     Section 2.       REVOLVING SECURED CREDIT FACILITY

     Section 2.1.     Commitment to Lend; Limitation on Total Commitment.
Subject to the provisions of Section 2.5 and the other terms and conditions set
forth in this Agreement, each of the Lenders severally agrees to lend to the
Borrower and the Borrower may borrow, repay, and reborrow from time to time
between the Effective Date and the Maturity Date upon notice by the Borrower to
the Agent given in accordance with Section 2.5, such sums as are requested by
the Borrower up to a maximum aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding
Obligations (after giving effect to all amounts requested) at any one time equal
to such Lender's Commitment, provided that the sum of the Outstanding
Obligations (after giving effect to all amounts requested) shall not at any time
exceed the Maximum Credit Amount. The Loans shall be made pro rata in accordance
with each Lender's Commitment Percentage and the Lenders shall at all times
immediately adjust INTER SE any inconsistency between each Lender's outstanding
principal amount and each Lender's Commitment. Each request for a Loan hereunder
shall constitute a representation and warranty by the Borrower that the
conditions set forth in Section 10 or Section 11 (whichever is applicable) have
been satisfied on the date of such request and will be satisfied on the proposed
Borrowing Date of the requested Loan, provided that the making of such
representation and warranty by Borrower shall not limit the right of any Lender
not to lend upon a determination by the Requisite Lenders that such conditions
have not been satisfied.

     Section 2.2.     Changes in Total Commitment. The Borrower shall have the
right at any time upon at least ten (10) Business Days' prior written notice to
the Agent (which shall promptly notify each Lender), to reduce by $1,000,000 or
an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof the unborrowed portion of
the then Total Commitment, provided that the Total Commitment shall not be
reduced to less than $50,000,000, whereupon the Commitments of the Lenders shall
be reduced pro rata in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages
by the amount specified in such notice. Upon the effective date of any such
reduction, the Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the respective accounts of
the Lenders the full amount of any commitment fee required under Section 4.2
hereof then accrued and unpaid on the amount of the reduction. No reduction of
the Commitments may be reinstated.

     Section 2.3.     The Notes. The Loans shall be evidenced by separate
promissory notes of the Borrower in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto
(each a "Note"), and completed with appropriate insertions. One Note shall be
payable to the order of each Lender in an aggregate

                                      -19-
<Page>

principal amount equal to such Lender's Commitment. The Borrower irrevocably
authorizes each Lender to make or cause to be made, at or about the time of the
Borrowing Date of any Loan or at the time of receipt of any payment of principal
on such Lender's Note, an appropriate notation on such Lender's Record
reflecting the making of such Loan or (as the case may be) the receipt of such
payment. The outstanding amount of the Loans set forth on such Lender's Record
shall (absent manifest error) be prima facie evidence of the principal amount
thereof owing and unpaid to such Lender, but the failure to record, or any error
in so recording, any such amount on the Record shall not limit or otherwise
affect the obligations of the Borrower hereunder or under any Note to make
payments of principal of or interest on any Note when due.

     Section 2.4.     Interest on Loans.

                      (a) Each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest commencing
with the Borrowing Date thereof at the rate equal to the Base Rate.

                      (b) Each LIBOR Rate Loan shall bear interest for the
period commencing with the Borrowing Date thereof and ending on the last day of
the Interest Period with respect thereto at the rate equal to the Applicable
LIBOR Margin per annum above the LIBOR Rate determined for such Interest Period.

                      (c) The Borrower unconditionally promises, in accordance
with and subject to the provisions of the Loan Documents, to pay interest on
each Loan in arrears on each Interest Payment Date with respect thereto and,
with respect to any LIBOR Rate Loan, on the last day of the Interest Period with
respect thereto.

     Section 2.5.     Requests for Loans.

                      (a) The Borrower shall give to the Agent written notice in
the form of Exhibit B hereto of each Loan requested hereunder (a "Loan Request")
no less than (a) one (1) Business Day prior to the proposed Borrowing Date of
any Base Rate Loan and (b) three (3) Eurodollar Business Days prior to the
proposed Borrowing Date of any LIBOR Rate Loan. Each such notice shall specify
(i) the principal amount of the Loan requested, (ii) the proposed Borrowing Date
of such Loan, (iii) the Interest Period for such Loan, and (iv) the Type of such
Loan, and shall be accompanied by a statement in the form of Exhibit C hereto
signed by a Responsible Officer setting forth in reasonable detail computations
evidencing compliance with the covenants contained in Section 9.1 through
Section 9.5 hereof after giving effect to such requested Loan (a "Compliance
Certificate"). On the same day as the receipt of a Loan Request for a Base Rate
Loan, and within one (1) Business Day after receipt of a Loan Request for a
LIBOR Rate Loan, the Agent shall provide to each of the Lenders by facsimile a
copy of such Loan Request and accompanying Compliance Certificate and each
Lender shall, within 24 hours thereafter (if such following day is a Business
Day, and if not, before 10:30 AM Boston time on the next succeeding Business
Day), notify the Agent if it believes that any of the conditions contained in
Section 11 of this Agreement has not been met or waived. If such a notice is
given, Agent shall poll the Lenders, and the Requisite Lenders shall promptly
determine whether all of the conditions contained in Section 11 of this
Agreement have been met or waived. If no such notice is given by any Lender or
if following such notice the Requisite Lenders determine that the conditions
contained in Section 11 have been met or waived, or, in any event, if all
conditions in Section 11 have in fact been met or waived,

                                      -20-
<Page>

Agent shall notify the Lenders that each of the Lenders shall be obligated to
fund its Commitment Percentage of the requested Loans. Each such Loan Request
shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower and the Borrower shall be
obligated to accept the Loan requested from the Lenders on the proposed
Borrowing Date. Each Loan Request shall be in a minimum aggregate amount of
$1,000,000 or an integral multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof. The Borrower
shall be allowed up to two (2) Loan Requests per month.

                      (b) Notwithstanding anything contained in Section 2.5(a)
to the contrary, in the event that the making of a requested Loan would cause
non-compliance with any of the covenants contained in Section 9.1 through
Section 9.7 hereof, the Agent may, in its sole discretion, reduce the amount of
the Loan Request to an amount which would enable the Borrower to maintain
compliance with such otherwise defaulted covenant or covenants and Borrower
shall accept the Loan made pursuant to such reduced Loan Request.

     Section 2.6.     Conversion Options.

                      (a) The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert

such election; (ii) with respect to any such conversion of a LIBOR Rate Loan
into a Base Rate Loan, such conversion shall only be made on the last day of the
Interest Period with respect thereto; (iii) subject to the further proviso at

the Borrower shall give the Agent at least three (3) Eurodollar Business Days
prior written notice of such election and (iv) no Loan may be converted into a
LIBOR Rate Loan when any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing. The Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders of any such request
received. On the date on which such conversion is being made, each Lender shall
take such action as is necessary to transfer its Commitment Percentage of such
Loans to its Domestic Lending Office or its LIBOR Lending Office, as the case
may be. All or any part of outstanding Loans of any Type may be converted as
provided herein, provided further that each Conversion Request relating to the
conversion of a Base Rate Loan to a LIBOR Rate Loan shall be for an amount equal
to $1,000,000 (unless the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Loans is
less than $1,000,000) or an integral multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof and
shall be irrevocable by the Borrower.

                      (b) Any Loans of any Type may be continued as such upon
the expiration of an Interest Period with respect thereto by compliance by the
Borrower with the notice provisions contained in Section 2.6(a); provided that
no LIBOR Rate Loan may be continued as such when any Default or Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing but shall be automatically converted to a Base
Rate Loan on the last day of the first Interest Period relating thereto ending
during the continuance of any Default or Event of Default of which the officers
of the Agent active upon the Borrower's account have actual knowledge.

                      (c) In the event that the Borrower does not notify the
Agent of its election hereunder with respect to any Loan, such Loan shall be
automatically converted to a Base Rate Loan at the end of the applicable
Interest Period.

                                      -21-
<Page>

                      (d) The Borrower may not request a LIBOR Rate Loan
pursuant to Section 2.5, elect to convert a Base Rate Loan to a LIBOR Rate Loan
pursuant to Section 2.6(a) or elect to continue a LIBOR Rate Loan pursuant to
Section 2.6(b) if, after giving effect thereto, there would be greater than four
(4) LIBOR Rate Loans outstanding. Any Loan Request for a LIBOR Rate Loan that
would create greater than four (4) LIBOR Rate Loans outstanding shall be deemed
to be a Loan Request for a Base Rate Loan.

     Section 2.7.     Funds for Loans.

                      (a) Subject to Section 2.5 and other provisions of this
Agreement, not later than 1:00 p.m. (Boston time) on the proposed Borrowing Date
of any Loans, each of the Lenders will make available to the Agent, at the
Agent's Head Office, in immediately available funds, the amount of such Lender's
Commitment Percentage of the amount of the requested Loans. Upon receipt from
each Lender of such amount, and upon receipt of the documents required by
Sections 10 or 11 (whichever is applicable) and the satisfaction of the other
conditions set forth therein, to the extent applicable, the Agent will make
available to the Borrower the aggregate amount of such Loans made available to
the Agent by the Lenders. The failure or refusal of any Lender to make available
to the Agent at the aforesaid time and place on any Borrowing Date the amount of
its Commitment Percentage of the requested Loans shall not relieve any other
Lender from its several obligation hereunder to make available to the Agent the
amount of such other Lender's Commitment Percentage of any requested Loans but
shall not obligate any other Lender or Agent to fund more than its Commitment
Percentage of the requested Loans or to increase its Commitment Percentage.

                      (b) The Agent may, unless notified to the contrary by any
Lender prior to a Borrowing Date, assume that such Lender has made available to
the Agent on such Borrowing Date the amount of such Lender's Commitment
Percentage of the Loans to be made on such Borrowing Date, and the Agent may
(but it shall not be required to), in reliance upon such assumption, make
available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If any Lender makes available
to the Agent such amount on a date after such Borrowing Date, such Lender shall
pay to the Agent on demand an amount equal to the product of (i) the average
computed for the period referred to in clause (iii) below, of the weighted
average interest rate paid by the Agent for federal funds acquired by the Agent
during each day included in such period, times (ii) the amount of such Lender's
Commitment Percentage of such Loans, times (iii) a fraction, the numerator of
which is the number of days or portion thereof that elapsed from and including
such Borrowing Date to the date on which the amount of such Lender's Commitment
Percentage of such Loans shall become immediately available to the Agent, and
the denominator of which is 365. A statement of the Agent submitted to such
Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this paragraph shall be prima
facie evidence of the amount due and owing to the Agent by such Lender.

     Section 2.8.     Extension of Maturity Date. On any Business Day not more
than ninety (90) but at least thirty (30) days prior to December 20, 2003, the
Borrower, by written notice to the Agent, may request an extension of the
Maturity Date to December 20, 2004. The obligation of each Lender to extend the
Maturity Date as requested by the Borrower is subject to the condition precedent
that the Borrower shall deliver to the Agent and the Lenders written
certification (the

                                      -22-
<Page>

"Extension Certification") that, as of the original Maturity Date of December
20, 2003 (the "Extension Date"), the following statements are true:

     (a) the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement and the
     other Loan Documents are, subject to the exceptions described in clauses
     (i), (ii) and (iii) of Section 11.1 hereof, correct on and as of the
     Extension Date, before and after giving effect to such extension, as though
     made on and as of such date (or, if any such representation or warranty is
     expressly stated to have been made as of a specific date, as of such
     specific date);

     (b) the stated maturity date of the Existing Credit Facility is later than
     December 20, 2004; and

     (c) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or
     would occur as a result of the extension requested.

Upon timely notice by Borrower pursuant to the first sentence of this Section
2.8 and delivery by the Borrower to the Agent and the Lenders of the Extension
Certification on the Extension Date, the Maturity Date shall, effective as of
the Extension Date, be December 20, 2004.

     Section 3.       REPAYMENT OF THE LOANS

     Section 3.1.     Maturity. The Borrower unconditionally promises, in
accordance with, and subject to, the provisions of the Loan Documents, to pay on
the Maturity Date, and there shall become absolutely due and payable on the
Maturity Date, all of the Loans outstanding on such date, together with any and
all accrued and unpaid interest and charges thereon.

     Section 3.2.     Mandatory Repayments of Loan. If at any time the sum of
the Outstanding Obligations exceeds the Maximum Credit Amount, then the Borrower
shall immediately pay the amount of such excess to the Agent for the respective
accounts of the Lenders for application to the Loans, provided, however, that if
as of the end of any fiscal quarter of the Borrower the sum of the Outstanding
Obligations exceeds the Maximum Credit Amount by less than $100,000 solely as a
result of principal amortization within such fiscal quarter with respect to a
Structured Finance Collateral Asset (as certified to by a Responsible Officer of
the Company (on behalf of the Borrower and as demonstrated on the compliance
statement required pursuant to Section 6.4 hereof for such fiscal quarter), no
repayment shall be required under this Section 3.2.

     Section 3.3.     Optional Repayments of Loans. The Borrower shall have the
right, at its election, to repay the outstanding amount of the Loans, as a whole
or in part, on any Business Day, without penalty or premium; provided that the
full or partial prepayment of the outstanding amount of any LIBOR Rate Loans
made pursuant to this Section 3.3 may be made only on the last day of the
Interest Period relating thereto, except as set forth below in this Section 3.3.
The Borrower shall give the Agent no later than 10:00 a.m., Boston time, at
least one (1) Business Day's prior written notice of any prepayment pursuant to
this Section 3.3 of any Base Rate Loans and three (3) Eurodollar Business Days'
notice of any proposed repayment pursuant to this Section 3.3 of any LIBOR Rate
Loans, specifying the proposed date of payment of Loans and the principal amount
to be paid. The Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the principal amount
of such payment to be

                                      -23-
<Page>

received by such Lender. Each such partial prepayment of the Loans shall be in
an integral multiple of $1,000,000 (or, if the aggregate outstanding principal
amount of Loans is less than $1,000,000, the full amount thereof) provided that
if partial prepayment is received in connection with payment received from an
underlying obligor or other party to a Structured Finance Collateral Asset, the
amount so received may be prepaid and, to the extent requested by the Agent,
shall be accompanied by the payment of all charges outstanding on all Loans and
of accrued interest on the principal repaid to the date of payment. Unless
otherwise requested by the Borrower, the principal payments so received shall be
applied first to the principal of Base Rate Loans and then to the principal of
LIBOR Rate Loans. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the
Borrower may make a full or partial prepayment of a LIBOR Rate Loan on a date
other than the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto, if all such
optional prepayments (in whole or in part) on such Loans shall be accompanied
by, and the Borrower hereby promises to pay, a prepayment fee in an amount
determined by the Agent in the following manner:

                      (a) Fixed Rate Prepayment Fee. Borrower acknowledges that
prepayment or acceleration of a LIBOR Rate Loan during an Interest Period shall
result in the Lenders incurring additional costs, expenses and/or liabilities
and that it is extremely difficult and impractical to ascertain the extent of
such costs, expenses and/or liabilities. (For all purposes of this Section, any
Loan not being made as a LIBOR Rate Loan in accordance with the Loan Request
therefor, as a result of Borrower's cancellation thereof, shall be treated as if
such LIBOR Rate Loan had been prepaid.) Therefore, on the date a LIBOR Rate Loan
is prepaid or the date all sums payable hereunder become due and payable, by
acceleration or otherwise ("Prepayment Date"), Borrower will pay to Agent, for
the account of each Lender, (in addition to all other sums then owing), an
amount ("Fixed Rate Prepayment Fee") determined by the Agent as follows: The
current rate for United States Treasury securities (bills on a discounted basis
shall be converted to a bond equivalent) with a maturity date closest to the end
of the Interest Period as to which prepayment is made, shall be subtracted from
the interest rate applicable to the LIBOR Rate Loan being prepaid. If the result
is zero or a negative number, there shall be no Fixed Rate Prepayment Fee. If
the result is a positive number, then the resulting percentage shall be
multiplied by the amount of the LIBOR Rate Loan being prepaid. The resulting
amount shall be divided by 360 and multiplied by the number of days remaining in
the Interest Period as to which the prepayment is being made. The resulting
amount shall be the Fixed Rate Prepayment Fee.

                      (b) Upon the written notice to Borrower from Agent,
Borrower shall immediately pay to Agent, for the account of the Lenders, the
Fixed Rate Prepayment Fee. Such written notice (which shall include calculations
in reasonable detail) shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and
binding on the parties hereto.

                      (c) Borrower understands, agrees and acknowledges the
following: (i) no Lender has any obligation to purchase, sell and/or match funds
in connection with the use of the LIBOR Rate as a basis for calculating the rate
of interest on a LIBOR Rate Loan; (ii) the LIBOR Rate is used merely as a
reference in determining such rate; and (iii) Borrower has accepted the LIBOR
Rate as a reasonable and fair basis for calculating such rate and a Fixed Rate
Prepayment Fee. Borrower further agrees to pay the Fixed Rate Prepayment Fee, if
any, whether or not a Lender elects to purchase, sell and/or match funds.

     Section 4.       CERTAIN GENERAL PROVISIONS

     Section 4.1.     Fees. On the Effective Date, the Borrower shall pay to
each of the Lenders hereunder, the fees in the amounts specified in the
respective fee agreements among the Borrower and each of the Lenders.

     Section 4.2.     Commitment Fee. The Borrower shall pay to the Agent for
the accounts of the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitment
Percentages a commitment fee calculated at the rate of 25 basis points per annum
on the average daily amount by which the Total Commitment (as it may have been
reduced pursuant to Section 2.2) exceeds the Outstanding Obligations (such
excess, the "Unused Amount"). The commitment fee shall be payable on the basis
of the applicable annual rate quarterly in arrears on or before the third
Business Day of each calendar quarter for the immediately preceding calendar
quarter commencing on April 3, 2002, with a final payment on the Maturity Date
or any earlier date on which the Commitments shall terminate.

     Section 4.3.     Funds for Payments.

                      (a) All payments of principal, interest, closing fees,
commitment fees and any other amounts due hereunder (other than as provided in
Section 4.1, Section 4.5 and Section 4.6) or under any of the other Loan
Documents, and all prepayments, shall be made to the Agent, for the respective
accounts of the Lenders, at the Agent's Head Office, in each case in Dollars in
immediately available funds.

                      (b) All payments by the Borrower hereunder and under any
of the other Loan Documents shall be made without setoff or counterclaim and
free and clear of and without deduction for any taxes, levies, imposts, duties,
charges, fees, deductions, withholdings, compulsory liens, restrictions or
conditions of any nature now or hereafter imposed or levied by any jurisdiction
or any political subdivision thereof or taxing or other authority therein unless
the Borrower is compelled by law to make such deduction or withholding. If any
such obligation is imposed upon the Borrower with respect to any amount payable
by it hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, the Borrower shall pay
to the Agent, for the account of the Lenders or (as the case may be) the Agent,
on the date on which such amount is due and payable hereunder or under such
other Loan Document, such additional amount in Dollars as shall be necessary to
enable the Lenders or the Agent to receive the same net amount which the Lenders
or the Agent would have received on such due date had no such obligation been
imposed upon the Borrower. The Borrower will deliver promptly to the Agent
certificates or other valid vouchers for all taxes or other charges deducted
from or paid with respect to payments made by the Borrower hereunder or under
such other Loan Document.

                      (c) In the event that Borrower is obligated to pay any
additional amounts described in clause (b) above in respect of any Lender's
Loan, such Lender shall make commercially reasonable efforts to change the
jurisdiction of its lending office if, in the reasonable judgment of such
Lender, doing so would eliminate or reduce Borrower's obligation to pay such
additional amounts and would not be disadvantageous to such Lender.

                                      -25-
<Page>

                      (d) All payments shall be applied first to the payment of
all fees, expenses and other amounts due to the Agent and the Lenders (excluding
principal and interest), then to accrued interest, and the balance on account of
outstanding principal; provided, however, that after an Event of Default
hereunder, payments will be applied to the obligations of the Borrower to the
Agent as the Requisite Lenders determine in their sole discretion.

     Section 4.4.     Computations. All computations of interest on the Loans
and of other fees to the extent applicable shall be based on a 360-day year and
paid for the actual number of days elapsed. Except as otherwise provided in the
definition of the term "Interest Period" with respect to LIBOR Rate Loans,
whenever a payment hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents becomes
due on a day that is not a Business Day, the due date for such payment shall be
extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and interest shall accrue during
such extension.

     Section 4.5.     Additional Costs, Etc. If any change from and after the
date hereof in any present or future applicable law which expression, as used
herein, includes statutes, rules and regulations thereunder and interpretations
thereof by any competent court or by any governmental or other regulatory body
or official charged with the administration or the interpretation thereof and
requests, directives, instructions and notices at any time or from time to time
hereafter made upon or otherwise issued to any Lender or the Agent by any
central bank or other fiscal, monetary or other authority (whether or not having
the force of law), shall:

                      (a) subject any Lender or the Agent to any tax, levy,
impost, duty, charge, fee, deduction or withholding of any nature with respect
to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, such Lender's Commitment or the
Loans (other than taxes based upon or measured by the income or profits of such
Lender or the Agent), or

                      (b) materially change the basis of taxation (except for
changes in taxes on income or profits) of payments to any Lender of the
principal of or the interest on any Loans or any other amounts payable to any
Lender under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or

                      (c) impose or increase or render applicable (other than to
the extent specifically provided for elsewhere in this Agreement) any special
deposit, reserve, assessment, liquidity, capital adequacy or other similar
requirements (whether or not having the force of law) against assets held by, or
deposits in or for the account of, or Loans by, or commitments of an office of
any Lender, or

                      (d) impose on any Lender any other conditions or
requirements with respect to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the
Loans, the Commitment, or any class of Loans or commitments of which any of the
Loans or the Commitment forms a part;

and the result of any of the foregoing is

                      (i) to increase the cost to such Lender of making,
funding, issuing, renewing, extending or maintaining any of the Loans or such
Lender's Commitment, or

                      (ii) to reduce the amount of principal, interest or other
amount payable to such Lender or the Agent hereunder on account of the
Commitments or any of the Loans, or

                                      -26-
<Page>

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

then, and in each such case, the Borrower will, upon demand made by such Lender
or (as the case may be) the Agent at any time and from time to time and as often
as the occasion therefor may arise, pay to such Lender or the Agent, to the
extent permitted by law, such additional amounts as will be sufficient to
compensate such Lender or the Agent for such additional cost, reduction, payment
or foregone interest or other sum.

     Section 4.6.     Capital Adequacy. If any present or future law,
governmental rule, regulation, policy, guideline or directive (whether or not
having the force of law) or the interpretation thereof by a court or
governmental authority with appropriate jurisdiction affects the amount of
capital required or expected to be maintained by banks or bank holding companies
and any Lender or the Agent determines that the amount of capital required to be
maintained by it is increased by or based upon the existence of the Loans made
or deemed to be made pursuant hereto, then such Lender or the Agent may notify
the Borrower of such fact, and the Borrower shall pay to such Lender or the
Agent from time to time on demand, as an additional fee payable hereunder, such
amount as such Lender or the Agent shall determine in good faith and certify in
a notice to the Borrower to be an amount that will adequately compensate such
Lender or the Agent in light of these circumstances for its increased costs of
maintaining such capital. Each Lender and the Agent shall allocate such cost
increases among its customers in good faith and on an equitable basis.

     Section 4.7.     Certificate. Each Lender shall notify the Borrower and the
Agent of any event occurring after the Effective Date entitling such Lender to
compensation under Section 4.5 or Section 4.6 as promptly as practicable. A
certificate setting forth any additional amounts payable pursuant to Sections
4.5 or 4.6 and a brief explanation of such amounts which are due, submitted by
any Lender or the Agent to the Borrower, shall be prima facie evidence that such
amounts are due and owing.

     Section 4.8.     Indemnity. In addition to the other provisions of this
Agreement regarding any such matters, the Borrower agrees to indemnify each
Lender and to hold each Lender harmless from and against any loss or reasonable
cost or expense (including loss of anticipated profits) that such Lender may
sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) a default by the Borrower in payment of
the principal amount of or any interest on any LIBOR Rate Loans as and when due
and payable, including any such loss or expense caused by Borrower's breach or
other default and arising from interest or fees payable by such Lender to
lenders of funds obtained by it in order to maintain its LIBOR Rate Loans, (b) a
default by the Borrower in making a borrowing or conversion after the Borrower
has given (or is deemed to have given) a Loan Request or a Conversion Request,
and (c) the making of any payment of a LIBOR Rate Loan or the making of any
conversion of a LIBOR Rate Loan to a Base Rate Loan on a day that is not the
last day of the applicable Interest Period with respect thereto, including
interest or fees payable by such Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in
order to maintain any such LIBOR Rate Loan (including, but not limited to, any
fees payable under Section 3.3(a) hereof).

                                      -27-
<Page>

     Section 4.9.     Interest on Overdue Amounts. Overdue principal and (to the
extent permitted by applicable law) interest on the Loans and all other overdue
amounts payable hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, including
amounts owed from and after the occurrence of an Event of Default, shall bear
interest compounded monthly and payable on demand at a rate per annum equal to
four percent (4%) above the Base Rate until such amount shall be paid in full
(after as well as before judgment).

     Section 4.10.    Inability to Determine LIBOR Rate. In the event, prior to
the commencement of any Interest Period relating to any LIBOR Rate Loan, the
Agent shall reasonably determine that adequate and reasonable methods do not
exist for ascertaining the LIBOR Rate that would otherwise determine the rate of
interest to be applicable to any LIBOR Rate Loan during any Interest Period, the
Agent shall forthwith give notice of such determination (which shall be
conclusive and binding on the Borrower) to the Borrower. In such event (a) any
Loan Request with respect to LIBOR Rate Loans shall be automatically withdrawn
and shall be deemed a request for Base Rate Loans, (b) each then outstanding
LIBOR Rate Loan will automatically, on the last day of the then current Interest
Period thereof, become a Base Rate Loan, and (c) the obligations of the Lenders
to make LIBOR Rate Loans shall be suspended until the Agent determines that the
circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, whereupon the
Agent shall so notify the Borrower.

     Section 4.11.    Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provisions herein,
if any present or future law, regulation, treaty or directive or in the
interpretation or application thereof shall make it unlawful for any Lender to
make or maintain LIBOR Rate Loans, such Lender shall forthwith give notice of
such circumstances to the Borrower and the Agent and thereupon (a) the
Commitment of such Lender to make LIBOR Rate Loans or convert Loans of another
Type to LIBOR Rate Loans shall forthwith be suspended and (b) the LIBOR Rate
Loans then outstanding shall be converted automatically to Base Rate Loans on
the last day of each Interest Period applicable to such LIBOR Rate Loans or
within such earlier period as may be required by law. The Borrower hereby agrees
promptly to pay to the Agent for the account of such Lender, upon demand, any
additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender for any costs incurred by
such Lender in making any conversion in accordance with this Section 4.11,
including any interest or fees payable by such Lender to lenders of funds
obtained by it in order to make or maintain its LIBOR Rate Loans hereunder.

     Section 4.12.    Replacement of Lenders. If Agent or any of the Lenders
shall make a notice or demand upon the Borrower pursuant to Section 4.3, Section
4.5, Section 4.6, or Section 4.11 based on circumstances or laws which are not
generally applicable to the Lenders organized under the laws of the United
States or any State thereof, the Borrower shall have the right to replace such
Lender with an Eligible Assignee selected by the Borrower and approved by the
Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). In such
event the assignment shall take place as promptly as reasonably practicable on a
date set by the Agent at which time the assigning Lender and the Eligible
Assignee shall enter into an Assignment and Acceptance as contemplated by
Section 19.1 (and clause (c) or (d) thereof shall not be applicable) and the
assigning Lender shall receive from the Eligible Assignee or the Borrower a sum
equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Loans owed to the assigning
Lender together with accrued interest thereon plus the accrued commitment fee
under Section 4.2 allocated to the assigning Lender, and the replaced Lender
shall be

                                      -28-
<Page>

released from all of the obligations of a Lender hereunder from and after the
effective date of its replacement.

     Section 5.       STRUCTURED FINANCE COLLATERAL ASSETS; NO LIMITATION ON
RECOURSE

     Section 5.1.     Structured Finance Collateral Assets.

     (a)  The Borrower represents and warrants that each of the Structured
Finance Collateral Assets listed on Schedule 1.1 will on the Effective Date
satisfy all of the conditions set forth in the definition of Structured Finance
Collateral Asset. The Lenders confirm that each of the Structured Finance
Collateral Assets listed on Schedule 1.1 is, on the Effective Date, accepted as
a Structured Finance Collateral Asset. From time to time during the term of this
Agreement, upon the written consent of both (x) the Requisite Lenders in their
sole discretion and (y) each of Fleet National Bank, First Union National Bank,
and Sovereign Bank, to the extent each of them shall be as of such date of
determination a Lender holding a Commitment of at least $15,000,000, in each
case in their sole respective discretion (which in each case of (x) and (y)
consent shall not be unreasonably delayed), additional assets may become
Structured Finance Collateral Assets and certain assets which previously
satisfied the conditions set forth in the definition of Structured Finance
Collateral Asset may cease to be Structured Finance Collateral Assets by virtue
of payment of the underlying obligations, creation of Liens or other reasons.
There shall be attached to each Compliance Certificate delivered pursuant to
Section 7.4(d) or Section 7.13 an updated listing of the Structured Finance
Collateral Assets relied upon by the Borrower in computing the covenants set
forth in Section 5 in such Compliance Certificate. Compliance Certificates
delivered pursuant to Section 2.5(a) shall include an updated listing of the
Structured Finance Collateral Assets and shall include such updated listing
whenever a redetermination of the Structured Finance Collateral Assets Values
for all Structured Finance Collateral Assets based on such an updated listing
would result in a material decrease (from that shown on the most recently
delivered Compliance Certificate) in the Structured Finance Collateral Assets
Values for all Structured Finance Collateral Assets by virtue of payment of the
underlying obligations, creation of Liens or other reasons.

     Section 5.2.     Waivers by Requisite Lenders. If any asset fails to
satisfy any of the requirements contained in the definition of Structured
Finance Collateral Asset then the applicable asset may nevertheless be deemed to
be a Structured Finance Collateral Asset hereunder if both (x) the Requisite
Lenders in their sole discretion and (y) each of Fleet National Bank, First
Union National Bank, and Sovereign Bank, to the extent each of them shall be as
of such date of determination a Lender holding a Commitment of at least
$15,000,000, in each case in their sole respective discretion, vote to accept
such asset as a Structured Finance Collateral Asset.

     Section 5.3.     Rejection of Structured Finance Collateral Assets. If at
any time the Agent reasonably determines that any asset listed as a Structured
Finance Collateral Asset by the Borrower does not satisfy all of the
requirements of the definition of Structured Finance Collateral Asset other than
clause (v) thereof (to the extent not waived by the Requisite Lenders pursuant
to Section 5.2), it may upon three (3) Business Day's notice to the Borrower
reject a Structured Finance Collateral Asset by notice to the Borrower, and if
the Agent so requests the Borrower

                                      -29-
<Page>

shall revise the applicable Compliance Certificate to reflect the resulting
change in the Structured Finance Collateral Asset Values.

adequate reserves with respect thereto; and provided further that the Borrower

security therefor.

not waive, modify, alter, satisfy, cancel or subordinate any Structured Finance
Collateral Asset in any respect if the effect of such waiver, modification,

such unused portion of the Commitments hereunder shall terminate immediately and
the Lenders shall be relieved of all further obligations to make Loans. No

     Section 12.3.    Remedies. In case any one or more of the Events of Default
shall have occurred, and whether or not the Requisite Lenders shall have
accelerated the maturity of the Loans pursuant to Section 12.1, each Lender, if
owed any amount with respect to the Loans, may, with the consent of the
Requisite Lenders, direct the Agent to proceed to protect and enforce the rights
and remedies of the Agent and the Lenders under this Agreement, the Notes, the
Collateral Documents or any of the other Loan Documents by suit in equity,
action at law or other appropriate proceeding, whether for the specific
performance of any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement, the
Collateral Documents, the other Loan Documents or any instrument pursuant to
which the Obligations are evidenced and, if any amount shall have become due, by
declaration or otherwise, to proceed to enforce the payment thereof or any other
legal or equitable right of such Lender. No remedy herein conferred upon any
Lender or the Agent or the holder of any Note is intended to be exclusive of any
other remedy and each and every remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in
addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at
law or in equity or by statute or any other provision of law.

     Section 12.4.    Distribution of Enforcement Proceeds. In the event that,
following the occurrence or during the continuance of any Default or Event of

connection with the enforcement of any of the Loan Documents, such monies shall
be distributed for application as follows:

                      (a) First, to the payment of, or (as the case may be) the
reimbursement of the Agent for or in respect of all reasonable costs, expenses,
disbursements and losses which shall have been incurred or sustained by the
Agent in connection with the collection of such monies by the Agent, for the
exercise, protection or enforcement by the Agent of all or any of the rights,
remedies, powers and privileges of the Agent or the Lenders under this Agreement
or any of the other Loan Documents or in support of any provision of adequate
indemnity to the Agent against any taxes or liens which by law shall have, or
may have, priority over the rights of the Agent to such monies;

                      (b) Second, to all other Obligations in such order or
preference as the Requisite Lenders may determine; provided, however, that
distribution in respect of such Obligations shall be made among the Lenders pro
rata in accordance with each Lender's respective Commitment Percentage;

                                      -54-
<Page>

                      (c) Third, upon payment and satisfaction in full or other
provisions for payment in full satisfactory to the Requisite Lenders and the
Agent of all of the Obligations, to the payment of any obligations required to
be paid pursuant to Section 9-504(1)(c) of the Uniform Commercial Code of the
State of New York; and

                      (d) Fourth, the excess, if any, shall be returned to the
Borrower or to such other Persons as are legally entitled thereto.

     Section 13.      SETOFF. During the continuance of any Event of Default,
any deposits (general or specific, time or demand, provisional or final,
regardless of currency, maturity, or the branch of where such deposits are held)
or other sums credited by or due from any of the Lenders to the Borrower, the
Company or any of the other Guarantors and any securities or other property of
the Borrower, the Company or any of the other Guarantors in the possession of
such Lender may be applied to or set off against the payment of Obligations and
any and all other liabilities, direct, or indirect, absolute or contingent, due
or to become due, now existing or hereafter arising, of the Borrower to such
Lender. Each of the Lenders agrees with each other Lender that (a) if an amount
to be set off is to be applied to Indebtedness of the Borrower, the Company or
any of the other Guarantors to such Lender, other than Indebtedness evidenced by
the Notes held by such Lender, such amount shall be applied ratably to such
other Indebtedness and to the Indebtedness evidenced by all such Notes held by
such Lender, and (b) if such Lender shall receive from the Borrower, the Company
or any of the other Guarantors, whether by voluntary payment, exercise of the
right of setoff, counterclaim, cross action, enforcement of the claim evidenced
by the Notes held by such Lender by proceedings against the Borrower, the
Company or any of the other Guarantors at law or in equity or by proof thereof
in bankruptcy, reorganization, liquidation, receivership or similar proceedings,
or otherwise, and shall retain and apply to the payment of the Note or Notes
held by such Lender any amount in excess of its ratable portion of the payments
received by all of the Lenders with respect to the Notes held by all of the
Lenders, such Lender will make such disposition and arrangements with the other
Lenders with respect to such excess, either by way of distribution, pro tanto
assignment of claims, subrogation or otherwise as shall result in each Lender
receiving in respect of the Notes held by it its proportionate payment as
contemplated by this Agreement; provided that if all or any part of such excess
payment is thereafter recovered from such Lender, such disposition and
arrangements shall be rescinded and the amount restored to the extent of such
recovery, but without interest.

     Section 14.      THE AGENT

     Section 14.1.    Authorization. The Agent is authorized to take such action
on behalf of each of the Lenders and to exercise all such powers as are
hereunder and under any of the other Loan Documents and any related documents
delegated to the Agent, together with such powers as are reasonably incident
thereto, provided that no duties or responsibilities not expressly assumed
herein or therein shall be implied to have been assumed by the Agent. The
relationship between the Agent and the Lenders is and shall be that of agent and
principal only, and nothing contained in this Agreement or any of the other Loan
Documents shall be construed to constitute the Agent as a trustee for any
Lender.

discretion may reasonably determine, and all reasonable fees and expenses of
such Persons shall be paid by the Borrower.

     Section 14.3.    No Liability to Lenders. Neither the Agent nor any of its
shareholders, directors, officers or employees nor any other Person assisting
them in their duties nor any agent or employee thereof, shall be liable to any
Lender for any waiver, consent or approval given or any action taken, or omitted
to be taken, in good faith by it or them hereunder or under any of the other
Loan Documents, or in connection herewith or therewith, or be responsible for
the consequences of any oversight or error of judgment whatsoever, except that
the Agent or such other Person, as the case may be, shall be liable for losses
due to its willful misconduct or gross negligence.

     Section 14.4.    No Representations. The Agent shall not be responsible for
the execution or validity or enforceability of this Agreement, the Notes, any of
the other Loan Documents or any instrument at any time constituting, or intended
to constitute, collateral security for the Notes, or for the value of any such
collateral security or for the validity, enforceability or collectability of any
such amounts owing with respect to the Notes, or for any recitals or statements,
warranties or representations made herein or in any of the other Loan Documents
or in any certificate or instrument hereafter furnished to it by or on behalf of
the Borrower, or be bound to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or
observance of any of the terms, conditions, covenants or agreements herein or in
any instrument at any time constituting, or intended to constitute, collateral
security for the Notes. The Agent shall not be bound to ascertain whether any
notice, consent, waiver or request delivered to it by the Borrower or any
Guarantor or any holder of any of the Notes shall have been duly authorized or
is true, accurate and complete. The Agent has not made nor does it now make any
representations or warranties, express or implied, nor does it assume any
liability to the Lenders, with respect to the credit worthiness or financial
condition of the Borrower, the Company or any of the other Guarantors. Each
Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the
Agent or any other Lender, and based upon such information and documents as it
has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into
this Agreement. Each Lender has been independently represented by separate
counsel on all matters regarding this Agreement.

     Section 14.5.    Payments.

     (a)  A payment by the Borrower to the Agent hereunder or any of the other
Loan Documents for the account of any Lender shall constitute a payment to such
Lender subject to the pro rata rights to repayment based upon the Commitment
Percentage of each Lender. Neither the Borrower nor any Guarantor shall have any
obligation to see to the proper application by Agent of any amounts paid by any
of them to the Agent for the account of the Lenders. The Agent agrees promptly
to distribute to each Lender such Lender's pro rata share of payments received
by the Agent for the account of the Lenders except as otherwise expressly
provided herein or in any of the other Loan Documents.

                                      -56-
<Page>

     (b)  If in the opinion of the Agent the distribution of any amount received
by it in such capacity hereunder, under the Notes or under any of the other Loan
Documents might involve it in liability, it may refrain from making distribution
until its right to make distribution shall have been adjudicated by a court of
competent jurisdiction. If a court of competent jurisdiction shall adjudge that
any amount received and distributed by the Agent is to be repaid, each Person to
whom any such distribution shall have been made shall either repay to the Agent
its proportionate share of the amount so adjudged to be repaid or shall pay over
the same in such manner and to such Persons as shall be determined by such
court.

     (c)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement
or any of the other Loan Documents, any Lender that fails (i) to make available
to the Agent its pro rata share of any Loan or (ii) to comply with the
provisions of Section 13 with respect to making dispositions and arrangements
with the other Lenders, where such Lender's share of any payment received,
whether by setoff or otherwise, is in excess of its pro rata share of such
payments due and payable to all of the Lenders, in each case as, when and to the
full extent required by the provisions of this Agreement, or to adjust promptly
such Lender's outstanding principal and its pro rata Commitment Percentage as
provided in Section 2.1 hereof, shall be deemed delinquent (a "Delinquent
Lender") and shall be deemed a Delinquent Lender until such time as such
delinquency is satisfied. A Delinquent Lender shall be deemed to have assigned
any and all payments due to it from the Borrower under the Loan Documents,
whether on account of outstanding Loans, interest, fees or otherwise, to the
remaining nondelinquent Lenders for application to, and reduction of, their
respective pro rata shares of all outstanding Loans. The Delinquent Lender
hereby authorizes the Agent to distribute such payments to the nondelinquent
Lenders in proportion to their respective pro rata shares of all outstanding
Loans. A Delinquent Lender shall be deemed to have satisfied in full a
delinquency when and if, as a result of application of the assigned payments to
all outstanding Loans of the nondelinquent Lenders, the Lenders' respective pro
rata shares of all outstanding Loans have returned to those in effect
immediately prior to such delinquency and without giving effect to the
nonpayment causing such delinquency.

     (d)  If any amount which the Agent is required to distribute to the Lenders
pursuant to this Section 14.5 is actually distributed to any Lender on a date
which is later than the first Business Day following the Agent's receipt of the
corresponding payment from the Borrower, the Agent shall pay to such Lender on
demand an amount equal to the product of (i) the average computed for the period
referred to in clause (iii) below, of the weighted average interest rate paid by
the Agent for federal funds acquired by the Agent during each day included in
such period, times (ii) the amount of such late distribution to such Lender,
times (iii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days or portion
thereof that elapsed from and including the second Business Day after the
Agent's receipt of such corresponding payment from the Borrower to the date on
which the amount so required to be distributed to such Lender actually is
distributed, and the denominator of which is 365.

     Section 14.6.    Holders of Notes. The Agent may deem and treat the payee
of any Note as the absolute owner or purchaser thereof for all purposes hereof
until it shall have been furnished in writing with a different name by such
payee or by a subsequent holder assignee or transferee.

                                      -57-

     Section 14.7.    Indemnity. The Lenders ratably agree hereby to indemnify
and hold harmless the Agent from and against any and all claims, actions and
suits (whether groundless or otherwise), losses, damages, costs, expenses
(including any expenses for which the Agent has not been reimbursed by the
Borrower and the Guarantors as required by Section 15), and liabilities of every
nature and character arising out of or related to this Agreement, the Notes, or
any of the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated or evidenced
hereby or thereby, or the Agent's actions taken hereunder or thereunder, except
to the extent that any of the same shall be directly caused by the Agent's
willful misconduct or gross negligence.

     Section 14.8.    Agent as Lender. In its individual capacity, Fleet
National Bank shall have the same obligations and the same rights, powers and
privileges in respect to its Commitment and the Loans made by it, and as the
holder of any of the Notes as it would have were it not also the Agent.

     Section 14.9.    Resignation. The Agent may resign at any time by giving
sixty (60) days, prior written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower;
provided, however, that unless an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, Fleet National Bank may not voluntarily resign as Agent under the
provisions of this Agreement without the Borrower's consent. Upon any such
resignation, the Requisite Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor
Agent. Unless a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, appointment of such successor Agent shall be subject to the
reasonable approval of the Borrower. If no successor Agent shall have been so
appointed by the Requisite Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment
within thirty (30) days after the giving of notice of resignation or removal or
if the Borrower (to the extent it has approval rights with respect to the
successor Agent) has disapproved or failed to approve a successor agent within
such period, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a
successor Agent, which shall be a financial institution having a rating of not
less than A2/P2 or its equivalent by Standard & Poor's Corporation. 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 as Agent hereunder.
After any retiring Agent's resignation, the provisions of this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any
actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as Agent.

     Section 14.10.   Notification of Defaults and Events of Default and other
Notices. Each Lender hereby agrees that, upon learning of the existence of a
Default or an Event of Default, it shall promptly notify the Agent thereof. The
Agent hereby agrees that upon receipt of any notice under this Section 14.10, or
upon it otherwise learning of the existence of a Default or an Event of Default,
it shall promptly notify the other Lenders of the existence of such Default or
Event of Default. The Agent shall also promptly provide each Lender with a copy
of any notices which the Agent receives from the Borrower pursuant to Section
7.5 or Section 7.13.

     Section 14.11.   Duties in the Case of Enforcement. In case one of more
Events of Default have occurred and shall be continuing, and whether or not
acceleration of the Obligations shall have occurred, the Agent may, with the
consent of the Requisite Lenders (which consents may be obtained orally in
emergency situations), and the Agent shall, if (a) so requested by the Requisite
Lenders and (b) the Lenders have provided to the Agent such additional
indemnities

                                      -58-
<Page>

and assurances against expenses and liabilities as the Agent may reasonably
request, proceed to enforce the provisions of the Loan Documents and exercise
all or any such other legal and equitable and other rights or remedies as it may
have. The Requisite Lenders may direct the Agent in writing as to the method and
the extent of any such enforcement actions, the Lenders hereby agreeing to
indemnify and hold the Agent harmless from all liabilities incurred in respect
of all actions taken or omitted in accordance with such directions, provided
that the Agent need not comply with any such direction to the extent that the
Agent reasonably believes the Agent's compliance with such direction to be
unlawful or commercially unreasonable in any applicable jurisdiction.

     Section 14.12.   Mandatory Resignation of Agent. The Agent shall be
obligated to resign in accordance with, and subject to, the provisions of
Section 14.9, without the consent of the Borrower, upon the written request of
Lenders whose aggregate Commitments constitute at least sixty-six percent (66%)
of the Total Commitment excluding the Commitment of the Lender which is then the
Agent hereunder, provided such request is made for cause (provided, however,
than in the case of a request for resignation of Fleet National Bank, as Agent,
such cause must constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct), and provided
further that the successor Agent actively administers credits of similar size
and complexity to this Agreement and the Loans.

     Section 14.13.   Matters as to Borrower. (a) Except as expressly set forth
in this Agreement, Borrower shall have no obligation to cause Agent or any of
the Lenders to perform their respective obligations under this Agreement.

     (b)  Notwithstanding that a matter in question requires the consent,
approval or direction of any or all of the Lenders, Borrower may rely
exclusively on the written notice of Agent (which shall include evidence that
such consent, approval or direction shall have been obtained in accordance with
the provisions of Section 26 hereof, if applicable) that such consent, approval,
or direction has been given or obtained to bind the Lenders.

     Section 14.14.   Concerning the Collateral and the Collateral Documents.
(a) Each Lender agrees that any action taken by the Agent or the Requisite
Lenders (or, where required by the express terms of this Agreement, a greater
proportion of the Lenders) in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement
or of the other Loan Documents, and the exercise by the Agent or the Requisite
Lenders (or, where so required, such greater proportion) of the powers set forth
herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental
thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the Lenders. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agent shall have the sole and
exclusive right and authority to (i) act as the disbursing and collecting agent
for the Lenders with respect to all payments and collections arising in
connection with the Collateral Documents; (ii) execute and deliver each
Collateral Document and accept delivery of each such agreement delivered by the
Borrower, any Guarantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries; (iii) act as
collateral agent for the Lenders for purposes of the perfection of all security
interests and Liens created by such agreements and all other purposes stated in
the Collateral Documents; (iv) manage, supervise and otherwise deal with the
Collateral; (v) take such action as is necessary or desirable to maintain the
perfection and priority of the security interests and Liens created or purported
to be created by the Collateral Documents; and (vi) except as may be otherwise
specifically restricted by the terms hereof or of any other Loan Document,
exercise all remedies given to the Agent and the Lenders as secured

                                      -59-
<Page>

parties with respect to the Collateral under the Collateral Documents relating
thereto, applicable law or otherwise.

                      (b) Provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing (but subject to the provisions of clause (ii) of this paragraph (b)),
each of the Lenders hereby directs, in accordance with the terms hereof, the
Agent to release any Lien held by the Agent for the benefit of the Lenders and
the Agent hereby agrees that it shall release any such Lien:

                           (i)     against all of the Collateral, upon
                                   termination of the Commitments and payment
                                   and satisfaction in full of all Loans and all
                                   other Obligations which have matured and
                                   which the Agent has been notified in writing
                                   are then due and payable;

                           (ii)    against any Collateral sold or disposed of by
                                   the Borrower or a Guarantor or paid off by
                                   the underlying borrower or obligor, or no
                                   longer necessary to satisfy the Maximum
                                   Credit Amount limitation, which Collateral is
                                   specified to the Agent by the Borrower upon
                                   at least seven (7) days written notice,
                                   provided that (x) for so long as no Event of
                                   Default has occurred and is continuing, the
                                   principal amount of the Obligations is
                                   prepaid to the extent necessary to make the
                                   principal amount of the Obligations no more
                                   than equal to the Maximum Credit Amount after
                                   giving effect to the release of the
                                   Collateral (as certified to by the chief
                                   financial officer of the Borrower), and (y)
                                   during the occurrence and continuance of an
                                   Event of Default, (i) the Obligations are
                                   prepaid in an amount equal to 100% of the
                                   proceeds received by the Borrower from the
                                   sale or other disposition of such Collateral
                                   and (ii) the consent of the Requisite Lenders
                                   is obtained; and

                           (iii)   against any part of the Collateral, if such
                                   release is consented to by the Requisite
                                   Lenders.

Each of the Lenders hereby directs the Agent (and the Agent hereby agrees) to
execute and deliver or file such termination and partial release statements and
do such other things as are necessary to release Liens to be released pursuant
to this Section 14.14 promptly upon the effectiveness of any such release.

     Section 15.      EXPENSES. The Borrower and each of the Guarantors jointly
and severally agree to pay (a) the reasonable costs of producing and reproducing
this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the other agreements and
instruments mentioned herein, (b) any taxes (including any interest and
penalties in respect thereto) payable by the Agent or any of the Lenders (other
than taxes based upon the Agent's or any Lender's net income), including any
recording, mortgage, documentary or intangibles taxes in connection with the
Loan Documents, or other taxes payable on or with respect to the transactions

review and analysis of any documentation relating to any Structured Finance
Collateral Asset which the Borrower requests to become Collateral after the date
of this Agreement, (f) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including
reasonable attorneys' fees and costs, which attorneys may be employees of any
Lender or the Agent and the fees and costs of appraisers, engineers, investment
bankers, surveyors or other experts retained by the Agent or any Lender in
connection with any such enforcement proceedings) incurred by any Lender or the

administration thereof after the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default
(including, without limitation, expenses incurred in any restructuring and/or
"workout" of the Loans), and (ii) any litigation, proceeding or dispute whether
arising hereunder or otherwise, in any way related to the Agent's or the
Lender's relationship with the Borrower, the Company, any Unconsolidated Entity

Section 15 shall survive payment or satisfaction of payment of amounts owing
with respect to the Notes.

     Section 16.      INDEMNIFICATION. The Borrower and each of the Guarantors
hereby jointly and severally agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Agent and
the Lenders and the shareholders, directors, agents, officers, subsidiaries, and
affiliates of the Agent and the Lenders from and against any and all claims,
actions or causes of action and suits whether groundless or otherwise, and from
and against any and all Liabilities, losses, settlement payments, obligations,
damages and expenses of every nature and character arising out of this Agreement
or any of the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or
which otherwise arise in connection with the financing including, without
limitation except to the extent directly caused by the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of a Lender or the Agent or any of the aforementioned
indemnified parties (but such limitation on indemnification shall only apply to
the Agent or Lender or any of the aforementioned indemnified parties being
grossly negligent or committing willful misconduct), (a) any actual or proposed
use by the Borrower of the proceeds of any of the Loans, (b) any actual or
alleged infringement of any patent, copyright, trademark, service mark or

<Page>

death, personal injury or damage to property), (e) any cost, claim liability,
damage or expense in connection with any harm the Borrower or any of the
Guarantors may be found to have caused in the role of a broker, in each case
including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel

proceeding, or (f) any interest of the Lenders or the Agent arising out of or as
a result of the Collateral or the Collateral Documents, including, but not
limited to, interests owned or held as Secured Parties and interests owned or
held as a result of the exercise of remedies under the Loan Documents. In
litigation, or the preparation therefor, the Lenders and the Agent shall each be
entitled to select their own separate counsel and, in addition to the foregoing
indemnity, the Borrower and each of the Guarantors jointly and severally agree
to pay promptly the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. If, and to the
extent that the obligations of the Borrower or any of the Guarantors under this
Section 16 are unenforceable for any reason, the Borrower and each of the
Guarantors jointly and severally agree to make the maximum contribution to the
payment in satisfaction of such obligations which is permissible under
applicable law. The provisions of this Section 16 shall survive the repayment of
the Loans and the termination of the obligations of the Lenders hereunder and
shall continue in full force and effect as to the Lenders so long as the
possibility of any such claim, action, cause of action or suit exists.

     Section 17.      SURVIVAL OF COVENANTS, ETC. All covenants, agreements,
representations and warranties made herein, in the Notes, in any of the other
Loan Documents or in any documents or other papers delivered by or on behalf of
the Borrower or any Guarantor pursuant hereto shall be deemed to have been
relied upon by the Lenders and the Agent, notwithstanding any investigation
heretofore or hereafter made by it, and shall survive the making by the Lenders
of the Loans, as herein contemplated, and shall continue in full force and
effect so long as any amount due under this Agreement or the Notes or any of the
other Loan Documents remains outstanding or the Lenders have any obligation to
make any Loans. The indemnification obligations of the Borrower and the
Guarantors provided herein and the other Loan Documents shall survive the full
repayment of amounts due and the termination of the obligations of the Lenders
hereunder and thereunder to the extent provided herein and therein. All
statements contained in any certificate or other paper delivered to the Agent or
any Lender at any time by or on behalf of the Borrower or any of the Guarantors
pursuant hereto or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby
(other than third party reports, such as engineering reports and environmental
studies) shall constitute representations and warranties by the Borrower or any
of the Guarantors hereunder.

     Section 18.      GUARANTY.

     Section 18.1.    Guaranty. Subject to Section 18.7 below, each of the
Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, unconditionally guarantees to each
Lender and the Agent the prompt payment of the Guaranteed Obligations in full
when due (whether at stated maturity, as a mandatory prepayment, by acceleration
or otherwise) (the "Guaranty"). The Guarantors additionally, jointly and
severally, unconditionally guarantee to each Lender and the Agent the timely
performance of all other obligations of the Borrower under the Loan Documents.
This Guaranty is a guaranty of payment and not of collection and is a continuing
guaranty and shall apply to Guaranteed Obligations whenever arising.

                                      -62-
<Page>

     Section 18.2.    Obligations Unconditional. The obligations of the
Guarantors hereunder are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of the value,
genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of any of the Guaranteed
Obligations or any of the Loan Documents, or any other agreement or instrument
referred to therein, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law,
irrespective of any other circumstance whatsoever which might otherwise
constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor.
Each Guarantor agrees that this Guaranty may be enforced by the Agent, on behalf
of the Lenders, without necessity at any time of resorting to or exhausting any
other security or collateral and without the necessity at any time of having
recourse to the Notes, any other of the Loan Documents or the Collateral, and
each Guarantor hereby waives the right to require the Lenders to proceed against
the Borrower or any other Person (including a co-guarantor) or to require the
Lenders to pursue any other remedy or enforce any other right. Each Guarantor
further agrees that it shall have no right of subrogation, indemnity,
reimbursement or contribution against the Borrower or any other Guarantor of the
Guaranteed Obligations for amounts paid under this Guaranty until such time as
the Lenders have been paid in full, all Commitments under this Agreement have
been terminated, and no Person or governmental authority shall have any right to
request any return or reimbursement of funds from the Lenders in connection with
monies received under the Loan Documents. Each Guarantor further agrees that
nothing contained herein shall prevent the Agent or the Lenders from suing on
the Notes or any of the other Loan Documents or foreclosing their security
interest in or Lien on the Collateral or from exercising any other rights
available to them under this Agreement, the Notes, any other of the Loan
Documents, or any other instrument of security, if any, and the exercise of any
of the aforesaid rights and the completion of any foreclosure proceedings shall
not constitute a discharge of any Guarantor's obligations hereunder; it being
the purpose and intent of each Guarantor that its obligations hereunder shall be
absolute, independent and unconditional under any and all circumstances. Neither
any Guarantor's obligations under this Guaranty nor any remedy for the
enforcement thereof shall be impaired, modified, changed or released in any
manner whatsoever by an impairment, modification, change, release or limitation
of the liability of the Borrower or by reason of the bankruptcy or insolvency of
the Borrower. Each Guarantor waives any and all notice of the creation, renewal,
extension or accrual of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and notice of or proof
of reliance of by, the Agent or any Lender upon this Guaranty or acceptance of
this Guaranty. The Guaranteed Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively
be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred, or renewed, extended,
amended or waived, in reliance upon this Guaranty. All dealings between the
Borrowers and any of the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Agent and the
Lenders, on the other hand, likewise shall be conclusively presumed to have been
had or consummated in reliance upon this Guaranty.

     Section 18.3.    Modifications. Each Guarantor agrees that (a) all or any
part of the security now or hereafter held for the Guaranteed Obligations, if
any, may be exchanged, compromised or surrendered from time to time; (b) the
Lenders shall not have any obligation to protect, perfect, secure or insure any
such security interests, Liens or encumbrances now or hereafter held, if any,
for the Guaranteed Obligations or the properties subject thereto; (c) the time
or place of payment of the Guaranteed Obligations may be changed or extended, in
whole or in part, to a time certain or otherwise, and may be renewed or
accelerated, in whole or in part; (d) the Borrower and any other party liable
for payment under the Loan Documents may be granted indulgences generally; (e)
any of the provisions of the Notes or any of the other Loan Documents may be
modified, amended or waived; (f) any party (including any co-guarantor) liable
for the payment thereof

                                      -63-
<Page>

may be granted indulgences or be released; and (g) any deposit balance for the
credit of the Borrower or any other party liable for the payment of the
Guaranteed Obligations or liable upon any security therefor may be released, in
whole or in part, at, before or after the stated, extended or accelerated
maturity of the Guaranteed Obligations, all without notice to or further assent
by such Guarantor, which shall remain bound thereon, notwithstanding any such
exchange, compromise, surrender, extension, renewal, acceleration, modification,
indulgence or release. Each Guarantor hereby appoints the Borrower as its agent
to execute and deliver any amendments to or modifications or waivers of the Loan
Documents, and the Agent and the Lenders may rely on such appointment until such
time as a Guarantor advises the Agent and the Lenders in writing that the
Borrower is no longer authorized to so act as its agent.

     Section 18.4.    Waiver of Rights. Each Guarantor expressly waives to the
fullest extent permitted by applicable law: (a) notice of acceptance of this
Guaranty by the Lenders and of all extensions of credit to the Borrower by the
Lenders; (b) presentment and demand for payment or performance of any of the
Guaranteed Obligations; (c) protest and notice of dishonor or of default (except
as specifically required in this Agreement) with respect to the Guaranteed
Obligations or with respect to any security therefor: (d) notice of the Lenders
obtaining, amending, substituting for, releasing, waiving or modifying any
security interest, Lien or encumbrance, if any, hereafter securing the
Guaranteed Obligations, or the Lenders' subordinating, compromising, discharging
or releasing such security interests, Liens or encumbrances, if any; (e) all
other notices to which such Guarantor might otherwise be entitled; and (f)
demand for payment under this Guaranty.

     Section 18.5.    Reinstatement. The obligations of the Guarantors under
this Section 18 shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for
any reason any payment by or on behalf of any Person in respect of the
Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder
of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings in
bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise, and each Guarantor agrees that it
will indemnify the Agent and each Lender on demand for all reasonable costs and
expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable fees of counsel) incurred by
the Agent or such Lender in connection with such rescission or restoration,
including any such costs and expenses incurred in defending against any claim
alleging that such payment constituted a preference, fraudulent transfer or
similar payment under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law.

     Section 18.6.    Remedies. The Guarantors agree that, as between the
Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Agent and the Lenders, on the other hand,
the Guaranteed Obligations may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as
provided in Section 12 hereof (and shall be deemed to have become automatically
due and payable in the circumstances provided in Section 12 hereof)
notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such
declaration (or preventing such Guaranteed Obligations from becoming
automatically due and payable) as against any other Person and that, in the
event of such declaration (or such Guaranteed Obligations being deemed to have
become automatically due and payable), such Guaranteed Obligations (whether or
not due and payable by any other Person) shall forthwith become due and payable
by the Guarantors.

     Section 18.7.    Limitation of Guaranty. Notwithstanding any provision to
the contrary contained herein or in any of the other Loan Documents, to the
extent the obligations of any Guarantor

                                      -64-
<Page>

shall be adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason (including,
without limitation, because of any applicable state or federal law relating to
fraudulent conveyances or transfers), then the obligations of such Guarantor
hereunder shall be limited to the maximum amount that is permissible under
applicable law (whether federal or state and including, without limitation, the
Bankruptcy Code).

     Section 18.8.    Release of Guaranty. Upon consummation of the sale,
conveyance, pledge or other transfer of all of the stock or other evidence of
beneficial or legal ownership, or a sale, mortgage or pledge of all or
substantially all of the assets, of any Guarantor other than the Company, so
long as the transfer of Collateral pledged by such Guarantor is otherwise
permitted under the terms of this Agreement, and so long as no Default or Event
of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Guaranty of such
Guarantor, and all of its obligations and liabilities under the Loan Documents,
shall be, and shall be deemed to be, released and discharged, and upon the
request of such released Guarantor, the Agent shall acknowledge such release in
writing.

     Section 19.      ASSIGNMENT; PARTICIPATIONS; ETC.

     Section 19.1.    Conditions to Assignment by Lenders. Except as provided
herein, each Lender may assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a
portion of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement (including
all or a portion of its Commitment Percentage and Commitment and the same
portion of the Loans at the time owing to it, and the Notes held by it);
provided that (a) the Agent shall have given its prior written consent to such
assignment, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, except
that such consent shall not be needed with respect to an assignment from a
Lender to either one of its Affiliated Lenders or to another Lender hereunder,
(b) each such assignment shall be of a portion (or which may be all) of the
assigning Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement relating to a
specified Commitment amount and Commitment Percentage, (c) each assignment shall
be in an amount of not less than $5,000,000 and in integral multiples of
$1,000,000, (d) each Lender either shall assign all of its Commitment and cease

of its Commitment of not less than $5,000,000, and (e) the parties to such
assignment shall execute and deliver to the Agent, for recording in the Register
(as hereinafter defined), an Assignment and Acceptance, substantially in the
form of Exhibit E hereto (an "Assignment and Acceptance"), together with any
Notes subject to such assignment. Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and
recording, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and
Acceptance, which effective date shall be at least five (5) Business Days after
the execution thereof, (i) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and,
to the extent provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and
obligations of a Lender hereunder, and (ii) the assigning Lender shall, to the
extent provided in such assignment and upon payment to the Agent of the
registration fee referred to in Section 19.3, be released from its obligations
under this Agreement.

     Section 19.2.    Certain Representations and Warranties; Limitations;
Covenants. By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the parties
to the assignment thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other
parties hereto as follows: (a) other than the representation and warranty that

                                      -65-
<Page>

thereby free and clear of any adverse claim, the assigning Lender makes no
representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any
statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this
Agreement or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness,
sufficiency or value of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any other
instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (b) the assigning Lender makes
no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the
financial condition of the Borrower or any other Person primarily or secondarily
liable in respect of any of the Obligations, or the performance or observance by
the Borrower or any other Person primarily or secondarily liable in respect of
any of the Obligations of any of their obligations under this Agreement or any
of the other Loan Documents or any other instrument or document furnished
pursuant hereto or thereto; (c) such assignee confirms that it has received a
copy of this Agreement, together with copies of the most recent financial
statements referred to in Section 6.4 and Section 7.4 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; (d) such assignee will,
independently and without reliance upon the assigning Lender, 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, (e) such assignee represents and
warrants that it is an Eligible Assignee; (f) such assignee 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 or thereof, together with such powers
as are reasonably incidental thereto; (g) such assignee agrees that it will
perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations that by the terms
of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender; and (h) such
assignee represents and warrants that it is legally authorized to enter into
such Assignment and Acceptance.

     Section 19.3     Register. The Agent shall maintain a copy of each
Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register or similar list (the
"Register") for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and
the Commitment Percentages of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to the
Lenders from time to time. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in
the absence of manifest error, and the Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders may
treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder
for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for
inspection by the Borrower and the Lenders at any reasonable time and from time
to time upon reasonable prior notice. From and after the Effective Date, upon
each such recordation, the assigning Lender agrees to pay to the Agent a
registration fee in the sum of $3,500.00. The Agent may, without action by any
other party, amend Schedules 1 and 1.2 hereof to reflect the recording of any
such assignments and shall immediately forward a copy of any such amendment to
Borrower.

     Section 19.4.    New Notes. Upon its receipt of an Assignment and
Acceptance executed by the parties to such assignment, together with each Note
subject to such assignment, the Agent shall (a) record the information contained
therein in the Register, and (b) give prompt notice thereof to the Borrower and
the Lenders (other than the assigning Lender). Within five (5) Business Days
after receipt of such notice, the Borrower, at its own expense, shall execute
and deliver to the Agent, in exchange for each surrendered Note, a new Note to
the order of such Eligible Assignee in an amount equal to the amount assumed by
such Eligible Assignee pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance and, if the
assigning Lender has retained some portion of its Loans

                                      -66-
<Page>

hereunder, a new Note to the order of the assigning Lender in an amount equal to
the amount retained by it hereunder. Such new Notes shall provide that they are
replacements for the surrendered Notes and that they do not constitute a
novation, shall be in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate
principal amount of the surrendered Notes, shall be dated the effective date of
such Assignment and Acceptance and shall otherwise be in substantially the form
of the assigned Notes. Within five (5) days of issuance of any new Notes
pursuant to this Section 19.4, the Borrower shall deliver an opinion of counsel,
addressed to the Lenders and the Agent, relating to the due authorization,
execution and delivery of such new Notes and the legality, validity and binding
effect thereof, and that the Obligations evidenced by the new Notes have the
same validity and enforceability as if given on the Effective Date, in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to the Lenders who are the holders of such new
Notes. The surrendered Notes shall be held by the Agent in escrow and shall be
deemed cancelled and returned to the Borrower simultaneously upon the issuance
and receipt by the Agent of, and in exchange for, the New Notes.

     Section 19.5.    Participations. Each Lender may sell participations to one
or more banks or other entities of all or a portion of such Lender's rights and
obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided that (a)
the Agent shall have given its prior written consent to such participation,
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, except that any
Lender may sell participations to its Affiliated Lenders without such consent,
(b) each such participation, other than participations to its Affiliated Lenders
or to another Lender hereunder, shall be in an amount of not less than
$5,000,000, (c) any such sale or participation shall not affect the rights and
duties of the selling Lender hereunder to the Borrower and the Lender shall
continue to exercise all approvals, disapprovals and other functions of a
Lender, (d) the only rights granted to the participant pursuant to such
participation arrangements with respect to waivers, amendments or modifications
of the Loan Documents shall be the rights to approve the vote of the Lender as
to waivers, amendments or modifications that would reduce the principal of or
the interest rate on any Loans, extend the term or increase the amount of the
Commitment of such Lender as it relates to such participant, reduce the amount
of any fees to which such participant is entitled or extend any regularly
scheduled payment date for principal or interest, (e) except in the case of
sales or participations consummated during the occurrence and continuance of a
Default or an Event of Default, such participant would have qualified as an
Eligible Assignee, and (f) no participant which is not a Lender hereunder shall
have the right to grant further participations or assign its rights, obligations
or interests under such participation to other Persons without the prior written
consent of the Agent. The Agent shall promptly advise the Borrower in writing of
any such sale or participation.

     Section 19.6.    Pledge by Lender. Any Lender may at any time pledge all or
any portion of its interest and rights under this Agreement (including all or
any portion of its Note) to any of the twelve Federal Reserve Banks organized
under Section 4 of the Federal Reserve Act, 12 U.S.C. Section 341. No such
pledge or the enforcement thereof shall release the pledgor Lender from its
obligations hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents.

     Section 19.7.    No Assignment by Borrower. Neither the Borrower nor any
Guarantor shall assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under any of
the Loan Documents without the prior written consent of each of the Lenders, and
any such attempted assignment shall be null and void.

                                      -67-

     Section 19.8.    Disclosure. Each of the Borrower and the Guarantors agrees
that in addition to disclosures made in accordance with standard banking
practices any Lender may disclose information obtained by such Lender pursuant
to this Agreement to assignees or participants and potential assignees or
participants hereunder subject to customary banking confidentiality practices.

AGREEMENT AND EACH OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE SPECIFICALLY
PROVIDED THEREIN, ARE CONTRACTS UNDER THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND

OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS MAY BE BROUGHT IN THE COURTS OF THE CITY OF NEW YORK, STATE
OF NEW YORK OR ANY FEDERAL COURT SITTING THEREIN AND BORROWER CONSENTS TO THE

UPON THE BORROWER BY MAIL AT THE ADDRESS SPECIFIED IN Section 20. EACH OF THE
BORROWER, THE GUARANTORS, THE AGENT AND THE LENDERS HEREBY WAIVE ANY OBJECTION

     Section 25.      WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL AND CERTAIN DAMAGE CLAIMS. EACH OF
THE BORROWER, THE GUARANTORS, THE AGENT AND THE LENDERS HEREBY WAIVES ITS RIGHT

ANY RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER OR THEREUNDER OR THE PERFORMANCE OF SUCH
RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS. EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT EXPRESSLY PROHIBITED BY LAW, EACH
OF THE BORROWER AND THE GUARANTORS HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO CLAIM
OR RECOVER IN ANY LITIGATION REFERRED TO IN THE PRECEDING SENTENCE ANY SPECIAL,

CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF THE AGENT OR ANY LENDER
HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT THE AGENT OR SUCH LENDER WOULD
NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVERS AND (B)
ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE AGENT AND THE

                                      -69-
<Page>

LENDERS HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN
DOCUMENTS TO WHICH THEY ARE PARTIES BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE WAIVERS AND
CERTIFICATIONS CONTAINED HEREIN.

     Section 26.      CONSENTS, AMENDMENTS, WAIVERS, ETC. Except as otherwise
specifically set forth herein or in any other Loan Document, any consent or
approval required or permitted by this Agreement may be given, and any term of
this Agreement or of any other instrument related hereto or mentioned herein may
be amended, and the performance or observance by the Borrower and the Guarantors
of any terms of this Agreement or such other instrument or the continuance of
any Default or Event of Default may be waived (either generally or in a
particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively) with, but only
with, the written consent of the Requisite Lenders, and, in the case of
amendments, with the written consent of the Borrower other than amendments to
schedules made in the ordinary course as contemplated by this Agreement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the rate of interest on, and the term or
amount of, the Notes or the date of any payment due hereunder or thereunder,
(ii) the amount of the Commitments of the Lenders (other than changes in
Commitments pursuant to Assignments under Section 19 or pursuant to changes in
the Total Commitment under Section 2.2), (iii) the amount of any fee payable to
a Lender hereunder, (iv) any provision herein or in any of the Loan Documents
which expressly requires consent of all the Lenders (including this Section 26),
(v) the funding provisions of Section 2.5 and Section 2.7 hereof, (vi) the
rights, duties and obligations of the Agent specified in Section 14 hereof, and
(vii) the definitions of Majority Lenders or Requisite Lenders, may not be
amended or compliance therewith waived without the written consent of each
Lender affected thereby, nor may the Agent release the Borrower or any Guarantor
from its liability with respect to the Obligations (other than pursuant to
Section 18.8), without first obtaining the written consent of all the Lenders.
Unless otherwise directed by the Agent, any request for amendment or waiver
shall be made on no less than ten (10) Business Days notice to the Lenders.
Unless otherwise directed by the Agent, the failure of a Lender to respond to a
request for waiver or amendment shall be deemed to constitute such Lender's
consent to such waiver or amendment requested (unless such waiver or amendment
requires the consent of all Lenders). No waiver shall extend to or affect any
obligation not expressly waived or impair any right consequent thereon. No
course of dealing or delay or omission on the part of the Agent or any Lender in
exercising any right shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise be
prejudicial thereto. No notice to or demand upon the Borrower shall entitle the
Borrower to other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

     Section 27.      SEVERABILITY. The provisions of this Agreement are
severable, and if any one clause or provision hereof shall be held invalid or
unenforceable in whole or in part in any jurisdiction, then such invalidity or
unenforceability shall affect only such clause or provision, or part thereof, in
such jurisdiction, and shall not in any manner affect such clause or provision
in any other jurisdiction, or any other clause or provision of this Agreement in
any jurisdiction.

     Section 28.      ACKNOWLEDGMENTS. Each of the Borrower and the Guarantors
hereby acknowledges that: (i) neither the Agent nor any Lender has any fiduciary
relationship with, or fiduciary duty to, the Borrower and the Guarantors arising
out of or in connection with this

                                      -70-
<Page>

Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents; (ii) the relationship in
connection herewith between the Agent and the Lenders, on the one hand, and the
Borrower and each Guarantor, on the other hand, is solely that of creditor and
debtor and (iii) no joint venture or partnership among any of the parties hereto
is created hereby or by the other Loan Documents, or otherwise exists by virtue
of the Facility or the Loans.

     Section 29.      USURY LIMITATION. If, at any time, the rate of interest,
together with all amounts which constitute interest and which are reserved,
charged or taken by the Agent or the Lenders as compensation for fees, services
or expenses incidental to the making, negotiating or collection of the loan
evidenced hereby, shall be deemed by any competent court of law, governmental
agency or tribunal to exceed the maximum rate of interest permitted to be
charged by the Agent or the Lenders to the Borrower under Applicable Law, then,
during such time as such rate of interest would be deemed excessive, that
portion of each sum paid attributable to that portion of such interest rate that
exceeds the maximum rate of interest so permitted shall be deemed a voluntary
prepayment of principal; provided, however, that in the event there is a change
in Applicable Law which results in a higher permissible rate of interest, then
this Agreement shall be governed by such new law as of its effective date.

     Section 30.      REPLACEMENT OF LOST NOTES. Upon receipt of an affidavit of
an officer of a Lender as to the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of a
Note or any other security document which is not of public record, and, in the
case of any such loss, theft, destruction or mutilation, upon cancellation of
such Note or other security document, the Borrower will issue, in lieu thereof,
a replacement note or other security document in the same principal amount
thereof and otherwise of like tenor.
