                                 AWARD AGREEMENT

      Pursuant to the terms of its 2005 Equity Incentive Plan (the "Plan"), F5
Networks, Inc., a Washington corporation (the "Company"), has granted you an
award (the "Award") (either a non-statutory stock option to purchase shares of
the Company's Common Stock (an "Option") or stock units representing the right
to receive shares of the Company's Common Stock ("Stock Units") as set forth in
the Notice of Grant of Stock Options or Stock Units (the "Grant Notice")) on the
terms and conditions as set forth in this 2005 Equity Incentive Plan Award
Agreement (this "Agreement"), the Grant Notice (which is incorporated herein by
reference) and the Plan (which is incorporated herein by reference). Capitalized
terms used but not defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings specified
in the Plan.

      IN CONSIDERATION OF THE MUTUAL PROMISES SET FORTH BELOW, THE PARTIES AGREE
AS FOLLOWS:

      1. GRANT OF AWARD; GRANT DATE. The Company has granted you an Award to
purchase (in the case of an Option) or to be issued (in the case of Stock Units)
the total number of shares of Common Stock of the Company as set forth in the
Grant Notice (the "Award Shares") on the terms and conditions set forth in this
Agreement, the Grant Notice and the Plan, including in the case of an Option at
the exercise price per share of Common Stock set forth in the Grant Notice (the
"Award Price"). The number and kind of Award Shares and the Award Price may be
adjusted in certain circumstances in accordance with Section 11 of the Plan.

      2. VESTING AND EXERCISE OR SETTLEMENT OF STOCK.

            2.1. Options.

            (a) The Option will vest and become exercisable during its term in
accordance with the vesting schedule set forth in the Grant Notice and with the
applicable provisions of the Plan and this Agreement. Vesting will cease upon
the termination of your Continuous Service except as otherwise set forth in the
Plan or this Agreement.

            (b) The vested and exercisable portion of the Option may be
exercised during its term (as set forth in Section 6) electronically as directed
by the Company or by delivering a Notice of Exercise (in a form designated by
the Company), together with the Award Price (payable in the manner set forth in
Section 3) to the Secretary of the Company, or to such other person as the
Company may designate, during regular business hours, together with such
additional documents as the Company may then require.

            (c) By exercising the Option, you agree that, as a condition to any
exercise of the Option, the Company may require you to enter an arrangement
providing for the payment by you to the Company of any tax withholding
obligation of the Company arising by reason of (1) the exercise of the Option or
(2) the disposition of shares acquired upon such exercise.

                                       1

<PAGE>

            2.2. Stock Units. On each date that Stock Units vest (a "Vesting
Date"), the Stock Units will be settled as to the number of shares vesting on
such Vesting Date, meaning that the Company will (subject to your obligations to
satisfy the requirements of Sections 5 and 9) issue to you the number of shares
vesting on such Vesting Date and the Award will thereafter remain in effect only
as to the number of unvested shares of Common Stock remaining subject thereto.
The shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of Stock Units will be
registered in your name as of each Vesting Date on the register of shareholders
of the Company (through its transfer agent).

      3. METHOD OF PAYMENT OF THE OPTION AWARD PRICE. Payment of the Award Price
is due in full upon exercise of all or any part of the Option. You may elect to
make payment of the Award Price by any of the methods, or combination thereof,
described in the Plan, provided that the Board may, in its sole discretion,
refuse to accept a particular form of consideration at the time of exercise of
any Option, or agree to accept any other form of legal consideration.

      4. WHOLE SHARES. The Award may only be exercised or settled for whole
shares.

      5. SECURITIES LAW COMPLIANCE. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, the Award may not be exercised or settled unless the shares
issuable upon exercise or settlement of the Award are then registered under the
Securities Act or, if such shares are not then so registered, the Company has
determined that such exercise and issuance would be exempt from the registration
requirements of the Securities Act. The exercise or settlement of the Award must
also comply with other applicable laws and regulations governing the Award, and
the Award may not be exercised or settled, and the Company will have no
liability for failure to issue shares of Common Stock upon exercise of
settlement of the Award, if the Company determines that the exercise or
settlement would not be in material compliance with such laws and regulations.

      6. TERM AND TERMINATION OF AWARD.

            6.1. Options. Subject to earlier termination as required under
Section 11 of the Plan, the term of the Option commences on the Grant Date and
expires upon the earliest of the following:

            (a) three (3) months after the termination of your Continuous
Service for any reason other than death or Disability, provided that if during
any part of such three-month period the Option is not exercisable solely because
of the condition set forth in Section 5, the Option shall not expire until the
earlier of the Expiration Date or until it shall have been exercisable for an
aggregate period of three (3) months after the termination of your Continuous
Service;

            (b) twelve (12) months after the termination of your Continuous
Service due to Disability;

            (c) eighteen (18) months after your death if you die either during
your Continuous Service or within three (3) months after your Continuous Service
terminates for reason other than Cause;

                                       2

<PAGE>

            (d) the Expiration Date indicated in the Grant Notice; or

            (e) the tenth (10th) anniversary of the Grant Date.

            6.2. Stock Units. In the event your Continuous Service terminates,
any Stock Units and the shares of Common Stock subject thereto (that have not
been issued upon settlement) shall be forfeited.

      7. TRANSFERABILITY. The Award is not transferable, except by will or by
the laws of descent and distribution. Options are exercisable during your life
only by you. Shares of Common Stock issued upon vesting of a Stock Unit are
issuable during your life only to you. Notwithstanding the foregoing, by
delivering written notice to the Company, in a form satisfactory to the Company,
you may designate a third party who, in the event of your death, shall
thereafter be entitled to exercise the Option or receive shares of Common Stock
issued upon vesting of a Stock Unit.

      8. NOT A SERVICE CONTRACT. This Agreement is not an employment or service
contract, and nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to create in any way
whatsoever any obligation on your part to continue in the employ of the Company
or an Affiliate, or of the Company or an Affiliate to continue your employment.
In addition, nothing in this Agreement shall obligate the Company or an
Affiliate, their respective shareholders, Board, officers or employees to
continue any relationship that you might have as a director or consultant for
the Company or an Affiliate.

      9. WITHHOLDING OBLIGATIONS.

            9.1. At the time the Option is exercised, in whole or in part, or
shares of Common Stock are issued upon settlement of Stock Units or at any time
thereafter as requested by the Company, you hereby authorize withholding from
payroll and any other amounts payable to you, or otherwise agree to make
adequate provision for (including by means of a "cashless exercise" pursuant to
a program developed under Regulation T as promulgated by the Federal Reserve
Board to the extent permitted by the Company), any sums required to satisfy the
federal, state, local and foreign tax withholding obligations of the Company or
an Affiliate, which arise in connection with the Award.

            9.2. The Option is not exercisable and shares of Common Stock are
not issuable upon settlement of Stock Units unless the tax withholding
obligations of the Company are satisfied. Accordingly, you may not be able to
exercise the Option or receive shares of Common Stock upon settlement of Stock
Units when desired even though the Award is vested.

      10. PROFESSIONAL ADVICE. The acceptance and exercise or settlement of the
Award and the sale of Award Shares has consequences under federal and state tax
and securities laws which may vary depending upon your individual circumstances.
Accordingly, you acknowledge that you have been advised to consult your personal
legal and tax advisor in connection with this Agreement and your dealings with
respect to the Award and the Award Shares. You further acknowledge that the
Company has made no warranties or representations to you with respect to

                                       3

<PAGE>

the income tax consequences of the grant and exercise or settlement of the Award
or the sale of the Award Shares and you are in no manner relying on the Company
or its representatives for an assessment of such consequences.

      11. GOVERNING PLAN DOCUMENT. Your Award is subject to all applicable
provisions of the Plan, which are hereby made a part of your Award, and is
further subject to all interpretations, amendments, rules and regulations which
may from time to time be promulgated and adopted pursuant to the Plan. In the
event of any conflict between the provisions of your Award and those of the
Plan, the provisions of the Plan shall control.

      12. DAMAGES. You shall be liable to the Company for all costs and damages,
including incidental and consequential damages, resulting from a disposition of
Award Shares which is not in conformity with the provisions of this Agreement.

      13. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in
accordance with, the laws of the State of Washington excluding those laws that
direct the application of the laws of another jurisdiction.

      14. NOTICES. All notices and other communications under this Agreement

                  Section 1.5. Exchange Rates; Currency Equivalents. (a) The
         Administrative Agent or the Issuer, as applicable, shall determine the
         Spot Rates as of each Revaluation Date to be used for calculating
         Dollar Equivalent amounts of Credit Extensions in respect of Letters of
         Credit and Letter of Credit Outstandings denominated in Alternative
         Currencies. Such Spot Rates shall become effective as of such
         Revaluation Date and shall be the Spot Rates employed in converting any
         amounts between the applicable currencies until the next Revaluation
         Date to occur. Except for purposes of financial statements delivered by
         the Borrower hereunder or calculating financial covenants hereunder or
         except as otherwise provided herein, the applicable amount of any
         Alternative Currency for purposes of the Loan Documents shall be such
         Dollar Equivalent amount as so determined by the Administrative Agent
         or the Issuer, as applicable.

                  (b) Wherever in this Agreement in connection with the
         issuance, amendment or extension of a Letter of Credit, an amount, such
         as a required minimum or multiple amount, is expressed in Dollars, but
         such Letter of Credit is denominated in an Alternative Currency, such
         amount shall be the relevant Alternative Currency Equivalent of such
         Dollar amount (rounded to the nearest unit of such Alternative
         Currency, with 0.5 of a unit being rounded upward), as determined by
         the Administrative Agent or the Issuer, as the case may be.

                  Section 1.6. Additional Alternative Currencies. (a) The
         Borrower may from time to time request that Letters of Credit be issued
         in a currency other than those specifically listed in the definition of
         "Alternative Currency;" provided that such requested currency is a
         lawful currency (other than Dollars) that is readily available and
         freely transferable and convertible into Dollars and such request is
         approved by the Administrative Agent and the Issuer.

                  (b) Any such request shall be made to the Administrative Agent
         not later than 11:00 a.m., 10 Business Days prior to the date of the
         desired Credit Extension (or such other time or date as may be agreed
         by the Administrative Agent and the Issuer in their sole discretion).
         The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Issuer thereof. The
         Issuer shall notify the Administrative Agent, not later than 11:00
         a.m., five Business Days after receipt of such request whether it
         consents, in its sole discretion, to the issuance of Letters of Credit
         in such requested currency.

<PAGE>

                  (c) Any failure by the Issuer to respond to such request
         within the time period specified in the preceding sentence shall be
         deemed to be a refusal by the Issuer to permit Letters of Credit to be
         issued in such requested currency. If the Administrative Agent and the
         Issuer consent to the issuance of Letters of Credit in such requested
         currency, the Administrative Agent shall so notify the Borrower and
         such currency shall thereupon be deemed for all purposes to be an
         Alternative Currency hereunder for purposes of any Letter of Credit
         issuances. If the Administrative Agent shall fail to obtain consent to
         any request for an additional currency under this Section 1.6, the
         Administrative Agent shall promptly so notify the Borrower.

                  Section 1.7. Change of Currency. (a) Each obligation of the
         Borrower to make a payment denominated in the national currency unit of
         any member state of the European Union that adopts the Euro as its
         lawful currency after the date hereof shall be redenominated into Euro
         at the time of such adoption (in accordance with the EMU Legislation).
         If, in relation to the currency of any such member state, the basis of
         accrual of interest expressed in this Agreement in respect of that
         currency shall be inconsistent with any convention or practice in the
         London interbank market for the basis of accrual of interest in respect
         of the Euro, such expressed basis shall be replaced by such convention
         or practice with effect from the date on which such member state adopts
         the Euro as its lawful currency.

                  (b) Each provision of this Agreement shall be subject to such
         reasonable changes of construction as the Administrative Agent may from
         time to time specify to be appropriate to reflect the adoption of the
         Euro by any member state of the European Union and any relevant market
         conventions or practices relating to the Euro.

                  (c) Each provision of this Agreement also shall be subject to
         such reasonable changes of construction as the Administrative Agent may
         from time to time specify to be appropriate to reflect a change in
         currency of any other country and any relevant market conventions or
         practices relating to the change in currency.

         (q) Section 2.1.2 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended to read as
follows:

                  Section 2.1.2. Letter of Credit Commitment. From time to time

         Termination Date, the Issuer will

                           (a) issue one or more standby letters of credit (each
                  referred to as a "Letter of Credit" and which shall include
                  any Existing Letter of Credit) denominated in Dollars or in
                  one or more Alternative Currencies for the account of the
                  Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries in the Stated Amount
                  requested by the Borrower on such day; or

                  date of such extension and (ii) twelve months after the Stated
                  Maturity Date.

         Denver time, on a Business Day, the Borrower may, from time to time
         irrevocably request, on not less than three (or five with respect to
         any Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency) nor more
         than ten Business Days' notice (or such other notice period as may be
         acceptable to the Issuer in its sole discretion), in the case of an
         initial issuance of a Letter of Credit, and not less than three (or

         Borrower and approved by the Issuer, solely for the purposes described

         Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that it shall be obligated to
         reimburse the Issuer upon each Disbursement of any Letter of Credit,
         and it shall be deemed to be an obligor for purposes of each such
         Letter of Credit issued hereunder (whether the account party on such
         Letter of Credit is the Borrower or a Subsidiary of the Borrower). Upon
         receipt of an Issuance Request, the Administrative Agent shall promptly
         notify the Issuer and each Lender thereof and the Issuer shall, subject
         to the terms and conditions hereof, including Article V, promptly (but
         in no event later than three Business Days after such notification)
         issue a Letter of Credit. Each Letter of Credit shall by its terms be
         stated to expire on a date (its "Stated Expiry Date") no later than the
         earlier to occur of (i) thirty-six months from the date of its issuance
         and (ii) twelve months after the Stated Maturity Date; provided,
         however, if any Letter of Credit has a Stated Expiry Date after the
         Stated Maturity Date (whether at the initial

                                       11
<PAGE>

         issuance thereof or as a result of an extension of the Stated Expiry
         Date), the Borrower shall no later than sixty days prior to the Stated
         Maturity Date Cash Collateralize the then Letter of Credit Outstandings
         in respect of all Letters of Credit whose Stated Expiry Date is after
         the Stated Maturity Date in an amount equal to 105% of such aggregate
         amount of Letter of Credit Outstandings. Upon expiration of all Letters
         of Credit whose Stated Expiry Date is after the Stated Maturity Date
         and payment and performance of all Obligations in full, the
         Administrative Agent shall return all amounts on deposit with the
         Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.6 which have not been
         applied to the satisfaction of the Obligations. Prior to the expiration
         of all Letters of Credit whose Stated Expiry Date is after the Stated
         Maturity Date and payment and performance of all Obligations in full
         and provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the
         Administrative Agent, upon request by the Borrower, shall promptly
         remit to the Borrower any Cash Collateral in excess of 105% of the
         aggregate amount of Letter of Credit Outstandings. The Issuer will make
         available to the beneficiary thereof the original of each Letter of
         Credit which it issues hereunder. All Existing Letters of Credit shall
         have been deemed to have been issued pursuant hereto, and from and
         after the Agreement Effective Date shall be subject to and governed by
         the terms and conditions hereof.

         (u) Section 2.6.2 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended to read as
follows:

                  Section 2.6.2. Disbursements; Conversion to Revolving Loans.
         The Issuer will notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent
         promptly of the presentment for payment of any Letter of Credit issued
         by the Issuer, together with notice of the date (the "Disbursement
         Date") such payment shall be made (each such payment, a
         "Disbursement"). Subject to the terms and provisions of such Letter of
         Credit and this Agreement, the Issuer shall make such payment to the
         beneficiary (or its designee) of such Letter of Credit. Prior to 10:00
         a.m., Denver time, on the first Business Day following the Disbursement
         Date with respect to any Disbursement to be reimbursed in Dollars, or
         the Applicable Time on the first Business Day following the
         Disbursement Date with respect to any Disbursement to be reimbursed in
         an Alternative Currency (the "Disbursement Due Date"), the Borrower
         shall be obligated to reimburse the Administrative Agent, for the
         account of the Issuer, for all amounts which the Issuer has disbursed
         under such Letter of Credit, together with interest thereon at the rate
         per annum otherwise applicable to Revolving Loans (made as Base Rate
         Loans) from and including the Disbursement Date to but excluding the
         Disbursement Due Date and, thereafter (unless such Disbursement is
         converted into a Base Rate Loan on the Disbursement Due Date), at a
         rate per annum equal to the rate per annum then in effect with respect
         to overdue Revolving Loans (made as Base Rate Loans) pursuant to
         Section 3.2.2 for the period from and including the Disbursement Due
         Date to but excluding the date of such reimbursement. In the case of a
         Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, the Borrower
         shall reimburse the Issuer in such Alternative Currency unless (a) the
         Issuer (at its option) shall have specified in such notice that it will
         require reimbursement in Dollars or (b) in the

                                       12
<PAGE>

         absence of any such requirement for reimbursement in Dollars, the
         Borrower will have notified the Issuer promptly following receipt of
         the notice of drawing that the Borrower will reimburse the Issuer in
         Dollars. In the case of any such reimbursement in Dollars of a drawing
         under a Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, the
         Issuer shall notify the Borrower of the Dollar Equivalent of the amount
         of the drawing promptly following the determination thereof.
         Notwithstanding anything preceding in this Section 2.6.2 to the
         contrary, if no Default shall have then occurred and be continuing and
         the Disbursement was not made after the Stated Maturity Date, unless
         the Borrower has notified the Administrative Agent no later than one
         Business Day prior to the Disbursement Due Date that it will reimburse
         the Issuer for the applicable Disbursement, then the amount of the
         Disbursement shall be deemed to be a Revolving Loan (expressed in
         Dollars in the amount of the Dollar Equivalent thereof in case of a
         Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency) constituting a
         Base Rate Loan and following the giving of notice thereof by the
         Administrative Agent to the Lenders, each Lender (other than the
         Issuer) will deliver to the Issuer on the Disbursement Due Date Same
         Day Funds in Dollars in an amount equal to such Lender's Percentage of
         such Revolving Loan. Each conversion of Disbursement amounts into
         Revolving Loans shall constitute a representation and warranty by the
         Borrower that on the date of the making of such Revolving Loan all of
         the statements set forth in Section 5.2.1 are true and correct.

         (v) Section 2.6.3 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended to read as
follows:

                  Section 2.6.3 Reimbursement. The obligation (a "Reimbursement
         Obligation") of the Borrower under Section 2.6.2 to reimburse the
         Issuer with respect to each Disbursement (including interest thereon)
         not converted into a Base Rate Loan pursuant to Section 2.6.2, and,
         upon the failure of the Borrower to reimburse the Issuer and the giving
         of notice thereof by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders, each
         Lender's obligation under Section 2.6.1 to reimburse the Issuer or fund
         its Percentage of any Disbursement converted into a Base Rate Loan,
         shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and
         irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment which
         the Borrower or such Lender, as the case may be, may have or have had
         against the Issuer or any such Lender, including any defense based upon
         the failure of any Disbursement to conform to the terms of the
         applicable Letter of Credit (if, in the Issuer's good faith opinion,
         such Disbursement is determined to be appropriate) any Disbursement
         being made after the Stated Maturity Date or any non-application or
         misapplication by the beneficiary of the proceeds of such Letter of
         Credit; provided, however, that after paying in full its Reimbursement
         Obligation hereunder, nothing herein shall adversely affect the right
         of the Borrower or such Lender, as the case may be, to commence any
         proceeding against the Issuer for any wrongful Disbursement made by the
         Issuer under a Letter of Credit as a result of acts or omissions
         constituting gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the
         Issuer

                                       13
<PAGE>

         (w) Section 2.6.5 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended to read as
follows:

                  Section 2.6.5. Nature of Reimbursement Obligations. The
         Borrower and, to the extent set forth in Section 2.6.1, each Lender,
         shall assume all risks of the acts, omissions or misuse of any Letter
         of Credit by the beneficiary thereof. The Issuer (except to the extent
         of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct) shall not be
         responsible for:

                           (a) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy,
                  genuineness or legal effect of any Letter of Credit or any
                  document submitted by any party in connection with the
                  application for and issuance of a Letter of Credit, even if it
                  should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid,
                  insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged;

                           (b) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy,
                  genuineness or legal effect of any instrument transferring or
                  assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of
                  Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or the proceeds
                  thereof in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or
                  ineffective for any reason;

                           (c) failure of the beneficiary to comply fully with
                  conditions required in order to demand payment under a Letter
                  of Credit;

                           (d) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in
                  transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable,
                  telegraph, telex or otherwise;

                           (e) any adverse change in the relevant exchange rates
                  or in the availability of the relevant Alternative Currency to
                  the Borrower or in the relevant currency markets generally; or

                           (f) any loss or delay in the transmission or
                  otherwise of any document or draft required in order to make a
                  Disbursement under a Letter of Credit.

         None of the foregoing shall affect, impair or prevent the vesting of
         any of the rights or powers granted to the Issuer or any Lender. In
         furtherance and extension and not in limitation or derogation of any of
         the foregoing, any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Issuer in
         good faith (and not constituting gross negligence or willful
         misconduct) shall be binding upon the Borrower, each other Obligor and
         each such Lender, and shall not put the Issuer under any resulting
         liability to the Borrower, any other Obligor or any Lender, as the case
         may be.

         (x) Section 3.3.3 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended to read as
follows:

                  Section 3.3.3. Letter of Credit Face Amount Fee. The Borrower
         agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each
         Lender, a fee for each Letter of Credit for the period from and
         including the date of the issuance of such

                                       14
<PAGE>

         Letter of Credit to (but not including) the date upon which such Letter
         of Credit expires, at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin
         for such day for Revolving Loans that are maintained as LIBO Rate Loans
         (but in no event less than $500) times the Dollar Equivalent of the
         daily maximum amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit.
         Such fee shall be payable by the Borrower in arrears on each Quarterly
         Payment Date, and on the Stated Expiry Date of such Letter of Credit,
         commencing on the first such date after the issuance of such Letter of
         Credit.

         (y) Section 3.3.4 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended to read as
follows:

                  Section 3.3.4 Letter of Credit Fronting Fee. The Borrower
         agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the
         Issuer, a fronting fee for each Letter of Credit equal to 0.125% per
         annum of the Dollar Equivalent of the face amount of such Letter of
         Credit (but in no event less than $500 payable at issue). Such fee
         shall be payable by the Borrower on the date that each Letter of Credit
         is issued or is renewed and, without duplication, on each anniversary
         of the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit so long as such Letter
         of Credit is outstanding. In addition, the Borrower shall pay directly
         to the Issuer for its own account the customary issuance, presentation,
         amendment and other processing fees, and other standard costs and
         expenses of the Issuer related to letters of credit as from time to
         time in effect.

         (z) Section 4.8 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended to read as
follows:

                  Section 4.8. Payments, Computations, etc. Except as otherwise
         expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrower pursuant to
         this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be made by the Borrower
         to the Administrative Agent for the pro rata account of the Lenders
         entitled to receive such payment. Except as otherwise expressly
         provided herein and except with respect to the payment of a drawing
         under a Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, all
         payments by the Borrower required to be made hereunder shall be made to
         the Administrative Agent in Dollars, not later than 10:00 a.m., Denver
         time, on the date due, in Same Day Funds, to such account as the
         Administrative Agent shall specify from time to time by notice to the
         Borrower. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments
         by the Borrower hereunder with respect to a drawing under a Letter of
         Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency shall be made to the
         Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuer, to such account as
         the Administrative Agent shall specify from time to time by notice to
         the Borrower in such Alternative Currency and in Same Day Funds no
         later than the Applicable Time specified by the Administrative Agent on
         the dates specified herein. Funds received after either time set forth
         in the immediately preceding two sentences shall be deemed to have been
         received by the Administrative Agent on the next succeeding Business
         Day. If, for any reason, the Borrower is prohibited by any law, rule or
         regulation from making any required payment hereunder in an Alternative

                                       15
<PAGE>

         Currency, the Borrower shall make such payment in Dollars in the Dollar
         Equivalent of the Alternative Currency payment amount. The
         Administrative Agent shall promptly remit Dollars in Same Day Funds to
         each Lender its share, if any, of such payments received by the
         Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender. All interest and
         fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days
         (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring during
         the period for which such interest or fee is payable over a year
         comprised of 360 days (or, in the case of interest on a Base Rate Loan
         (other than when calculated with respect to the Federal Funds Rate),
         365 days or, if appropriate, 366 days); provided, however, in no event
         as a result of such computation shall interest exceed the Highest
         Lawful Rate. Whenever any payment to be made shall otherwise be due on
         a day which is not a Business Day, such payment shall (except as
         otherwise required by clause (c) of the definition of the term
         "Interest Period" with respect to LIBO Rate Loans) be made on the next
         succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in
         computing interest and fees, if any, in connection with such payment.
         All payments by the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or any other
         Loan Document shall be made without setoff, deduction or counterclaim.

         (aa) Section 5.2 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended to add
Section 5.2.3 thereto to read as follows:

                  Section 5.2.3. Alternative Currency Letters of Credit. In the
         case of a Letter of Credit to be denominated in an Alternative
         Currency, there shall not have occurred any material change in national
         or international financial, political or economic conditions or
         currency exchange rates or exchange controls which in the reasonable
         opinion of the Issuer would make it impracticable for such Letter of
         Credit to be denominated in the relevant Alternative Currency.

         (bb) Section 6.9(b) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended to read
as follows:

                  (b) [INTENTIONALLY OMITTED.]

         (cc) Section 7.1.7 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended to read as
follows:

                  Section 7.1.7 Future Subsidiaries. Upon any Person becoming,
         after the First Amendment Effective Date, a Material Subsidiary of the
         Borrower (including pursuant to a Permitted Acquisition), or upon a
         Subsidiary of the Borrower that was previously not a Material
         Subsidiary becoming a Material Subsidiary, or upon the Borrower or any
         Subsidiary of the Borrower acquiring additional Capital Stock of any
         existing Material Subsidiary, the Borrower shall notify the
         Administrative Agent of such event, and

                           (a) the Borrower shall promptly (but in any event
                  within 30 days) cause each such Subsidiary that is both a U.S.
                  Subsidiary and a Material Subsidiary to execute and deliver to
                  the Administrative Agent,

                                       16
<PAGE>

                  with counterparts for each Lender, a supplement to the
                  Subsidiary Guaranty and a supplement to the Subsidiary
                  Security Agreement, together with acknowledgment copies of all
                  Form UCC-1 Financing Statements executed and delivered by such
                  Material Subsidiary naming it as the debtor and the
                  Administrative Agent as the secured party, or other similar
                  instruments or documents, filed under the UCC, of all
                  jurisdictions as may be necessary or, in the reasonable
                  opinion of the Administrative Agent, desirable to perfect the
                  security interest of the Administrative Agent pursuant to the
                  Subsidiary Security Agreement; and

                           (b) the Borrower shall promptly deliver, or cause to
                  be delivered, to the Administrative Agent under a Pledge
                  Agreement (or a supplement thereto) certificates (if any)
                  representing all of the issued and outstanding shares of
                  Capital Stock of any such Subsidiary that is a Material
                  Subsidiary owned by the Borrower or any U.S. Subsidiary of the
                  Borrower, as the case may be, along with undated stock powers
                  for such certificates, executed in blank, or, if any
                  securities subject thereto are uncertificated securities,
                  confirmation and evidence satisfactory to the Administrative
                  Agent that appropriate book entries have been made in the
                  relevant books or records of the issuer of such securities, or
                  other appropriate steps shall have been taken under Applicable
                  Law resulting in the perfection of the security interest
                  granted in favor of the Administrative Agent pursuant to the
                  terms of such Pledge Agreement;

         together, in each case, with such opinions, in form and substance and
         from counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, as
         the Administrative Agent may reasonably require; provided, however,
         that notwithstanding the foregoing, no Non-U.S. Subsidiary shall be
         required to execute and deliver a supplement to the Subsidiary Guaranty
         or a supplement to the Subsidiary Security Agreement, nor will the
         Borrower or any U.S. Subsidiary of the Borrower be required to deliver
         a pledge pursuant to a Pledge Agreement or a supplement thereto in
         excess of 65% of the outstanding voting stock of any Non-U.S.
         Subsidiary.

         (dd) Section 7.1.8 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended to read as
follows:

                  Section 7.1.8 Future Leased Property.

                           (a) Prior to entering into any new lease of real
                  property or renewing any existing lease of real property
                  following the Agreement Effective Date, the Borrower shall,
                  and shall cause each of its U.S. Subsidiaries to, use its best
                  efforts (which shall not require the expenditure of cash or
                  the making of any material concessions under the relevant
                  lease) to deliver to the Administrative Agent a Waiver
                  executed by the lessor of any real property that is to be
                  leased by the Borrower or such U.S. Subsidiary for a term in
                  excess of one year in any state which by

                                       17
<PAGE>

                  statute grants such lessor a "landlord's" (or similar) Lien
                  which is superior to the Administrative Agent's, to the extent

         Section 7.2.9) or release all or substantially all of the collateral
         security (except as otherwise specifically provided in any Loan
         Document) or extend the Revolving Loan Commitment Termination Date,
         shall be made without the consent of each Lender directly and adversely
         affected thereby and, with respect to the release of any Subsidiary
         Guarantor or the release of all or substantially all of the collateral

         Document), without the consent of each holder of any Hedging
         Obligations under a Rate Protection Agreement directly and adversely
         affected thereby;

         (nn) Article X of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by adding a
new Section 10.21 thereto to read as follows:

                  Section 10.21. Judgment Currency. If, for the purposes of
         obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due
         hereunder or any other Loan Document in one currency into another
         currency, the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in
         accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent
         could purchase the first currency with such other currency on the
         Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given. The
         obligation of the Borrower in respect of any such sum due from it to
         the Administrative Agent or the Lenders hereunder or under the other
         Loan Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the
         "Judgment Currency") other than that in which such sum is denominated
         in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement (the
         "Agreement Currency"), be discharged only to the extent that on the
         Business Day following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any sum
         adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Administrative
         Agent may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the
         Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency. If the amount of the
         Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to
         the Administrative Agent from the Borrower in the Agreement Currency,
         the Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any
         such judgment, to indemnify the Administrative Agent or the Person to
         whom such obligation was owing against such loss. If the amount of the
         Agreement Currency so purchased is greater than the sum originally due
         to the Administrative Agent in such currency, the Administrative Agent
         agrees to return the amount of any excess to the Borrower (or to any
         other Person who may be entitled thereto under Applicable Law).

together with, to the extent requested by such New Lender, copies of the
documents which were required to be delivered under the Credit Agreement as a
condition to the making of the Credit Agreement Extensions thereunder;

         (b) such New Lender further confirms and agrees that in becoming a

Agreement, such actions have and will be made without recourse to, or
representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent or any other Lender;

         (c) such New Lender represents and warrants that it is legally
authorized to enter into and deliver this First Amendment and become a Lender
under the Credit Agreement;

         (d) such New Lender has, independently and without reliance upon any
other Lender, or the Administrative Agent, and based on such documents and
information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, shall continue to make its
own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under the Credit Agreement,
the other Loan Documents and the other instruments and documents delivered in
connection therewith; and

         (e) such New Lender agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions set
forth in the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents as if it were an
original signatory thereto (and expressly makes the appointment set forth in,

Agreement).

         5. REFERENCE TO THE CREDIT AGREEMENT.

hereby.

above, shall remain in full force and effect and is hereby ratified and
confirmed.

         6. COSTS, EXPENSES AND TAXES. In addition to the fees and expenses
referred to in Sections 3(h) and (i) of this First Amendment, the Borrower
agrees to pay on demand all out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the
Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, reproduction, execution
and delivery of this First Amendment and the other instruments and documents to
be delivered hereunder (including the reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses
of counsel for the Administrative Agent with respect thereto).

         7. SUBSIDIARY GUARANTOR'S ACKNOWLEDGMENT. By signing below, each
Subsidiary Guarantor (a) acknowledges, consents and agrees to the execution,
delivery and performance by the Borrower of this First Amendment, (b)
acknowledges and agrees that its obligations in respect of its Subsidiary
Guaranty (i) are not released, diminished, waived, modified, impaired or
affected in any manner by this First Amendment or any of the provisions
contemplated herein and (ii) cover the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount, as
increased by this First Amendment, (c) ratifies and confirms its obligations
under its Subsidiary Guaranty, and (d) acknowledges and agrees that it has no
claims or offsets against, or defenses or counterclaims to, its Subsidiary
Guaranty.

         8. EXECUTION IN COUNTERPARTS. This First Amendment may be executed in

counterparts, each of

                                       27
<PAGE>

which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original and all
of which when taken together shall constitute but one and the same instrument.
For purposes of this First Amendment, a counterpart hereof (or signature page
thereto) signed and transmitted by any Person party hereto to the Administrative
Agent (or its counsel) by facsimile machine, telecopier or electronic mail is to
be treated as an original. The signature of such Person thereon, for purposes
hereof, is to be considered as an original signature, and the counterpart (or
signature page thereto) so transmitted is to be considered to have the same
binding effect as an original signature on an original document.

         9. GOVERNING LAW; BINDING EFFECT. This First Amendment shall be
governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of
Texas, provided that each party shall retain all rights arising under federal
law, and shall be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective
successors and assigns.

         10. HEADINGS. Section headings in this First Amendment are included
herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this
First Amendment for any other purpose.

         11. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. THE CREDIT AGREEMENT, AS AMENDED BY THIS FIRST
AMENDMENT, AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN
THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS,
OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL
AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES.
