Debt, the issuance of the Permitted Senior Unsecured Debt, occurred on the first
day of such period and (iii) Operating Cash Flow for any period shall be
calculated, if such accounting period includes the Fiscal Quarter ending on
December 31, 2001, by adding up to $3,102,000 in costs (to the extent incurred)
associated with achieving certain cost savings under the Borrower's 2002 expense
reduction program (and such amount shall be
13
deemed to be included as a "Total Cost Savings Add-Back" for purposes of the
last sentence of clause (i) of Section 2.09(b) of each of the Credit
Agreements.)
(b) For the avoidance of doubt, in any instance after or in connection
with the issuance of the Permitted Senior Unsecured Debt in which the Borrower
is required to certify actual or projected compliance with the financial
covenants set forth in Sections 5.01(l) through (o) of each of the Credit
Agreements (including delivery of a compliance certificate in the form of
Exhibit J to each of the Credit Agreements), such certification or projection
shall be as to such covenants as and to the extent amended by the new Section
5.01(p) set forth in this Amendment No. 4, and shall include the new Senior
Secured Debt to Operating Cash Flow Ratio covenant set forth in clause (iv) of
such Section 5.01(p).
(c) In the event and as of the date the Borrower issues the Permitted
Senior Unsecured Debt, each reference in each of the Credit Agreements to "Total
Interest Expense" shall be deemed to be a reference to "Total Cash Interest
Expense".
ARTICLE III
MISCELLANEOUS
SECTION 3.01. Representations Correct: No Default. The Borrower
-----------------------------------
represents and warrants that on and as of the date hereof: (i) the
representations and warranties contained in each of the Credit Agreements and

(or would constitute) a Default.
SECTION 3.02. Effectiveness. (a) This Amendment No. 4 shall become
-------------
effective upon the date (the "Effective Date") when the Administrative Agent
receives duly executed counterparts hereof signed by the Borrower, each
Guarantor and the Majority Lenders (or, in the case of any party as to which an
executed counterpart thereof shall not have been received, receipt by the
Administrative Agent in form satisfactory to it of telegraphic, telex or other
written confirmation from such party of execution of a counterpart hereof by
such party). The calculation of any commitment fees and accrued interest and
letter of credit fees on Advances, Letters of Credit and unpaid reimbursement
obligations outstanding on the Effective Date shall reflect as of the Effective
Date the changes in the Pricing Schedules made hereby.
(b) (i) If the Effective Date occurs, the Borrower shall pay the
Administrative Agent, in immediately available funds, for the account of each
Lender (a "Consenting Lender") that has evidenced its agreement hereto as

(i) November 21, 2001 and (ii) the Domestic
14
Business Day on which the Administrative Agent issues a notice to the Lenders
under each Credit Agreement saying this Amendment No. 4 has become effective
(such later date being the "Fee Determination Date"), an amendment fee in an
amount equal to 0.50% of the sum of (1) the Revolving Credit Commitment of such
Consenting Lender (determined as of the opening of business on the Effective
Date), and (2) the outstanding principal amount of such Consenting Lender's Term
Loan A Advances and Term Loan B Advances (determined as of the opening of
business on the Effective Date), such amendment fees being due on the first
Domestic Business Day after the Fee Determination Date.
(ii) If the Effective Date occurs but the Borrower has not
issued the Permitted Senior Unsecured Debt on or prior to March 31, 2002, the
Borrower shall pay the Administrative Agent, in immediately available funds, for
the account of each Lender, a supplemental amendment fee in an amount equal to
0.125% of the sum of (1) the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender
(determined as of the opening of business on March 31, 2002), and (2) the
outstanding principal amount of such Lender's Term Loan A Advances and Term Loan
B Advances (determined as of the opening of business on March 31, 2002), such
amendment fees being due on the first Domestic Business Day after March 31,
2002.
(iii) If the Effective Date occurs but the Borrower has not
issued the Permitted Senior Unsecured Debt on or prior to June 30, 2002, the
Borrower shall pay the Administrative Agent, in immediately available funds, for
the account of each Lender, a supplemental amendment fee (in addition to the
supplemental amendment fees paid pursuant to Section 3.02(b)(ii)) in an amount
equal to 0.375% of the sum of (1) the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender
(determined as of the opening of business on June 30, 2002), and (2) the
outstanding principal amount of such Lender's Term Loan A Advances and Term Loan
B Advances (as of the opening of business on June 30, 2002), such amendment fees
being due on the first Domestic Business Day after June 30, 2002.

-------------
BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

force and effect and are hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects.
SECTION 3.05. Execution in Counterparts. This Amendment No. 4 may be
-------------------------
executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in
separate
15
counterparts, each of which when so executed being deemed an original
and all of which taken together constituting one and the same agreement.
