RECITALS

WHEREAS, Borrowers desire that Lenders extend revolving and
term credit facilities to Borrowers of up to $50,000,000 in the aggregate (i)
on the Closing Date (x) to finance a portion of the Worthington Acquisition
including related expenses to the extent permitted hereunder and (y) to
finance the Preferred Stock Contribution, and (ii) at any time on or after
the Closing Date to provide working capital financing for Borrowers and funds
for other general corporate or limited liability company purposes of
Borrowers; and for these purposes, Lenders are willing to make certain loans
and other extensions of credit to Borrowers of up to such amount upon the
terms and conditions set forth herein; and

WHEREAS, Borrowers desire to secure all of their obligations
under the Loan Documents by granting to Agent, for the benefit of Agent and
Lenders, a security interest in and lien upon all of their existing and
after-acquired personal and real property; and

WHEREAS, Holdings is willing to guaranty all of the
obligations of Borrowers to Lenders under the Loan Documents and to pledge to
Agent to secure such guaranty, for the benefit of Agent and Lenders, all of
the equity interests in each Borrower owned by Holdings (which, in the case
of MCP, will consist of 100% of the outstanding membership interests of MCP);
and

WHEREAS, capitalized terms used in this Agreement shall have
the meanings ascribed to them in ANNEX A. All Annexes, Disclosure Schedules,
Exhibits and other attachments (collectively, "APPENDICES") hereto, or
expressly identified to this Agreement, are incorporated herein by reference,
and taken together, shall constitute but a single agreement. These Recitals
shall be construed as part of the Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the
mutual covenants hereinafter contained, and for other good and valuable
consideration, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. AMOUNT AND TERMS OF CREDIT

1.1. CREDIT FACILITIES

(a) REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITY.

(i) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof,
each Revolving Lender agrees to make available from time to time until the
Commitment Termination Date its Pro Rata Share of revolving credit advances
(each, a "REVOLVING CREDIT ADVANCE"). The Pro Rata Share of the Revolving
Loan of any Revolving Lender shall not at any time exceed its separate
Revolving Loan Commitment. The obligations of each Revolving Lender
hereunder shall be several and not joint. The aggregate amount of Revolving
Credit Advances outstanding shall not exceed at any time the lesser of (A)
the Maximum Amount and (B) the Aggregate Revolving Borrowing Base, in each
case less the sum of the Letter of Credit Obligations and the Swing Line Loan
outstanding at such time ("BORROWING AVAILABILITY"). Moreover, the sum of
the Revolving Loan and Swing Line Loan outstanding to any Borrower shall not
exceed at any time that Borrower's separate Revolving Borrowing Base. Until
the Commitment Termination Date, Borrowers may from time to time borrow,
repay and reborrow under this SECTION 1.1(a). Each Revolving Credit Advance
shall be made on notice by Borrower Representative on behalf of the
applicable Borrower to the representative of Agent identified on SCHEDULE 1.1
at the address specified thereon. Those notices must be given no later than
(1) 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the Business Day of the proposed Revolving
Credit Advance, in the case of an Index Rate Loan, or (2)11:00 a.m. (New York
time) on the date which is three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed
Revolving Credit Advance, in the case of a LIBOR Loan. Each such notice (a
"NOTICE OF REVOLVING CREDIT ADVANCE") must be given in writing (by telecopy
or overnight courier) substantially in the form of EXHIBIT 1.1(a)(i), and
shall include the information required in such Exhibit and such other
information as may be required by Agent. If any Borrower desires to have the
Revolving Credit Advances bear interest by reference to a LIBOR Rate,
Borrower Representative must comply with SECTION 1.5(e).

(ii) Each Borrower shall execute and deliver to each
Revolving Lender a note to evidence the Revolving Loan Commitment of that
Revolving Lender. Each note shall be in the principal amount of the
Revolving Loan Commitment of the applicable Revolving Lender, dated the
Closing Date and substantially in the form of EXHIBIT 1.1(a)(ii) (each a
"REVOLVING NOTE" and, collectively, the "REVOLVING NOTES"). Each Revolving
Note shall represent the obligation of each Borrower to pay the amount of
each Revolving Lender's Revolving Loan Commitment or, if less, the applicable
Revolving Lender's Pro Rata Share of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of
all Revolving Credit Advances to such Borrower together with interest thereon
as prescribed in SECTION 1.5. The entire unpaid balance of the aggregate
Revolving Loan and all other non-contingent Obligations shall be immediately
due and payable in full in immediately available funds on the Commitment
Termination Date.

(iii) At the request of Borrower Representative, in
its discretion Agent may (but shall have absolutely no obligation to), make
Revolving Credit Advances to Borrowers on behalf of Revolving Lenders in
amounts which cause the outstanding balance of the aggregate Revolving Loan
to exceed the Aggregate Revolving Borrowing Base (less the Swing Line Loan)
or which cause the outstanding balance of the Revolving Loan owing by any
Borrower to exceed that Borrower's separate Revolving Borrowing Base (less
the Swing Line Loan advanced to that Borrower) (any such excess Revolving
Credit Advances are herein referred to collectively as "REVOLVING
OVERADVANCES"), and no such event or occurrence shall cause or constitute a
waiver by Agent or Lenders of any Default or Event of Default that may result
therefrom or of Agent's, Swing Line Lender's or Revolving Lenders' right to
refuse to make any further Revolving Overadvances, Swing Line Advances or
Revolving Credit Advances, or incur any Letter of Credit Obligations, as the
case may be, at any time that a Revolving Overadvance exists or would result
therefrom. In addition, Revolving Overadvances may be made even if the
conditions to lending set forth in SECTION 2 have not been met. All
Revolving Overadvances shall constitute Index Rate Loans, shall bear interest
at the Default Rate and shall be payable on demand. Except as otherwise
provided in SECTION 1.13(b), the authority of Agent to make Revolving
Overadvances is limited to an aggregate amount not to exceed $1,500,000 at
any time, shall not cause the aggregate Revolving Loan to exceed the Maximum
Amount, and may be revoked prospectively by a written notice to Agent signed
by Revolving Lenders holding fifty percent (50%) or more of the Revolving
Loan Commitments.

(b) TERM LOAN.

(i) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof,
each Term Lender agrees to make a term loan on the Closing Date to MCP (the
"TERM LOAN") in the original principal amount of its Term Loan Commitment,
and the Term Loan shall consist of (and shall in no event exceed): (1)
$18,000,000 (such amount being hereinafter called the "IN-FORMULA TERM
SUB-LIMIT"); PLUS (2) $8,000,000 (the "TERM OVERADVANCE").

The obligations of each Term Lender hereunder shall be several
and not joint. The Term Loan shall be evidenced by promissory notes
substantially in the form of EXHIBIT 1.1(b) (each a "TERM NOTE" and
collectively the "TERM NOTES"), and MCP shall execute and deliver its
respective Term Note to the applicable Term Lender. Each Term Note shall
represent the obligation of MCP to pay the amount of the applicable Term
Lender's Term Loan Commitment to MCP, together with interest thereon as
prescribed in SECTION 1.5.

(ii) On each date set forth below, MCP shall pay the
principal amount of the Term Loan in the installment set forth opposite such
date (with all such principal payments being deemed to be applied first to
the Term Overadvance until the Term Overadvance is repaid in full, and then
to the In-Formula Term Sub-Limit):

June 30, 2003 $5,000,000
October 15, 2003 $5,000,000

(iii) Notwithstanding the foregoing CLAUSE (ii), the
aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan shall be due and
payable in full in immediately available funds on the Commitment Termination
Date, if not sooner paid in full.

(iv) Each payment of principal with respect to the
Term Loan shall be paid to Agent for the ratable benefit of each Term Lender
making a Term Loan ratably in proportion to each such Term Lender's
respective Term Loan Commitment.

(i) Agent shall notify the Swing Line Lender upon
Agent's receipt of any Notice of Revolving Credit Advance. Subject to the
terms and conditions hereof, the Swing Line Lender may, in its discretion,
make available from time to time until the Commitment Termination Date
advances (each, a "SWING LINE ADVANCE") in accordance with any such notice.
The aggregate amount of Swing Line Advances outstanding shall not exceed the
lesser of (A) the Swing Line Commitment and (B) the lesser of the Maximum
Amount and (except for Revolving Overadvances) the Aggregate Revolving
Borrowing Base, in each case, less the outstanding balance of the Revolving
Loan at such time ("SWING LINE AVAILABILITY"). Moreover, except for
Revolving Overadvances, the Swing Line Loan outstanding to any Borrower shall
not exceed at any time that Borrower's separate Revolving Borrowing Base less
the Revolving Loan outstanding to such Borrower. Until the Commitment
Termination

Date, Borrowers may from time to time borrow, repay and reborrow under this
SECTION 1.1(c). Each Swing Line Advance shall be made pursuant to a Notice
of Revolving Credit Advance delivered to Agent by Borrower Representative on
behalf of the applicable Borrower in accordance with SECTION 1.1(a). Those
notices must be given no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the
Business Day of the proposed Swing Line Advance. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, the Swing Line Loan
shall constitute an Index Rate Loan. Borrowers shall repay the aggregate
outstanding principal amount of the Swing Line Loan upon demand therefor by
Agent.

(ii) Each Borrower shall execute and deliver to the
Swing Line Lender a promissory note to evidence the Swing Line Commitment.
Each note shall be in the principal amount of the Swing Line Commitment of
the Swing Line Lender, dated the Closing Date and substantially in the form
of EXHIBIT 1.1(c)(ii) (each a "SWING LINE NOTE" and, collectively, the
"SWING LINE NOTES"). Each Swing Line Note shall represent the obligation of
each Borrower to pay the amount of the Swing Line Commitment or, if less, the
aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Swing Line Advances made to such
Borrower together with interest thereon as prescribed in SECTION 1.5. The
entire unpaid balance of the Swing Line Loan and all other non-contingent
Obligations shall be immediately due and payable in full in immediately
available funds on the Commitment Termination Date if not sooner paid in full.

(iii) REFUNDING OF SWING LINE LOANS. The Swing Line
Lender, at any time and from time to time in its sole and absolute
discretion, but not less frequently than weekly, may on behalf of any
Borrower (and each Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes the Swing Line
Lender to so act on its behalf) request each Revolving Lender (including the
Swing Line Lender) to make a Revolving Credit Advance to such Borrower (which
shall be an Index Rate Loan) in an amount equal to such Revolving Lender's
Pro Rata Share of the principal amount of such Borrower's Swing Line Loan
(the "REFUNDED SWING LINE LOAN") outstanding on the date such notice is
given. Unless any of the events described in SECTIONS 8.1(h) OR 8.1(i) shall
have occurred (in which event the procedures of SECTION 1.1(c)(iv) shall
apply) and regardless of whether the conditions precedent set forth in this
Agreement to the making of a Revolving Credit Advance are then satisfied,
each Revolving Lender shall disburse directly to Agent, its Pro Rata Share of
a Revolving Credit Advance on behalf of the Swing Line Lender, prior to 3:00
p.m. (New York time), in immediately available funds on the Business Day next
succeeding the date such notice is given. The proceeds of such Revolving
Credit Advances shall be immediately paid to the Swing Line Lender and
applied to repay the Refunded Swing Line Loan of the applicable Borrower.

(iv) PARTICIPATION IN SWING LINE LOANS. If, prior
to refunding a Swing Line Loan with a Revolving Credit Advance pursuant to
SECTION 1.1(c)(iii), one of the events described in SECTIONS 8.1(h) OR 8.1(i)
shall have occurred, then, subject to the provisions of SECTION 1.1(c)(v)
below, each Revolving Lender will, on the date such Revolving Credit Advance
was to have been made for the benefit of the applicable Borrower, purchase
from the Swing Line Lender an undivided participation interest in the Swing
Line Loan to

such Borrower in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of such Swing Line
Loan. Upon request, each Revolving Lender will promptly transfer to the
Swing Line Lender, in immediately available funds, the amount of its
participation.

(v) REVOLVING LENDERS' OBLIGATIONS UNCONDITIONAL.
Each Revolving Lender's obligation to make Revolving Credit Advances in
accordance with SECTION 1.1(c)(iii) and to purchase participating interests
in accordance with SECTION 1.1(c)(iv) shall be absolute and unconditional and
shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff,
counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Revolving Lender
may have against the Swing Line Lender, any Borrower or any other Person for
any reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or continuance of any Default or
Event of Default; (C) any inability of any Borrower to satisfy the conditions
precedent to borrowing set forth in this Agreement on the date upon which
such participating interest is to be purchased or (D) any other circumstance,
happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the
foregoing. If any Revolving Lender does not make available to Agent or the
Swing Line Lender, as applicable, the amount required pursuant to SECTION
1.1(c)(iii) or 1.1(c)(iv), as the case may be, the Swing Line Lender shall be
entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Revolving Lender,
together with interest thereon for each day from the date of non-payment
until such amount is paid in full at the Federal Funds Rate for the first two
Business Days and at the Index Rate thereafter.

(d) RELIANCE ON NOTICES; APPOINTMENT OF BORROWER
REPRESENTATIVE. Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall be fully
protected in relying upon, any Notice of Revolving Credit Advance, Notice of
Conversion/Continuation or similar notice believed by Agent to be genuine.
Agent may assume that each Person executing and delivering such a notice was
duly authorized, unless the responsible individual acting thereon for Agent
has actual knowledge to the contrary. Each Borrower hereby designates MCP as
its representative and agent on its behalf for the purposes of issuing
Notices of Revolving Credit Advances and Notices of Conversion/Continuation,
giving instructions with respect to the disbursement of the proceeds of the
Loans, selecting interest rate options, requesting Letters of Credit, giving
and receiving all other notices and consents hereunder or under any of the
other Loan Documents and taking all other actions (including in respect of
compliance with covenants) on behalf of any Borrower or Borrowers under the
Loan Documents. Borrower Representative hereby accepts such appointment.
Agent and each Lender may regard any notice or other communication pursuant
to any Loan Document from Borrower Representative as a notice or
communication from all Borrowers, and may give any notice or communication
required or permitted to be given to any Borrower or Borrowers hereunder to
Borrower Representative on behalf of such Borrower or Borrowers. Each
Borrower agrees that each notice, election, representation and warranty,
covenant, agreement and undertaking made on its behalf by Borrower
Representative shall be deemed for all purposes to have been made by such
Borrower and shall be binding upon and enforceable against such Borrower to
the same extent as if the same had been made directly by such Borrower.

1.2. LETTERS OF CREDIT. Subject to and in accordance with
the terms and conditions contained herein and in ANNEX B, Borrower
Representative, on behalf of the applicable Borrower, shall have the right to
request, and Revolving Lenders agree to incur, or purchase participations in,
Letter of Credit Obligations in respect of each Borrower.

1.3. PREPAYMENTS

(a) VOLUNTARY PREPAYMENTS. Borrowers may at any time on at
least five (5) days' prior written notice by Borrower Representative to Agent
voluntarily prepay all (but not less than all) of the Term Loan; PROVIDED
that MCP shall be permitted to make partial prepayments of the Term
Overadvance so long as any such prepayments shall be in a minimum amount of
$500,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess of such amount. In
addition, Borrowers may at any time on at least ten (10) days' prior written
notice by Borrower Representative to Agent terminate the Revolving Loan
Commitment; provided that upon such termination, all Loans and other
Obligations shall be immediately due and payable in full. Any such voluntary
prepayment and any such termination of the Revolving Loan Commitment must be
accompanied by the payment of the fee required by SECTION 1.9(c), if any,
plus the payment of any LIBOR funding breakage costs in accordance with
SECTION 1.13(b). Upon any such prepayment and termination of the Revolving
Loan Commitment, each Borrower's right to request Revolving Credit Advances,
or request that Letter of Credit Obligations be incurred on its behalf, or
request Swing Line Advances, shall simultaneously be terminated. Any partial
prepayments of the Term Overadvance of any Borrower shall be applied to
prepay the scheduled installments of such Borrower's Term Loans in inverse
order of maturity (it being understood that such payments shall be deemed to
be applied first against the Term Overadvance of such Borrower).

(b) MANDATORY PREPAYMENTS.

(i) If at any time the outstanding balance of the
aggregate Revolving Loan exceeds the lesser of (A) the Maximum Amount and (B)
the Aggregate Revolving Borrowing Base, LESS, in each case, the aggregate
outstanding Swing Line Loan at such time, Borrowers shall immediately repay
the aggregate outstanding Revolving Credit Advances to the extent required to
eliminate such excess. If any such excess remains after repayment in full of
the aggregate outstanding Revolving Credit Advances, Borrowers shall provide
cash collateral for the Letter of Credit Obligations in the manner set forth
in ANNEX B to the extent required to eliminate such excess. Furthermore, if
the outstanding balance of the Revolving Loan of any Borrower exceeds that
Borrower's separate Revolving Borrowing Base at any time less the outstanding
balance of the Swing Line Loan of such Borrower at such time, the applicable
Borrower shall immediately repay its Revolving Credit Advances in the amount
of such excess (and, if necessary, shall provide cash collateral for its
Letter of Credit Obligations as described above). Notwithstanding the
foregoing, any Revolving Overadvance made pursuant to Section 1.1(a)(iii)
shall be repaid only on demand.

(ii) Immediately upon receipt by any Credit Party of
proceeds of any asset disposition (including condemnation proceeds, but
excluding proceeds of asset dispositions permitted by SECTION 6.8 (a)) or any
sale of Stock of any Subsidiary of any Credit Party, Borrowers shall prepay
the Loans in an amount equal to all such proceeds, net of (A) commissions and
other reasonable and customary transaction costs, fees and expenses properly
attributable to such transaction and payable by Borrowers in connection
therewith (in each case, paid to non-Affiliates), (B) transfer taxes, (C)
amounts payable to holders of senior Liens (to the extent such Liens
constitute Permitted Encumbrances hereunder), if any, and (D) an appropriate
reserve for income taxes in accordance with GAAP in connection therewith.
Any such prepayment shall be applied in accordance with CLAUSE (c) below.

(iii) Until the date on which (x) the Term
Overadvance is repaid in full and the aggregate principal amount of the Term
Loan outstanding is less than $9,000,000, if Holdings or any Borrower issues
any Stock or incurs any Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness permitted by
SECTION 6.3), no later than the Business Day following the date of receipt of
the proceeds thereof, all Borrowers (in the case of an issuance by Holdings)
or the issuing/incurring Borrower shall prepay the Loans in an aggregate
amount equal to all such proceeds, net of underwriting discounts and
commissions and other reasonable costs paid to non-Affiliates in connection
therewith. Any such prepayment shall be applied in accordance with CLAUSE
(c) below.

(iv) Until the date on which the Term Overadvance is
repaid in full, Borrowers shall prepay the Obligations on the earlier of the
date which is ten (10) days after (A) the date on which Holdings' annual
audited Financial Statements for the immediately preceding Fiscal Year are
delivered pursuant to ANNEX E or (B) the date on which such annual audited
Financial Statements were required to be delivered pursuant to ANNEX E, in an
amount equal to 75% of Excess Cash Flow for the immediately preceding Fiscal
Year. Any prepayments from Excess Cash Flow paid pursuant to this CLAUSE
(iv) shall be allocated to each Borrower's Obligations based upon such
Borrower's relative contribution to Excess Cash Flow and shall be applied in
accordance with CLAUSE (c) below. Each such prepayment shall be accompanied
by a certificate signed by Borrower Representative's chief financial officer
certifying the manner in which Excess Cash Flow, the resulting prepayment,
and the method of allocation to each Borrower's Obligations were calculated,
which certificate shall be in form and substance satisfactory to Agent.

(i) Any prepayments made by any Borrower pursuant
to CLAUSE (b)(ii) above shall be applied as follows: FIRST, to Fees and
reimbursable expenses of Agent then due and payable pursuant to any of the
Loan Documents; SECOND, to interest then due and payable on MCP's Term Loan;
THIRD, to prepay the scheduled installments of MCP's Term Loan in inverse
order of maturity, until such Loan shall have been prepaid in full (it being
understood that such payments shall be deemed to be applied first against the
Term Overadvance); FOURTH, to interest then due and payable on such
Borrower's Swing Line Loan; FIFTH, to the principal balance of the Swing Line
Loan outstanding to such Borrower until the same shall have been repaid in
full; SIXTH, to interest then due and payable on Revolving Credit Advances
made to such Borrower; SEVENTH, to the principal balance of Revolving Credit
Advances outstanding to such Borrower until the same shall have been paid in
full; EIGHTH, to any Letter of Credit Obligations of such Borrower to provide
cash collateral therefor in the manner set forth in ANNEX B, until all such
Letter of Credit Obligations have been fully cash collateralized in the
manner set forth in ANNEX B; NINTH, to interest then due and payable on the
Swing Line Loan of each other Borrower, PRO RATA; TENTH, to the principal
balance of the Swing Line Loan outstanding to each other Borrower, PRO RATA,
until the same shall have been repaid in full; ELEVENTH, to interest then due
and payable on the Revolving Credit Advances outstanding to each other
Borrower, PRO RATA; TWELFTH, to the principal balance of the Revolving Credit
Advances made to each other Borrower, PRO RATA, until the same shall have
been paid in full, and LAST to any Letter of Credit Obligations of each other
Borrower, PRO RATA, to provide cash collateral therefor in the manner set
forth in ANNEX B, until all such Letter of Credit Obligations have been fully
cash collateralized. Neither the Revolving Loan Commitment nor the Swing
Line Commitment shall be permanently reduced by the amount of any such
prepayments.

(ii) Any prepayments made by any Borrower pursuant
to CLAUSE (b)(iii) above shall be applied as follows: FIRST, to Fees and
reimbursable expenses of Agent then due and payable pursuant to any of the
Loan Documents; SECOND, to interest then due and payable on that portion of
MCP's Term Loan in excess of $9,000,000; and THIRD, to prepay the scheduled
installments of MCP's Term Loan in inverse order of maturity until (x) the
Term Overadvance shall have been repaid in full and (y) the aggregate
principal amount of the Term Loan outstanding is less than $9,000,000 (it
being understood that such payments shall be deemed to be applied first
against the Term Overadvance).

(iii) Any prepayments made by any Borrower pursuant
to CLAUSE (b)(iv) above shall be applied as follows: FIRST, to Fees and
reimbursable expenses of Agent then due and payable pursuant to any of the
Loan Documents; SECOND, to interest then due and payable on the Term
Overadvance; and THIRD, to prepay the scheduled installments of MCP's Term
Loan in inverse order of maturity until the Term Overadvance shall have been
prepaid in full.

(d) APPLICATION OF PREPAYMENTS FROM INSURANCE PROCEEDS.
Prepayments from insurance proceeds in accordance with SECTION 5.4(c) shall
be applied as follows:

insurance proceeds from casualties or losses to cash or Inventory shall be
applied, first, to the Swing Line Loans and, second, to the Revolving Credit
Advances of the Borrower that incurred such casualties or losses; insurance
proceeds from casualties or losses to Equipment, Fixtures and Real Estate
shall be applied to scheduled installments of the Term Loan in inverse order
of maturity. Neither the Revolving Loan Commitment nor the Swing Line Loan
Commitment shall be permanently reduced by the amount of any such
prepayments. If the insurance proceeds received as to a particular Borrower
exceed the outstanding principal balances of the Loans to that Borrower or if
the precise amount of insurance proceeds allocable to Inventory as compared
to Equipment, Fixtures and Real Estate are not otherwise determined, the
allocation and application of those proceeds shall be as reasonably
determined by Agent, subject to the approval of Requisite Lenders.

(e) Nothing in this SECTION 1.3 shall be construed to
constitute Agent's or any Lender's consent to any transaction referred to in
CLAUSES (b)(ii) and (b)(iii) above which is not permitted by other
provisions of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

1.4. USE OF PROCEEDS. Borrowers shall utilize the proceeds
of the Term Loan, the Revolving Loan and the Swing Line Advances solely (x)
on the Closing Date, for the Worthington Acquisition and to finance the
Preferred Stock Contribution (and, in each case, to pay any related
transaction expenses), and (y) at any time on or after the Closing Date, for
the financing of Borrowers' ordinary working capital and general corporate
and limited liability company needs (but excluding in any event the making of
any Restricted Payment not specifically permitted by SECTION 6.14).
DISCLOSURE SCHEDULE (1.4) contains a description of Borrowers' sources and
uses of funds as of the Closing Date, including Loans and Letter of Credit
Obligations to be made or incurred on that date, and a funds flow memorandum
detailing how funds from each source are to be transferred to particular
uses.

1.5. INTEREST AND APPLICABLE MARGINS. (a) Borrowers shall
pay interest to Agent, for the ratable benefit of Lenders in accordance with
the various Loans being made by each Lender, in arrears on each applicable
Interest Payment Date, at the following rates: (i) with respect to the
Revolving Credit Advances, the Index Rate plus the Applicable Revolver Index
Margin per annum or, at the election of Borrower Representative, the
applicable LIBOR Rate plus the Applicable Revolver LIBOR Margin per annum,
based on the aggregate Revolving Credit Advances outstanding from time to
time; (ii) with respect to the In-Formula Term Sub-Limit, the Index Rate
plus the Applicable In-Formula Term Loan Index Margin per annum or, at the
election of Borrower Representative, the applicable LIBOR Rate plus the
Applicable In-Formula Term Loan LIBOR Margin per annum; (iii) with respect to
the Term Overadvance, the Index Rate plus the Applicable Overadvance Index
Margin per annum or, at the election of Borrower Representative, the
applicable LIBOR Rate plus the Applicable Overadvance LIBOR Margin per annum;
and (iv) with respect to the Swing Line Loan, the Index Rate plus the
Applicable Revolver Index Margin per annum.

The Applicable Revolver Index Margin, Applicable In-Formula
Term Loan Index Margin, Applicable Overadvance Index Margin, Applicable
Revolver LIBOR Margin, Applicable In-Formula Term Loan LIBOR Margin and
Applicable Overadvance LIBOR Margin will be 0.50%, 0.50%, 2.00%, 2.50% 2.50%
and 4.00% per annum, respectively, as of the Closing Date. The Applicable
Margins will be adjusted (up or down) prospectively on a quarterly basis as
determined by Holdings' consolidated financial performance, commencing with
the first day of the first calendar month that occurs more than five (5) days
after delivery of Holdings' quarterly Financial Statements to Lenders for the
Fiscal Quarter ending June 30, 2000. Adjustments in Applicable Margins will
be determined by reference to the following grids:

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

PERIOD THEN ENDED IS: APPLICABLE MARGINS:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

All adjustments in the Applicable Margins after June 30, 2000
will be implemented quarterly on a prospective basis, for each calendar month
commencing at least five (5) days after the date of delivery to Lenders of the
quarterly unaudited or annual audited (as applicable) Financial Statements of
Borrowers evidencing the need for an adjustment. Concurrently with the delivery
of those Financial Statements, Borrower Representative shall deliver to Agent
and Lenders a certificate, signed by its chief financial officer, setting forth
in reasonable detail the basis for the continuance of, or any change in, the
Applicable Margins.

If a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred or be continuing at the
time any reduction in the Applicable Margins is to be implemented, that
reduction shall be deferred until the first day of the first calendar month
following the date on which such Default or Event of Default is waived or
cured.

(b) If any payment on any Loan becomes due and payable 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, with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be
payable at the then applicable rate during such extension.

(c) All computations of Fees calculated on a per annum
basis and interest shall be made by Agent on the basis of a three hundred and
sixty (360) day year, in each case for the actual number of days occurring in
the period for which such interest and Fees are payable. The Index Rate
shall be determined each day based upon the Index Rate as in effect each day.
Each determination by Agent of an interest rate and Fees hereunder shall be
conclusive, absent manifest error.

(d) So long as an Event of Default shall have occurred and
be continuing under Section 8.1(a), (h) or (i) or so long as any other
Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and at the
election of Agent (or upon the written request of Requisite Lenders)
confirmed by written notice from Agent to Borrower Representative, the
interest rates applicable to the Loans and the Letter of Credit Fees shall be
increased by two percent (2%) per annum above the rates of interest or the
rate of such Fees otherwise applicable hereunder ("DEFAULT RATE"), and all
outstanding Obligations shall bear interest at the Default Rate applicable to
such Obligations. Interest and Letter of Credit Fees at the Default Rate
shall accrue from the initial date of such Default or Event of Default until
that Default or Event of Default is cured or waived and shall be payable upon
demand.

(e) So long as no Default or Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, and subject to the additional conditions
precedent set forth in SECTION 2.2, Borrower Representative shall have the
option to (i) request that any Revolving Credit Advances be made as a LIBOR
Loan, (ii) convert at any time all or any part of outstanding Loans (other
than the Swing Line Loan) from Index Rate Loans to LIBOR Loans, (iii) convert
any LIBOR Loan to an Index Rate Loan, subject to payment of LIBOR breakage
costs in accordance with SECTION 1.13(b) if such conversion is made prior to
the expiration of the LIBOR Period applicable thereto, or (iv) continue all
or any portion of any Loan (other than the Swing Line Loan) as a LIBOR Loan
upon the expiration of the applicable LIBOR Period and the succeeding LIBOR
Period of that continued Loan shall commence on the last day of the LIBOR
Period of the Loan to be continued. Any Loan to be made or continued as, or
converted into, a LIBOR Loan must be in a minimum amount of $2,000,000 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 the third (3rd) Business Day
prior to (1) the date of any proposed Advance which is to bear interest at
the LIBOR Rate, (2) the end of each LIBOR Period with

respect to any LIBOR Loans to be continued as such, or (3) the date on which
Borrower Representative wishes to convert any Index Rate Loan to a LIBOR Loan
for a LIBOR Period designated by Borrower Representative in such election.
If no election is received with respect to a LIBOR Loan 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 a Default or an Event of Default shall
have occurred and be continuing or if the additional conditions precedent set
forth in SECTION 2.2 shall not have been satisfied), that LIBOR Loan shall be
converted to an Index Rate Loan at the end of its LIBOR Period. Borrower
Representative must make such election by notice to 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 1.5(e).

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in
this SECTION 1.5, if a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final
order that the rate of interest payable hereunder exceeds the highest rate of
interest permissible under law (the "MAXIMUM LAWFUL RATE"), then so long as
the Maximum Lawful Rate would be so exceeded, the rate of interest payable
hereunder shall be equal to the Maximum Lawful Rate; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that
if at any time thereafter the rate of interest payable hereunder is less than
the Maximum Lawful Rate, Borrowers shall continue to pay interest hereunder
at the Maximum Lawful Rate until such time as the total interest received by
Agent, on behalf of Lenders, is equal to the total interest which would have
been received had the interest rate payable hereunder been (but for the
operation of this paragraph) the interest rate payable since the Closing Date
as otherwise provided in this Agreement. Thereafter, interest hereunder
shall be paid at the rate(s) of interest and in the manner provided in
SECTIONS 1.5(a) through (e) above, unless and until the rate of interest
again exceeds the Maximum Lawful Rate, and at that time this paragraph shall
again apply. In no event shall the total interest received by any Lender
pursuant to the terms hereof exceed the amount which such Lender could
lawfully have received had the interest due hereunder been calculated for the
full term hereof at the Maximum Lawful Rate. If the Maximum Lawful Rate is
calculated pursuant to this paragraph, such interest shall be calculated at a
daily rate equal to the Maximum Lawful Rate divided by the number of days in
the year in which such calculation is made. If, notwithstanding the
provisions of this SECTION 1.5(f), a court of competent jurisdiction shall
finally determine that a Lender has received interest hereunder in excess of
the Maximum Lawful Rate, Agent shall, to the extent permitted by applicable
law, promptly apply such excess in the order specified in SECTION 1.11 and
thereafter shall refund any excess to Borrowers or as a court of competent
jurisdiction may otherwise order.

1.6. ELIGIBLE ACCOUNTS. Based on the most recent Revolving
Borrowing Base Certificate delivered by each Borrower to Agent and on other
information available to Agent, Agent shall in its reasonable credit judgment
determine which Accounts of each Borrower shall be "ELIGIBLE ACCOUNTS" for
purposes of this Agreement. In determining whether a particular Account of
any Borrower constitutes an Eligible Account, Agent shall not include any
such Account to which any of the exclusionary criteria set forth below
applies. Agent reserves the right, at any time and from time to time after
the Closing Date, to adjust any such

criteria, to establish new criteria, in its reasonable credit judgment,
subject to the approval of Supermajority Revolving Lenders in the case of
adjustments or new criteria which have the effect of making more credit
available. Eligible Accounts shall not include any Account of any Borrower:

(a) which does not arise from the sale of goods or the
performance of services by such Borrower in the ordinary course of its
business;

(b) (i) upon which such Borrower's right to receive
payment is not absolute or is contingent upon the fulfillment of any
condition whatsoever or (ii) as to which such Borrower is not able to bring
suit or otherwise enforce its remedies against the Account Debtor through
judicial process or (iii) if the Account represents a progress billing
consisting of an invoice for goods sold or used or services rendered pursuant
to a contract under which the Account Debtor's obligation to pay that invoice
is subject to such Borrower's completion of further performance under such
contract or is subject to the equitable lien of a surety bond issuer;

(d) that is not a true and correct statement of bona fide
indebtedness incurred in the amount of the Account for merchandise sold to or
services rendered and accepted by the applicable Account Debtor;

(e) with respect to which an invoice, acceptable to Agent
in form and substance, has not been sent to the applicable Account Debtor;

(f) that (i) is not owned by such Borrower or (ii) is
subject to any right, claim, security interest or other interest of any other
Person, other than Liens in favor of Agent, on behalf of itself and Lenders;

(g) that arises from a sale to any director, officer, other
employee or Affiliate of any Credit Party, or to any entity which has a
majority of directors who are also directors of any Credit Party;

(h) that is the obligation of an Account Debtor that is the
United States government or a political subdivision thereof, or any state or
municipality or department, agency or instrumentality thereof unless Agent,
in its sole discretion, has agreed to the contrary in writing and such
Borrower, if necessary or desirable, has complied with the Federal Assignment
of Claims Act of 1940, and any amendments thereto, or any applicable state
statute or municipal ordinance of similar purpose and effect, with respect to
such obligation;

(i) that is the obligation of an Account Debtor located in
a foreign country other than Canada (excluding the provinces of Quebec,
Newfoundland, Nova Scotia and ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Island) unless payment thereof is
assured by a letter of credit assigned and delivered to Agent, satisfactory
to Agent as to form, amount and issue; PROVIDED that obligations of the
Permitted Foreign Account Debtors to the extent not in excess of $2,000,000
in the aggregate shall not be excluded from Eligible Accounts by reason of
this CLAUSE (i);

(j) to the extent such Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof
is liable for goods sold or services rendered by the applicable Account
Debtor (including, without limitation, with respect to any resin expenses
owing to General Electric Company or any of its Affiliates) to such Borrower
or any Subsidiary thereof but only to the extent of the potential offset;

(k) that arises with respect to goods which are delivered
on a ▇▇▇▇-and-hold, cash-on-delivery basis or placed on consignment,
guaranteed sale or other terms by reason of which the payment by the Account
Debtor is or may be conditional;

(l) that is in default; PROVIDED, THAT, without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, an Account shall be deemed in default upon
the occurrence of any of the following:

(i) it is not paid within the earlier of: sixty
(60) days following its due date or ninety (90) days following its original
invoice date;

(ii) if any Account Debtor obligated upon such
Account suspends business, makes a general assignment for the benefit of
creditors or fails to pay its debts generally as they come due; or

(iii) if any petition is filed by or against any
Account Debtor obligated upon such Account under any bankruptcy law or any
other federal, state or foreign (including any provincial) receivership,
insolvency relief or other law or laws for the relief of debtors;

(m) which is the obligation of an Account Debtor if fifty
percent (50%) or more of the dollar amount of all Accounts owing by that
Account Debtor are ineligible under the criteria set forth in clause (l) of
this SECTION 1.6;

(n) as to which Agent's Lien thereon, on behalf of itself
and Lenders, is not a first priority perfected Lien;

(o) as to which any of the representations or warranties
pertaining to Accounts set forth in this Agreement or the Borrower Security
Agreement is untrue;

(p) to the extent such Account is evidenced by a judgment,
Instrument or Chattel Paper;

(q) to the extent such Account exceeds any credit limit
established by Agent, in its reasonable discretion, following prior notice of
such limit by Agent to Borrower Representative;

(r) to the extent that such Account, together with all
other Accounts owing by such Account Debtor and its Affiliates as of any date
of determination exceed ten percent (10%) (or, in the case of an Account
Debtor consisting of any (i) Account Debtor (other than the ones referred to
in clause (ii) below) whose senior unsecured long-term debt is rated at least
BBB by ▇▇▇▇▇'▇ Investors Service, Inc. or the equivalent thereof by Standard
& Poor's Ratings Group or other nationally recognized rating agency
acceptable to Agent, twenty percent (20%) or (ii) of General Electric
Corporation, International Business Machine Corporation, BE Aerospace, Inc.
or ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Corporation, twenty-five percent (25%)) of all Eligible Accounts;

(s) which is payable in any currency other than Dollars; or

(t) which is unacceptable to Agent in its reasonable credit
judgment relating to such Account or the applicable Account Debtor.

1.7. ELIGIBLE INVENTORY. Based on the most recent Revolving
Borrowing Base Certificate delivered by each Borrower to Agent and on other
information available to Agent, Agent shall in its reasonable credit judgment
determine which Inventory of each Borrower shall be "ELIGIBLE INVENTORY" for
purposes of this Agreement. In determining whether any particular Inventory
of any Borrower constitutes Eligible Inventory, Agent shall not include any
such Inventory to which any of the exclusionary criteria set forth below
applies. Agent reserves the right, at any time and from time to time after
the Closing Date, to adjust any such criteria and to establish new criteria,
in its reasonable credit judgment, subject to the approval of Supermajority
Revolving Lenders in the case of adjustments or new criteria which have the
effect of making more credit available. Eligible Inventory shall not include
any Inventory of any Borrower that:

(a) is not owned by such Borrower free and clear of all
Liens and rights of any other Person (including the rights of a purchaser
that has made progress payments and the rights of a surety that has issued a
bond to assure such Borrower's performance with respect to that Inventory),
except the Liens in favor of Agent, on behalf of itself and Lenders, and
Permitted Encumbrances in favor of landlords and bailees to the extent
permitted in SECTION 5.9 hereof (subject to Reserves established by Agent in
accordance with Section 5.9 hereof);

(b) (i) is not located on premises owned or leased by such
Borrower or (ii) is stored with a bailee, warehouseman or similar Person,
unless Agent has given its prior consent thereto and unless (x) a
satisfactory bailee letter or landlord waiver has been delivered to Agent, or
(y) Reserves satisfactory to Agent have been established with respect
thereto, or

(iii) is located at any site if the aggregate book value of Inventory at any
such location is less than $100,000;

(d) is covered by a negotiable document of title, unless
such document has been delivered to Agent with all necessary endorsements,
free and clear of all Liens except those in favor of Agent and Lenders;

(e) in Agent's reasonable determination, is excess,
obsolete, unsalable, shopworn, seconds, damaged or unfit for sale;

(f) consists of display items or packing or shipping
materials, manufacturing supplies or replacement parts;

(g) consists of goods which have been returned by the buyer;

(h) is not of a type held for sale in the ordinary course
of such Borrower's business;

(i) as to which Agent's Lien, on behalf of itself and
Lenders, therein is not a first priority perfected Lien;

(j) as to which any of the representations or warranties
pertaining to Inventory set forth in this Agreement or the Borrower Security
Agreement is untrue;

(k) consists of any costs associated with "freight-in"
charges;

(l) consists of Hazardous Materials or goods that can be
transported or sold only with licenses that are not readily available;

(m) is not covered by casualty insurance meeting the
requirements of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; or

(n) is otherwise unacceptable to Agent in its reasonable
credit judgment relating to such Inventory.

1.8. CASH MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS. On or prior to the Closing
Date, Borrowers will establish and will maintain until the Termination Date,
the cash management systems described on ANNEX C (the "CASH MANAGEMENT
SYSTEMS").

1.9. FEES. (a) Borrowers shall pay to GE Capital,
individually, the Fees specified in that certain fee letter of even date
herewith among Holdings, MCP and GE Capital (the "GE CAPITAL FEE LETTER"), at
the times specified for payment therein.

(b) As additional compensation for the Revolving Lenders,
Borrowers agree to pay to Agent, for the ratable benefit of such Lenders, in
arrears, on the first Business Day of each month prior to the Commitment
Termination Date and on the Commitment Termination Date, a fee for Borrowers'
non-use of available funds in an amount equal to 0.50% percent per annum
(calculated on the basis of a 360 day year for actual days elapsed) of the
difference between (x) the Maximum Amount (as it may be reduced from time to
time) and (y) the average for the period of the daily closing balances of the
aggregate Revolving Loan and the Swing Line Loan outstanding during the
period for which such fee is due.

1.10. RECEIPT OF PAYMENTS. Borrowers shall make each payment
under this Agreement not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the day when
due in immediately available funds in Dollars to the Collection Account. For
purposes of computing interest and Fees and determining Borrowing
Availability or Net Borrowing Availability as of any date, all payments shall
be deemed received on the day of receipt of immediately available funds
therefor in the Collection Account prior to 2:00 p.m. New York time.
Payments received after 2:00 p.m. New York time on any Business Day shall be
deemed to have been received on the following Business Day.

1.11. APPLICATION AND ALLOCATION OF PAYMENTS. (a) So long
as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (i)
payments consisting of proceeds of Accounts received in the ordinary course
of business shall be applied to the Swing Line Loan and the Revolving Loan;
(ii) payments matching specific scheduled payments then due shall be applied
to those scheduled payments; (iii) voluntary prepayments shall be applied as
determined by Borrower Representative, subject to the provisions of SECTION
1.3(a); and (iv) mandatory prepayments shall be applied as set forth in
SECTIONS 1.3(c) AND 1.3(d). All payments and prepayments applied to a
particular Loan shall be applied ratably to the portion thereof held by each
Lender as determined by its Pro Rata Share. As to each other payment, and as
to all payments made when a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing or following the Commitment Termination Date, each Borrower
hereby irrevocably waives the right to direct the application of any and all
payments received from or on behalf of such Borrower, and each Borrower
hereby irrevocably agrees that Agent shall have the continuing exclusive
right to apply any and all such payments against the Obligations of Borrowers
as Agent may deem advisable notwithstanding any previous entry by Agent in
the Loan Account or any other books and records. In the absence of a specific
determination by Agent with respect thereto, payments shall be applied to
amounts then due and payable in the following order: (1) to Fees and Agent's
expenses reimbursable hereunder; (2) to interest on the Swing Line Loan; (3)
to principal payments on the Swing Line Loan; (4) to interest on the other
Loans, ratably in proportion to the interest accrued as to each Loan; (5) to
principal payments on the other Loans and to provide cash collateral for
Letter of Credit Obligations in the manner described in ANNEX B, ratably to
the aggregate, combined principal balance of the other Loans and outstanding
Letter of Credit Obligations; and (6) to all other Obligations including
expenses of Lenders to the extent reimbursable under SECTION 11.3.

(b) Agent is authorized to, and at its sole election may,
charge to the Revolving Loan balance on behalf of each Borrower and cause to
be paid all Fees, expenses, Charges, costs (including insurance premiums in
accordance with SECTION 5.4(a)) and interest and principal, other than
principal of the Revolving Loan, owing by Borrowers under this Agreement or
any of the other Loan Documents if and to the extent Borrowers fail to
promptly pay any such amounts as and when due, even if such charges would
cause the balance of the aggregate Revolving Loan and the Swing Line Loan to
exceed Borrowing Availability or would cause the balance of the Revolving
Loan and the Swing Loan of any Borrower to exceed such Borrower's separate
Revolving Borrowing Base. At Agent's option and to the extent permitted by
law, any charges so made shall constitute part of the Revolving Loan
hereunder.

1.12. LOAN ACCOUNT AND ACCOUNTING. Agent shall maintain a
loan account (the "LOAN ACCOUNT") on its books to record: all Advances and
the Term Loan, all payments made by Borrowers, and all other debits and
credits as provided in this Agreement with respect to the Loans or any other
Obligations. All entries in the Loan Account shall be made in accordance with
Agent's customary accounting practices as in effect from time to time. The
balance in the Loan Account, as recorded on Agent's most recent printout or
other written statement, shall, absent manifest error, be presumptive
evidence of the amounts due and owing to Agent and Lenders by each Borrower;
PROVIDED that any failure to so record or any error in so recording shall not
limit or otherwise affect any Borrower's duty to pay the Obligations. Agent
shall render to Borrower Representative a monthly accounting of transactions
with respect to the Loans setting forth the balance of the Loan Account as to
each Borrower. Unless Borrower Representative notifies Agent in writing of
any objection to any such accounting (specifically describing the basis for
such objection), within forty-five (45) days after the date thereof, each and
every such accounting shall (absent manifest error) be deemed final, binding
and conclusive upon Borrowers in all respects as to all matters reflected
therein. Only those items expressly objected to in such notice shall be
deemed to be disputed by Borrowers. Notwithstanding any provision herein
contained to the contrary, any Lender may elect (which election may be
revoked) to dispense with the issuance of Notes to that Lender and may rely
on the Loan Account as evidence of the amount of Obligations from time to
time owing to it.

1.13. INDEMNITY. (a) Each Credit Party that is a signatory
hereto shall jointly and severally indemnify and hold harmless each of Agent,
Lenders and their respective Affiliates, and each such Person's respective
officers, directors, employees, attorneys, agents and representatives (each,
an "INDEMNIFIED PERSON"), from and against any and all suits, actions,
proceedings, claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including
reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements and other costs of investigation
or defense, including those incurred upon any appeal) which may be instituted
or asserted against or incurred by any such Indemnified Person as the result
of credit having been extended, suspended or terminated under this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents and the administration of such credit,

and in connection with or arising out of the transactions contemplated
hereunder and thereunder and any actions or failures to act in connection
therewith, including any and all Environmental Liabilities and legal costs
and expenses arising out of or incurred in connection with disputes between
or among ANY PARTIES to any of the Loan Documents (collectively, "INDEMNIFIED
LIABILITIES"); PROVIDED, that no such Credit Party shall be liable for any
indemnification to an Indemnified Person to the extent that any such suit,
action, proceeding, claim, damage, loss, liability or expense results from
that Indemnified Person's gross negligence or willful misconduct. NO
INDEMNIFIED PERSON SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE OR LIABLE TO ANY OTHER PARTY TO ANY
LOAN DOCUMENT, ANY SUCCESSOR, ASSIGNEE OR THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARY OF SUCH
PERSON OR ANY OTHER PERSON ASSERTING CLAIMS DERIVATIVELY THROUGH SUCH PARTY,
FOR INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES WHICH MAY BE
ALLEGED AS A RESULT OF CREDIT HAVING BEEN EXTENDED, SUSPENDED OR TERMINATED
UNDER ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR AS A RESULT OF ANY OTHER TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED
HEREUNDER OR THEREUNDER.

(b To induce Lenders to provide the LIBOR Rate option on
the terms provided herein, if (i) any LIBOR Loans are repaid in whole or in
part prior to the last day of any applicable LIBOR Period (whether that
repayment is made pursuant to any provision of this Agreement or any other
Loan Document or is the result of acceleration, by operation of law or
otherwise); (ii) any Borrower shall default in payment when due of the
principal amount of any LIBOR Loan; (iii) any Borrower shall default in
making any borrowing of, conversion into or continuation of LIBOR Loans after
Borrower Representative has given notice requesting the same in accordance
herewith; or (iv) any Borrower shall fail to make any prepayment of a LIBOR
Loan after Borrower Representative has given a notice thereof in accordance
herewith, Borrowers shall jointly and severally indemnify and hold harmless
each Lender from and against all losses, costs and expenses resulting from or
arising from any of the foregoing. Such indemnification shall include any
loss or expense arising from the reemployment of funds obtained by it or from
fees payable to terminate deposits from which such funds were obtained. 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 Loan
through the purchase of a deposit bearing interest at the LIBOR Rate in an
amount equal to the amount of that LIBOR Loan and having a maturity
comparable to the relevant LIBOR Period; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that each Lender
may fund each of its LIBOR Loans 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 Notes and all other amounts payable
hereunder. As promptly as practicable under the circumstances, each Lender
shall provide Borrower Representative with its written calculation of all
amounts payable pursuant to this SECTION 1.13(b), and such calculation shall
be binding on the parties hereto unless Borrower Representative shall object
in writing within ten (10) Business Days of receipt thereof, specifying the
basis for such objection in detail.

1.14. ACCESS. Each Credit Party which is a party hereto
shall, during normal business hours, from time to time upon three (3)
Business Days' prior notice as frequently as Agent determines to be
appropriate: (a) provide Agent and any of its officers, employees and agents
access to its properties, facilities, advisors and employees (including
officers) of each Credit Party and to the Collateral, (b) permit Agent, and
any of its officers, employees and agents, to inspect, audit and make
extracts from any Credit Party's books and records, and (c) permit Agent, and
its officers, employees and agents, to inspect, review, evaluate and make
test verifications and counts of the Accounts, Inventory and other Collateral
of any Credit Party. If a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing or if access is necessary to preserve or protect the
Collateral as determined by Agent, each such Credit Party shall provide such
access to Agent and to each Lender at all times and without advance notice.
Furthermore, so long as any Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, Borrowers shall provide Agent and each Lender with reasonable
access to their suppliers and customers. Each Credit Party shall make
available to Agent and its counsel, as quickly as is possible under the
circumstances, originals or copies of all books and records which Agent may
request. Each Credit Party shall deliver any document or instrument necessary
for Agent, as it may from time to time request, to obtain records from any
service bureau or other Person which maintains records for such Credit Party,
and shall maintain duplicate records or supporting documentation on media,
including computer tapes and discs owned by such Credit Party. Agent will
give Lenders at least ten (10) days' prior written notice of regularly
scheduled audits. Representatives of other Lenders may accompany Agent's
representatives on regularly scheduled audits at no charge to Borrowers.

1.15. TAXES. (a) Any and all payments by each Borrower
hereunder (including any payments made pursuant to SECTION 12) or under the
Notes shall be made, in accordance with this SECTION 1.15, free and clear of
and without deduction for any and all present or future Taxes. If any
Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of
any sum payable hereunder (including any sum payable pursuant to SECTION 12)
or under the Notes, (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 1.15)
Agent or Lenders, as applicable, receive an amount equal to the sum they
would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Borrower
shall make such deductions, and (iii) such Borrower shall pay the full amount
deducted to the relevant taxing or other authority in accordance with
applicable law. Within thirty (30) days after the date of any payment of
Taxes, Borrower Representative shall furnish to Agent the original or a
certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof.

(b Each Credit Party that is a signatory hereto shall
jointly and severally indemnify and, within ten (10) Business Days' of demand
therefor, pay Agent and each Lender for the full amount of Taxes (including
any Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this SECTION
1.15) paid by Agent or such Lender, as appropriate, and any liability
(including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with
respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally asserted.

(c Each Lender organized under the laws of a jurisdiction
outside the United States (a "FOREIGN LENDER") as to which payments to be
made under this Agreement or under the Notes are exempt from United States
withholding tax under an applicable statute or tax treaty shall provide to
Borrower Representative and Agent a properly completed and executed IRS Form
4224 or Form 1001 or other applicable form, certificate or document
prescribed by the IRS or the United States certifying as to such Foreign
Lender's entitlement to such exemption (a "CERTIFICATE OF EXEMPTION"). Any
foreign Person that seeks to become a Lender under this Agreement shall
provide a Certificate of Exemption to Borrower Representative and Agent prior
to becoming a Lender hereunder. No foreign Person may become a Lender
hereunder if such Person is unable to deliver a Certificate of Exemption.

1.16. CAPITAL ADEQUACY; INCREASED COSTS; ILLEGALITY;
REPLACEMENT OF LENDER IN RESPECT TO INCREASED COSTS. (a) If any Lender
shall have determined that any law, treaty, governmental (or
quasi-governmental) rule, regulation, guideline or order regarding capital
adequacy, reserve requirements or similar requirements or compliance by any
Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy, reserve
requirements or similar requirements (whether or not having the force of
law), in each case, adopted after the Closing Date, 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 Lender and thereby reducing the rate of return on such Lender's capital
as a consequence of its obligations hereunder, then Borrowers shall from time
to time upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to Agent) pay
to Agent, for the account of such Lender, additional amounts sufficient to
compensate such Lender for such reduction. A certificate as to the amount of
that reduction and showing the basis of the computation thereof submitted by
such Lender to Borrower Representative and to Agent shall, absent manifest
error, be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes.

(b If, due to either (i) the introduction of or any change
in any law or regulation (or any change in the interpretation thereof) or
(ii) the compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or
other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law), in
each case adopted after the Closing Date, there shall be any increase in the
cost to any Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining any
Loan, then Borrowers shall from time to time, upon demand by such Lender
(with a copy of such demand to Agent), pay to Agent for the account of such
Lender additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender for such
increased cost. A certificate as to the amount of such increased cost,
submitted to Borrower Representative and to Agent by such Lender, shall be
conclusive and binding on Borrowers for all purposes, absent manifest error.
Each Lender agrees that, as promptly as practicable after it becomes aware of
any circumstances referred to above which would result in any such increased
cost, the affected Lender shall, to the extent not inconsistent with such
Lender's internal policies of general application, use reasonable commercial
efforts to minimize costs and expenses incurred by it and payable to it by
Borrowers pursuant to this SECTION 1.16(b).

(c 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 Loan, then, unless that Lender is able to make or to continue to fund
or to maintain such LIBOR Loan at another branch or office of that Lender
without, in that Lender's opinion, adversely affecting it or its Loans or the
income obtained therefrom, on notice thereof and demand therefor by such
Lender to Borrower Representative through Agent, (i) the obligation of such
Lender to agree to make or to make or to continue to fund or maintain LIBOR
Loans shall terminate and (ii) each Borrower shall forthwith prepay in full
all outstanding LIBOR Loans owing by such Borrower to such Lender, together
with interest accrued thereon, UNLESS Borrower Representative on behalf of
such Borrower, within five (5) Business Days after the delivery of such
notice and demand, converts all such Loans into a Loan bearing interest based
on the Index Rate.

(d Within fifteen (15) days after receipt by Borrower
Representative of written notice and demand from any Lender (an "AFFECTED
LENDER") for payment of additional amounts or increased costs as provided in
SECTION 1.15(a), 1.16(a) or 1.16(b), Borrower Representative may, at its
option, notify Agent and such Affected Lender of its intention to replace the
Affected Lender. So long as no Default or Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, Borrower Representative, with the consent of
Agent, may obtain, at Borrowers' expense, a replacement Lender ("REPLACEMENT
LENDER") for the Affected Lender, which Replacement Lender must be
satisfactory to Agent. If Borrowers obtain a Replacement Lender within
ninety (90) days following notice of their intention to do so, the Affected
Lender must sell and assign its Loans and Commitments to such Replacement
Lender for an amount equal to the principal balance of all Loans held by the
Affected Lender and all accrued interest and Fees with respect thereto
through the date of such sale, PROVIDED that Borrowers shall have reimbursed
such Affected Lender for the additional amounts or increased costs that it is
entitled to receive under this Agreement through the date of such sale and
assignment.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrowers shall not have the
right to obtain a Replacement Lender if the Affected Lender rescinds its
demand for increased costs or additional amounts within fifteen (15) days
following its receipt of Borrowers' notice of intention to replace such
Affected Lender. Furthermore, if Borrowers give a notice of intention to
replace and do not so replace such Affected Lender within ninety (90) days
thereafter, Borrowers' rights under this SECTION 1.16(d) shall terminate and
Borrowers shall promptly pay all increased costs or additional amounts
demanded by such Affected Lender pursuant to SECTIONS 1.15(a), 1.16(a) and
1.16(b).

(e If any Lender shall fail to notify Borrower
Representative of any event occurring after the date of this Agreement
entitling such Lender to compensation under this Section within 180 days
after the officer of such Lender responsible for the business relationship of
such Lender with Borrowers obtains actual knowledge thereof, such Lender

shall, with respect to compensation payable pursuant to this Section in
respect of any costs resulting from such event, only be entitled to payment
under this Section for costs incurred from and after the date 180 days prior
to the date that such Lender does give such notice.

1.17. SINGLE LOAN. All Loans to each Borrower and all of the
other Obligations of each Borrower arising under this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents shall constitute one general obligation of that Borrower
secured, until the Termination Date, by all of its Collateral.

2. CONDITIONS PRECEDENT

2.2. FURTHER CONDITIONS TO EACH LOAN. Except as otherwise
expressly provided herein, no Lender shall be obligated to fund any Loan,
convert or continue any Loan as a LIBOR Loan or incur any Letter of Credit
Obligation, if, as of the date thereof:

(a Any representation or warranty by any Credit Party
contained herein or in any of the other Loan Documents shall be untrue or
incorrect as of such date, except to the extent that such representation or
warranty expressly relates to an earlier date and except for changes therein
expressly permitted or expressly contemplated by this Agreement; or

(b Any event or circumstance having a Material Adverse
Effect with respect to the Credit Parties shall have occurred since the date
hereof as reasonably determined by the Requisite Revolving Lenders; or

(c (i) Any Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing or would result after giving effect to any Loan (or the incurrence
of any Letter of Credit Obligations), or (ii) a Default shall have occurred
and be continuing or would result after giving effect to any Loan, and Agent
or Requisite Revolving Lenders shall have determined not to make any Loan or
incur any Letter of Credit Obligation so long as that Default is continuing;
or

(d After giving effect to any Advance (or the incurrence
of any Letter of Credit Obligations), (i) the outstanding principal amount of
the aggregate Revolving Loan would exceed the lesser of the Aggregate
Revolving Borrowing Base and the Maximum Amount, LESS, in each case, the then
outstanding principal amount of the Swing Line Loan, or (ii) the outstanding
principal amount of the Revolving Loan of the applicable Borrower would

that Borrower.

The request and acceptance by any Borrower of the proceeds of any Loan, the
incurrence of any Letter of Credit Obligations or the conversion or
continuation of any Loan into, or as, a LIBOR Loan, as the case may be, shall
be deemed to constitute, as of the date of such request or acceptance, (i) a
representation and warranty by Borrowers that the conditions in this SECTION
2.2 have been satisfied and (ii) a reaffirmation by Borrowers of the
cross-guaranty provisions set forth in SECTION 12 and of the granting and
continuance of Agent's Liens, on behalf of itself and Lenders, pursuant to
the Collateral Documents.

2.3. ADDITIONAL BORROWERS. As of the Closing Date,
notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, MCP is the only
Borrower and no other Borrower shall be permitted hereunder without the
consent of each Lender (which consent shall be in each such Lender's sole
discretion). Without limiting the foregoing, the parties acknowledge and
agree that prior to any additional Person joining hereto as a Borrower, the
Loan

Documents would be modified in a manner mutually acceptable to the Lenders
and the Credit Parties.

3. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

To induce Lenders to make the Loans and to incur Letter of
Credit Obligations, the Credit Parties executing this Agreement, jointly and
severally, make the following representations and warranties to Agent and
each Lender with respect to all Credit Parties, each and all of which shall
survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement.

3.1. CORPORATE OR LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY EXISTENCE;
COMPLIANCE WITH LAW. Each Credit Party (a) is a corporation or limited
liability company, as the case may be, duly organized, validly existing and
in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization; (b) 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 requires such qualification, except where the failure to be so
qualified would not result in exposure to losses, damages or liabilities in
excess of $100,000; (c) has the requisite organizational 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 as now, heretofore and proposed to be conducted; (d)
subject to specific representations regarding Environmental Laws, 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

3.4. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND PROJECTIONS. Except for the
Projections, all Financial Statements concerning Holdings and its
Subsidiaries which are referenced below have been prepared in accordance with
GAAP consistently applied throughout the periods covered (except as disclosed
therein and except, with respect to unaudited Financial Statements, for the
absence of footnotes and normal year-end audit adjustments) and present
fairly in all material respects the financial position of the Persons covered
thereby as at the dates thereof and the results of their operations and cash
flows for the periods then ended.

(a The following Financial Statements attached hereto as
DISCLOSURE SCHEDULE (3.4(A)) have been delivered on the date hereof:

The audited consolidated balance sheet at May 31, 1998
and the related statements of income and cash flows of Worthington for the
twelve month period then ended, certified by Ernst & Young LLP, and the
unaudited consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 1998 and the related
statements of income and cash flows of Worthington for the seven month period
then ended, prepared by Ernst & Young LLP, and such December 31, 1998
Financial Statements support the Projections for the Fiscal Year 1999
previously delivered to Agent.

(b PRO FORMA. The Pro Forma delivered on the date hereof
and attached hereto as DISCLOSURE SCHEDULE (3.4(B)) was prepared by Holdings
giving PRO FORMA effect to the Related Transactions, was based on the
unaudited consolidated balance sheet of Worthington dated December 31, 1998,
and was prepared on a basis consistent with such unaudited balance sheet,
with only such adjustments thereto as would be required in accordance with
GAAP; PROVIDED, that the income statement relating to the Pro Forma only
reflects sales and EBITDA results of Holdings and its Subsidiaries after
giving PRO FORMA effect to the Related Transactions;

(c PROJECTIONS. The Projections delivered on the date
hereof and attached hereto as DISCLOSURE SCHEDULE (3.4(C)) have been prepared
by Holdings and MCP in light of the past operations of Worthington's
business, and reflect projections for the five year period beginning on
January 1, 1999 on a month by month basis for the first year and on a year by
year basis thereafter. The Projections are based upon estimates and
assumptions stated therein, all of which Holdings and MCP believe as of the
Closing Date to be reasonable and fair in light of current conditions and
current facts known to Holdings and MCP and, as of the Closing Date, reflect
Holdings' and MCP's good faith and reasonable estimates of the future
financial performance of Holdings and its Subsidiaries and of the other
information projected therein for the period set forth therein. The foregoing
representations (and other references to the existing Projections herein) are
qualified by the fact that the Projections reflect an earlier proposed
financing structure for the Worthington Acquisition and not the financing
structure contemplated hereby but this qualification does not affect the
sales and EBITDA information contained in the Projections.

3.5. MATERIAL ADVERSE EFFECT. Between December 31, 1998 and
the Closing Date, (a) neither Worthington nor any Credit Party has incurred
any obligations, contingent or non-contingent liabilities, liabilities for

are not reflected in the Pro Forma and which, alone or in the aggregate,
could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (b) no
contract, lease or other agreement or instrument has been entered into by
Worthington or any Credit Party or has become binding upon Worthington's or
any Credit Party's assets and no law or regulation applicable to Worthington
or any Credit Party has been adopted which has had or could reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and (c) neither Worthington nor
any Credit Party is in default and to the best of Borrowers' knowledge no
third party is in default under any material contract, lease or other
agreement or instrument, which alone or in the aggregate could reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Except as set forth on
DISCLOSURE SCHEDULE (3.5), between December 31, 1998 and the Closing Date no
event has occurred, which alone or together with other events, could
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

of any individual.

3.8. VENTURES, SUBSIDIARIES AND AFFILIATES; OUTSTANDING
STOCK AND INDEBTEDNESS. Except as set forth in DISCLOSURE SCHEDULE (3.8), no
Credit Party has any Subsidiaries or is engaged in any joint venture or

3.9. GOVERNMENT REGULATION. No Credit Party is 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 of 1940 as amended. No Credit Party is
subject to regulation under the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935,
the Federal Power Act, or any other federal or state statute that restricts
or limits its ability to incur Indebtedness or to perform its obligations
hereunder. The making of the Loans by Lenders to Borrowers, the incurrence of
the Letter of Credit Obligations on behalf of Borrowers, the application of
the proceeds thereof and repayment thereof and the consummation of the
Related Transactions will not violate any provision of any such statute or
any rule, regulation or order issued by the Securities and Exchange
Commission.

3.10. MARGIN REGULATIONS. No Credit Party is engaged, nor
will it engage, principally or as one of its important activities, 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"). No Credit Party owns
any Margin Stock, and none of the proceeds of the Loans or other extensions
of credit under this Agreement will be used, directly or indirectly, for the
purpose of purchasing or carrying any Margin Stock, for the purpose of
reducing or retiring any Indebtedness which was originally incurred to
purchase or carry any Margin Stock or for any other purpose which might cause
any of the Loans or other extensions of credit under this Agreement to be
considered a "purpose credit" within the meaning of Regulation T, U or X of
the Federal Reserve Board. No Credit Party will take or permit to be taken
any action which might cause any Loan Document to violate any regulation of
the Federal Reserve Board.

3.11. TAXES. All tax returns, reports and statements,
including information returns, required by any Governmental Authority to be
filed by any Credit Party 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 5.2(b). Proper and accurate amounts have been withheld by each Credit
Party from its respective employees for all periods in full and complete
compliance with all applicable federal, state, local and foreign law and such
withholdings have been timely paid to the respective Governmental
Authorities. DISCLOSURE SCHEDULE (3.11) sets forth as of the Closing Date
those taxable years for which any Credit Party's tax returns are currently
being audited by the IRS or any other applicable Governmental Authority and
any assessments or threatened assessments in connection with such audit, or
otherwise currently outstanding. Except as described on DISCLOSURE SCHEDULE
(3.11), no Credit Party 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. None of the Credit Parties are liable for any Charges: (a) under
any agreement (including any tax sharing agreements other than the Tax
Sharing Agreement) or (b) to each Credit Party's knowledge, as a transferee.
As of the Closing Date, no Credit Party has agreed or been requested to make
any adjustment under IRC Section 481(a), by reason of a change in accounting
method or otherwise, which would have a Material Adverse Effect.

3.12. ERISA. (a) DISCLOSURE SCHEDULE (3.12) lists and
separately identifies all Title IV Plans, Multiemployer Plans, ESOPs and
Retiree Welfare Plans. Copies of all such listed Plans, together with a copy
of the latest form 5500 for each such Plan, have been delivered to Agent.
Except with respect to Multiemployer Plans, each Qualified Plan has been
determined by the IRS to qualify under Section 401 of the IRC, and the trusts
created thereunder have been determined to be exempt from tax under the
provisions of Section 501 of the IRC, and nothing has occurred which would
cause the loss of such qualification or tax-exempt status. Each Plan is in
compliance with the applicable provisions of ERISA and the IRC, including the
filing of reports required under the IRC or ERISA. No Credit Party or ERISA
Affiliate has failed to make any contribution or pay any amount due as
required by either Section 412 of the IRC or Section 302 of ERISA or the
terms of any such Plan. No Credit Party or ERISA Affiliate has engaged in a
prohibited transaction, as defined in Section 4975 of the IRC, in connection
with any Plan, which would subject any Credit Party to a material tax on
prohibited transactions imposed by Section 4975 of the IRC.

(b Except as set forth in DISCLOSURE SCHEDULE (3.12): (i)
no Title IV Plan has any Unfunded Pension Liability; (ii) no ERISA Event or

expects to incur any liability as a result of a complete or partial
withdrawal from a Multiemployer Plan; (v) within the last five years no Title
IV Plan with Unfunded Pension Liabilities has been transferred outside of the

any Credit Party or ERISA

Affiliate; and (vi) no liability under any Title IV Plan has been satisfied
with the purchase of a contract from an insurance company that is not rated
AAA by the Standard & Poor's Corporation or the equivalent by another
nationally recognized rating agency.

3.13. NO LITIGATION. No action, claim, lawsuit, demand,
investigation or proceeding is now pending or, to the knowledge of any Credit
Party, threatened against any Credit Party or Worthington, before any
Governmental Authority or before any arbitrator or panel of arbitrators
(collectively, "Litigation") which challenges Worthington's or any Credit
Party's right or power to enter into or perform any of its obligations under
the Loan Documents to which it is a party, or the validity or enforceability
of any Loan Document or any action taken thereunder, or (b) which has a
reasonable risk of being determined adversely to any Credit Party and which,
if so determined, could have a Material Adverse Effect. Except as set forth
on DISCLOSURE SCHEDULE (3.13), as of the Closing Date there is no Litigation
pending or, to the knowledge of any Credit Party, threatened which seeks
damages in excess of $100,000 or injunctive relief or alleges criminal

The Credit Parties shall, at their sole cost and expense, maintain the
policies of insurance described on DISCLOSURE SCHEDULE (3.18) as in effect on
the date hereof or otherwise in form and amounts and with insurers acceptable
to Agent. If any Credit Party at any time or times hereafter shall fail to
obtain or maintain any of the policies of insurance required above or to pay
all premiums relating thereto, Agent may at any time or times thereafter
obtain and maintain such policies of insurance and pay such premiums and take
any other action with respect thereto which Agent deems advisable. Agent
shall have no obligation to obtain insurance for any Credit Party or pay any
premiums therefor. By doing so, Agent shall not be deemed to have waived any
Default or Event of Default arising from any Credit Party's failure to
maintain such insurance or pay any premiums therefor. All sums so disbursed,
including attorneys' fees, court costs and other charges related thereto,
shall be payable on demand by Borrowers to Agent and shall be additional
Obligations hereunder secured by the Collateral.

(b) Agent reserves the right at any time upon any change in
any Credit Party's risk profile (including any change in the product mix
maintained by any Credit Party or any laws affecting the potential liability
of such Credit Party) to require additional forms and limits of insurance to,
in Agent's opinion, adequately protect both Agent's and Lender's interests in
all or any portion of the Collateral and to ensure that each Credit Party is
protected by insurance in amounts and with coverage customary for its
industry. If Agent requires any such additional forms or limits of insurance,
the applicable Credit Party shall have thirty (30) days to provide to Agent
satisfactory evidence that it has obtained such additional forms and/or
limits. If requested by Agent, each Credit Party shall deliver to Agent from
time to time a report of a reputable insurance broker, reasonably
satisfactory to Agent, with respect to its insurance policies.

(c) Each Borrower shall deliver to Agent, in form and
substance satisfactory to Agent, endorsements to (i) all "All Risk" and
business interruption insurance naming Agent, on behalf of itself and
Lenders, as loss payee, and (ii) all general liability and other liability
policies naming Agent, on behalf of itself and Lenders, as additional
insured. Each Borrower irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints Agent
(and all officers, employees or agents designated by Agent), so long as any
Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or the
anticipated insurance proceeds exceed $500,000, as such Borrower's true and
lawful agent and attorney-in-fact for the purpose of making, settling and
adjusting claims under such "All Risk" policies of insurance, endorsing the
name of such Borrower on any check or other item of payment for the proceeds
of such "All Risk" policies of insurance and for making all determinations
and decisions with respect to such "All Risk" policies of insurance. Agent
shall have no duty to exercise any rights or powers granted to it pursuant to

the foregoing power-of-attorney. Borrower Representative shall promptly
notify Agent of any loss, damage, or destruction to the Collateral in the
amount of $250,000 or more, whether or not covered by insurance. After
deducting from such proceeds the expenses, if any, incurred by Agent in the
collection or handling thereof, Agent may, at its option, apply such proceeds
to the reduction of the Obligations in accordance with SECTION 1.3(d);
provided that in the case of insurance proceeds pertaining to any Credit
Party that is not a Borrower, such insurance proceeds shall be applied
ratably to all of the Loans owing by each Borrower, or permit or require the
applicable Borrower to use such money, or any part thereof, to replace,
repair, restore or rebuild the Collateral in a diligent and expeditious
manner with materials and workmanship of substantially the same quality as
existed before the loss, damage or destruction. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if the casualty giving rise to such insurance proceeds would not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and such insurance
proceeds do not exceed $500,000 in the aggregate, Agent shall permit the
applicable Borrower to replace, restore, repair or rebuild the property;
PROVIDED that if such Borrower shall not have completed or entered into
binding agreements to complete such replacement, restoration, repair or
rebuilding within 270 days of such casualty, Agent may apply such insurance
proceeds to the Obligations in accordance with SECTION 1.3(d); provided
further that in the case of insurance proceeds pertaining to any Credit Party
that is not a Borrower, such insurance proceeds shall be applied ratably to
all of the Loans owing by each Borrower. All insurance proceeds which are to
be made available to any Borrower to replace, repair, restore or rebuild the
Collateral shall be applied by Agent to reduce the outstanding principal
balance of the Revolving Loan of such Borrower (which application shall not
result in a permanent reduction of the Revolving Loan Commitment) and upon
such application, Agent shall establish a Reserve against the separate
Revolving Borrowing Base of the affected Borrower in an amount equal to the
amount of such proceeds so applied. All insurance proceeds made available to
any Credit Party that is not a Borrower to replace, repair, restore or
rebuild Collateral shall be deposited in a cash collateral account.
Thereafter, such funds shall be made available to that Borrower to provide
funds to replace, repair, restore or rebuild the Collateral as follows: (i)
Borrower Representative shall request a Revolving Credit Advance or a release
from the cash collateral account be made to such Borrower in the amount
requested to be released; (ii) so long as the conditions set forth in SECTION
2.2 have been met, Revolving Lenders shall make such Revolving Credit Advance
or Agent shall release funds from the cash collateral account; and (iii) in
the case of insurance proceeds applied against the Revolving Loan, the
Reserve established with respect to such insurance proceeds shall be reduced
by the amount of such Revolving Credit Advance. To the extent not used to
replace, repair, restore or rebuild the Collateral, such insurance proceeds
shall be applied in accordance with SECTION 1.3(d); provided that in the case
of insurance proceeds pertaining to any Credit Party that is not a Borrower,
such insurance proceeds shall be applied ratably to all of the Loans owing by
each Borrower.

5.5. COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS. Each Credit Party shall comply
with all federal, state, local and foreign laws (including, without
limitation, the ▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇▇ Anti-Trust Improvements Act of 1976) and
regulations applicable to it, including those relating to ERISA

and labor matters, and Environmental Laws and Environmental Permits, except
to the extent that the failure to comply, individually or in the aggregate,
could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

5.6. SUPPLEMENTAL DISCLOSURE. From time to time as may be
requested by Agent (which request will not be made more frequently than once
each year absent the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an Event of
Default), the Credit Parties shall supplement each Disclosure Schedule
hereto, or any representation herein or in any other Loan Document, with
respect to any matter hereafter arising which, if existing or occurring at
the date of this Agreement, would have been required to be set forth or
described in such Disclosure Schedule or as an exception to such
representation or which is necessary to correct any information in such
Disclosure Schedule or representation which has been rendered inaccurate
thereby (and, in the case of any supplements to any Disclosure Schedule, such
Disclosure Schedule shall be appropriately marked to show the changes made
therein); provided that (a) no such supplement to any such Disclosure
Schedule or representation shall be or be deemed a waiver of any Default or
Event of Default resulting from the matters disclosed therein, except as
consented to by Agent and Requisite Lenders in writing; and (b) no supplement
shall be required as to representations and warranties that relate solely to
the Closing Date.

5.7. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY. Each Credit Party will conduct
its business and affairs without any known infringement of or interference
with any Intellectual Property of any other Person in any material respect.

5.8. ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS. Each Credit Party shall and
shall cause each Person within its control to: (a) conduct its operations and
keep and maintain its Real Estate in compliance with all Environmental Laws
and Environmental Permits other than noncompliance which could not reasonably
be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; (b) implement any and all
investigation, remediation, removal and response actions which are
appropriate or necessary to maintain the value and marketability of the Real
Estate or to otherwise comply with Environmental Laws and Environmental
Permits pertaining to the presence, generation, treatment, storage, use,
disposal, transportation or Release of any Hazardous Material on, at, in,
under, above, to, from or about any of its Real Estate; (c) notify Agent
promptly after such Credit Party becomes aware of any violation of
Environmental Laws or Environmental Permits or any Release on, at, in, under,
above, to, from or about any Real Estate which is reasonably likely to result
in Environmental Liabilities in excess of $100,000; and (d) promptly forward
to Agent a copy of any order, notice, request for information or any
communication or report received by such Credit Party in connection with any
such violation or Release or any other matter relating to any Environmental
Laws or Environmental Permits that could reasonably be expected to result in
Environmental Liabilities in excess of $100,000, in each case whether or not
the Environmental Protection Agency or any Governmental Authority has taken
or threatened any action in connection with any such violation, Release or
other matter. If Agent at any time has a reasonable basis to believe that
there may be a violation of any

Environmental Laws or Environmental Permits by any Credit Party or any
Environmental Liability arising thereunder, or a Release of Hazardous
Materials on, at, in, under, above, to, from or about any of its Real Estate,
which, in each case, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect, then each Credit Party shall, upon Agnt's written request (i) cause
the performance of such environmental audits including subsurface sampling of
soil and groundwater, and preparation of such environmental reports, at
Borrowers' expense, as Agent may from time to time reasonably request, which
shall be conducted by reputable environmental consulting firms reasonably
acceptable to Agent and shall be in form and substance acceptable to Agent,
and (ii) permit Agent or its representatives to have access to all Real
Estate for the purpose of conducting such environmental audits and testing as
Agent deems appropriate, including subsurface sampling of soil and
groundwater. Borrowers shall reimburse Agent for the costs of such audits
and tests and the same will constitute a part of the Obligations secured
hereunder.

5.9. LANDLORDS' AGREEMENTS, MORTGAGEE AGREEMENTS AND BAILEE
LETTERS. Each Credit Party shall obtain a landlord's agreement, mortgagee
agreement or bailee letter, as applicable, from the lessor of each leased
property or mortgagee of owned property or with respect to any warehouse,
processor or converter facility or other location where Collateral is
located, which agreement or letter shall contain a waiver or subordination of
all Liens or claims that the landlord, mortgagee or bailee may assert against
the Inventory or Collateral at that location, and shall otherwise be
satisfactory in form and substance to Agent. With respect to such locations
or warehouse space leased or owned as of the Closing Date and thereafter, if
Agent has not received a landlord or mortgagee agreement or bailee letter as
of the Closing Date (or, if later, as of the date such location is acquired
or leased), any Borrower's Eligible Inventory at that location shall, in
Agent's discretion, be excluded from the Revolving Borrowing Base or be
subject to such Reserves as may be established by Agent in its reasonable
credit judgment. After the Closing Date, no real property or warehouse space
shall be leased or acquired by any Credit Party and no Inventory shall be
shipped to a processor or converter under arrangements established after the
Closing Date without the prior written consent of Agent (which consent, in
Agent's discretion, may be conditioned upon the exclusion from the Revolving
Borrowing Base of Eligible Inventory at that location or the establishment of
Reserves acceptable to Agent) or, unless and until a satisfactory landlord or
mortgagee agreement or bailee letter, as appropriate, shall first have been
obtained with respect to such location. Each Credit Party shall timely and
fully pay and perform its obligations under all leases and other agreements
with respect to each leased location or public warehouse where any Collateral
is or may be located.

5.10. YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE. On or prior to the Closing Date,
each Credit Party shall complete and deliver to Agent a Year 2000 Assessment,
and on prior to May 30, 1999, each Credit Party shall complete and deliver to
Agent a Year 2000 Corrective Plan. On or prior to June 30, 1999, each Credit
Party shall implement Year 2000 Corrective Actions. On or before July 31,
1999, each Credit Party shall complete Year 2000 Corrective Actions and Year
2000 Implementation Testing. On or before November 30, 1999, each Credit
Party

shall eliminate all Year 2000 Problems, except where the failure to correct
the same could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect,
individually or in the aggregate.

5.11. FURTHER ASSURANCES. Each Credit Party executing this
Agreement agrees that it shall and shall cause each other Credit Party to, at
such Credit Party's expense and upon request of Agent, duly execute and
deliver, or cause to be duly executed and delivered, to Agent such further
instruments and do and cause to be done such further acts as may be necessary
or proper in the reasonable opinion of Agent to carry out more effectively
the provisions and purposes of this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

6. NEGATIVE COVENANTS

settled by Borrowers does not exceed $100,000; (b) each Credit Party may
maintain its existing investments in its Subsidiaries as of the Closing Date;

amount thereof or changing the amortization thereof (other than to extend the

any Credit Party, Agent or any Lender, as reasonably determined by Agent,
than the terms of the Indebtedness being refinanced, amended or modified.

with any other Credit Party or any Affiliate thereof except in the ordinary
course of and pursuant to the reasonable requirements of such Credit Party's
business and upon fair and reasonable terms that are no less favorable to
such Credit Party than would be obtained in a comparable arm's length

result thereof MCP and Holdings shall be permitted to reimburse MIG for
out-of-pocket expenses and costs incurred by MIG on behalf of the Credit

repayment of the Loans or any of the other Obligations or could reasonably be
expected to have or result in a Material Adverse Effect, (b) make any change

the

issuance of any shares of Stock, warrants or other securities convertible
into Stock or any revision of the terms of its outstanding Stock, or (c)
amend its charter or bylaws, membership agreements, operating agreements or
other constituent documents in a manner which would adversely affect Agent or
Lenders or such Credit Party's duty or ability to repay the Obligations. No
Credit Party shall engage in any business other than the businesses currently
engaged in by it or businesses reasonably related thereto.

6.6. GUARANTEED INDEBTEDNESS. No Credit Party shall create,
incur, assume or permit to exist any Guaranteed Indebtedness except (a) by

become a party to any agreement, note, indenture or instrument, or take any
other action, which would prohibit the creation of a Lien on any of its
properties or other assets in favor of Agent, on behalf of itself and

Agent's written acknowledgment that any reasonable action requested by Agent
in connection therewith, including to continue the perfection of any Liens in
favor of Agent, on behalf of Lenders, in any Collateral, has been completed
or taken, and PROVIDED that any such new location shall be in the continental
United States. Without limiting the foregoing, no Credit Party shall change
its name, identity or corporate or limited liability company structure in any

except upon prior written notice to Agent and Lenders and after Agent's
written acknowledgment that any reasonable action requested by Agent in

6.18. LEASES. No Credit Party shall enter into any operating
lease for Equipment or Real Estate, if the aggregate of all such operating
lease payments payable in any year for Holdings and its Subsidiaries on a
consolidated basis would exceed $5,000,000.

6.19. CREDIT PARTIES OTHER THAN BORROWERS. None of the
Credit Parties other than Borrowers shall engage in any trade or business, or

Indebtedness or Guaranteed Indebtedness (other than the Obligations and the
Holdings Note); PROVIDED that the IRB Subsidiary shall be the holder of the
Lebanon IRBs.

impair the obligations, duties and liabilities of the Credit Parties or the
rights of Agent and Lenders relating to any unpaid portion of the Loans or
any other Obligations, due or not due, liquidated, contingent or unliquidated
or any transaction or event occurring prior to such termination, or any
transaction or event, the performance of which is required after the
Commitment Termination Date. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein
or in any other Loan Document, all undertakings, agreements, covenants,
warranties and representations of or binding upon the Credit Parties, and all
rights of Agent and each Lender, all as contained in the Loan Documents,
shall not terminate or expire, but rather shall survive any such termination
or cancellation and shall continue in full force and effect until the
Termination Date; provided however, that in all events the provisions of
SECTION 11, the payment obligations under SECTIONS 1.15 and 1.16, and the
indemnities contained in the Loan Documents shall survive the Termination
Date.

8. EVENTS OF DEFAULT: RIGHTS AND REMEDIES

8.2. REMEDIES. (a) If any Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing or if a Default shall have occurred and be
continuing and Agent or Requisite Revolving Lenders shall have determined not

that specific Default is continuing, Agent may (and at the written request of
the Requisite Revolving Lenders shall), without notice, suspend the Revolving
Loan facility with respect to further Advances and/or the incurrence of
further Letter of Credit Obligations whereupon any further Advances and
Letter of Credit Obligations shall be made or extended in Agent's sole
discretion (or in the sole discretion of the Requisite Revolving Lenders, if
such suspension occurred at their direction) so long as such Default or Event
of Default is continuing. If any Default or Event of Default shall have

Requisite Lenders shall), without notice except as otherwise expressly
provided herein, increase the rate of interest applicable to the Loans and
the Letter of Credit Fees to the Default Rate.

(b) If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be

all or any portion of any Loan to be forthwith due and payable, and require
that the Letter of Credit Obligations be cash collateralized as provided in
ANNEX B, all without presentment, demand, protest or further notice of any

Party; and (iii) exercise any rights and remedies provided to Agent under the
Loan Documents and/or at law or equity, including all remedies provided under

be immediately terminated and all of the

Obligations, including the aggregate Revolving Loan, shall become immediately
due and payable without declaration, notice or demand by any Person.

8.3. WAIVERS BY CREDIT PARTIES. Except as otherwise
provided for in this Agreement or by applicable law, each Credit Party waives

and notice of presentment, dishonor, notice of intent to accelerate, notice
of acceleration, protest, default, nonpayment, maturity, release, compromise,
settlement, extension or renewal of any or all commercial paper, accounts,

rights to notice and a hearing prior to Agent's taking possession or control
of, or to Agent's replevy, attachment or levy upon, the Collateral or any
bond or security which might be required by any court prior to allowing Agent
to exercise any of its remedies, and (c) the benefit of all valuation,

9. ASSIGNMENT AND PARTICIPATIONS; APPOINTMENT OF AGENT

9.1. ASSIGNMENT AND PARTICIPATIONS. (a) The Credit Parties
signatory hereto consent to any Lender's assignment of, and/or sale of
participations in, at any time or times, the Loan Documents, Loans, Letter of
Credit Obligations 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 Agent and (so long as no Default or
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) the Borrower Representative
(which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and the execution of an
assignment agreement (an "ASSIGNMENT AGREEMENT") substantially in the from
attached hereto as EXHIBIT 9.1(a) and otherwise in form and substance
satisfactory to, and acknowledged by, Agent; (ii) be conditioned on such
assignee Lender representing to the assigning Lender and Agent that it is
purchasing the applicable Loans to be assigned to it for its own account, for
investment purposes and not with a view to the distribution thereof; (iii) if
a partial assignment, be 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; and (iv)
include a payment to Agent of an assignment fee of $3,500. In the case of an
assignment by a Lender under this SECTION 9.1, 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. Each
Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that any assignment will give rise to
a direct obligation of Borrowers to the assignee and that the assignee shall
be considered to be a "Lender". In all instances, each Lender's liability to
make Loans 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
Agent or any Lender assigns or otherwise transfers all or any part of the
Obligations, Agent or any such

Lender shall so notify Borrowers and Borrowers shall, upon the request of
Agent or such Lender, execute new Notes in exchange for the Notes, if any,
being assigned. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this SECTION
9.1(a), any Lender may at any time pledge the Obligations held by it and such
Lender's rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to a
Federal Reserve Bank, and any Lender that is an investment fund may assign
the Obligations held by it and such Lender's rights under this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents to another investment fund managed by the same
investment advisor; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no such pledge to a Federal
Reserve Bank shall release such Lender from such Lender's obligations
hereunder or under any other Loan Document.

(b) Any participation by a Lender of all or any part of its
Commitments shall be made with the understanding that all amounts payable by
Borrowers 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 Loan in which such
holder participates, (ii) any extension of the scheduled amortization of the
principal amount of any Loan in which such holder participates or the final
maturity date thereof, and (iii) any release of all or substantially all of
the Collateral (other than in accordance with the terms of this Agreement,
the Collateral Documents or the other Loan Documents). Solely for purposes
of SECTIONS 1.13, 1.15, 1.16 and 9.8, each Borrower acknowledges and agrees
that a participation shall give rise to a direct obligation of Borrowers to
the participant and the participant shall be considered to be a "Lender".
Except as set forth in the preceding sentence no Borrower or Credit Party
shall have any obligation or duty to any participant. Neither 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.

(c) Except as expressly provided in this SECTION 9.1, no
Lender shall, as between Borrowers and that Lender, or 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 Loans, the Notes or other Obligations owed to such Lender.

(d) Each Credit Party executing this Agreement shall assist
any Lender permitted to sell assignments or participations under this SECTION
9.1 as reasonably required to enable the assigning or selling Lender to
effect any such assignment or participation, including the execution and
delivery of any and all agreements, notes and other documents and instruments
as shall be requested and, if requested by Agent in connection with the
primary syndication of the Commitments and/or the Loans, the preparation of
informational materials for, and the participation of management in meetings
with, potential assignees or participants. Each Credit Party executing this
Agreement shall certify the correctness, completeness and accuracy of all
descriptions of the Credit Parties and their affairs contained in any selling
materials provided by them and all other information provided by them and
included in such materials, except that any Projections delivered by
Borrowers shall only be certified by

Borrowers as having been prepared by Borrowers in compliance with the
representations contained in SECTION 3.4(c).

(e) A Lender may furnish any information concerning Credit
Parties in the possession of such Lender from time to time to assignees and
participants (including prospective assignees and participants). Each Lender
shall obtain from assignees or participants confidentiality covenants
substantially equivalent to those contained in SECTION 11.8.

(f) So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and
be continuing, no Lender shall assign or sell participations in any portion
of its Loans or Commitments to a potential Lender or participant, if, as of
the date of the proposed assignment or sale, the assignee Lender or
participant would be subject to capital adequacy or similar requirements
under SECTION 1.16(a), increased costs under SECTION 1.16(b), an inability to
fund LIBOR Loans under SECTION1.16(c), or withholding taxes in accordance
with SECTION 1.15(a).

9.2. APPOINTMENT OF AGENT. GE Capital is hereby appointed
to act on behalf of all Lenders as Agent under this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents. The provisions of this SECTION 9.2 are solely for the
benefit of Agent and Lenders and no Credit Party nor any other Person shall
have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions hereof.
In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents, Agent shall act solely as an agent of Lenders and does not
assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation toward or
relationship of agency or trust with or for any Credit Party or any other
Person. Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities except for those
expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The
duties of Agent shall be mechanical and administrative in nature and Agent
shall not have, or be deemed to have, by reason of this Agreement, any other
Loan Document or otherwise a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender.
Neither Agent nor any of its Affiliates nor any of their respective
officers, directors, employees, agents or representatives shall be liable to
any Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it hereunder or
under any other Loan Document, or in connection herewith or therewith, except
for damages caused by its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

If Agent shall request instructions from Requisite Lenders,
Requisite Revolving Lenders, Supermajority Revolving Lenders or all affected
Lenders with respect to any act or action (including failure to act) in
connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, then Agent shall
be entitled to refrain from such act or taking such action unless and until
Agent shall have received instructions from Requisite Lenders, Requisite
Revolving Lenders, Supermajority Revolving Lenders or all affected Lenders,
as the case may be, and Agent shall not incur liability to any Person by
reason of so refraining. Agent shall be fully justified in failing or
refusing to take any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document (a) if
such action would, in the opinion of Agent, be contrary to law or the terms
of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (b) if such action would, in
the opinion of Agent,

expose Agent to Environmental Liabilities or (c) if Agent shall not first be
indemnified to its satisfaction against any and all liability and expense
which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any
such action. Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have any right
of action whatsoever against Agent as a result of Agent acting or refraining
from acting hereunder or under any other Loan Document in accordance with the
instructions of Requisite Lenders, Requisite Revolving Lenders, Supermajority
Revolving Lenders or all affected Lenders, as applicable.

9.3. AGENT'S RELIANCE, ETC. Neither Agent nor any of its
Affiliates nor any of their respective directors, officers, agents or
employees shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it
or them under or in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents, except for damages caused by its or their own gross negligence or
willful misconduct. Without limitation of the generality of the foregoing,
Agent: (a) may treat the payee of any Note as the holder thereof until
Agent receives written notice of the assignment or transfer thereof signed by
such payee and in form satisfactory to Agent; (b) may consult with legal
counsel, independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and
shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith
by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts;
(c) makes no warranty or representation to any Lender and shall not be
responsible to any Lender for any statements, warranties or representations
made in or in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; (d)
shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or
observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement or
the other Loan Documents on the part of any Credit Party or to inspect the
Collateral (including the books and records) of any Credit Party; (e) shall
not be responsible to any Lender for the due execution, legality, validity,
enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or the
other Loan Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant
hereto or thereto; and (f) shall incur no liability under or in respect of
this Agreement or the other Loan Documents by acting upon any notice,
consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by
telecopy, telegram, cable or telex) believed by it to be genuine and signed
or sent by the proper party or parties.

9.4. GE CAPITAL AND AFFILIATES. With respect to its
Commitments hereunder, GE Capital shall have the same rights and powers under
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as any other Lender and may
exercise the same as though it were not Agent; and the term "Lender" or
"Lenders" shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include GE Capital in
its individual capacity. GE Capital and its Affiliates may lend money to,
invest in, and generally engage in any kind of business with, any Credit
Party, any of their Affiliates and any Person who may do business with or own
securities of any Credit Party or any such Affiliate, all as if GE Capital
were not Agent and without any duty to account therefor to Lenders. GE
Capital and its Affiliates may accept fees and other consideration from any
Credit Party for services in connection with this Agreement or otherwise
without having to account for the same to Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges
the potential conflict of interest

between GE Capital as a Lender holding disproportionate interests in the
Loans and GE Capital as Agent.

9.5. LENDER CREDIT DECISION. Each Lender acknowledges that
it has, independently and without reliance upon Agent or any other Lender and
based on the Financial Statements referred to in SECTION 3.4(a) and such
other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own
credit and financial analysis of the Credit Parties and its own decision to
enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will,
independently and without reliance upon 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. Each Lender acknowledges the potential conflict of
interest of each other Lender as a result of Lenders holding disproportionate
interests in the Loans, and expressly consents to, and waives any claim based
upon, such conflict of interest.

9.6. INDEMNIFICATION. Lenders agree to indemnify Agent (to
the extent not reimbursed by Credit Parties and without limiting the
obligations of Credit Parties 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 Agent in any way relating to or
arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any action taken
or omitted by 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 from Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct.
Without limiting the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse Agent
promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any out-of-pocket expenses
(including counsel fees) incurred by 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 Loan Document, to the extent that Agent is not
reimbursed for such expenses by Credit Parties.

9.7. SUCCESSOR AGENT. Agent may resign at any time by
giving not less than thirty (30) days' prior written notice thereof to
Lenders and Borrower Representative. Upon any such resignation, the
Requisite Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent. If no
successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Requisite Lenders and
shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the resigning
Agent's giving notice of resignation, then the resigning Agent may, on behalf
of Lenders, appoint a successor 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 if such commercial bank or financial institution is
organized under the laws of the United States of America or of any State
thereof and has a combined capital and surplus of at least $300,000,000. If
no successor Agent has been appointed pursuant to the foregoing, by

the 30th day after the date such notice of resignation was given by the
resigning Agent, such resignation shall become effective and the Requisite
Lenders shall thereafter perform all the duties of Agent hereunder until such
time, if any, as the Requisite Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided
above. Any successor Agent appointed by Requisite Lenders hereunder shall be
subject to the approval of Borrower Representative, such approval not to be
unreasonably withheld or delayed; PROVIDED that such approval shall not be
required if a Default or an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a
successor Agent, such successor Agent shall succeed to and become vested with
all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the resigning Agent. Upon
the earlier of the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a
successor Agent or the effective date of the resigning Agent's resignation,
the resigning Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under
this Agreement and the other Loan 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 9
shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by
it while it was Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

9.8. 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 Event of Default, each Lender and each holder of any Note is hereby
authorized at any time or from time to time, without notice to any Credit
Party 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 any Borrower or Guarantor (regardless
of whether such balances are then due to such Borrower or Guarantor) 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 any Borrower or Guarantor
against and on account of any of the Obligations which are not paid when due.
Any Lender or holder of any Note exercising a right to set off or otherwise
receiving any payment on account of the 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 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. Each Lender's
obligation under this SECTION 9.8 shall be in addition to and not limitation
of its obligations to purchase a participation in an amount equal to its Pro
Rata Share of the Swing Line Loans under SECTION 1.1. Each Credit Party that
is a Borrower or Guarantor 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 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 Loans made or
other 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 Loans and the other 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.

9.9. ADVANCES; PAYMENTS; NON-FUNDING LENDERS; INFORMATION;
ACTIONS IN CONCERT.

(a) ADVANCES; PAYMENTS. (i) Revolving Lenders shall
refund or participate in the Swing Line Loan in accordance with CLAUSES (iii)
and (iv) of SECTION 1.1(c). If the Swing Line Lender declines to make a
Swing Line Loan or if Swing Line Availability is zero, Agent shall notify
Revolving Lenders, promptly after receipt of a Notice of Revolving Credit
Advance and in any event prior to 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on the date such
Notice of Revolving Advance is received, by telecopy, telephone or other
similar form of transmission. Each Revolving Lender shall make the amount of
such Lender's Pro Rata Share of such Revolving Credit Advance available to
Agent in same day funds by wire transfer to Agent's account as set forth in
ANNEX H not later than 3:00 p.m. (New York time) on the requested funding
date, in the case of an Index Rate Loan and not later than 11:00 a.m. (New
York time) on the requested funding date in the case of a LIBOR Loan. After
receipt of such wire transfers (or, in the Agent's sole discretion, before
receipt of such wire transfers), subject to the terms hereof, Agent shall
make the requested Revolving Credit Advance to the Borrower designated by
Borrower Representative in the Notice of Revolving Credit Advance. All
payments by each Revolving Lender shall be made without setoff, counterclaim
or deduction of any kind.

(ii) On the second (2nd) Business Day of each
calendar week or more frequently as aggregate cumulative payments in excess
of $2,000,000 are received with respect to the Loans (other than the Swing
Line Loan) (each, a "SETTLEMENT DATE"), 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 Loan. Provided that such Lender has funded all payments or
Advances required to be made by it and has purchased all participations
required to be purchased by it under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents as of such Settlement Date, Agent will pay to each Lender such
Lender's Pro Rata Share of principal, interest and Fees paid by Borrowers
since the previous Settlement Date for the benefit of that Lender on the
Loans held by it. To the extent that any Lender (a "NON-FUNDING LENDER") has
failed to fund all such payments and Advances or failed to fund the purchase
of all such participations, Agent shall be entitled to set off the funding
short-fall against that Non-Funding Lender's Pro Rata Share of all payments
received from Borrowers. Such payments shall be made by wire transfer to
such Lender's account (as specified by such Lender in ANNEX H or the
applicable Assignment Agreement) not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on
the next Business Day following each Settlement Date.

(b) AVAILABILITY OF LENDER'S PRO RATA SHARE. Agent may
assume that each Revolving Lender will make its Pro Rata Share of each
Revolving Credit Advance available to

Agent on each funding date. If such Pro Rata Share is not, in fact, paid to
Agent by such Revolving Lender when due, Agent will be entitled to recover
such amount on demand from such Revolving Lender without set-off,
counterclaim or deduction of any kind. If any Revolving Lender fails to pay
the amount of its Pro Rata Share forthwith upon Agent's demand, Agent shall
promptly notify Borrower Representative and Borrowers shall immediately repay
such amount to Agent. Nothing in this SECTION 9.9(b) or elsewhere in this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to require Agent to
advance funds on behalf of any Revolving Lender or to relieve any Revolving
Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitments hereunder or to
prejudice any rights that Borrowers may have against any Revolving Lender as
a result of any default by such Revolving Lender hereunder. To the extent
that Agent advances funds to any Borrower on behalf of any Revolving Lender
and is not reimbursed therefor on the same Business Day as such Advance is
made, Agent shall be entitled to retain for its account all interest accrued
on such Advance until reimbursed by the applicable Revolving Lender.

(c) RETURN OF PAYMENTS. (i) If 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 Agent from Borrowers and such related
payment is not received by Agent, then Agent will be entitled to recover such
amount from such Lender on demand without set-off, counterclaim or deduction
of any kind.

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

(d) NON-FUNDING LENDERS. The failure of any Non-Funding
Lender to make any Revolving Credit Advance or any payment required by it
hereunder or to purchase any participation in any Swing Line Loan to be made
or purchased by it on the date specified therefor shall not relieve any other
Revolving Lender (each such other Revolving Lender, an "OTHER LENDER") of its
obligations to make such Advance or purchase such participation on such date,
but neither any Other Lender nor Agent shall be responsible for the failure
of any Non-Funding Lender to make an Advance or to purchase a participation
required hereunder. 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 Loan Document or constitute a "Lender" or a
"Revolving Lender" (or be included in the calculation of "Requisite Lenders",
"Requisite Revolving Lenders" or "Supermajority Revolving Lenders" hereunder)
for any voting or consent rights under or with respect to any Loan Document.

(e) DISSEMINATION OF INFORMATION. Agent will use
reasonable efforts to provide Lenders with any notice of Default or Event of
Default received by Agent from, or delivered by Agent to, any Credit Party,
with notice of any Event of Default of which Agent has actually become aware
and with notice of any action taken by Agent following any Event of Default;
provided, however, that Agent shall not be liable to any Lender for any
failure to do so, except to the extent that such failure is attributable to
Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct.

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 Notes (including exercising any rights of
set-off) without first obtaining the prior written consent of Agent and
Requisite Lenders, it being the intent of Lenders that any such action to
protect or enforce rights under this Agreement and the Notes shall be taken
in concert and at the direction or with the consent of Agent.

predating this Agreement and relating to a financing of substantially similar
form, purpose or effect shall be superseded by this Agreement.

11.2. AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS. (a) Except for actions
expressly permitted to be taken by Agent, no amendment, modification,
termination or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any of the Notes,

Supermajority Revolving Lenders or all affected Lenders, as applicable.
Except as set forth in CLAUSES (b) and (c) below, all such amendments,
modifications, terminations or waivers requiring the consent of any Lenders

(b) No amendment, modification, termination or waiver of or
consent with respect to any provision of this Agreement which increases the
percentage advance rates set forth in the definition of the MCP Revolving
Borrowing Base or the Second Borrower Revolving Borrowing Base (to the extent
applicable), or which makes less restrictive the nondiscretionary criteria
for exclusion from Eligible Accounts and Eligible Inventory set forth in
SECTIONS 1.6 and 1.7 shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing
and signed by Agent, Supermajority Revolving Lenders and Borrowers. No
amendment, modification, termination or waiver of or consent with respect to
any provision of this Agreement which waives compliance with the conditions
precedent set forth in SECTION 2.2 to the making of any Loan or the
incurrence of any Letter of Credit Obligations shall be effective unless the
same shall be in writing and signed by Agent, Requisite Revolving Lenders and
Borrowers. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the

therewith Agent or Requisite Revolving Lenders, as the case may be, have
exercised its or their right to suspend the making or incurrence of further
Advances or Letter of Credit Obligations pursuant to SECTION 8.2(a)) or any
Event of Default shall be effective for purposes of the conditions precedent

Requisite Revolving Lenders and Borrowers.

(c) No amendment, modification, termination or waiver

affected thereby, do any of the following: (i) increase the principal amount

(which action shall be deemed to directly affect all Lenders); (vi) change
the percentage of the Commitments or of the aggregate unpaid principal amount
of the Loans which shall be required for Lenders or any of them to take any
action hereunder; and (vii) amend or waive this SECTION 11.2 or the
definitions of the terms "Requisite Lenders", "Requisite Revolving Lenders"
or "Supermajority Revolving Lenders" insofar as such definitions affect the
substance of this

SECTION 11.2. Furthermore, no amendment, modification, termination or
waiver affecting the rights or duties of Agent under this Agreement or any
other Loan Document shall be effective unless in writing and signed by Agent,
in addition to Lenders required hereinabove to take such action. Each
amendment, modification, termination or waiver shall be effective only in the
specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given. No
amendment, modification, termination or waiver shall be required for Agent to
take additional Collateral pursuant to any Loan Document. No amendment,
modification, termination or waiver of any provision of any Note shall be
effective without the written concurrence of the holder of that Note. No
notice to or demand on any Credit Party in any case shall entitle such Credit
Party or any other Credit Party 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 11.2 shall be
binding upon each holder of the Notes at the time outstanding and each future
holder of the Notes.

(d) If, in connection with any proposed amendment,
modification, waiver or termination (a "PROPOSED CHANGE"):

(i) requiring the consent of all affected Lenders,
the consent of Requisite Lenders is obtained, but the consent of other
Lenders whose consent is required is not obtained (any such Lender whose
consent is not obtained as described this CLAUSE (i) and in CLAUSES (ii),
(iii) and (iv) below being referred to as a "NON-CONSENTING LENDER"), or

(ii) requiring the consent of Supermajority
Revolving Lenders, the consent of Requisite Revolving Lenders is obtained,
but the consent of Supermajority Revolving Lenders is not obtained, or

(iii) requiring the consent of Requisite Revolving
Lenders, the consent of Revolving Lenders holding 51% or more of the
aggregate Revolving Loan Commitments is obtained, but the consent of
Requisite Revolving Lenders is not obtained, or

(iv) requiring the consent of Requisite Lenders, the
consent of Lenders holding 51% or more of the aggregate Commitments is
obtained, but the consent of Requisite Lenders is not obtained, then, so long
as Agent is not a Non-Consenting Lender, at Borrower Representative's
request, Agent or a Person acceptable to Agent shall have the right with
Agent's consent and in Agent's sole discretion (but shall have no obligation)
to purchase from such Non-Consenting Lenders, and such Non-Consenting Lenders
agree that they shall, upon Agent's request, sell and assign to Agent or such
Person, all of the Commitments of such Non-Consenting Lender for an amount
equal to the principal balance of all Loans held by the Non-Consenting Lender
and all accrued interest and Fees with respect thereto through the date of
sale, such purchase and sale to be consummated pursuant to an executed
Assignment Agreement.

(e) Upon indefeasible payment in full in cash and
performance of all of the Obligations (other than indemnification Obligations
under Section 1.13, termination of the Commitments and a release of all
claims against Agent and Lenders, and so long as no suits, actions,
proceedings, or claims are pending or threatened against any Indemnified
Person asserting any damages, losses or liabilities that are Indemnified
Liabilities, Agent shall deliver to Borrowers termination statements,
mortgage releases and other documents necessary or appropriate to evidence
the termination of the Liens securing payment of the Obligations.

11.3. FEES AND EXPENSES. Borrowers shall reimburse Agent for
all out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with the preparation of the
Loan Documents (including the reasonable fees and expenses of all of its
special loan counsel, advisors, consultants and auditors retained in
connection with the Loan Documents and the Related Transactions and advice in
connection therewith). Borrowers shall reimburse Agent (and, with respect to
CLAUSES (c), (d) and (e) below, all Lenders) for all fees, costs and
expenses, including the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of counsel or
other advisors (including environmental and management consultants and
appraisers) for advice, assistance, or other representation in connection
with:

(a) the forwarding to Borrowers or any other Person on
behalf of Borrowers by Agent of the proceeds of the Loans;

(b) any amendment, modification or waiver of, or consent
with respect to, any of the Loan Documents or Related Transactions Documents
or advice in connection with the administration of the Loans made pursuant
hereto or its rights hereunder or thereunder;

(c) any litigation, contest, dispute, suit, proceeding or
action (whether instituted by Agent, any Lender, any Borrower or any other
Person) in any way relating to the Collateral, any of the Loan Documents or
any other agreement to be executed or delivered in connection therewith or
herewith, whether as party, witness, or otherwise, including any litigation,
contest, dispute, suit, case, proceeding or action, and any appeal or review
thereof, in connection with a case commenced by or against any or all of the
Borrowers or any other Person that may be obligated to Agent by virtue of the
Loan Documents; including any such litigation, contest, dispute, suit,
proceeding or action arising in connection with any work-out or restructuring
of the Loans during the pendency of one or more Events of Default; PROVIDED
that in the case of reimbursement of counsel for Lenders other than Agent,

other than Agent, such reimbursement shall be limited to one counsel for all
such Lenders;

(e) any work-out or restructuring of the Loans during the
pendency of one or more Events of Default; or

appraise, collect, sell, liquidate or otherwise dispose of any of the
Collateral;

including, as to each of clauses (a) through (f) above, all attorneys' and
other professional and service providers' fees arising from such services,
including those in connection with any appellate proceedings; and all
expenses, costs, charges and other fees incurred by such counsel and others
in any way or respect arising in connection with or relating to any of the
events or actions described in this SECTION 11.3 shall be payable, on demand,
by Borrowers to Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, such
expenses, costs, charges and fees may include: fees, costs and expenses of
accountants, environmental advisors, appraisers, investment bankers,
management and other consultants and paralegals; court costs and expenses;
photocopying and duplication expenses; court reporter fees, costs and
expenses; long distance telephone charges; air express charges; telegram or
telecopy charges; secretarial overtime charges; and expenses for travel,
lodging and food paid or incurred in connection with the performance of such
legal or other advisory services.

11.4. NO WAIVER. Agent's or any Lender's failure, at any
time or times, to require strict performance by the Credit Parties of any
provision of this Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents shall not
waive, affect or diminish any right of Agent or such Lender thereafter to
demand strict compliance and performance therewith. Any suspension or waiver
of an Event of Default shall not suspend, waive or affect any other Event of
Default whether the same is prior or subsequent thereto and whether the same
or of a different type. Subject to the provisions of SECTION 11.2, none of
the undertakings, agreements, warranties, covenants and representations of
any Credit Party contained in this Agreement or any of the other Loan
Documents and no Default or Event of Default by any Credit Party shall be
deemed to have been suspended or waived by Agent or any Lender, unless such
waiver or suspension is by an instrument in writing signed by an officer of
or other authorized employee of Agent and the applicable required Lenders,
and directed to Borrowers specifying such suspension or waiver.

11.5. REMEDIES. Agent's and Lenders' rights and remedies
under this Agreement shall be cumulative and nonexclusive of any other rights
and remedies which Agent or any Lender may have under any other agreement,
including the other Loan Documents, by operation of law or otherwise.
Recourse to the Collateral shall not be required.

11.6. SEVERABILITY. Wherever possible, each provision of
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be interpreted in such a
manner as to be effective and valid

under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be
prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be
ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without
invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of
this Agreement.

11.7. CONFLICT OF TERMS. Except as otherwise provided in
this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents by specific reference to
the applicable provisions of this Agreement, if any provision contained in
this Agreement is in conflict with, or inconsistent with, any provision in
any of the other Loan Documents, the provision contained in this Agreement
shall govern and control.

11.8. CONFIDENTIALITY. Agent and each Lender agree to use
commercially reasonable efforts and at least equivalent to the efforts Agent
or such Lender applies to maintaining the confidentiality of its own
confidential information to maintain as confidential all confidential
information provided to them by the Credit Parties and designated as
confidential for a period of two (2) years following receipt thereof, except
that Agent and any Lender may disclose such information (a) to Persons
employed or engaged by Agent or such Lender in evaluating, approving,
structuring or administering the Loans and the Commitments; (b) to any bona
fide assignee or participant or potential assignee or participant that has
agreed to comply with the covenant contained in this SECTION 11.8 (and any
such bona fide assignee or participant or potential assignee or participant
may disclose such information to Persons employed or engaged by them as
described in CLAUSE (a) above); (c) as required or requested by any
Governmental Authority or reasonably believed by Agent or such Lender to be
compelled by any court decree, subpoena or legal or administrative order or
process; (d) as, on the advice of Agent's or such Lender's counsel, required
by law; (e) in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy under the
Loan Documents or in connection with any Litigation to which Agent or such
Lender is a party; or (f) which ceases to be confidential through no fault of
Agent or such Lender.

11.9. GOVERNING LAW. EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY PROVIDED
IN ANY OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, IN ALL RESPECTS, INCLUDING ALL MATTERS OF
CONSTRUCTION, VALIDITY AND PERFORMANCE, THE LOAN DOCUMENTS AND THE
OBLIGATIONS SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE
WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS MADE AND
PERFORMED IN THAT STATE AND ANY APPLICABLE LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES OF
AMERICA. EACH CREDIT PARTY HEREBY CONSENTS AND AGREES THAT THE STATE OR
FEDERAL COURTS LOCATED IN ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇ ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ SHALL
HAVE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION TO HEAR AND DETERMINE ANY CLAIMS OR DISPUTES
BETWEEN THE CREDIT PARTIES, AGENT AND LENDERS PERTAINING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR
ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR TO ANY MATTER ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING
TO THIS

AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, PROVIDED, THAT AGENT, LENDERS
AND THE CREDIT PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT ANY APPEALS FROM THOSE COURTS MAY
HAVE TO BE HEARD BY A COURT LOCATED OUTSIDE OF NEW YORK COUNTY, CITY OF NEW
YORK, NEW YORK AND, PROVIDED, FURTHER NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE
DEEMED OR OPERATE TO PRECLUDE AGENT FROM BRINGING SUIT OR TAKING OTHER LEGAL
ACTION IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION TO REALIZE ON THE COLLATERAL OR ANY OTHER
SECURITY FOR THE OBLIGATIONS, OR TO ENFORCE A JUDGMENT OR OTHER COURT ORDER
IN FAVOR OF AGENT. EACH CREDIT PARTY EXPRESSLY SUBMITS AND CONSENTS IN
ADVANCE TO SUCH JURISDICTION IN ANY ACTION OR SUIT COMMENCED IN ANY SUCH
COURT, AND EACH CREDIT PARTY HEREBY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION WHICH SUCH CREDIT
PARTY MAY HAVE BASED UPON LACK OF PERSONAL JURISDICTION, IMPROPER VENUE OR
FORUM NON CONVENIENS AND HEREBY CONSENTS TO THE GRANTING OF SUCH LEGAL OR
EQUITABLE RELIEF AS IS DEEMED APPROPRIATE BY SUCH COURT. EACH CREDIT PARTY
HEREBY WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF THE SUMMONS, COMPLAINT AND OTHER PROCESS
ISSUED IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR SUIT AND AGREES THAT SERVICE OF SUCH SUMMONS,
COMPLAINTS AND OTHER PROCESS MAY BE MADE BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL
ADDRESSED TO SUCH CREDIT PARTY AT THE ADDRESS SET FORTH IN ANNEX I OF THIS
AGREEMENT AND THAT SERVICE SO MADE SHALL BE DEEMED COMPLETED UPON THE EARLIER
OF SUCH CREDIT PARTY'S ACTUAL RECEIPT THEREOF OR THREE (3) DAYS AFTER DEPOSIT
IN THE U.S. MAILS, PROPER POSTAGE PREPAID.

11.10. NOTICES. Except as otherwise provided herein, whenever
it is provided herein that any notice, demand, request, consent, approval,
declaration or other communication shall or may be given to or served upon
any of the parties by any other parties, or whenever any of the parties
desires to give or serve upon any other parties any communication with
respect to this Agreement, each such notice, demand, request, consent,
approval, declaration or other communication shall be in writing and shall be
deemed to have been validly served, given or delivered (a) upon the earlier
of actual receipt and three (3) Business Days after deposit in the United
States Mail, registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, with
proper postage prepaid, (b) upon transmission, when sent by telecopy or other
similar facsimile transmission (with such telecopy or facsimile promptly
confirmed by delivery of a copy by personal delivery or United States Mail as
otherwise provided in this SECTION 11.10), (c) one (1) Business Day after
deposit with a reputable overnight courier with all charges prepaid or (d)
when delivered, if hand-delivered by messenger, all of which shall be
addressed to the party to be notified and sent to the address or facsimile
number indicated on ANNEX I or to such other address (or facsimile number) as
may be substituted by notice given as herein provided. The giving of any
notice required hereunder may be waived in writing by the party 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 Borrower Representative or Agent) designated on ANNEX I to
receive copies shall in no way adversely affect the effectiveness of such
notice, demand, request, consent, approval, declaration or other
communication.

11.11. SECTION TITLES. The Section titles and Table of
Contents contained in this Agreement are and shall be without substantive
meaning or content of any kind whatsoever and are not a part of the agreement
between the parties hereto.

11.12. COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in any
number of separate counterparts, each of which shall collectively and
separately constitute one agreement.

11.13. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. BECAUSE DISPUTES ARISING IN
CONNECTION WITH COMPLEX FINANCIAL TRANSACTIONS ARE MOST QUICKLY AND
ECONOMICALLY RESOLVED BY AN EXPERIENCED AND EXPERT PERSON AND THE PARTIES
WISH APPLICABLE STATE AND FEDERAL LAWS TO APPLY (RATHER THAN ARBITRATION
RULES), THE PARTIES DESIRE THAT THEIR DISPUTES BE RESOLVED BY A JUDGE
APPLYING SUCH APPLICABLE LAWS. THEREFORE, TO ACHIEVE THE BEST COMBINATION OF
THE BENEFITS OF THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM AND OF ARBITRATION, THE PARTIES HERETO
WAIVE ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT
TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE, WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE,
AMONG AGENT, LENDERS AND ANY CREDIT PARTY ARISING OUT OF, CONNECTED WITH,
RELATED TO, OR INCIDENTAL TO THE RELATIONSHIP ESTABLISHED AMONG THEM IN
CONNECTION WITH, THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR THE
TRANSACTIONS RELATED THERETO.

11.14. PRESS RELEASES. Each Credit Party executing this
Agreement agrees that neither it nor its Affiliates will in the future issue
any press releases or other public disclosure using the name of GE Capital or
its affiliates or referring to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or
the Related Transactions Documents without at least two (2) Business Days'
prior notice to GE Capital and without the prior written consent of GE
Capital unless (and only to the extent that) such Credit Party or Affiliate
is required to do so under law and then, in any event, such Credit Party or
Affiliate will consult with GE Capital before issuing such press release or
other public disclosure. Each Credit Party consents to the publication by
Agent or any Lender of a tombstone or similar advertising material relating
to the financing transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Agent reserves
the right to provide to industry trade organizations information necessary
and customary for inclusion in league table measurements with Borrowers'
consent which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

11.15. REINSTATEMENT. This Agreement shall remain in full
force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by
or against any Borrower for liquidation or reorganization, should any
Borrower become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of any
creditor or creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or
any

significant part of any Borrower's assets, and shall continue to be effective
or to be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and
performance of the Obligations, or any part thereof, is, pursuant to
applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored
or returned by any obligee of the Obligations, whether as a "voidable
preference," "fraudulent conveyance," or otherwise, all as though such
payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment, or
any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the
Obligations shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid
and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.

11.16. ADVICE OF COUNSEL. Each of the parties represents to
each other party hereto that it has discussed this Agreement and,
specifically, the provisions of SECTIONS 11.9 and 11.13, with its counsel.

11.17. NO STRICT CONSTRUCTION. The parties hereto have
participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In
the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this
Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto and
no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any
party by virtue of the authorship of any provisions of this Agreement.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Agreement has been duly executed as
of the date first written above.

ANNEX B (SECTION 1.2)
TO
CREDIT AGREEMENT
LETTERS OF CREDIT

(a) ISSUANCE. Subject to the terms and conditions of the
Agreement, Agent and Revolving Lenders agree to incur, from time to time
prior to the Commitment Termination Date, upon the request of Borrower
Representative on behalf of the applicable Borrower and for such Borrower's
account, Letter of Credit Obligations by causing Letters of Credit to be
issued (by a bank or other legally authorized Person selected by or
acceptable to Agent in its sole discretion (each, an "L/C ISSUER")) for such
Borrower's account and guaranteed by Agent; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if the
L/C Issuer is a Revolving Lender, then such Letters of Credit shall not be
guaranteed by Agent but rather each Revolving Lender shall, subject to the
terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, purchase (or be deemed to have
purchased) risk participations in all such Letters of Credit issued with the
written consent of Agent, as more fully described in paragraph (b)(ii) below.
The aggregate amount of all such Letter of Credit Obligations shall not at
any time exceed the least of (i) $1,500,000 (the "L/C SUBLIMIT"), and (ii)
the Maximum Amount LESS the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the
Revolving Credit Advances and the Swing Line Loan, and (iii) the Aggregate
Revolving Borrowing Base LESS the aggregate outstanding principal balance of
the Revolving Credit Advances and the Swing Line Loan. Furthermore, the
aggregate amount of any Letter of Credit Obligations incurred on behalf of
any Borrower shall not at any time exceed such Borrower's separate Revolving
Borrowing Base LESS the aggregate principal balance of the Revolving Credit
Advances and the Swing Line Loan to such Borrower. No such Letter of Credit
shall have an expiry date which is more than one year following the date of
issuance thereof, and neither Agent nor Revolving Lenders shall be under any
obligation to incur Letter of Credit Obligations in respect of, or purchase
risk participations in, any Letter of Credit having an expiry date which is
later than the Commitment Termination Date.

(b) (i) ADVANCES AUTOMATIC; PARTICIPATIONS. In the event
that Agent or any Revolving Lender shall make any payment on or pursuant to
any Letter of Credit Obligation, such payment shall then be deemed
automatically to constitute a Revolving Credit Advance (which would
extinguish the corresponding Letter of Credit Obligations) to the applicable
Borrower under SECTION 1.1(a) of the Agreement regardless of whether a
Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and
notwithstanding any Borrower's failure to satisfy the conditions precedent
set forth in SECTION 2, and each Revolving Lender shall be obligated to pay
its Pro Rata Share thereof in accordance with the Agreement. The failure of
any Revolving Lender to make available to Agent for Agent's own account its
Pro Rata Share of any such Revolving Credit Advance or payment by Agent under
or in respect of a Letter of Credit shall not relieve any other Revolving
Lender of its obligation hereunder to make available to Agent its Pro Rata
Share thereof, but no Revolving Lender shall be responsible for

B-1

the failure of any other Revolving Lender to make available such other
Revolving Lender's Pro Rata Share of any such payment.

(ii) If it shall be illegal or unlawful for any Borrower
to incur Revolving Credit Advances as contemplated by paragraph (b)(i) above
because of an Event of Default described in SECTION 8.1(h) or (i) or
otherwise or if it shall be illegal or unlawful for any Revolving Lender to
be deemed to have assumed a ratable share of the reimbursement obligations
owed to an L/C Issuer, or if the L/C Issuer is a Revolving Lender, then (i)
immediately and without further action whatsoever, each Revolving Lender
shall be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased from Agent
(or such L/C Issuer, as the case may be) an undivided interest and
participation equal to such Revolving Lender's Pro Rata Share (based on the
Revolving Loan Commitments) of the Letter of Credit Obligations in respect of
all Letters of Credit then outstanding and (ii) thereafter, immediately upon
issuance of any Letter of Credit, each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to
have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased from Agent (or such L/C
Issuer, as the case may be) an undivided interest and participation in such
Revolving Lender's Pro Rata Share (based on the Revolving Loan Commitments)
of the Letter of Credit Obligations with respect to such Letter of Credit on
the date of such issuance. Each Revolving Lender shall fund its
participation in all payments or disbursements made under the Letters of
Credit in the same manner as provided in the Agreement with respect to
Revolving Credit Advances.

(c) CASH COLLATERAL. If Borrowers are required to provide
cash collateral for any Letter of Credit Obligations pursuant to the
Agreement prior to the Commitment Termination Date, each Borrower will pay to
Agent for the benefit of Revolving Lenders cash or cash equivalents
acceptable to Agent ("CASH EQUIVALENTS") in an amount equal to 105% of the
maximum amount then available to be drawn under each applicable Letter of
Credit outstanding for the benefit of such Borrower. Such funds or Cash
Equivalents shall be held by Agent in a cash collateral account (the "CASH
COLLATERAL ACCOUNT") maintained at a bank or financial institution acceptable
to Agent. The Cash Collateral Account shall be in the name of the applicable
Borrower and shall be pledged to, and subject to the control of, Agent, for
the benefit of Agent and Lenders, in a manner satisfactory to Agent. Each
Borrower hereby pledges and grants to Agent, on behalf of Lenders, a security
interest in all such funds and Cash Equivalents held in the Cash Collateral
Account from time to time and all proceeds thereof, as security for the
payment of all amounts due in respect of the Letter of Credit Obligations and
other Obligations, whether or not then due. The Agreement, including this
ANNEX B, shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law.

If any Letter of Credit Obligations, whether or not then due
and payable, shall for any reason be outstanding on the Commitment
Termination Date, Borrowers shall either (i) provide cash collateral therefor
in the manner described above, or (ii) cause all such Letters of Credit and
guaranties thereof to be canceled and returned, or (iii) deliver a stand-by
letter (or letters) of credit in guaranty of such Letter of Credit
Obligations, which stand-by letter (or letters) of credit shall be of like
tenor and duration (plus thirty (30) additional days) as, and in an amount
equal to 105% of, the aggregate maximum amount then available to be drawn
under, the Letters of Credit to which such outstanding Letter of Credit
Obligations relate and shall be

B-2

issued by a Person, and shall be subject to such terms and conditions, as are
be satisfactory to Agent in its sole discretion.

From time to time after funds are deposited in the Cash
Collateral Account by any Borrower, whether before or after the Commitment
Termination Date, Agent may apply such funds or Cash Equivalents then held in
the Cash Collateral Account to the payment of any amounts, in such order as
Agent may elect, as shall be or shall become due and payable by such Borrower
to Lenders with respect to such Letter of Credit Obligations of such Borrower
and, upon the satisfaction in full of all Letter of Credit Obligations of
such Borrower, to any other Obligations of any Borrower then due and payable.

No Borrower nor any Person claiming on behalf of or through
any Borrower shall have any right to withdraw any of the funds or Cash
Equivalents held in the Cash Collateral Account, except that upon the
termination of all Letter of Credit Obligations and the payment of all
amounts payable by Borrowers to Lenders in respect thereof, any funds
remaining in the Cash Collateral Account shall be applied to other
Obligations when due and owing and upon payment in full of such Obligations,
any remaining amount shall be paid to Borrowers or as otherwise required by
law.

(d) FEES AND EXPENSES. Borrowers agree to pay to Agent for
the benefit of Revolving Lenders, as compensation to such Lenders for Letter
of Credit Obligations incurred hereunder, (x) all costs and expenses incurred
by Agent or any Lender on account of such Letter of Credit Obligations, and
(y) for each month during which any Letter of Credit Obligation shall remain
outstanding, a fee (the "LETTER OF CREDIT FEE") in an amount equal to 1.5%
per annum multiplied by the maximum amount available from time to time to be
drawn under the applicable Letter of Credit. Such fee shall be paid to
Agent for the benefit of the Revolving Lenders in arrears, on the first day
of each month. In addition, Borrowers shall pay to any L/C Issuer, on demand,
such fees (including all per annum fees), charges and expenses of such L/C
Issuer in respect of the issuance, negotiation, acceptance, amendment,
transfer and payment of such Letter of Credit or otherwise payable pursuant
to the application and related documentation under which such Letter of
Credit is issued.

(e) REQUEST FOR INCURRENCE OF LETTER OF CREDIT OBLIGATIONS.
Borrower Representative shall give Agent at least two (2) Business Days prior
written notice requesting the incurrence of any Letter of Credit Obligation,
specifying the date such Letter of Credit Obligation is to be incurred,
identifying the beneficiary and the Borrower to which such Letter of Credit
Obligation relates and describing the nature of the transactions proposed to
be supported thereby. The notice shall be accompanied by the form of the
Letter of Credit (which shall be acceptable to the L/C Issuer) to be
guarantied and, to the extent not previously delivered to Agent, copies of
all agreements between any Borrower and the L/C Issuer pertaining to the
issuance of Letters of Credit. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to
the contrary, Letter of Credit applications by Borrower Representative and
approvals by Agent and the L/C Issuer may be made and transmitted pursuant to
electronic codes and security measures mutually agreed upon and established
by and among Borrower Representative, Agent and the L/C Issuer.

B-3

(f) OBLIGATION ABSOLUTE. The obligation of Borrowers to
reimburse Agent and Revolving Lenders for payments made with respect to any
Letter of Credit Obligation shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable,
without necessity of presentment, demand, protest or other formalities, and
the obligations of each Revolving Lender to make payments to Agent with
respect to Letters of Credit shall be unconditional and irrevocable. Such
obligations of Borrowers and Revolving Lenders shall be paid strictly in
accordance with the terms hereof under all circumstances including the
following circumstances:

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of
Credit or the Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any other
agreement;

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

(iii) any draft, demand, certificate or any other document
presented under any Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent,
invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being
untrue or inaccurate in any respect;

in paragraph (g)(ii)(C) below) or any L/C Issuer under any Letter of
Credit or guaranty thereof against presentation of a demand, draft or
certificate or other document which does not comply with the terms of
such Letter of Credit or such guaranty;

(v) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, which is
similar to any of the foregoing; or

(vi) the fact that a Default or an Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing.

(g) INDEMNIFICATION; NATURE OF LENDERS' DUTIES. (i) In
addition to amounts payable as elsewhere provided in the Agreement, Borrowers
hereby agree to pay and to protect, indemnify, and save harmless Agent and
each Lender from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities,
damages, losses, costs, charges and expenses (including attorneys' fees and
allocated costs of internal counsel) which Agent or any Lender may incur or
be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of (A) the issuance of
any Letter of Credit or guaranty thereof, or (B) the failure of Agent or any
Lender seeking indemnification or of any L/C Issuer to honor a demand for
payment under any Letter of Credit or guaranty thereof as a result of any act
or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future de jure
or de facto

B-4

government or Governmental Authority, in each case other than to the extent
solely as a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Agent or
such Lender (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction).

(ii) As between Agent and any Lender and Borrowers,
Borrowers assume all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of any
Letter of Credit by beneficiaries of any Letter of Credit. In furtherance
and not in limitation of the foregoing, to the fullest extent permitted by
law neither Agent nor any Lender shall be responsible: (A) for the form,
validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document
issued by any party in connection with the application for and issuance of
any Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all
respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged; (B) for the
validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or
purporting to transfer or assign any Letter of Credit or the rights or
benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove
to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (C) for failure of the
beneficiary of any Letter of Credit to comply fully with conditions required
in order to demand payment under such Letter of Credit; PROVIDED that, in the
case of any payment by Agent under any Letter of Credit or guaranty thereof,
Agent shall be liable to the extent such payment was made solely as a result
of its gross negligence or willful misconduct (as finally determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction) in determining that the demand for payment
under such Letter of Credit or guaranty thereof complies on its face with any
applicable requirements for a demand for payment under such Letter of Credit
or guaranty thereof; (D) for errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in

otherwise of any document required in order to make a payment under any
Letter of Credit or guaranty thereof or of the proceeds thereof; (G) for the
credit of the proceeds of any drawing under any Letter of Credit or guaranty
thereof; and (H) for any consequences arising from causes beyond the control
of Agent or any Lender. None of the above shall affect, impair, or prevent
the vesting of any of Agent's or any Lender's rights or powers hereunder or
under the Agreement.

(iii) Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to
limit or to expand any waivers, covenants or indemnities made by Borrowers in
favor of any L/C Issuer in any letter of credit application, reimbursement
agreement or similar document, instrument or agreement between or among
Borrowers and such L/C Issuer.

Unless otherwise specifically provided herein, any accounting

in accordance with GAAP, and all financial computations hereunder shall be
computed in accordance with GAAP consistently applied. That certain items or
computations are explicitly modified by the phrase "in accordance with GAAP"
shall in no way be construed to limit the foregoing. If any "Accounting
Changes" (as defined below) occur and such changes result in a change in the
calculation of the financial covenants, standards or terms used in the
Agreement or any other Loan Document, then Borrowers, Agent and Lenders agree
to enter into negotiations in order to amend such provisions of the Agreement
so as to equitably reflect such Accounting Changes with the desired result
that the criteria for evaluating Borrowers' and their Subsidiaries' financial
condition shall be the same after such Accounting Changes as if such
Accounting Changes had not been made; provided, however, that the agreement
of Requisite Lenders to

G-2

any required amendments of such provisions shall be sufficient to bind all
Lenders. "ACCOUNTING CHANGES" means (a) changes in accounting principles
required by the promulgation of any rule, regulation, pronouncement or
opinion by the Financial Accounting Standards Board of the American Institute
of Certified Public Accountants (or successor thereto or any agency with
similar functions), (b) changes in accounting principles concurred in by any
Borrower's certified public accountants; (c) purchase accounting adjustments
under A.P.B. 16 and/or 17 and EITF 88-16, and the application of the
accounting principles set forth in FASB 109, including the establishment of
reserves pursuant thereto and any subsequent reversal (in whole or in part)
of such reserves; and (d) the reversal of any reserves established as a
result of purchase accounting adjustments. All such adjustments resulting
from expenditures made subsequent to the Closing Date (including
capitalization of costs and expenses or payment of pre-Closing Date
liabilities) shall be treated as expenses in the period the expenditures are
made and deducted as part of the calculation of EBITDA in such period. If
Agent, Borrowers and Requisite Lenders agree upon the required amendments,
then after appropriate amendments have been executed and the underlying
Accounting Change with respect thereto has been implemented, any reference to
GAAP contained in the Agreement or in any other Loan Document shall, only to
the extent of such Accounting Change, refer to GAAP, consistently applied
