as and when due, even if such charges
would cause the aggregate balance of the Outstanding Principal Amount to exceed
the Borrowing Base. At Agent's option and to the extent permitted by law, any
charges so made shall constitute part of the Outstanding Principal Amount
hereunder.

          Section 2.07.    Fees.
                           ----

          (a) On the Effective Date, the Borrower shall pay to the
Administrative Agent, for the account of itself and the Lenders, the fees set
forth in the Fee Letter that are payable on the Effective Date.

          (b) From and after the Closing Date, as additional compensation for
the Lenders, the Borrower agrees to pay to Administrative Agent, for the ratable
benefit of such Lenders, monthly in arrears, on the first Business Day of each
month prior to the Commitment Termination Date and on the Commitment Termination
Date, the Unused Commitment Fee.

          (c) From and after the Closing Date, the Borrower agrees to pay to the
Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, monthly in
arrears, on the first Business Day of each month, a fee equal to the product of
(i) the average daily amount of Collections swept from the Lockbox Account to
the Collection Account during such month, (ii) the average daily Index Rate
during such month, and (iii) a fraction equal to the actual number of days
elapsed during such month divided by 365 days.

          (d) On each Settlement Date, the Borrower shall pay to the Servicer or
to the Successor Servicer, as applicable, the Servicing Fee or the Successor
Servicing Fees and Expenses, respectively, in each case to the extent of
available funds therefor.

          Section 2.08.    Time and Method of Payments.
                           ---------------------------

          (a) All payments in reduction of Outstanding Principal Amount and all
payments of interest, Fees and other amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder
shall be made in Dollars, in immediately available funds, by application of
amounts on deposit in the Collection Account in accordance with Section 2.06(d)
                                                                ---------------
hereof; provided, that to the extent that amounts on deposit in the Collection
        --------
Account on any day are insufficient to pay amounts due on such day in respect of
reductions to the Outstanding Principal Amount, interest, Fees or any other
amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder, the Borrower shall pay, upon notice
from the Administrative Agent, the amount of such insufficiency to the
Administrative Agent in Dollars, in immediately available funds (for the account
of the Administrative Agent, the applicable Lenders, Affected Parties or
Indemnified Persons) not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on such day. Any
such payment made on such date but after such time shall be deemed to have been
made on, and interest shall continue to accrue and be payable thereon at the
LIBOR Rate (in the case of LIBOR Rate Advances) or the Index Rate (in all other
cases), until the next succeeding Business Day. If any such payment becomes due
on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity thereof will be extended to the
next succeeding Business Day (except as set forth in the definition of LIBOR
Period) and interest thereon at the LIBOR Rate (in the case of LIBOR Rate
Advances) or Index Rate (in all other cases) shall be payable during such
extension. Payments received after 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on any Business
Day or on a day that is not a Business Day shall be deemed to have been received
on the following Business Day.

          (b) Any and all payments by the Borrower hereunder shall be made in
accordance with this Section 2.08 without setoff or counterclaim and free and
                     ------------
clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies,
imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, excluding taxes imposed on or
measured by the net income of any Affected Party by the jurisdictions under the
laws of which such Affected Party is organized or by any political subdivisions
thereof (such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges and
withholdings being "Indemnified Taxes").  If the Borrower shall be required by
                    -----------------
law to deduct any Indemnified Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable
hereunder, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as much as shall be necessary
so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to
additional sums payable under this Section 2.08) the Affected Party entitled to
                                   ------------
receive any such payment receives an amount equal to the sum it would have
received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such
deductions, and (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the
relevant taxing or other authority in accordance with applicable law.  Within 30
days after the date of any payment of Indemnified Taxes, the Borrower shall
furnish to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a
receipt evidencing payment thereof.  The Borrower shall indemnify any Affected
Party from and against, and, within ten days of demand therefor, pay any
Affected Party for, the full amount of Indemnified Taxes (together with any
taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 2.08)
                                                                ------------
paid by such Affected Party and any

liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with
respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally
asserted.

          Section 2.09. Capital Requirements; Additional Costs.
                        --------------------------------------

          (a)  If the Administrative Agent on behalf of any Affected Party shall
have determined that the adoption after the date hereof of any law, treaty,
governmental (or quasi-governmental) rule, regulation, guideline or order
regarding capital adequacy, reserve requirements or similar requirements or
compliance by such Affected Party with any request or directive regarding
capital adequacy, reserve requirements or similar requirements (whether or not
having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority
increases or would have the effect of increasing the amount of capital, reserves
or other funds required to be maintained by such Affected Party against
commitments made by it under this Agreement or any other Related Document and
thereby reducing the rate of return on such Affected Party's capital as a
consequence of its commitments hereunder or thereunder, then the Borrower shall
from time to time upon demand by the Administrative Agent pay to the
Administrative Agent on behalf of such Affected Party additional amounts
sufficient to compensate such Affected Party for such reduction together with
interest thereon from the date of any such demand until payment in full at the
applicable Index Rate.  A certificate as to the amount of that reduction and
showing the basis of the computation thereof submitted by the Administrative
Agent to the Borrower shall be final, binding and conclusive on the parties
hereto (absent manifest error) for all purposes.

          (b)  If, due to any Regulatory Change, there shall be any increase in
the cost to any Affected Party of agreeing to make or making, funding or
maintaining any commitment hereunder or under any other Related Document,
including with respect to any Advances or Outstanding Principal Amount, or any
reduction in any amount receivable by such Affected Party hereunder or
thereunder, including with respect to any Advances or Outstanding Principal
Amount (any such increase in cost or reduction in amounts receivable are
hereinafter referred to as "Additional Costs"), then the Borrower shall, from
                            ----------------
time to time upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay to the Administrative
Agent on behalf of such Affected Party additional amounts sufficient to
compensate such Affected Party such Additional Costs together with interest
thereon from the date demanded until payment in full thereof at the applicable
Index Rate.  Each Affected Party agrees that, as promptly as practicable after
it becomes aware of any circumstance referred to above that would result in any
such Additional Costs, it shall, to the extent not inconsistent with its
internal policies of general application, use reasonable commercial efforts to
minimize costs and expenses incurred by it and payable to it by the Borrower
pursuant to this Section 2.09(b).
                 ---------------

          (c)  Determinations by any Affected Party for purposes of this Section
                                                                         -------
2.09 of the effect of any Regulatory Change on its costs of making, funding or
----
maintaining any commitments hereunder or under any other Related Document or on
amounts payable to it hereunder or thereunder or of the additional amounts
required to compensate such Affected Party in respect of any Additional Costs
shall be set forth in a written notice to the Borrower in reasonable detail and
which is calculated the same as for comparable claims with respect to similarly
situated sellers or borrowers of the Affected Party and shall be final, binding
and conclusive on the Borrower (absent manifest error) for all purposes.

          (d)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if the
introduction of or any change in any law or regulation (or any change in the
interpretation thereof) shall make it unlawful, or any central bank or other
Governmental Authority shall assert that it is unlawful, for any Lender to agree
to make or to make or to continue to fund or maintain any LIBOR Rate Advance,
then, unless that Lender is able to make or to continue to fund or to maintain
such LIBOR Rate Advance at another branch or office of that Lender without, in
that Lender's opinion, adversely affecting it or its Advances or the income
obtained therefrom, on notice thereof and demand therefor by such Lender to
Borrower through Administrative Agent, (i) the obligation of such Lender to
agree to make or to make or to continue to fund or maintain LIBOR Rate Advances
shall terminate and (ii) Borrower shall forthwith prepay in full all outstanding
LIBOR Rate Advances owing to such Lender, together with interest accrued
thereon, unless Borrower, within five (5) Business Days after the delivery of
such notice and demand, converts all such LIBOR Rate Advances into Index Rate
Loans.

          Section 2.10.  Breakage Costs.  To induce Lenders to provide the
                         --------------
LIBOR Rate option on the terms provided herein, if (i) any LIBOR Rate Advances
are, except by reason of the requirements in Section 2.03(c), repaid in whole or
                                             ---------------
in part prior to the last day of any applicable LIBOR Period (whether that
repayment is made pursuant to any other provision of this Agreement or any other
Related Document or is the result of acceleration, by operation of law or
otherwise); (ii) the Borrower shall default in payment when due of the principal
amount of or interest on any LIBOR Rate Advance; (iii) the Borrower shall
default in making any borrowing of, conversion into or continuation of LIBOR
Rate Advances after the Borrower has given notice requesting the same in
accordance herewith (including any failure to satisfy conditions precedent to
the making of any LIBOR Rate Advances); or (iv) the Borrower shall fail to make
any prepayment of a LIBOR Rate Advance after the Borrower has given a notice
thereof in accordance herewith, then, in any such case, the Borrower shall
indemnify and hold harmless each Lender from and against all losses, costs and
expenses resulting from or arising from any of the foregoing (any such loss,
cost or expense, "Breakage Costs").  Such indemnification shall include any loss
                  --------------
(including loss of margin) or expense arising from the reemployment of funds
obtained by it or from fees payable to terminate deposits from which such funds
were obtained.  Each Lender shall make a good faith effort to reinvest any
repayment proceeds received from the Borrower in order to mitigate the losses
which would otherwise be reimbursable under this Section 2.10.  For the purpose
                                                 ------------
of calculating amounts payable to a Lender under this subsection, each Lender
shall be deemed to have actually funded its relevant LIBOR Rate Advance through
the purchase of a deposit bearing interest at the LIBOR Rate in an amount equal
to the amount of that LIBOR Rate Advance and having a maturity comparable to the
relevant LIBOR Period; provided, however, that each Lender may fund each of its
                       --------  -------
LIBOR Rate Advances in any manner it sees fit, and the foregoing assumption
shall be utilized only for the calculation of amounts payable under this
subsection.  This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and
the payment of the Revolving Notes and all other amounts payable hereunder.  The
determination by such Lender of the amount of any such loss or expense shall be
set forth in a written notice to the Borrower in reasonable detail and shall be
final, binding and conclusive on the Borrower (absent manifest error) for all
purposes.

          Section 2.11.  Funding Excess.  On each Business Day during the
                         --------------
Revolving Period, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the
Servicer of any Funding

                                       11

Excess on such day, and the Borrower shall deposit the amount of such Funding
Excess in the Collection Account by 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the
immediately succeeding Business Day.

the Borrower nor any of its Affiliates included in the Parent Group has agreed

written statement furnished by or on behalf of the Borrower to any Lender or the
Administrative Agent pursuant to

<PAGE>

the terms of this Agreement or any of the other Related Documents is true and
accurate in every material respect, and none of this Agreement, any Borrowing
Base Certificate or any of the other Related Documents, or any written statement
furnished by or on behalf of the Borrower to any Lender or the Administrative
Agent pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any of the other Related
Documents is misleading as a result of the failure to include therein a material
fact (it being understood that the foregoing shall not apply to projections of
(i) future financial information or (ii) information related to Receivables
which information shall be based upon the Parent's reasonable good faith
estimates).

          (k)  ERISA.  The Borrower is in compliance with ERISA and has not

security," as such terms are defined in Regulation U of the Federal Reserve
Board as now and from time to time hereafter in effect (such securities being
referred to herein as "Margin Stock").  The Borrower owns no Margin Stock, and
                       ------------
no portion of the proceeds of the Advances made hereunder will be used, directly
or indirectly, for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any Margin Stock, for
the purpose of reducing or retiring any Debt that was originally incurred to
purchase or carry any Margin Stock or for any other purpose that might cause any
portion of such proceeds to be considered a "purpose credit" within the meaning
of Regulations T, U or X of the Federal Reserve Board.  The Borrower will not
take or permit to be taken any action that might cause any Related Document to
violate any regulation of the Federal Reserve Board.

          (n)  Nonapplicability of Bulk Sales Laws.  No transaction contemplated
               -----------------------------------
by this Agreement or any of the Related Documents requires compliance with any
bulk sales act or similar law.

          (o)  Government Regulation.  The Borrower is not an "investment
               ---------------------
company" or an "affiliated person" of, or "promoter" or "principal underwriter"
for, an "investment company," as such terms are defined in the Investment

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

                                       19

          (vii)  (A) the Borrower maintains its assets separately from the

          (xii)  the Borrower does not act as agent for any member of the Parent
Group, but instead presents itself to the public as a legal entity separate from
each such member and independently engaged in the business of purchasing and
financing Receivables;

          (xiii) the Borrower maintains at least two independent directors each

               ---------------------------------  ----------------
banks and other financial institutions at which the Borrower maintains deposit

and the Borrower Account, and such schedule correctly identifies the name,
address and telephone number of each depository, the name in which the account
is held, a description of the purpose of the account, and the complete account
number therefor. The Borrower Account and each Lockbox Account constitute
deposit accounts within the meaning of the UCC. The Borrower (or the Servicer on
its behalf) has delivered to the Administrative Agent a fully executed agreement
pursuant to which the Borrower Account Bank (with respect to the Borrower
Account) and each Lockbox Account Bank (with respect to each Lockbox Account)
has agreed to comply with all instructions originated by the Administrative
Agent directing the disposition of funds in the Borrower Account and each
Lockbox Account without further consent by the Borrower, the Servicer or any
Originator. None of the Borrower Account or any Lockbox Account is in the name
of any person other than the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, and the
Borrower has not consented to the Borrower Account Bank or any Lockbox Account
Bank following the instructions of any Person other than the Administrative
Agent. Accordingly, the Administrative Agent has a first priority perfected
security interest in the Borrower Account and each Lockbox Account, and all
funds on deposit therein.

               (ii)  Eligibility. Each Transferred Receivable designated as an
                     -----------
     Eligible Receivable in each Borrowing Base Certificate constitutes an
     Eligible Receivable as of the date specified in such Borrowing Base
     Certificate.

               (iii) No Material Adverse Effect. The Borrower has no actual
                     --------------------------
     knowledge of any fact (including any defaults by the Obligor thereunder on
     any other Receivable) that would cause it or should have caused it to
     expect that any payments on any Transferred Receivable designated as an
     Eligible Receivable in any Borrowing Base Certificate will not be paid in
     full when due or that has caused it to expect any material adverse effect
     on any such Transferred Receivable.

               (iv)  Nonavoidability of Transfers. The Borrower shall (A) have
                     ----------------------------

     to clause (b) of Section 4.04 of the Sale Agreement, in each case in an
        ----------    ------------
     amount that constitutes fair consideration and reasonably equivalent value
     therefor. Each Sale of a Sold Receivable effected pursuant to the terms of
     the Sale Agreement shall not have been made for or on account of an
     antecedent debt owed by any Originator to the Borrower and no such Sale is
     or may be avoidable or subject to avoidance under any bankruptcy laws,
     rules or regulations.

          (s)  Representations and Warranties in Other Related Documents. Each
               ---------------------------------------------------------
of the representations and warranties of the Borrower contained in the Related
Documents (other than this Agreement) is true and correct in all respects and
the Borrower hereby makes each such representation and warranty to, and for the
benefit of, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent as if the same were set
forth in full herein.

     and other property from time to time on deposit therein. The Borrower shall
     not make or cause to be made, or have any ability to make or cause to be
     made, any withdrawals from any Lockbox Account except as provided in
     Section 6.01(b)(ii).
     -------------------

               (ii)  The Borrower and the Servicer have instructed all existing
     Obligors of Transferred Receivables, and shall instruct all future Obligors
     of such Receivables, to make payments in respect thereof only (A) by check
     or money order mailed to one or more lockboxes or post office boxes under
     the control of the Administrative Agent (each a "Lockbox" and collectively
                                                      -------
     the "Lockboxes") or (B) by wire transfer or moneygram directly to a Lockbox
          ---------
     Account.  Schedule 4.01(q) lists all Lockboxes and all Lockbox Banks at
               ----------------
     which the Borrower maintains Lockbox Accounts as of the Effective Date, and
     such schedule correctly identifies (1) with respect to each such Lockbox
     Bank, the name, address and telephone number thereof, (2) with respect to
     each Lockbox Account, the name in which such account is held and the
     complete account number therefor, and (3) with respect to each Lockbox, the
     lockbox number and address thereof.  The Borrower and the Servicer shall
     endorse, to the extent necessary, all checks or other instruments received
     in any Lockbox so that the same can be deposited in the Lockbox Account, in
     the form so received (with all necessary endorsements), on the first
     Business Day after the date of receipt thereof.  In addition, each of the
     Borrower and the Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited into a
     Lockbox Account all cash, checks, money orders or other proceeds of
     Transferred Receivables or Borrower Collateral received by it other than in
     a Lockbox or a Lockbox Account, in the form so received (with all necessary
     endorsements), not later than the close of business on the first Business
     Day following the date of receipt thereof, and until so deposited all such
     items or other proceeds shall be held in trust for the benefit of the
     Administrative Agent.  Neither the Borrower nor the Servicer shall make any
     deposits into a Lockbox or any Lockbox Account except in accordance with
     the terms of this Agreement or any other Related Document.

               (iii) If, for any reason, a Lockbox Account Agreement terminates
     or any Lockbox Bank fails to comply with its obligations under the Lockbox
     Account Agreement to which it is a party, then the Borrower shall promptly
     notify all Obligors of Transferred Receivables who had previously been
     instructed to make wire payments to a Lockbox Account maintained at any
     such Lockbox Bank to make all future payments to a new Lockbox Account in
     accordance with this Section 6.01(a)(iii).  The Borrower shall not close
                          --------------------
     any such Lockbox Account unless it shall have (A) received the prior
     written consent of the Administrative Agent, (B) established a new account
     with the same Lockbox Bank or with a new depositary institution
     satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (C) entered into an agreement
     covering such new account with such Lockbox Bank or with such new
     depositary institution substantially in the form of such Lockbox Account
     Agreement or that is satisfactory in all respects to the Administrative
     Agent (whereupon, for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Related
     Documents, such new account shall become a Lockbox Account, such new
     agreement shall become a Lockbox Account Agreement and any new depositary
     institution shall become a Lockbox Bank), and (D) taken all such action as
     the Administrative Agent shall require to grant and perfect a first
     priority Lien in such new Lockbox Account to the Lender under

                                       27

     Section 8.01 of this Agreement. Except as permitted by this Section
     ------------                                                -------
     6.01(a), neither the Borrower nor the Servicer shall open any new Lockbox
     -------
     or Lockbox Account without the prior written consent of the Administrative
     Agent.

          (b)  Collection Account.
               ------------------

               (i)   The Lenders have established and shall maintain the
     Collection Account with Bankers Trust Company (the "Depositary").  The
     Collection Account shall be registered in the name of the Administrative
     Agent and the Administrative Agent shall, subject to the terms of this
     Agreement, have exclusive dominion and control thereof and of all monies,
     instruments and other property from time to time on deposit therein.

               (ii)  The Borrower shall instruct each Lockbox Bank to transfer,
     and the Borrower hereby grants the Administrative Agent the authority to
     instruct each such Lockbox Bank to transfer, on each Business Day in same
     day funds, all available funds in each Lockbox Account to the Collection
     Account.  The Lenders and the Administrative Agent may deposit into the
     Collection Account from time to time all monies, instruments and other
     property received by any of them as proceeds of the Transferred
     Receivables.

               (iii) If, for any reason, the Depositary wishes to resign as
     depositary of the Collection Account or fails to carry out the instructions
     of the Administrative Agent, then the Administrative Agent shall promptly
     notify the Lenders.  Neither the Lenders nor the Administrative Agent shall
     close the Collection Account unless (A) a new deposit account has been
     established with the Depositary, (B) the Lenders and the Administrative
     Agent have entered into an agreement covering such new account with such
     new depositary institution satisfactory in all respects to the
     Administrative Agent (whereupon such new account shall become the
     Collection Account for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Related
     Documents), and (C) the Lenders and the Administrative Agent have taken all
     such action as the Administrative Agent shall require to grant and perfect
     a first priority Lien in such new Collection Account to the Administrative
     Agent on behalf of the Lenders.

          (c)  Borrower Account.
               ----------------

               (i)   The Borrower has established the Borrower Account and
     agrees that the Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and
     control of such Borrower Account and all monies, instruments and other
     property from time to time on deposit therein.

               (ii)  The Administrative Agent hereby agrees that until such time
     as it instructs the Borrower Account Bank otherwise, the Borrower shall
     have the right to give instruction for the withdrawal, transfer or payment
     of funds on deposit in the Borrower Account.  The Administrative Agent
     further agrees that it shall not instruct the Borrower Account Bank to no
     longer accept instructions from the Borrower unless an Incipient
     Termination Event or a Termination Event shall have occurred and be
     continuing.

                              SERVICER PROVISIONS

          Section 7.01. Appointment of the Servicer. Each of the Lenders hereby
                        ---------------------------
appoints the Servicer as its agent, and the Borrower hereby acknowledges such
appointment, to service the Transferred Receivables and enforce its rights and
interests in and under each Transferred Receivable and Contract therefor and to
serve in such capacity until the termination of its responsibilities pursuant to
Sections 9.02 or 11.01. In connection therewith, the Servicer hereby accepts
-------------    -----
such appointment and agrees to perform the duties and obligations set forth
herein.  The Servicer may, with the prior written consent of each Lender and the
Administrative Agent, subcontract with a Sub-Servicer for the collection,
servicing or administration of the Transferred Receivables; provided, that (a)
                                                            --------
the Servicer shall remain liable for the performance of the duties and
obligations of such Sub-Servicer pursuant to the terms hereof and (b) any Sub-
Servicing Agreement that may be entered into and any other transactions or
services relating to the Transferred Receivables involving a Sub-Servicer shall
be deemed to be between the Sub-Servicer and the Servicer alone, and the Lenders
and the Administrative Agent shall not be deemed parties thereto and shall have
no obligations, duties or liabilities with respect to the Sub-Servicer.

          Section 7.02. Duties and Responsibilities of the Servicer. Subject to
                        -------------------------------------------
the provisions of this Agreement, the Servicer shall conduct the servicing,
administration and collection of the Transferred Receivables and shall take, or
cause to be taken, all actions that (i) may be necessary or advisable to
service, administer and collect each Transferred Receivable from time to time,
(ii) the Servicer would take if the Transferred Receivables were owned by the
Servicer, and (iii) are consistent with industry practice for the servicing of
such Transferred Receivables.

          Section 7.03. Collections on Receivables.
                        --------------------------

          (a) In the event that the Servicer is unable to determine the specific
Transferred Receivables on which Collections have been received from the Obligor
thereunder, the parties agree for purposes of this Agreement only that such
Collections shall be deemed to have been received on such Receivables in the
order in which they were originated with respect to such Obligor.  In the event
that the Servicer is unable to determine the specific Transferred Receivables on
which discounts, offsets or other non-cash reductions have been granted or made
with respect to the Obligor thereunder, the parties agree for purposes of this
Agreement only that such reductions shall be deemed to have been granted or made
(i) prior to a Termination Event, on such Receivables as determined by the
Servicer, and (ii) from and after the occurrence of a Termination Event, in the
reverse order in which they were originated with respect to such Obligor.

          (b) If the Servicer determines that amounts unrelated to the
Transferred Receivables (the "Unrelated Amounts") have been deposited in the
                              -----------------
Collection Account, then the Servicer shall provide written evidence thereof to
the Lenders and the Administrative Agent no later than the first Business Day
following the day on which the Servicer had actual knowledge

                                       29
<PAGE>

thereof, which evidence shall be provided in writing and shall be otherwise
satisfactory to each such Affected Party. Upon receipt of any such notice, the
Administrative Agent shall, if such amounts have not been applied to the
Borrower Obligations, segregate the Unrelated Amounts and the same shall not be
deemed to constitute Collections on Transferred Receivables.

          Section 7.04. Authorization of the Servicer. Each of the Lenders
                        -----------------------------
hereby authorizes the Servicer, and the Borrower acknowledges such
authorization, to take any and all reasonable steps in its name and on its
behalf necessary or desirable and not inconsistent with the rights of the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder, in the determination of the
Servicer, to (a) collect all amounts due under any Transferred Receivable,
including endorsing its name on checks and other instruments representing
Collections on such Receivable, and execute and deliver any and all instruments
of satisfaction or cancellation or of partial or full release or discharge and
all other comparable instruments with respect to any such Receivable and (b)
after any Transferred Receivable becomes a Delinquent Receivable or a Defaulted
Receivable and to the extent permitted under and in compliance with applicable
law and regulations, commence proceedings with respect to the enforcement of
payment of any such Receivable and the Contract therefor and adjust, settle or
compromise any payments due thereunder, in each case to the same extent as the
applicable Originator could have done if it had continued to own such
Receivable. Each Originator, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each
Lender shall furnish the Servicer with any powers of attorney and other
documents necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to carry out its
servicing and administrative duties hereunder. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall have
the absolute and unlimited right to direct the Servicer (i) to commence or
settle any legal action to enforce collection of any Transferred Receivable or
(ii) to foreclose upon, repossess or take any other action that the
Administrative Agent deems necessary or advisable with respect thereto. In no
event shall the Servicer be entitled to make any Affected Party a party to any
Litigation without such Affected Party's express prior written consent, or to
make the Borrower a party to any Litigation without the Administrative Agent's
consent.

          Section 7.05. Servicing Fees.  As compensation for its servicing
                        --------------
activities and as reimbursement for its reasonable expenses in connection
therewith, the Servicer shall be entitled to receive the Servicing Fees in
accordance with Section 2.07.  The Servicer shall be required to pay for all
                ------------
expenses incurred by it in connection with its activities hereunder (including
any payments to accountants, counsel or any other Person) and shall not be
entitled to any payment therefor other than the Servicing Fees.

          Section 7.06. Representations and Warranties of the Servicer.  To
                        ----------------------------------------------
induce the Lenders to make Advances from time to time and the Administrative
Agent to take any action required to be performed by it hereunder, the Servicer
makes the following representations and warranties to each Lender and the
Administrative Agent on the Effective Date and each Advance Date, which shall
survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement:

          (a)  Corporate Existence; Compliance with Law.  The Servicer (i) is a
               ----------------------------------------
corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws
of its jurisdiction of incorporation; (ii) is duly qualified to conduct business
and is in good standing in each other jurisdiction where its ownership or lease
of property or the conduct of its business

                                       30
<PAGE>

requires such qualification; (iii) has the requisite corporate power and
authority and the legal right to own, pledge, mortgage or otherwise encumber and
operate its properties, to lease the property it operates under lease, and to
conduct its business, in each case, as now, heretofore and proposed to be
conducted; (iv) has all licenses, permits, consents or approvals from or by, and
has made all filings with, and has given all notices to, all Governmental
Authorities having jurisdiction, to the extent required for such ownership,
operation and conduct; (v) is in compliance with its charter and bylaws; and
(vi) subject to specific representations set forth herein regarding ERISA, tax
and other laws, is in compliance with all applicable provisions of law, except
(in the case of each of the foregoing clauses (ii) through (vi)) where the
failure to comply, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

          (b) Corporate Power, Authorization, Enforceable Obligations.  The
              -------------------------------------------------------
execution, delivery and performance by the Servicer of this Agreement and the
other Related Documents to which it is a party and, solely with respect to
clause (vii) below, the exercise by each of the Borrower, the Lenders or the
Administrative Agent of any of its rights and remedies under any Related
Document to which it is a party (i) are within the Servicer's corporate power;
(ii) have been duly authorized by all necessary or proper corporate and
shareholder action; (iii) do not contravene any provision of the Servicer's
charter or bylaws; (iv) do not violate any law or regulation, or any order or
decree of any court or Governmental Authority; (v) do not conflict with or
result in the breach or termination of, constitute a default under or accelerate
or permit the acceleration of any performance required by, any indenture,
mortgage, deed of trust, lease, agreement or other instrument to which the
Servicer is a party or by which the Servicer or any of the property of the
Servicer is bound; (vi) do not result in the creation or imposition of any
Adverse Claim upon any of the property of the Servicer; and (vii) do not require
the consent or approval of any Governmental Authority or any other Person,
except those which have been duly obtained, made or complied with prior to the
Closing Date as provided in Section 3.01(b).  On or prior to the Effective Date,
                            ---------------
each of the Related Documents to which the Servicer is a party shall have been
duly executed and delivered by the Servicer and each such Related Document shall
then constitute a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Servicer
enforceable against it in accordance with its terms.

          (c) No Litigation.  Other than the Imperial Bankruptcy Proceeding, no
              -------------
Litigation is now pending or, to the knowledge of the Servicer, threatened
against the Servicer that (i) challenges the Servicer's right or power to enter
into or perform any of its obligations under the Related Documents to which it
is a party, or the validity or enforceability of any Related Document or any
action taken thereunder, (ii) seeks to prevent the transfer, sale, pledge or
contribution of any Receivable or the consummation of any of the transactions
contemplated under this Agreement or the other Related Documents, or (iii)
except as set forth on Schedule 7.06(c), has a reasonable risk of being
                       ----------------
determined adversely to the Servicer and that, if so determined, could have a
Material Adverse Effect.

          (d) Solvency.  Both before and after giving effect to (i) the
              --------
transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Related Documents and
(ii) the payment and accrual of all transaction costs in connection with the
foregoing, the Servicer is and will be Solvent.

                                       31
<PAGE>

          (e) Taxes.  All tax returns, reports and statements, including
              -----
information returns, required by any Governmental Authority to be filed by the
Servicer and each of its Affiliates included in the Parent Group have been filed
with the appropriate Governmental Authority and all charges have been paid prior
to the date on which any fine, penalty, interest or late charge may be added
thereto for nonpayment thereof (or any such fine, penalty, interest, late charge
or loss has been paid), excluding charges or other amounts being contested in
accordance with Section 5.01(e) or other amounts not paid by any member of the
                ---------------
Parent Group other than the Servicer the nonpayment of which would not have a
Material Adverse Effect.  Proper and accurate amounts have been withheld by the
Servicer or such Affiliate from its respective employees for all periods in full
and complete compliance with all applicable federal, state, local and foreign
laws and such withholdings have been timely paid to the respective Governmental
Authorities.  Schedule 7.06(e) sets forth as of the Closing Date (i) those
              ----------------
taxable years for which the Servicer's or such Affiliates' tax returns are
currently being audited by the IRS or any other applicable Governmental
Authority and (ii) any assessments or threatened assessments in connection with
any such audit or otherwise currently outstanding.  Except as described on
Schedule 7.06(e), neither the Servicer nor any such Affiliate has executed or
----------------
filed with the IRS or any other Governmental Authority any agreement or other
document extending, or having the effect of extending, the period for assessment
or collection of any charges.  The Servicer is not liable for any charges: (A)
under any agreement (including any tax sharing agreements) or (B) to the best of
the Servicer's knowledge, as a transferee.  As of the Closing Date, neither the
Servicer nor any of its Affiliates included in the Parent Group has agreed or
been requested to make any adjustment under IRC Section 481(a), by reason of a
change in accounting method or otherwise, that would have a Material Adverse
Effect.

          (f) Full Disclosure.  To the extent prepared by or based upon
              ---------------
information provided by the Servicer, all information contained in this
Agreement, any Borrowing Base Certificate or any of the other Related Documents,
or any written statement furnished to any Lender or the Administrative Agent
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any of the other Related Documents is
true and accurate in every material respect, and none of this Agreement, any
Borrowing Base Certificate or any of the other Related Documents, or any written
statement furnished to any Lender or the Administrative Agent pursuant to the
terms of this Agreement or any of the other Related Documents is misleading as a
result of the failure to include therein a material fact (it being understood
that the foregoing shall not apply to projections of (i) future financial
information or (ii) information related to Receivables which information shall
be based upon the Parent's reasonable good faith estimates).

          (g) ERISA.  The Servicer is in compliance with ERISA and has not
              -----
incurred and does not expect to incur any liabilities (except for premium
payments arising in the ordinary course of business) payable to the PBGC under
ERISA except with respect to instances of the foregoing that would not be
reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

          (h) Brokers.  No broker or finder acting on behalf of the Servicer was
              -------
employed or utilized in connection with this Agreement or the other Related
Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby and the Servicer
has no obligation to any Person in respect of any finder's or brokerage fees in
connection therewith.

                                       32
<PAGE>

          (i) Margin Regulations.  The Servicer is not engaged in the business
              ------------------
of extending credit for the purpose of "purchasing" or "carrying" any "margin
security," as such terms are defined in Regulation U of the Federal Reserve
Board as now and from time to time hereafter in effect (such securities being
referred to herein as "Margin Stock").  The Servicer owns no Margin Stock, and
no portion of the proceeds of the Advances made hereunder will be used, directly
or indirectly, for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any Margin Stock, for
the purpose of reducing or retiring any Debt that was originally incurred to
purchase or carry any Margin Stock or for any other purpose that might cause any
portion of such proceeds to be considered a "purpose credit" within the meaning
of Regulations T, U or X of the Federal Reserve Board.  The Servicer will not
take or permit to be taken any action that might cause any Related Document to
violate any regulation of the Federal Reserve Board.

          (j) Government Regulation.  The Servicer is not an "investment
              ---------------------
company" or an "affiliated person" of, or "promoter" or "principal underwriter"
for, an "investment company," as such terms are defined in the Investment
Company Act.

          (k) Deposit and Disbursement Accounts.  Schedule 4.01(q) lists all
              ---------------------------------   ----------------
banks and other financial institutions at which the Servicer maintains deposit
or other bank accounts as of the Closing Date, including any Lockbox Accounts,
and such schedule correctly identifies the name, address and telephone number of
each depository, the name in which the account is held, a description of the
purpose of the account, and the complete account number therefor.

          (l) No Material Adverse Effect.  The Servicer has no actual knowledge
              --------------------------
of any fact (including any defaults by the Obligor thereunder on any other
Receivable) that would cause it or should have caused it to expect that any
payments on any Transferred Receivable designated as an Eligible Receivable in
any Borrowing Base Certificate will not be paid in full when due or that has
caused it to expect any material adverse effect on any such Transferred
Receivable.

          (m) Representations and Warranties in Other Related Documents.  Each
              ---------------------------------------------------------
of the representations and warranties of the Servicer contained in the Related
Documents (other than this Agreement) is true and correct in all respects and
the Servicer hereby makes each such representation and warranty to, and for the
benefit of, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent as if the same were set
forth in full herein.

          Section 7.07. Covenants of the Servicer. The Servicer covenants and
                        -------------------------
agrees that from and after the Effective Date and until the Termination Date:

          (a) Compliance with Agreements and Applicable Laws.  The Servicer
              ----------------------------------------------
shall perform each of its obligations under this Agreement and the other Related
Documents and comply with all federal, state and local laws and regulations
applicable to it and the Transferred Receivables, including those relating to
truth in lending, retail installment sales, fair credit billing, fair credit
reporting, equal credit opportunity, fair debt collection practices, privacy,
licensing, taxation, ERISA and labor matters and environmental laws and
environmental permits.

          (b) Maintenance of Existence and Conduct of Business.  The Servicer
              ------------------------------------------------
shall:  (i) do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in
full force and effect its corporate existence and its rights and franchises;
(ii) continue to conduct its business

                                       33
<PAGE>

substantially as now conducted or as otherwise permitted hereunder and in
accordance with the terms of its certificate of incorporation and bylaws, (iii)
at all times maintain, preserve and protect all of its assets and properties
used or useful in the conduct of its business, including all licenses, permits,
charters and registrations, and keep the same in good repair, working order and
condition in all material respects (taking into consideration ordinary wear and
tear) and from time to time make, or cause to be made, all necessary or
appropriate repairs, replacements and improvements thereto consistent with
industry practices; and (iv) transact business only in such corporate and trade
names as are set forth in Schedule 7.07(b).
                          ----------------

              ----------------------
deposited promptly into a Lockbox Account, and in any event no later than the
first Business Day after receipt thereof, all Collections it may receive with
respect to any Transferred Receivable.

          (d) ERISA.  The Servicer shall give the Administrative Agent prompt
              -----
written notice of any event that could result in the imposition of a Lien under
Section 412 of the IRC or Section 302 or 4068 of ERISA.

          (e) Compliance with Credit and Collection Policies.  The Servicer
              ----------------------------------------------
shall comply in all respects with the Credit and Collection Policies with
respect to each Transferred Receivable and the Contract therefor.  The Servicer
shall not amend, waive or modify any term or provision of the Credit and
Collection Policies.

          (f) Ownership of Transferred Receivables.  The Servicer shall identify

the occurrence and during the continuance of a Termination Event, the
Administrative Agent, may deem necessary or desirable to enforce collection of

Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing without prior notice to
the Borrower or the Servicer, notify any Obligor under any Transferred
Receivable or obligors under the Borrower Assigned Agreements of the assignment

be, to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders hereunder and direct
that payments of all amounts due or to become due to the Borrower thereunder be
made directly to the Administrative Agent or any servicer, collection agent or
lockbox or other account designated by the Administrative Agent and, upon such
notification and at the sole cost and expense of the Borrower, the
Administrative Agent may enforce collection of any such Transferred Receivable
or the Borrower Assigned Agreements and adjust, settle or compromise the amount
or payment thereof.  The Administrative Agent shall provide prompt notice to the
Borrower and the Servicer of any such notification of assignment  or direction
of payment to the Obligors under any Transferred Receivables.

                                             ------------
Administrative Agent may exercise in respect of the Borrower Collateral, in
addition to any and all other rights and remedies granted to it hereunder, under
any other Related Document or under any other instrument or agreement securing,
evidencing or relating to the Borrower Obligations or otherwise available to it,
all of the rights and remedies of a secured party upon default under the UCC
(such rights and remedies to be cumulative and nonexclusive), and, in addition,
may take the following actions:

          (a)   The Administrative Agent may, without notice to the Borrower
except as required by law and at any time or from time to time, charge, offset
or otherwise apply amounts payable to the Borrower from the Collection Account
or any Lockbox Account against all or any part of the Borrower Obligations.

          (b)   The Administrative Agent may, without notice except as specified
below, solicit and accept bids for and sell the Borrower Collateral or any part
thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any exchange,
broker's board or any of the Lenders', or Agent's offices or elsewhere, for
cash, on credit or for future delivery, and upon such other terms as the
Administrative Agent may deem commercially reasonable. The Administrative Agent
shall have the right to conduct such sales on the Borrower's premises or
elsewhere and shall have the right to use any of the Borrower's premises without
charge for such sales at such time or times as the Administrative Agent deems
necessary or advisable. The Borrower agrees that, to the extent notice of sale
shall be required by law, at least ten Business Days' notice to the Borrower of
the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale
is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. The Administrative Agent
shall not be obligated to make any sale of Borrower Collateral regardless of
notice of sale having been given. The Administrative Agent may adjourn any
public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place
fixed for such sale, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the
time and place to which it was so adjourned. Every such sale shall operate to
divest all right, title, interest, claim and demand whatsoever of the Borrower
in and to the Borrower Collateral so sold, and shall be a perpetual bar, both at
law and in equity, against each Originator, the Borrower, any Person claiming
the Borrower Collateral sold through any Originator or the Borrower, and their
respective successors or assigns. The Administrative Agent shall deposit the net
proceeds of any such sale in the Collection Account and such proceeds shall be
applied against all or any part of the Borrower Obligations.

          (c)   Upon the completion of any sale under Section 10.01(b), the
                                                      ----------------
Borrower or the Servicer shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the purchaser
or purchasers at such sale on the date thereof, or within a reasonable time
thereafter if it shall be impracticable to make immediate delivery, all of the
Borrower Collateral sold on such date, but in any event full title and right of
possession to such property shall vest in such purchaser or purchasers upon the
completion of such sale. Nevertheless, if so requested by the Administrative
Agent or by any such purchaser, the Borrower shall confirm any such sale or
transfer by executing and delivering to such purchaser all proper instruments of
conveyance and transfer and releases as may be designated in any such request.

                                  ----------------
Administrative Agent may bid for and purchase the property offered for sale and,
upon compliance with the terms of sale, may hold, retain and dispose of such
property without further accountability therefor.

          (e)   The Administrative Agent may exercise, at the sole cost and
expense of the Borrower, any and all rights and remedies of the Borrower under
or in connection with the Borrower Assigned Agreements or the other Borrower
Collateral, including any and all rights of the Borrower to demand or otherwise
require payment of any amount under, or performance of any provisions of, the
Borrower Assigned Agreements.

          Section 10.02. Exercise of Remedies. No failure or delay on the part
                         --------------------
of the Administrative Agent in exercising any right, power or privilege under
this Agreement and no course of dealing between any Originator, the Borrower or
the Servicer, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent, on the other hand,
shall operate as a waiver of such right, power or privilege, nor shall any
single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege under this Agreement
preclude any other or further exercise of such right, power or privilege or the
exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies under
this Agreement are cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently, and are
not exclusive of any rights or remedies that the Administrative Agent would
otherwise have at law or in equity. No notice to or demand on any party hereto
shall entitle such party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or
other circumstances, or constitute a waiver of the right of the party providing
such notice or making such demand to any other or further action in any
circumstances without notice or demand.

          Section 10.03. Power of Attorney. On the Closing Date, each of the
                         -----------------
Borrower and the Servicer shall execute and deliver a power of attorney
substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 10.03 (each, a "Power of
                                             -------------           --------
Attorney"). The power of attorney granted pursuant to each Power of Attorney is
--------
a power coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable until all of the
Borrower Obligations are indefeasibly paid or otherwise satisfied in full. The
powers conferred on the Administrative Agent under each Power of Attorney are
solely to protect the Lender's Liens upon and interests in the Borrower
Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Administrative Agent to
exercise any such powers. The Administrative Agent shall not be accountable for
any amount other than amounts that it actually receives as a result of the
exercise of such powers and none of the Administrative Agent's officers,
directors, employees, agents or representatives shall be responsible to the
Borrower or the Servicer for any act or failure to act, except to the extent of
damages attributable to their own gross negligence or willful misconduct as
finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.

          Section 10.04. Continuing Security Interest. This Agreement shall
                         ----------------------------
create a continuing Lien in the Borrower Collateral until the Termination Date.

Administrative Agent and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
shall timely deliver (i) any funds to the Administrative Agent that were
required to be remitted to the Administrative Agent for deposit in the
Collection Account and (ii) all Servicing Records and other information with
respect to the Transferred Receivables to the Successor Servicer at a place
selected by the Successor Servicer. The Servicer shall account for all funds and
shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such other things as may be
required to vest and confirm in the Successor Servicer all rights, powers,
duties, responsibilities, obligations and liabilities of the Servicer.

          (b)   The Servicer shall terminate each existing Sub-Servicing
Agreement and the Successor Servicer shall not be deemed to have assumed any of

          (a) The Administrative Agent may take such action and carry out such
functions under this Agreement as are authorized to be performed by it pursuant
to the terms of this Agreement, any other Related Document or otherwise
contemplated hereby or thereby or are reasonably incidental thereto; provided,
                                                                     --------

its Affiliates or any of their respective directors, officers, agents or
employees shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of
them under or in connection with this Agreement or the other Related Documents,
except for damages solely caused by its or their own gross negligence or willful
misconduct as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.  Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, and notwithstanding any term or
provision hereof to the contrary, the Borrower, the Servicer, and each Lender
hereby acknowledge and agree that the Administrative Agent (a) acts as agent
hereunder for the Lenders and has no duties or obligations to, shall incur no
liabilities or obligations to, and does not act as an agent in any capacity for,
the Borrower (other than, with respect to the Administrative Agent, under the
Power of Attorney with respect to remedial actions) or the Originators, (b) may

selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be
taken by it in good faith in accordance with the advice of such counsel,

due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or
value of this Agreement or the other Related Documents or any other instrument
or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto, (f) shall incur no liability
under or in respect of this Agreement or the other Related Documents by acting
upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing believed by

stated in any notice or other communication hereunder and may rely on the
accuracy of such facts or matters.

          Section 13.03.    GE Capital and Affiliates.  GE Capital and its
                            -------------------------
Affiliates may generally engage in any kind of business with any Obligor, the
Originators, the Borrower, the Servicer, any Lender, any of their respective
Affiliates and any Person who may do business with or own securities of such
Persons or any of their respective Affiliates, all as if GE Capital were not the
Administrative Agent and without the duty to account therefor to any Obligor,
any Originator, the Borrower, the Servicer, any Lender or any other Person.

          Section 13.04.    Lender Credit Decision.  Each Lender acknowledges
                            ----------------------

credit and financial analysis of Borrower and its own decision to enter into
this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and
without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on
such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time,
continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under
this Agreement.

          Section 13.05.    Indemnification.  Lenders agree to indemnify the
                            ---------------
Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by Borrower and without
limiting the obligations of Borrower hereunder), ratably according to their
respective Pro Rata Shares, 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 the Administrative Agent in any way
relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Related Document or
any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent in connection therewith;
provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such
--------  -------
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits,
costs, expenses or disbursements resulting solely from the Administrative
Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct as finally determined by a court
of competent jurisdiction.  Without limiting the foregoing, each Lender agrees
to reimburse the Administrative Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share
of any out-of-pocket expenses (including counsel fees) incurred by the
Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery,
administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through
negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of
rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement and each other Related
Document, to the extent that the Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such
expenses by Borrower.

          Section 13.06.    Successor Administrative Agent.  The Administrative
                            ------------------------------
Agent may resign at any time by giving not less than thirty (30) days' prior
written notice thereof to Lenders and Borrower.  Upon any such resignation, the
Requisite Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor the Administrative
Agent.  If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the
Requisite Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after
the resigning the Administrative Agent's giving notice of resignation, then the
resigning the Administrative Agent may, on behalf of Lenders, appoint a
successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a Lender, if a Lender is willing
to accept such appointment, or otherwise shall be a commercial bank or financial
institution or a subsidiary of a commercial bank or financial institution which
commercial bank or financial institution is organized under the laws of the
United States of America or of any State thereof which has a long-term debt
rating from S&P of A - or better and has a combined capital and surplus of at
least $300,000,000.  If no successor the Administrative Agent has been appointed
pursuant to the foregoing, by the 30th day after the date such notice of
resignation was given by the resigning Administrative Agent, such resignation
shall become effective and the Requisite Lenders shall thereafter perform all
the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the
Requisite Lenders appoint a successor the Administrative Agent as provided
above. Any successor Administrative Agent appointed by Requisite Lenders
hereunder shall be subject to the approval of Borrower, such approval not to be
unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided that such approval shall not be
                                  --------
required if an Incipient Termination Event or an Termination Event shall have
occurred and

                                       53
<PAGE>

be continuing. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the Administrative
Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor
Administrative Agent shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights,
powers, privileges and duties of the resigning Administrative Agent. Upon the
earlier of the acceptance of any appointment as the Administrative Agent
hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent or the effective date of the
resigning Administrative Agent's resignation, the resigning Administrative Agent
shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement and the
other Related Documents, except that any indemnity rights or other rights in
favor of such resigning Agent shall continue. After any resigning Agent's
resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Section 14 shall inure to its
                                              ----------
benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the
Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Related Documents. The
Administrative Agent may be removed at the written direction of the Requisite
Lenders; provided that in so doing, the Lenders shall be deemed to have waived
and released any and all claims they may have against the Administrative Agent.

          Section 13.07.    Setoff and Sharing of Payments.  In addition to any
                            ------------------------------
rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law and not by way of
limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of
any Termination Event, each Lender and each holder of any Revolving Note is
hereby authorized at any time or from time to time, without notice to Borrower
or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set
off and to appropriate and to apply any and all balances held by it at any of
its offices for the account of Borrower (regardless of whether such balances are
then due to Borrower) and any other properties or assets any time held or owing
by that Lender or that holder to or for the credit or for the account of
Borrower against and on account of any of the Obligations which are not paid
when due.  Any Lender or holder of any Revolving Note exercising a right to set
off or otherwise receiving any payment on account of the Borrower Obligations in
excess of its Pro Rata Share thereof shall purchase for cash (and the other
Lenders or holders shall sell) such participations in each such other Lender's
or holder's Pro Rata Share of the Borrower Obligations as would be necessary to
cause such Lender to share the amount so set off or otherwise received with each
other Lender or holder in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares.
Borrower agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by law, that (a) any Lender or
holder may exercise its right to set off with respect to amounts in excess of
its Pro Rata Share of the Borrower Obligations and may sell participations in
such amount so set off to other Lenders and holders and (b) any Lender or
holders so purchasing a participation in the Advances made or other Borrower
Obligations held by other Lenders or holders may exercise all rights of set-off,
bankers' lien, counterclaim or similar rights with respect to such participation
as fully as if such Lender or holder were a direct holder of the Advances and
the other Borrower Obligations in the amount of such participation.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if all or any portion of the set-off amount or
payment otherwise received is thereafter recovered from the Lender that has
exercised the right of set-off, the purchase of participations by that Lender
shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored without interest.

whenever it is provided herein that any notice, demand, request, consent,

entitled to receive such notice.  Failure or delay in delivering copies of any
notice, demand, request, consent, approval, declaration or other communication
to any Person (other than any Lender and the Administrative Agent) designated in
any written notice provided hereunder to receive copies shall in no way
adversely affect the effectiveness of such notice, demand, request, consent,

          Section 14.02.    Binding Effect; Assignability.
                            -----------------------------

          (a) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of
the Borrower, the Servicer, each Lender and the Administrative Agent and their
respective successors and permitted assigns.  Neither the Borrower nor the
Servicer may assign, transfer, hypothecate or otherwise convey any of their
respective rights or obligations hereunder or interests herein without the
express prior written consent of each Lender and the Administrative Agent.  Any
such purported assignment, transfer, hypothecation or other conveyance by the
Borrower or the Servicer without the prior express written consent of the
Requisite Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall be void.

          (b) Borrower hereby consents to any Lender's assignment of, and/or
sale of participations in, at any time or times after the Effective Date, the
Related Documents, Advances, and any Commitment or of any portion thereof or
interest therein, including any Lender's rights, title, interests, remedies,
powers or duties thereunder, whether evidenced by a writing or not.  Any
assignment by a Lender shall (i) require the consent of the Administrative Agent
and the execution of an assignment agreement (an "Assignment Agreement")
                                                  --------------------
substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 14.02(b) and otherwise in
                                             ----------------
form and substance satisfactory to, and acknowledged by, the Administrative
Agent; (ii)  if a partial assignment, in an amount at least equal to $5,000,000
and, after giving effect to any such partial assignment, the assigning Lender
shall have retained Commitments in an amount at least equal to $5,000,000;

                                       55
<PAGE>

and (iv) include a payment to the Administrative Agent by the assignor or
assignee Lender of an assignment fee of $3,500. In the case of an assignment by
a Lender under this Section 14.02, the assignee shall have, to the extent of
                    -------------
such assignment, the same rights, benefits and obligations as it would if it
were a Lender hereunder. The assigning Lender shall be relieved of its
obligations hereunder with respect to its Commitments or assigned portion
thereof from and after the date of such assignment. Borrower hereby acknowledges
and agrees that any assignment will give rise to a direct obligation of Borrower
to the assignee and that the assignee shall be considered to be a "Lender". In
all instances, each Lender's liability to make Advances hereunder shall be
several and not joint and shall be limited to such Lender's Pro Rata Share of
the applicable Commitment. In the event any Lender assigns or otherwise
transfers all or any part of a Revolving Note, such Lender shall so notify
Borrower and Borrower shall, upon the request of such Lender, execute new
Revolving Notes in exchange for the Revolving Notes being assigned.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 14.02(b), any Lender
                                                 ----------------
may at any time pledge or assign all or any portion of such Lender's rights
under this Agreement and the other Related Documents to a Federal Reserve Bank;
provided, however, that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender
--------  -------
from such Lender's obligations hereunder or under any other Related Document.

          (c) Any participation by a Lender of all or any part of its
Commitments shall be in an amount at least equal to $5,000,000, and with the
understanding that all amounts payable by Borrower hereunder shall be determined
as if that Lender had not sold such participation, and that the holder of any
such participation shall not be entitled to require such Lender to take or omit
to take any action hereunder except actions directly affecting (i) any reduction
in the principal amount of, or interest rate or Fees payable with respect to,
any Advance in which such holder participates, (ii) any extension of any
scheduled payment  of the principal amount of any Advance in which such holder
participates or the final maturity date thereof, and (iii) any release of all or
substantially all of the Borrower Collateral (other than in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement or the other Related Documents). Solely for purposes of
Sections 2.08, 2.09, 2.10, 12.01, Borrower acknowledges and agrees that a
-------------  ----  ----  -----
participation shall give rise to a direct obligation of Borrower to the
participant and the participant shall be considered to be a "Lender" for
purposes of such sections (except that, unless Borrower otherwise consents, no
amounts shall be payable to such participant under Section 2.09 or 2.10 to the
                                                   ------------    ----
extent that such amounts would have been required to have been paid under the
circumstances in existence on the effective date of such participation).  Except
as set forth in the preceding sentence Borrower shall have no obligation or duty
to any participant.  Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender (other than
the Lender selling a participation) shall have any duty to any participant and
may continue to deal solely with the Lender selling a participation as if no
such sale had occurred.

          (d) Except as expressly provided in this Section 14.02, no Lender
                                                   -------------
shall, as between Borrower and that Lender, or between Agent and that Lender, be
relieved of any of its obligations hereunder as a result of any sale,
assignment, transfer or negotiation of, or granting of participation in, all or
any part of the Advances, the Revolving Notes or other Obligations owed to such
Lender.

          (e) Borrower shall assist any Lender permitted to sell assignments or

with this Agreement, except that Information may be disclosed (a) to (i) each
Affected Party and (ii) its and each Affected Party's and their respective
Affiliates' directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants,

disclose or use such Information in violation of Regulation FD (17 C.F.R. (S)
243.100-243.103)), (b) any regulatory authority (it being understood that it

Administrative Agent, or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source
other than the Parent or any subsidiary thereof.  For the purposes of this
Section, "Information" means all information received from the Borrower and

Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in
this Section shall be considered to have compiled with its obligation to do so
if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the
confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own
confidential information.

Agent to take additional Borrower Collateral pursuant to any Related Document.
No amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of any
Revolving Note shall be effective without the written concurrence of the holder
of that Revolving Note.  No notice to or demand on Borrower in any case shall
entitle Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other
circumstances.  Any amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent
effected in accordance with this Section 14.07 shall be binding upon each holder

Borrower's request the Administrative Agent, or a Person acceptable to the
Administrative Agent, shall have the right with the Administrative Agent's
consent and in the Administrative Agent's sole

the Borrower or the Servicer of any provision of this Agreement or any
Receivables Assignment shall not waive, affect or diminish any right of any
Lender or the Administrative Agent thereafter to demand strict compliance and
performance herewith or therewith.  Any suspension or waiver of any breach or
default hereunder shall not suspend, waive or affect any other breach or default
whether the same is prior or subsequent thereto and whether the same or of a
different type.  None of the undertakings, agreements, warranties, covenants and
representations of the Borrower or the Servicer contained in this Agreement or
any Receivables Assignment, and no breach or default by the Borrower or the
Servicer hereunder or thereunder, shall be deemed to have been suspended or
waived by any Lender or the Administrative Agent unless such waiver or
suspension is by an instrument in writing signed by an officer of or other duly
authorized signatory of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and directed to
the Borrower or the Servicer, as applicable, specifying such suspension or
waiver.  The rights and remedies of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent

EXHIBIT A.     Form of Warrant Certificate
<PAGE>

                               WARRANT AGREEMENT

     This WARRANT AGREEMENT (this "Agreement") is made and dated as of August
28, 2001, between Imperial Sugar Company, a Texas corporation (the "Company")
and The Bank of New York, a New York Trust Company (the "Warrant Agent").

     WHEREAS, the Company proposes to effect a plan of reorganization pursuant
to chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code (the "Plan") whereby, among other things,
each issued and outstanding share of Common Stock, without par value, of the
Company (the "Old Common Shares"), is to be cancelled and replaced with (i)
 .00617048405 of a share of newly issued Common Stock, without par value, of the
Company (the "Common Shares") and (ii) .03428046355 of a warrant (the
"Warrants"), each Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one Common
Share of the Company, subject to the terms and conditions contained therein and
in this Agreement (the Common Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants in
accordance with this Agreement being referred to herein as the "Warrant
Shares");

     WHEREAS, the Company desires the Warrant Agent to act on behalf of the
Company, and the Warrant Agent is willing to act, in connection with the
issuance of certificates evidencing the Warrants (the "Warrant Certificates")
and other matters as provided herein;

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements
set forth herein, the parties hereto agree as follows:

     SECTION 1. APPOINTMENT OF WARRANT AGENT.  The Company hereby appoints the
Warrant Agent to act as agent for the Company in accordance with the
instructions set forth in this Agreement, and the Warrant Agent hereby accepts
such appointment. So long as any of the Warrant Certificates are outstanding,
there may be an authenticating agent appointed by the Warrant Agent which shall
be authorized to act on behalf of the Warrant Agent to countersign Warrant
Certificates issued upon exchange and register of transfer thereof, and Warrant
Certificates so countersigned shall be entitled to the benefits of this Warrant
Agreement and shall be valid for all purposes as if countersigned by the Warrant
Agent hereunder. Whenever reference is made in this Warrant Agreement to the
countersignature of the Warrant Agent, such reference shall be deemed to include
countersignature on behalf of the Warrant Agent by such agent. The agent
appointed hereunder shall be entitled to the same rights, privileges and
indemnities as the Warrant Agent under Section 16 and shall satisfy such
requirements as are applicable to a successor to the Warrant Agent under Section
17. The Warrant Agent shall be the authenticating agent.

     SECTION 2. WARRANT CERTIFICATES. The Warrants shall be evidenced by Warrant
Certificates. The text of each Warrant Certificate (and the Forms of Exercise
and Assignment to be set forth on the reverse thereof) shall be substantially in
the form set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto and may have such
                      ---------
identification, designation and information thereon as the Company may deem
appropriate and as are not inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement,
or as may be required to comply with any applicable law or with any rule or
regulation under such law or with any rule or regulation of the National
Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. or any stock exchange on which the
Warrants may be listed, or to conform to usage.

                                       1
<PAGE>

     SECTION 3. EXECUTION AND COUNTERSIGNATURE OF WARRANT CERTIFICATES. The
Warrant Certificates shall be executed on behalf of the Company by its Chairman
of the Board, President or one of its Managing Directors, under its corporate
seal reproduced thereon attested by its Secretary or one of its Assistant
Secretaries. The signature of any such officer on any Warrant Certificate may be
manual or facsimile. Warrant Certificates bearing the manual or facsimile
signatures of individuals who were at any time the proper officers of the
Company shall bind the Company notwithstanding that such individuals, or any of
them, ceased to be such officers prior to the countersignature and delivery of
such Warrant Certificate or were not such officers at the date of this
Agreement.

     Each Warrant Certificate shall be countersigned by the manual signature of
an authorized officer of the Warrant Agent and shall not be valid for any
purpose unless so countersigned. The Warrant Agent is hereby authorized to
countersign Warrant Certificates for issuance pursuant to any provision of this
Agreement.

     Each Warrant Certificate shall be dated the date of its countersignature by
the Warrant Agent.

     SECTION 4. WARRANTS AND ISSUANCE OF WARRANT CERTIFICATES. Following the
execution of this Agreement, from time to time Warrant Certificates representing
up to 1,111,111 Warrants (which amount may be increased to the extent necessary
to accommodate the rounding up of Warrants under the Plan) shall be
countersigned, issued and delivered by the Warrant Agent upon written order of
the Company signed by its Chairman of the Board, its President, one of its
Managing Directors, its Treasurer, its Secretary or one of its Assistant
Secretaries.

     From time to time, the Warrant Agent shall countersign and deliver Warrant
Certificates in required denominations to the Persons (as defined below)
entitled thereto in connection with any transfer or exchange permitted under
this Agreement. Except as provided in Section 9 hereof, no Warrant Certificates
shall be issued except (i) Warrant Certificates initially issued hereunder for
the number of Warrant Shares equal to the number of Warrants represented
thereby, (ii) Warrant Certificates issued upon the partial exercise of any
Warrant to evidence the portion of such Warrant not exercised and (iii) Warrant
Certificates issued upon any transfer or exchange of Warrants.

     The Warrants will be separately transferable upon issuance.

     SECTION 5.  REGISTRATION; TRANSFERS AND EXCHANGES. The Company shall
maintain at a principal office of the Warrant Agent (currently located at 101
Barclay Street (22W), New York, New York 10286) a register for the registration
of the Warrant Certificates and of their transfer from time to time (the
"Warrant Register").

     The Company and the Warrant Agent may deem and treat the registered holder
of each Warrant Certificate as the absolute owner thereof (notwithstanding any
notation of ownership or other writing thereon made by anyone), for the purpose
of any exercise thereof, any distribution

                                       2
<PAGE>

to the holder thereof, and for all other purposes, and neither the Company nor
the Warrant Agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

     Each Warrant Certificate shall be transferable, in whole or in part, on the
Warrant Register, upon surrender of the Warrant Certificate to the Company at
the principal office of the Warrant Agent designated above, or at another office
or agency to be maintained by the Company, together with a written assignment of
the Warrant Certificate on the Form of Assignment set forth on the reverse
thereof or in other form satisfactory to the Warrant Agent, duly executed by the
registered holder thereof or its duly appointed legal representative, and
together with funds to pay any transfer taxes payable in connection with such
transfer. Upon such surrender and payment, a new Warrant Certificate, in the
name of the assignee and in the denomination or denominations specified in such
instrument of assignment, shall be issued and delivered. If less than all of the
Warrant Certificate is being transferred, a new Warrant Certificate or
Certificates shall be issued for the portion of the Warrant Certificate not
being transferred. The Warrant Certificate surrendered shall be cancelled by the
Warrant Agent.

     A Warrant Certificate may be divided or combined with other Warrant
Certificates upon surrender thereof to the Company at the principal office of
the Warrant Agent as set forth above, or at another office or agency to be
maintained by the Company, together with (i) a written notice specifying the
names and denominations in which new Warrant Certificates are to be issued,
signed by the registered holder thereof or his duly appointed legal
representative, and (ii) the funds to pay any transfer taxes payable in
connection with such transfer. Upon such surrender and payment, a new Warrant
Certificate or Certificates shall be issued and delivered in accordance with
such notice. The Warrant Certificate surrendered shall be cancelled by the
Warrant Agent.

     The Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover such
reasonable charges (including, without limitation, any tax or other governmental
charge that may be imposed and the fees and expenses of the Warrant Agent) as
the Company or the Warrant Agent may prescribe in connection with any exchange
or registration of transfer of Warrant Certificates.

     Warrant Certificates cancelled by the Warrant Agent pursuant to any
provision of this Agreement shall be returned to the Company.

     The Warrant Agent shall keep copies of this Agreement and any amendments
hereto and notices given or received hereunder available for inspection by the
Warrant holders during normal business hours at its principal office. The
Company shall supply the Warrant Agent from time to time with such numbers of
copies of this Agreement as the Warrant Agent may reasonably request.

     The Warrant Agent shall, from time to time, as promptly as practicable,
advise the Company of (i) the numbers of Warrants delivered to it in accordance
with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Warrant Certificates,
(ii) the instructions of each Warrant holder of the Warrant Certificates
evidencing such Warrants with respect to delivery of the Warrant Shares or other
cash or property to which such Warrant holder is entitled upon such delivery,
(iii) the delivery of Warrant Certificates evidencing the balance, if any, of
the Warrants

                                       3
<PAGE>

remaining after such delivery, and (iv) such other information as the Company
shall reasonably request.

    SECTION 6. DURATION AND EXERCISE OF WARRANTS; EXERCISE PRICE; RIGHT OF
WARRANT HOLDERS.

     (a)  The Warrants may be exercised on any business day after the Effective
Date of the Company's Second Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization (the
"Effective Date") and terminating at 5:00 p.m., Central time seven years after
the Effective Date of the Plan (as defined therein), or if such day is a day on
which banking institutions in the State of New York are authorized by law to
close, then on the next succeeding day which shall not be such a day (such date
of expiration being hereinafter referred to as the "Expiration Date").  The
Expiration Date may be extended by the Company in its sole discretion from time
to time by a notice given to the Warrant Agent and mailed to the registered
holders of the Warrant Certificates as provided in Section 14.  After 5:00 p.m.,
Central time on the Expiration Date, unexercised Warrants will become wholly
void and of no value.

     (b)  Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the holder of each
Warrant shall have the right to purchase from the Company (and the Company shall
issue and sell to such holder on the terms and subject to the conditions hereof)
one fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Share at the exercise price in effect
hereunder at such time (the "Exercise Price"), upon surrender to the Company at
the principal office of the Warrant Agent of the Warrant Certificate evidencing
such Warrant, with the Form of Exercise on the reverse thereof duly filled in
and signed, and upon payment of the Exercise Price and any applicable taxes
pursuant to Section 8 in lawful money of the United States of America by
certified or official bank check payable to the order of the Company.  The
Exercise Price shall equal the aggregate Allowed Amount of Class 5A and Class 5B
Claims held by holders receiving New Common Stock under the Plan divided by
9,800,000; provided, however, that if at six (6) months after the Effective Date
all Class 5A and Class 5B Claims receiving New Common Stock have not been
finally Allowed, then the per share exercise price shall equal the total of the
aggregate Allowed Amounts and aggregate Disputed Claim amounts of Class 5A and
Class 5B Claims held by holders receiving New Common Stock under the Plan,
divided by 9,800,000.  The Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares
purchasable upon exercise of a Warrant shall be subject to adjustment as
provided in Section 12.

          Subject to Section 8, as soon as practicable after such surrender of a
Warrant Certificate and payment of the Exercise Price in effect hereunder at
such time, the Warrant Agent shall cause to be issued and shall deliver to the
registered holder of such Warrant Certificate in such name or names as such
registered holder may designate, a certificate for the Warrant Share or Warrant
Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant or Warrants evidenced by such
Warrant Certificate. Such certificate shall be deemed to have been issued and
any Person so designated to be named therein shall be deemed to have become the
holder of record of such Warrant Share or Warrant Shares as of the date of the
surrender of such Warrant Certificate and payment of the Exercise Price and any
applicable taxes as provided in this Agreement.  If, on the date of surrender of
such Warrant Certificate and payment of such Exercise Price, the transfer books
for the Warrant Shares shall be closed, certificates for the Warrant Shares
shall be issuable on the date on which such books shall next be open (whether
before, on, or after the Expiration

                                       4
<PAGE>

Date) and until such date the Company shall be under no duty to deliver any
certificate for such Warrant Shares.

          The Warrants evidenced by a Warrant Certificate shall be exercisable,
at the election of the registered holder thereof, either as an entirety or, from
time to time, in part.  If less than all of the Warrants evidenced by a Warrant
Certificate surrendered upon the exercise of Warrants are exercised, a new
Warrant Certificate or Certificates shall be issued to the registered holder for
the remaining number of Warrants evidenced by the Warrant Certificate so
surrendered.  All Warrant Certificates surrendered upon exercise of Warrants
shall be cancelled by the Warrant Agent.

          Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the Warrant
Agent shall not be required to register shares in the name of any individual,
corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, association,
joint-stock company, trust, unincorporated organization or other entity or a
government or other agency or political subdivision thereof (each, a "Person")
who acquired a Warrant Certificate (or part thereof) or any Warrant or Warrant
Shares otherwise than in accordance with such Warrant and this Agreement.

          The Warrant Agent shall deposit to the account of the Company all
monies received by the Warrant Agent in payment of the Exercise Price of any
Warrant. The Warrant Agent shall account promptly to the Company with respect to
the exercise of Warrants.

     (c)  No Warrant holder or its transferee, as such, shall be entitled to
vote or to receive dividends or shall otherwise be deemed to be the holder of
Common Shares for any purpose, nor shall anything contained herein or in any
Warrant Certificate be construed to confer upon any Warrant holder, as such, any
of the rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right to vote upon or give
or withhold consent to any action of the Company (whether upon any
reorganization, issuance of securities, reclassification or conversion of Common
Shares, consolidation, merger, sale, lease, conveyance, or otherwise), receive
notice of meetings or other action affecting stockholders (except for notices
expressly provided for in this Agreement) or receive dividends or subscription
rights, until (i) such Warrant Certificate and any other required documentation
shall have been surrendered for exercise accompanied by full and proper payment
of the Exercise Price, each as provided in this Agreement, and (ii) such Person
shall have been deemed to have become a holder of record of such Warrant Shares
pursuant to this Section 6.  No holder of Warrants shall, upon the exercise of
Warrants, be entitled to any dividends if the record date with respect to
payment of such dividends shall be a date prior to the date such Warrant Shares
are issued upon exercise of such Warrants.

     SECTION 7. OPTIONAL REDUCTION OF EXERCISE PRICE. The Company, in its sole
discretion, without any obligation to do so, shall have the right, at any time,
and from time to time, by action of a majority of the whole Board of Directors
of the Company, to reduce the then-current Exercise Price to such amount (the
"Reduced Exercise Price") and for such period or periods of time, which may be
through the close of business on the Expiration Date (the "Reduced Exercise
Price Period"), as may be deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors of the
Company. Notice of any such Reduced Exercise Price and Reduced Exercise Price
Period shall be given to the registered holders of Warrants in the manner
provided in Section 14 and to

                                       5
<PAGE>

the Warrant Agent in the manner provided in Section 19. After the termination of
the Reduced Exercise Price Period, the Exercise Price shall be such Exercise
Price which would have been in effect, as adjusted pursuant to Section 12, had
there been no reduction in the Exercise Price pursuant to the provisions of this
Section 7. Any adjustment in the Exercise Price pursuant to Section 12 during
the Reduced Exercise Price Period shall also be made in the Reduced Exercise
Price in the manner specified in Section 12.

     SECTION 8. PAYMENT OF TAXES. The Company shall pay all documentary stamp
taxes, if any, attributable to the initial issuance of the Warrant Certificates
or the issuance of the Warrant Shares exercisable therefor; provided, however,
that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax or taxes which may be
payable in respect of any transfer of the Warrants after their initial issuance
or with respect to the issuance of Warrant Shares in a name other than that of
the registered holder of the Warrant Certificate upon exercise thereof, and the
Company shall not be required to issue or deliver such certificates unless or
until the Persons requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Company
the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the
Company that such tax has been paid.

     SECTION 9. MUTILATED OR MISSING WARRANT CERTIFICATES. If any of the Warrant
Certificates shall be mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company may in
its discretion issue, and the Warrant Agent may countersign, in exchange and
substitution for and upon cancellation of the mutilated Warrant Certificate, and
in lieu of and in substitution for the Warrant Certificate lost, stolen or
destroyed, a new Warrant Certificate of like tenor and representing an
equivalent number of Warrants, but only upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to
the Company and the Warrant Agent of such loss, theft or destruction of such
Warrant Certificate and indemnity or bond, if requested, also satisfactory to
them. Applicants for such substitute Warrant Certificates shall also comply with
such other reasonable regulations and pay such other reasonable charges as the
Company or the Warrant Agent may prescribe.

     SECTION 10. RESERVATION OF SHARES.  The Company will at all times reserve
and keep available, free from preemptive rights, out of the aggregate of its
authorized but unissued Common Shares or its authorized and issued Common Shares
held in its treasury, such number of Common Shares enabling it to satisfy any
obligation to issue the maximum number of Warrant Shares deliverable upon the
exercise of all outstanding Warrants.

     Before taking any action which would cause an adjustment pursuant to
Section 12 reducing the Exercise Price below the then par value (if any) of the
Warrant Shares, the Company will take any corporate action which may, in the
opinion of its counsel (which may be counsel employed by the Company), be
necessary in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and
nonassessable Warrant Shares at the Exercise Price as so adjusted.

     The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares which may be issued upon the
exercise of Warrants will, upon issuance and payment therefor, be duly
authorized, fully paid nonassessable and validly issued and, subject to Section
8, free from all taxes, liens, charges and security interests with respect to
the issue thereof.

                                       6

     The Warrant Agent is authorized to make requisition from time to time from
a transfer agent for the Common Shares (including the Company if then acting as
a transfer agent) stock certificates required to honor exercises of outstanding
Warrants. The Company hereby authorizes its present and any future such transfer
agent to comply with all such requests. The Company will supply such transfer
agent with duly executed stock certificates for such purpose and will itself
provide or otherwise make available any cash which may be payable as provided in
Section 13 of this Agreement.

     SECTION 11. OBTAINING STOCK EXCHANGE LISTINGS.  The Company will use its
commercially reasonable efforts to have each of the (i) Warrants and (ii)
Warrant Shares quoted on any securities exchanges on which the then outstanding
Common Shares are listed.

     SECTION 12. ADJUSTMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE AND NUMBER OF WARRANT SHARES
PURCHASABLE.   The Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares purchasable
upon the exercise of each Warrant are subject to adjustment from time to time as
provided in this Section 12.

     (a)  If, prior to the Expiration Date, the Company shall, at any time after
the date of this Agreement, issue any Common Shares as a stock dividend to the
holders of Common Shares, subdivide, combine or reclassify the outstanding
Common Shares into a greater or lesser number of Common Shares (any such
issuance, subdivision, combination or reclassification being herein called a
"Change of Shares"), then, and thereafter upon any future Change of Shares, the
Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such Change of Shares shall be
changed to a price (including any applicable fraction of a cent) determined by
multiplying (x) the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the Change of
Shares by (y) a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of Common
Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Change of Shares, and the
denominator of which shall be the sum of the number of Common Shares outstanding
immediately following the Change of Shares. Such adjustment shall be made
successively whenever such an issuance is made.

     (b)  If, prior to the Expiration Date, the Company shall, at any time after
the date of this Agreement, issue rights, options or warrants to all holders of
Common Shares entitling them (for a period expiring within 60 calendar days
after the date of such issuance) to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares (or
securities exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares) at a price per
Common Share (or having an exchange value or a conversion price per Common
Share, if a security exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares) less
than the current market price per Common Share (as defined in Section 12(i)) on
the record date set for such issuance, the Exercise Price to be in effect after
such record date shall be determined by multiplying (x) the Exercise Price in
effect immediately prior to such record date by (y) a fraction, the numerator of
which shall be the number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date plus
the number of Common Shares which the aggregate offering price of the total
number of Common Shares so to be offered (or the aggregate initial exchange
value or conversion price of the exchangeable or convertible securities so to be
offered) would purchase at the current market price and the denominator of which
shall be the number of Common Shares outstanding on the record date plus the
number of additional Common Shares to be offered for subscription or purchase
(or for which or into which the exchangeable or convertible securities

                                       7
<PAGE>

so to be offered are initially exchangeable or convertible); provided, however,
that no adjustment shall be made if the Company grants the Warrant holder the
right to receive, upon the exercise of the Warrants at any time after the
issuance described in this paragraph (b), such rights, options or warrants that
the Warrant holder would have been entitled to receive had the Warrants been
exercised prior to the record date (but exercisable when issued to the holder).
If such subscription price may be paid in a consideration part or all of which
shall be in a form other than cash, the value of that consideration shall be as
determined by the Board of Directors of the Company. The foregoing adjustment
shall be made successively immediately following each such record date. If such
rights, options or warrants are not so issued, the Exercise Price shall again be
adjusted to be the Exercise Price that would then be in effect if such record
date had not been fixed, but such subsequent adjustment shall not affect the
number of shares issued upon any exercise of Warrants prior to the date such
subsequent adjustment is made. On the termination of any right to convert or
exchange securities convertible into Common Shares, the Exercise Price shall be
immediately readjusted to such amount as would have obtained had the adjustment
made upon the granting or issuance of such rights, options or warrants been made
upon the basis of the issuance or sale of only the number of Common Shares
actually issued pursuant to such rights, options or warrants, but such
subsequent adjustment shall not affect the number of shares issued upon any
exercise of Warrants prior to the date such subsequent adjustment is made.

     (c)  If, prior to the Expiration Date, the Company shall, at any time after
the date of this Agreement, make a distribution to all holders of Common Shares
(including any such distribution made in connection with a consolidation or
merger in which the Company is the continuing Person) of evidences of
indebtedness, options, warrants, securities, cash or assets (other than a
transaction to which paragraph (a) or (b) above applies), the Exercise Price to
be in effect after the record date set for such distribution shall be determined
by multiplying (x) the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such record
date by (y) a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the then-current market
price per Common Share on such record date less the fair market value (as
determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company) of the
portion of the evidences of indebtedness, securities, cash or assets so
distributed attributable to one Common Share, and the denominator of which shall
be the then-current market price per Common Share on such record date; provided,
however, that no adjustment shall be made if the Company grants the Warrant
holder the right to receive, upon the exercise of the Warrants at any time after
the distribution described in this paragraph (c), such evidences of
indebtedness, options, warrants, securities, cash or assets that the Warrant
holder would have been entitled to receive had the Warrants been exercised prior
to the record date. The foregoing adjustment shall be made successively
immediately following each such record date.

     (d)  Upon each adjustment of the Exercise Price pursuant to this Section
12, the total number of Common Shares purchasable upon the exercise of each
Warrant shall (subject to the provisions contained in paragraph (e) hereof) be
such number of shares (calculated to the nearest hundredth) purchasable at the
Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment multiplied by a
fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Exercise Price in effect
immediately prior to such adjustment and the denominator of which shall be the
Exercise Price in effect immediately after such adjustment. Common Shares owned
by or held for the account of the Company shall not be deemed outstanding for
the purpose of that computations under this Section 12.

                                       8
<PAGE>

     (e)  The Company may elect, upon any adjustment of the Exercise Price
hereunder, to adjust the number of Warrants outstanding in lieu of the
adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of each
Warrant as provided herein (the "Warrant Adjustment"). Following a Warrant
Adjustment, each Warrant outstanding after such adjustment shall continue to
represent the right to purchase one Common Share. Each Warrant held of record
prior to such adjustment shall become that number of Warrants (calculated to the
nearest hundredth) determined by multiplying the number one by a fraction, the
numerator of which shall be the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to
such adjustment and the denominator of which shall be the Exercise Price in
effect immediately following the Warrant Adjustment. Upon each Warrant
Adjustment, the Company shall, as promptly as practicable, cause to be
distributed to each registered holder of Warrant Certificates on the date of
such Warrant Adjustment Warrant Certificates evidencing, subject to Section 13
hereof, the number of additional Warrants to which such holder shall be entitled
as a result of such adjustment or, at the option of the Company, cause to be
distributed to such holder in substitution and replacement for the Warrant
Certificates held by such holder prior to the date of the Warrant Adjustment
(and upon surrender thereof, if required by the Company) new Warrant
Certificates evidencing the number of Warrants to which such holder shall be
entitled after such adjustment.

     (f)  In any case in which this Section 12 shall require that any adjustment
in the Exercise Price be made effective as of immediately after a record date
for a specified event, the Company may elect to defer until the occurrence of
the event the issuing to the holder of any Warrant exercised after that record
date the Common Shares and other capital stock of the Company, if any, issuable
upon the exercise over and above the Common Shares and other capital stock of
the Exercise Price in effect prior to such adjustment; provided, however, that
the Company shall deliver to the holder a due bill or other appropriate
instrument evidencing the holder's right to receive such additional shares upon
the occurrence of the event requiring such adjustment.

     (g)  In case of (i) any reclassification, capital reorganization or other
change of outstanding Common Shares (other than a transaction to which paragraph
(a), (b) or (c) above applies), (ii) any consolidation, merger or other business
combination of the Company with or into another Person (other than a
consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing Person and which
does not result in any reclassification, capital reorganization or other change
of outstanding Common Shares), or (iii) any sale or conveyance to another Person
of the property of the Company as, or substantially as, an entirety (other than
a sale/leaseback, mortgage or other financing transaction) (each, a "Change of
Control Transaction"), the Company shall cause effective provision to be made so
that each holder of a Warrant then outstanding shall have the right thereafter,
by exercising such Warrant, to purchase the kind and number of shares of stock
or other securities or property (including cash) such Warrant holder would have
received upon such Change of Control Transaction if such Warrant holder had
exercised its Warrant(s) immediately prior to the effective date of such Change
of Control Transaction. If, after an adjustment pursuant to this Section 12, a
holder of a Warrant may receive shares of two or more classes of capital stock
of the Company upon exercise of such Warrant, the Board of Directors of the
Company shall determine the allocation of the adjusted Exercise Price between
the classes of capital stock. After such allocation, the exercise privilege

                                       9
<PAGE>

and Exercise Price of each such class of capital stock shall thereafter be
subject to adjustment on terms comparable to those applicable to the Common
Shares in this Agreement. Prior to or simultaneously with the consummation of
any Change of Control Transaction, the successor Person (if other than the
Company) shall enter into a supplemental Warrant Agreement including provision
for adjustments that shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the
adjustments provided for in this Section 12.

     (h)  For the purposes of adjustments required by paragraph (d) above, the
Common Shares (or securities exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares)
which the holder of any rights, options, or warrants shall be entitled to
subscribe for or purchase shall be deemed to be issued and outstanding as of the
date of sale, issuance or distribution of such securities and the consideration,
if any, received by the Company therefor shall be deemed to be the consideration
received by the Company for such securities, plus the consideration or premiums
stated in such securities to be paid for the Common Shares (or securities
exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares) covered thereby.

     (i)  For the purpose of any computation under paragraphs (b) or (c) above,
the current market price per Common Share on any date shall be deemed to be the
average of the daily closing prices per Common Share for 15 consecutive trading
days commencing 20 trading days before such date. The closing price for each day
shall be the last reported sale price regular way or, if no such sale takes
place on such day, the average of the closing bid and asked prices regular way
of a Common Share as reported (i) by the principal national securities exchange
on which the Common Shares are then listed or admitted to trading, or (ii) if
not then listed or admitted to trading, in the over-the-counter market as
reported by Nasdaq National Market or any comparable system, or (iii) if not
then listed, as furnished by two members of the NASD selected from time to time
in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company for that purpose.

     (j)  No adjustment in the Exercise Price shall be required unless such
adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least 1% in such price;
provided, however, that any adjustments which by reason of this Section 12(j)
are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in
any subsequent adjustment. All calculations under this Section 12 shall be made
to the nearest cent or to the nearest one-hundredth of a share, as the case may
be.

     (k)  For the purpose of this Section 12, the term "Common Shares" or
"Shares of Common Stock" shall mean (i) the class of stock designated as the
Common Shares of the Company at the date of this Agreement, or (ii) any other
class of stock resulting from successive changes or reclassification of such
shares consisting solely of changes in par value, or from par value to no par
value, or from no par value to par value.

     SECTION 13. FRACTIONAL SHARES. The Company shall not be required to issue
fractions of Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Warrants or to distribute Share
Certificates which evidence fractional Warrant Shares. If a holder of Warrants
exercises more than one Warrant at the same time, the Warrant Shares issuable
shall be based on the total number of Warrants to be exercised at such time. In
lieu of fractional Warrant Shares, there shall be paid to

                                       10
<PAGE>

the registered holders of Warrant Certificates at the time such Warrants are
exercised an amount in cash equal to the same fraction of the current market
price of the Warrant Shares as determined pursuant to Section 12(i).

     SECTION 14. NOTICES TO WARRANT HOLDERS.

     (a)  Except in the case of an adjustment pursuant to Section 7, whenever
the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of each Warrant or
the Exercise Price is adjusted as provided herein, the Company, within 20 days
thereafter, shall (i) cause to be filed with the Warrant Agent a certificate of
the Company signed by its Chairman of the Board, its President or one of its
Vice Presidents setting forth the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the
exercise of each Warrant and the Exercise Price for such Warrant Shares after
adjustment and setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and
the facts upon which the calculations are based, which certificate shall be
conclusive evidence of the correctness of the matters set forth therein, and
(ii) cause notice of such adjustment to be mailed by first-class mail, postage
prepaid, to each registered holder of a Warrant Certificate at the address
appearing on the Warrant Register. Where appropriate, such notice may be mailed
in advance and included as a part of any notice required to be mailed under any
other provision of this Section 14.

     (b)  Upon the fixing of a date for redemption, as provided in Section 6,
the establishing of the Exercise Date, as provided in Section 6, or the fixing
of a Reduced Exercise Price and Reduced Exercise Price Period, as provided in
Section 7, the Company shall cause notice of such redemption or Reduced Exercise
Price and Reduced Exercise Price Period, as the case may be, to be mailed by
first-class mail, postage prepaid, to each registered holder of a Warrant
Certificate at the address appearing on the Warrant Register.

     (c)  If at any time prior to the expiration of the Warrants:

          (i)   the Company shall authorize the issuance to all holders of
          Common Shares of rights, options or warrants to subscribe for or
          purchase Common Shares or of any other subscription rights or
          warrants; or

          (ii)  the Company shall authorize the distribution to all holders of
          Common Shares of evidences of indebtedness, securities, cash or
          assets; or

          (iii) the Board of Directors of the Company shall have approved of any
          consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party and for which
          approval by holders of Common Shares is required, or of the conveyance
          or transfer of the properties and assets of the Company substantially
          as an entirety, or of any reclassification or change of Common Shares
          (other than a change in par value, if any, or as a result of a
          subdivision or combination); or

          (iv)  of the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or
          winding up of the Company; or

                                       11
<PAGE>

          (v)   the Company proposes to take any other action which would
          require an adjustment of the Exercise Price pursuant to Section 12;
          then the Company shall cause to be filed with the Warrant Agent and
          shall cause notice of the proposed action and the record date for the
          determination of holders of Common Shares entitled to vote on such
          matter to be mailed to each of the registered holders of the Warrant
          Certificates at his address appearing on the Warrant Register, at
          least 15 days (or 10 days in any case specified in clauses (i) or (ii)
          above) prior to such record date, or promptly with respect to those
          events for which there is no record date, by first-class mail, postage
          prepaid, which notice shall state (i) the date as of which the holders
          of record of Common Shares to be entitled to receive any such rights,
          warrants or distribution are to be determined, or (ii) the date on
          which any such consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer,
          dissolution, liquidation or winding up is expected to become
          effective, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of
          record of Common Shares shall be entitled to exchange their Common
          Shares for securities or other property, if any, deliverable upon such
          reclassification, consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer,
          dissolution, liquidation or winding up. The failure to give any notice
          required by this Section 14(c) or any defect therein shall not affect
          the legality or validity of the transaction to which it relates.

     SECTION 15. MERGER, CONSOLIDATION OR CHANGE OF NAME OF WARRANT AGENT. Any
Person into which the Warrant Agent may be merged or converted or with which it
may be consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger, conversion or
consolidation to which the Warrant Agent shall be a party, or any Person
succeeding to the corporate trust business of the Warrant Agent, shall be the
successor to the Warrant Agent hereunder without the execution or filing of any
paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, provided that
such Person would be eligible for appointment as a successor Warrant Agent under
the provisions of Section 17. If at the time such successor to the Warrant Agent
shall succeed to the agency created by this Agreement and at that time any of
the Warrant Certificates shall have been countersigned but not delivered, any
such successor to the Warrant Agent may adopt the countersignature of the
original Warrant Agent; and if at that time any of the Warrant Certificates
shall not have been countersigned, any successor to the Warrant Agent may
countersign such Warrant Certificates either in the name of the predecessor
Warrant Agent or in the name of the successor Warrant Agent; and in all such
cases such Warrant Certificates shall have the full force and effect provided in
the Warrant Certificates and in this Agreement.

     If at any time the name of the Warrant Agent shall be changed and at such
time the Warrant Certificates shall have been countersigned but not delivered,
the Warrant Agent may adopt the countersignature under its prior name, and if at
that time any of the Warrant Certificates shall not have been countersigned, the
Warrant Agent may countersign such Warrant Certificates either in its prior name
or in its changed name, and in all such cases such Warrant Certificates shall
have the full force provided in the Warrant Certificates and in this Agreement.

     SECTION 16. WARRANT AGENT. The Warrant Agent undertakes the duties and
obligations imposed by this Agreement, upon the following terms and conditions,
all of which the Company and the holders of Warrants, by their acceptance
thereof, shall be bound:

                                       12
<PAGE>

     (a)  The statements contained herein and in the Warrant Certificates shall
be taken as statements of the Company, and the Warrant Agent assumes no
responsibility for the correctness of any of the same except such as describe
the Warrant Agent or action taken or to be taken by it.

     (b)  The Warrant Agent shall not be responsible for any failure of the
Company to comply with any of the covenants contained in this Agreement or in
the Warrant Certificates to be complied with by the Company.

     (c)  The Warrant Agent may consult at any time with counsel satisfactory to
it (who may be counsel for the Company) and shall incur no liability or
responsibility to the Company or to any holder of any Warrant Certificate in
respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by any of them hereunder in
good faith and in accordance with the opinion or the advice of such counsel.

     (d)  Whenever in the performance of its duties under this Agreement the
Warrant Agent shall deem it necessary or desirable that any fact or matter be
proved or established by the Company prior to taking or suffering any action
hereunder, such fact or matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be
herein specifically prescribed) may be deemed to be conclusively proved and
established by a certificate signed by the Chairman, President or a Vice
President of  the Company and delivered to the Warrant Agent; and such
certificate shall be full authorization to the Warrant Agent for any action
taken or suffered in good faith by it under the provisions of this Agreement in
reliance upon such certificate.

     (e)  Any notice, statement, instruction, request, direction, order or
demand of the Company shall be sufficiently evidenced by an instrument signed by
the Chairman of the Board of Directors, President or any Vice President (unless
other evidence in respect thereof is herein specifically prescribed).  The
Warrant Agent shall not be liable for any action taken, suffered or omitted by
it in accordance with such notice, statement, instruction, request, direction,
order or demand.

     (f)  The Company agrees to pay to the Warrant Agent reasonable compensation
for all services rendered by the Warrant Agent in the execution and performance
of this Agreement, to reimburse the Warrant Agent for expenses, taxes and other
charges reasonably incurred by the Warrant Agent in the execution and
performance of this Agreement and to indemnify the Warrant Agent and save it
harmless against any and all losses, expenses and liabilities arising out of
anything done or omitted by the Warrant Agent in the execution and performance
of this Agreement except as a result of its gross negligence, willful misconduct
or bad faith.  The provisions of this Section 16(f) shall survive the expiration
of the Warrants and the termination of this Agreement.

     (g)  The Warrant Agent shall be under no obligation to institute any
action, suit or legal proceeding or to take any other action likely to involve
expense unless the Company shall furnish the Warrant Agent with reasonable
security and indemnity for any costs and expenses which may be incurred, but
this provision shall not affect the power of the Warrant Agent to take such
action as it may consider proper, whether with or without any such security or
indemnity.

                                       13
<PAGE>

     (h)  Except as otherwise required by law, the Warrant Agent, and any
stockholder, director, officer or employee of the Warrant Agent, may buy, sell
or deal in any of the Warrants or other securities of the Company or become
pecuniarily interested in any transaction in which the Company may be
interested, or contract with or lend money to the Company or otherwise act as
fully and freely as though they were not the Warrant Agent under this Agreement,
or a stockholder, director, officer or employee of the Warrant Agent, as the
case may be. Nothing herein shall preclude the Warrant Agent from acting in any
other capacity for the Company, or for any other legal entity.

     (i)  The Warrant Agent shall act hereunder solely as agent for the Company,
and its duties shall be determined solely by the provision hereof. The Warrant
Agent shall be liable hereunder only for its own gross negligence or willful
misconduct or actions or omissions taken in bad faith; provided, however, that
the Warrant Agent shall not be liable for any indirect, special, punitive or
consequential damages.

     (j)  The Warrant Agent shall at no time be under any duty or responsibility
to any holder of any Warrant Certificate to make or cause to be made any
adjustment of the Exercise Price, the number of the Warrant Shares or other
securities or property deliverable as provided in this Agreement, or to
determine whether any facts exist which may require any of such adjustments or
with respect to the nature or extent of any such adjustment, when made, or with
respect to the method employed in making the same. The Warrant Agent shall not
be accountable with respect to the validity or value or the kind or amount of
any Warrant Shares or of any securities or property which may at a time be
issued or delivered upon the exercise of any Warrant or at the expiration of the
period during which the Warrants are exercisable for any unexercised Warrant or
with respect to whether any such Warrant Shares or other securities will when
issued be validly issued and fully paid and nonassessable, and makes no
representation with respect thereto.

     (k)  The Warrant Agent may assume that any Warrant exercised is permitted
to be exercised under applicable law and shall have no liability for acting in
reliance upon such assumption. Warrant Agent shall not be responsible for
failure by the Company's transfer agent to supply Common Shares.

     (l)  The Warrant Agent shall not incur any liability hereunder if by reason
of any act of God or war or other circumstances beyond its control, it, or its
employees, officers or directors shall be prevented, delayed or forbidden from
or be subject to any civil or criminal penalty on account of, doing or
performing any act or thing which by the terms of this Agreement it is provided
shall be done or performed or by reason of any nonperformance or delay, caused
by any such act of God or war or other circumstances beyond its control.

     SECTION 17. CHANGE OF WARRANT AGENT. The Warrant Agent may resign and be
discharged from its duties under this Agreement after giving 30 days prior
written notice to the Company. The Warrant Agent may be removed by the Company
by like notice to the Warrant Agent. If the office of Warrant Agent becomes
vacant by resignation, removal, incapacity to act, or otherwise, the Company
shall appoint a successor to the Warrant Agent

                                       14
<PAGE>

(which may be the Company). If the Company shall fail to make such appointment
within a period of 30 days after it has been notified in writing of such
incapacity or resignation by the Warrant Agent or by the registered holder of a
Warrant Certificate, then the registered holder of any Warrant Certificate may
apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor
to the Warrant Agent. Pending appointment of a successor to the Warrant Agent,
either by the Company or by such a court, the duties of the Warrant Agent shall
be carried out by the Company. Any successor Warrant Agent whether appointed by
the Company or by such a court shall be a bank or trust company, in good
standing, incorporated under the laws of the United States of America or of a
state of the United States of America, and must have at the time of its
appointment as Warrant Agent a combined capital and surplus of at least
$500,000. After appointment, the successor Warrant Agent shall be vested with
the same powers, rights, duties and responsibilities as if it had been
originally named as Warrant Agent without further act or deed; but the former
Warrant Agent shall deliver and transfer to the successor Warrant Agent any
property at the time held by it hereunder and execute and deliver any further
assurance, conveyance, act or deed necessary for the purpose. The Company shall
cause notice of the appointment of any successor Warrant Agent to be mailed by
first-class mail, postage prepaid, to each registered holder of a Warrant
Certificate at his address appearing on the Warrant Register. Failure to give
any notice provided for in this Section 17, or any defect therein, shall not,
however, affect the legality or validity of the appointment of a successor
Warrant Agent.

     SECTION 18. ISSUANCE OF NEW WARRANT CERTIFICATES. Notwithstanding any of
the provisions of this Agreement or of the Warrants to the contrary, the Company
may, at its option, issue new Warrant Certificates evidencing Warrants in such
form as may be approved by its Board of Directors to reflect any adjustment or
change in the Exercise Price and the number or kind or class of shares of stock
or other securities or property purchasable under the Warrant Certificates made
in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.
