under the Notes held by the Swing Lenders, and shall be due as Base Rate Loans
under the respective Notes issued to the Banks (including the Swing Lenders) in

pay the amount of such Refunded Swing Loans to the extent amounts received from
the Banks are not sufficient to repay in full such Refunded Swing Loans.

receipt thereof the Swing Lenders shall deliver to such Bank a Swing Loan
participation certificate dated the date of the Swing Lenders' receipt of such

Refund Amount pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(iv), the Swing Lenders receive any
payment on account of the Swing Loans in which the Banks have purchased
participations pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(iv), the Swing Lenders will promptly
distribute to each such Bank its ratable share (determined on the basis of the
Swing Loan Refund Amounts of all of the Banks) of such payment (appropriately
adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during
which such Bank's participating interest was outstanding and funded); provided,
--------
however, that in the event that such payment received by the Swing Lenders is
- -------
required to be returned, such Bank will return to the Swing Lenders any portion
thereof previously distributed to it by the Swing Lenders.
(vi) Obligations to Refund or Purchase Participations in Swing

Loans Absolute. Each Bank's obligation to transfer the amount of a Loan to the
- --------------
Swing Lenders as provided in Section 2.1(a)(iii) or to purchase a participating
interest pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(iv) shall be absolute and unconditional and
shall not be affected by any circumstance, including, without limitation, (i)
any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Bank,

continuance of a Default or an Event of Default or the termination or reduction

elsewhere in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event that the Swing Lenders
fund a Swing Loan hereunder when they have actual knowledge that a monetary
Default, or material Event of Default (which, for the avoidance of doubt shall
include any violation of any provision of Section 5.8) has occurred and is
continuing, the Banks shall have the option but not the obligation to make Base
Rate Loans to fund their ratable shares of such
37

Swing Loan as contemplated in preceding subparagraph (a)(iii) or to purchase
participations as contemplated in subparagraph (a) (iv).

of Letters of Credit to be issued, (iv) the date of such issuance (which shall
be a Domestic Business Day), (v) the name and address of the beneficiary, (vi)
the expiration date of the Letter of Credit (which in no event shall be later
than ten (10) Domestic Business Days prior to the Maturity Date), (vii) the
purpose and circumstances for which such Letter of Credit is being issued, and
(viii) the terms upon which each such Letters of Credit may be drawn down (which
terms shall not leave any discretion to Fronting Bank). Each such notice may be
revoked telephonically by Borrower to each of the applicable Fronting Bank and
the Lead Agent any time prior to the date of issuance of the Letter of Credit by
the applicable Fronting Bank, provided such revocation is confirmed in writing
by Borrower to Fronting Bank and the Lead Agent within one (1) Domestic Business
Day by facsimile. No later than 10:00 A.M. New York City time on the date that
is three (3) Domestic Business Days prior to the date of issuance, Borrower
shall specify a precise description of the documents and the verbatim text of
any certificate to be presented by the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit,
which if presented by such beneficiary prior to the expiration date of the
Letter of Credit would require Fronting Bank to make a payment under the Letter
of Credit; provided that Fronting Bank may, in its reasonable judgment, require
changes in any such documents and certificates only in conformity with changes
in customary and commercially reasonable practice or law and provided further,
that no Letter of Credit shall require payment against a conforming draft to be
made thereunder on the following Domestic Business Day that such draft is
presented if such presentation is made later than 10:00 A.M. New York City time
(except that if the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit requests at the time of
the issuance of its Letter of Credit that payment be made on the same Domestic
Business Day against a conforming draft, such beneficiary shall be entitled to
such a same day draw, provided such draft is presented to the applicable
Fronting Bank no later than 10:00 A.M. New York City time and provided further
that, prior to the issuance of such Letter of Credit, Borrower shall have
requested to Fronting Bank and the Lead Agent
39
<PAGE>
that such beneficiary shall be entitled to a same day draw). In determining
whether to pay on such Letter of Credit, Fronting Bank shall be responsible only
to determine that the documents and certificates required to be delivered under
the Letter of Credit have been delivered and that they comply on their face with
the requirements of that Letter of Credit.
SECTION 2.3. Money Market Borrowings.
-----------------------
(a) The Money Market Option. In addition to Committed Borrowings
-----------------------
pursuant to Section 2.1, the Borrower may, as set forth in this Section, request
the Banks during the Term to make offers to make Money Market Loans to the
Borrower, not to exceed, at such time, the lesser of (i) the Total Available
Commitments and (ii) $225,000,000 (which amount shall be increased by an amount
equal to 64% of the amount by which the Commitments are increased pursuant to

and the Borrower may, but shall have no obligation to, accept any such offers in
the manner set forth in this Section.
(b) Money Market Quote Request. When the Borrower wishes to request
--------------------------
offers to make Money Market Loans under this Section, it shall transmit to the
Lead Agent by telex or facsimile transmission a Money Market Quote Request
substantially in the form of Exhibit D hereto so as to be received not later
---------

prior to the date of Borrowing proposed therein, in the case of a LIBOR Auction
or (y) the Domestic Business Day next preceding the date of Borrowing proposed
therein, in the case of an Absolute Rate Auction (or, in either case, such other
time or date as the Borrower and the Lead Agent shall have mutually agreed and
shall have notified to the Banks not later than the date of the Money Market
Quote Request for the first LIBOR Auction or Absolute Rate Auction for which
such change is to be effective) specifying:
(i) the proposed date of Borrowing, which shall be a Euro-Dollar
Business Day in the case of a LIBOR Auction or a Domestic Business Day in
the case of an Absolute Rate Auction,
40
<PAGE>
(ii) the aggregate amount of such Borrowing, which shall be
$10,000,000 or a larger multiple of $500,000,

The Borrower may request offers to make Money Market Loans for more than one
Interest Period in a single Money Market Quote Request. No Money Market Quote
Request shall be given within five Euro-Dollar Business Days (or such other
number of days as the Borrower and the Lead Agent may agree) of any other Money
Market Quote Request.
(c) Invitation for Money Market Quotes. Promptly upon receipt of a
----------------------------------
Money Market Quote Request, the Lead Agent shall send to the Banks by telex or
facsimile transmission an Invitation for Money Market Quotes substantially in
the form of Exhibit E hereto, which shall constitute an invitation by the
---------
Borrower to each Bank to submit Money Market Quotes offering to make the Money
Market Loans to which such Money Market Quote Request relates in accordance with
this Section.
(d) Submission and Contents of Money Market Quotes. (i) Each Bank
----------------------------------------------

City time) on the third Euro-Dollar Business Day prior to the proposed date of
Borrowing, in the case of a LIBOR Auction or (y) 10:00 A.M. (New York City time)
on the proposed date of Borrowing, in the case of an Absolute Rate Auction (or,
in either case, such other time or date as the Borrower and the Lead Agent shall
have mutually agreed and
41
<PAGE>
shall have notified to the Banks not later than the date of the Money Market
Quote Request for the first LIBOR Auction or Absolute Rate Auction for which
such change is to be effective); provided that Money Market Quotes submitted by
--------
the Lead Agent (or any affiliate of the Lead Agent) in the capacity of a Bank
may be submitted, and may only be submitted, if the Lead Agent or such affiliate
notifies the Borrower of the terms of the offer or offers contained therein not
later than thirty (30) minutes prior to the applicable deadline for the other
Banks. Subject to Articles III and VI, any Money Market Quote so made shall be
irrevocable except with the written consent of the Lead Agent given on the
instructions of the Borrower. If, and only if, the Borrower elected in the
applicable Money Market Quote Request to permit the Banks to designate
Designated Lenders to fund such Money Market Loans, such Money Market Loans may
be funded by such Bank's Designated Lender (if any) as provided in Section
9.6(d), however such Bank shall not be required to specify in its Money Market
Quote whether such Money Market Loans will be funded by such Designated Lender.
(ii) Each Money Market Quote shall be in substantially the form of
Exhibit F hereto and shall in any case specify:
- ---------
(1) the proposed date of Borrowing,
(2) the principal amount of the Money Market Loan for which each
such offer is being made, which principal amount (w) may be greater than or
less than the Commitment of the quoting Bank, (x) must be $5,000,000 or a
larger multiple of $500,000, (y) may not exceed the principal amount of
Money Market Loans for which offers were requested and (z) may be subject
to an aggregate limitation as to the principal amount of Money Market Loans
for which offers being made by such quoting Bank may be accepted,
(3) in the case of a LIBOR Auction, the margin above or below the
applicable London Interbank Offered Rate (the "Money Market Margin")
offered for each such Money Market Loan, expressed as a percentage
(specified to the nearest 1/10,000th of 1%) to be added to or subtracted
from such base rate,
(4) in the case of an Absolute Rate Auction, the rate of interest
per annum (specified to the nearest
42
<PAGE>
1/10,000th of 1%) (the "Money Market Absolute Rate") offered for each such
Money Market Loan, and
(5) the identity of the quoting Bank.
A Money Market Quote may set forth up to five separate offers by the quoting
Bank with respect to each Interest Period specified in the related Invitation
for Money Market Quotes.
(iii) Any Money Market Quote shall be disregarded if it:
(1) is not substantially in conformity with Exhibit F hereto or does
---------
not specify all of the information required by subsection (d)(ii) above;
(2) contains qualifying, conditional or similar language (other than
aggregate limits as set forth in Section 2.3(b)(ii));
(3) proposes terms other than or in addition to those set forth in
the applicable Invitation for Money Market Quotes; or
(4) arrives after the time set forth in subsection (d)(i).
(e) Notice to Borrower. The Lead Agent shall promptly notify the
------------------
Borrower (x) with respect to each Money Market Quote submitted in accordance
with subsection (d), of the terms of such Money Market Quote and the identity of
the Bank submitting such Money Market Quote and (y) of any Money Market Quote
that amends, modifies or is otherwise inconsistent with a previous Money Market
Quote submitted by such Bank with respect to the same Money Market Quote
Request. Any such subsequent Money Market Quote shall be disregarded by the
Lead Agent unless such subsequent Money Market Quote is submitted solely to
correct a manifest error in such former Money Market Quote. The Lead Agent's
notice to the Borrower shall specify (A) the aggregate principal amount of Money
Market Loans for which offers have been received for each Interest Period
specified in the related Money Market Quote Request, (B) the respective
principal amounts and Money Market Margins or Money Market Absolute Rates, as
the case may be, so offered and (C) if applicable, limitations on the aggregate
principal amount of
43
<PAGE>
Money Market Loans for which offers in any single Money Market Quote may be
accepted.
(f) Acceptance and Notice by Borrower. Not later than 12:00 noon
---------------------------------
(New York City time) on (x) the third Euro-Dollar Business Day prior to the
proposed date of Borrowing, in the case of a LIBOR Auction or (y) the proposed
date of Borrowing, in the case of an Absolute Rate Auction (or, in either case,
such other time or date as the Borrower and the Lead Agent shall have mutually
agreed and shall have notified to the Banks not later than the date of the Money
Market Quote Request for the first LIBOR Auction or Absolute Rate Auction for
which such change is to be effective), the Borrower shall notify the Lead Agent
of its acceptance or non-acceptance of the offers so notified to it pursuant to
subsection (e). In the case of acceptance, such notice (a "Notice of Money
Market Borrowing") shall specify the aggregate principal amount of offers for
each Interest Period that are accepted. The Borrower may accept any Money
Market Quote in whole or in part; provided that:
--------
(i) the aggregate principal amount of each Money Market
Borrowing may not exceed the applicable amount set forth in the
related Money Market Quote Request;
(ii) the principal amount of each Money Market Borrowing
must be $10,000,000 or a larger multiple of $500,000;
(iii) acceptance of offers may only be made on the basis of
ascending Money Market Margins or Money Market Absolute Rates, as the
case may be; and
(iv) the Borrower may not accept any offer that is described
in subsection (d)(iii) or that otherwise fails to comply with the
requirements of this Agreement.
(g) Allocation by Lead Agent. If offers are made by two or more
------------------------
Banks with the same Money Market Margins or Money Market Absolute Rates, as the
case may be, for a greater aggregate principal amount than the amount in respect
of which such offers are accepted for the related Interest Period, the principal
amount of Money Market Loans in respect of which such offers are accepted shall
be allo-
44
<PAGE>
cated by the Lead Agent among such Banks as nearly as possible (in multiples of
$500,000, as the Lead Agent may deem appropriate) in proportion to the aggregate
principal amounts of such offers. Determinations by the Lead Agent of the
amounts of Money Market Loans shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest
error.
(h) Notification by Lead Agent. Upon receipt of the Borrower's Notice
--------------------------
of Money Market Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.3(f) hereof, the Lead
Agent promptly shall, on the date such Notice of Money Market Borrowing is
received by the Lead Agent, notify each Bank of the principal amount of the
Money Market Borrowing accepted by the Borrower and of such Bank's share (if
any) of such Money Market Borrowing and such Notice of Money Market Borrowing
shall not thereafter be revocable by the Borrower. Provided that the Borrower
elected in the applicable Money Market Quote Request to permit the Banks to
designate Designated Lenders to fund such Money Market Loans, a Bank who is
notified that it has been selected to make a Money Market Loan may designate its
Designated Lender (if any) to fund such Money Market Loan on its behalf, as
described in Section 9.6(d). Any Designated Lender which funds a Money Market
Loan shall on and after the time of such funding become the obligee under such
Money Market Loan and be entitled to receive payment thereof when due. No Bank
shall be relieved of its obligation to fund a Money Market Loan, and no
Designated Lender shall assume such obligation, prior to the time the applicable
Money Market Loan is funded.
SECTION 2.4. Notice to Banks; Funding of Loans.
---------------------------------
(a) Upon receipt of a notice from Borrower in accordance with Section
2.2 hereof (each such notice being a "Notice of Committed Borrowing"), the Lead
-----------------------------
Agent shall, on the date such Notice of Committed Borrowing is received by the
Lead Agent, notify each Bank of the contents thereof and of such Bank's share of
such Borrowing, of the interest rate determined pursuant thereto and the
Interest Period(s) (if different from those requested by the Borrower) and
(unless such Notice of Committed Borrowing is for the issuance of a Letter of
Credit) such Notice of Committed Borrowing shall not thereafter be revocable by
the Borrower.
(b) Not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date of each
Borrowing (including, without limitation, each Swing Borrowing) as indicated in
the Notice
45
<PAGE>
of Committed Borrowing, each Bank (or, in the case of a Swing Loan, the Swing
Lenders) shall (except (x) with respect to Notices of Committed Borrowing for
issuances of Letters of Credit, and (y) as provided in subsection (c) of this
Section) make available its share of such Borrowing in Federal funds immediately
available in New York City, to the Lead Agent at its address referred to in
Section 9.1. If Borrower has requested the issuance of a Letter of Credit, no
later than 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the date of such issuance as
indicated in the Notice of Committed Borrowing, Fronting Bank shall issue such
Letter of Credit in the amount so requested and deliver the same to Borrower,
with a copy thereof to the Lead Agent. Immediately upon the issuance of each
Letter of Credit by Fronting Bank, such Fronting Bank shall be deemed to have
sold and transferred to each other Bank, and each such other Bank shall be
deemed to, and hereby agrees to, have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased
and received from Fronting Bank, without recourse or warranty, an undivided
interest and a participation in such Letter of Credit, any drawing thereunder,
and the obligations of Borrower hereunder with respect thereto, and any security
therefor or guaranty pertaining thereto, in an amount equal to such Bank's
ratable share thereof (based upon the ratio its Commitment bears the aggregate
of all Commitments). Upon any change in any of the Commitments in accordance
herewith, there shall be an automatic adjustment to such participations to
reflect such changed shares. The applicable Fronting Bank shall have the primary
obligation to fund any and all draws made with respect to such Letter of Credit
notwithstanding any failure of a participating Bank to fund its ratable share of
any such draw. Unless the Lead Agent determines that any applicable condition
specified in Article III has not been satisfied, the Lead Agent will instruct
the applicable Fronting Bank to make such Letter of Credit available to the
Borrower and such Fronting Bank shall make such Letter of Credit available to
the Borrower at the Borrower's aforesaid address on the date of the issuance of
such Letter of Credit. Without in any way implying a right of Fronting Bank not
to issue a Letter of Credit as provided for herein, if a Fronting Bank shall
fail to issue a Letter of Credit (notwithstanding that the applicable conditions
specified in Article III have been satisfied), the Borrower may designate a
substitute Fronting Bank, provided that the notice periods set forth in Section
2.2(b) above shall begin anew.
46
<PAGE>
(c) Unless the Lead Agent shall have received notice from a Bank
prior to the date of any Borrowing that such Bank will not make available to the
Lead Agent such Bank's share of such Borrowing, the Lead Agent may assume that
such Bank has made such share available to the Lead Agent on the date of such
Borrowing in accordance with subsection (b) of this Section 2.4 and the Lead
Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, but shall not be obligated to, make
available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount on behalf of such
Bank. If and to the extent that such Bank shall not have so made such share
available to the Lead Agent, such Bank and the Borrower severally agree to repay
to the Lead Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with
interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to
the Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Lead Agent, at (i) in
the case of the Borrower, a rate per annum equal to the higher of the Federal
Funds Rate and the interest rate applicable thereto pursuant to Section 2.7 and
(ii) in the case of such Bank, the Federal Funds Rate. If such Bank shall repay
to the Lead Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so repaid shall
constitute such Bank's Loan included in such Borrowing for purposes of this
Agreement.
SECTION 2.5. Notes.
-----
(a) The Loans of each Bank shall be evidenced by a single Note
payable to the order of such Bank for the account of its Applicable Lending
Office.
(b) Each Bank may, by notice to the Borrower, the Lead Agent, request
that its Loans of a particular type, including Swing Loans, be evidenced by a
separate Note in an amount equal to the aggregate unpaid principal amount of
such Loans. Any additional costs incurred by the Lead Agent, the Borrower or the
Banks in connection with preparing such a Note shall be at the sole cost and
expense of the Bank requesting such Note. In the event any Loans evidenced by
such a Note are paid in full prior to the Maturity Date, any such Bank shall
return such Note to Borrower. Each such Note shall be in substantially the form
of Exhibit A-1 hereto with appropriate modifications to reflect the fact that it
-----------
evidences solely Loans of the relevant type, or Exhibit A-3 with respect to the
-----------
Swing Lenders. Each reference in this Agreement to the "Note" of such Bank
----
shall
47
<PAGE>
be deemed to refer to and include any or all of such Notes, as the context may
require.
(c) Upon receipt of each Bank's Note pursuant to Section 3.1(a), the
Lead Agent shall forward such Note to such Bank. Each Bank shall record in its
records the date, amount, type and maturity of each Loan made by it and the date
and amount of each payment of principal made by the Borrower with respect
thereto, and may, if such Bank so elects in connection with any transfer or
enforcement of its Note, endorse on the appropriate schedule appropriate
notations to evidence the foregoing information with respect to each such Loan
then outstanding; provided that the failure of any Bank to make any such
--------
recordation or endorsement shall not affect the obligations of the Borrower
hereunder or under the Notes. Each Bank is hereby irrevocably authorized by the
Borrower so to endorse its Note and to attach to and make a part of its Note a
continuation of any such schedule as and when required.
(d) The Loans shall mature, and the principal amount thereof shall be
due and payable, on the Maturity Date.
(e) There shall be no more than fifteen (15) Euro-Dollar Loans and CD
Loans outstanding at any one time.
SECTION 2.6 Letters of Credit. (a) Subject to the terms
-----------------
contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, upon the receipt of a
Notice of Committed Borrowing requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit,
Fronting Bank shall issue a Letter of Credit or Letters of Credit in such form
as is reasonably acceptable to Borrower, in an aggregate amount equal to the
amount requested, provided that after the issuance of such Letters of Credit,
(i) the aggregate amount of issued and outstanding Letters of Credit shall not
exceed Thirty Million Dollars ($30,000,000), and (ii) the Letter of Credit
Usage, when added to the aggregate principal amount of the Loans outstanding,
shall not exceed the lesser of (y) Three Hundred Fifty Million Dollars
($350,000,000) (which amount shall be increased dollar for dollar to the extent
of any increase in the Commitments pursuant to Section 9.16) or (z) the Total
Available Commitments (subject, however, to the right to cure as set forth in
Section 2.11(a)), provided the LTV Ratio does not exceed 60%, as set forth
therein, or Section 2.11(c), and provided further that during such cure period,
48
<PAGE>
the Borrower may only borrow in order to acquire a New Acquisition that will
cure any Default under Section 2.11(a). Fronting Bank shall notify Agent and
each Bank of the issuance of any such Letter of Credit, together with the amount
thereof, simultaneously therewith.
(b) Each Letter of Credit shall be issued in the minimum aggregate
amount of Three Hundred Thousand Dollars ($300,000) or any amount in excess
thereof.
(c) In the event of any request for a drawing under any Letter of
Credit by the beneficiary thereunder, Fronting Bank shall notify Borrower and
the Lead Agent (and the Lead Agent shall promptly notify each Bank thereof) on
or before the date on which Fronting Bank intends to honor such drawing, and,
except as provided in this subsection (c), Borrower shall reimburse Fronting
Bank, in immediately available funds, on the same day on which such drawing is
honored in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing. Notwithstanding
anything contained herein to the contrary, however, unless Borrower shall have
notified the Lead Agent and Fronting Bank prior to 10:00 a.m. (New York time) on
the date of such drawing (provided that the same shall be a Domestic Business
Day) that Borrower intends to reimburse Fronting Bank for the amount of such
drawing with funds other than the proceeds of the Loans, Borrower shall be
deemed to have timely given a Notice of Committed Borrowing pursuant to Section
2.2 to the Lead Agent, requesting a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans on the date on
which such drawing is honored and in an amount equal to the amount of such
drawing. Each Bank shall, in accordance with Section 2.4(b), make available its
share of such Borrowing to the Lead Agent, the proceeds of which shall be
applied directly by the Lead Agent to reimburse Fronting Bank for the amount of
such draw. In the event that any Bank fails to make available to Fronting Bank
the amount of such Bank's participation on the date of a drawing, Fronting Bank
shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Bank together with
interest at the Federal Funds Rate commencing on the date of drawing.
(d) If, after the date hereof, any change in any law or regulation or
in the interpretation thereof by any court or administrative or governmental
authority charged with the administration thereof shall either (a) impose,
modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement
against letters of credit
49
<PAGE>
issued by, or assets held by, or deposits in or for the account of, or
participations in any letter of credit, upon any Bank (including Fronting Bank)
or (b) impose on any Bank any other condition regarding this Agreement or such
Bank (including Fronting Bank) as it pertains to the Letters of Credit or any
participation therein and the result of any event referred to in the preceding
clause (a) or(b) shall be to increase the cost to the Fronting Bank or any Bank
of issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or participating therein then the
Borrower shall pay to the Fronting Bank or such Bank, upon written demand
therefor to the Borrower from the Lead Agent, such additional amounts as shall
be required to compensate the Fronting Bank or such Bank for such increased
costs or reduction in amounts received or receivable hereunder together with
interest thereon at the Federal Funds Rate plus the Applicable Margin on Base
Rate Loans at such time. The amount specified in the written demand shall be
conclusive in the absence of demonstrable error.
(e) Borrower hereby agrees to protect, indemnify, pay and save
Fronting Bank harmless from and against any and all claims, demands,
liabilities, damages, losses, costs, charges and expenses (including reasonable
attorneys' fees and disbursements) which Fronting Bank may incur or be subject
to as a result of (i) the issuance of the Letters of Credit, other than as a
result of the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of Fronting Bank or (ii) the
failure of Fronting Bank to honor a drawing under any Letter of Credit as a
result of any act or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or
future de jure or de facto government or governmental authority (collectively,
"Governmental Acts"). As between Borrower or any Fronting Bank, Borrower
-----------------
assumes all risks of the acts and omission of, or misuses of the Letters of
Credit issued by Fronting Bank by the beneficiaries of such Letters of Credit.
In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, Fronting Bank shall not
be responsible (i) for the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or
legal effect of any document submitted by any party in connection with the
application for and issuance of such Letters of Credit, even if it should in
fact prove to be in any and all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate,
fraudulent or forged; (ii) for the validity or insufficiency of any instrument
transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any such Letter of
Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in
part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii)
50
<PAGE>
for failure of the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit to comply fully with
conditions required in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit unless the
Fronting Bank's acquiescence to such noncompliance constitutes gross negligence
or willful misconduct; (iv) for errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in
transmission or delivery of any message, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex,
facsimile transmission, or otherwise; (v) for errors in interpretation of any
technical terms; (vi) for any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of
any documents required in order to make a drawing under any such Letter of
Credit or of the proceeds thereof; (vii) for the misapplication by the
beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit of the proceeds of such Letter of
Credit; and (viii) for any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of
Fronting Bank including any Government Acts. None of the above shall affect,
impair or prevent the vesting of Fronting Bank's rights and powers hereunder. In
furtherance and extension and not in limitation of the specific provisions
hereinabove set forth, any action taken or omitted by Fronting Bank under or in
connection with the Letters of Credit issued by it or the related certificates,
if taken or omitted in good faith, shall not put Fronting Bank under any
resulting liability to Borrower.
(f) If Fronting Bank or the Lead Agent is required at any time,
pursuant to any bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation or reorganization law or
otherwise, to return to Borrower any reimbursement by Borrower of any drawing
under any Letter of Credit, each Bank shall pay to Fronting Bank or the Lead
Agent, as the case may be, its share of such payment, but without interest
thereon unless Fronting Bank or the Lead Agent is required to pay interest on
such amounts to the person recovering such payment, in which case with interest
thereon, computed at the same rate, and on the same basis, as the interest that
Fronting Bank or the Lead Agent is required to pay.
SECTION 2.7. Method of Electing Interest Rates. (a) The Loans
---------------------------------
included in each Borrowing shall bear interest initially at the type of rate
specified by the Borrower in the applicable Notice of Committed Borrowing.
Thereafter, the Borrower may from time to time elect to change or continue the
type of interest rate borne by each Group of Loans (subject in each case to the
provisions of Article VIII and except for any Swing Loans), as follows:
51
<PAGE>
(i) if such Loans are Base Rate Loans, the Borrower may elect to
convert such Loans to Euro-Dollar Loans or CD Loans as of any Euro-Dollar
Business Day;
(ii) if such Loans are Euro-Dollar Loans, the Borrower may elect to
convert such Loans to Base Rate Loans or CD Loans or elect to continue such
Loans as Euro-Dollar Loans for an additional Interest Period, in each case
effective on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to such
Loans, or on such other date designated by Borrower in the Notice of Interest
Rate Election, provided Borrower shall pay any losses pursuant to Section 2.14;
(iii) if such Loans are CD Loans, the Borrower may elect to convert
such Loans to Base Rate Loans or Euro-Dollar Loans or elect to continue such
Loans as CD Loans for an additional Interest Period, in each case effective on
the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to such Loans or on
such other date designated by Borrower in the Notice of Interest Rate Election,
provided Borrower shall pay any losses pursuant to Section 2.14.
Each such election shall be made by delivering a notice (a "Notice of Interest
------------------
Rate Election") to the Lead Agent at least three (3) Euro-Dollar Business Days
- -------------
before the conversion or continuation selected in such notice is to be
effective. A Notice of Interest Rate Election may, if it so specifies, apply to
only a portion of the aggregate principal amount of the relevant Group of Loans;
provided that (i) such portion is allocated ratably among the Loans comprising
- --------
such Group, (ii) the portion to which such Notice applies, and the remaining
portion to which it does not apply, are each $500,000 or any larger multiple of
$100,000, (iii) there shall be no more than fifteen (15) Euro-Dollar Loans and
CD Loans outstanding at any time, (iv) no Loan may be continued as, or converted
into, a Euro-Dollar Loan or CD Loan when any Event of Default has occurred and
is continuing, and (v) no Interest Period shall extend beyond the Maturity Date.
(b) Each Notice of Interest Rate Election shall specify:
(i) the Group of Loans (or portion thereof) to which such notice
applies;
52
<PAGE>
(ii) the date on which the conversion or continuation selected in
such notice is to be effective, which shall comply with the applicable clause of
subsection (a) above;
(iii) if the Loans comprising such Group are to be converted, the new
type of Loans and, if such new Loans are Euro-Dollar Loans or CD Loans, the
duration of the initial Interest Period applicable thereto; and
(iv) if such Loans are to be continued as Euro-Dollar Loans or CD
Loans for an additional Interest Period, the duration of such additional
Interest Period.
Each Interest Period specified in a Notice of Interest Rate Election shall
comply with the provisions of the definition of Interest Period.

that they accept such request, the Maturity Date shall be extended for one year.
If any Bank shall not have notified the Agent on or prior to the date which is

--------------------
(a) If as of the last day of any calendar quarter the LTV Ratio

accordance with the provisions of Section 3.3, or (ii) pay to the Lead Agent,
for the account of the Banks, or pay to the holder(s) of any outstanding
Unsecured Debt, within 90 days of the date the LTV Ratio exceeded the Permitted
LTV Ratio, in each case in an amount such that the LTV Ratio subsequent to such
payment is in compliance with the Permitted LTV Ratio. In the event that the
LTV Ratio exceeds 60%, then Borrower shall, within five (5) Domestic Business
Days from the date the Permitted LTV Ratio is exceeded, pay to the Lead Agent,

Coverage is not maintained as of the last day of a calendar quarter, the
Borrower will either (i) add a New Acquisition or a Real Property Asset to the
Unleveraged Assets in accordance with Section 3.3 which, on a pro forma basis
---------
(i.e. the Unleveraged Assets Minimum Debt Service Coverage shall be recalculated
- -----
to include such New Acquisition or Real Property Asset as though the same had
been a Unleveraged Asset for the entire applicable period) would result in
compliance with the Unleveraged Assets Minimum Debt Service Coverage, or (ii)
prepay the Loans in an amount necessary to cause the Unleveraged Assets Minimum
Debt Service Coverage to be in compliance. Failure by the Borrower to comply
with the Unleveraged Assets Minimum Debt Service Coverage within 90 days of the
date of such non-compliance shall be an Event of Default.

be permitted to cancel Commitments for which a Letter of Credit has been issued
and is outstanding unless Borrower returns such Letter of Credit to the
applicable Fronting Bank.
(e) The Borrower may at any time return any undrawn Letters of Credit
to the Fronting Bank in whole, but not in part, and the Fronting Bank shall
promptly cancel such returned Letters of Credit and give the Borrower, the Lead

promptly (and in any event on the same Domestic Business day if such payment is
received on or before 12:00 Noon (New York City time) and within one (1)
Domestic Business Day after receipt thereof if received after 12:00 Noon (New

payment thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Euro-Dollar Business

which case the date for payment thereof shall be the next preceding Euro-Dollar
Business Day. If the date for any payment of principal is extended by operation
of law or otherwise, interest thereon shall be payable for such extended time.
(b) Unless the Lead Agent shall have received notice from the
Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Banks hereunder

and the Lead Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be
distributed to each Bank on
63
<PAGE>
such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Bank. If and to the
extent that the Borrower shall not have so made such payment, each Bank shall
repay to the Lead Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Bank
together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is
distributed to such Bank until the date such Bank repays such amount to the Lead
Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate.

--------------
principal with respect to any Euro-Dollar Loan or CD Loan (pursuant to Article
II, VI or VIII or otherwise) on any day other than the last day of the Interest
Period applicable thereto, or if the Borrower fails to borrow any Euro-Dollar
Loans or CD Loan after notice has been given to any Bank in accordance with
Section 2.4(a), or if Borrower shall deliver a Notice of Interest Rate Election

(or by an existing or prospective Participant in the related Loan), including
(without limitation) any loss incurred in obtaining, liquidating or employing
deposits from third parties, but excluding loss of margin for the period after
any such payment or failure to borrow, provided that such Bank shall have

65
<PAGE>
(e) any draft or any other document presented under or in connection

certificate that does not comply with the terms of the Letter of Credit;
provided that such payment shall not have constituted gross negligence or wilful

ARTICLE IV
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
In order to induce the Lead Agent and each of the other Banks which is
or may become a party to this Agreement to make the Loans, the Borrower makes
the following representations and warranties as of the Closing Date. Such
representations and warranties shall survive the effectiveness of this
Agreement, the execution and delivery of the other Loan Documents and the making
of the Loans.
SECTION 4.1. Existence and Power. The Borrower is a corporation,
-------------------
duly formed, validly existing and in good standing as a corporation under the
laws of Maryland and has all powers and all material governmental licenses,
authorizations, consents and approvals required to own its property and assets
and carry on its business as now conducted or as it presently proposes to
conduct and has been duly qualified and is in good standing in every
jurisdiction in which the failure to be so qualified and/or in good standing is
likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.
70
<PAGE>
SECTION 4.2. Power and Authority. The Borrower has the corporate
-------------------
power and authority to execute, deliver and carry out the terms and provisions
of each of the Loan Documents to which it is a party and has taken all necessary
corporate action to authorize the execution and delivery on behalf of the
Borrower and the performance by the Borrower of such Loan Documents. The
Borrower has duly executed and delivered each Loan Document to which it is a
party in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and each such Loan
Document constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower,
enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be
limited by applicable insolvency, bankruptcy or other laws affecting creditors
rights generally, or general principles of equity, whether such enforceability
is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.
SECTION 4.3. No Violation. Neither the execution, delivery or
------------
performance by or on behalf of the Borrower of the Loan Documents to which it is
a party, nor compliance by the Borrower with the terms and provisions thereof
nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents, (i)
will materially contravene any applicable provision of any law, statute, rule,
regulation, order, writ, injunction or decree of any court or governmental
instrumentality or (ii) will materially conflict with or result in any breach
of, any of the terms, covenants, conditions or provisions of, or constitute a
default under, or result in the creation or imposition of (or the obligation to
create or impose) any Lien upon any of the property or assets of the Borrower or
any of its Consolidated Subsidiaries pursuant to the terms of any indenture,
mortgage, deed of trust, or other agreement or other instrument to which the
Borrower (or of any partnership of which the Borrower is a partner) or any of
its Consolidated Subsidiaries is a party or by which it or any of its property
or assets is bound or to which it is subject, or (iii) will cause a material
default by the Borrower under any organizational document of any Person in which
the Borrower has an interest, or cause a material default under the Borrower's
articles of incorporation or by laws.
SECTION 4.4. Financial Information.
---------------------
(a) The consolidated balance sheet of the Borrower and its
Consolidated Subsidiaries dated as of December 31, 1997 and the related
consolidated statements of
71
<PAGE>
Borrower's financial position for the fiscal year then ended, reported on by
Coopers & Lybrand LLP and set forth in the Borrower's 1997 Form 10-K, a copy of
which has been delivered to each of the Banks, fairly present, in conformity
with GAAP, the consolidated financial position of the Borrower and its
Consolidated Subsidiaries as of such date and their consolidated results of
operations and cash flows for such fiscal year.
(b) Since December 31, 1997, (i) except as may have been disclosed in
writing to the Banks, nothing has occurred having a Material Adverse Effect, and
(ii) except as previously disclosed to the Banks, the Borrower has not incurred
any material indebtedness or guaranty.
SECTION 4.5. Litigation. Except as previously disclosed by the
----------
Borrower in writing to the Banks, there is no action, suit or proceeding pending
against, or to the knowledge of the Borrower threatened against or affecting,
(i) the Borrower or any of its Consolidated Subsidiaries, (ii) the Loan
Documents or any of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents or (iii)
any of its assets, before any court or arbitrator or any governmental body,
agency or official in which there is a reasonable possibility of an adverse
decision which could, individually, or in the aggregate have a Material Adverse
Effect or which in any manner draws into question the validity of this Agreement
or the other Loan Documents.
SECTION 4.6. Compliance with ERISA. (a) Each member of the ERISA
---------------------
Group has fulfilled its obligations under the minimum funding standards of ERISA
and the Code with respect to each Plan and is in compliance in all material
respects with the presently applicable provisions of ERISA and the Code with
respect to each Plan. No member of the ERISA Group has (i) sought a waiver of
the minimum funding standard under Section 412 of the Code in respect of any
Plan, (ii) failed to make any contribution or payment to any Plan or
Multiemployer Plan or in respect of any Benefit Arrangement, or made any
amendment to any Plan or Benefit Arrangement, which has resulted or could result
in the imposition of a Lien or the posting of a bond or other security under
ERISA or the Code or (iii) incurred any liability under Title IV of ERISA other
than a liability to the PBGC for premiums under Section 4007 of ERISA.
72
<PAGE>
(b) The transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents will not
constitute a nonexempt prohibited transaction (as such term is defined in
Section 4975 of the Code or Section 406 of ERISA) that could subject the Lead
Agent or the Banks to any tax or penalty or prohibited transactions imposed
under Section 4975 of the Code or Section 502(i) of ERISA.
SECTION 4.7. Environmental Matters. In the ordinary course of its
---------------------
business, the Borrower conducts periodic reviews of the effect of Environmental
Laws on the business, operations and properties of the Borrower and its
Consolidated Subsidiaries, including without limitation the Real Property
Assets, in the course of which it identifies and evaluates associated
liabilities and costs (including, without limitation, any capital or operating
expenditures required for clean-up or closure of properties presently owned, any
capital or operating expenditures required to achieve or maintain compliance
with environmental protection standards imposed by law or as a condition of any
license, permit or contract, any related constraints on operating activities,
and any actual or potential liabilities to third parties, including employees,
and any related costs and expenses). On the basis of this review, the Borrower
has reasonably concluded that such associated liabilities and costs, including
the costs of compliance with Environmental Laws, are unlikely to have a Material
Adverse Effect on the Borrower and its Consolidated Subsidiaries.
SECTION 4.8. Taxes. United States Federal income tax returns of the
-----
Borrower and its Consolidated Subsidiaries have been prepared and filed through
the fiscal year ended December 31, 1996. The Borrower and its Consolidated
Subsidiaries have filed all United States Federal income tax returns and all
other material tax returns which are required to be filed by them and have paid
all taxes due pursuant to such returns or pursuant to any assessment received by
the Borrower or any Consolidated Subsidiary. The charges, accruals and reserves
on the books of the Borrower and its Consolidated Subsidiaries in respect of
taxes or other governmental charges are, in the opinion of the Borrower,
adequate.
SECTION 4.9. Full Disclosure. All information heretofore furnished
---------------
by the Borrower to the Lead Agent or any Bank for purposes of or in connection
with this Agreement or the Original Credit Agreement or any transaction
73
<PAGE>
contemplated hereby or thereby is true and accurate in all material respects on
the date as of which such information is stated or certified. The Borrower has
disclosed to the Lead Agent and the Banks in writing any and all facts which
have or may have (to the extent the Borrower can now reasonably foresee) a
Material Adverse Effect.
SECTION 4.10. Solvency. On the Closing Date and after giving effect
--------
to the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents occurring on the Closing
Date, the Borrower will be Solvent.
SECTION 4.11. Use of Proceeds; Margin Regulations. All proceeds of
-----------------------------------
the Loans will be used by the Borrower only in accordance with the provisions
hereof. No part of the proceeds of any Loan will be used by the Borrower to
purchase or carry any Margin Stock or to extend credit to others for the purpose
of purchasing or carrying any Margin Stock. Neither the making of any Loan nor
the use of the proceeds thereof will violate or be inconsistent with the
provisions of Regulations T, U or X of the Federal Reserve Board.
SECTION 4.12. Governmental Approvals. No order, consent, approval,
----------------------
license, authorization, or validation of, or filing, recording or registration
with, or exemption by, any governmental or public body or authority, or any
subdivision thereof, is required to authorize, or is required in connection with
the execution, delivery and performance of any Loan Document or the consummation
of any of the transactions contemplated thereby other than those that have
already been duly made or obtained and remain in full force and effect or those
which, if not made or obtained, would not have a Material Adverse Effect;
SECTION 4.13. Investment Company Act; Public Utility Holding Company
------------------------------------------------------
Act. Neither the Borrower nor any Consolidated Subsidiary is (x) an "investment
- --- ----------
company" or a company "controlled" by an "investment company", within the
- ------- ---------- ------------------
meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, (y) a "holding
-------
company" or a "subsidiary company" of a "holding company" or an "affiliate" of
- ------- ------------------ --------------- ---------
either a "holding company" or a "subsidiary company" within the meaning of the
--------------- ------------------
Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, as amended, or (z) subject to any
other federal or state law or regulation which purports to restrict or regulate
its ability to borrow money.
74
<PAGE>
SECTION 4.14. Principal Offices. As of the Closing Date, the
-----------------
principal office, chief executive office and principal place of business of the
Borrower is One Embarcadero Center, 33rd Floor, San Francisco, California 94111.

-----------
1997, the Borrower qualified and the Borrower intends to continue to qualify as
a real estate investment trust under the Code.

-------------------------
and holds in full force and effect all patents, trademarks, servicemarks, trade
names, copyrights and other such rights, free from burdensome restrictions,
which are necessary for the operation of its business as presently conducted,
the impairment of which is likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.
SECTION 4.17. Ownership of Property. Schedule 4.17 attached hereto
--------------------- -------------
and made a part hereof sets forth all the real property owned or leased by the
Borrower and Persons in which the Borrower, directly or indirectly, owns an
interest as of the Closing Date. As of the Closing Date, the Borrower and such
Persons have good and insurable fee simple title (or leasehold title if so
designated on Schedule 4.17) to all of such real property, subject to customary
-------------
encumbrances and liens as of the date of this Agreement. As of the date of
this Agreement, there are no mortgages, deeds of trust, indentures, debt
instruments or other agreements creating a Lien against any of the Real Property
Assets except as disclosed on Schedule 4.17.
-------------
SECTION 4.18. No Default. No Event of Default or, to the best of the
----------
Borrower's knowledge, Default exists under or with respect to any Loan Document
and the Borrower is not in default in any material respect beyond any applicable
grace period under or with respect to any other material agreement, instrument
or undertaking to which it is a party or by which it or any of its property is
bound in any respect, the existence of which default is likely to result in a
Material Adverse Effect.
SECTION 4.19. Licenses, etc. The Borrower has obtained and does hold
--------------
in full force and effect, all franchises, licenses, permits, certificates,
authorizations, qualifications, accreditation, easements, rights of way and
75
<PAGE>
other consents and approvals which are necessary for the operation of its
businesses as presently conducted, the absence of which is likely to have a
Material Adverse Effect.
SECTION 4.20. Compliance With Law. The Borrower and each of the Real
-------------------
Property Assets are in compliance with all laws, rules, regulations, orders,
judgments, writs and decrees, including, without limitation, all building and
zoning ordinances and codes, the failure to comply with which is likely to have
a Material Adverse Effect.
SECTION 4.21. No Burdensome Restrictions. Except as may have been
--------------------------
disclosed by the Borrower in writing to the Banks, Borrower is not a party to
any agreement or instrument or subject to any other obligation or any charter or
corporate or partnership restriction, as the case may be, which, individually or
in the aggregate, is likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.
SECTION 4.22. Brokers' Fees. The Borrower has not dealt with any
-------------
broker or finder with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement
or otherwise in connection with this Agreement, and the Borrower has not done
any act, had any negotiations or conversation, or made any agreements or
promises which will in any way create or give rise to any obligation or
liability for the payment by the Borrower of any brokerage fee, charge,
commission or other compensation to any party with respect to the transactions
contemplated by the Loan Documents, other than the fees payable to the Lead
Agent and the Banks, and certain other Persons as previously disclosed in
writing to the Lead Agent.
SECTION 4.23. Labor Matters. There are no collective bargaining
-------------
agreements or Multiemployer Plans covering the employees of the Borrower as of
the Closing Date and the Borrower has not suffered any strikes, walkouts, work
stoppages or other material labor difficulty within the last five years which,
individually or in the aggregate, are likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.
SECTION 4.24. Insurance. The Borrower currently maintains, or, if
---------
the Borrower does not maintain, then it will cause its tenants to maintain,
insurance at 100% replacement cost insurance coverage (subject to customary
deductibles) in respect of each of the Real
76
<PAGE>
Property Assets, as well as commercial general liability insurance (including
"builders' risk") against claims for personal, and bodily injury and/or death,
to one or more persons, or property damage, as well as workers' compensation
insurance, in each case with respect to liability and casualty insurance with
insurers having an A.M. Best policyholders' rating of not less than A-IX in
amounts that prudent owner of assets such as the Real Property Assets would
maintain.
SECTION 4.25. Organizational Documents. The documents delivered
------------------------
pursuant to Section 3.1(d) constitute, as of the Closing Date, all of the
organizational documents (together with all amendments and modifications
thereof) of the Borrower. The Borrower represents that it has delivered to the
Lead Agent true, correct and complete copies of each of the documents set forth
in this Section 4.25.
SECTION 4.26. Year 2000 Compliance. The Borrower has conducted a
--------------------
comprehensive review and assessment of the Borrower's computer applications and
will commence inquiry of the Borrower's key suppliers, vendors and customers
with respect to the "year 2000 problem" (that is, the risk that computer
applications may not be able to properly perform date sensitive functions after
December 31, 1999) and, based on that review and inquiry, the Borrower does not
believe the year 2000 problem will result in an inability on the Borrower's part
to repay the Loans.

Value at the time. The Lead Agent promptly shall notify the Banks of any such
notice given to the Lead Agent.

the Banks in respect of the Letters of Credit.

respect of the Letter of Credit Collateral Account, in addition to the other
rights and remedies provided herein or otherwise available to it, all the rights
and remedies of a secured party upon default under the Uniform Commercial Code
in effect in the State of New York at that time.
(g) The Lead Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in
the custody and preservation of the Letter of Credit Collateral if the Letter of
Credit Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the
Lead Agent accords its own property, it being understood that, assuming such
treatment, the Lead Agent shall not have any responsibility or liability with
respect thereto.
(h) At such time as all Events of Default have been cured or waived in
writing, all amounts remaining in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account shall
be promptly returned to the Borrower. Absent such cure or written waiver, any
surplus of the funds held in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account and
remaining after payment in full of all of the Obligations of the Borrower
hereunder and under any other Loan Document after the Maturity Date shall be
paid to the Borrower or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive such
surplus.

action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the
advice of such counsel, accountants or experts.
SECTION 7.5. Liability of Lead Agent. Neither the Lead Agent nor
-----------------------
any of its affiliates nor any of their respective directors, officers, agents or
employees shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in connection
herewith (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Banks or (ii) in
the absence of its own gross negligence or wilful misconduct. Neither the Lead
Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be
responsible for or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into or verify (i) any
statement, warranty or representation made in connection with this Agreement or
any borrowing hereunder; (ii) the performance or observance of any of the
covenants or agreements of the Borrower; (iii) the satisfaction of any condition
specified in Article III, except receipt of items required to be delivered to
the Lead Agent; or (iv) the validity, effectiveness or genuineness of this
Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any other instrument or writing furnished
in connection herewith. The Lead Agent shall not incur any liability by acting
in reliance upon any notice, consent, certificate, statement, or other writing
(which may be a bank wire, telex or similar writing) be-
96
<PAGE>
lieved by it to be genuine or to be signed by the proper party or parties.
SECTION 7.6. Indemnification. Each Bank shall, ratably in accordance
---------------
with its Commitment, indemnify the Lead Agent and its affiliates and their
respective directors, officers, agents and employees (to the extent not
reimbursed by the Borrower) against any cost, expense (including counsel fees
and disbursements), claim, demand, action, loss or liability (except such as
result from such indemnitee's gross negligence or wilful misconduct) that such
indemnitee may suffer or incur in connection with this Agreement, the other Loan
Documents or any action taken or omitted by such indemnitee hereunder. In the
event that the Lead Agent shall, subsequent to its receipt of indemnification
payment(s) from Banks in accordance with this section, recoup any amount from
the Borrower, or any other party liable therefor in connection with such
indemnification, the Lead Agent shall reimburse the Banks which previously made
the payment(s) pro rata, based upon the actual amounts which were theretofore
--------
paid by each Bank. The Lead Agent shall reimburse such Banks so entitled to
reimbursement within two (2) Domestic Business Days of its receipt of such funds
from the Borrower or such other party liable therefor.
SECTION 7.7. Credit Decision. Each Bank acknowledges that it has,
---------------
independently and without reliance upon the Lead Agent or any other Bank, and
based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its
own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Bank also
acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Lead
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 credit decisions in
taking or not taking any action under this Agreement.
SECTION 7.8. Successor Lead Agent. The Lead Agent may resign at any
--------------------
time by giving notice thereof to the Banks, the Borrower and each other and the
Lead Agent shall resign in the event its Commitment is reduced to zero. In
addition, the Required Banks shall have the right to remove the Lead Agent if at
any time the Lead Agent shall commit gross negligence or willful misconduct.
Upon any such resignation or removal, the Required Banks shall have the right to
appoint a successor Lead Agent, which successor Lead Agent shall, provided no
Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing, be subject to Borrower's
approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or
97
<PAGE>
delayed. If no successor Lead Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required
Banks and approved by the Borrower, and shall have accepted such appointment,
within 30 days after the retiring Lead Agent gives notice of resignation or
after any such removal, then the retiring or removed Lead Agent may, on behalf
of the Banks, appoint a successor Lead Agent, which shall be the Lead Agent who
shall act until the Required Banks shall appoint a Lead Agent. Upon the
acceptance of its appointment as the Lead Agent hereunder by a successor Lead
Agent, such successor Lead Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested
with all the rights and duties of the retiring Lead Agent, and the retiring Lead
Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. After any
retiring Lead Agent's resignation or removal hereunder, the provisions of this
Article shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be
taken by it while it was the Lead Agent. In addition, if Morgan Guaranty Trust
Company of New York ("Morgan"), as Lead Agent, shall at any time hold
------
Commitments equal to less than $10,000,000 in the aggregate, it shall promptly
notify the Banks and the Borrower thereof and shall offer to resign as Lead
Agent. If such offer shall be accepted by the Required Banks (for this purpose
only, Morgan shall be deemed to have accepted its own offer to resign), a
successor Lead Agent shall be appointed in accordance with this Section 7.8.
SECTION 7.9. Financial Covenants. The Lead Agent shall monitor and
-------------------
confirm all financial calculations made by the Borrower contained in the
officer's certificate which shall be delivered by the Borrower pursuant to
Section 5.1 hereof within five (5) days after the Lead Agent's receipt thereof.
If the Lead Agent finds any calculation to be incorrect or believes that an
Event of Default shall have occurred, the Lead Agent shall notify the Borrower
and the Banks thereof, within two (2) Domestic Business Days after such
determination.
SECTION 7.10. Receipt of Notices. All notices, reports and information
------------------
received by the Lead Agent with respect to the Borrower and not otherwise
delivered to the Banks by the Borrower, shall be delivered to the Banks within
one (1) Domestic Business Day of the Lead Agent's receipt thereof.

ARTICLE VIII
CHANGE IN CIRCUMSTANCES
SECTION 8.1. Basis for Determining Interest Rate Inadequate or
-------------------------------------------------
Unfair. If on or prior to the first day of any Interest Period for any Euro-
- ------
Dollar Borrowing, CD Borrowing or Money Market Borrowing:
(a) the Lead Agent is advised by the Reference Bank that deposits in
dollars (in the applicable amounts) are not being offered to the Reference Bank
in the relevant market for such Interest Period, or
(b) in the case of CD Borrowings or Euro-Dollar Borrowings, Banks having
50% or more of the aggregate principal amount of the affected loans advise the
Lead Agent that the Adjusted London Interbank Offered Rate or the Adjusted CD
Rate, as the case may be, as determined by the Lead Agent will not adequately
and fairly reflect the cost to such Banks of funding their Euro-Dollar Loans or
CD Loans for such Interest Period, the Lead Agent shall forthwith give notice
thereof to the Borrower and the Banks, whereupon until the Lead Agent notifies
the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer
exist, (i) the obligations of the Banks to make CD Loans or Euro-Dollar Loans,
as the case may be, or to continue or convert outstanding Loans as or into CD
Loans or Euro-Dollar Loans, as the case may be, shall be suspended and (ii) each
outstanding CD Loan or Euro-Dollar Loan, as the case may be, shall be converted
into a Base Rate Loan on the last day of the then current Interest Period
applicable thereto. Unless the Borrower notifies the Lead Agent at least two
Domestic Business Days before the date of any Euro-Dollar Borrowing, CD
Borrowing or Money Market LIBOR Borrowing for which a Notice of Borrowing has
previously been given that it elects not to borrow on such date, (i) if such
Borrowing is a Committed Borrowing, such Borrowing shall instead be made as a
Base Rate Borrowing and (ii) if such Borrowing is a Money Market LIBOR
Borrowing, the Money Market LIBOR Loans comprising such Borrowing shall bear
interest for each day from and including the first day to but excluding the last
day of the Interest Period applicable thereto at the Base Rate for such day.
SECTION 8.2. Illegality. If, on or after the date of this Agreement,
----------
the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in any
applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or
99
<PAGE>
administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable
agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance
by any Bank (or its Euro-Dollar Lending Office) with any request or directive
(whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or
comparable agency shall make it unlawful or impossible for any Bank (or its
Euro-Dollar Lending Office) to make, maintain or fund its Euro-Dollar Loans, CD
Loans or Money Market Loans or to issue any Letter of Credit as a Fronting Bank
or to participate in any Letter of Credit issued by a Fronting Bank, the Lead
Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the other Banks and the Borrower,
whereupon until such Bank notifies the Borrower and the Lead Agent that the
circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, the obligation of
such Bank to make or convert Euro-Dollar Loans, CD Loans or Money Market Loans
or to issue Letters of Credit shall be suspended. With respect to Euro-Dollar
Loans or Money Market LIBOR Loans, before giving any notice to the Lead Agent
pursuant to this Section, such Bank shall designate a different Euro-Dollar
Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for giving such notice
and will not, in the judgment of such Bank, be otherwise disadvantageous to such
Bank. If such Bank shall determine that it may not lawfully continue to
maintain and fund any of its outstanding Euro-Dollar Loans, CD Loans or Money
Market LIBOR Loans (as the case may be) to maturity and shall so specify in such
notice, the Borrower shall be deemed to have delivered a Notice of Interest Rate
Election and such Euro-Dollar Loan, CD Loan or Money Market LIBOR Loan (as the
case may be) shall be converted as of such date to a Base Rate Loan (without
payment of any amounts that Borrower would otherwise be obligated to pay
pursuant to Section 2.14 hereof with respect to Loans converted pursuant to this
Section 8.2) and, in the case of Euro-Dollar Loans, in an equal principal amount
from such Bank (on which interest and principal shall be payable
contemporaneously with the related Euro-Dollar Loans or CD Loans of the other
Banks), and such Bank shall make such a Base Rate Loan.
If at any time, it shall be unlawful or impossible for any Bank to
make, maintain or fund its Euro-Dollar Loans and CD Loans, the Borrower shall
have the right, upon five (5) Domestic Business Day's notice to the Lead Agent,
to either (x) cause a bank, reasonably acceptable to the Lead Agent, to offer to
purchase the Commitments of such Bank for an amount equal to such Bank's
outstanding Loans, and to become a Bank hereunder, which offer such Bank is
hereby required to accept, or (y) to repay in full all Loans then outstanding of
such Bank,
100
<PAGE>
together with interest and all other amounts due thereon, upon which event, such
Bank's Commitments shall be deemed to be cancelled pursuant to Section 2.12(d).
SECTION 8.3. Increased Cost and Reduced Return.
---------------------------------
(a) If on or after (x) the date hereof, in the case of any Committed
Loan or any obligation to make Committed Loans or (y) the date of the related
Money Market Quote, in the case of any Money Market Loan, the adoption of any
applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in any applicable 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 compliance by any Bank (or its
Applicable Lending Office) with any request or directive (whether or not having
the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency shall
impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve (including, without limitation,
any such requirement imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
System, but excluding (i) with respect to any CD Loan any such requirement
included in an applicable Domestic Reserve Percentage and (ii) with respect to
any Euro-Dollar Loan any such requirement with respect to which such Bank is
entitled to compensation during the relevant Interest Period under Section 2.8),
special deposit, insurance assessment (excluding, with respect to any CD Loan,
any such requirement reflected in an applicable Assessment Rate) or similar
requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit
extended by, any Bank (or its Applicable Lending Office) or shall impose on any
Bank (or its Applicable Lending Office) or on the United States market for
certificates of deposit or the London interbank market any other condition
affecting its Euro-Dollar Loans, CD Loans or Money Market LIBOR Loans, its Note
or its obligation to make such Loans and the result of any of the foregoing is
to increase the cost to such Bank (or its Applicable Lending Office) of making
or maintaining any such Loan, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or
receivable by such Bank (or its Applicable Lending Office) under this Agreement
or under its Note with respect thereto, by an amount deemed by such Bank to be
material, then, within 15 days after demand by such Bank (with a copy to the
Lead Agent), the Borrower shall pay to such Bank such additional amount or
amounts as will compensate such Bank for such increased cost or reduction.
(b) If any Bank shall have reasonably determined that, after the date
hereof, the adoption of any
101
<PAGE>
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 its Parent) as
a consequence of such Bank's obligations hereunder to a level below that which
such Bank (or its Parent) could have achieved but for such adoption, change,
request or directive (taking into consideration its policies with respect to
capital adequacy) by an amount reasonably deemed by such Bank to be material,
then from time to time, within 15 days after demand by such Bank (with a copy to
the Lead Agent), the Borrower shall pay to such Bank such additional amount or
amounts as will compensate such Bank (or its Parent) for such reduction.
(c) Each Bank will promptly notify the Borrower, the Lead Agent of
any event of which it has knowledge, occurring after the date hereof, which will
entitle such Bank to compensation pursuant to this Section and will designate a
different Applicable Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for,
or reduce the amount of, such compensation and will not, in the reasonable
judgment of such Bank, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Bank. A certificate
of any Bank claiming compensation under this Section and setting forth the
additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder shall be conclusive in
the absence of demonstrable error. In determining such amount, such Bank may
use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.
(d) If at any time, any Bank shall be owed amounts pursuant to this
Section 8.3, unless such Bank shall elect to waive the right to be paid the
same, the Borrower shall have the right, upon five (5) Domestic Business Day's
notice to the Lead Agent to either (x) cause a bank, reasonably acceptable to
the Lead Agent, to offer to purchase the Commitments of such Bank for an amount
equal to such Bank's outstanding Loans, and to become a Bank hereunder, which
offer such Bank is hereby required to accept, or (y) to repay in full all Loans
then outstanding of such Bank, together with interest and all other amounts due
thereon, upon which event, such Bank's Commitment shall be deemed to be
cancelled pursuant to Section 2.12(d).
102
<PAGE>
SECTION 8.4. Taxes.
-----
(a) Any and all payments by the Borrower to or for the account of any
Bank, the Lead Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made
free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes,
duties, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all
liabilities with respect thereto, excluding, in the case of each Bank and the
---------
Lead Agent, taxes imposed on its income, and franchise taxes imposed on it, by
the jurisdiction under the laws of which such Bank or the Lead Agent (as the
case may be) is organized or any political subdivision thereof and, in the case
of each Bank, taxes imposed on its income, and franchise or similar taxes
imposed on it, by the jurisdiction of such Bank's Applicable Lending Office or
any political subdivision thereof (all such non-excluded taxes, duties, levies,
imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities being hereinafter
referred to as "Taxes"). If the Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any
-----
Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under any Note or
Letter of Credit or participation therein to any Bank, the Fronting Bank or the
Lead Agent, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after
making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional
sums payable under this Section 8.4) such Bank or the Lead Agent receives an
amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made,
(ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions, (iii) the Borrower shall pay the
full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in
accordance with applicable law and (iv) the Borrower shall furnish to the Lead
Agent, at its address referred to in Section 9.1, the original or a certified
copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof.
(b) In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay any present or future
stamp or documentary taxes and any other excise or property taxes, or charges or
similar levies which arise from any payment made hereunder or under any Note or
Letter of Credit or participation therein or from the execution or delivery of,
or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any Note (hereinafter referred
to as "Other Taxes").
-----------
(c) The Borrower agrees to indemnify each Bank, and the Lead Agent
for the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any
Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable
under this Section 8.4) paid by such Bank or the Lead Agent (as the case may be)
and any liability (including
103
<PAGE>
penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto.
This indemnification shall be made within 15 days from the date such Bank or the
Lead Agent (as the case may be) makes demand therefor.
(d) Each Bank organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the
United States, on or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this
Agreement in the case of each Bank listed on the signature pages hereof and on
or prior to the date on which it becomes a Bank in the case of each other Bank,
and from time to time thereafter if requested in writing by the Borrower (but
only so long as such Bank remains lawfully able to do so), shall provide the
Borrower with Internal Revenue Service form 1001 or 4224, as appropriate, or any
successor form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, certifying that such
Bank is entitled to benefits under an income tax treaty to which the United
States is a party which reduces the rate of withholding tax on payments of
interest or certifying that the income receivable pursuant to this Agreement is
effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United
States. If the form provided by a Bank at the time such Bank first becomes a
party to this Agreement indicates a United States interest withholding tax rate
in excess of zero, withholding tax at such rate shall be considered excluded
from "Taxes" as defined in Section 8.4(a).
(e) For any period with respect to which a Bank has failed to provide
the Borrower with the appropriate form pursuant to Section 8.4(d) (unless such
failure is due to a change in treaty, law or regulation occurring subsequent to
the date on which a form originally was required to be provided), such Bank
shall not be entitled to indemnification under Section 8.4(a) with respect to
Taxes imposed by the United States; provided, however, that should a Bank, which
-------- -------
is otherwise exempt from or subject to a reduced rate of withholding tax, become
subject to Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form required hereunder,
the Borrower shall take such steps as such Bank shall reasonably request to
assist such Bank to recover such Taxes.
(f) If the Borrower is required to pay additional amounts to or for
the account of any Bank pursuant to this Section 8.4, then such Bank will change
the jurisdiction of its Applicable Lending Office so as to eliminate or reduce
any such additional payment which may thereafter accrue if such change, in the
judgment of such Bank, is not otherwise disadvantageous to such Bank.
104
<PAGE>
SECTION 8.5. Base Rate Loans Substituted for Affected Euro-Dollar
----------------------------------------------------
Loans. If (i) the obligation of any Bank to make, or convert outstanding Loans
- -----
to, Euro-Dollar Loans has been suspended pursuant to Section 8.2 or (ii) any
Bank has demanded compensation under Section 8.3 or 8.4 with respect to its CD
Loans or Euro-Dollar Loans and the Borrower shall, by at least five Euro-Dollar
Business Days' prior notice to such Bank through the Lead Agent, have elected
that the provisions of this Section shall apply to such Bank, then, unless and
until such Bank notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such
suspension or demand for compensation no longer exist:
(a) Borrower shall be deemed to have delivered a Notice of Interest
Rate Election with respect to such affected Euro-Dollar Loans or CD Loans and
thereafter all Loans which would otherwise be made (or continued as or converted
into, as the case may be) by such Bank as Euro-Dollar Loans shall be made
instead as Base Rate Loans (on which interest and principal shall be payable
contemporaneously with the related Euro-Dollar Loans or CD Loans of the other
Banks) unless the Borrower shall deliver a Notice of Interest Rate Election
specifying CD Loans, and
(b) after each of its Euro-Dollar Loans or CD Loans (as the case may
be) has been repaid (or converted to a Base Rate Loan), all payments of
principal which would otherwise be applied to repay such Loans shall be applied
to repay its Base Rate Loans instead, and
(c) Borrower will not be required to make any payment which would
otherwise be required by Section 2.14 with respect to such Euro-Dollar Loans or
CD Loans converted to CD Loans or Base Rate Loans pursuant to clause (a) above.

other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided shall
be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.
SECTION 9.3. Expenses; Indemnification.
-------------------------
(a) The Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and
expenses of the Lead Agent (including reasonable fees and disbursements of
special counsel Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP and, in connection with
the preparation of this Agreement, the Loan Documents and the documents and
instruments referred to therein, or any waiver or consent hereunder or any
amendment hereof or any Default or alleged Default hereunder) and (ii) if an

Lead Agent and each Bank, including fees and disbursements of counsel for the
Lead Agent and each of the Banks, in connection with the enforcement of the Loan

(b) The Borrower agrees to indemnify the Lead Agent and each Bank,
their respective affiliates and the
106
<PAGE>
respective directors, officers, agents and employees of the foregoing (each an
"Indemnitee") and hold each Indemnitee harmless from and against any and all
----------
liabilities, losses, damages, costs and expenses of any kind, including, without
limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel, which may be
incurred by such Indemnitee in connection with any investigative, administrative
or judicial proceeding (whether or not such Indemnitee shall be designated a
party thereto) that may at any time (including, without limitation, at any time
following the payment of the Obligations) be imposed on, asserted against or
incurred by any Indemnitee but excluding those liabilities, losses, damages,
costs and expenses incurred solely by reason of the gross negligence or wilful
misconduct of any Indemnitee as finally determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction, as a result of, or arising out of, or in any way related to or by
reason of, (i) any of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents or the
execution, delivery or performance of any Loan Document, (ii) any violation by
the Borrower or the Environmental Affiliates of any applicable Environmental
Law, (iii) any Environmental Claim arising out of the management, use, control,

site activities involving Materials of Environmental Concern, (iv) the breach of
any environmental representation or warranty set forth herein, (v) the grant to
the Lead Agent, and the Banks of any Lien in any property or assets of the
Borrower or any stock or other equity interest in the Borrower, and (vi) the
exercise by the Lead Agent and the Banks of their rights and remedies
(including, without limitation, foreclosure) under any agreements creating any
such Lien. The Borrower's obligations under this Section shall survive the
termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Obligations.
SECTION 9.4. Sharing of Set-Offs. In addition to any rights now or
-------------------
hereafter granted under applicable law or otherwise, and not by way of
limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of
any Event of Default, each Bank is hereby authorized at any time or from time to
time, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind to the
Borrower or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived,
but subject to the prior consent of the Lead Agent, to set off and to
appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand,
provisional or final) and any other indebtedness at any time held or owing by
such Bank (including, without limitation, by branches and agencies of such Bank
wherever located) to or for the credit or
107
<PAGE>
the account of the Borrower against and on account of the Obligations of the
Borrower then due and payable to such Bank under this Agreement or under any of
the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, all interests in
Obligations purchased by such Bank. Each Bank agrees that if it shall, by
exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, receive payment of
a proportion of the aggregate amount of principal and interest due with respect
to any Note held by it or Letter of Credit issued by it (in its capacity as a
Fronting Bank) or participation therein which is greater than the proportion
received by any other Bank in respect of the aggregate amount of principal and
interest due with respect to any Note held by such other Bank or Letter of
Credit issued by such other Bank (in its capacity as a Fronting Bank) or
participated in by such other Bank, the Bank receiving such proportionately
greater payment shall purchase such participations in the Notes held by the
other Banks, and such other adjustments shall be made, as may be required so
that all such payments of principal and interest with respect to the Notes held
by the Banks shall be shared by the Banks pro rata; provided that nothing in
--------
this Section shall impair the right of any Bank to exercise any right of set-off
or counterclaim it may have to any deposits not received in connection with the
Loans and to apply the amount subject to such exercise to the payment of
indebtedness of the Borrower other than its indebtedness under the Notes. The
Borrower agrees, to the fullest extent it may effectively do so under applicable
law, that any holder of a participation in a Note, whether or not acquired
pursuant to the foregoing arrangements, may exercise rights of set-off or
counterclaim and other rights with respect to such participation as fully as if
such holder of a participation were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the
amount of such participation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, any Bank may, by separate agreement with the Borrower, waive its right
to set off contained herein or granted by law and any such written waiver shall
be effective against such Bank under this Section 9.4.
SECTION 9.5. Amendments and Waivers. Any provision of this
----------------------
Agreement or the Notes or other Loan Documents may be amended or waived if, but
only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed by the Borrower
and the Required Banks (and, if the rights or duties of the Lead Agent are
affected thereby, by the Lead Agent); provided that no such amendment or waiver
--------
with respect to this Agreement, the Notes or any other Loan Documents shall,
unless signed by all the Banks, (i) increase or decrease the Commitment of any
Bank (except for a
108
<PAGE>
ratable decrease in the Commitments of all Banks) or subject any Bank to any
additional obligation, (ii) reduce the principal of or rate of interest on any
Loan or any fees hereunder, (iii) postpone the date fixed for any payment of
principal of or interest on any Loan or any fees hereunder or for any reduction
or termination of any Commitment, (iv) change the percentage of the Commitments
or of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Notes, or the number of
Banks, which shall be required for the Banks or any of them to take any action
under this Section or any other provision of this Agreement, (v) modify the
provisions of Section 9.15, (vi) permit Liens on the Unleveraged Assets, or
(vii) modify the provisions of this Section 9.5. From and after an Event of
Default, the Lead Agent shall act in accordance with the provisions of Section
6.2(b). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amendment, waiver or consent shall,
unless in writing and signed by the Designating Lender on behalf of its
Designated Lender affected thereby, (a) subject such Designated Lender to any
additional obligations, (b) reduce the principal of, interest on, or other
amounts due with respect to, the Designated Lender Note made payable to such
Designated Lender, or (c) postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal
of, or interest on, or other amounts due with respect to the Designated Lender
Note made payable to the Designated Lender. In addition, no such amendment or
waiver shall, unless signed by the Swing Lenders and each other Bank affected
thereby, increase the Swing Loan Commitment, postpone the date fixed for the
termination of the Swing Loan Commitment or otherwise affect any of its rights
or obligations hereunder relating to the Swing Loan Commitment or the Swing
Loans.
SECTION 9.6. Successors and Assigns.
----------------------
(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure
to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and
assigns, except that the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of
its rights under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents without the prior
written consent of all Banks and the Lead Agent. The Lead Agent and the Banks
shall not assign their respective interests under this Agreement except as set
forth in Section 7.8 (with respect to the Lead Agent) and this Article IX (with
respect to the Banks).
(b) Any Bank may at any time grant (i) prior to the occurrence of an
Event of Default, to one or more banks or other financial institutions and (ii)
after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default or in
the case of a participation in any Money
109
<PAGE>
Market Loan, to any Person in any amount (in each case, a "Participant")
-----------
participating interests in its Commitment or any or all of its Loans. Any
participation made during the continuation of an Event of Default shall not be
affected by the subsequent cure or waiver of such Event of Default. In the event
of any such grant by a Bank of a participating interest to a Participant,
whether or not upon notice to the Borrower and the Lead Agent, such Bank shall
remain responsible for the performance of its obligations hereunder, and the
Borrower and the Lead Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such
Bank in connection with such Bank's rights and obligations under this Agreement.
Any agreement pursuant to which any Bank may grant such a participating interest
shall provide that such Bank shall retain the sole right and responsibility to
enforce the obligations of the Borrower hereunder including, without limitation,
the right to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of
this Agreement; provided that such participation agreement may provide that such
--------
Bank will not agree to any modification, amendment or waiver of this Agreement
described in clause (i), (ii), (iii), (iv) or (v) of Section 9.5 without the
consent of the Participant. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall, to
the extent provided in its participation agreement, be entitled to the benefits
of Article VIII with respect to its participating interest. An assignment or
other transfer which is not permitted by subsection (c) or (d) below shall be
given effect for purposes of this Agreement only to the extent of a
participating interest granted in accordance with this subsection (b).
(c) Any Bank may at any time assign (i) prior to the occurrence of an
Event of Default to one or more banks or other financial institutions in minimum
amounts of not less than $10,000,000 (or any lesser amount in the case of
assignments to an existing Bank) and (ii) after the occurrence and during the
continuation of an Event of Default, to any Person (in each case, an "Assignee")
--------
all, or a proportionate part of all, of its rights and obligations under this
Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents, and such Assignee shall
assume such rights and obligations, pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption
Agreement in substantially the form of Exhibit "B" hereto executed by such
-----------
Assignee and such transferor Bank, and, prior to the occurrence of an Event of
Default, with (and subject to) the consent of the Borrower and the Lead Agent,
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided that if an
--------
Assignee is an affiliate of such transferor Bank, no such consent shall be
required, provided that if the transferor Bank has a rating as of the date of
such
110
<PAGE>
assignment of A or better, such affiliate shall have a rating of at least A and
with respect to all other Banks, the rating of such affiliate's senior unsecured
indebtedness shall be at least investment grade at such time (although nothing
contained in this Agreement shall limit that right of any Bank to assign its
interest herein as aforesaid to any successor by merger or consolidation); and
provided further that, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an
- ----------------
Event of Default, a Bank may assign its interest herein to any affiliate,
regardless of rating and furthermore, that Borrower's consent to an Assignee
will not be required. Upon execution and delivery of such instrument and payment
by such Assignee to such transferor Bank of an amount equal to the purchase
price agreed between such transferor Bank and such Assignee, such Assignee shall
be a Bank party to this Agreement and shall have all the rights and obligations
of a Bank with a Commitment as set forth in such instrument of assumption, and
no further consent or action by any party shall be required and the transferor
Bank shall be released from its obligations hereunder to a corresponding extent.
Upon the consummation of any assignment pursuant to this subsection (c), the
transferor Bank, the Lead Agent and the Borrower shall make appropriate
arrangements so that, if required, a new Note is issued to the Assignee. In
connection with any such assignment, the transferor Bank shall pay to the Lead
Agent an administrative fee for processing such assignment in the amount of
$2,500. If the Assignee is not incorporated under the laws of the United States
of America or a state thereof, it shall deliver to the Borrower and the Lead
Agent certification as to exemption from deduction or withholding of any United
States federal income taxes in accordance with Section 8.4. Any assignment made
during the continuation of an Event of Default shall not be affected by any
subsequent cure or waiver of such Event of Default.
(d) Any Bank (each, a "Designating Lender") may at any time designate
------------------
one Designated Lender to fund Money Market Loans on behalf of such Designating
Lender subject to the terms of this Section 9.6(d) and the provisions in Section
9.6(b) and (c) shall not apply to such designation. No Bank may designate more
than one (1) Designated Lender. The parties to each such designation shall
execute and deliver to the Lead Agent for its acceptance a Designation
Agreement. Upon such receipt of an appropriately completed Designation
Agreement executed by a Designating Lender and a designee representing that it
is a Designated Lender, the Lead Agent will accept such Designation Agreement
and will give prompt notice thereof to the Borrower, whereupon, (i) the Borrower
shall execute and deliver to the Designating
111
<PAGE>
Bank a Designated Lender Note payable to the order of the Designated Lender,
(ii) from and after the effective date specified in the Designation Agreement,
the Designated Lender shall become a party to this Agreement with a right
(subject to the provisions of Section 2.3(b)) to make Money Market Loans on
behalf of its Designating Lender pursuant to Section 2.3 after the Borrower has
accepted a Money Market Loan (or portion thereof) of the Designating Lender (but
before such Money Market Loan has been made), and (iii) the Designated Lender
shall not be required to make payments with respect to any obligations in this
Agreement except to the extent of excess cash flow of such Designated Lender
which is not otherwise required to repay obligations of such Designated Lender
which are then due and payable; provided, however, that regardless of such
designation and assumption by the Designated Lender, the Designating Lender
shall be and remain obligated to the Borrower, the Co-Agents and the Banks for
each and every of the obligations of the Designating Lender and its related
Designated Lender with respect to this Agreement, including, without limitation,
any indemnification obligations under Section 7.6 hereof and any sums otherwise
payable to the Borrower by the Designated Lender. Each Designating Lender shall
serve as the administrative agent of the Designated Lender and shall on behalf
of, and to the exclusion of, the Designated Lender: (i) receive any and all
payments made for the benefit of the Designated Lender and (ii) give and receive
all communications and notices and take all actions hereunder, including,
without limitation, votes, approvals, waivers, consents and amendments under or
relating to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Any such notice,
communication, vote, approval, waiver, consent or amendment shall be signed by
the Designating Lender as administrative agent for the Designated Lender and
shall not be signed by the Designated Lender on its own behalf and shall be
binding upon the Designated Lender to the same extent as if signed by the
Designated Lender on its own behalf. The Borrower, the Lead Agent, the Co-Agents
and the Banks may rely thereon without any requirement that the Designated
Lender sign or acknowledge the same. No Designated Lender may assign or transfer
all or any portion of its interest hereunder or under any other Loan Document,
other than assignments to the Designating Lender which originally designated
such Designated Lender or otherwise in accordance with the provisions of Section
9.6 (b) and (c).
(e) Any Bank may at any time assign all or any portion of its rights
under this Agreement and its Note to a Federal Reserve Bank. No such assignment
shall release the transferor Bank from its obligations hereunder.
112
<PAGE>
(f) No Assignee, Participant or other transferee of any Bank's rights
shall be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 8.3 or 8.4 than
such Bank would have been entitled to receive with respect to the rights
transferred, unless such transfer is made with the Borrower's prior written
consent or by reason of the provisions of Section 8.2, 8.3 or 8.4 requiring such
Bank to designate a different Applicable Lending Office under certain
circumstances or at a time when the circumstances giving rise to such greater
payment did not exist.
SECTION 9.7. Collateral. Each of the Banks represents to the Lead
----------
Agent and each of the other Banks that it in good faith is not relying upon any
"margin stock" (as defined in Regulation U) as collateral in the extension or
maintenance of the credit provided for in this Agreement.
SECTION 9.8. Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction. (a) THIS
-----------------------------------------
AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE
PARTIES HEREUNDER AND THEREUNDER SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND BE
GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO THE
PRINCIPLES THEREOF RELATING TO CONFLICTS OF LAW).
(b) Any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement or
any other Loan Document and any action for enforcement of any judgment in
respect thereof may be brought in the courts of the State of New York or of the
United States of America for the Southern District of New York, and, by
execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Borrower hereby accepts for itself
and in respect of its property, generally and unconditionally, the non-exclusive
jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts and appellate courts from any thereof. The
Borrower irrevocably consents to the service of process out of any of the
aforementioned courts in any such action or proceeding by the hand delivery, or
mailing of copies thereof by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to

waives any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue
of any of the aforesaid actions or proceedings arising out of or in connection
with this Agreement or any other Loan Document brought in the courts referred to
above and hereby further irrevocably waives and agrees not to plead or claim in
any such court that any such action or proceeding brought in any such court has
been brought in an inconvenient forum. Nothing herein shall affect the right of
the Lead Agent to serve process in any other manner permitted by law or to
113
<PAGE>
commence legal proceedings or otherwise proceed against the Borrower in any
other jurisdiction.
SECTION 9.9. Marshalling; Recapture. Neither of the Lead Agent nor
----------------------
any Bank shall be under any obligation to marshall any assets in favor of the
Borrower or any other party or against or in payment of any or all of the
Obligations. To the extent any Bank receives any payment by or on behalf of the
Borrower in connection with this Agreement, which payment or any part thereof is
subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside
or required to be repaid to the Borrower or its estate, trustee, receiver,
custodian or any other party under any bankruptcy law, state or federal law,
common law or equitable cause, then to the extent of such payment or repayment,
the Obligation or part thereof which has been paid, reduced or satisfied by the
amount so repaid shall be reinstated by the amount so repaid and shall be
included within the liabilities of the Borrower to such Bank as of the date such
initial payment, reduction or satisfaction occurred.
SECTION 9.10. Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This
----------------------------------------
Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an
original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon
the same instrument. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and
understanding among the parties hereto and supersedes any and all prior
agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter
hereof. This Agreement shall become effective upon receipt by the Lead Agent
and the Borrower of counterparts hereof signed by each of the parties hereto
(or, in the case of any party as to which an executed counterpart shall not have
been received, receipt by the Lead Agent in form satisfactory to it of
telegraphic, telex or other written confirmation from such party of execution of
a counterpart hereof by such party).
SECTION 9.11. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE BORROWER, THE LEAD
--------------------
AGENT AND THE BANKS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY
IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE
TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.
SECTION 9.12. Survival. All indemnities set forth herein shall
--------
survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents and the making and repayment of the Loans hereunder.
114
<PAGE>
SECTION 9.13. Domicile of Loans. Each Bank may transfer and carry
-----------------
its Loans at, to or for the account of any domestic or foreign branch office,
subsidiary or affiliate of such Bank.
SECTION 9.14. Limitation of Liability. No claim may be made by the
-----------------------
Borrower or any other Person acting by or through Borrower against the Lead
Agent or any Bank or the affiliates, directors, officers, employees, attorneys
or agent of any of them for any consequential or punitive damages in respect of
any claim for breach of contract or any other theory of liability arising out of
or related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or by the other
Loan Documents, or any act, omission or event occurring in connection therewith;
and the Borrower hereby waives, releases and agrees not to sue upon any claim
for any such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or
suspected to exist in its favor.
SECTION 9.15. Recourse Obligation. This Agreement and the
-------------------
Obligations hereunder are fully recourse to the Borrower. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, no recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant, or agreement
contained in this Agreement shall be had against any officer, director,
shareholder or employee of the Borrower except in the event of fraud or
misappropriation of funds on the part of such officer, director, shareholder or
employee.
SECTION 9.16. Confidentiality. The Lead Agent and the Banks each
---------------
agree (on behalf of themselves and each of their affiliates, directors,
officers, employees and representatives) to use reasonable precautions to keep
confidential, in accordance with their customary procedures for handling
confidential information of this nature and in accordance with safe and sound
practices, any non-public information supplied to them by the Borrower or its
agents pursuant to this Agreement which is identified by the Borrower as being
confidential at the time the same is delivered to the Lead Agent or a Bank, as
applicable, provided that nothing herein shall limit the disclosure of any such
information (i) to the extent required by statute, rule, regulation or judicial
process, (ii) to counsel for the Lead Agent or a Bank, (iii) to examiners,
auditors or accountants (provided that with respect to such auditors or
accountants only, they agree to be bound by the restrictions set forth in this
Section 9.16) or, (iv) to any assignee or participant (or prospective assignee
or participant) so long as such assignee or participant (or prospective assignee
or participant) first agrees to be bound by these provisions. None of the Lead
Agent or the Banks shall be deemed to have
115
<PAGE>
breached this Section 9.16 if a prohibited disclosure of confidential
information by such party is inadvertent.
SECTION 9.17. Legal Rate. Notwithstanding anything in this Credit
----------
Agreement or any Loan Document to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate
applicable to the Notes, together with all fees and charges which are treated
as interest under applicable law (collectively, the "Charges"), as provided for
-------
in this Credit Agreement or in any other document executed in connection
herewith, or otherwise contracted for, charged, received, taken or reserved by
the Lead Agent, on behalf of the Banks, shall exceed the maximum lawful rate
(the "Legal Rate") which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or
----------
reserved by the Lead Agent, on behalf of the Banks in accordance with applicable
law, the rate of interest payable under such Notes, together with all Charges
payable, shall be limited to the Legal Rate and any interest or Charges not so
charged, taken, received or reserved by Lead Agent, on behalf of the Banks at
such time shall be spread, prorated or amortized over the term of such Notes to
the fullest extent permitted by law.
SECTION 9.18. Additional Commitment. (a) The Borrower shall have the
---------------------
right to request that the Lead Agent obtain additional Commitments in the
aggregate amount of up to One Hundred Fifty Million Dollars ($150,000,000)(the
"Additional Commitment"), but in no event in an amount less than Seventy Five
---------------------
Million Dollars ($75,000,000) in the aggregate, which request shall be made by
the Borrower by giving written notice (each, an "Additional Commitment Notice")
----------------------------
to the Lead Agent. The Borrower may deliver an Additional Commitment Notice to
the Lead Agent not more frequently than once every six (6) months until such
time as the aggregate Additional Commitment has been obtained. Upon the approval
of the Required Banks to such request, the Lead Agent shall use its best
efforts, with the assistance of the Borrower, to arrange a syndicate of Banks
with Commitments (not including the initial Commitment), aggregating the
requested Additional Commitment on or before the date which is 90 days after the
Additional Commitment Notice was received by the Lead Agent. If any Bank shall
not accept such additional amount within ten (10) days after receipt of an offer
from the Lead Agent therefor, prior to commencing syndication, the Lead Agent
shall submit a list of proposed bank syndicate members to the Borrower for its
review and approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed. From and after the Syndication Expiration Date, the Agent shall have no
further obligation to syndicate the Facility or to obtain or accept any
additional Commitments with respect to the requested Additional Commitment. For
purposes hereof, the "Syndication Expiration Date" means the
---------------------------
116
<PAGE>
date which is 90 days after the applicable Additional Commitment Notice was
received by the Agent.
(b) Effective as of the closing of the Additional Commitment, during
the remainder of the Term, the Borrower shall pay to the Lead Agent for the
account of the Banks ratably in proportion to their respective Additional
Commitments, a fee equal to .05% per annum on the amount of the Additional
Commitment (the "Increase Facility Fee"). The Increase Facility Fee shall be
---------------------
payable in arrears on each January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1.
117

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to
be duly executed by their respective authorized officers as of the day and year

be entitled to participate therein, and to the extent that it may elect by
written notice delivered to the indemnified party promptly after receiving the
aforesaid notice from such indemnified party, to assume the defense thereof,
with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party, and after receipt of notice
from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to
assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such
indemnified party under this Section for any legal or other expenses

thereof. In no event shall the indemnified party settle or consent to a
settlement of such cause of action or claim without the consent of the

Articles IV and V of the Credit Agreement and such other documents and
information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and
decision to enter into this Designation Agreement; (b) agrees that it will
