24
-18-

between the Closing Date and the Maturity Date, upon notice by the Borrower

Commitment Percentage of the Syndicated Loans as are requested by the

Commitment minus the aggregate amount of Competitive Bid Loans outstanding
at such time.

(b) Each request for a Loan or Letter of Credit hereunder

SECTION 2.2 FACILITY FEE; UTILIZATION FEE.

(a) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for

quarter (or such lesser period of time as has elapsed since the Closing
Date), commencing October 1, 1997 with a final payment on the Maturity Date
(or on the date of termination in full of the Total Commitment if earlier).

accordance with each Bank's Commitment Percentage.
25
-19-

time to time upon three (3) Business Days' prior written notice to the
Administrative Agent to reduce by $25,000,000 or a greater amount or
terminate entirely, the Total Commitment, whereupon each Bank's Commitment
shall be reduced pro rata in accordance with such Bank's Commitment
Percentage of the amount specified in such notice or, as the case may be,
terminated provided that at no time may (i) the Total Commitment be reduced
to an amount less than the sum of (A) the Maximum Drawing Amount of all
Letters of Credit, and (B) all Loans then outstanding.

(b) No reduction or termination of the Total Commitment once
made may be revoked; the portion of the Total Commitment reduced or
terminated may not be reinstated; and amounts in respect of such reduced or
terminated portion may not be reborrowed.

(c) The Administrative Agent will notify the Banks promptly
after receiving any notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this

Agreement.

SECTION 2.4 THE SYNDICATED NOTES.

(a) The Syndicated Loans shall be evidenced by separate
promissory notes of the Borrower in substantially the form of Exhibit A
hereto (each, a "Syndicated Note"), dated as of the Closing Date and
completed with appropriate insertions. One Syndicated Note shall be
payable to the order of each Bank in an amount equal to its maximum
Commitment, and shall represent the obligation of the Borrower to pay such
Bank such principal amount or, if less, the outstanding principal amount of
all Syndicated Loans made by such Bank, plus interest accrued thereon, as
set forth herein. Notwithstanding the initial face amounts of the
Syndicated Notes, the Total Commitment shall not exceed $1,700,000,000
prior to the United Joinder Date.

(b) The Borrower irrevocably authorizes each Bank to make, or
cause to be made, in connection with a Drawdown Date of any Syndicated Loan
and at the time of receipt of any payment of principal on its Syndicated
Note, an appropriate notation on such Bank's records or on the schedule
attached to such Bank's Syndicated Note or a continuation of such schedule
attached thereto reflecting the making of such Loan, or the receipt of such
payment (as the case may be) and each Bank may, prior to any transfer of
its Syndicated Note endorse on the reverse side thereof the outstanding
principal amount of such Loans evidenced thereby. The outstanding amount
of the Loans set forth on such Bank's records shall be
26
-20-

prima facie evidence of the principal amount thereof owing and unpaid to
such Bank, but the failure to record, or any error in so recording, any
such amount shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the
Borrower hereunder or under such Notes to make payments of principal of or
interest on any such Notes when due.

SECTION 2.5 INTEREST ON LOANS.

(a) The outstanding principal amount of the Syndicated Loans
shall bear interest at the rate per annum equal to (i) the Base Rate on
Base Rate Loans, (ii) the Applicable Eurodollar Rate on Eurodollar Loans
and (iii) the Applicable Swing Line Rate on Swing Line Loans.

(b) Interest shall be payable (i) monthly in arrears on the
first Business Day of each month, commencing September 1, 1997, on Base
Rate Loans, (ii) on the last day of the applicable Interest Period, and if
such Interest Period is longer than three months, also on the last day of
the third month following the commencement of such Interest Period, on
Eurodollar Loans, and (iii) on the Maturity Date for all Loans.

SECTION 2.6 REQUESTS FOR SYNDICATED LOANS.

(a) The Borrower shall give to the Administrative Agent
written notice in the form of Exhibit D hereto (or telephonic notice confirmed
in writing or a facsimile in the form of Exhibit D hereto) of each Syndicated
Loan requested hereunder (a "Syndicated Loan Request") not later than (a) 11:00
a.m. (New York time) on the proposed Drawdown Date of any Base Rate Loan, or
(b) 11:00 a.m. (New York time) three (3) Eurodollar Business Days prior to the
proposed Drawdown Date of any Eurodollar Loan. Each such Syndicated Loan
Request shall specify (A) the principal amount of the Syndicated Loan
requested, (B) the proposed Drawdown Date of such Syndicated Loan, (C) whether
such Syndicated Loan requested is to be a Base Rate Loan or a Eurodollar Loan,
and (D) the Interest Period for such Syndicated Loan, if a Eurodollar Loan.
Each Syndicated Loan requested shall be in a minimum amount of $10,000,000.
Each such Syndicated Loan Request shall reflect the Maximum Drawing Amount of
all Letters of Credit outstanding and the amount of all Loans outstanding
(including Competitive Bid Loans and Swing Line Loans). Syndicated Loan
Requests made hereunder shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower, and
shall obligate the Borrower to accept the Syndicated Loan requested from the
Banks on the proposed Drawdown Date.

(b) Each of the representations and warranties made by the
Borrower to the Banks or the Administrative Agent in this Agreement or any
other Loan Document shall be true and correct in all material respects when
made and shall, for all purposes of this Agreement, be deemed to be repeated by
the Borrower on and as of the date of the submission of a Syndicated Loan
Request,
27
-21-

Competitive Bid Quote Request, or Letter of Credit Application and on and as of
the Drawdown Date of any Loan or the date of issuance of any Letter of Credit
(except to the extent (i) of changes resulting from transactions contemplated
or permitted by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (ii) of changes
occurring in the ordinary course of business that singly or in the aggregate
are not materially adverse to the business, assets or financial condition of
the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as a whole, or (iii) that such
representations and warranties expressly relate only to an earlier date).

(c) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Bank
of each Syndicated Loan Request received by the Administrative Agent (i) on the
proposed Drawdown Date of any Base Rate Loan, or (ii) three (3) Eurodollar
Business Days prior to the proposed Drawdown Date of any Eurodollar Loan.

SECTION 2.7 ELECTION OF EURODOLLAR RATE; NOTICE OF ELECTION; INTEREST
PERIODS; MINIMUM AMOUNTS.

(a) At the Borrower's option, so long as no Default or Event
of Default has occurred and is then continuing, the Borrower may (i) elect
to convert any Base Rate Loan or a portion thereof to a Eurodollar Loan,
(ii) at the time of any Syndicated Loan Request, specify that such
requested Loan shall be a Eurodollar Loan, or (iii) upon expiration of the
applicable Interest Period, elect to maintain an existing Eurodollar Loan
as such, provided that the Borrower give notice to the Administrative Agent
pursuant to Section 2.7(b) hereof. Upon determining any Eurodollar Rate,
the Administrative Agent shall forthwith provide notice thereof to the
Borrower and the Banks, and each such notice to the Borrower shall be
considered prima facie correct and binding, absent manifest error.

(b) Three (3) Eurodollar Business Days prior to the making of
any Eurodollar Loan or the conversion of any Base Rate Loan to a Eurodollar
Loan, or, in the case of an outstanding Eurodollar Loan, the expiration
date of the applicable Interest Period, the Borrower shall give written,
telex or facsimile notice received by the Administrative Agent not later
than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) of its election pursuant to Section 2.7(a).
Each such notice delivered to the Administrative Agent shall specify the
aggregate principal amount of the Syndicated Loans to be borrowed or
maintained as or converted to Eurodollar Loans and the requested duration
of the Interest Period that will be applicable to such Eurodollar Loan, and
shall be irrevocable and binding upon the Borrower. If the Borrower shall
fail to give the Administrative Agent notice of its election hereunder
together with all of the other information required by this Section 2.7(b)
with respect to any Syndicated Loan, whether at the end of an Interest
Period or otherwise, such Syndicated Loan shall be deemed a Base Rate Loan.
The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the
28
-22-

Banks in writing (or by telephone confirmed in writing or by facsimile) of
such election.

(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the
Borrower may not specify an Interest Period that would extend beyond the
Maturity Date.

(d) No conversion of Loans pursuant to this Section 2.7 may
result in Eurodollar Loans that are less than $5,000,000. In no event
shall the Borrower have more than eight (8) different Interest Periods for
borrowings of Eurodollar Loans outstanding at any time.

(e) Subject to the terms and conditions of Section 5.8 hereof,
if any affected Bank demands compensation under Section 5.5(c) or (d) with
respect to any Eurodollar Loan, the Borrower may at any time, upon at least
three (3) Business Days' prior written notice to the applicable
Administrative Agent, elect to convert such Eurodollar Loan into a Base
Rate Loan (on which interest and principal shall be payable
contemporaneously with the related Eurodollar Loans of the other Banks).
Thereafter, and until such time as the affected Bank notifies the
Administrative Agent that the circumstances giving rise to the demand for
compensation under Section 5.5(c) or (d) no longer exist, all requests for
Eurodollar Loans from such affected Bank shall be deemed to be requests for
Base Rate Loans. Once the affected Bank notifies the Administrative Agent
that such circumstances no longer exist, the Borrower may elect that the
principal amount of each such Loan converted hereunder shall again bear
interest as Eurodollar Loans beginning on the first day of the next
succeeding Interest Period applicable to the related Eurodollar Loans of
the other Banks.

SECTION 2.8 FUNDS FOR SYNDICATED LOANS. Not later than 1:00 p.m. (New
York time) on the proposed Drawdown Date (a) in the case of Syndicated Loans,
each of the Banks will make available to the Administrative Agent at its Head
Office, in immediately available funds, the amount of its Commitment Percentage
of the amount of the requested Loan. Upon receipt from each Bank of such
amount, and upon receipt of the documents required by Section 10 and Section 11
and the satisfaction of the other conditions set forth therein, the
Administrative Agent will make available to the Borrower the aggregate amount
of such Syndicated Loans made available by the Banks. The failure or refusal
of any Bank to make available to the Administrative Agent at the aforesaid time
and place on any Drawdown Date the amount of its Commitment Percentage of the
requested Syndicated Loan shall not relieve any other Bank from its several
obligations hereunder to make available to the Administrative Agent the amount
of such Bank's Commitment Percentage of the requested Loan.
29
-23-

SECTION 2.9 MATURITY OF THE LOANS AND REIMBURSEMENT OBLIGATIONS. The
Borrower promises to pay on the Maturity Date, and there shall become
absolutely due and payable on the Maturity Date, all of the Loans and unpaid
Reimbursement Obligations outstanding on such date, together with any and all
accrued and unpaid interest thereon and any fees and other amounts owing
hereunder.

SECTION 2.10 OPTIONAL PREPAYMENTS OR REPAYMENTS OF LOANS. Subject to the
terms and conditions of Section 5.8, the Borrower shall have the right, at its
election, to repay or prepay the outstanding amount of the Loans, as a whole or
in part, at any time without penalty or premium. The Borrower shall give the
Administrative Agent no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) (a) on the
proposed date of prepayment or repayment of Base Rate Loans and (b) one (1)
Business Day prior to the proposed date of prepayment or repayment of all other
Loans, written notice (or telephonic notice confirmed in writing or by
facsimile) of any proposed prepayment or repayment pursuant to this Section
2.10, specifying the proposed date of prepayment or repayment of Loans and the
principal amount to be paid. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower may
not prepay any Competitive Bid Loans. The Administrative Agent shall promptly
notify each Bank by written notice (or telephonic notice confirmed in writing
or by facsimile) of such notice of payment.

SECTION 2.11 SWING LINE LOANS; SETTLEMENTS.

(a) Solely for ease of administration of the Syndicated Loans,
MGT may, but shall not be required to, fund Base Rate Loans made in
accordance with the provisions of this Agreement ("Swing Line Loans"). The
Swing Line Loans shall be evidenced by a promissory note of the Borrower in
substantially the form of Exhibit B hereto (the "Swing Line Note") and, at
the discretion of MGT may be in amounts less than $10,000,000 provided that
the outstanding amount of Swing Line Loans advanced by MGT hereunder shall
not exceed $10,000,000 at any time. Each Bank shall remain severally and
unconditionally liable to fund its pro rata share (based upon each Bank's
Commitment Percentage) of such Swing Line Loans on each Swing Line
Settlement Date and, in the event MGT chooses not to fund all Base Rate
Loans requested on any date, to fund its Commitment Percentage of the Base
Rate Loans requested, subject to satisfaction of the provisions hereof
relating to the making of Base Rate Loans. Prior to each Swing Line
Settlement, all payments or repayments of the principal of, and interest
on, Swing Line Loans shall be credited to the account of MGT.

(b) The Banks shall effect Swing Line Settlements on (i) the
Business Day immediately following any day which MGT gives written notice
to the Administrative Agent to effect a Swing Line Settlement, (ii)
30
-24-

the Business Day immediately following the Administrative Agent's becoming
aware of the existence of any Default or Event of Default, (iii) the
Maturity Date and (iv) the Business Day immediately following any day on
which the outstanding amount of Swing Line Loans advanced by MGT exceeds
$10,000,000 (each such date, a "Swing Line Settlement Date"). One (1)
Business Day prior to each such Swing Line Settlement Date, the
Administrative Agent shall give telephonic notice to the Banks of (A) the
respective outstanding amount of Syndicated Loans made by each Bank as at
the close of business on the prior day, (B) the amount that any Bank, as
applicable (a "Swing Line Settling Bank"), shall pay to effect a Swing Line
Settlement (a "Swing Line Settlement Amount") and (C) the portion (if any)
of the aggregate Swing Line Settlement Amount to be paid to each Bank. A
statement of the Administrative Agent submitted to the Banks with respect
to any amounts owing hereunder shall be prima facie evidence of the amount
due and owing. Each Swing Line Settling Bank shall, not later than 1:00
p.m. (New York time) on each Swing Line Settlement Date, effect a wire
transfer of immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent at its
Head Office in the amount of such Bank's Swing Line Settlement Amount. The
Administrative Agent shall, as promptly as practicable during normal
business hours on each Swing Line Settlement Date, effect a wire transfer
of immediately available funds to each Bank of the Swing Line Settlement
Amount to be paid to such Bank. All funds advanced by any Bank as a Swing
Line Settling Bank pursuant to this Section 2.11(b) shall for all purposes
be treated as a Base Rate Loan made by such Swing Line Settling Bank to the
Borrower, and all funds received by any Bank pursuant to this Section
2.11(b) shall for all purposes be treated as repayment of amounts owed by
the Borrower with respect to Base Rate Loans made by such Bank.

(c) The Administrative Agent may (unless notified to the
contrary by any Swing Line Settling Bank by 12:00 noon (New York time) one
(1) Business Day prior to the Settlement Date) assume that each Swing Line
Settling Bank has made available (or will make available by the time
specified in Section 2.11(b)) to the Administrative Agent its Swing Line
Settlement Amount, and the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be
required to), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to each
applicable Bank its share (if any) of the aggregate Swing Line Settlement
Amount. If the Swing Line Settlement Amount of such Swing Line Settling
Bank is made available to the Administrative Agent by such Swing Line
Settling Bank on a date after such Swing Line Settlement Date, such Swing
Line Settling Bank shall pay the Administrative Agent on demand an amount
equal to the product of (i) the average, computed for the period referred
to in clause (iii) below, of the weighted average annual interest rate paid
by the Administrative Agent for federal funds acquired by the
Administrative Agent during each day included in such
31
-25-

period times (ii) such Swing Line Settlement Amount times (iii) a fraction,
the numerator of which is the number of days that elapse from and including
such Swing Line Settlement Date to but not including the date on which such
Swing Line Settlement Amount shall become immediately available to the
Administrative Agent, and the denominator of which is 365. Upon payment of
such amount such Swing Line Settling Bank shall be deemed to have delivered
its Swing Line Settlement Amount on the Swing Line Settlement Date and
shall become entitled to interest payable by the Borrower with respect to
such Swing Line Settling Bank's Swing Line Settlement Amount as if such
share were delivered on the Swing Line Settlement Date. If such Swing Line
Settlement Amount is not in fact made available to the Administrative Agent
by such Swing Line Settling Bank within three (3) Business Days of such
Swing Line Settlement Date, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to
recover such amount from the Borrower, with interest thereon at the Base
Rate.

(d) After any Swing Line Settlement Date, any payment by the
Borrower of Swing Line Loans hereunder shall be allocated among the Banks,
in amounts determined so as to provide that after such application and the
related Swing Line Settlement, the outstanding amount of Syndicated Loans
of each Bank equals, as nearly as practicable, such Bank's Commitment
Percentage of the aggregate amount of Syndicated Loans.

SECTION 3. LETTERS OF CREDIT.

SECTION 3.1 LETTER OF CREDIT COMMITMENTS.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and the receipt
of a Letter of Credit Application by an Issuing Bank, with a copy to the
Administrative Agent reflecting the Maximum Drawing Amount of all Letters
of Credit (including the requested Letter of Credit), such Issuing Bank, on
behalf of the Banks and in reliance upon the representations and warranties
of the Borrower contained herein and the agreement of the Banks contained
in Section 3.1(b) hereof, agrees to issue Letters of Credit for the account
of the Borrower (which may, with such Issuing Bank's consent, incorporate
automatic renewals for periods of
32
-26-

up to twelve (12) months), in such form as may be requested from time to
time by the Borrower and agreed to by the Issuing Bank; provided, however,
that, after giving effect to such request, the aggregate Maximum Drawing
Amount of all Letters of Credit issued at any time shall not exceed the
lesser of (i) $650,000,000 or (ii) the Total Commitment minus the aggregate
outstanding amount of the Loans and provided further, that no Letter of
Credit shall have an expiration date later than the earlier of (x) eighteen
(18) months after the date of issuance (which may incorporate automatic
renewals for periods of up to twelve (12) months), or (y) five (5) Business
Days prior to the Maturity Date. The letters of credit listed in Schedule
3.1(a) issued by Issuing Banks under the Original Credit Agreement shall be
Letters of Credit under this Agreement, and the letters of credit listed in
Schedule 3.1(a) issued by Issuing Banks under the United Credit Agreement
shall be Letters of Credit under this Agreement issued for the account of
the Borrower as of the United Joinder Date.

(b) Each Letter of Credit shall be denominated in Dollars.
Each Bank severally agrees that it shall be absolutely liable, without
regard to the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, the
termination of the Total Commitment pursuant to Section 12.2, or any other
condition precedent whatsoever, to the extent of such Bank's Commitment
Percentage to reimburse the Issuing Bank on demand for the amount of each
draft paid by the Issuing Bank under each Letter of Credit to the extent
that such amount is not reimbursed by the Borrower pursuant to Section 3.2
(such agreement for a Bank being called herein the "Letter of Credit
Participation" of such Bank). Each Bank agrees that its obligation to
reimburse the Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section 3.1(c) shall not be
affected in any way by any circumstance other than the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of the Issuing Bank.

(c) Each such reimbursement payment made by a Bank to the
Issuing Bank shall be treated as the purchase by such Bank of a
participating interest in the applicable Reimbursement Obligation under
Section 3.2 in an amount equal to such payment. Each Bank shall share in
accordance with its participating interest in any interest which accrues
pursuant to Section 3.2.

SECTION 3.2. REIMBURSEMENT OBLIGATION OF THE BORROWER. In order to induce
the Issuing Banks to issue, extend and renew each Letter of Credit, the
Borrower hereby agrees to reimburse or pay to each Issuing Bank, with respect
to each Letter of Credit issued, extended or renewed by such Issuing Bank
hereunder as follows:

(a) if any draft presented under any Letter of Credit is
honored by such Issuing Bank or such Issuing Bank otherwise makes payment
with respect thereto, the sum of (i) the amount paid by such Issuing Bank
under or with respect to such Letter of Credit, and (ii) the amount of any
taxes, fees, charges or other costs and expenses whatsoever incurred by
such Issuing Bank in connection with any payment made by such Issuing Bank
under, or with respect to, such Letter of Credit, provided however, if the
Borrower does not reimburse such Issuing Bank on the Drawdown Date, such
amount shall, provided that no Event of Default under Section 12(g)
33
-27-

or 12(h) has occurred, become automatically a Syndicated Loan which is a
Base Rate Loan advanced hereunder in an amount equal to such sum; and

(b) upon the Maturity Date or the acceleration of the
Reimbursement Obligations with respect to all Letters of Credit in
accordance with Section 12, an amount equal to the then Maximum Drawing
Amount of all Letters of Credit shall be paid by the Borrower to the
Administrative Agent to be held as cash collateral for the applicable
Reimbursement Obligations.

SECTION 3.3 OBLIGATIONS ABSOLUTE. The Borrower's respective obligations
under this Section 3 shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all
circumstances and irrespective of the occurrence of any Default or Event of
Default or any condition precedent whatsoever or any setoff, counterclaim or
defense to payment which the Borrower may have or have had against any Issuing
Bank, any Bank or any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit, and the Borrower
expressly waives any such rights that it may have with respect thereto. The
Borrower further agrees with each Issuing Bank and the Banks that such Issuing
Bank and the Banks (i) shall not be responsible for, and the Borrower's
Reimbursement Obligations under Section 3.2 shall not be affected by, among
other things, the validity or genuineness of documents or of any endorsements
thereon, even if such documents should in fact prove to be in any or all
respects invalid, fraudulent or forged (unless due to the willful misconduct of
such Issuing Bank or any other Bank), or any dispute between or among the
Borrower and the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any financing
institution or other party to which any Letter of Credit may be transferred or
any claims or defenses whatsoever of the Borrower against the beneficiary of
any Letter of Credit or any such transferee, and (ii) shall not be liable for
any error, omission, interruption or delay in transmission, dispatch or
delivery of any message or advice, however transmitted, in connection with any
Letter of Credit except to the extent of their own willful misconduct. The
Borrower agrees that any action taken or omitted by any Issuing Bank or any
Bank in good faith under or in connection with any Letter of Credit and the
related drafts and documents shall be binding upon the Borrower and shall not
result in any liability on the part of such Issuing Bank or any Bank (or their
respective affiliates) to the Borrower. Nothing herein shall constitute a
waiver by the Borrower of any of its rights against any beneficiary of a Letter
of Credit.

SECTION 3.4 RELIANCE BY THE ISSUING BANKS. To the extent not inconsistent
with Section 3.3, each Issuing Bank shall be entitled to rely, and shall be
fully protected in relying, upon any Letter of Credit, draft, writing,
resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, cablegram,
telegram, facsimile, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other
document believed by such Issuing Bank in good faith 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
34
-28-

counsel, independent accountants and other experts selected by such Issuing
Bank.

SECTION 3.5. NOTICE REGARDING LETTERS OF CREDIT. One (1) Business Day
prior to the issuance of any Letter of Credit or amendments or extensions
thereof, the applicable Issuing Bank shall notify the Administrative Agent of
the terms of such Letter of Credit, amendment or extension. On the day of any
drawing under any Letter of Credit, such Issuing Bank shall notify the
Administrative Agent of such drawing under any Letter of Credit.

SECTION 3.6. LETTER OF CREDIT FEE. The Borrower shall pay a fee (the
"Letter of Credit Fee") equal to the Applicable L/C Rate on the Maximum Drawing
Amount of the Letters of Credit to the Administrative Agent for the account of
the Banks, to be shared pro rata by the Banks in accordance with their
respective Commitment Percentages. The Letter of Credit Fee shall be payable
quarterly in arrears on the first day of each calendar quarter for the quarter
just ended, commencing October 1, 1997, and on the Maturity Date. In addition,
an issuing fee (the "Issuance Fee") with respect to each Letter of Credit to be
agreed upon annually between the Borrower and each Issuing Bank shall be
payable to such Issuing Bank for its account.

SECTION 4. COMPETITIVE BID LOANS.

SECTION 4.1. THE COMPETITIVE BID OPTION. In addition to the Syndicated
Loans made pursuant to Section 2 hereof, the Borrower may request Competitive
Bid Loans pursuant to the terms of this Section 4. The Banks may, but shall
have no obligation to, make such offers and the Borrower may, but shall have no
obligation to, accept such offers in the manner set forth in this Section 4.
Notwithstanding any other provision herein to the contrary, at no time shall
the aggregate principal amount of Competitive Bid Loans outstanding at any time
exceed the Total Commitment minus the sum of (a) the aggregate outstanding
principal amount of Syndicated Loans (including the Swing Loans), plus (b) the
Maximum Drawing Amount of Letters of Credit outstanding at such time.

SECTION 4.2. COMPETITIVE BID LOAN ACCOUNTS: COMPETITIVE BID NOTES.

(a) The obligation of the Borrower to repay the outstanding
principal amount of any and all Competitive Bid Loans, plus interest at the
applicable Competitive Bid Rate accrued thereon, shall be evidenced by this
Agreement and by individual loan accounts (the "Competitive Bid Loan
Accounts" and individually, a "Competitive Bid Loan Account") maintained by
the Administrative Agent on its books for each of the Banks, it being the
intention of the parties hereto that, except as provided for in paragraph
(b) of this Section 4.2, the Borrower's obligations with respect to
Competitive Bid Loans are to be evidenced only as stated herein and not by
separate promissory notes.
35
-29-

(b) Any Bank may at any time, and from time to time, request
that any Competitive Bid Loans outstanding to such Bank be evidenced by a
promissory note of the Borrower in substantially the form of Exhibit C
hereto (each, a "Competitive Bid Note"), dated as of the Closing Date and
completed with appropriate insertions. One Competitive Bid Note shall be
payable to the order of each Bank in an amount equal to the Total
Commitment, and representing the obligation of the Borrower to pay such
Bank such principal amount or, if less, the outstanding principal amount of
any and all Competitive Bid Loans made by such Bank, plus interest at the
applicable Competitive Bid Rate or Competitive Bid Margin accrued thereon,
as set forth herein. Upon execution and delivery by the Borrower of a
Competitive Bid Note, the Borrower's obligation to repay any and all
Competitive Bid Loans made to it by such Bank and all interest thereon
shall thereafter be evidenced by such Competitive Bid Note.

(c) The Borrower irrevocably authorizes (i) each Bank to make
or cause to be made, in connection with a Drawdown Date of any Competitive
Bid Loan or at the time of receipt of any payment of principal on such
Bank's Competitive Bid Note in the case of a Competitive Bid Note, and (ii)
the Administrative Agent to make or cause to be made, in connection with a
Drawdown Date of any Competitive Bid Loan or at the time of receipt of any
payment of principal on such Bank's Competitive Bid Loan Account in the
case of a Competitive Bid Loan Account, an appropriate notation on such
Bank's records or on the schedule attached to such Bank's Competitive Bid
Note or a continuation of such schedule attached thereto, or the
Administrative Agent's records, as applicable, reflecting the making of the
Competitive Bid Loan or the receipt of such payment (as the case may be)
and such Bank may, prior to any transfer of a Competitive Bid Note, endorse
on the reverse side thereof the outstanding principal amount of Competitive
Bid Loans evidenced thereby. The outstanding amount of the Competitive Bid
Loans set forth on such Bank's record or the Administrative Agent's
records, as applicable, shall be prima facie evidence of the principal
amount thereof owing and unpaid to such Bank, but the failure to record, or
any error in so recording, any such amount shall not limit or otherwise
affect the obligations of the Borrower hereunder to make payments of
principal of or interest on any Competitive Bid Loan when due.

SECTION 4.3. COMPETITIVE BID QUOTE REQUEST; INVITATION FOR COMPETITIVE BID
QUOTES.

(a) When the Borrower wishes to request offers to make
Competitive Bid Loans under this Section 4, it shall transmit to the
Administrative Agent by telex or facsimile a Competitive Bid
36
-30-

Quote Request substantially in the form of Exhibit H hereto (a "Competitive
Bid Quote Request") so as to be received no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York
time) (x) five (5) Eurodollar Business Days prior to the requested Drawdown
Date in the case of a LIBOR Competitive Bid Loan (a "LIBOR Competitive Bid
Loan") or (y) one (1) Business Day prior to the requested Drawdown Date in
the case of an Absolute Competitive Bid Loan (an "Absolute Competitive Bid
Loan"), specifying:

(i) the requested Drawdown Date (which must be a
Eurodollar Business Day in the case of a LIBOR Competitive Bid
Loan or a Business Day in the case of an Absolute Competitive Bid
Loan);

(ii) the aggregate amount of such Competitive Bid Loans,
which shall be $10,000,000 or larger multiple of $1,000,000;

(iii) the duration of the Interest Period(s) applicable
thereto, subject to the provisions of the definition of Interest
Period; and

(iv) whether the Competitive Bid Quotes requested are for
LIBOR Competitive Bid Loans or Absolute Competitive Bid Loans.

The Borrower may request offers to make Competitive Bid Loans for more than
one Interest Period in a single Competitive Bid Quote Request. No new
Competitive Bid Quote Request shall be given until the Borrower has
notified the Administrative Agent of its acceptance or non-acceptance of
the Competitive Bid Quotes relating to any outstanding Competitive Bid
Quote Request.

(b) Promptly upon receipt of a Competitive Bid Quote Request,
the Administrative Agent shall send to the Banks by telecopy or facsimile
transmission an Invitation for Competitive Bid Quotes substantially in the
form of Exhibit I hereto, which shall constitute an invitation by the
Borrower to each Bank to submit Competitive Bid Quotes in accordance with
this Section 4.

SECTION 4.4. ALTERNATIVE MANNER OF PROCEDURE. If, after receipt by the
Administrative Agent and each of the Banks of a Competitive Bid Quote Request
from the Borrower in accordance with Section 4.3, the Administrative Agent or
any Bank shall be unable to complete any procedure of the auction process
described in Sections 4.5 through 4.6 (inclusive) due to the inability of such
Person to transmit or receive communications through the means specified
therein, such Person may rely on telephonic notice for the transmission or
receipt of such communications. In any case where such Person shall rely on
telephone transmission or receipt, any communication made by telephone shall,
as soon as possible thereafter, be followed by written confirmation thereof.
37
-31-

SECTION 4.5. SUBMISSION AND CONTENTS OF COMPETITIVE BID QUOTES.

(a) Each Bank may, but shall be under no obligation to, submit
a Competitive Bid Quote containing an offer or offers to make Competitive
Bid Loans in response to any Competitive Bid Quote Request. Each
Competitive Bid Quote must comply with the requirements of this Section 4.5
and must be submitted to the Administrative Agent by telex or facsimile
transmission at its offices as specified in or pursuant to Section 21 not
later than (x) 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the fourth Eurodollar Business

in the case of an Absolute Competitive Bid Loan, provided that Competitive

a Bank only if it submits its Competitive Bid Quote to the Borrower not
later than (x) one hour prior to the deadline for the other Banks, in the
case of a LIBOR Competitive Bid Loan or (y) 15 minutes prior to the
deadline for the other Banks, in the case of an Absolute Competitive Bid
Loan. Subject to the provisions of Sections 10 and 11 hereof, any
Competitive Bid Quote so made shall be irrevocable except with the written
consent of the Administrative Agent given on the instructions of the
Borrower.

(b) Each Competitive Bid Quote shall be in substantially the form
of Exhibit J hereto and shall in any case specify:

(i) the proposed Drawdown Date;

(ii) the principal amount of the Competitive Bid Loan for

not exceed the aggregate principal amount of Competitive Bid Loans
for which offers were requested and (z) may be subject to an
aggregate limitation as to the principal amount of Competitive Bid
Loans for which offers being made by such quoting Bank may be

(iii) the Interest Period(s) for which Competitive Bid
Quotes are being submitted;

(iv) in the case of a LIBOR Competitive Bid Loan, the
margin above or below the applicable LIBOR Rate (the "Competitive

as a percentage (specified to the nearest 1/10,000th of 1%) to be
added to or subtracted from such LIBOR Rate;
38
-32-

(v) in the case of an Absolute Competitive Bid Loan, the
rate of interest per annum (specified to the nearest 1/10,000th of
1%) (the "Competitive Bid Rate") offered for each such Absolute
Competitive Bid Loan; and

(vi) the identity of the quoting Bank.

A Competitive Bid Quote may include up to five separate offers by the quoting
Bank with respect to each Interest Period specified in the related Invitation
for Competitive Bid Quotes.

(i) is not substantially in the form of Exhibit J hereto;

(ii) contains qualifying, conditional or similar language;

(iii) proposes terms other than or in addition to those
set forth in the applicable Invitation for Competitive Bid Quotes;
or

(iv) arrives after the time set forth in Section 4.5(a)
hereof.

SECTION 4.6 NOTICE TO BORROWER. The Administrative Agent shall promptly
notify the Borrower of the terms (x) of any Competitive Bid Quote submitted by
a Bank that is in accordance with Section 4.5 and (y) of any Competitive Bid
Quote that amends, modifies or is otherwise inconsistent with a previous
Competitive Bid Quote submitted by such Bank with respect to the same
Competitive Bid Quote Request. Any such subsequent Competitive Bid Quote shall
be disregarded by the Administrative Agent unless such subsequent Competitive
Bid Quote is submitted solely to correct a manifest error in such former
Competitive Bid Quote. The Administrative Agent's notice to the Borrower shall
specify (A) the aggregate principal amount of Competitive Bid Loans for which
offers have been received for each Interest Period specified in the related
Competitive Bid Quote Request, (B) the respective principal amounts and
Competitive Bid Margins or Competitive Bid Rates, as the case may be, so
offered, and the identity of the respective Banks submitting such offers, and
(C) if applicable, limitations on the aggregate principal amount of Competitive
Bid Loans for which offers in any single Competitive Bid Quote may be accepted.

SECTION 4.7. ACCEPTANCE AND NOTICE BY BORROWER AND ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT.
Not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on (x) the third Eurodollar Business
Day prior to the proposed Drawdown Date, in the case of a LIBOR Competitive Bid
Loan or (y) the proposed Drawdown Date, in the case of an Absolute Competitive
Bid Loan, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of its acceptance
or non-acceptance of each Competitive Bid Quote in
39
-33-

substantially the form of Exhibit K hereto. The Borrower may accept any
Competitive Bid Quote in whole or in part; provided that:

(i) the aggregate principal amount of each Competitive
Bid Loan may not exceed the applicable amount set forth in the
related Competitive Bid Quote Request;

(ii) acceptance of offers may only be made on the basis
of ascending Competitive Bid Margins or Competitive Bid Rates, as
the case may be, and

(iii) the Borrower may not accept any offer that is
described in subsection 4.5(c) or that otherwise fails to comply
with the requirements of this Agreement.

The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Bank which submitted a
Competitive Bid Quote of the Borrower's acceptance or non-acceptance thereof.
At the request of any Bank which submitted a Competitive Bid Quote and with the
consent of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent will promptly notify all
Banks which submitted Competitive Bid Quotes of (a) the aggregate principal
amount of, and (b) the range of Competitive Bid Rates or Competitive Bid
Margins of, the accepted Competitive Bid Loans for each requested Interest
Period.

SECTION 4.8. ALLOCATION BY ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT. If offers are made by
two or more Banks with the same Competitive Bid Margin or Competitive Bid Rate,
as the case may be, for a greater aggregate principal amount than the amount in
respect of which offers are accepted for the related Interest Period, the
principal amount of Competitive Bid Loans in respect of which such offers are
accepted shall be allocated by the Administrative Agent among such Banks as
nearly as possible (in such multiples, not less than $1,000,000, as the
Administrative Agent may deem appropriate) in proportion to the aggregate
principal amounts of such offers. Determination by the Administrative Agent of
the amounts of Competitive Bid Loans shall be conclusive in the absence of
manifest error.

SECTION 4.9. FUNDING OF COMPETITIVE BID LOANS. If, on or prior to the
Drawdown Date of any Competitive Bid Loan, the Total Commitment has not
terminated in full and if, on such Drawdown Date, the applicable conditions of
Sections 10 and 11 hereof are satisfied, the Bank or Banks whose offers the
Borrower has accepted will fund each Competitive Bid Loan so accepted. Such
Bank or Banks will make such Competitive Bid Loans by crediting the
Administrative Agent for further credit to the Borrower's specified account
with the Administrative Agent, in immediately available funds not later than
1:00 p.m. (New York time) on such Drawdown Date.
40
-34-

SECTION 4.10. FUNDING LOSSES. If, after acceptance of any Competitive Bid
Quote pursuant to Section 4, the Borrower (i) fails to borrow any Competitive
Bid Loan so accepted on the date specified therefor, or (ii) repays the
outstanding amount of the Competitive Bid Loan prior to the last day of the
Interest Period relating thereto, the Borrower shall indemnify the Bank making
such Competitive Bid Quote or funding such Competitive Bid Loan against any
loss or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of
deposits or other funds acquired by such Bank to fund or maintain such
unborrowed Loans, including, without limitation compensation as provided in
Section 5.8.

SECTION 4.11. REPAYMENT OF COMPETITIVE BID LOANS; INTEREST. The principal
of each Competitive Bid Loan shall become absolutely due and payable by the
Borrower on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto, and the
Borrower hereby absolutely and unconditionally promises to pay to the
Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant Banks at or before 1:00
p.m. (New York time) on the last day of the Interest Periods relating thereto
the principal amount of all such Competitive Bid Loans, plus interest thereon
at the applicable Competitive Bid Rates. The Competitive Bid Loans shall bear
interest at the rate per annum specified in the applicable Competitive Bid
Quotes. Interest on the Competitive Bid Loans shall be payable (a) on the last
day of the applicable Interest Periods, and if any such Interest Period is
longer than three months, also on the last day of the third month following the
commencement of such Interest Period, and (b) on the Maturity Date for all
Loans. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Borrower may make
Competitive Bid Quote Requests with respect to new borrowings of any amounts so
repaid prior to the Maturity Date.

SECTION 5. PROVISIONS RELATING TO ALL LOANS AND LETTERS OF CREDIT.

SECTION 5.1. PAYMENTS.

(a) All payments of principal, interest, Reimbursement
Obligations, fees (other than the Issuance Fee) and any other amounts due
hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents shall be made to the
Administrative Agent at its Head Office in immediately available funds by
11:00 a.m. (New York time) on any due date. Subject to the provisions of
Section 28, if a payment is received by the Administrative Agent at or
before 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on any Business Day, the Administrative
Agent shall on the same Business Day transfer in immediately available
funds, as applicable, to (1) each of the Banks, their pro rata portion of
such payment in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages, in
the
41
-35-

case of payments with respect to Syndicated Loans and Letters of Credit,
(2) MGT in the case of payments with respect to Swing Line Loans, and (3)
the appropriate Bank(s), in the case of payments with respect to
Competitive Bid Loans. If such payment is received by the Administrative
Agent after 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on any Business Day, such transfer
shall be made by the Administrative Agent to the applicable Bank(s) on the
next Business Day. In the event that the Administrative Agent fails to
make such transfer to any Bank as set forth above, the Administrative Agent
shall pay to such Bank on demand an amount equal to the product of (i) the
average, computed for the period referred to in clause (iii) below, of the
weighted average interest rate paid by such Bank for funds acquired by such
Bank during each day included in such period, times (ii) the amount (A)
equal to such Bank's Commitment Percentage of such payment in the case of
payments under clause (1) above, or (B) of such payment to which such Bank
is entitled in the case of payments with respect to Competitive Bid Loans
and Swing Line Loans, times (iii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the
number of days that elapse from and including the date of payment to and
including the date on which the amount due to such Bank shall become
immediately available to such Bank, and the denominator of which is 365. A
statement of such Bank submitted to the applicable Administrative Agent
with respect to any amounts owing under this paragraph shall be prima facie
evidence of the amount due and owing to such Bank by the Administrative
Agent.

(b) Each Bank that is not incorporated or organized under the
laws of the United States of America or a state thereof or the District of
Columbia (a "Non-U.S. Bank") agrees that, prior to the first date on which
any payment is due to it hereunder, it will deliver to the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent two duly completed copies of United States Internal
Revenue Service Form 1001 or 4224 or successor applicable form, as the case
may be, certifying in each case that such Non-U.S. Bank is entitled to
receive payments under this Agreement and the Notes payable to it, without
deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes. Each
Non-U.S. Bank that so delivers a Form 1001 or 4224 pursuant to the
preceding sentence further undertakes to deliver to each of the Borrower
and the Administrative Agent two further copies of Form 1001 or 4224 or
successor applicable form, or other manner of certification, as the case
may be, on or before the date that any such letter or form expires or
becomes obsolete or after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in
the most recent form previously delivered by it to the Borrower, and such
extensions or renewals thereof as may reasonably be requested by the
Borrower, certifying in the case of a Form 1001 or 4224 that such Non-U.S.
Bank is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement and the Notes
without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes,
unless in any such case an event (including, without limitation, any change
in treaty, law or regulation) has occurred prior to the date on which any
such delivery would otherwise be required
42
-36-

which renders all such forms inapplicable or which would prevent such
Non-U.S. Bank from duly completing and delivering any such form with
respect to it and such Non-U.S. Bank advises the Borrower that it is not
capable of receiving payments without any deduction or withholding of
United States federal income tax.

(c) The Borrower shall not be required to pay any additional
amounts to any Non-U.S. Bank in respect of United States Federal
withholding tax pursuant to Section 17 to the extent that (i) the
obligation to withhold amounts with respect to United States Federal
withholding tax existed on the date such Non-U.S. Bank became a party to
this Agreement or, with respect to payments to a different lending office
designated by the Non-U.S. Bank as its applicable lending office (a "New
Lending Office"), the date such Non-U.S. Bank designated such New Lending
Office with respect to a Loan; provided, however, that this clause (i)
shall not apply to any transferee or New Lending Office as a result of an
assignment, transfer or designation made at the request of the Borrower;
and provided further, however, that this clause (i) shall not apply to the
extent the indemnity payment or additional amounts any transferee, or Bank
through a New Lending Office, would be entitled to receive without regard
to this clause (i) do not exceed the indemnity payment or additional
amounts that the Person making the assignment or transfer to such
transferee, or Bank making the designation of such New Lending Office,
would have been entitled to receive in the absence of such assignment,
transfer or designation; or (ii) the obligation to pay such additional
amounts would not have arisen but for a failure by such Non-U.S. Bank to
comply with the provisions of paragraph (c) above.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Bank agrees to use
reasonable efforts (consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions) to
change its lending office to avoid or to minimize any amounts otherwise
payable under Section 17 in each case solely if such change can be made in
a manner so that such Bank, in its sole determination, suffers no legal,
economic or regulatory disadvantage.

SECTION 5.2. MANDATORY REPAYMENTS OF THE LOANS. If at any time the sum of
the outstanding principal amount of the Loans plus the Maximum Drawing Amount
of all outstanding Letters of Credit exceeds the Total Commitment, whether by
reduction of the Total Commitment or otherwise, then the Borrower shall
immediately pay the amount of such excess to the Administrative Agent, (a) for
application to the Loans, first to Syndicated Loans, then to Competitive Bid
Loans, subject to Section 5.8, or (b) if no Loans shall be outstanding, to be
held by the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Banks as collateral
security for such excess Maximum Drawing Amount; provided, however, that if the
amount of cash collateral held by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this
Section 5.2 exceeds
43

-37-

the Maximum Drawing Amount required to be collateralized from time to time, the
Administrative Agent shall return such excess to the Borrower.

SECTION 5.3. COMPUTATIONS. Except as otherwise expressly provided
herein, all computations of interest, Facility Fees, Utilization Fees, Letter
of Credit Fees or other fees shall be based on a 360-day year and paid for the
actual number of days elapsed, except that computations based on the
Administrative Agent's "prime rate" shall be based on a 365 or 366, as
applicable, day year and paid for the actual number of days elapsed. Whenever
a payment hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents becomes due on a
day that is not a Business Day, the due date for such payment shall be extended
to the next succeeding Business Day, and interest shall accrue during such
extension; provided that for any Interest Period for any Eurodollar Loan if
such next succeeding Business Day falls in the next succeeding calendar month
or after the Maturity Date, it shall be deemed to end on the next preceding
Business Day.

SECTION 5.4. ILLEGALITY; INABILITY TO DETERMINE EURODOLLAR RATE.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement (other than Section
5.10), if (a) the introduction of, any change in, or any change in the
interpretation of, any law or regulation applicable to any Bank or the
Administrative Agent shall make it unlawful, or any central bank or other
governmental authority having jurisdiction thereof shall assert that it is
unlawful, for any Bank or the Administrative Agent to perform its obligations
in respect of any Eurodollar Loans, or (b) if any Bank or the Administrative
Agent, as applicable, shall reasonably determine with respect to Eurodollar
Loans that (i) by reason of circumstances affecting any Eurodollar interbank
market, adequate and reasonable methods do not exist for ascertaining the
Eurodollar Rate which would otherwise be applicable during any Interest Period,
or (ii) deposits of Dollars in the relevant amount for the relevant Interest
Period are not available to such Bank or the Administrative Agent in any
Eurodollar interbank market, or (iii) the Eurodollar Rate does not or will not
accurately reflect the cost to the Bank or the Administrative Agent of
obtaining or maintaining the Eurodollar Loans during any Interest Period, then
such Bank or the Administrative Agent shall promptly give telephonic, telex or
cable notice of such determination to the Borrower (which notice shall be
conclusive and binding upon the Borrower). Upon such notification by the Bank
or the Administrative Agent, the obligation of the Banks and the Administrative
Agent to make Eurodollar Loans shall be suspended until the Banks or the
Administrative Agent, as the case may be, determine that such circumstances no
longer exist, and to the extent permitted by law the outstanding Eurodollar
Loans shall continue to bear interest at the applicable rate based on the
Eurodollar Rate until the end of the applicable Interest Period, and thereafter
shall be deemed converted to Base Rate Loans in equal principal amounts to such
former Eurodollar Loans.
44
-38-

SECTION 5.5. ADDITIONAL COSTS, ETC. If any present or future applicable
law (which expression, as used herein, includes statutes, rules and regulations
thereunder and interpretations thereof by any competent court or by any
governmental or other regulatory body or official charged with the
administration or the interpretation thereof and requests, directives,
instructions and notices at any time or from time to time hereafter made upon
or otherwise issued to any Bank by any central bank or other fiscal, monetary
or other authority, whether or not having the force of law) shall:

(a) subject such Bank to any tax, levy, impost, duty, charge, fee,
deduction or withholding of any nature with respect to this Agreement, the
other Loan Documents, such Bank's Commitment or the Loans (other than taxes
based upon or measured by the income or profits of such Bank imposed by the
jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization, or the location of its
lending office); or

(b) materially change the basis of taxation (except for changes in
taxes on income or profits of such Bank imposed by the jurisdiction of its
incorporation or organization, or the location of its lending office) of
payments to such Bank of the principal or of the interest on any Loans or
any other amounts payable to such Bank under this Agreement or the other
Loan Documents; or

(c) except as provided in Section 5.6 or as otherwise reflected in the
Base Rate, the Eurodollar Rate, or the Competitive Bid Rate, impose or
increase or render applicable (other than to the extent specifically
provided for elsewhere in this Agreement) any special deposit, reserve,
assessment, liquidity, capital adequacy or other similar requirements
(whether or not having the force of law) against assets held by, or
deposits in or for the account of, or loans by, or commitments of, an
office of any Bank with respect to this Agreement, the other Loan
Documents, such Bank's Commitment or the Loans; or

(d) impose on such Bank any other conditions or requirements with
respect to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Loans, such Bank's
Commitment or any class of loans or commitments of which any of the Loans
or such Bank's Commitment forms a part, and the result of any of the
foregoing is:

(i) to increase the cost to such Bank of making, funding, issuing,
renewing, extending or maintaining the Loans or such Bank's Commitment
or issuing or participating in Letters of Credit;

(ii) to reduce the amount of principal, interest or other
amount payable to such Bank hereunder on account of such Bank's
Commitment, the Loans or the Reimbursement Obligations; or
45
-39-

(iii) to require such Bank to make any payment or to forego any
interest or other sum payable hereunder, the amount of which payment
or foregone interest or other sum is calculated by reference to the
gross amount of any sum receivable or deemed received by such Bank
from the Borrower hereunder,

then, and in each such case, the Borrower will, upon demand made by
such Bank at any time and from time to time as often as the occasion
therefore may arise (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement
setting forth the basis of such demand which shall be conclusive absent
manifest error), pay such reasonable additional amounts as will be
sufficient to compensate such Bank for such additional costs, reduction,
payment or foregone interest or other SUM.

SECTION 5.6. CAPITAL ADEQUACY. If any Bank shall have determined that,
after the date hereof, the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation
regarding capital adequacy, or any change in any such law, rule, or regulation,
or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any
governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the
interpretation or administration thereof, or any request or directive regarding
capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such
authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of
reducing the rate of return on capital of such Bank (or any corporation
controlling such Bank) as a consequence of such Bank's obligations hereunder to
a level below that which such Bank (or any corporation controlling such Bank)
could have achieved but for such adoption, change, request or directive (taking
into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount
deemed by such Bank to be material, then from time to time, within 15 days
after demand by such Bank, the Borrower shall pay to such Bank such additional
amount or amounts as will, in such Bank's reasonable determination, fairly
compensate such Bank (or any corporation controlling such Bank) for such
reduction. Each Bank shall allocate such cost increases among its customers in
good faith and on an equitable basis.

SECTION 5.7. CERTIFICATE. A certificate setting forth the additional
amounts payable pursuant to Section 5.5 or Section 5.6 and a reasonable
explanation of such amounts which are due, submitted by any Bank to the
Borrower, shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, that such amounts are due
and owing.

SECTION 5.8. EURODOLLAR AND COMPETITIVE BID INDEMNITY. The Borrower
agrees to indemnify the Banks and the Administrative Agent and to hold them
harmless from and against any reasonable loss, cost or expense that any such
Bank and the Administrative Agent may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a)
the default by the Borrower in payment of the principal amount of or any
interest on any Eurodollar Loans or Competitive Bid Loans as and when due and
payable, including any such loss or expense arising from interest or fees
46
-40-

payable by any Bank or the Administrative Agent to lenders of funds obtained by
it in order to maintain its Eurodollar Loans or Competitive Bid Loans, (b) the
default by the Borrower in making a borrowing of a Eurodollar Loan or
Competitive Bid Loan or conversion of a Eurodollar Loan or a prepayment of a
Eurodollar or Competitive Bid Loan other than pursuant to Section 2.5(c) after
the Borrower has given (or is deemed to have given) a Syndicated Loan Request,
a notice pursuant to Section 2.7 or a Notice of Acceptance/Rejection of
Competitive Bid Quote(s), or a notice pursuant to Section 2.10, and (c) the
making of any payment of a Eurodollar Loan or Competitive Bid Loan, or the
making of any conversion of any Eurodollar Loan to a Base Rate Loan on a day
that is not the last day of the applicable Interest Period with respect
thereto. Such loss, cost, or reasonable expense shall include an amount equal
to the excess, if any, as reasonably determined by each Bank of (i) its cost of
obtaining the funds for (A) the Eurodollar Loan being paid, prepaid, converted,
not converted, reallocated, or not borrowed, as the case may be (based on the
Eurodollar Rate), or (B) the Competitive Bid Loan being paid, prepaid, or not
borrowed, as the case may be (based on the Competitive Bid Rate) for the period
from the date of such payment, prepayment, conversion, or failure to borrow or
convert, as the case may be, to the last day of the Interest Period for such
Loan (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, the Interest Period for the Loan
which would have commenced on the date of such failure to borrow) over (ii) the
amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Bank) that would be
realized by such Bank in reemploying the funds so paid, prepaid, converted, or
not borrowed, converted, or prepaid for such period or Interest Period, as the
case may be, which determinations shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

SECTION 5.9. INTEREST ON OVERDUE AMOUNTS. Overdue principal and (to the
extent permitted by applicable law) interest on the Loans and all other overdue
amounts payable hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents shall bear
interest compounded monthly and payable on demand at a rate per annum equal to
the Base Rate plus 2%, until such amount shall be paid in full (after as well
as before judgment).

SECTION 5.10. INTEREST LIMITATION. Notwithstanding any other term of
this Agreement or the Notes, any other Loan Document or any other document
referred to herein or therein, the maximum amount of interest which may be
charged to or collected from any Person liable hereunder or under the Notes by
any Bank shall be absolutely limited to, and shall in no event exceed, the
maximum amount of interest which could lawfully be charged or collected by such
Bank under applicable laws (including, to the extent applicable, the provisions
of Section 5197 of the Revised Statutes of the United States of America, as
amended, and 12 U.S.C. Section 85, as amended.

SECTION 5.11. REASONABLE EFFORTS TO MITIGATE. Each Bank agrees that as
promptly as practicable after it becomes aware of the occurrence of an event or
47
-41-

the existence of a condition that would cause it to be affected under Sections
5.4, 5.5 or 5.6, such Bank will give notice thereof to the Borrower, with a
copy to the Administrative Agent and, to the extent so requested by the
Borrower and not inconsistent with such Bank's internal policies, such Bank
shall use reasonable efforts and take such actions as are reasonably
appropriate if as a result thereof the additional moneys which would otherwise
be required to be paid to such Bank pursuant to such sections would be
materially reduced, or the illegality or other adverse circumstances which
would otherwise require a conversion of such Loans or result in the inability
to make such Loans pursuant to such sections would cease to exist, and in each
case if, as determined by such Bank in its sole discretion, the taking such
actions would not adversely affect such Loans or such Bank or otherwise be
disadvantageous to such Bank.

SECTION 5.12. REPLACEMENT OF BANKS. If any Bank (an "Affected Bank") (i)
makes demand upon the Borrower for (or if the Borrower is otherwise required to
pay) amounts pursuant to Sections 5.5 or 5.6, (ii) is unable to make or
maintain Eurodollar Loans as a result of a condition described in Section 5.4
or (iii) defaults in its obligation to make Loans or to participate in Letters
of Credit in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (such Bank being
referred to as a "Defaulting Bank"), the Borrower may, within 90 days of
receipt of such demand, notice (or the occurrence of such other event causing
the Borrower to be required to pay such compensation or causing Section 5.4 to
be applicable), or default, as the case may be, by notice (a "Replacement
Notice") in writing to the Administrative Agent and such Affected Bank (A)
request the Affected Bank to cooperate with the Borrower in obtaining a
replacement bank satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower
(the "Replacement Bank"); (B) request the non-Affected Banks to acquire and
assume all of the Affected Bank's Loans and Commitment, and to participate in
Letters of Credit as provided herein, but none of such Banks shall be under an
obligation to do so; or (C) designate a Replacement Bank reasonably
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. If any satisfactory Replacement Bank
shall be obtained, and/or any of the non-Affected Banks shall agree to acquire
and assume all of the Affected Bank's Loans and Commitment, and to participate
in Letters of Credit then such Affected Bank shall, so long as no Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing, assign, in accordance with
Section 19, all of its Commitment, Loans, Notes and other rights and
obligations under this Agreement and all other Loan Documents to such
Replacement Bank or non-Affected Banks, as the case may be, in exchange for
payment of the principal amount so assigned and all interest and fees accrued
on the amount so assigned, plus all other Obligations then due and payable to
the Affected Bank; provided, however, that (x) such assignment shall be without
recourse, representation or warranty and shall be on terms and conditions
reasonably satisfactory to such Affected Bank and such Replacement Bank and/or
non-Affected Banks, as the case may be, and (y) prior to any such assignment,
the Borrower shall have paid to such Affected Bank all amounts properly
demanded and unreimbursed under Sections 5.5, 5.6 and 5.8. Upon the effective
date of such
48
-42-

assignment, the Borrower shall issue replacement Notes to such Replacement Bank
and/or non-Affected Banks, as the case may be, and such Replacement Bank shall
become a "Bank" for all purposes under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents.

SECTION 5.13. ADVANCES BY ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT. The Administrative Agent
may (unless earlier notified to the contrary by any Bank by 12:00 noon (New
York time) one (1) Business Day prior to any Drawdown Date) assume that each
Bank has made available (or will before the end of such Business Day make
available) to the Administrative Agent the amount of such Bank's Commitment
Percentage with respect to the Loans (or, in the case of Competitive Bid Loans,
the amount of such Bank's accepted offers of such Loans, if any) to be made on
such Drawdown Date, and the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be required
to), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a
corresponding amount. If any Bank makes such amount available to the
Administrative Agent on a date after such Drawdown Date, such Bank shall pay
the Administrative Agent on demand an amount equal to the product of (i) the
average, computed for the period referred to in clause (iii) below, of the
weighted average annual interest rate paid by the Administrative Agent for
federal funds acquired by the Administrative Agent during each day included in
such period times (ii) the amount equal to such Bank's Commitment Percentage of
such Syndicated Loan (or, in the case of Competitive Bid Loans and Swing Line
Loans, the amount of such Bank's accepted offer of such Competitive Bid Loans,
if any, and portion of such Swing Line Loans) times (iii) a fraction, the
numerator of which is the number of days that elapse from and including such
Drawdown Date to but not including the date on which the amount equal to such
Bank's Commitment Percentage of such Loans, or the amount of such Bank's
accepted offers of such Competitive Bid Loans, if any, and portion of Swing
Line Loans, shall become immediately available to the Administrative Agent, and
the denominator of which is 365. A statement of the Administrative Agent
submitted to such Bank with respect to any amounts owing under this paragraph
shall be prima facie evidence of the amount due and owing to the Administrative
Agent by such Bank. If such amount is not in fact made available to the
Administrative Agent by such Bank within three (3) Business Days of such
Drawdown Date, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such
amount from such Borrower, with interest thereon at the applicable rate per
annum.

SECTION 6. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. The Borrower (and each of
the Guarantors, where applicable) represents and warrants to the Banks that:

incorporation, (ii) has all requisite corporate power to own its property
and conduct its business as now conducted and as presently contemplated,
and (iii) is in good standing as a foreign corporation and is duly
authorized to do business in each jurisdiction in which its property or

material adverse effect on the business, assets or financial condition of
the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as a whole.

(b) AUTHORIZATION. The execution, delivery and performance of its
Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (i) are
within the corporate authority of the Borrower and each of the Guarantors,
(ii) have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate proceedings on
the part of each of the Borrower and the Guarantors, (iii) do not conflict
with or result in any breach or contravention of any provision of law,

or any of their Subsidiaries is subject or any judgment, order, writ,

Guarantors or any of their Subsidiaries so as to materially adversely
affect the assets, business or any activity of the Borrower, the Guarantors
and their Subsidiaries as a whole, and (iv) do not conflict with any
provision of the corporate charter or bylaws of the Borrower, the
Guarantors or any Subsidiary or any agreement or other instrument binding
upon the Borrower, the Guarantors or any of their Subsidiaries.

(c) ENFORCEABILITY. The execution, delivery and performance of the
Loan Documents by the Borrower and the Guarantors will result in valid and
legally binding obligations of the Borrower and the Guarantors enforceable
against them in accordance with the respective terms and provisions hereof
and thereof, except as enforceability is limited by bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium or other laws relating to or affecting generally
the enforcement of creditors' rights and except to the extent that
availability of the remedy of specific performance or injunctive relief is
subject to the discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefor
may be brought.

SECTION 6.2. GOVERNMENTAL APPROVALS. The execution, delivery and
performance of the Loan Documents by the Borrower and the Guarantors and the
consummation by the Borrower and the Guarantors of the transactions
contemplated hereby and thereby do not require any approval or consent of, or
50
-44-

filing with, any governmental agency or authority other than those already
obtained and those required after the date hereof in connection with the
Borrower's and its Subsidiaries' performance of their covenants contained in
Sections 7, 8 and 9 hereof.

SECTION 6.3. TITLE TO PROPERTIES; LEASES. The Borrower and its
Subsidiaries own all of the assets reflected in the consolidated balance sheet
as at the Interim Balance Sheet Date or acquired since that date (except
property and assets operated under capital leases or sold or otherwise disposed

mortgages, Capitalized Leases, conditional sales agreements, title retention
agreements, liens or other encumbrances except Permitted Liens.

SECTION 6.4. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS; SOLVENCY.

(a) There have been furnished to the Banks consolidated balance sheets
of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and United and its Subsidiaries dated
the Balance Sheet Date and consolidated statements of operations for the
fiscal periods then ended, certified by the Accountants. In addition,
there have been furnished to the Banks consolidated balance sheets of the
Borrower and its Subsidiaries, and United and its Subsidiaries dated the
Interim Balance Sheet Date and the related consolidated statements of
operation for the fiscal quarter ending on the Interim Balance Sheet Date.
All said balance sheets and statements of operations have been prepared in
accordance with GAAP (but, in the case of any of such financial statements
which are unaudited, only to the extent GAAP is applicable to interim
unaudited reports), fairly present the financial condition of the Borrower
and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, or United and its
Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, as at the close of business on the
dates thereof and the results of operations for the periods then ended,
subject, in the case of unaudited interim financial statements, to changes
resulting from audit and normal year-end adjustments and to the absence of
complete footnotes. There are no contingent liabilities of the Borrower
and its Subsidiaries or United and its Subsidiaries involving material
amounts, known to the officers of the Borrower or United which have not
been disclosed in said balance sheets and the related notes thereto or
otherwise in writing to the Banks.

(b) The Borrower and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis and
United and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis (both before and after
giving effect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement including
the United Merger) are solvent (i.e., they have assets having a fair value
in excess of the amount required to pay their probable liabilities on their
existing debts as they become absolute and matured) and have,
51
-45-

and expect to have, the ability to pay their debts from time to time
incurred in connection therewith as such debts mature.

SECTION 6.5 NO MATERIAL CHANGES, ETC. Since the Interim Balance Sheet
Date, there have occurred no material adverse changes in the consolidated
financial condition, business or assets of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries,
taken together, or United and its Subsidiaries, taken together, as the case may
be, as shown on or reflected in the consolidated balance sheets of the Borrower
and its Subsidiaries or United and its Subsidiaries as at the Interim Balance
Sheet Date, or the consolidated statements of income for the period then ended
other than changes in the ordinary course of business which have not had any
material adverse effect either individually or in the aggregate on the
financial condition, business or assets of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries,
taken together, or United and its Subsidiaries, taken together, as the case may
be. Since the Interim Balance Sheet Date, there have not been any
Distributions (including Distributions by the Borrower and United) other than
as permitted by Section 8.5 hereof.

SECTION 6.6. FRANCHISES, PATENTS, COPYRIGHTS, ETC. The Borrower and
each of its Subsidiaries possess all franchises, patents, copyrights,
trademarks, trade names, licenses and permits, and rights in respect of the
foregoing, adequate for the conduct of their business substantially as now
conducted (other than those the absence of which would not have a material
adverse effect on the business, operations or financial condition of the
Borrower and its Subsidiaries as a whole) without known conflict with any
rights of others other than a conflict which would not have a material adverse
effect on the financial condition, business or assets of the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries as a whole.

SECTION 6.7. LITIGATION. Except as set forth on Schedule 6.7, there are
no actions, suits, proceedings or investigations of any kind pending or, to the
knowledge of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, threatened against the
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries before any court, tribunal or
administrative agency or board which, either in any case or in the aggregate,
could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the financial
condition, business, or assets of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, considered
as a whole, or materially impair the right of the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries, considered as a whole, to carry on business substantially as now
conducted, or result in any substantial liability not adequately covered by
insurance, or for which adequate reserves are not maintained on the
consolidated balance sheet or which question the validity of any of the Loan
Documents to which the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is a party, or any
action taken or to be taken pursuant hereto or thereto.

SECTION 6.8. NO MATERIALLY ADVERSE CONTRACTS, ETC. Neither the Borrower
nor any of its Subsidiaries is subject to any charter, corporate or other legal
52
-46-

restriction, or any judgment, decree, order, rule or regulation which in the
judgment of the Borrower's or such Subsidiary's officers has or could
reasonably be expected in the future to have a materially adverse effect on the
business, assets or financial condition of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries,
considered as a whole. Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is a
party to any contract or agreement which in the judgment of the Borrower's or
its Subsidiary's officers has or could reasonably be expected to have any
materially adverse effect on the financial condition, business or assets of the
Borrower and its Subsidiaries, considered as a whole, except as otherwise
reflected in adequate reserves as required by GAAP.

SECTION 6.9. COMPLIANCE WITH OTHER INSTRUMENTS, LAWS, ETC. Neither the
Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is (a) violating any provision of its
charter documents or by-laws or (b) any agreement or instrument to which any of
them may be subject or by which any of them or any of their properties may be
bound or any decree, order, judgment, or any statute, license, rule or
regulation, in a manner which could (in the case of such agreements or such
instruments) reasonably be expected to result in the imposition of substantial
penalties or materially and adversely affect the financial condition, business
or assets of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, considered as a whole.

SECTION 6.10. TAX STATUS. The Borrower and its Subsidiaries have filed
all federal, state, provincial and territorial income and all other tax
returns, reports and declarations (or obtained extensions with respect thereto)
required by applicable law to be filed by them (unless and only to the extent
that the Borrower or such Subsidiary has set aside on its books provisions
reasonably adequate for the payment of all unpaid and unreported taxes as
required by GAAP); and have paid all taxes and other governmental assessments
and charges (other than taxes, assessments and other governmental charges
imposed by jurisdictions other than the United States, Canada or any political
subdivision thereof which in the aggregate are not material to the financial
condition, business or assets of the Borrower or such Subsidiary on an
individual basis or of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated
basis) that are material in amount, shown or determined to be due on such
returns, reports and declarations, except those being contested in good faith;
and, as required by GAAP, have set aside on their books provisions reasonably
adequate for the payment of all taxes for periods subsequent to the periods to
which such returns, reports or declarations apply. Except to the extent
contested in the manner permitted in the preceding sentence, there are no
unpaid taxes in any material amount claimed by the taxing authority of any
jurisdiction to be due and owing by the Borrower or any Subsidiary, nor do the
officers of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries know of any basis for any
such claim.

SECTION 6.11. NO EVENT OF DEFAULT. No Default or Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing.
53
-47-

SECTION 6.12. HOLDING COMPANY AND INVESTMENT COMPANY ACTS. Neither the
Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is a "holding Company", or a "subsidiary
Company" of a "holding Borrower", or an "affiliate" of a "holding Company", as
such terms are defined in the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935; nor
is any of them a "registered investment Company", or an "affiliated Company" or
a "principal underwriter" of a "registered investment Company", as such terms
are defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as AMENDED.

SECTION 6.13. ABSENCE OF FINANCING STATEMENTS, ETC. Except as permitted
by Section 8.2 of this Agreement, there is no Indebtedness senior to the
Obligations, and there is no effective financing statement, security agreement,
chattel mortgage, real estate mortgage or other document filed or recorded with
any filing records, registry, or other public office, which purports to cover,
affect or give notice of any present or possible future lien on, or security
interest in, any assets or property of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries
or right thereunder.

SECTION 6.14. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS.

SECTION 6.14.1. IN GENERAL. Each Employee Benefit Plan has been
maintained and operated in compliance in all material respects with
the provisions of ERISA and/or all Applicable Canadian Pension
Legislation, as applicable, and, to the extent applicable, the Code,
including but not limited to the provisions thereunder respecting
prohibited transactions. Promptly upon the request of any Bank or the
Administrative Agent, the Borrower will furnish to the Administrative
Agent the most recently completed annual report, Form 5500, with all
required attachments, and actuarial statement required to be submitted
under Section 103(d) of ERISA, with respect to each Guaranteed Pension
Plan.

SECTION 6.14.2. TERMINABILITY OF WELFARE PLANS. Under each
Employee Benefit Plan which is an employee welfare benefit plan within
the meaning of Section 3(1) or Section 3(2)(B) of ERISA, no benefits
are due unless the event giving rise to the benefit entitlement occurs
prior to plan termination (except as required by Title I, Part 6 of
ERISA) . The Borrower or an ERISA Affiliate, as appropriate, may
terminate each such Plan at any time (or at any time subsequent to the
expiration of any applicable bargaining agreement) in the discretion
of the Borrower or such ERISA Affiliate without liability to any
Person.

SECTION 6.14.3. GUARANTEED PENSION PLANS. Each contribution
required to be made to a Guaranteed Pension Plan, whether required to
be made to avoid the incurrence of an accumulated funding deficiency,
the notice or lien provisions of Section 302(f) of ERISA,
54
-48-

or otherwise, has been timely made. No waiver of an accumulated
funding deficiency or extension of amortization periods has been
received with respect to any Guaranteed Pension Plan. No liability to
the PBGC (other than required insurance premiums, all of which have
been paid) has been incurred by the Borrower or any ERISA Affiliate
with respect to any Guaranteed Pension Plan and there has not been any
ERISA Reportable Event, or any other event or condition which presents
a material risk of termination of any Guaranteed Pension Plan by the
PBGC. Based on the latest valuation of each Guaranteed Pension Plan
(which in each case occurred within twelve months of the date of this
representation), and on the actuarial methods and assumptions employed
for that valuation, the aggregate benefit liabilities of all such
Guaranteed Pension Plans within the meaning of Section 4001 of ERISA
did not exceed the aggregate value of the assets of all such
Guaranteed Pension Plans, disregarding for this purpose the benefit
liabilities and assets of any Guaranteed Pension Plan with assets in
excess of benefit liabilities.

SECTION 6.14.4. MULTIEMPLOYER PLANS. Neither the Borrower nor
any ERISA Affiliate has incurred any material liability (including
secondary liability) to any Multiemployer Plan as a result of a
complete or partial withdrawal from such Multiemployer Plan under
Section 4201 of ERISA or as a result of a sale of assets described in
Section 4204 of ERISA. Neither the Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate
has been notified that any Multiemployer Plan is in reorganization or
insolvent under and within the meaning of Section 4241 or Section 4245
of ERISA or that any Multiemployer Plan intends to terminate or has
been terminated under Section 4041A of ERISA.

SECTION 6.15. ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE. The Borrower and its Subsidiaries
have taken all necessary steps to investigate the past and present condition
and usage of the Real Property and the operations conducted by the Borrower and
its Subsidiaries and, based upon such diligent investigation, have determined
that, except as set forth on Schedule 6.15:

(a) Neither the Borrower, its Subsidiaries, nor any operator of their
properties, is in violation, or alleged violation, of any judgment, decree,
order, law, permit, license, rule or regulation pertaining to environmental
matters, including without limitation, those arising under the Resource
Conservation and Recovery Act ("RCRA"), the Comprehensive Environmental
Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 as amended ("CERCLA"), the
Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act of 1986 ("▇▇▇▇"), the Federal
Clean Water Act, the Federal Clean Air Act, the Toxic Substances Control
Act, or any United
▇▇
-▇▇-

▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇, provincial, territorial or local
statute, regulation, ordinance, order or decree relating to health, safety,
waste transportation or disposal, or the environment (the "Environmental
Laws"), which violation would have a material adverse effect on the
business, assets or financial condition of the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis.

(b) Except as described on Schedule 6.15, neither the Borrower nor any
of its Subsidiaries has received notice from any third party including,
without limitation: any federal, state, provincial, territorial or local
governmental authority, (i) that any one of them has been identified by the
United States Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") as a potentially
responsible party under CERCLA with respect to a site listed on the
National Priorities List, 40 C.F.R. Part ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇; (ii) that any
hazardous waste, as defined by 42 U.S.C. Section 6903(5), any hazardous
substances as defined by 42 U.S.C. Section 9601(14), any pollutant or
contaminant as defined by 42 U.S.C. Section 9601(33) or any toxic
substance, oil or hazardous materials or other chemicals or substances
regulated by any Environmental Laws, excluding household hazardous waste
("Hazardous Substances"), which any one of them has generated, transported
or disposed of, has been found at any site at which a federal, state,
provincial, territorial or local agency or other third party has conducted
or has ordered that the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries conduct a
remedial investigation, removal or other response action pursuant to any
Environmental Law; or (iii) that it is or shall be a named party to any
claim, action, cause of action, complaint, legal or administrative
proceeding arising out of any third party's incurrence of costs, expenses,
losses or damages of any kind whatsoever in connection with the Release of
Hazardous Substances.

(c) (i) No portion of the Real Property or other assets of the
Borrower and its Subsidiaries has been used for the handling, processing,
storage or disposal of Hazardous Substances except in accordance with
applicable Environmental Laws, except as would not reasonably be expected
to have a material adverse effect on the business, assets or financial
condition of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis; and
no underground tank or other underground storage receptacle for Hazardous
Substances is located on such properties; (ii) in the course of any
activities conducted by the Borrower, its Subsidiaries, or operators of the
Real Property or other assets of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, no
Hazardous Substances have been generated or are being used on such
properties except in accordance with applicable Environmental Laws, except
for occurrences that would not have a material adverse effect on the
business, assets or financial condition of the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis; (iii) there have been no unpermitted
56
-50-

Releases or threatened Releases of Hazardous Substances on, upon, into or
from the Real Property or other assets of the Borrower or its Subsidiaries,
which Releases would have a material adverse effect on the value of such
properties; (iv) to the best of the Borrower's and its Subsidiaries'
knowledge, there have been no Releases on, upon, from or into any real
property in the vicinity of the Real Property or other assets of the
Borrower or its Subsidiaries which, through soil or groundwater
contamination, may have come to be located on, and which would reasonably
be expected to have a material adverse effect on the value of, such
properties; and (v) in addition, any Hazardous Substances that have been
generated on the Real Property or other assets of the Borrower or its
Subsidiaries have been transported offsite only by carriers having an
identification number issued by the EPA, treated or disposed of only by
treatment or disposal facilities maintaining valid permits as required
under applicable Environmental Laws, which transporters and facilities have
been and are, to the best of the Borrower's and its Subsidiaries'
knowledge, operating in compliance with such permits and applicable
Environmental Laws.

(d) None of the Real Property or other assets of the Borrower or its
Subsidiaries or any of the stock (or assets) being acquired with proceeds
of Loans is or shall be subject to any applicable environmental clean-up
responsibility law or environmental restrictive transfer law or regulation,
by virtue of the transactions set forth herein and contemplated hereby.

SECTION 6.16. TRUE COPIES OF CHARTER AND OTHER DOCUMENTS. Each of the
Borrower and the Guarantors have furnished the Administrative Agent copies, in
each case true and complete as of the Closing Date, of (a) all charter and
other incorporation documents (together with any amendments thereto) and (b)
by-laws (together with any amendments thereto).

SECTION 6.17. DISCLOSURE. No representation or warranty made by the
Borrower or any Guarantor in this Agreement or in any agreement, instrument,
document, certificate, statement or letter furnished to the Banks or the
Administrative Agent by or on behalf of or at the request of the Borrower and
the Guarantors in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by the
Loan Documents contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to
state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained
therein not misleading in light of the circumstances in which they are made.

SECTION 6.18. PERMITS AND GOVERNMENTAL AUTHORITY. All permits (other
than those the absence of which would not have a material adverse effect on the
business, operations or financial condition of the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries as a whole) required for the construction and operation of all
landfills currently
57
-51-

owned or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries have been obtained
and remain in full force and effect and are not subject to any appeals or
further proceedings or to any unsatisfied conditions that may allow material
modification or revocation. Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries,
nor, to the knowledge of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, the holder of such
permits is in violation of any such permits, except for any violation which
would not have a material adverse effect on the business, operations or
financial condition of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as a whole.

SECTION 7. AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS OF THE BORROWER. The Borrower agrees
that, so long as any Obligation or any Letter of Credit is outstanding or the
Banks have any obligation to make Loans, or the Issuing Bank has any obligation
to issue, extend or renew any Letters of Credit hereunder, or the Banks have
any obligations to reimburse the Issuing Bank for drawings honored under any
Letter of Credit, it shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, comply with
the following covenants:

SECTION 7.1. PUNCTUAL PAYMENT. The Borrower will duly and punctually
pay or cause to be paid the principal and interest on the Loans, all
Reimbursement Obligations, fees and other amounts provided for in this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents, all in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement and such other Loan Documents.

SECTION 7.2. MAINTENANCE OF U.S. OFFICE. The Borrower will, and will
cause each of its Subsidiaries in the United States of America to, maintain its
chief executive offices at Houston, Texas, or at such other place in the United
States of America as the Borrower shall designate upon 30 days' prior written
notice to the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 7.3. RECORDS AND ACCOUNTS. The Borrower will, and will cause
each of its Subsidiaries to, keep true and accurate records and books of
account in which full, true and correct entries will be made in accordance with
GAAP and with the requirements of all regulatory authorities and maintain
adequate accounts and reserves for all taxes (including income taxes),
depreciation, depletion, obsolescence and amortization of its properties, all
other contingencies, and all other proper reserves.

SECTION 7.4. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, CERTIFICATES AND INFORMATION. The
Borrower will deliver to the Banks:

(a) as soon as practicable, but, in any event not later than 92 days
after the end of each fiscal year of the Borrower, the consolidated balance
sheet of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as at the end of such year,
consolidated statements of cash flows, and the related consolidated
statements of operations, each setting forth in comparative form the
figures for the previous fiscal year, all such consolidated financial
58
-52-

statements to be in reasonable detail, prepared, in accordance with GAAP
and, with respect to the consolidated financial statements, certified by
Coopers & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP or by other independent auditors selected by the
Borrower and reasonably satisfactory to the Banks (the "Accountants"). In
addition, simultaneously therewith, the Borrower shall provide the Banks
with a written statement from such Accountants to the effect that they have
read a copy of this Agreement, and that, in making the examination
necessary to said certification, they have obtained no knowledge of any
Default or Event of Default, or, if such Accountants shall have obtained
knowledge of any then existing Default or Event of Default they shall
disclose in such statement any such Default or Event of Default;

(b) as soon as practicable, but in any event not later than 47 days
after the end of each of the first three fiscal quarters of each fiscal
year of the Borrower, copies of the consolidated balance sheet and
statement of operations of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as at the end
of such quarter, subject to year-end adjustments, and the related
consolidated statement of cash flows, all in reasonable detail and prepared
in accordance with GAAP (to the extent GAAP is applicable to interim
unaudited financial statements) with a certification by the principal
financial or accounting officer of the Borrower (the "CFO or the CAO") that
the consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP
(to the extent GAAP is applicable to interim unaudited financial
statements) and fairly present the consolidated financial condition of the
Borrower and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis as at the close of
business on the date thereof and the results of operations for the period
then ended, it being understood that no such statement need be accompanied
by complete footnotes;

(c) simultaneously with the delivery of the financial statements
referred to in (a) and (b) above, a certificate in the form of Exhibit F
hereto (the "Compliance Certificate") signed by the CFO or the CAO or the
Borrower's corporate treasurer, stating that the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries are in compliance with the covenants contained in Sections 7,
8 and 9 hereof as of the end of the applicable period and setting forth in
reasonable detail computations evidencing such compliance with respect to
the covenants contained in Sections 8.1(e), 8.3, 8.4, 8.5, and 9 hereof and
that no Default or Event of Default exists, provided that if the Borrower
shall at the time of issuance of such Compliance Certificate or at any
other time obtain knowledge of any Default or Event of Default, the
Borrower shall include in such certificate or otherwise deliver forthwith
to the Banks a certificate specifying the nature and period of existence
thereof and what action the Borrower proposes to take with respect thereto;
59
-53-

(d) contemporaneously with, or promptly following, the filing or
mailing thereof, copies of all material of a financial nature filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission or sent to the Borrower's and its
Subsidiaries' stockholders generally; and

(e) from time to time such other financial data and other information
as the Banks may reasonably request.

The Borrower hereby authorizes each Bank to disclose any information
obtained pursuant to this Agreement to all appropriate governmental regulatory
authorities where required by law; provided, however, this authorization shall
not be deemed to be a waiver of any rights to object to the disclosure by the
Banks of any such information which the Borrower has or may have under the
federal Right to Financial Privacy Act of 1978, as in effect from time to time,
except as to matters specifically permitted therein.

SECTION 7.5. CORPORATE EXISTENCE AND CONDUCT OF BUSINESS. The Borrower
will, and will cause each Subsidiary, to do or cause to be done all things
necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate
existence, corporate rights and franchises; and effect and maintain its foreign
qualifications (except where the failure of the Borrower or any Subsidiary to
remain so qualified would not materially adversely impair the financial
condition, business or assets of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries on a
consolidated basis), licensing, domestication or authorization except as
terminated by its Board of Directors in the exercise of its reasonable
judgment; provided that such termination would not have a material adverse
effect on the financial condition, business or assets of the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis. The Borrower will not, and will cause
its Subsidiaries not to, become obligated under any contract or binding
arrangement which, at the time it was entered into, would materially adversely
impair the financial condition, business or assets of the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis. The Borrower will, and will cause each
Subsidiary to, continue to engage primarily in the businesses now conducted by
it and in related businesses.

SECTION 7.6. MAINTENANCE OF PROPERTIES. The Borrower will, and will
cause its Subsidiaries to, cause all material properties used or useful in the
conduct of their businesses to be maintained and kept in good condition, repair
and working order (ordinary wear and tear excepted) and supplied with all
necessary equipment and cause to be made all necessary repairs, renewals,
replacements, betterments and improvements thereof, all as in the judgment of
the Borrower and its Subsidiaries may be necessary so that the businesses
carried on in connection therewith may be properly and advantageously conducted
at all times; provided, however, that nothing in this section shall prevent the
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries from discontinuing the operation and
maintenance of any of its properties if such discontinuance is, in the judgment
of
60
-54-

the Borrower or such Subsidiary, desirable in the conduct of its or their
business and which does not in the aggregate materially adversely affect the
financial condition, business or assets of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries on
a consolidated basis.

SECTION 7.7. INSURANCE. The Borrower will, and will cause its
Subsidiaries to, maintain with financially sound and reputable insurance
companies, funds or underwriters, insurance of the kinds, covering the risks
(other than risks arising out of or in any way connected with personal
liability of any officers and directors thereof) and in the relative
proportionate amounts usually carried by reasonable and prudent companies
conducting businesses similar to that of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, in
amounts substantially similar to the existing coverage policies maintained by
the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, copies of which have been provided to the
Administrative Agent. In addition, the Borrower will furnish from time to
time, upon any Bank's request, a summary of the insurance coverage of the
Borrower and its Subsidiaries, which summary shall be in form and substance
satisfactory to the Banks and, if requested by any of the Banks, will furnish
to the Administrative Agent and such Bank copies of the applicable policies.

SECTION 7.8. TAXES. The Borrower will, and will cause its Subsidiaries
to, duly pay and discharge, or cause to be paid and discharged, before the same
shall become overdue, all taxes, assessments and other governmental charges
(other than taxes, assessments and other governmental charges imposed by
jurisdictions other than the United States, Canada or any political subdivision
thereof, which in the aggregate are not material to the business, financial
conditions, or assets of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated
basis) imposed upon it and its real properties, sales and activities, or any
part thereof, or upon the income or profits therefrom, as well as all claims
for labor, materials, or supplies, which if unpaid might by law become a lien
or charge upon any of its property; provided, however, that any such tax,
assessment, charge, levy or claim need not be paid if the validity or amount
thereof shall currently be contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings
and if the Borrower or such Subsidiary shall have set aside on its books
adequate reserves with respect thereto as required by GAAP; and provided,
further, that the Borrower or such Subsidiary will pay all such taxes,
assessments, charges, levies or claims forthwith upon the commencement of
proceedings to foreclose any lien which may have attached as security therefor.

SECTION 7.9. INSPECTION OF PROPERTIES, BOOKS AND CONTRACTS. The
Borrower will, and will cause its Subsidiaries to, permit the Administrative
Agent or any Bank or any of their designated representatives, upon reasonable
notice, to visit and inspect any of the properties of the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries, to examine the books of account of the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries, or contracts (and to make copies thereof and extracts therefrom),
and to discuss the affairs,
61
-55-

finances and accounts of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries with, and to be
advised as to the same by, their officers, all at such times and intervals as
may be reasonably requested.

SECTION 7.10. COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS, CONTRACTS, LICENSES AND PERMITS;
MAINTENANCE OF MATERIAL LICENSES AND PERMITS. The Borrower will, and will
cause each Subsidiary to, (i) comply with the provisions of its charter
documents and by-laws; (ii) comply in all material respects with all agreements
and instruments by which it or any of its properties may be bound; (iii) comply
with all applicable laws and regulations (including Environmental Laws),
decrees, orders, judgments, licenses and permits, including, without
limitation, all environmental permits ("Applicable Requirements"), except where
noncompliance with such Applicable Requirements would not reasonably be
expected to have a material adverse effect in the aggregate on the consolidated
financial condition, properties or businesses of the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries; and (iv) maintain all material operating permits for all
landfills now owned or hereafter acquired; and (v) dispose of hazardous waste
only at licensed disposal facilities operating, to the best of the Borrower's
or such Subsidiary's knowledge after reasonable inquiry, in compliance with
Environmental Laws. If at any time any authorization, consent, approval,
permit or license from any officer, agency or instrumentality of any government
shall become necessary or required in order that the Borrower or any Subsidiary
may fulfill any of its obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document,
the Borrower will immediately take or cause to be taken all reasonable steps
within the power of the Borrower or such Subsidiary to obtain such
authorization, consent, approval, permit or license and furnish the Banks with
evidence thereof.

SECTION 7.11. ENVIRONMENTAL INDEMNIFICATION. The Borrower covenants and
agrees that it will indemnify and hold the Banks, the Issuing Banks and the
Administrative Agent and their respective affiliates, and each of the
representatives, agents and officers of each of the foregoing, harmless from
and against any and all claims, expense, damage, loss or liability incurred by
the Banks, the Issuing Banks or the Administrative Agent (including all costs
of legal representation incurred by the Banks, the Issuing Banks or the
Administrative Agent) relating to (a) any Release or threatened Release of
Hazardous Substances on the Real Property; (b) any violation of any
Environmental Laws or Applicable Requirements with respect to conditions at the
Real Property or other assets of the Borrower or its Subsidiaries, or the
operations conducted thereon; or (c) the investigation or remediation of
offsite locations at which the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries, or their
predecessors are alleged to have directly or indirectly Disposed of Hazardous
Substances. It is expressly acknowledged by the Borrower that this covenant of
indemnification shall survive the payment of the Loans and Reimbursement
Obligations and satisfaction of all other Obligations hereunder and shall inure
to the benefit of
62
-56-

the Banks, the Issuing Banks, the Administrative Agent and their affiliates,
successors and assigns.

SECTION 7.12. FURTHER ASSURANCES. The Borrower and the Guarantors
will cooperate with the Administrative Agent and execute such further
instruments and documents as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request
to carry out to the Banks' satisfaction the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement.

SECTION 7.13. NOTICE OF POTENTIAL CLAIMS OR LITIGATION. The Borrower
shall deliver to the Banks, within 30 days of receipt thereof, written notice
of the initiation of any action, claim, complaint, or any other notice of
dispute or potential litigation against the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries
wherein the potential liability is in excess of $10,000,000 together with a
copy of each such notice received by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries.

SECTION 7.14. NOTICE OF CERTAIN EVENTS CONCERNING INSURANCE AND
ENVIRONMENTAL CLAIMS.

(a) The Borrower will provide the Banks with written notice as to any
material cancellation or material adverse change in any insurance of the
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries within ten (10) Business Days after the

or informal) of such material cancellation or material change by any of its
insurers.

(b) The Borrower will promptly notify the Banks in writing of any of
the following events:

basis;

Borrower or any Subsidiary may be liable or for which a lien may be
imposed on the Real Property.

SECTION 7.15. NOTICE OF DEFAULT. The Borrower will promptly notify the
Banks in writing of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default. If any
Person shall give any notice or take any other action in respect of a claimed
default (whether or not constituting an Event of Default) under this Agreement
or any other note, evidence of indebtedness, indenture or other obligation
evidencing indebtedness in excess of $10,000,000 as to which the Borrower or
any of its Subsidiaries is a party or obligor, whether as principal or surety,
the Borrower shall forthwith upon obtaining actual knowledge thereof give
written notice thereof to the Banks, describing the notice of action and the
nature of the claimed default.

SECTION 7.16. USE OF PROCEEDS. The proceeds of the Loans shall be used

any way that will violate Regulations G, T, U or X of the Board of Governors of
the Federal Reserve System.

SECTION 7.17. CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS. Except as disclosed in filings made
by the Borrower and United under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 prior to
the Closing Date, and except for arm's length transactions pursuant to which
the Borrower or any Subsidiary makes payments in the ordinary course of
business upon terms no less favorable than the Borrower or such Subsidiary

of the Borrower or any Subsidiary are presently or shall be a party to any
transaction with the Borrower or any Subsidiary (other than for services as
employees, officers and directors), including any contract, agreement or other

officer, director, or any such employee has a substantial interest or is an
officer, director, trustee or partner.

long as such other Indebtedness shall be so secured; provided, that the
covenants of the Borrower and the Guarantors contained in this sentence
shall only be in effect for so long as the Borrower or any Guarantor shall
be similarly obligated under any other Indebtedness; provided, further,
that an Event of Default shall occur for so long as such other Indebtedness
becomes secured notwithstanding any actions taken by the Borrower or any
Guarantor to ratably secure the Obligations and the Guaranteed Obligations
hereunder.

SECTION 8.3. RESTRICTIONS ON INVESTMENTS. Except to the extent provided
in Section 8.4, neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary may make or permit to

surviving entity with respect to any such transaction to which the Borrower
is a party or a Subsidiary shall be the surviving entity (and

satisfied), or purchase or otherwise acquire all or substantially all of
the assets or stock of any class of, or any partnership, membership or
joint venture or other interest in, any other Person except as otherwise
provided in Section 8.3 or this Section 8.4. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Borrower and its Subsidiaries may purchase or otherwise
acquire all or substantially all of the assets or stock of any class of, or
joint venture or other interest in, any Person if the following conditions
have been met: (i) the proposed transaction will not otherwise create a

shall have received as soon as is reasonably possible an environmental
permit certificate from the CFO of the Borrower satisfactory to the Banks
concerning principal operating permits of United's principal operating
facilities to be acquired pursuant to the United Merger. Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, the ability of the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries to incur any Indebtedness in connection with any transaction
permitted pursuant to this Section 8.4 shall be governed by Section 8.1.

(b) Neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary shall sell, transfer,
convey or lease any assets or group of assets including the sale or
transfer of any property owned by the Borrower or any Subsidiary in order
then or thereafter to lease such property or lease other property which the
Borrower or such Subsidiary intends to use for substantially the same
purpose as the property being sold or transferred (except (1) transfers of
personal property among Subsidiaries of the Borrower which are wholly owned
by the Borrower and (2) so long as no Default or Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, or would result therefrom, sales of assets in
the ordinary course of business between the date hereof and the Maturity
Date with an aggregate value not greater than ten percent (10%) of
Consolidated Total Assets, as set forth in the most recent financial
statements delivered to the Banks pursuant to Section 7.4 hereof) or sell
or assign, with or without recourse, any receivables (except accounts
69
-63-

receivable more than sixty (60) days past due sold or assigned in the
ordinary course of collecting past due accounts, or pursuant to a Permitted
Receivables Transaction).

SECTION 8.5. RESTRICTED DISTRIBUTIONS AND REDEMPTIONS. Neither the
Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries will (a) declare or pay any Distributions,
or (b) redeem, convert, retire or otherwise acquire shares of any class of its
capital stock (other than in connection with a merger permitted by Section 8.4
hereof or conversion into another form of equity of any preferred shares of the

ERISA; or

(d) permit or take any action which would result in the aggregate
benefit liabilities (with the meaning of Section 4001 of ERISA) of all
Guaranteed Pension Plans exceeding the value of the aggregate assets of
such Plans, disregarding for this purpose the benefit liabilities and
assets of any such Plan with assets in excess of benefit liabilities; or

agreements by which it is bound, evidencing or securing any Indebtedness in
an aggregate amount greater than $25,000,000 for such period of time as
would, or would have permitted (assuming the giving of appropriate notice
if required) the holder or holders thereof or of any obligations issued
thereunder to accelerate the maturity thereof or terminate its commitment
with respect thereto;

(g) if the Borrower, any Guarantor or any Material Subsidiary makes an
assignment for the benefit of creditors, or admits in writing its inability

undisputed insurance coverage;

(j) if, with respect to any Guaranteed Pension Plan (or any
corresponding plan described in any Applicable Canadian Pension
Legislation), an ERISA Reportable Event or similar event under Applicable
Canadian Pension Legislation shall have occurred and the Banks shall have
determined in their reasonable discretion that such event reasonably could
be expected to result in liability of the Borrower or any Subsidiary to the
PBGC or similar Canadian authorities or the Plan in an aggregate amount
exceeding $10,000,000 and such event in the circumstances occurring
reasonably could constitute grounds for the partial or complete termination
of such Plan by the PBGC or similar Canadian authorities or for the
appointment by the appropriate United States District Court or Canadian
Court of a trustee to administer such Plan; or a trustee shall have been
appointed by the appropriate United States District Court or Canadian Court

or on behalf of the Borrower, any Guarantor, or any of their respective
stockholders, or any court or any other governmental or regulatory
authority or agency of competent jurisdiction shall make a determination
77
-71-

that, or issue a judgment, order, decree or ruling to the effect that, any
one or more of the Loan Documents is illegal, invalid or unenforceable in
accordance with the terms thereof; or

(l) if any person or group of persons (within the meaning of Section

the outstanding shares of common voting stock of the Borrower; or, during
any period of twelve consecutive calendar months, individuals who were
directors of the Borrower on the first day of such period shall cease to
constitute a majority of the board of directors of the Borrower;

then, and in any such event, so long as the same may be continuing, the
Administrative Agent may, and upon the request of the Majority Banks shall, by
notice in writing to the Borrower, declare all amounts owing with respect to
this Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents and all Reimbursement
Obligations to be, and they shall thereupon forthwith become, immediately due
and payable without presentment, demand, protest, notice of intent to
accelerate, notice of acceleration to the extent permitted by law or other
notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower;
provided that in the event of any Event of Default specified in Section 12.1(g)
or 12.1(h), all such amounts shall become immediately due and payable
automatically and without any requirement of notice from the Administrative

the unused portion of the Total Commitment hereunder, and, upon such notice
being given, such unused portion of the Total Commitment hereunder shall

all further obligations to make Loans or to issue, extend or renew Letters of
Credit hereunder. No termination of any portion of the Total Commitment
hereunder shall relieve the Borrower of any of its existing Obligations to the
Banks, the Issuing Banks or the Administrative Agent hereunder or elsewhere.
78
-72-

SECTION 12.3. REMEDIES. In case any one or more of the Events of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and whether or not the Banks
shall have accelerated the maturity of the Loans and other Obligations pursuant
to Section 12.1, each Bank, upon notice to the other Banks, if owed any amount
with respect to the Loans or the Reimbursement Obligations, may proceed to
protect and enforce its rights by suit in equity, action at law or other
appropriate proceeding, whether for the specific performance of any covenant or
agreement contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or any
instrument pursuant to which the Obligations to such Bank are evidenced,
including, without limitation, as permitted by applicable law the obtaining of
the ex parte appointment of a receiver, and, if such amount shall have become
due, by declaration or otherwise, proceed to enforce the payment thereof or any
legal or equitable right of such Bank, any recovery being subject to the terms
of Section 28 hereof. No remedy herein conferred upon any Bank or the
Administrative Agent or the holder of any Note is intended to be exclusive of
any other remedy and each and every remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in
addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at
law or in equity or by statute or any other provision of law.

SECTION 13. SETOFF. Regardless of the adequacy of any collateral,
during the continuance of an Event of Default, any deposits or other sums
credited by or due from any Bank to the Borrower or any of them and any
securities or other property of the Borrower or any of them in the possession
of such Bank may be applied to or set off against the payment of Obligations
and any and all other liabilities, direct, or indirect, absolute or contingent,
due or to become due, now existing or hereafter arising, of the Borrower to the
Banks or the Administrative Agent. Any amounts set off pursuant to this
Section 13 shall be distributed ratably in accordance with Section 30 among all
of the Banks by the Bank setting off such amounts. If any Bank fails to share
such setoff ratably, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to withhold
such Bank's share of the Borrower's payments until each of the Banks shall
have, in the aggregate, received a pro rata repayment.

SECTION 14. EXPENSES. Whether or not the transactions contemplated
herein shall be consummated, the Borrower hereby promises to reimburse the
Administrative Agent for all reasonable out-of-pocket fees and disbursements
(including all reasonable attorneys' fees) incurred or expended in connection
with the preparation, filing or recording, or interpretation of this Agreement,
the other Loan Documents, or any amendment, modification, approval, consent or
waiver hereof or thereof. The Borrower further promises to reimburse the
Administrative Agent and the Banks for all reasonable out-of-pocket fees and
disbursements (including all reasonable legal fees and the allocable cost of
in-house attorneys' fees) incurred or expended in connection with the
enforcement of any Obligations or the satisfaction of any indebtedness of the
Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or in connection with any
79
-73-

litigation, proceeding or dispute hereunder in any way related to the credit
hereunder. The Borrower also promises to pay the Administrative Agent all
reasonable out-of-pocket fees and disbursements, incurred or expended in
connection with the Competitive Bid Loan procedure under Section 4 hereof.

SECTION 15. THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT.

SECTION 15.1. APPOINTMENT, POWERS AND IMMUNITIES. Each Bank hereby
irrevocably appoints and authorizes MGT to act as Administrative Agent,
provided, however, the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized to serve only
as administrative and documentation agent for the Banks and to exercise such
powers as are reasonably incidental thereto and as are set forth in this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The Administrative Agent hereby
acknowledges that it does not have the authority to negotiate any agreement
which would bind the Banks or agree to any amendment, waiver or modification of
any of the Loan Documents or bind the Banks except as set forth in this
Agreement or the Loan Documents. Except as provided in this Agreement, and in
the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall take action or refrain
from acting only upon instructions of the Banks. It is agreed that the duties,
rights, privileges and immunities of the Issuing Banks, in their capacity as
issuers of Letters of Credit hereunder, shall be identical to the duties,
rights, privileges and immunities of the Administrative Agent as provided in
this Section 15. The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or
responsibilities or any fiduciary relationship with any Bank except those
expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Neither
the Administrative Agent nor any of its affiliates shall be responsible to the
Banks for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by the
Borrower or any other Person whether contained herein or otherwise or for the
value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of
this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any other document referred to or
provided for herein or therein or for any failure by the Borrower or any other
Person to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder or in respect of the
Notes. The Administrative Agent may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact and
shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any such agents or
attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care. The Administrative
Agent, the Agents and any of their directors, officers, employees or agents
shall not be responsible for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or
them hereunder or in connection herewith, except for its or their own gross
negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent in its separate
capacity as a Bank shall have the same rights and powers hereunder as any other
Bank.

SECTION 15.2. ACTIONS BY ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT. The Administrative Agent
shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this
Agreement as reasonably deemed appropriate unless it shall first have received
the consent of the Majority Banks (or, when expressly required hereby, all of
the
80
-74-

Banks), and shall be indemnified to its reasonable 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 Administrative Agent
shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting,
under this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents in accordance with the
instruction of the Majority Banks (or, when expressly required hereby or
thereby, all of the Banks), and such instruction and any action taken or
failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon the Banks and all future
holders of the Notes or any Letter of Credit Participation.

SECTION 15.3. INDEMNIFICATION. Without limiting the obligations of the
Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document, the Banks agree to
indemnify the Administrative Agent, its affiliates and its respective
directors, officers, agents and employees (to the extent not reimbursed by the
Borrower) ratably in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages
for any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions,
judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature
whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against
the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this
Agreement or any other Loan Document or any documents contemplated by or
referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or
thereby or the enforcement of any of the terms hereof or thereof or of any such
other documents; provided, that no Bank shall be liable for any of the
foregoing to the extent they arise from the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of the Administrative Agent (or any agent thereof), IT BEING THE
INTENT OF THE PARTIES HERETO THAT ALL SUCH INDEMNIFIED PARTIES SHALL BE
INDEMNIFIED FOR THEIR ORDINARY SOLE OR CONTRIBUTORY NEGLIGENCE.

SECTION 15.4. REIMBURSEMENT. Without limiting the provisions of
Sections 5.1(a), 5.13, and 13, the Administrative Agent shall not be obliged to
make available to any Person any sum which the Administrative Agent is
expecting to receive for the account of that Person until the Administrative
Agent has determined that it has received that sum. The Administrative Agent
may, however, disburse funds prior to determining that the sums which the
Administrative Agent expects to receive have been finally and unconditionally
paid to the Administrative Agent, if the Administrative Agent wishes to do so.
If and to the extent that the Administrative Agent does disburse funds and it
later becomes apparent that the Administrative Agent did not then receive a
payment in an amount equal to the sum paid out, then any Person to whom the
Administrative Agent made the funds available shall, on demand from the
Administrative Agent, refund to the Administrative Agent the sum paid to that
Person. If, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, the distribution of
any amount received by it in such capacity hereunder or under the other Loan
Documents might involve it in liability, it may refrain from making
distribution until its right to
81
-75-

make distribution shall have been adjudicated by a court of competent
jurisdiction. If a court of competent jurisdiction shall adjudge that any
amount received and distributed by the Administrative Agent is to be repaid,
each Person to whom any such distribution shall have been made shall either
repay to the Administrative Agent its proportionate share of the amount so
adjudged to be repaid or shall pay over the same in such manner and to such
Persons as shall be determined by such court.

SECTION 15.5. DOCUMENTS. The Administrative Agent will forward to each
Bank, promptly after receipt thereof, a copy of each notice or other document
furnished to the Administrative Agent for such Bank hereunder; provided,
however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may
furnish to the Banks a monthly summary with respect to Letters of Credit issued
hereunder in lieu of copies of the related Letter of Credit Applications.

SECTION 15.6. NON-RELIANCE ON ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND OTHER BANKS.
Each Bank represents that it has, independently and without reliance on the
Administrative Agent, the Agents or any other Bank, and based on such documents
and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of the
financial condition and affairs of the Borrower and the Guarantors and the
decision to enter into this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and agrees
that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent,
the Agent or any other Bank, and based on such documents and information as it
shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own appraisals and
decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement or any other Loan
Document. Except as herein expressly provided to the contrary, the
Administrative Agent shall not be required to keep informed as to the
performance or observance by the Borrower and the Guarantors of this Agreement,
the other Loan Documents or any other document referred to or provided for
herein or therein or by any other Person of any other agreement or to make
inquiry of, or to inspect the properties or books of, any Person. Except for
notices, reports and other documents and information expressly required to be
furnished to the Banks by the Administrative Agent hereunder, the
Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any
Bank with any credit or other information concerning any person which may come
into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of their affiliates.
Each Bank shall have access to all documents relating to the Administrative
Agent's performance of their duties hereunder at such Bank's request. Unless
any Bank shall promptly object to any action taken by the Administrative Agent
hereunder of which such Bank has actual knowledge (other than actions which
require the prior consent of such Bank in accordance with the terms hereof or
to which the provisions of Section 15.8 are applicable and other than actions
which constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct by the Administrative
Agent), such Bank shall be presumed to have approved the same.

SECTION 15.7. RESIGNATION OF ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT. The Administrative
Agent may resign at any time by giving 60 days' prior written notice thereof to
the Banks and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Banks (other than
the resigning Administrative Agent) shall have the right to appoint a successor
Administrative Agent from among the Banks. If no successor to the
Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Banks and shall have
accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative
Agent's giving of notice of resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent
may, on behalf of the Banks, appoint a successor Administrative Agent from
among the remaining Banks, which shall be a financial institution having a
combined capital and surplus in excess of $1,000,000,000. Upon the acceptance
of any appointment as the Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor
Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon
succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties
of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent
shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. After the
retiring Administrative Agent's resignation, the provisions of this Agreement
shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or
omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as the Administrative Agent. Any
new Issuing Bank appointed pursuant to this Section 15.7 shall immediately
issue new Letters of Credit in place of Letters of Credit previously issued or,
if acceptable to the resigning Issuing Bank, issue letters of credit in favor
of the resigning Issuing Bank as security for the outstanding Letters of Credit
and shall in due course replace all Letters of Credit previously issued by the
resigning Issuing Bank.

SECTION 15.8. ACTION BY THE BANKS, CONSENTS, AMENDMENTS, WAIVERS, ETC.
Any action to be taken (including the giving of notice) may be taken, any
consent or approval required or permitted by this Agreement or any other Loan
Document to be given by the Banks may be given, any term of this Agreement, any
other Loan Document or any other instrument, document or agreement related to
this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or mentioned therein may be amended,
and the performance or observance by the Borrower or any other Person of any of
the terms thereof and any Default or Event of Default (as defined in any of the
above-referenced documents or instruments) may be waived (either generally or
in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively), only with
the written consent of the Majority Banks; provided, however, that no such
consent or amendment which affects the rights, duties or liabilities of the
Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank shall be effective without the written
consent of the Administrative Agent or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amendment, waiver or consent shall do any of
the following unless in writing and signed by ALL of the Banks (a) increase the
principal amount of the Total Commitment (or subject any Bank to any additional
obligations), (b) reduce the principal of or interest on the Notes (including,
without limitation, interest on overdue amounts) or any fees payable hereunder,
(c) postpone any date fixed for any payment in respect
83
-77-

of principal or interest (including, without limitation, interest on overdue
amounts) on the Notes or any fee hereunder; (d) change the definition of
"Majority Banks" or number of Banks which shall be required for the Banks or
any of them to take any action under the Loan Documents; (e) amend this Section
15.8; (f) change the Commitment Percentage of any Bank, except as permitted
under Section 19 hereof, (g) change the Total Commitment Percentage of any
Bank, or (h) release the Borrower or any Guarantor from its obligations
hereunder (except as expressly set forth herein).

SECTION 16. INDEMNIFICATION. The Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold
harmless the Banks, the Agents, the Issuing Banks, and the Administrative Agent
and their affiliates, as well as the Banks' and the Administrative Agent's and
their affiliates' shareholders, directors, agents, officers, subsidiaries and
affiliates, from and against all damages, losses, settlement payments,
obligations, liabilities, claims, suits, penalties, assessments, citations,
directives, demands, judgments, actions or causes of action, whether
statutorily created or under the common law, and reasonable costs and expenses
incurred, suffered, sustained or required to be paid by an indemnified party by
reason of or resulting from the transactions contemplated hereby, except any of
the foregoing which result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of
any indemnified party. In any investigation, enforcement matter, proceeding or
litigation, or the preparation therefor, the Banks and the Administrative Agent
shall be entitled to select their own counsel and, in addition to the foregoing
indemnity, the Borrower agrees to pay promptly the reasonable fees and expenses
of such counsel. In the event of the commencement of any such proceeding or
litigation against the Banks or Administrative Agent by third parties, the
Borrower shall be entitled to participate in such proceeding or litigation with
counsel of their choice at their expense, provided that such counsel shall be
reasonably satisfactory to the Banks or Administrative Agent. The covenants of
this Section 16 shall survive payment or satisfaction of payment of amounts
owing with respect to any Note or any other Loan Document and satisfaction of
all the Obligations hereunder, IT BEING THE INTENT OF THE PARTIES HERETO THAT
ALL SUCH INDEMNIFIED PARTIES SHALL BE INDEMNIFIED FOR THEIR ORDINARY SOLE OR
CONTRIBUTORY NEGLIGENCE.

SECTION 17. WITHHOLDING TAXES. The Borrower hereby agrees that:

(a) Any and all payments made by the Borrower hereunder shall be made
free and clear of, and without deduction for, any and all present or future
taxes, levies, fees, duties, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings
of any nature whatsoever, excluding, in the case of the Administrative
Agent or the Banks or any holder of the Notes, (i) taxes imposed on, or
measured by, its net income or profits, (ii) franchise taxes imposed on it,
(iii) taxes imposed by any jurisdiction as a direct
84
-78-

consequence of it, or any of its affiliates, having a present or former
connection with such jurisdiction, including, without limitation, being
organized, existing or qualified to do business, doing business or
maintaining a permanent establishment or office in such jurisdiction, and
(iv) taxes imposed by reason of its failure to comply with any applicable
certification, identification, information, documentation or other
reporting requirement (all such non-excluded taxes being hereinafter
referred to as "Indemnifiable Taxes"). In the event that any withholding
or deduction from any payment to be made by the Borrower hereunder is
required in respect of any Indemnifiable Taxes pursuant to any applicable
law, or governmental rule or regulation, then the Borrower will (i) direct
to the relevant taxing authority the full amount required to be so withheld
or deducted, (ii) forward to the Administrative Agent for delivery to the
applicable Bank an official receipt or other documentation satisfactory to
the Administrative Agent and the applicable Bank evidencing such payment to
such taxing authority, and (iii) direct to the Administrative Agent for the
account of the relevant Banks such additional amount or amounts as is
necessary to ensure that the net amount actually received by each relevant
Bank will equal the full amount such Bank would have received had no such
withholding or deduction (including any Indemnifiable Taxes on such
additional amounts) been required. Moreover, if any Indemnifiable Taxes
are directly asserted against the Administrative Agent or any Bank with
respect to any payment received by the Administrative Agent or such Bank by
reason of the Borrower's failure to properly deduct and withhold such
Indemnifiable Taxes from such payment, the Administrative Agent or such
Bank may pay such Indemnifiable Taxes and the Borrower will promptly pay
all such additional amounts (including any penalties, interest or
reasonable expenses) as is necessary in order that the net amount received
by such Person after the payment of such Indemnifiable Taxes (including any
Indemnifiable Taxes on such additional amount) shall equal the amount such
Person would have received had not such Indemnifiable Taxes been asserted.
Any such payment shall be made promptly after the receipt by the Borrower
from the Administrative Agent or such Bank, as the case may be, of a
written statement setting forth in reasonable detail the amount of the
Indemnifiable Taxes and the basis of the claim.

(b) The Borrower shall pay any present or future stamp or documentary
taxes or any other excise or any other 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 Document
("Other Taxes").

(c) The Borrower hereby indemnify and holds harmless the
Administrative Agent and each Bank for the full amount of Indemnifiable
85
-79-

Taxes or Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Indemnifiable
Taxes or Other Taxes imposed on amounts payable under this Section 17) paid
by the Administrative Agent or such Bank, as the case may be, and any
liability (including penalties, interest and reasonable expenses) arising
therefrom or with respect thereto, by reason of the Borrower's failure to
properly deduct and withhold Indemnifiable Taxes pursuant to paragraph (a)
above or to properly pay Other Taxes pursuant to paragraph (b) above. Any
indemnification payment from the Borrower under the preceding sentence
shall be made promptly after receipt by the Borrower from the
Administrative Agent or Bank of a written statement setting forth in
reasonable detail the amount of such Indemnifiable Taxes or such Other
Taxes, as the case may be, and the basis of the claim.

(d) If the Borrower pays any amount under this Section 17 to the
Administrative Agent or any Bank and such payee knowingly receives a refund
of any taxes with respect to which such amount was paid, the Administrative
Agent or such Bank, as the case may be, shall pay to the Borrower the
amount of such refund promptly following the receipt thereof by such payee.

(e) In the event any taxing authority notifies any of the Borrower
that any of them has improperly failed to deduct or withhold any taxes
(other than Indemnifiable Taxes) from a payment made hereunder to the
Administrative Agent or any Bank, the Borrower shall timely and fully pay
such taxes to such taxing authority.

(f) The Administrative Agent or the Banks shall, upon the request of
the Borrower, take reasonable measures to avoid or mitigate the amount of
Indemnifiable Taxes required to be deducted or withheld from any payment
made hereunder if such measures can be taken without such Person in its
sole judgment suffering any legal, regulatory or economic disadvantage.

(g) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the
parties hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Borrower contained
in this Section 17 shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations.

SECTION 18. SURVIVAL OF COVENANTS, ETC. Unless otherwise stated herein,
all covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made herein, in the
other Loan Documents or in any documents or other papers delivered by or on
behalf of the Borrower or any Guarantor pursuant hereto shall be deemed to have
been relied upon by the Banks, the Issuing Banks and the Administrative Agent,
notwithstanding any investigation heretofore or hereafter made by them, and
shall survive the making by the Banks of the Loans and the issuance, extension
or renewal of any Letters of Credit by any Issuing Bank, as
86
-80-

herein contemplated, and shall continue in full force and effect so long as any
amount due under this Agreement, any Obligation, any Letter of Credit or any
Note remains outstanding and unpaid or any Bank has any obligation to make any
Loans or any Issuing Bank has any obligation to issue, extend, or renew any
Letters of Credit hereunder. All statements contained in any certificate or
other paper delivered by or on behalf of the Borrower pursuant hereto or in
connection with the transactions contemplated hereby shall constitute
representations and warranties by the Borrower hereunder.

SECTION 19. ASSIGNMENT AND PARTICIPATION. It is understood and agreed
that each Bank shall have the right to assign at any time all or a portion of
its Commitment Percentage and interests in the risk relating to the Loans,
outstanding Letters of Credit and its Commitment hereunder in an amount equal
to or greater than $5,000,000 to additional banks or other financial
institutions with the prior written approval of the Administrative Agent and,
so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower,
which approvals shall not be unreasonably withheld. Any Bank may at any time,
and from time to time, assign to any branch, lending office, or affiliate or
such Bank all or any part of its rights and obligations under the Loan
Documents by notice to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower. It is
further agreed that each bank or other financial institution which executes and
delivers to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower hereunder an Assignment
and Acceptance substantially in the form of Exhibit G hereto (an "Assignment
and Acceptance") together with an assignment fee in the amount of $2,500
payable by the assigning Bank to the Administrative Agent, shall, on the date
specified in such Assignment and Acceptance, become a party to this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents for all purposes of this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents, and its portion of the Commitment, the Loans and Letters of
Credit shall be as set forth in such Assignment and Acceptance. The Bank
assignor thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder
have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish
its rights and be released from its obligations under this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents. Upon the execution and delivery of such Assignment and
Acceptance, (a) the Borrower shall issue to the assignee bank or other
financial institution Notes in the amount of such bank's or other financial
institution's Commitment dated the date of the assignment or such other date as
may be specified by the Administrative Agent, and otherwise completed in
substantially the form of Exhibits A or B, and to the extent any assigning Bank
has retained a portion of its obligations hereunder, a replacement Syndicated
Note, to the assigning Bank reflecting its assignment; (b) to the extent
applicable, the Borrower shall issue a Competitive Bid Note in substantially
the form of Exhibit C (and a replacement Competitive Bid Note) or the
Administrative Agent shall make appropriate entries on the Competitive Bid Loan
Accounts to reflect such assignment of Competitive Bid Loan(s); (c) the
Administrative Agent shall distribute to the Borrower, the Banks and such bank
or financial
87
-81-

institution a schedule reflecting such changes; and (d) this Agreement shall be
deemed to be appropriately amended to reflect (i) the status of the bank or
financial institution as a party hereto and (ii) the status and rights of the
Banks hereunder.

Each Bank shall also have the right to grant participations to one or more
banks or other financial institutions in its Commitment, the Loans and
outstanding Letters of Credit. The documents evidencing any such participation
shall limit such participating bank's or financial institution's voting rights
with respect to this Agreement to the matters set forth in Section 15.8 which
require the approval of all Banks.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no assignment or participation shall operate
to increase the Total Commitment hereunder or otherwise alter the substantive
terms of this Agreement, and no Bank which retains a Commitment hereunder shall
have a Commitment of less than $10,000,000, as such amount may be reduced upon
reductions in the Total Commitment pursuant to Section 2.3 hereof.

Anything contained in this Section 19 to the contrary notwithstanding, any
Bank may at any time pledge all or any portion of its interest and rights under
this Agreement (including all or any portion of its Notes) to any of the twelve
Federal Reserve Banks organized under Section 4 of the Federal Reserve Act, 12
U.S.C. Section 341. No such pledge or the enforcement thereof shall release
the pledgor Bank from its obligations hereunder or under any of the other Loan
Documents.

SECTION 20. PARTIES IN INTEREST. All the terms of this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and
be enforceable by the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto
and thereto; provided, that the Borrower shall not assign or transfer its
rights or obligations hereunder or thereunder without the prior written consent
of each of the Banks.

SECTION 21. NOTICES, ETC. Except as otherwise expressly provided in
this Agreement, all notices and other communications made or required to be

Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not define or limit
the provisions hereof. This Agreement and any amendment hereof may be executed
in several counterparts and by each party on a separate counterpart, each of

together shall constitute one instrument. In proving this Agreement it shall
not be necessary to produce or account for more than one such counterpart
signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought.

SECTION 23. CONSENTS, ETC. Neither this Agreement nor any term hereof
may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated, except as provided in this
Section 23, subject to the provisions of Section 15.8. No waiver shall extend
to or affect any obligation not expressly waived or impair any right consequent
thereon. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, any consent
or approval required or permitted by this Agreement to be given by the Banks
may be given, and any term of this Agreement or of any other instrument related
hereto or mentioned herein may be amended, and the performance or observance by
the Borrower of any terms of this Agreement or such other instrument or the
continuance of any Default or Event of Default may be waived (either generally
or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively) with,

the
89
-83-

extent permitted by law, no course of dealing or delay or omission on the part
of any of the Banks, the Issuing Banks or the Administrative Agent in
exercising any right shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise be
prejudicial thereto. No notice to or demand upon the Borrower shall entitle
the Borrower to other or further notice or demand in similar or other
circumstances.

SECTION 24. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE
LAW, EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO
A JURY TRIAL WITH RESPECT TO ANY ACTION OR CLAIM ARISING OUT OF ANY DISPUTE IN
CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, THE NOTES OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS,

RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS. EXCEPT AS PROHIBITED BY LAW, THE BORROWER AND THE
GUARANTORS HEREBY WAIVE ANY RIGHT ANY OF THEM MAY HAVE TO CLAIM OR RECOVER IN
ANY LITIGATION REFERRED TO IN THE PRECEDING SENTENCE ANY SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY,
PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR ANY DAMAGES OTHER THAN, OR IN ADDITION TO,
ACTUAL DAMAGES. THE BORROWER AND EACH OF THE GUARANTORS EACH (A) CERTIFIES
THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY BANK, ANY ISSUING BANK, THE
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY AGENT HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT
SUCH BANK, SUCH ISSUING BANK, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR SUCH AGENT WOULD NOT,

DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK AND OF ANY NEW YORK STATE
COURT SITTING IN THE CITY OF NEW YORK IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUIT TO ENFORCE
THE RIGHTS OF THE BANKS, THE ISSUING BANKS OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT UNDER

90
-84-

SECTION 26. SEVERABILITY. The provisions of this Agreement are
severable and if any one clause or provision hereof shall be held invalid or
unenforceable in whole or in part in any jurisdiction, then such invalidity or
unenforceability shall affect only such clause or provision, or part thereof,

provision in any other jurisdiction, or any other clause or provision of this
Agreement in any jurisdiction.

SECTION 27. GUARANTY.

SECTION 27.1. GUARANTY. For value received and hereby acknowledged and
as an inducement to the Banks and the Issuing Banks to make the Loans available
to the Borrower, and issue, extend or renew Letters of Credit for the account
of the Borrower, the Guarantors each hereby unconditionally and irrevocably
guarantee (a) the full punctual payment when due, whether at stated maturity,
by acceleration or otherwise, of all Obligations of the Borrower now or
hereafter existing whether for principal, interest, fees, expenses or
otherwise, and (b) the strict performance and observance by the Borrower of all
agreements, warranties and covenants applicable to the Borrower in the Loan
Documents and (c) the obligations of the Borrower under the Loan Documents
(such Obligations collectively being hereafter referred to as the "Guaranteed
Obligations").

SECTION 27.2. GUARANTY ABSOLUTE. Each of the Guarantors guarantees that
the Guaranteed Obligations will be paid strictly in accordance with the terms
hereof, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect
in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of any Bank, any
Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent with respect thereto. The liability
of the Guarantors under the guaranty granted under this Agreement with regard
to the Guaranteed Obligations shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective
of:

(a) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any
other term of, all or any of its Guaranteed Obligations or any other
amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from this Agreement or
any other Loan Document (with regard to such Guaranteed Obligations);
91
-85-

(b) any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from
any other guaranty for all or any of its Guaranteed Obligations;

(d) any acceptance of any partial payment(s) from the Borrower or the
other Guarantor; or

(e) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense
available to, or a discharge of, any of the Borrower in respect of its
Obligations under any Loan Document.

The guaranty under this Agreement shall continue to be effective or be
reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any Guaranteed
Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the Banks, the Issuing
Banks or the Administrative Agent upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or
reorganization of the Borrower or otherwise, all as though such payment had not
been made.

SECTION 27.3. EFFECTIVENESS; ENFORCEMENT. The guaranty under this
Agreement shall be effective and shall be deemed to be made with respect to
each Loan and each Letter of Credit as of the time it is made, issued or
extended, or becomes a Letter of Credit under this Agreement, as applicable.
No invalidity, irregularity or unenforceability by reason of any bankruptcy or
similar law, or any law or order of any government or agency thereof purporting
to reduce, amend or otherwise affect any liability of the Borrower, and no
defect in or insufficiency or want of powers of the Borrower or irregular or
improperly recorded exercise thereof, shall impair, affect, be a defense to or
claim against such guaranty. The guaranty under this Agreement is a continuing
guaranty and shall (a) survive any termination of this Agreement, and (b)
remain in full force and effect until payment in full of, and performance of,
all Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Agreement.
Notwithstanding anything set forth in this Section 27 to the contrary, (x)
Sanifill shall be released from its guaranty obligations upon the satisfaction
(as determined in the Administrative Agent's judgment and evidenced by a
release executed by the Administrative Agent) of the Prudential Private
Placement Debt and the Sanifill Convertible Subordinated Debt, and (y) United
shall be released from its guaranty obligations upon the satisfaction (as
determined in the Administrative Agent's judgment and evidenced by a release
executed by the Administrative Agent) of the United Indenture and the United
Senior Secured Notes. The guaranty under this Agreement is made for the
benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Banks and their
successors and assigns, and may be enforced from time to time as often as
occasion therefor may arise and without requirement on the part of the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks
92
-86-

or the Banks first to exercise any rights against the Borrower, or to resort to
any other source or means of obtaining payment of any of the said obligations
or to elect any other remedy.

SECTION 27.4. WAIVER. Except as otherwise specifically provided in any
of the Loan Documents, each of the Guarantors hereby waives promptness,
diligence, protest, notice of protest, all suretyship defenses, notice of
acceptance and any other notice with respect to any of its Guaranteed
Obligations and the guaranty under this Agreement and any requirement that the
Banks, the Issuing Banks or the Administrative Agent protect, secure, perfect
any security interest or lien or any property subject thereto or exhaust any
right or take any action against the Borrower or any other Person. Each of the
Guarantors also irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, all
defenses which at any time may be available to it in respect of its Guaranteed
Obligations by virtue of any statute of limitations, valuation, stay,
moratorium law or other similar law now or hereafter in effect.

SECTION 27.5. EXPENSES. Each of the Guarantors hereby promises to
reimburse (a) the Administrative Agent for all reasonable out-of-pocket fees
and disbursements (including all reasonable attorneys' fees), incurred or
expended in connection with the preparation, filing or recording, or
interpretation of the guaranty under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents
to which such Guarantor is a party, or any amendment, modification, approval,
consent or waiver hereof or thereof, and (b) the Administrative Agent, the
Issuing Banks and the Banks and their respective affiliates for all reasonable
out-of-pocket fees and disbursements (including reasonable attorneys' fees),
incurred or expended in connection with the enforcement of its Guaranteed
Obligations (whether or not legal proceedings are instituted). The Guarantors
will pay any taxes (including any interest and penalties in respect thereof)
other than the Banks' taxes based on overall income or profits, payable on or
with respect to the transactions contemplated by the guaranty under this
Agreement, each of the Guarantors hereby agreeing jointly and severally to
indemnify each Bank with respect thereto.

SECTION 27.6. CONCERNING JOINT AND SEVERAL LIABILITY OF THE GUARANTORS.

(a) Each of the Guarantors hereby irrevocably and unconditionally
accepts, not merely as a surety but also as a co-debtor, joint and several
liability with the Borrower, with respect to the payment and performance of
all of its Guaranteed Obligations (including, without limitation, any
Guaranteed Obligations arising under this Section 27), it being the
intention of the parties hereto that all such Guaranteed Obligations shall
be the joint and several Guaranteed Obligations of such Guarantor and the
Borrower without preferences or distinction among them.
93
-87-

(b) If and to the extent that the Borrower shall fail to make any
payment with respect to any of its Guaranteed Obligations as and when due
or to perform any of its Guaranteed Obligations in accordance with the
terms thereof, then in each such event the applicable Guarantor will make
such payment with respect to, or perform, such Guaranteed Obligation.

(c) The Guaranteed Obligations of each Guarantor under the provisions
of this Section 27 constitute full recourse obligations of such Guarantor
enforceable against such Guarantor to the full extent of its properties and
assets, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of this
Agreement or any other circumstance whatsoever.

(d) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, each of
the Guarantors hereby waives notice of acceptance of its joint and several
liability, notice of any Loans made, or Letters of Credit issued under this
Agreement, notice of any action at any time taken or omitted by the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks or the Banks under or in respect of
any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and, generally, to the extent permitted
by applicable law, all demands, notices and other formalities of every kind
in connection with this Agreement. Each of the Guarantors hereby assents
to, and waives notice of, any extension or postponement of the time for the
payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the acceptance of any payment
of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the acceptance of any partial payment
thereon, any waiver, consent or other action or acquiescence by the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks or the Banks at any time or times
in respect of any Default or Event of Default by the Borrower or the
Guarantors in the performance or satisfaction of any term, covenant,
condition or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, any
and all other indulgences whatsoever by the Administrative Agent, the
Issuing Banks or the Banks in respect of any of the Guaranteed Obligations,
and the taking, addition, substitution or release, in whole or in part, at
any time or times, of any security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations or
the addition, substitution or release, in whole or in part, of the Borrower
or any Guarantor. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each
of the Guarantors assents to any other action or delay in acting or failure
to act on the part of the Banks, the Issuing Banks or the Administrative
Agent with respect to the failure by the Borrower or any Guarantor to
comply with its respective Obligations or Guaranteed Obligations,
including, without limitation, any failure strictly or diligently to assert
any right or to pursue any remedy or to comply fully with applicable laws
or regulations thereunder, which might, but for the provisions of this
Section 27, afford grounds for terminating, discharging or relieving the
Guarantors, in whole or in part, from any of the Guaranteed Obligations
under this
94
-88-

Section 27, it being the intention of the Guarantors that, so long as any
of the Guaranteed Obligations hereunder remain unsatisfied, the Guaranteed
Obligations of each of the Guarantors under this Section 27 shall not be
discharged except by performance and then only to the extent of such
performance. The Guaranteed Obligations of each of the Guarantors under
this Section 27 shall not be diminished or rendered unenforceable by any
winding up, reorganization, arrangement, liquidation, reconstruction or
similar proceeding with respect to the Borrower or any of the Guarantors or
the Banks, the Issuing Banks or the Administrative Agent. The joint and
several liability of each of the Guarantors hereunder shall continue in
full force and effect notwithstanding any absorption, merger,
consolidation, amalgamation or any other change whatsoever in the name,
membership, constitution or place of formation of the Borrower or the
Guarantors, the Banks, the Issuing Banks or the Administrative Agent.

(e) The Guarantors shall be liable under the Guaranty under this
Section 27 only for the maximum amount of such liabilities that can be
incurred under applicable law without rendering this Agreement, as it
relates to the guaranty under this Section 27, voidable under applicable
law relating to fraudulent conveyance and fraudulent transfer, and not for
any greater amount. Accordingly, if any obligation under any provision of
the guaranty under this Section 27 shall be declared to be invalid or
unenforceable in any respect or to any extent, it is the stated intention
and agreement of the Guarantors, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing
Banks and the Banks that any balance of the obligation created by such
provision and all other obligations of the Guarantors under this Section 27
to the Banks, the Issuing Banks or the Administrative Agent shall remain
valid and enforceable, and that all sums not in excess of those permitted
under applicable law shall remain fully collectible by the Banks, the
Issuing Banks and the Administrative Agent from the Borrower or the
Guarantors, as the case may be.

(f) The provisions of this Section 27 are made for the benefit of the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Banks and their successors
and assigns, and may be enforced in good faith by them from time to time
against the Guarantors as often as occasion therefor may arise and without
requirement on the part of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks or
the Banks first to marshal any of their claims or to exercise any of their
rights against the Borrower or the Guarantors or to exhaust any remedies
available to them against the Borrower or the Guarantors or to resort to
any other source or means of obtaining payment of any of the obligations
hereunder or to elect any other remedy. The provisions of this Section 27
shall remain in effect until all of the Guaranteed Obligations shall have
been paid in full or otherwise fully satisfied and the Commitments have
expired and all outstanding Letters of Credit have
95
-89-

expired, matured or otherwise been terminated. If at any time, any
payment, or any part thereof, made in respect of any of the Guaranteed
Obligations, is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the
Banks, the Issuing Banks or the Administrative Agent upon the insolvency,
bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower or any of the Guarantors, or
otherwise, the provisions of this Section 27 will forthwith be reinstated
in effect, as though such payment had not been made.

SECTION 27.7. WAIVER. Until the final payment and performance in full
of all of the Obligations, neither of the Guarantors shall exercise and each of
the Guarantors hereby waives any rights such Guarantor may have against the
Borrower or the other Guarantor arising as a result of payment by such
Guarantor hereunder, by way of subrogation, reimbursement, restitution,
contribution or otherwise, and will not prove any claim in competition with the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks or any Bank in respect of any payment
hereunder in any bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization case or proceedings
of any nature; such Guarantor will not claim any setoff, recoupment or
counterclaim against the Borrower or the other Guarantor in respect of any
liability of the Borrower to such Guarantor; and such Guarantor waives any
benefit of and any right to participate in any collateral security which may be
held by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks or any Bank.

SECTION 27.8. SUBROGATION; SUBORDINATION. The payment of any amounts
due with respect to any indebtedness of the Borrower for money borrowed or
credit received now or hereafter owed to either of the Guarantors is hereby
subordinated to the prior payment in full of all of the Obligations. Each of
the Guarantors agrees that, after the occurrence of any default in the payment
or performance of any of the Obligations, such Guarantor will not demand, ▇▇▇
for or otherwise attempt to collect any such indebtedness of the Borrower or
the other Guarantor to such Guarantor until all of the Obligations shall have
been paid in full. If, notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, either of the
Guarantors shall collect, enforce or receive any amounts in respect of such
indebtedness while any Obligations are still outstanding, such amounts shall be
collected, enforced and received by such Guarantor as trustee for the Banks,
the Issuing Banks and the Administrative Agent and be paid over to the
Administrative Agent at Default, for the benefit of the Banks, the Issuing
Banks, and the Administrative Agent on account of the Obligations without
affecting in any manner the liability of such Guarantor under the other
provisions hereof.

28 PARI PASSU TREATMENT.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, each
payment or prepayment of principal and interest received after the
occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder shall be distributed pari
96
-90-

passu among the Banks, in accordance with the aggregate outstanding
principal amount of the Obligations owing to each Bank divided by the
aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Obligations.

(b) Following the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event
of Default, each Bank agrees that if it shall, through the exercise of a
right of banker's lien, setoff or counterclaim against any Borrower
(pursuant to Section 13 or otherwise), including a secured claim under
Section 506 of the Bankruptcy Code or other security or interest arising
from or in lieu of, such secured claim, received by such Bank under any
applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law or otherwise, obtain
payment (voluntary or involuntary) in respect of the Notes, Loans,
Reimbursement Obligations and other Obligations held by it (other than
pursuant to Section 5.5, Section 5.6 or Section 5.8) as a result of which
the unpaid principal portion of the Notes and the Obligations held by it
shall be proportionately less than the unpaid principal portion of the
Notes and Obligations held by any other Bank, it shall be deemed to have
simultaneously purchased from such other Bank a participation in the Notes
and Obligations held by such other Bank, so that the aggregate unpaid
principal amount of the Notes, Obligations and participations in Notes and
Obligations held by each Bank shall be in the same proportion to the
aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Notes and Obligations then
outstanding as the principal amount of the Notes and other Obligations held
by it prior to such exercise of banker's lien, setoff or counterclaim was
to the principal amount of all Notes and other Obligations outstanding
prior to such exercise of banker's lien, setoff or counterclaim; provided,
however, that if any such purchase or purchases or adjustments shall be
made pursuant to this Section 28 and the payment giving rise thereto shall
thereafter be recovered, such purchase or purchases or adjustments shall be
rescinded to the extent of such recovery and the purchase price or prices
or adjustments restored without interest. The Borrower expressly consents
to the foregoing arrangements and agrees that any Person holding such a
participation in the Notes and the Obligations deemed to have been so
purchased may exercise any and all rights of banker's lien, setoff or
counterclaim with respect to any and all moneys owing by the Borrower to
such Person as fully as if such Person had made a Loan directly to the
Borrower in the amount of such participation.

SECTION 29. FINAL AGREEMENT. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN
DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE
CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS, OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL
AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE
PARTIES.
