to any transfer hereof, appropriate notations to evidence the foregoing
information with respect to each such loan then outstanding shall be endorsed by
the Lender on the schedule attached hereto or on a continuation of such schedule
attached to and made a part hereof; provided, however, that the failure of the
Lender to make any such recordation or endorsement shall not affect the
obligations of the Borrower under this Note, such Second Amended and Restated
Credit Agreement or any other Credit Document.
This Note evidences borrowings under, and is entitled to the benefits
of, and is subject to the provisions of, the Second Amended and Restated Credit
Agreement dated as of December 31, 2002, as from time to time in effect (the

to time in part, all as set forth in the Second Amended and Restated Credit
Agreement. Terms defined in the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement are
used herein with the meanings so defined.
In case an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the entire
principal of this Note may become or be declared due and payable in the manner
and with the effect provided in the Credit Agreement.
This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law
(other than the conflict of laws rules) of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
The Borrower hereby waives presentment, demand, notice, protest and all
other demands and notices in connection with the delivery, acceptance,
performance and enforcement of this Note, except as specifically otherwise
provided in the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, and assents to
extensions of time of payment, forbearance or other indulgence without notice.
This Note amends and restates in its entirety the Amended and Restated
Revolving Note, dated March 29, 2002 (the "Prior Revolving Note"), made by the
Borrower to the order of the Lender. The Loan evidenced by the Prior Revolving
Note will remain outstanding as of the date hereof and will constitute a
continuing Credit Obligation hereunder and shall continue to be secured by the
Credit Security. The execution and delivery of this Second Amended and Restated
Revolving Note shall not be deemed to
evidence or result in a novation or repayment and re-borrowing of the Loan
evidenced by the Prior Revolving Note.
