ARTICLE II
THE REVOLVING CREDIT LOANS
2.1. The Revolving Credit Loans. (a) On the terms and subject to
the conditions contained in this Agreement, each Lender severally agrees to make
loans (each a "Revolving Credit Loan") to the Borrower from time to time on any
Business Day during the period from the Closing Date until the Final Maturity
Date in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the amount set
forth opposite such Lender's name on Schedule I as its Revolving Credit
Commitment (such Lender's "Revolving Credit Commitment"). Within the limits of
each Lender's Revolving Credit Commitment, amounts prepaid pursuant to Section
2.6(b) may be reborrowed under this Section 2.1. The Revolving Credit Loans of
each Lender shall be evidenced by a Revolving Credit Note.
(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement,
$5,000,000 of the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments of $35,000,000 shall be
held available to pay interest arising under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents, and shall not be available for any other purposes.
2.2. Making the Revolving Credit Loans. (a) Each Revolving Credit
Borrowing shall be made upon receipt of a notice, in substantially the form of
Exhibit B (the "Notice of Revolving Credit Borrowing"), given by the Borrower to
the Agent not later than 11:00 A.M. (Boston time) on the third (or, in the case
of a Borrowing consisting only of Base Rate Loans, the first) Business Day prior
to the date of the proposed Revolving Credit Borrowing (each such date being
referred to herein as a "Closing Date"). Each Notice of Revolving Credit
Borrowing shall be by telecopy, telex or cable, confirmed promptly by a manually
<PAGE>
signed writing, specifying therein (i) the proposed Closing Date, (ii) the
aggregate amount of such proposed Revolving Credit Borrowing, (iii) the amount
thereof, if any, requested to be Eurodollar Rate Loans and (iv) the initial
Interest Period or Periods for any such Eurodollar Rate Loans. Each Revolving
Credit Loan shall be made as a Base Rate Loan unless (subject to Section 2.11)
the Notice of Revolving Credit Borrowing specifies that all or a pro rata
portion thereof shall be Eurodollar Rate Loans; provided, however, that the
aggregate of the Eurodollar Rate Loans for each Interest Period must be in an
amount of not less than $500,000 or an integral multiple of $100,000 in excess
thereof.
(b) The Agent shall give to each Lender prompt notice of the
Agent's receipt of a Notice of Revolving Credit Borrowing and, if Eurodollar
Rate Loans are properly requested in such Notice of Revolving Credit Borrowing,
the applicable interest rate under Section 2.8(b). Each Lender shall, before
11:00 A.M. (Boston time) on the date of the proposed Closing Date, make
available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Agent at its
address referred to in Section 9.2, in immediately available funds, such
Lender's Ratable Portion of such proposed Revolving Credit Borrowing. After the
Agent's receipt of such funds and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions
set forth in Article III, the Agent will make such funds available to the
Borrower at the Agent's aforesaid address.
(c) Each Notice of Revolving Credit Borrowing shall be
irrevocable and binding on the Borrower. In the case of a proposed Revolving
Credit Borrowing which the Notice of Revolving Credit Borrowing specifies is to
be comprised of Eurodollar Rate Loans, the Borrower shall indemnify each Lender
against any loss, cost or expense incurred by such Lender as a result of any
failure to fulfill on or before the date specified in such Notice of Revolving
Credit Borrowing for such proposed Revolving Credit Borrowing the applicable
conditions set forth in Article III, including, without limitation, any loss
(including, without limitation, loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense
incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds
acquired by such Lender to fund any Eurodollar Rate Loan to be made by such
Lender as part of such proposed Borrowing when such Eurodollar Rate Loan, as a
result of such failure, is not made on the specified Closing Date.
<PAGE>
(d) Unless the Agent shall have received notice from a Lender
prior to any proposed Closing Date that such Lender will not make available to
the Agent such Lender's Ratable Portion of such Revolving Credit Borrowing, the
Agent may assume that such Lender has made such Ratable Portion available to the
Agent on the proposed Closing Date in accordance with this Section 2.2 and the
Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a
corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have so
made such Ratable Portion available to the Agent, such Lender and the Borrower
severally agree to repay to the 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
Agent, at (i) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable at the
time to the Revolving Credit Loans comprising such Revolving Credit Borrowing
and (ii) in the case of such Lender, the Federal Funds Rate. If such Lender
shall repay to the Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so repaid shall
constitute such Lender's Revolving Credit Loan as part of such Revolving Credit
Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement. If the Borrower shall repay to the
Agent such corresponding amount, such payment shall not relieve such Lender of
any obligation it may have to the Borrower hereunder.
(e) The failure of any Lender to make the Revolving Credit Loan
to be made by it as part of a Revolving Credit Borrowing shall not relieve any
other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Revolving Credit
Loan on the Closing Date of such Revolving Credit Borrowing, but no Lender shall
be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Revolving Credit
Loan to be made by such other Lender on the such Closing Date.
(f) Each Revolving Credit Borrowing consisting solely of Base
Rate Loans shall be in an aggregate amount of not less than $100,000 or an
integral multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof.
<PAGE>
2.3. Commitment Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to each Lender a
fee on the average daily Available Commitment of such Lender from the date
hereof until the Final Maturity Date at the rate of 1/2 of 1% per annum, payable
in arrears on the first day of each January, April, July and October during the
term of such Lender's Revolving Credit Commitment, and on the Final Maturity
Date.
2.4. Reduction and Termination of the Commitments. (a) The
Borrower shall have the right, upon at least three Business Days' prior notice
to the Agent, to terminate in whole or permanently reduce ratably in part the
unused portions of the respective Revolving Credit Commitments of the Lenders;
provided, however, that each partial reduction shall be in the aggregate amount
of not less than $1,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess
thereof.
(b) The Revolving Credit Commitments shall in any event terminate
in their entirety on the earlier of (i) the occurrence of any Refinancing Event,
or (ii) the Final Maturity Date.
2.5. Repayment. The Borrower shall repay the aggregate unpaid
principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans on the Final Maturity Date.
2.6. Prepayments. (a) The Borrower shall have no right to prepay
the principal amount of any Revolving Credit Loan other than as provided in this
Section 2.6.
(b) The Borrower may, upon at least three Business Days' prior
notice to the Agent stating the proposed date and aggregate principal amount of
the prepayment, and if such notice is given, the Borrower shall prepay the
outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans, in whole or ratably
in part, without penalty, together with accrued interest to the date of such
prepayment on the principal amount prepaid; provided, however, that any
prepayment of any Eurodollar Rate Loan shall include, if applicable, all amounts
payable under Section 9.4(c), and provided, further, that each partial
prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.6(b) shall be in an aggregate amount not
less than $500,000 (or in the case of a prepayment of Base Rate Loans, $100,000)
or integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof.
<PAGE>
(c) If, at any time the aggregate outstanding principal amount of
the Revolving Credit Loans exceeds the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments,
the Borrower shall forthwith prepay ratably the outstanding principal amount of
the Revolving Credit Loans by the amount of such excess, together with accrued
interest to the date of such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid.
(d) Concurrently with the receipt by the Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries of: (i) Asset Sale Proceeds or (ii) Representation Agreement
Termination Payments, the Borrower shall forthwith prepay ratably the Revolving
Credit Loans in an amount equal to such Asset Sale Proceeds or Representation
Agreement Termination Payments, together with accrued interest to the date of
such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid.
(e) Immediately upon the occurrence of any Refinancing Event, the
Borrower shall prepay all the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans, all accrued
interest on the Revolving Credit Loans and all other Obligations.
(f) Any prepayment of Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to this
Section 2.6 made on a day other than the last day of an Interest Period for any
Loans shall be applied first to Base Rate Loans, if any, then outstanding and
second to Eurodollar Rate Loans with the shortest Interest Periods remaining.
2.7. Conversion/Continuation Option. The Borrower may elect (i)
at any time to convert Base Rate Loans or any portion thereof to Eurodollar Rate
Loans, (ii) at the end of any Interest Period with respect thereto, to convert
Eurodollar Rate Loans or any portion thereof into Base Rate Loans, or to
continue such Eurodollar Rate Loans or any portion thereof for an additional
Interest Period; provided, however, that the aggregate of the Eurodollar Loans
for each Interest Period therefor must be in the amount of not less than
$500,000 or an integral multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof. Each conversion
or continuation shall be allocated among the Revolving Credit Loans of the
Lenders in accordance with each Lender's Ratable Portion of the amount so
converted or continued. Each such election shall be in substantially the form of
Exhibit C (a "Notice of Conversion or Continuation") and shall be made by giving
the Agent at least three Business Days' prior written notice thereof specifying
(A) the amount and type of conversion or continuation, (B) in the case of a
conversion to or a continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans, the Interest Period
therefor and (C) in the case of a conversion, the date of conversion (which date
shall be a Business Day and, if a conversion from Eurodollar Rate Loans, shall
also be the last day of the Interest Period therefor). The Agent shall promptly
notify each Lender of its receipt of a Notice of Conversion or Continuation and
of the contents thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no conversion in whole
or in part of Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Rate Loans, and no continuation in
whole or in part of Eurodollar Rate Loans upon the expiration of any Interest
Period therefor, shall be permitted at any time at which a Default or an Event
of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. If, within the time period
required under the terms of this Section 2.7, the Agent does not receive a
Notice of Conversion or Continuation from the Borrower containing a permitted
election to continue any Eurodollar Rate Loans for an additional Interest
Period, then, upon the expiration of the Interest Period therefor, such Loans
will be automatically converted to Base Rate Loans. Each Notice of Conversion or
Continuation shall be irrevocable.
<PAGE>
2.8. Interest. The Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid
principal amount of each Revolving Credit Loan from and including the date
thereof until the principal amount thereof shall be paid in full, at the
following rates per annum:
(a) Base Rate Loans. For Base Rate Loans, at a rate per annum
equal at all times to the Base Rate Margin plus the Base Rate in effect from
time to time, payable quarterly in arrears on the first day of each January,
April, July and October and on the date any Base Rate Loan is converted or paid
in full and on the Final Maturity Date; provided, however, that during the
continuance of an Event of Default, all Base Rate Loans shall bear interest,
payable on demand, at a rate per annum equal at all times to 2.00% above the
Base Rate in effect from time to time plus the Base Rate Margin.
(b) Eurodollar Rate Loans. For Eurodollar Rate Loans, at a rate
per annum equal at all times during the applicable Interest Period for each
Eurodollar Rate Loan to the sum of the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period
plus the Eurodollar Rate Margin, payable in arrears on the last day of such
Interest Period, on the Final Maturity Date and on the date any Eurodollar Rate
Loan is converted or paid in full and, if such Interest Period has a duration of
<PAGE>
more than three months, on each day during such Interest Period which occurs
every three months from the first day of such Interest Period; provided,
however, that during the continuance of an Event of Default, all Eurodollar Rate
Loans shall bear interest, payable on demand, at a rate per annum equal at all
times to 2.00% above the Eurodollar Rate plus the Eurodollar Rate Margin until
the maturity of the Revolving Credit Loans or the end of the Interest Period,
whichever occurs first, and thereafter at 2.00% per annum above the Base Rate in
effect from time to time plus the Base Rate Margin.
2.9. Interest Rate Determination. (a) The Eurodollar Rate for
each Interest Period for Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be determined by the Agent
on the basis of applicable rates furnished to and received by the Agent two
Business Days before the first day of such Interest Period.
(b) The Agent shall give prompt notice to the Borrower and the
Lenders of the applicable interest rate determined by the Agent for purposes of
Section 2.8.
(c) If, with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans, the Majority
Lenders notify the Agent that the Eurodollar Rate for any Interest Period
therefor will not adequately reflect the cost to the Majority Lenders of making
such Loans or funding or maintaining their respective Eurodollar Rate Loans for
such Interest Period, the Agent shall forthwith so notify the Borrower and the
Lenders, whereupon
(i) each Eurodollar Loan will automatically, on the last day of
the then existing Interest Period therefor, convert into a Base Rate Loan; and
(ii) the obligation of the Lenders to make, and the right of the
Borrower to select, Eurodollar Rate Loans or to convert Revolving Credit Loans
into Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended until the Agent shall notify the
Borrower that such Lenders have determined that the circumstances causing such
suspension no longer exist.
<PAGE>
2.10. Increased Costs. If, due to either (i) the introduction of,
or any change (other than any change by way of, imposition or increase of
reserve requirements included in the Eurodollar Rate Reserve Percentage) in the
interpretation of, or compliance with, any law or regulation or (ii) the
compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other
Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law), there shall be
any increase in the cost to any Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or
maintaining any Eurodollar Rate Loans, then the Borrower shall from time to
time, upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Agent), pay
to the Agent for the account of such Lender additional amounts sufficient to
compensate such Lender for such increased cost. A certificate as to the amount
of such increased cost setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for
computing the amount payable to such Lender pursuant to this Section 2.10 shall
be submitted to the Borrower and the Agent by such Lender and such certificate
shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. If the
Borrower so notifies the Agent within five Business Days after any Lender
notifies the Borrower of any increased cost pursuant to the foregoing provisions
of this Section 2.10, the Borrower may either (A) prepay in full all Eurodollar
Rate Loans of such Lender then outstanding in accordance with Section 2.6(b)
and, additionally, reimburse such Lender for such increased cost in accordance
with this Section 2.10 or (B) convert all Eurodollar Rate Loans of all Lenders
then outstanding into Base Rate Loans in accordance with Section 2.7 and,
additionally, reimburse such Lender for such increased cost in accordance with
this Section 2.10.
2.11. Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement, if the introduction of, or any change in or in the interpretation of,
any law or regulation shall make it unlawful, or any central bank or other
Governmental Authority shall assert that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its
Eurodollar Lending Office to make Eurodollar Rate Loans or to continue to fund
or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans, then, on notice thereof and demand therefor
by such Lender to the Borrower through the Agent, (i) the obligation of such
Lender to make or to continue Eurodollar Rate Loans and to convert Base Rate
Loans into Eurodollar Rate Loans shall terminate and (ii) the Borrower shall
forthwith prepay in full all Eurodollar Rate Loans of such Lender then
outstanding, together with interest accrued thereon, except to the extent the
Borrower, within five Business Days of such notice and demand (or such shorter
time as may be required by law), converts all Eurodollar Rate Loans of all
Lenders then outstanding into Base Rate Loans.
<PAGE>
2.12. Capital Adequacy. If either (i) the introduction of, or any
change in or in the interpretation of, or compliance with, any law or regulation
or (ii) compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other
Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law), affects or
would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by any
Lender or any corporation controlling any Lender and such Lender reasonably
determines that such amount is based upon the existence of such Lender's
Revolving Credit Commitment or Revolving Credit Loans and other commitments or
loans of this type, then, upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand
to the Agent), the Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the account of such
Lender, from time to time as specified by such Lender, additional amounts
sufficient to compensate such Lender in the light of such circumstances, to the
extent that such Lender reasonably determines such increase in capital to be
allocable to the existence of such Lender's Revolving Credit Commitment or
Revolving Credit Loans. A certificate as to such amounts setting forth in
reasonable detail the basis for computing the amount payable to such Lender
pursuant to this Section 2.12 shall be submitted to the Borrower and the Agent
by such Lender and such certificate shall be conclusive and binding for all
purposes absent manifest error.
2.13. Payments and Computations. (a) The Borrower shall make each
payment hereunder and under the Revolving Credit Notes not later than 11:00 A.M.
(Boston time) on the day when due, in Dollars, to the Agent at its address
referred to in Section 9.2 in immediately available funds without set-off or
counterclaim. The Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed
immediately available funds relating to the payment of principal or interest or
fees to the Lenders, in accordance with their respective Ratable Portions (other
than amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.10, 2.11, 2.12 or 2.14), for the
account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices, and like funds relating
to the payment of any other amount payable to any Lender to such Lender for the
account of its Applicable Lending Office, in each case to be applied in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Payment received by the Agent after
11:00 A.M. (Boston time) shall be deemed to be received on the next Business
Day.
<PAGE>
(b) The Borrower hereby authorizes each Lender, if and to the
extent payment owed to such Lender is not made when due hereunder as provided in
the first sentence of Section 2.13(a), to charge from time to time against any
or all of the Borrower's accounts with such Lender any amount so due.
(c) All computations of interest based on the Base Rate shall be
made by the Agent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be,
and all computations of interest based on the Eurodollar Rate or the Federal
Funds Rate and of fees shall be made by the Agent on the basis of a year of 360
days, in each case for the actual number of days (including the first day but
excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest and fees
are payable. Each determination by the Agent of an interest rate hereunder shall
be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.
(d) Whenever any payment hereunder or under the Revolving Credit
Notes shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment
shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time
shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or
fees, as the case may be; provided, however, that if such extension would cause
payment of interest on or principal of any Eurodollar Rate Loan to be made in
the next calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding
Business Day.
(e) Unless the Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower
prior to the date on which any payment is due hereunder to the Lenders that the
Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Agent may assume that the
Borrower has made such payment in full to the Agent on such date and the Agent
may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each Lender on
such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the
extent the Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to the Agent,
each Lender shall repay to the Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed
to such Lender together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such
amount is distributed to such Lender until the date such Lender repays such
amount to the Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate.
<PAGE>
2.14. Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by the Borrower hereunder
or under the Revolving Credit Notes shall be made, in accordance with Section
2.13, free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future
taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities
with respect thereto, excluding, (i) in the case of each Lender and the Agent,
taxes imposed on its net income, and franchise taxes imposed on it, by the
jurisdiction under the laws of which such Lender or the Agent, as the case may
be, is organized or any political subdivision thereof, (ii) in the case of each
Lender, taxes measured by its net income, and franchise taxes imposed on it, by
the jurisdiction of such Lender's Applicable Lending Office or any political
subdivision thereof and (iii) in the case of each Lender, United States
withholding tax payable with respect to payments by the Borrower hereunder under
laws (including, without limitation, any statute, treaty, ruling, determination
or regulation) in effect on the Initial Date for such Lender, but not excluding
withholding tax payable as a result of any change in such laws occurring after
the Initial Date (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions,
charges, withholdings and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as "Taxes").
For the purpose of this Section 2.14, the term "Initial Date" shall mean, with
respect to each Lender, the date of this Agreement and, with respect to each
assignee of any Lender, the effective date specified in the Assignment and
Acceptance pursuant to which such assignee becomes a party to this Agreement. If
the Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of
any sum payable hereunder to any Lender or the Agent, (A) the sum payable shall
be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions
(including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section
2.14) such Lender or the Agent, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to
the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (B) the
Borrower shall make such deductions, (C) the Borrower shall pay the full amount
deducted to the relevant taxing authority or other authority in accordance with
applicable law and (D) the Borrower shall deliver to the Agent evidence of such
payment to the relevant taxation or other authority.
<PAGE>
(b) In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay any present or future
stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or
similar levies of the United States or any political subdivision thereof or any
applicable foreign jurisdiction which arise from any payment made hereunder or
under the Revolving Credit Notes or from the execution, delivery or registration
of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or the Revolving Credit Notes
(hereinafter referred to as "Other Taxes"); provided, however, that the Borrower
shall not be required to pay any amount of Other Taxes to the extent arising
from the sale, assignment or other transfer of, or sale of participations in,
any Loan by any Lender.
(c) The Borrower will indemnify each Lender and the Agent for the
full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes or
Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section
2.14) paid by such Lender or the Agent, as the case may be, and any liability
(including, without limitation, for penalties, interest and expenses, except to
the extent that such penalties, interest or expenses are caused by the gross
negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Lender) arising therefrom or
with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or
legally asserted. This indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the
date such Lender or the Agent, as the case may be, makes written demand
therefor.
(d) Within 30 days after the date of any payment by the Borrower
of Taxes or Other Taxes, the Borrower will furnish to the Agent, at its address
referred to in Section 9.2, the original or a certified copy of a receipt
evidencing payment thereof by the Borrower.
<PAGE>
(e) Prior to the date of this Agreement in the case of each
Lender that is a signatory hereto, and on the date of the Assignment and
Acceptance pursuant to which it becomes a Lender in the case of each other
Lender and from time to time thereafter if reasonably requested by the Borrower
or the Agent, each Lender organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the
United States that is entitled to an exemption from United States withholding
tax, or that is subject to such tax at a reduced rate under an applicable tax
treaty, shall provide the Agent and the Borrower with an IRS Form 4224 or Form
1001 or other applicable form, certificate or document prescribed by the IRS
certifying as to such Lender's entitlement to such exemption or reduced rate
with respect to all payments to be made to such Lender hereunder and under the
Revolving Credit Notes. Unless the Borrower and the Agent have received forms or
other documents satisfactory to them indicating that payments hereunder or under
any Revolving Credit Note are not subject to United States withholding tax or
are subject to such tax at a rate reduced by an applicable tax treaty, the
Borrower or the Agent shall withhold taxes from such payments at the applicable
statutory rate in the case of payments to or for any Lender organized under the
laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States.
(f) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of
the Borrower hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Borrower contained
in this Section 2.14 shall survive the payment in full of principal and interest
hereunder and under the Revolving Credit Notes.
2.15. Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Lender shall obtain any
payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of
set-off, or otherwise) on account of the Revolving Credit Loans made by it
(other than pursuant to Section 2.10, 2.11, 2.12 or 2.14) in excess of its
Ratable Portion of payments on account of the Revolving Credit Loans obtained by
all the Lenders, such Lender shall forthwith purchase from the other Lenders
such participations in their Revolving Credit Loans as shall be necessary to
cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment ratably with each of
them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is
thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, such purchase from each Lender
shall be rescinded and such Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the
purchase price to the extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to
such Lender's ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of
such Lender's required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the
purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the
purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered. The Borrower
agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender
<PAGE>
pursuant to this Section 2.15 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law,
exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off) with respect
to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the
Borrower in the amount of such participation.

duly executed and delivered by each Loan Party thereto. This Agreement and each

the Majority Lenders, by notice to the Borrower, declare the Revolving Credit

ARTICLE VIII
THE AGENT
8.1. Authorization and Action.
(a) Each Lender hereby appoints and authorizes the Agent to take
such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to the Agent by the
terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental
thereto. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender hereby authorizes the
Agent to execute and deliver, and to perform its obligations under, each of the
Loan Documents to which the Agent is a party, and to exercise all rights, powers
and remedies that the Agent may have under such Loan Documents.
<PAGE>
(b) As to any matters not expressly provided for by this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation,
enforcement or collection of the Revolving Credit Notes and the Obligations),
the Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action,
but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully
protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the
Majority Lenders, and such instructions shall be binding upon all Lenders and
all holders of the Revolving Credit Notes; provided, however, that the Agent
shall not be required to take any action which the Agent in good faith believes
exposes the Agent to personal liability or which is contrary to this Agreement
or applicable law. The Agent agrees to give to each Lender prompt notice of each
notice given to it by any Loan Party pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or
the other Loan Documents.
8.2. Agent's Reliance, etc. None of the Agent, its Affiliates or
any of their respective directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable
for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in connection
with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, except for its or their own
gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the
generality of the foregoing, the Agent (i) may treat the payee of any Revolving
Credit Note as the holder thereof until such Revolving Credit Note has been
assigned in accordance with Section 9.7; (ii) may consult with legal counsel
(including, without limitation, counsel to the Borrower or any other Loan
Party), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and
shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by
it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts; (iii)
makes no warranty or representation to any Lender and shall not be responsible
to any Lender for any statements, warranties or representations made in or in
connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; (iv) shall not have
any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any
of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents on the part of the Borrower or any other Loan Party or to inspect the
property (including the books and records) of the Borrower or any other Loan
Party; (v) shall not be responsible to any Lender for the due execution,
legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this
<PAGE>
Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any other instrument or document
furnished pursuant hereto or thereto; and (vi) shall incur no liability under or
in respect of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents by acting upon
any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by
telegram, cable or telex) believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the
proper party or parties.
8.3. FNBB and Affiliates. With respect to its Revolving Credit
Commitments and the Revolving Credit Loans made by it and each Revolving Credit
Note issued to it, FNBB shall have the same rights and powers under this
Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not
the Agent; and the term "Lender" or "Lenders" shall, unless otherwise expressly
indicated, include FNBB in its individual capacity. FNBB and its affiliates may
accept deposits from, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of, and
generally engage in any kind of business with, the Borrower or any other Loan
Party and any Person who may do business with or own securities of the Borrower
or any other Loan Party, all as if FNBB were not the Agent and without any duty
to account therefor to the Lenders.
8.4. Lender Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that it
has, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender and
based on the financial statements referred to in Article IV and such other
documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit
analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also
acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or
any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem
appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or
not taking action under this Agreement and other Loan Documents.
8.5. Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify the Agent
and its Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents and advisors (to the
extent not reimbursed by the Borrower or other Loan Parties), ratably according
to the respective then outstanding principal amounts of the Revolving Credit
Notes then held by each of them (or if no Revolving Credit Notes are at the time
outstanding, ratably according to the respective amounts of the aggregate of the
<PAGE>
Lenders' Revolving Credit Commitments), from and against any and all
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits,
costs, expenses or disbursements (including, without limitation, fees and
disbursements of legal counsel) of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be
imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against, the Agent in any way relating to
or arising out of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any action taken
or omitted by the Agent under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents;
provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits,
costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the Agent's gross negligence,
bad faith or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the foregoing, each
Lender agrees to reimburse the Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share
of any out-of-pocket expenses (including fees and disbursements of legal
counsel) incurred by the Agent in connection with the preparation, execution,
delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether
through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in
respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents, to the extent that the Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by
the Borrower or another Loan Party.
8.6. Successor Agent. The Agent may resign at any time by giving
written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon any such
resignation, the Majority Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor
Agent. If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Majority
Lenders, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the
retiring Agent's giving of notice of resignation, then the retiring Agent may,
on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent, which shall be a commercial
bank organized under the laws of the United States of America or of any State
thereof and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000. Upon
the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such
successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the
rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring
Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents. After any retiring Agent's resignation hereunder
<PAGE>
as Agent, the provisions of this Article VIII shall inure to its benefit as to
any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
ARTICLE IX

when mailed as aforesaid, be effective three days after being deposited in the

II or VIII shall not be effective until received by the Agent.
9.3. No Waiver; Remedies. No failure on the part of any Lender or
the Agent to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder or under
any Revolving Credit Note shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any
single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further
exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies herein
provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.
9.4. Costs; Expenses; Indemnities. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay
on demand (i) all costs and out-of-pocket expenses of the Agent in connection
with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification and
amendment of this Agreement, each of the other Loan Documents and each of the
other documents to be delivered hereunder and thereunder, including, without
limitation, the reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses of counsel,
<PAGE>
accountants, appraisers, consultants or industry experts retained by the Agent
with respect thereto and of counsel to the Agent with respect to advising the

including all costs and expenses incurred by the Agent in connection with the
syndication of the Revolving Credit arrangements contemplated by this Agreement
and (ii) all costs and out-of-pocket expenses of the Agent and the Lenders
(including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses

(whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or protection
of legal rights under, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the other
documents to be delivered hereunder and thereunder.
(b) The Borrower agrees to defend, protect, indemnify and hold
harmless the Agent and each Lender and their respective Affiliates, and the
directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, consultants and advisors of
or to any of the foregoing (including, without limitation, those retained in
connection with the satisfaction or attempted satisfaction of any of the
conditions set forth herein) (each of the foregoing being an "Indemnitee") from
and against any and all claims, damages, liabilities, obligations, losses,
penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, disbursements and expenses of any
kind or nature (including, without limitation, fees and disbursements of counsel
to any such Indemnitee) which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against
any such Indemnitee in connection with or arising out of any investigation,
litigation or proceeding, whether or not any such Indemnitee is a party thereto,
whether direct, indirect or consequential in any manner relating to or arising
out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any act, event or
transaction related or attendant thereto, including, without limitation, (i) the
making of any assignments of or participations in the Revolving Credit Loans and
the management of the Revolving Credit Loans or (ii) the use or intended use of
the proceeds of the Revolving Credit Loans or in connection with any
investigation of any potential matter covered hereby or by reason of Section
502(l) of ERISA (collectively, the "Indemnified Matters"); provided, however,
that the Borrower shall not have any obligation hereunder to an Indemnitee with
respect to an Indemnified Matter caused by or resulting from the gross
negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of that Indemnitee, as determined by
<PAGE>
a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment or order;
provided, further, that the Borrower shall have no obligation to any Indemnitee
hereunder with respect to any Indemnified Matter to the extent (i) such
Indemnified Matter arises out of a dispute among the Lenders or between the
Agent and the Lenders or (ii) the manner of the making of any assignment or
participation by such Indemnitee violates the registration provisions of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
(c) If any Lender receives any payment of principal of, or is
subject to a conversion of, any Eurodollar Rate Loan other than on the last day
of an Interest Period relating to such Revolving Credit Loan, as a result of any
payment or conversion made by the Borrower or acceleration of the maturity of
the Revolving Credit Notes pursuant to Section 7.2 or for any other reason, the
Borrower shall, upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the
Agent), pay to the Agent for the account of such Lender all amounts required to
compensate such Lender for any additional losses, costs or expenses which it may
reasonably incur as a result of such payment or conversion, including, without
limitation, any loss (including loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense
incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds
acquired by such Lender to fund or maintain such Loan. A certificate as to such
amounts setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for computing the amount
payable to such Lender pursuant to this Section 9.4(c) shall be submitted to the
Borrower and the Agent by such Lender and such certificate shall be conclusive
and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.
(d) The Borrower agrees that any indemnification or other
protection provided to any Indemnitee pursuant to this Agreement (including,
without limitation, pursuant to this Section 9.4) or any other Loan Document
shall also inure to the benefit of any Person who was at any time an Indemnitee
under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.
<PAGE>
9.5. Right of Set-off. Upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of any Event of Default, each Lender is hereby authorized at any
time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off
and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional
or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such
Lender to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any and all
of the Obligations now or hereafter existing irrespective of whether or not such
Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any Revolving Credit
Note or any other Loan Document and although such Obligations may be unmatured.
Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower after any such set-off and
application made by such Lender; provided, however, that the failure to give
such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The
rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to the other rights and
remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off) which such
Lender may have.
9.6. Binding Effect. (a) This Agreement shall become effective
when it shall have been executed by the Borrower and the Agent and when the
Agent shall have been notified by each Lender that such Lender has executed it
and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower,
the Agent and each Lender and their respective successors and assigns, except
that the Borrower shall not have the right to assign its rights hereunder or any
interest herein without the prior written consent of the Lenders.
(b) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of
the Borrower hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Borrower contained
in Sections 2.14 and 9.4 shall survive the payment in full of principal and
interest hereunder and under the Revolving Credit Notes.
9.7. Assignments and Participations. (a) Each Lender may sell,
transfer, negotiate or assign to one or more other Lenders, commercial banks,
insurance companies, mutual funds or other financial institutions or entities
all or a portion of its Revolving Credit Commitments, the Revolving Credit Loans
<PAGE>
owing to it and the Revolving Credit Notes held by it and a commensurate portion
of its rights and obligations hereunder; provided, however, that (i) each such
assignment shall be of a constant, and not a varying, percentage of all of the
assigning Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement and (ii) the
aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments, Revolving Credit Loans and
Revolving Credit Notes being assigned pursuant to each such assignment
(determined as of the date of the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such
assignment) shall in no event be less than $3,000,000 without the consent of the
Borrower and the Agent (except that such minimum amount shall not apply in the
case of assignments between or among the Lenders and in the case of an
assignment of all of a Lender's Revolving Credit Commitments, Revolving Credit
Loans owing to it or Revolving Credit Notes held by it). The parties to each
assignment shall execute and deliver to the Agent, for its acceptance and
recording, an Assignment and Acceptance, together with the Revolving Credit
Notes (or an affidavit of loss and indemnity with respect to such Revolving
Credit Notes satisfactory to the Agent) subject to such assignment and a
processing and recordation fee of $2,500 (except that no such fee shall be
payable in connection with any such assignment by FNBB within 30 days after the
date of this Agreement). Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and
recording, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and
Acceptance, (A) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the
extent that rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents have been assigned to such assignee pursuant to such Assignment and
Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder and (B) the
assignor thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations under this
Agreement have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance,
relinquish its rights (except those which survive the payment in full of the
Obligations) and be released from its obligations under this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering
all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender's rights and obligations
under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, such Lender shall cease to be
a party hereto).
(b) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the
Lender assignor thereunder and the assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with
<PAGE>
each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) other than as provided
in such Assignment and Acceptance, such assigning Lender makes no representation
or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any of the statements,
warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or
any other Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant
hereto or thereto or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability,
genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other Loan Document
or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto; (ii)
such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no
responsibility with respect to the financial condition of the Borrower or any
other Loan Party or the performance or observance by the Borrower or any other
Loan Party of any of its obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan
Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or
thereto; (iii) such assigning Lender confirms that it has delivered to the
assignee and the assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement
and each of the Loan Documents, together with copies of the financial statements
referred to in Section 4.5 of this Agreement and such other documents and
information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and
decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) such assignee agrees
that it will, independently and without reliance upon such assigning Lender or
any other Lender or the Agent and based on such documents and information as it
shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decision in
taking or not taking action under this Agreement; (v) such assignee appoints and
authorizes the Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise
such powers under this Agreement as are delegated to the Agent by the terms
hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; (vi)
such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of
the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be
performed by it as a Lender; (vii) such assignee specifies as its Domestic
Lending Office (and address for notices) and Eurodollar Lending Office the
offices provided in such Assignment and Acceptance; and (viii) such assignee
attaches the forms prescribed by the IRS certifying as to such assignee's status
for purposes of determining exemption from United States withholding taxes with
respect to all payments to be made to assignee under this Agreement or such
other documents as are necessary to indicate that all such payments are subject
to such rates at a rate reduced by an applicable tax treaty.
<PAGE>
(c) The Agent shall maintain at its address referred to in
Section 9.2 a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted
by it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the
Lenders and the Revolving Credit Commitments of, and principal amount of the
Revolving Credit Loans owing to, each Lender from time to time (the "Register").
The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes,
absent manifest error, and the Loan Parties, the Agent and the Lenders may treat
each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender for all purposes
of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the
Borrower or any Lender at a reasonable time and from time to time upon
reasonable prior notice.
(d) Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by
an assigning Lender and an assignee, together with the Revolving Credit Notes
subject to such assignment, the Agent shall, if such Assignment and Acceptance
has been completed, (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance, (ii) record the
information contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt notice
thereof to the Borrower. Within five Business Days after its receipt of such
notice, the Borrower, at its own expense, shall execute and deliver to the
Agent, in exchange for such surrendered Revolving Credit Notes, new Revolving
Credit Notes to the order of such assignee in an amount equal to the Revolving
Credit Commitments assumed by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance and,
if the assigning Lender has retained Revolving Credit Commitments hereunder, new
Revolving Credit Notes to the order of the assigning Lender in an amount equal
to the Revolving Credit Commitments retained by it hereunder. Such new Revolving
Credit Notes shall be dated the same date as the surrendered Revolving Credit
Notes and be in substantially the form of Exhibit A.
(e) In addition to the other assignment rights provided in this
Section 9.7, each Lender may assign, as collateral or otherwise, any of its
rights under this Agreement (including, without limitation, rights to payments
of principal or interest on the Revolving Credit Notes) to any Federal Reserve
Bank without notice to or consent of the Borrower or the Agent; provided,
however, that no such assignment shall release the assigning Lender from any of
<PAGE>
its obligations hereunder. The terms and conditions of any such assignment and
the documentation evidencing such assignment shall be in form and substance
satisfactory to the assigning Lender and the assignee Federal Reserve Bank.
(f) Each Lender may sell participations to one or more Lenders,
commercial banks, insurance companies, mutual funds or other financial
institutions or entities in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations
under the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its
Revolving Credit Commitments or the Revolving Credit Loans owing to it and the
Revolving Credit Notes held by it). The terms of such participation shall not,
in any event, require the participant's consent to any amendments, waivers or
other modifications of any provision of any Loan Documents, the consent to any
departure by any Loan Party therefrom, or to the exercising or refraining from
exercising any powers or rights which such Lender may have under or in respect
of the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, the right to enforce the
obligations of the Loan Parties), except if any such amendment, waiver or other
modification or consent would (i) reduce the amount, or postpone any date fixed
for, any amount (whether of principal, interest or fees) payable to such
participant under the Loan Documents, to which such participant would otherwise
be entitled under such participation or (ii) result in the release of all or any
substantial portion of the Collateral or any Guarantor other than in accordance
with the Collateral Documents. In the event of the sale of any participation by
any Lender, (i) such Lender's obligations under the Loan Documents (including,
without limitation, its Revolving Credit Commitment to the Borrower hereunder)
shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the
other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) such Lender
shall remain the holder of such Revolving Credit Notes and Obligations for all
purposes of this Agreement, and (iv) the Borrower, the Agent and the other
Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in
connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement.
<PAGE>
(g) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower
shall not, at any time, be obligated to pay to any participant of any interest
of any Lender, under Section 2.11, 2.13 or 2.15, any sum in excess of the sum
which the Borrower would have been obligated to pay to such Lender in respect of
such interest had such participation not been sold.
(h) Any Lender may, in connection with any assignment or
participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section
9.7, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant
any information relating to the Borrower and any of its Subsidiaries furnished
to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower; provided, however, that, prior
to any such disclosure, the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or
participant shall agree to preserve the confidentiality of any confidential
information relating to the Borrower and any such Subsidiary received by it from
such Lender in accordance with Section 9.13.
9.8. GOVERNING LAW; SEVERABILITY. This Agreement and the
Revolving Credit Notes and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto
shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of The
Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Wherever possible, each provision of this
Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under
applicable law, but if any provision of this agreement shall be prohibited by or
invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent
of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such
provision or the remaining provisions of this agreement.
9.9. SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION; JURY TRIAL. (a) Any legal action
or proceeding with respect to this agreement or the Revolving Credit Notes or
any document related hereto may be brought in the courts of The Commonwealth of
Massachusetts or of the United States of America for the District of
Massachusetts, and, by execution and delivery of this agreement, the Borrower
hereby accepts for itself and in respect of its property, generally and
unconditionally, the jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts. The parties hereto
hereby irrevocably waive any objection, including, without limitation, any
objection to the laying of venue or based on the grounds of forum non
conveniens, which any of them may now or hereafter have to the bringing of any
such action or proceeding in such respective jurisdictions.
(b) The Borrower irrevocably consents to the service of process
of any of the aforementioned courts in any such action or proceeding by the
mailing of copies thereof by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to
