through the ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise. Without
limitation, any director, executive officer or beneficial owner of 5% or more
of the equity of a Person shall for the purposes of this Agreement, be deemed
to control the other Person. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Bank shall be
deemed an "Affiliate" of the Company or of any Subsidiary of the Company.

1
9
"Agent" means BofA in its capacity as agent for the Banks hereunder,
and any successor agent.

"Agent's Payment Office" means the address for payments set forth on
Schedule 11.2 in relation to the Agent or such other address as the Agent may
from time to time specify in accordance with Section 11.2.

"Agent-Related Persons" means BofA, the Arranger, and any successor agent
arising under Section 10.9 and any successor to BofA as letter of credit
issuing bank or Swingline Bank hereunder, together with their respective
Affiliates, and the officers, directors, employees, agents and
attorneys-in-fact of such Persons and Affiliates.

"Aggregate Commitment" means the combined Revolving Commitments of the
Banks, in the initial amount of two hundred twenty-five million dollars
($225,000,000), as such amount may be reduced from time to time pursuant to
this Agreement.

"Agreement" means this Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement,
as amended from time to time in accordance with the terms hereof.

"Applicable Margin" means, in respect of all Loans outstanding on any
date (A) for the period from the Closing Date through March 31, 1997, 0.4500%
for Offshore Rate Loans and 0.0000% for Base Rate Loans, and (B) from April 1,
1997, the percentage specified below opposite the Interest Coverage Ratio
(which ratio shall be calculated on a four quarter rolling basis for the
relevant fiscal quarter) calculated for the periods described below.

INTEREST COVERAGE RATIO AT END OF FISCAL QUARTER APPLICABLE MARGIN
------------------------------------------------ -----------------

Offshore Rate Base Rate
------------- ---------

Greater than or equal to 4.0 0.3500% 0.0000%
Less than 4.0 but greater than or equal to 3.7 0.4000% 0.0000%
Less than 3.7 but greater than or equal to 3.4 0.4500% 0.0000%
Less than 3.4 but greater than or equal to 3.1 0.5500% 0.0000%

2
10

Less than 3.1 but greater than or equal to 2.8 0.6500% 0.0000%
Less than 2.8 but greater than or equal to 2.5 0.8750% 0.0000%
Less than 2.5 1.1250% 0.0000%

The Applicable Margin for each fiscal quarter commencing on and after
April 1, 1997 shall be calculated in reliance on the financial reports
delivered pursuant to subsections 7.1(a) and 7.1(c) and the certificate
delivered pursuant to subsection 7.2(b) with respect to the fiscal quarter
ending one fiscal quarter before the fiscal quarter in question (e.g., June 30
financials determine the Applicable Margin for the fiscal quarter beginning
October 1). If the Company fails to deliver such financial reports and
certificate to the Agent for any fiscal quarter by the beginning of the next
succeeding fiscal quarter (e.g., by October 1 for the fiscal quarter ending
June 30), then the Applicable Margin for the following fiscal quarter (e.g.,
October 1 through December 31) shall equal the next higher Applicable Margin as
set forth in the chart above immediately below the previously effective
Applicable Margin; thus if the Applicable Margin had previously been 0.6500%
for Offshore Rate Loans and 0.0000% for Base Rate Loans, a failure to deliver
quarterly financials by the first day of the next fiscal quarter would cause
the Applicable Margin to be 0.8750% and 0.0000%, respectively, for the duration
of that quarter. In addition, if such financial reports and certificate when
delivered indicate that the Applicable Margin for such period should have been
higher than the Applicable Margin provided for in the previous sentence, then
the Company shall pay on the date of delivery of such financial reports and
certificate an amount equal to the positive difference, if any, between the
interest that the Company should have paid hereunder had the financial reports
and certificate been delivered on a timely basis over what the Company actually
paid. The Applicable Margin shall be adjusted automatically as to all Loans
then outstanding (without regard to the timing of Interest Periods) as of the
effective date of any change in the Applicable Margin.

"Arranger" means BA Securities, Inc., a Delaware corporation.

"Assignee" has the meaning specified in subsection 11.8(a).

(b) capital expenditures made by the Company during such quarter
(excluding any capital expenditures for such quarter made with Cash from

expenditures which the General Partner reasonably anticipates will be financed

contingent liabilities or endorsements, except to the extent payments are
actually made under such guarantees, contingent liabilities or endorsements) of

from Capital Transactions but which have not been financed from such source
within 90 days from the end of such quarter.

account any reductions in reserves or disbursements made or reserves
established after commencement of the dissolution and liquidation of the
Company. In determining "Available Cash," (i) all items under clauses (i)(a),
(b), (c), (d) and (e) above and all items under clauses (ii)(a), (b), (c), (d),
(e), (f) and (g) above shall be calculated on a combined basis with any

Immaterial Subsidiaries which are directly owned by the Company and its
Restricted Subsidiaries as Restricted Subsidiaries such that the condition in
this proviso is no longer applicable and the entities so designated shall no
longer be Designated Immaterial Subsidiaries. Any entity which has been
designated a Designated Immaterial Subsidiary shall not thereafter become a
Restricted Subsidiary except pursuant to a designation required by the last
proviso in the preceding sentence, and any Designated Immaterial Subsidiary

first day of the next fiscal quarter would cause the Letter of Credit Rate to
be 0.8750% for the duration of that quarter. In addition, if such financial
reports and certificate when delivered indicate that the Letter of Credit Rate

for in the previous sentence, then the Company shall pay on the date of

time to time on any Business Day from the Closing Date to the Revolving

"Commitment" (such amount as the same may be reduced pursuant to Section 2.5 or

Borrowing all or any portion of the proceeds thereof shall then be required to

expiration date of such current Interest Period.

36
44
(d) Upon receipt of a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, the Agent
will promptly notify each Bank thereof, or, if no timely notice is provided by

(i) The Aggregate Commitments shall be reduced from time to
time by the amount of any mandatory prepayment that would be required by
subsection 2.7(a)(i) if Revolving Loans were outstanding, whether or not any
Revolving Loans are outstanding at such time. Such reduction shall be applied
pro rata among the respective Commitments of the Banks and shall be effective
as of the earlier of the date that such prepayment is made or the date by which
such prepayment is (or would be) due and payable hereunder. All accrued
commitment fees to the effective date of any reduction or termination of the
Aggregate Commitment shall be paid on the effective date of such reduction or
termination.

(ii) No reduction in the Aggregate Commitment pursuant to
Section 2.5 or subsection 2.7(b)(i) shall reduce the L/C Commitment unless and
until the Aggregate Commitment has been reduced to $20,000,000; thereafter, any
reduction in the Aggregate Commitment pursuant to Section 2.5 shall equally
reduce the L/C Commitment.

(iii) At no time shall the Swingline Commitment exceed
the Aggregate Commitment, and any reduction of the Aggregate Commitment which
reduces the Aggregate Commitment below the then current amount of the Swingline
Commitment shall result in an automatic corresponding reduction of the
Swingline Commitment to the amount of the Aggregate Commitment, as so reduced,
without any action on the part of the Swingline Bank.

(c) General. Any prepayments of Loans pursuant to subsection
2.7(a) shall be applied first to any Base Rate Loans then outstanding, second
to Cash Collateralize or to prepay Swingline Loans as directed by the Swingline
Bank in its sole discretion, and third, at the Company's option, to Cash
Collateralize or to

39
47
prepay in the inverse order of their stated maturity Offshore Rate Loans.
Subject to the foregoing and so long as no default or Event of Default shall
then exist, if applicable, any such prepayments shall be applied to Revolving
Facility Tranche Loans and Capital Expenditure Tranche Loans as directed by the
Company. The Company shall pay, together with each prepayment under this
Section 2.7, accrued interest on the amount prepaid and any amounts required
pursuant to Section 4.4.

2.8 REPAYMENT

(a) The Company shall repay to the Banks in full on the Revolving
Termination Date the Effective Amount of all Revolving Loans.

(b) The Company shall repay to the Swingline Bank in full on the
Revolving Termination Date the Effective Amount of all Swingline Loans.

2.9 INTEREST

(a) Subject to subsection 2.9(c): (i) each Loan (other than any
Swingline Loan) shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof
from the date when made until it becomes due at a rate per annum equal to the
Offshore Rate or the Base Rate, as the case may be, plus the Applicable Margin;
and (ii) each Swingline Loan shall bear interest on the principal amount
thereof from the date when made until it becomes due at a rate per annum equal
to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin or any other rate agreed to by the
Swingline Bank in its sole discretion.

(b) Interest on each Loan shall be paid in arrears on each
Interest Payment Date and in the case of a Swingline Loan bearing an interest
rate other than the Base Rate, on the date agreed to by the Swingline Bank in
its sole discretion. Interest shall also be paid on the date of any prepayment
of Loans pursuant to Section 2.6 and 2.7 for the portion of the Loans so
prepaid and upon payment (including prepayment) in full thereof and, during the
existence of any Event of Default, interest shall be paid on demand of the
Agent at the request or with the consent of the Majority Banks.

(c) While any Event of Default exists or after acceleration, the
Company shall pay interest (after as well as before entry of judgment thereon
to the extent permitted by law) on the principal amount of all Obligations due
and unpaid, at a rate per annum that is determined, in the case of Loans other
than Base Rate Loans, by adding 2% per annum to the Applicable Margin then in
effect for such Loans and, in the case of other Obligations, at a rate equal to
the Base Rate plus 2% per annum.

(d) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the
obligations of the Company hereunder shall be subject to the limitation that
payments of interest shall

40
48
not be required, for any period for which interest is computed hereunder, to
the extent (but only to the extent) that contracting for or receiving such
payment by the respective Bank would be contrary to the provisions of any law
applicable to such Bank limiting the highest rate of interest which may be
lawfully contracted for, charged or received by such Bank, and in such event
the Company shall pay such Bank interest at the highest rate permitted by
applicable law.

2.10 SWINGLINE LOANS

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Swingline Bank
severally agrees to make a portion of the Aggregate Commitment available to the
Company by making swingline loans (individually, a "Swingline Loan";
collectively, the "Swingline Loans") to the Company on any Business Day during
the period from the Closing Date to the Revolving Termination Date in
accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section in an aggregate
principal amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed $25,000,000,
notwithstanding the fact that such Swingline Loans, when aggregated with the
Swingline Bank's outstanding Loans, may exceed the Swingline Bank's Commitment
(the amount of such commitment of the Swingline Bank to make Swingline Loans to
the Company pursuant to this subsection 2.10(a), as the same shall be reduced
pursuant to subsection 2.7(b) or as a result of any assignment pursuant to
Section 11.8, the Swingline Bank's "Swingline Commitment"); provided, that at
no time shall (i) the Effective Amount of all Revolving Loans, Swingline Loans
and L/C Obligations exceed the Aggregate Commitment, or (ii) the Effective
Amount of all Swingline Loans exceed the Swingline Commitment. Additionally,
no more than four Swingline Loans may be outstanding at any one time. Within
the foregoing limits, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the
Company may borrow under this subsection 2.10(a), prepay pursuant to subsection
2.6 and reborrow pursuant to this subsection 2.10(a).

(b) The Company shall provide the Agent (with a copy to the
Swingline Bank) irrevocable written notice (including notice via facsimile
confirmed immediately by a telephone call) in the form of a Notice of Borrowing
of any Swingline Loan requested hereunder (which notice must be received by the
Swingline Bank and the Agent prior to 12:00 noon (San Francisco time) on the
requested Borrowing date) specifying (i) the amount to be borrowed, (ii) the
requested Borrowing date, which must be a Business Day, and (iii) with respect
to any requested Swingline Loan after the date the Company gives the notice
regarding allocation of Loans pursuant to Section 2.16, whether the requested
Swingline Loan shall be allocated to the Revolving Facility Tranche or the
Capital Expenditure Tranche. Upon receipt of the Notice of Borrowing, the
Swingline Bank will immediately confirm with the Agent (by telephone or in
writing) that the Agent has received a copy of the Notice of Borrowing from the
Company and, if not, the Swingline Bank will provide the Agent with a copy
thereof. Unless the

41
49
Swingline Bank has received notice prior to 2:00 p.m. on such Borrowing date
from the Agent (A) directing the Swingline Bank not to make the requested
Swingline Loan as a result of the limitations set forth in the proviso set
forth in the first sentence of subsection 2.10(a); or (B) that one or more
conditions specified in Article V are not then satisfied; then, subject to the
terms and conditions hereof, the Swingline Bank will, not later than 3:00 p.m.
(San Francisco time) on the Borrowing date specified in such Notice, make the
amount of its Swingline Loan available to the Agent for the account of the
Company at the Agent's Payment Office in funds immediately available to the
Agent. The proceeds of such Swingline Loan will then promptly be made
available to the Company by the Agent crediting the account of the Company on
the books of BofA with the aggregate of the amounts made available to the Agent
by the Swingline Bank and in like funds as received by the Agent. Each
Borrowing pursuant to this Section shall be in an aggregate principal amount
equal to two hundred fifty thousand dollars ($250,000) or an integral multiple
of one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000) in excess thereof, unless otherwise
agreed by the Swingline Bank.

(c) If (i) any Swingline Loans shall remain outstanding at 9:00
a.m. (San Francisco time) on the Business Day immediately prior to a Swingline
Clean-Up Day and by such time on such Business Day the Agent shall have
received neither (A) a Notice of Borrowing delivered pursuant to Section 2.3
requesting that Revolving Loans be made pursuant to Section 2.1 on the
Swingline Clean-Up Day in an amount at least equal to the aggregate principal
amount of such Swingline Loans, nor (B) any other notice indicating the
Company's intent to repay such Swingline Loans with funds obtained from other
sources, or (ii) any Swingline Loans shall remain outstanding during the
existence of a Default or Event of Default and the Swingline Bank shall in its
sole discretion notify the Agent that the Swingline Bank desires that such
Swingline Loans be converted into Revolving Loans, then the Agent shall be
deemed to have received a Notice of Borrowing from the Company pursuant to
Section 2.3 requesting that Base Rate Loans be made pursuant to Section 2.1 on
such Swingline Clean-Up Day (in the case of the circumstances described in
clause (i) above) or on the first Business Day subsequent to the date of such
notice from the Swingline Bank (in the case of the circumstances described in
clause (ii) above) in an amount equal to the aggregate amount of such Swingline
Loans, and the procedures set forth in subsections 2.3(b) and 2.3(c) shall be
followed in making such Base Rate Loans; provided, that such Base Rate Loans
shall be made notwithstanding the Company's failure to comply with subsections
5.2(b) and 5.2(c); and provided, further, that if a Borrowing of Revolving
Loans becomes legally impracticable and if so required by the Swingline Bank at
the time such Revolving Loans are required to be made by the Banks in
accordance with this subsection 2.10(c), each Bank agrees that in lieu of
making Revolving Loans as described in this subsection 2.10(c), such Bank shall
purchase a participation from the Swingline Bank in the applicable Swingline
Loans in an amount equal to such Bank's Commitment Percentage of such Swingline
Loans,

42
50
and the procedures set forth in subsections 11.8 shall be followed in
connection with the purchases of such participations. Upon such purchases of
participations, the prepayment requirements of subsection 2.7(a)(ii) shall be
deemed waived with respect to such Swingline Loans. The proceeds of such Base
Rate Loans, or participations purchased, shall be applied to repay such
Swingline Loans. A copy of each notice given by the Agent to the Banks
pursuant to this subsection 2.10(c) with respect to the making of Revolving
Loans, or the purchases of participations, shall be promptly delivered by the
Agent to the Company. Each Bank's obligation in accordance with this Agreement
to make the Revolving Loans, or purchase the participations, as contemplated by
this subsection 2.10(c), shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be
affected by any circumstance, including (1) any set-off, counterclaim,
recoupment, defense or other right which such Bank may have against the
Swingline Bank, the Company or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (2)
the occurrence or continuance of a Default, an Event of Default or a Material
Adverse Effect; or (3) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever,
whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

2.11 FEES

In addition to certain fees described in Section 3.8:

(a) Agency Fees. The Company shall pay, to the extent not
previously paid, to BofA for BofA's own account fees in the amounts and at the
times set forth in a letter agreement between the Company, BofA and the
Arranger dated October 8, 1996. The foregoing fees shall be non-refundable.

(b) Commitment Fees. The Company shall pay to the Agent for the
account of each Bank a commitment fee on the average daily unused portion of
such Bank's Commitment, computed on a quarterly basis in arrears on the last
Business Day of each calendar quarter based upon the daily utilization for that
quarter as calculated by the Agent, equal to the Commitment Fee Percentage.
For purposes of calculating utilization under this subsection, (i) the
Aggregate Commitment shall be deemed used to the extent of the Effective Amount
of all Revolving Loans and L/C Obligations, and (ii) with respect to the
Commitment of the Swingline Bank, the making of any Swingline Loan shall not be
considered a use of a portion of such Swingline Bank's Commitment. Such
commitment fee shall accrue from the Closing Date to the Revolving Termination
Date and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day
of each calendar quarter, commencing on the first such day after this Agreement
is executed by the Company through the Revolving Termination Date, with the
final payment to be made on the Revolving Termination Date; provided that, in
connection with any reduction or termination of the Aggregate Commitment
pursuant to Section 2.5 or Section 2.7, the accrued commitment fee calculated
for the period ending on such date shall also be paid on the date of such
reduction or termination, with the next succeeding quarterly

43
51
payment being calculated on the basis of the period from the reduction or
termination date to such quarterly payment date. The commitment fees provided
in this subsection shall accrue at all times after the above-mentioned
commencement date, including at any time during which one or more conditions in
Article V are not met.

2.12 COMPUTATION OF FEES AND INTEREST

(a) All computations of interest payable in respect of Base Rate
Loans at all times that the Base Rate is determined by BofA's "reference rate"
shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be,
and actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees and interest under
this Agreement shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days
elapsed, which results in more interest being paid than if computed on the
basis of a 365-day year. Interest and fees shall accrue during each period
during which interest or such fees are computed from the first day thereof to
the last day thereof.

(b) The Agent will, with reasonable promptness, notify the Company
and the Banks of each determination of an Offshore Rate; provided that any
failure to do so shall not relieve the Company of any liability hereunder or
provide the basis for any claim against the Agent. Any change in the interest
rate on a Loan resulting from a change in the Applicable Margin, Reserve
Percentage, Eurocurrency Reserve Percentage, or the Assessment Rate shall
become effective as of the opening of business on the day on which such change
in the Applicable Margin, Reserve Percentage, Eurocurrency Reserve Percentage,
or the Assessment Rate becomes effective. The Agent will with reasonable
promptness notify the Company and the Banks of the effective date and the
amount of each such change, provided that any failure to do so shall not
relieve the Company of any liability hereunder or provide the basis for any
claim against the Agent.

(c) Each determination of an interest rate by the Agent pursuant
hereto shall be conclusive and binding on the Company and the Banks in the
absence of manifest error.

2.13 PAYMENTS BY THE COMPANY

(a) All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Company
on account of principal, interest, fees and other amounts required hereunder
shall be made without set-off, recoupment or counterclaim; shall, except as
otherwise expressly provided herein, be made to the Agent for the ratable
account of the Banks at the Agent's Payment Office, and shall be made in
dollars and in immediately available funds, no later than 10:00 a.m. (San
Francisco time) on the date specified herein. The Agent will promptly
distribute to each Bank its Pro Rata Share (or other applicable share as
expressly provided herein) of such principal, interest, fees or other amounts,
in like funds as received. Any payment which is

44
52
received by the Agent later than 10:00 a.m. (San Francisco time) shall be
deemed to have been received on the immediately succeeding Business Day and any
applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue.

(b) Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a
day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next
succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be
included in the computation of interest or fees, as the case may be; subject to
the provisions set forth in the definition of "Interest Period" herein.

(c) Unless the Agent shall have received notice from the Company
prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Banks hereunder that the
Company will not make such payment in full as and when required hereunder, the
Agent may assume that the Company has made such payment in full to the Agent on
such date in immediately available funds and the Agent may (but shall not be so
required), in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each
Bank on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Bank. If and
to the extent the Company shall not have made such payment in full to the
Agent, each Bank shall repay to the Agent on demand such amount distributed to
such Bank, together with interest thereon for each day from the date such
amount is distributed to such Bank until the date such Bank repays such amount
to the Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate as in effect for each such day.

2.14 PAYMENTS BY THE BANKS TO THE AGENT

(a) Unless the Agent shall have received notice from a Bank on the
Closing Date or, with respect to each Borrowing after the Closing Date, at
least one Business Day prior to the date of any proposed Borrowing, that such
Bank will not make available to the Agent as and when required hereunder for
the account of the Company the amount of that Bank's Commitment Percentage of
the Borrowing, the Agent may assume that each Bank has made such amount
available to the Agent in immediately available funds on the Borrowing date and
the Agent may (but shall not be so required), in reliance upon such assumption,
make available to the Company on such date a corresponding amount. If and to
the extent any Bank shall not have made its full amount available to the Agent
in immediately available funds and the Agent in such circumstances has made
available to the Company such amount, that Bank shall on the next Business Day
following the date of such Borrowing make such amount available to the Agent,
together with interest at the Federal Funds Rate for and determined as of each
day during such period. A notice of the Agent submitted to any Bank with
respect to amounts owing under this subsection 2.14(a) shall be conclusive,
absent manifest error. If such amount is so made available, such payment to
the Agent shall constitute such Bank's Loan on the date of such Borrowing for
all purposes of this Agreement. If such amount is not made available to the
Agent on the next Business Day following the date of

45
53
such Borrowing, the Agent shall notify the Company of such failure to fund and,
upon demand by the Agent, the Company shall pay such amount to the Agent for
the Agent's account, together with interest thereon for each day elapsed since
the date of such Borrowing, at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate
applicable at the time to the Loans comprising such Borrowing.

(b) The failure of any Bank to make any Loan on any date of
borrowing shall not relieve any other Bank of any obligation hereunder to make
a Loan on the date of such borrowing, but no Bank shall be responsible for the
failure of any other Bank to make the Loan to be made by such other Bank on the
date of any borrowing.

2.15 SHARING OF PAYMENTS, ETC.

If, other than as expressly provided elsewhere herein, any Bank
shall obtain on account of the Loans made by it any payment (whether voluntary,
involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise) in
excess of its Commitment Percentage of payments on account of the Loans
obtained by all the Banks, such Bank shall forthwith (a) notify the Agent of
such fact, and (b) purchase from the other Banks such participations in the
Loans made by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Bank to share
the excess payment ratably with each of them; provided, however, that if all or
any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from the purchasing
Bank, such purchase shall to that extent be rescinded and each other Bank shall
repay to the purchasing Bank the purchase price paid therefor, together with an
amount equal to such paying Bank's proportionate share (according to the
proportion of (i) the amount of such paying Bank's required repayment to (ii)
the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Bank) of any interest or
other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Bank in respect of the total
amount so recovered. The Company agrees that any Bank so purchasing a
participation from another Bank pursuant to this Section 2.15 may, to the
fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including
the right of set-off, but subject to Section 11.9) with respect to such
participation as fully as if such Bank were the direct creditor of the Company
in the amount of such participation. The Agent will keep records (which shall
be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error) of participations
purchased pursuant to this Section 2.15 and will in each case notify the Banks
following any such purchases or repayments.

2.16 LOAN TRANCHES

The Company may, at any time and from time to time, upon at least
five Business Days notice to the Agent, allocate all or a portion of
Borrowings, including with respect to Swingline Loans and L/C Obligations, to a
revolving

46
54
credit facility tranche (the "Revolving Facility Tranche") or a capital
expenditure tranche (the "Capital Expenditure Tranche"), or both; provided that

(A) at no time shall the Effective Amount of all Revolving Loans
and Swingline Loans allocated to the Revolving Facility Tranche plus the
Effective Amount of all L/C Obligations exceed $15,000,000;

(B) at no time shall the Effective Amount of all Revolving Loans
and Swingline Loans allocated to the Capital Expenditure Tranche exceed
$20,000,000;

(C) upon allocation to the Revolving Facility Tranche or the
Capital Expenditure Tranche, as case may be, Loans shall remain so allocated
notwithstanding any conversion or continuation of Loans pursuant to Section
2.3;

(D) the Company and each of the Banks agree that the establishment
of the Revolving Facility Tranche and the Capital Expenditure Tranche is
intended to assist the Company in its compliance with Section 8.5 and the
corresponding provisions of the Note Agreements, the 1994 Senior Note
Agreements and the Mortgage Note Agreements. Accordingly, neither the failure
by the Company to comply in any respect with this Section 2.16 nor the failure
by the Agent or any Bank to identify or remedy such noncompliance shall give
rise to any liability against the Agent or any Bank or any defense to
compliance by the Company with Section 8.5; and

(E) all Letters of Credit shall be deemed allocated to the
Revolving Facility Tranche.

Such notice of allocation shall specify (i) the effective date of
such allocation which shall not be a date earlier than the date of such notice,
(ii) the aggregate principal amount of Loans (identified by Type of Loan) and
L/C Obligations to be allocated to the Revolving Facility Tranche, the Capital
Expenditure Tranche, or both, as the case may be, and (iii) in the case of
allocations to the Capital Expenditure Tranche, the Company shall represent and
warrant that the proceeds of all Loans allocated thereto have been used solely
to finance capital improvements, expansions and additions to the Company's
property (including Timberlands), plant and equipment. The Agent will promptly
notify the Banks of such notice of allocation of Loans and L/C Obligations.

3. THE LETTERS OF CREDIT

3.1 THE LETTER OF CREDIT FACILITY

(a) On the terms and conditions set forth herein, (i) each Issuing
Bank agrees, (A) from time to time on any Business Day during the period from

Revolving Loans, Swingline Loans, and L/C Obligations exceeds the Aggregate
Commitment, (2) the Effective Amount of all Revolving Loans of such Bank plus
the participation of such Bank, if any, in the Effective Amount of all

Effective Amount of L/C Obligations exceeds the L/C Commitment. Within the
foregoing limits, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the
Company's ability to obtain Letters of Credit shall be fully revolving, and,
accordingly, the Company may, during the foregoing period, obtain Letters of
Credit to replace Letters of Credit which have expired or which have been drawn
upon and reimbursed. The Company shall be primarily liable for all obligations
hereunder and under the L/C-Related Documents with respect to any Letter of
Credit Issued for the account of the Facilities Subsidiary.

(b) Each of the Issuing Banks is under no obligation to Issue any
Letter of Credit if:

(i) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental
Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such
Issuing Bank from Issuing such Letter of Credit, or any Requirement of Law
applicable to such Issuing Bank or any request or directive (whether or not
having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over

from, the Issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in
particular or shall impose upon such Issuing Bank with respect to such Letter
of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which such
Issuing Bank is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the
Closing Date, or shall impose upon such Issuing Bank any unreimbursed loss,
cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date and which such
Issuing Bank in good ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ material to it;

(ii) such Issuing Bank has received written notice from
any Bank, the Agent or the Company, on or prior to the Business Day prior to
the requested date of Issuance of such Letter of Credit, that one or more of
the applicable conditions contained in Article V is not then satisfied;

(iii) the expiry date of any requested Letter of Credit is
(A) more than one year after the date of Issuance, unless the Majority Banks
have approved such

48
56
expiry date in writing, or (B) after the Revolving Termination Date, unless all
of the Banks have approved such expiry date in writing;

(iv) the expiry date of any requested Letter of Credit is
prior to the maturity date of any financial obligation to be supported by the
requested Letter of Credit, unless such Letter of Credit is issued in
connection with worker's compensation or to secure self- insurance deductibles
or certain payments required in connection with export log yards, or all of the
Banks have approved such expiry date in writing;

(v) any requested Letter of Credit does not provide for
drafts, or is not otherwise in form and substance reasonably acceptable to such
Issuing Bank, or the Issuance of a Letter of Credit may violate any policies of

Company and the transactions contemplated in this Agreement;

(vi) any standby Letter of Credit is for the purpose of
supporting the issuance of any letter of credit by any other Person;

(vii) such Letter of Credit is in a face amount less than
$100,000 or to be denominated in a currency other than Dollars; or

(viii) the requested Letter of Credit provides for payment
thereunder sooner than the Business Day following the presentation to such
Issuing Bank of the documentation required thereunder.

3.2 ISSUANCE, AMENDMENT AND RENEWAL OF LETTERS OF CREDIT

(a) Each Letter of Credit shall be issued upon the irrevocable
written request of the Company (or, if such Letter of Credit is to be for the
account of the Facilities Subsidiary, the joint and several irrevocable written
request of the Company and the applicable Facilities Subsidiary) received by an
Issuing Bank (with a copy sent by the Company to the Agent) at least five days
(or such shorter time as such Issuing Bank may agree in a particular instance
in its sole discretion) prior to the proposed date of issuance. Each such
request for issuance of a Letter of Credit shall be made by an original writing
or by facsimile, confirmed immediately in an original writing, in the form of
an L/C Application, and shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to such
Issuing Bank:

(i) the proposed date of issuance of the Letter of Credit
(which shall be a Business Day);

(ii) the face amount of the Letter of Credit;

(iii) the expiry date of the Letter of Credit;

49
57
(iv) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof;

(v) the documents to be presented by the beneficiary of
the Letter of Credit in case of any drawing thereunder;

(vi) the full text of any certificate to be presented by
the beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; and

(vii) such other usual and customary matters as the Issuing
Bank may require.

(b) At least three Business Days prior to the Issuance of any
Letter of Credit or any amendment or renewal of a Letter of Credit, the Issuing
Bank issuing such Letter of Credit will confirm with the Agent (by telephone or
in writing) that the Agent has received a copy of the L/C Application or L/C
Amendment Application from the Company and, if not, such Issuing Bank will
provide the Agent with a copy thereof. Unless such Issuing Bank has received
notice on or before the Business Day immediately preceding the date such
Issuing Bank is to issue, amend or renew a requested Letter of Credit from the
Agent (A) directing such Issuing Bank not to issue, amend or renew such Letter
of Credit because such issuance amendment or renewal is not then permitted
under subsection 3.1(a) as a result of the limitations set forth in clauses (1)
through (3) thereof or subsection 3.1(b)(ii); or (B) that one or more
conditions specified in Article V are not then satisfied; then, subject to the
terms and conditions hereof, such Issuing Bank shall, on the requested date,
issue a Letter of Credit for the account of the Company or amend or renew a
Letter of Credit, as the case may be, in accordance with such Issuing Bank's
usual and customary business practices.

(c) From time to time while a Letter of Credit is outstanding and
prior to the Revolving Termination Date, an Issuing Bank shall, upon the
written request of the Company received by such Issuing Bank (with a copy sent
by the Company to the Agent) at least five days (or such shorter time as such
Issuing Bank may agree in a particular instance in its sole discretion) prior
to the proposed date of amendment, amend any Letter of Credit issued by it.
Each such request for amendment of a Letter of Credit shall be made by an
original writing or by facsimile, confirmed immediately in an original writing,
made in the form of an L/C Amendment Application and shall specify in form and
detail satisfactory to such Issuing Bank:

(i) the Letter of Credit to be amended;

(ii) the proposed date of amendment of the Letter of
Credit (which shall be a Business Day);

(iii) the nature of the proposed amendment; and

50
58
(iv) such other usual and customary matters as such
Issuing Bank may require.

Such Issuing Bank shall be under no obligation to amend any Letter of Credit
if: (A) such Issuing Bank would have no obligation at such time to issue such
Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms of this Agreement; or (B)
the beneficiary of any such letter of Credit does not accept the proposed
amendment to the Letter of Credit. The Agent will promptly notify the Banks of
the receipt by it of any L/C Application or L/C Amendment Application.

(d) Each Issuing Bank and the Banks agree that, while a Letter of
Credit is outstanding and prior to the Revolving Termination Date, at the
option of the Company and upon the written request of the Company received by
an Issuing Bank (with a copy sent by the Company to the Agent) at least five
days (or such shorter time as such Issuing Bank may agree in a particular
instance in its sole discretion) prior to the proposed date of notification of
renewal, such Issuing Bank shall be entitled to authorize the automatic renewal
of any Letter of Credit issued by it. Each such request for renewal of a
Letter of Credit shall be made by an original writing or by facsimile,
confirmed immediately in an original writing, in the form of an L/C Amendment
Application, and shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to such Issuing
Bank:

(i) the Letter of Credit to be renewed;

(ii) the proposed date of notification of renewal of the
Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day);

(iii) the revised expiry date of the Letter of Credit; and

(iv) such other usual and customary matters as the Issuing
Bank may require.

Such Issuing Bank shall be under no obligation so to renew any Letter of Credit
if: (A) such Issuing Bank would have no obligation at such time to issue or
amend such Letter of Credit in its renewed form under the terms of this
Agreement; or (B) the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit does not accept
the proposed renewal of the Letter of Credit. If any outstanding Letter of
Credit shall provide that it shall be automatically renewed unless the
beneficiary thereof receives notice from such Issuing Bank that such Letter of
Credit shall not be renewed, and if at the time of renewal such Issuing Bank
would be entitled to authorize the automatic renewal of such Letter of Credit
in accordance with this subsection 3.2(d) upon the request of the Company but
such Issuing Bank shall not have received any L/C Amendment Application from
the Company with respect to such renewal or other written direction by the
Company with respect thereto, such Issuing Bank shall nonetheless be permitted
to allow such Letter of Credit to renew, and the Company

51
59
and the Banks hereby authorize such renewal, and, accordingly, such Issuing
Bank shall be deemed to have received an L/C Amendment Application from the
Company requesting such renewal.

(e) In connection with Letters of Credit that automatically renew
or extend their expiry date, each Issuing Bank may, at its election (or as
required by the Agent at the direction of the Majority Banks), deliver any
notices of termination or other communications to any Letter of Credit
beneficiary or transferee, and take any other action as necessary or
appropriate, at any time and from time to time, in order to cause the expiry
date of such Letter of Credit to be a date not later than the Revolving
Termination Date.

(f) This Agreement shall control in the event of any conflict with
any L/C-Related Document (other than any Letter of Credit).

(g) Each Issuing Bank will also deliver to the Agent, concurrently
or promptly following its delivery of a Letter of Credit, or amendment to or
renewal of a Letter of Credit, to an advising bank or a beneficiary, a true and
complete copy of each such Letter of Credit or amendment to or renewal of a
Letter of Credit.

(h) Each Issuing Bank shall deliver to the Agent such reports with
respect to the Letters of Credit as the Agent may reasonably request from time
to time.

3.3 RISK PARTICIPATIONS, DRAWINGS AND REIMBURSEMENTS

(a) Immediately upon the Issuance of each Letter of Credit, each
Bank shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to,
purchase from the Issuing Bank issuing such Letter of Credit a participation in
such Letter of Credit and each drawing thereunder in an amount equal to the
product of (i) the Commitment Percentage of such Bank, times (ii) the maximum
amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit and the amount of such
drawing, respectively. For purposes of Section 2.1, each Issuance of a Letter
of Credit shall be deemed to utilize the Commitment of each Bank by an amount
equal to the amount of such participation.

(b) In the event of any request for a drawing under a Letter of
Credit by the beneficiary or transferee thereof, the Issuing Bank which issued
such Letter of Credit will promptly notify the Company. The Company shall
reimburse such Issuing Bank, directly or with the proceeds of a Loan, prior to
10:00 a.m. (San Francisco time), on each date that any amount is paid by such
Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit (each such date, an "Honor Date"), in
an amount equal to the amount so paid by such Issuing Bank. If the Company
fails to reimburse such Issuing Bank for the full amount of any drawing under
any Letter of Credit by 10:00 a.m. (San Francisco time) on the Honor Date, such
Issuing Bank will promptly notify the Agent and the Agent will promptly notify
each Bank thereof,

52
60
and the Company shall be deemed to have requested that Base Rate Loans be made
by the Banks to be disbursed on the Honor Date under such Letter of Credit,
subject to the aggregate amount of the un-utilized portion of the Aggregate
Commitment and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 5.2. Any notice
given by such Issuing Bank or the Agent pursuant to this subsection 3.3(b) may
be oral if immediately confirmed in writing (including by facsimile); provided
that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the
conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.

(c) Each Bank shall upon any notice pursuant to subsection 3.3(b)
make available to the Agent for the account of the relevant Issuing Bank an
amount in Dollars and in immediately available funds equal to its Commitment
Percentage of the amount of the drawing, whereupon the participating Banks
shall (subject to subsection 3.3(d)) each be deemed to have made a Loan
consisting of a Base Rate Loan to the Company in that amount. If any Bank so
notified fails to make available to the Agent for the account of such Issuing
Bank the amount of such Bank's Commitment Percentage of the amount of the
drawing by no later than 12:00 noon (San Francisco time) on the Honor Date,
then interest shall accrue on such Bank's obligation to make such payment, from
the Honor Date to the date such Bank makes such payment, at a rate per annum
equal to the Federal Funds Rate in effect from time to time during such period.
The Agent will promptly give notice of the occurrence of the Honor Date, but
failure of the Agent to give any such notice on the Honor Date or in sufficient
time to enable any Bank to effect such payment on such date shall not relieve
such Bank from its obligations under this Section 3.3.

(d) With respect to any unreimbursed drawing that is not converted
into Loans consisting of Base Rate Loans to the Company in whole or in part,
because of the Company's failure to satisfy the conditions set forth in Section
5.2 or for any other reason, the Company shall be deemed to have incurred from
the relevant Issuing Bank an L/C Borrowing in the amount of such drawing, which
L/C Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and
shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus 2% per
annum, and each Bank's payment to such Issuing Bank pursuant to subsection
3.3(c) shall be deemed payment in respect of its participation in such L/C
Borrowing and shall constitute an L/C Advance from such Bank in satisfaction of
its participation obligation under this Section 3.3.

(e) Each Bank's obligation in accordance with this Agreement to
make the Loans or L/C Advances, as contemplated by this Section 3.3, as a
result of a drawing under a Letter of Credit, shall be absolute and
unconditional and without recourse to the relevant Issuing Bank and shall not
be affected by any circumstance, including (i) any set-off, counterclaim,
recoupment, defense or other right which such Bank may have against such
Issuing Bank, the Company or any

53
61
other Person for any reason whatsoever; (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a
Default, an Event of Default or a Material Adverse Effect; or (iii) any other
circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of
the foregoing; provided, however, that each Bank's obligation to make Revolving
Loans under this Section 3.3 is subject to the conditions set forth in Section
5.2.

3.4 REPAYMENT OF PARTICIPATIONS

(a) Upon (and only upon) receipt by the Agent for the account of
an Issuing Bank of immediately available funds from the Company (i) in
reimbursement of any payment made by such Issuing Bank under the Letter of
Credit with respect to which any Bank has paid the Agent for the account of
such Issuing Bank for such Bank's participation in the Letter of Credit
pursuant to Section 3.3 or (ii) in payment of interest thereon, the Agent will
pay to each Bank, in the same funds as those received by the Agent for the
account of such Issuing Bank, the amount of such Bank's Commitment Percentage
of such funds, and such Issuing Bank shall receive the amount of the Commitment
Percentage of such funds of any Bank that did not so pay the Agent for the
account of such Issuing Bank.

(b) If the Agent or an Issuing Bank is required at any time to
return to the Company, or to a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian, or any
official in any Insolvency Proceeding, any portion of the payments made by the
Company to the Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank pursuant to
subsection 3.4(a) in reimbursement of a payment made under the Letter of Credit
or interest or fee thereon, each Bank shall, on demand of the Agent, forthwith
return to the Agent or such Issuing Bank the amount of its Commitment
Percentage of any amounts so returned by the Agent or such Issuing Bank plus
interest thereon from the date such demand is made to the date such amounts are
returned by such Bank to the Agent or such Issuing Bank, at a rate per annum
equal to the Federal Funds Rate in effect from time to time.

3.5 ROLE OF THE ISSUING BANK

(a) Each Bank and the Company agree that, in paying any drawing
under a Letter of Credit, each of the Issuing Banks shall not have any
responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft and
certificates expressly required by the Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or
inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of
the Person executing or delivering any such document.

(b) No Agent-Related Person, the Senior Co-Agent, nor any of the
respective correspondents, participants or assignees of the Issuing Banks shall
be liable to any Bank for: (i) any action taken or omitted in connection
herewith at the request or with the approval of the Banks (including the
Majority Banks, as applicable); (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence
of gross negligence or willful

54
62
misconduct; or (iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or
enforceability of any L/C-Related Document.

(c) The Company hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions
of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of
Credit; provided, however, that this assumption is not intended to, and shall
not, preclude the Company's pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have
against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement. No
Agent-Related Person, the Senior Co- Agent, nor any of the respective
correspondents, participants or assignees of an Issuing Bank, shall be liable
or responsible for any of the matters described in clauses (i) through (vii) of
Section 3.6; provided, however, anything in such clauses to the contrary
notwithstanding, that the Company may have a claim against an Issuing Bank, and
such Issuing Bank may be liable to the Company, to the extent, but only to the
extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages
suffered by the Company which the Company proves were caused by such Issuing
Bank's willful misconduct or gross negligence or such Issuing Bank's willful or
grossly negligent failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the
presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s)
strictly complying with the terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit. In
furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing: (i) each Issuing Bank may
accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without
responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or
information to the contrary; and (ii) such Issuing Bank shall not be
responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or
assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights
or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may
prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason.

3.6 OBLIGATIONS ABSOLUTE

The obligations of the Company under this Agreement and any
L/C-Related Document to reimburse each Issuing Bank for a drawing under a
Letter of Credit, and to repay any L/C Borrowing and any drawing under a Letter
of Credit converted into Loans shall be unconditional and irrevocable, and
shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and each
such other L/C-Related Document under all circumstances, including the
following:

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement or
any L/C-Related Document;

(ii) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in
any other term of, all or any of the obligations of the Company in respect of
any Letter of Credit or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to
departure from all or any of the L/C-Related Documents;

55
63
(iii) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right
that the Company may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee
of any Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any
such transferee may be acting), the Issuing Banks or any other Person, whether
in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by
the L/C-Related Documents or any unrelated transaction;

(iv) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented
under any Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or
insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate
in any respect; or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any
document required in order to make a drawing under any Letter of Credit;

(v) any payment by an Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit
against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply
with the terms of any Letter of Credit; or any payment made by such Issuing
Bank under any Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in
bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors,
liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary
or any transferee of any Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection
with any Insolvency Proceeding;

(vi) any exchange, release or non-perfection of any collateral, or
any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any other
guarantee, for all or any of the obligations of the Company in respect of any
Letter of Credit; or

(vii) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not
similar to any of the foregoing, including any other circumstance that might
otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Company or
a guarantor.

3.7 CASH COLLATERAL PLEDGE

Upon (i) the request of the Agent, (A) if an Issuing Bank has honored
any full or partial drawing request on any Letter of Credit and such drawing
has resulted in an L/C Borrowing hereunder, or (B) if, as of the Revolving
Termination Date, any Letters of Credit may for any reason remain outstanding
and partially or wholly undrawn, or (ii) the occurrence of the circumstances
described in subsection 2.7(a) requiring the Company to Cash Collateralize
Letters of Credit, then, the Company shall immediately Cash Collateralize the
L/C Obligations in an amount equal to the L/C Obligations. The Company hereby
grants to the Agent, for the benefit of the Agent, the Issuing Banks and the
Banks, a security interest in all such cash and deposit account balances used
to Cash Collateralize the Company's obligations hereunder.

56
64
3.8 Letter of Credit Fees

(a) The Company shall pay to the Agent for the account of each of
the Banks a letter of credit fee with respect to the Letters of Credit on the
average daily maximum amount available to be drawn of the outstanding Letters
of Credit, computed on a quarterly basis in arrears on the last Business Day of
each calendar quarter based upon Letters of Credit outstanding for that quarter
as calculated by the Agent, equal to the Letter of Credit Rate. Such letter of
credit fees shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business
Day of each calendar quarter during which Letters of Credit are outstanding,
commencing on the first such quarterly date to occur after the Closing Date,
through the Revolving Termination Date (or such later date upon which the
outstanding Letters of Credit shall expire), with the final payment to be made
on the Revolving Termination Date (or such later expiration date).

(b) The Company shall pay to the Agent for the account of each
Issuing Bank a letter of credit fronting fee per annum with respect to the
outstanding Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank equal to 0.125% per
annum of the average daily maximum amount available to be drawn under such
outstanding Letters of Credit, computed on a quarterly basis in arrears on the
last Business Day of each calendar quarter based upon Letters of Credit issued
by such Issuing Bank outstanding for that quarter as calculated by the Agent.
Such fronting fees shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year and
actual days elapsed and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the
last Business Day of each calendar quarter during which Letters of Credit are
outstanding, commencing on the first such quarterly date to occur after the
Closing Date, through the Revolving Termination Date (or such later date upon
which the outstanding Letters of Credit shall expire), with the final payment
to be made on the Revolving Termination Date (or such later expiration date).

(c) The Company shall pay to each Issuing Bank from time to time
on demand the normal issuance, presentation, amendment and other processing
fees, and other standard costs and charges, of such Issuing Bank relating to
letters of credit as from time to time in effect.

3.9 UNIFORM CUSTOMS AND PRACTICE

The Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits as published
by the International Chamber of Commerce ("UCP") most recently at the time of
issuance of any Letter of Credit shall (unless otherwise expressly provided in
the Letters of Credit) apply to the Letters of Credit.

57
65
4. Taxes, Yield Protection And Illegality

4.1 TAXES

(a) Subject to subsection 4.1(g), any and all payments by the
Company to each Bank or the Agent under this Agreement shall be made free and
clear of, and without deduction or withholding for, any and all present or
future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all
liabilities with respect thereto, excluding, in the case of each Bank and the
Agent, such taxes (including income taxes or franchise taxes) as are imposed on
or measured by each Bank's net income by the jurisdiction under the laws of
which such Bank or the Agent, as the case may be, is organized or maintains a
Lending Office or any political subdivision thereof (all such non-excluded
taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities being
hereinafter referred to as "Taxes").

(b) In addition, the Company shall pay any present or future stamp
or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar
levies which arise from any payment made hereunder or from the execution,
delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or
any other Loan Documents (hereinafter referred to as "Other Taxes").

(c) Subject to subsection 4.1(g), the Company shall indemnify and
hold harmless each Bank and the Agent for the full amount of Taxes or Other
Taxes (including any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on
amounts payable under this Section 4.1) paid by the Bank or the Agent and any
liability (including penalties, interest, additions to tax and expenses)
arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other
Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. Payment under this indemnification
shall be made within 30 days from the date the Bank or the Agent makes written
demand therefor. Each Bank and the Agent, severally with respect to the
amounts received by it from the Company as indemnification under this
subsection 4.1(c), agrees upon the request of the Company and at the Company's
expense, to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a refund of any Taxes
or Other Taxes for which it received indemnification hereunder if such Taxes or
Other Taxes were incorrectly or illegally asserted.

(d) If the Company shall be required by law to deduct or withhold
any Taxes or Other Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to any
Bank or the Agent, then, subject to subsection 4.1(g):

(i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so
that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to
additional sums payable under this Section 4.1) such Bank or the Agent, as the
case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no
such deductions been made;

58
66
(ii) the Company shall make such deductions; and

(iii) the Company shall pay the full amount deducted to the
relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable
law.

(e) Within 30 days after the date of any payment by the Company of
Taxes or Other Taxes, the Company shall furnish to the Agent the original or a
certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof, or other evidence of
payment satisfactory to the Agent.

(f) Each Bank which is a foreign person (i.e., a person other than
a United States person for United States Federal income tax purposes) agrees
that:

(i) it shall, no later than the Closing Date (or, in the
case of a Bank which becomes a party hereto pursuant to Section 11.8 after the
Closing Date, the date upon which the Bank becomes a party hereto) deliver to
the Company through the Agent two accurate and complete signed originals of
Internal Revenue Service Form 4224 or any successor thereto ("Form 4224"), or
two accurate and complete signed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form
1001 or any successor thereto ("Form 1001"), as appropriate, in each case
indicating that the Bank is on the date of delivery thereof entitled to receive
payments of principal, interest and fees under this Agreement free from
withholding of United States Federal income tax;

(ii) if at any time the Bank makes any changes
necessitating a new Form 4224 or Form 1001, it shall with reasonable promptness
deliver to the Company through the Agent in replacement for, or in addition to,
the forms previously delivered by it hereunder, two accurate and complete
signed originals of Form 4224; or two accurate and complete signed originals of
Form 1001, as appropriate, in each case indicating that the Bank is on the date
of delivery thereof entitled to receive payments of principal, interest and
fees under this Agreement free from withholding of United States Federal income
tax;

(iii) it shall, before or promptly after the occurrence of
any event (including the passing of time but excluding any event mentioned in
(ii) above) requiring a change in or renewal of the most recent Form 4224 or
Form 1001 previously delivered by such Bank, deliver to the Company through the
Agent two accurate and complete original signed copies of Form 4224 or Form
1001 in replacement for the forms previously delivered by the Bank; and

(iv) it shall, promptly upon the Company's or the Agent's
reasonable request to that effect, deliver to the Company or the Agent (as the
case may be) such other forms or similar documentation as may be required from
time to time by any applicable law, treaty, rule or regulation in order to
establish such Bank's tax status for withholding purposes.

59
67
(g) The Company will not be required to pay any additional amounts
in respect of United States Federal income tax pursuant to subsection 4.1(d),
subsection 4.1(a) or subsection 4.1(c) to any Bank for the account of any
Lending Office of such Bank:

(i) if the obligation to pay such additional amounts
would not have arisen but for a failure by such Bank to comply with its
obligations under subsection 4.1(f) in respect of such Lending Office;

(ii) if such Bank shall have delivered to the Company a
Form 4224 in respect of such Lending Office pursuant to subsection 4.1(f), and
such Bank shall not at any time be entitled to exemption from deduction or
withholding of United States Federal income tax in respect of payments by the
Company hereunder for the account of such Lending Office for any reason other
than a change in United States law or regulations or in the official
interpretation of such law or regulations by any governmental authority charged
with the interpretation or administration thereof (whether or not having the
force of law) after the date of delivery of such Form 4224; or

(iii) if the Bank shall have delivered to the Company a
Form 1001 in respect of such Lending Office pursuant to subsection 4.1(f), and
such Bank shall not at any time be entitled to exemption from deduction or
withholding of United States Federal income tax in respect of payments by the
Company hereunder for the account of such Lending Office for any reason other
than a change in United States law or regulations or any applicable tax treaty
or regulations or in the official interpretation of any such law, treaty or
regulations by any governmental authority charged with the interpretation or
administration thereof (whether or not having the force of law) after the date
of delivery of such Form 1001.

(h) If, at any time, the Company requests any Bank to deliver any
forms or other documentation pursuant to subsection 4.1(f)(iv), then the
Company shall, on demand of such Bank through the Agent, reimburse such Bank
for any costs and expenses (including Attorney Costs) reasonably incurred by
such Bank in the preparation or delivery of such forms or other documentation.

(i) If the Company is required to pay additional amounts to any
Bank or the Agent pursuant to subsection 4.1(d), then such Bank shall use its
reasonable best efforts (consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions) to
change the jurisdiction of its Lending Office so as to eliminate any such
additional payment by the Company which may thereafter accrue if such change in
the judgment of such Bank is not otherwise disadvantageous to such Bank.

60
68
4.2 ILLEGALITY

(a) If any Bank shall determine that the introduction of any
Requirement of Law, or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the
interpretation or administration thereof, has made it unlawful, or that any
central bank or other Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful,
for any Bank or its Lending Office to make Offshore Rate Loans, then, on notice
thereof by the Bank to the Company through the Agent, the obligation of that
Bank to make Offshore Rate Loans shall be suspended until the Bank shall have
notified the Agent and the Company that the circumstances giving rise to such
determination no longer exist.

(b) If a Bank shall determine that it is unlawful to maintain any
Offshore Rate Loan, the Company shall prepay in full all Offshore Rate Loans of
that Bank then outstanding, together with interest accrued thereon, either on
the last day of the Interest Period thereof if the Bank may lawfully continue
to maintain such Offshore Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if the Bank
may not lawfully continue to maintain such Offshore Rate Loans, together with
any amounts required to be paid in connection therewith pursuant to Section
4.4. If the Company is required to so prepay any Offshore Rate Loan, then
concurrently with such prepayment, the Company may borrow from the affected
Bank, in the amount of such repayment, a Base Rate Loan.

(c) If the obligation of any Bank to make or maintain Offshore
Rate Loans has been so terminated or suspended, the Company may elect, by
giving notice to the Bank through the Agent that all Loans which would
otherwise be made by the Bank as Offshore Rate Loans shall be instead Base Rate
Loans.

(d) Before giving any notice to the Agent under this Section, the
affected Bank shall designate a different Lending Office with respect to its
Offshore Rate Loans if such designation will avoid the need for giving such
notice or making such demand and will not, in the judgment of the Bank, be
illegal or otherwise disadvantageous to the Bank.

4.3 INCREASED COSTS AND REDUCTION OF RETURN

(a) If any Bank shall determine that, due to either (i) the
introduction of or any change after the date hereof (other than any change by
way of imposition of or increase in reserve requirements included in the
calculation of the Offshore Rate or in respect of the assessment rate payable
by any Bank to the FDIC for insuring U.S. deposits) in or in the interpretation
of any law or regulation 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), there shall be any increase in the cost to such Bank of
agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining any Offshore Rate Loans or
participating in Letters of Credit, or, in the case of an Issuing Bank, any
increase in the cost to such Issuing Bank of agreeing to issue,

61
69
issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or of agreeing to make or making,
funding or maintaining any unpaid drawing under any Letter of Credit, then the
Company shall be liable for, and shall from time to time, upon demand therefor
by such Bank (with a copy of such demand to the Agent), pay to the Agent for
the account of such Bank, additional amounts as are sufficient to compensate
such Bank for such increased costs.

(b) If any Bank shall have determined that (i) the introduction of
any Capital Adequacy Regulation after the date hereof, (ii) any change in any
Capital Adequacy Regulation after the date hereof, (iii) any change in the
interpretation or administration of any Capital Adequacy Regulation by any
central bank or other Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or
administration thereof after the date hereof, or (iv) compliance by the Bank
(or its Lending Office) or any corporation controlling the Bank, with any
Capital Adequacy Regulation, affects or would affect the amount of capital
required or expected to be maintained by the Bank or any corporation
controlling the Bank and (taking into consideration such Bank's or such
corporation's policies with respect to capital adequacy and such Bank's desired
return on capital) determines that the amount of such capital is increased as a
consequence of its Commitment, loans, credits or obligations under this
Agreement, then, upon demand of such Bank (with a copy to the Agent), the
Company shall upon demand pay to the Bank, from time to time as specified by
the Bank, additional amounts sufficient to compensate the Bank for such
increase.

4.4 FUNDING LOSSES

The Company agrees to reimburse each Bank and to hold each Bank
harmless from any loss or expense which the Bank may sustain or incur as a
consequence of:

(a) the failure of the Company to make any payment or mandatory
prepayment of principal of any Offshore Rate Loan (including payments made
after any acceleration thereof);

(b) the failure of the Company to borrow, continue or convert a
Loan after the Company has given (or is deemed to have given) a Notice of
Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion/Continuation;

(c) the failure of the Company to make any prepayment of any Loan
after the Company has given a notice in accordance with Section 2.6;

(d) the prepayment (including pursuant to Section 2.6 or 2.7) of
an Offshore Rate Loan on a day which is not the last day of the Interest Period
with respect thereto; or

(e) the conversion pursuant to Section 2.4 of any Offshore Rate
Loan to a Base Rate Loan on a day that is not the last day of the respective
Interest Period;

62
70
including any such loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment
of funds obtained by it to maintain its Offshore Rate Loans hereunder or from
fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained.

4.5 INABILITY TO DETERMINE RATES

If the Majority Banks shall have determined that for any reason
adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Offshore Rate
for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Offshore Rate Loan
or that the Offshore Rate applicable pursuant to subsection 2.9(a) for any
requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Offshore Rate Loan does
not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Banks of funding such Loan,
the Agent will forthwith give notice of such determination to the Company and
each Bank. Thereafter, the obligation of the Banks to make or maintain
Offshore Rate Loans, as the case may be, hereunder shall be suspended until the
Agent upon the instruction of the Majority Banks revokes such notice in
writing. Upon receipt of such notice, the Company may revoke any Notice of
Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation then submitted by it. If the
Company does not revoke such notice, the Banks shall make, convert or continue
the Loans, as proposed by the Company, in the amount specified in the
applicable notice submitted by the Company, but such Loans shall be made,

The rights provided for in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents

or agreement now existing or hereafter arising.

10. THE AGENT

10.1 APPOINTMENT AND AUTHORIZATION

(a) Each Bank and each Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably (subject to
Section 10.9) appoints, designates and authorizes the Agent to take such action
on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan
Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly
delegated to it by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document,
together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, including,
without limitation, to enter into Cash Collateral Account Agreements from time
to time in accordance with this Agreement, and to release funds to the Company
in accordance with Section 1(b) of the Cash Collateral Account Agreement and,
if applicable, pursuant to an Officer's Certificate substantially in the form
attached thereto as Exhibit A. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary
contained elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, the Agent
shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth
herein, nor shall the Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary
relationship with any Bank or any Issuing Bank, and no implied covenants,
functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read
into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against the
Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing

100
108
sentence, the use of the term "agent" in this Agreement with reference to the
Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express)
obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such
term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or
reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting
parties.

(b) Each Issuing Bank shall act on behalf of the Banks with
respect to any Letters of Credit Issued by it and the documents associated
therewith until such time and except for so long as the Agent may agree at the
request of the Majority Banks to act for such Issuing Bank with respect
thereto; provided, however, that each Issuing Bank shall have all of the
benefits and immunities (i) provided to the Agent in this Article X with
respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by such Issuing Bank in
connection with Letters of Credit Issued by it or proposed to be Issued by it
and the application and agreements for letters of credit pertaining to the
Letters of Credit as fully as if the term "Agent," as used in this Article X,
included such Issuing Bank with respect to such acts or omissions, and (ii) as
additionally provided in this Agreement with respect to the Issuing Banks.

10.2 DELEGATION OF DUTIES

The Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any
other Loan Document by or through agents, employees or attorneys- in-fact and
shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to
such duties. The Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or
misconduct of any agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects with reasonable
care.

10.3 LIABILITY OF AGENT

None of the Agent-Related Persons shall (i) be liable for any action
taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this
Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby
(except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct), or (ii) be
responsible in any manner to any of the Banks for any recital, statement,
representation or warranty made by the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate
of the Company, or any officer thereof, contained in this Agreement or in any
other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document
referred to or provided for in, or received by the Agent under or in connection
with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the validity,
effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or
any other Loan Document, or for any failure of the Company or any other party
to any Loan Document to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. No
Agent-Related Person shall be under any obligation to any Bank to ascertain or
to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements
contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan

101
109
Document, or to inspect the Properties, books or records of the Company or any
of the Company's Subsidiaries or Affiliates.

10.4 RELIANCE BY AGENT

(a) The Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully
protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, consent,
certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex or telephone
message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be
genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person
or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel
to the Company), independent accountants and other experts selected by the
Agent. The Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any
action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first
receive such advice or concurrence of the Majority Banks as it deems
appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its
satisfaction by the Banks against any and all liability and expense which may
be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action.
The Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining
from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with
a request or consent of the Majority Banks and such request and any action
taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all of the
Banks.

(b) For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions
specified in Section 5.1, each Bank that has executed this Agreement shall be
deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, each
document or other matter either sent or made available by the Agent to such
Bank for consent, approval, acceptance or satisfaction, or required thereunder
to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to the Bank,
unless an officer of the Agent responsible for the transactions contemplated by
the Loan Documents shall have received notice from the Bank prior to the
initial Credit Extension specifying its objection thereto and either such
objection shall not have been withdrawn by notice to the Agent to that effect
or the Bank shall not have made available to the Agent the Bank's ratable
portion of such Credit Extension.

10.5 NOTICE OF DEFAULT

The Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the
occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, except with respect to defaults
in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to the Agent
for the account of the Banks, unless the Agent shall have received written
notice from a Bank or the Company referring to this Agreement, describing such
Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a "notice of
default". The Agent will notify the Banks of its receipt of any such notice.
The Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of
Default as may be requested by the Majority

102
110
Banks in accordance with Article IX; provided, however, that unless and until
the Agent has received any such request, the Agent may (but shall not be
obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with
respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable or in
the best interest of the Banks.

10.6 CREDIT DECISION

Each Bank expressly acknowledges that none of the Agent-Related
Persons has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by the
Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Company and
its Subsidiaries, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty
by any Agent-Related Person to any Bank. Each Bank represents to the Agent
that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person
and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made
its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, prospects,
operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the
Company and its Subsidiaries, and all applicable bank regulatory laws relating
to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter
into this Agreement and to extend credit to the Company hereunder. Each Bank
also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any
Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it shall
deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis,
appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems
necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property,
financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Company. Except for
notices, reports and other documents expressly herein required to be furnished
to the Banks by the Agent, the Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility
to provide any Bank with any credit or other information concerning the
business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or
creditworthiness of the Company which may come into the possession of any of
the Agent-Related Persons.

10.7 INDEMNIFICATION OF AGENT

Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated,
the Banks shall indemnify upon demand the Agent-Related Persons (to the extent
not reimbursed by or on behalf of the Company and without limiting the
obligation of the Company to do so), pro rata from and against any and all
Indemnified Liabilities; provided, however, that no Bank shall be liable for
the payment to the Agent-Related Persons of any portion of such Indemnified
Liabilities resulting from such Person's gross negligence or willful
misconduct. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Bank shall reimburse the
Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses
(including reasonable Attorney Costs) incurred by the Agent in connection with
the preparation,

103
111
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, any
other Loan Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to
the extent that the Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf
of the Company. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if the
Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority of the United
States or other jurisdiction asserts a claim that the Agent did not properly
withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Bank hereunder
(because the appropriate form was not delivered, was not properly executed, or
because such Bank failed to notify the Agent of a change in circumstances which
rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax ineffective, or
for any other reason) such Bank shall indemnify the Agent fully for all amounts
paid, directly or indirectly, by the Agent as tax or otherwise, including
penalties and interest, and including any taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on
the amounts payable to the Agent under this Section, together with all costs
and expenses and attorneys' fees (including reasonable Attorney Costs). The
undertaking in this Section shall survive the payment of all Obligations
hereunder and the resignation or replacement of the Agent.

10.8 AGENT IN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY

BofA, NationsBank,N.A., and any of their respective Affiliates may
make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits
from, acquire equity interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking,
trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with the Company and
its Subsidiaries and Affiliates as though neither BofA nor NationsBank, N.A.
was the Agent and the Senior Co- Agent, respectively, the Swingline Bank or an
Issuing Bank hereunder and without notice to or consent of the Banks. The
Banks acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, BofA or its Affiliates may
receive information regarding the Company or its Affiliates (including
information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of the
Company or such Subsidiary) and acknowledge that the Agent shall be under no
obligation to provide such information to them. With respect to its Loans and
participation in Letters of Credit, each of BofA and NationsBank, N.A. shall
have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Bank and may
exercise the same as though it were not the Agent or the Senior Co-Agent, as
the case may be, and the terms "Bank" and "Banks" shall include each of BofA
and NationsBank, N.A. in its individual capacity.

10.9 SUCCESSOR AGENT

The Agent may, and at the request of the Majority Banks shall, resign
as Agent upon 30 days' notice to the Banks. If the Agent resigns under this
Agreement, the Majority Banks shall appoint from among the Banks a successor
agent for the Banks. If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective
date of the

104
112
resignation of the Agent, the Agent may appoint, after consulting with the
Banks and the Company, a successor agent from among the Banks. Upon the
acceptance of its appointment as successor agent hereunder, such successor
agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Agent
and the term "Agent" shall mean such successor agent and the retiring Agent's
appointment, powers and duties as Agent shall be terminated. After any
retiring Agent's resignation hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this Article
X and Sections 11.4 and 11.5 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken
or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement. If no
successor agent has accepted appointment as Agent by the date which is 30 days
following a retiring Agent's notice of resignation, the retiring Agent's
resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Banks shall
perform all of the duties of the Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as
the Majority Banks appoint a successor agent as provided for above.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, BofA may not be removed as the Agent at
the request of the Majority Banks unless BofA shall also simultaneously be
replaced as an "Issuing Bank" hereunder pursuant to documentation in form and
substance satisfactory to BofA.

10.10 SENIOR CO-AGENT

The Bank identified on the facing page or signature pages of this
Agreement as a "senior co-agent" shall have no right, power, obligation,
liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than those
applicable to all Banks as such. Each Bank acknowledges that it has not
relied, and will not rely, on the Bank so identified in deciding to enter into
this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder.

11. MISCELLANEOUS

11.1 AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS

No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other
Loan Document, and no consent with respect to any departure by the Company
therefrom, shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by
the Majority Banks, the Company and acknowledged by the Agent, and then such
waiver shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific
purpose for which given; provided, however, that no such waiver, amendment, or
consent shall, unless in writing and signed by all the Banks, the Company and
acknowledged by the Agent, do any of the following:

Commitment of the Swingline Bank (or reinstate any such Commitment terminated
pursuant to subsection 9.2(a)), including, without limitation, any amendment to

waiver of subsection 2.7(b) or any other provision providing for a mandatory
commitment reduction, or subject any Bank to any additional obligations;

(b) postpone or delay any date fixed for any payment of principal,
interest, fees or other amounts due to the Banks (or any of them) hereunder or

unpaid principal amount of the Loans which shall be required for the Banks or
any of them to take any action hereunder; or

providing for consent or other action by all Banks;

and, provided further that (i) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in
writing signed by the relevant Issuing Bank in addition to the Majority Banks
or all the Banks, as the case may be, affect the rights or duties of such
Issuing Bank under this Agreement or any L/C-Related Document relating to any
Letter of Credit Issued or to be Issued by it, (ii) no amendment, waiver or
consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Agent in addition to the
Majority Banks or all the Banks, as the case may be, affect the rights or
duties of the Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (iii) no
amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the
Swingline Bank in addition to the Majority Banks or all the Banks, as the case
may be, affect the rights or duties of the Swingline Bank under this Agreement
or any other Loan Document, and (iv) the fee letter between the Company and
BofA may be amended, or rights and privileges thereunder waived, in a writing
executed by the parties thereto.

otherwise provides, by facsimile transmission, provided that any matter
transmitted by the Company by facsimile (i) shall be immediately confirmed by a
telephone call to the recipient at the number specified on Schedule 11.2, and
(ii) shall be followed promptly by a hard copy original thereof) and mailed,
faxed or delivered, to the address or facsimile number specified for notices on
Schedule 11.2; or, as directed to the Company or the Agent, to such other
address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other
parties, and as directed to each other party, at such other address as shall be

transmitted by overnight delivery, or faxed, be effective when delivered for
overnight (next-day) delivery, or transmitted by facsimile machine,
respectively, or if mailed, upon the third Business Day after the date
deposited into the U.S. mail, or if delivered, upon delivery; except that,
notwithstanding the foregoing, notices pursuant to Article III to an Issuing
Bank shall not be effective until actually received by the Issuing Bank at the
address specified for the "Issuing Bank" on Schedule 11.2, and notices to the
Company or the Agent shall not be effective until actually received by the
Company or the Agent, respectively.

(c) The Company acknowledges and agrees that any agreement of the
Agent, the Issuing Banks, and the Banks at Article II and Article III herein to
receive certain notices by telephone and facsimile is solely for the
convenience and at the request of the Company. The Agent, the Issuing Banks,
and the Banks shall be entitled to rely on the authority of any Person
purporting to be a Person authorized by the Company to give such notice and the
Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Banks shall not have any liability to the
Company or other Person on account of any action taken or not taken by the
Agent, the Issuing Banks or the Banks in reliance upon such telephonic or
facsimile notice. The obligation of the Company to repay the Loans and L/C
Obligations shall not be affected in any way or to any extent by any failure by
the Agent, the Issuing Banks, and the Banks to receive written confirmation of
any telephonic or facsimile notice or the receipt by the Agent, the Issuing
Banks and the Banks of a confirmation which is at variance with the terms
understood by the Agent, the Issuing Banks, and the Banks to be contained in
the telephonic or facsimile notice.

11.3 NO WAIVER; CUMULATIVE REMEDIES

No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of the
Agent or any Bank, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder, shall
operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any
right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further
exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or
privilege.

11.4 COSTS AND EXPENSES

The Company shall, whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby
shall be consummated:

(a) pay or reimburse BofA (including in its capacity as Agent) and
the Arranger within five Business Days after demand (subject to subsection
5.1(e)) for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by BofA (including in
its capacity as Agent) or Arranger in connection with the development,
preparation, delivery, administration and execution of, and any amendment,
supplement, waiver or modification to (in each case, whether or not
consummated), this Agreement, any

107
115
Loan Document and any other documents prepared in connection herewith or
therewith, the initial assignments by BofA of its Loans and Commitments
hereunder, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and
thereby, including expenses of outside experts, printing costs, and the
reasonable Attorney Costs incurred by BofA (including in its capacity as Agent)
or Arranger with respect thereto; provided, however, that this subsection (a)
shall not apply to any such costs and expenses incurred by BofA after any date
that BofA is no longer the Agent hereunder and after any such date any
references in this subsection (a) to BofA shall be deemed a reference to the
successor Agent; and

(b) pay or reimburse each Bank, the Agent, and the Arranger within
five Business Days after demand (subject to subsection 5.1(e)) for all costs
and expenses incurred by them in connection with the enforcement, attempted

with any "workout" or restructuring regarding the Loans, and including in any
Insolvency Proceeding or appellate proceeding) under this Agreement, any other
Loan Document, and any such other documents, including Attorney Costs and
appraisal (including the allocated cost of internal appraisal services), audit,
environmental inspection and review (including the allocated cost of such
internal services), and search and filing costs, fees and expenses, incurred by
the Agent, the Arranger and any Bank.

11.5 INDEMNITY

Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby shall be
consummated: The Company shall pay, indemnify, and hold each Bank, the Agent,
and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, counsel, agents
and attorneys-in-fact (each, an "Indemnified Person") harmless from and against
any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, claims, damages, penalties,
actions, judgments, suits, costs, charges, expenses or disbursements (including
reasonable Attorney Costs) of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the
execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of this
Agreement, any Loan Documents, or the transactions contemplated hereby and
thereby, and with respect to any investigation, litigation or proceeding
(including any Insolvency Proceeding or appellate proceeding) related to this
Agreement, or the Loans or the Letters of Credit or the use of the proceeds
thereof, whether or not any Indemnified Person is a party thereto (all the
foregoing, collectively, the "Indemnified Liabilities"); provided that the
Company shall have no obligation hereunder to any Indemnified Person with
respect to Indemnified Liabilities arising from the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of such Indemnified Person. The agreements in this Section shall
survive payment of all other Obligations.

108
116
11.6 Marshalling; Payments Set Aside

Neither the Agent nor the Banks shall be under any obligation to
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ any assets in favor of the Company or any other Person or against or
in payment of any or all of the Obligations. To the extent that the Company
makes a payment or payments to the Agent or the Banks, or the Agent or the
Banks enforce their Liens or exercise their rights of set-off, and such payment
or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or set-off or any part thereof
are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set
aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the
Agent in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party
in connection with any Insolvency Proceeding, or otherwise, then (a) to the
extent of such recovery the obligation or part thereof originally intended to
be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such
payment had not been made or such enforcement or set-off had not occurred, and
(b) each Bank severally agrees to pay to the Agent upon demand its ratable
share of the total amount so recovered from or repaid by the Agent.

11.7 SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS

The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to
the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns,
except that the Company may not assign or transfer any of its rights or
obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Agent
and each Bank.

11.8 ASSIGNMENTS, PARTICIPATIONS, ETC.

(a) Any Bank may, with the written consent of the Company at all
times other than during the existence of an Event of Default and the Agent,
which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, at any time
assign and delegate to one or more Eligible Assignees (each, an "Assignee")
(provided that no written consent of the Company or the Agent shall be required
in connection with any assignment and delegation by a Bank to an Eligible
Assignee that is an Affiliate of such Bank) all or any ratable part of all of
the Loans, the Commitments, the L/C Obligations and all other rights and
obligations of such Bank hereunder; provided, however, that (i) no assignment
shall in any event be less than $10,000,000 of the Commitment of the assigning
Bank under this Agreement unless as a result of such assignment the assigning
Bank's rights and obligations hereunder shall be reduced to zero; (ii) if a
Bank assigns less than all of its rights and obligations hereunder, such Bank's
aggregate remaining Commitment, after giving effect to such assignment, shall
not be less than $10,000,000; and (iii) the Company and the Agent may continue
to deal solely and directly with such Bank in connection with the interest so
assigned to an Assignee until (A) written notice of such assignment, together
with payment instructions, addresses and related information with respect to
the Assignee, shall have been given to the Company and the Agent by such Bank
and the Assignee; (B) such Bank and its Assignee shall have delivered to the
Company and the Agent an Assignment and Acceptance

109
117
in the form of Exhibit F ("Assignment and Acceptance") and (C) the assignor
Bank or Assignee has paid to the Agent a processing fee in the amount of
$3,500. In connection with any assignment by BofA, its Swingline Commitment
may be in whole but not in part included as part of the assignment transaction,
and the Assignment and Acceptance may be appropriately modified to include an
assignment and delegation of its Swingline Commitment and any outstanding
Swingline Loans.

(b) From and after the date that the Agent notifies the assignor
Bank that it has received (and provided its consent with respect to) an
executed Assignment and Acceptance and payment of the above-referenced
processing fee, (i) the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the
extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant
to such Assignment and Acceptance, shall have the rights and obligations of a
Bank under the Loan Documents, and (ii) the assignor Bank shall, to the extent
that rights and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents have
been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its
rights and be released from its obligations under the Loan Documents.

(c) Immediately upon each Assignee's making its processing fee
payment under the Assignment and Acceptance, this Agreement shall be deemed to
be amended to the extent, but only to the extent, necessary to reflect the
addition of the Assignee and the resulting adjustment of the Commitment arising
therefrom. The Commitment allocated to each Assignee shall reduce such
Commitment of the assigning Bank pro tanto.

(d) Any Bank may at any time sell to one or more commercial banks
or other Persons not Affiliates of the Company (a "Participant") participating
interests in any of the Loans, the Commitment of that Bank and the other
interests of that Bank (the "originating Bank") hereunder and under the other
Loan Documents; provided, however, that (i) the originating Bank's obligations
under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) the originating Bank shall
remain solely responsible for the performance of such obligations, (iii) the
Company, the Issuing Banks and the Agent shall continue to deal solely and
directly with the originating Bank in connection with the originating Bank's
rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and
(iv) no Bank shall transfer or grant any participating interest under which the
Participant shall have rights to approve any amendment to, or any consent or
waiver with respect to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except to
the extent such amendment, consent or waiver would require unanimous consent of
the Banks as described in the first proviso to Section 11.1. In the case of
any such participation, the Participant shall be entitled to the benefit of
Sections 4.1, 4.3 and 11.5 as though it were also a Bank hereunder, and if
amounts outstanding under this Agreement are due and unpaid, or shall have been
declared or shall have become due and payable upon the occurrence of an

110
118
Event of Default, each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of set-off
in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement
to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing
directly to it as a Bank under this Agreement.

(e) Each Bank agrees to take normal and reasonable precautions and
exercise due care to maintain the confidentiality of all information identified
as "confidential" by the Company and provided to it by the Company or any
Subsidiary of the Company, or by the Agent on such Company's or Subsidiary's
behalf, in connection with this Agreement or any Loan Document, and neither it
nor any of its Affiliates shall use any such information for any purpose or in
any manner other than pursuant to the terms contemplated by this Agreement;
provided, however, that any Bank may disclose such information (A) to the
extent that such information was or becomes generally available to the public
other than as a result of a disclosure by the Bank; (B) to the extent such
information was or becomes available to such Bank to whom it was furnished on a
non-confidential basis; (C) at the request or pursuant to any requirement of
any Governmental Authority to which the Bank is subject or in connection with
an examination of such Bank by any such authority; (D) pursuant to subpoena or
other court process; (E) when required to do so in accordance with the
provisions of any applicable Requirement of Law; (F) to the extent reasonably
required in connection with any litigation or proceeding to which the Agent,
any Bank or their respective Affiliates may be party; (G) to the extent
reasonably required in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder or
under any other Loan Document; (H) to such Bank's independent auditors and
other professional advisors and (I) to such Bank's Affiliates. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Company authorizes each Bank to disclose to any Participant
or Assignee (each, a "Transferee") and to any prospective Transferee, such
financial and other information in such Bank's possession concerning the
Company or its Subsidiaries which has been delivered to the Agent or the Banks
pursuant to this Agreement or which has been delivered to the Agent or the
Banks by the Company in connection with the Banks' credit evaluation of the
Company prior to entering into this Agreement; provided that, unless otherwise
agreed by the Company, such Transferee agrees in writing to such Bank to keep
such information confidential to the same extent required of the Banks
hereunder.

(f) Notwithstanding any other provision contained in this
Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary, any Bank may assign all
or any portion of the Loans held by it to any Federal Reserve Bank or the
United States Treasury as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A of the
Federal Reserve Board and any Operating Circular issued by such Federal Reserve
Bank, provided that any payment in respect of such assigned Loans made by the
Company to or for the account of the assigning or pledging Bank in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement shall satisfy the Company's obligations
hereunder in respect to such

111
119
assigned Loans to the extent of such payment. No such assignment shall release
the assigning Bank from its obligations hereunder.

11.9 SET-OFF

In addition to any rights and remedies of the Banks provided by law,
if an Event of Default exists, each Bank is authorized at any time and from
time to time, without prior notice to the Company, any such notice being waived
by the Company to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any
and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at
any time held by, and other indebtedness at any time owing to, such Bank and
any of its Affiliates to or for the credit or the account of the Company
against any and all Obligations owing to such Bank, now or hereafter existing,
irrespective of whether or not the Agent or such Bank shall have made demand
under this Agreement or any Loan Document and although such Obligations may be
contingent or unmatured. Each Bank agrees promptly to notify the Company and
the Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Bank; provided,
however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of
such set-off and application. The rights of each Bank under this Section 11.9
are in addition to the other rights and remedies (including other rights of
set-off) which the Bank may have.

11.10 AUTOMATIC DEBITS OF FEES

With respect to any commitment fee, facility fee, letter of credit fee
or other fee, or any other cost or expense (including Attorney Costs) due and
payable to the Agent, the Issuing Banks, the Swingline Bank or BofA under the
Loan Documents, the Company hereby irrevocably authorizes BofA to debit any
deposit account of the Company with BofA in an amount such that the aggregate
amount debited from all such deposit accounts does not exceed such fee or other
cost or expense. If there are insufficient funds in such deposit accounts to
cover the amount of the fee or other cost or expense then due, such debits will
be reversed (in whole or in part, in BofA's sole discretion) and such amount
not debited shall be deemed to be unpaid. No such debit under this Section
11.10 shall be deemed a setoff.

11.11 NOTIFICATION OF ADDRESSES, LENDING OFFICES, ETC.

Each Bank shall notify the Agent in writing of any changes in the
address to which notices to the Bank should be directed, of addresses of its
Offshore Lending Office, of payment instructions in respect of all payments to
be made to it hereunder and of such other administrative information as the
Agent shall reasonably request.

112
120
11.12 Counterparts

This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this
Agreement in any number of separate counterparts, each of which, when so
executed, shall be deemed an original, and all of said counterparts taken
together shall be deemed to constitute but one and the same instrument. A set
of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties shall be lodged with
the Company and the Agent.

11.13 SEVERABILITY

The illegality or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement
or any instrument or agreement required hereunder shall not in any way affect
or impair the legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this
Agreement or any instrument or agreement required hereunder.

11.14 NO THIRD PARTIES BENEFITED

This Agreement is made and entered into for the sole protection and
legal benefit of the Company, the Banks, the Issuing Banks, the Swingline Bank,
the Senior Co-Agent, and the Agent, and their permitted successors and assigns,
and no other Person shall be a direct or indirect legal beneficiary of, or have
any direct or indirect cause of action or claim in connection with, this
Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. Neither the Agent, the Senior
Co-Agent, the Swingline Bank, the Issuing Bank nor any Bank shall have any
obligation to any Person not a party to this Agreement or other Loan Documents.

11.15 TIME

Time is of the essence as to each term or provision of this Agreement
and each of the other Loan Documents.

11.16 GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION

THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH,
THE LAW OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA; PROVIDED THAT THE AGENT AND THE BANKS SHALL
RETAIN ALL RIGHTS ARISING UNDER FEDERAL LAW.

11.17 ARBITRATION; REFERENCE

(a) Mandatory Arbitration. Any controversy or claim between or
among the parties, including but not limited to those arising out of or
relating to this Agreement or any agreements or instruments relating hereto or
delivered in connection herewith and any claim based on or arising from an
alleged tort, shall at

113
121
the request of any party be determined by arbitration. The arbitration shall be
conducted in accordance with the United States Arbitration Act (Title 9, U.S.
Code), notwithstanding any choice of law provision in this Agreement, and under
the Commercial Rules of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"). The
arbitrator(s) shall give effect to applicable statutes of limitation in
determining any claim. Any controversy concerning whether an issue is
arbitrable shall be determined by the arbitrator(s). Judgment upon the
arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The
institution and maintenance of an action for judicial relief or pursuit of a
provisional or ancillary remedy shall not constitute a waiver of the right of
any party, including the plaintiff, to submit the controversy or claim to
arbitration if any other party contests such action for judicial relief.

(b) Judicial Reference. At the request of any party a controversy
or claim which is not submitted to arbitration as provided and limited in
subparagraph (a) shall be determined by a reference in accordance with
California Code of Civil Procedure Section 638 et seq. If such an election is
made, the parties shall designate to the court a referee or referees selected
under the auspices of the AAA in the same manner as arbitrators are selected in
AAA-sponsored proceedings. The presiding referee of the panel, or the referee
if there is a single referee, shall be an active attorney or retired judge.
Judgment upon the award rendered by such referee or referees shall be entered
