SECTION 6. TERM LOAN AND REVOLVING LOAN BORROWINGS. (a) On the

Agreement shall make, and the Company shall borrow, (i) Term Loans in the
amount of the Term Loan Commitment of each such Lender as set forth on

Company shall use the proceeds of the Loans made pursuant to paragraph (a) above
to repay all the Term A Loans, the Term B Loans and the Revolving Loans
outstanding on the Effectiveness Date immediately prior to the effectiveness of
the Restated Credit Agreement (the "OUTSTANDING LOANS") and the Company hereby
directs the Administrative Agent to take such action as is necessary to achieve
such a result. Concurrently with such repayment of the Outstanding Loans, the
Departing Lenders shall cease to be parties to the Credit Agreement and shall be
released from all further obligations thereunder and shall have no further
rights to or interest in any of the Collateral; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the
Departing Lenders shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of all yield
protection, expense reimbursement and indemnity provisions contained in the
Credit Agreement as in effect immediately prior to the Closing.
(c) On the Effectiveness Date, upon the effectiveness of the Restated
Credit Agreement (i) each Additional Lender and each Continuing Lender that is
making Loans pursuant to paragraph (a) above shall pay by wire transfer of
immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent not later than
12:00 Noon (New York time) an amount equal to the amount of the Loans being made
by such Lender pursuant to paragraph (a) and (ii) the Administrative Agent shall
pay to each Departing Lender and to each Continuing Lender, out of the amounts
received pursuant to clause (i), the amount of such Lender's Outstanding Loans
by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account designated by
such Lender to the Administrative Agent not later than 5:00 p.m. (New York
time). The Company agrees that if any Lender shall default in the payment of
any amount due from it under this Section 6, the Company shall promptly pay the
defaulted amount to the Administrative Agent by wire transfer of immediately

Effectiveness Date to the date of payment. Upon any such payment by the
Company, the Company shall have the right, at the defaulting Lender's expense,
upon notice to the defaulting Lender and to the Administrative Agent, to require
such defaulting Lender to transfer and assign without recourse (in accordance
with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 12.3 of the Restated
Credit Agreement) all its interests, rights and obligations under the Restated
Credit Agreement to another financial institution which shall assume such
interests, rights and obligations; PROVIDED that (A) no such assignment shall
conflict with any law, rule or regulation or order of any Governmental Authority
and (B) the assignee shall pay to the defaulting Lender, in immediately
available funds on the date of such assignment, the outstanding principal of and
interest accrued to the date of payment on the Loans made or deemed made by such
defaulting Lender under the Restated Credit Agreement, if any, and all other
amounts accrued for such defaulting Lender's account or owed to it under the
Restated Credit Agreement.
(d) In the event the Company shall specify a date as the
Effectiveness Date and the Effectiveness Date shall not occur on such date, the
Company shall indemnify each Lender for any loss or expense incurred by such
Lender as a result of the failure to consummate the transactions to have been
3

determined as set forth in Section 3.4 of the Restated Credit Agreement in
