(c)      Expiration Date.  Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the earlier
of (i) the date one year after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal
or extension thereof, one year after such renewal or extension) (provided that any Letter of Credit with a
one-year term may provide for the renewal thereof for additional one-year periods not to extend past the date in
clause (ii) below) and (ii) the date that is five Business Days prior to the Maturity Date.

(d)      Participations.  By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing
the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the Issuing Bank or the Revolving Lenders, the
Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Revolving Lender, and each Revolving Lender hereby acquires from the Issuing
Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Revolving Lender's Applicable Percentage of the
aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit.  In consideration and in furtherance of the
foregoing, each Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Agent, for the
account of the Issuing Bank, such Revolving Lender's Applicable Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by the
Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the Borrower on the date due as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section, or
of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason.  Each Revolving Lender
acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of
Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever,
including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a
Default or reduction or termination of the Revolving Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made
without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

(e)      Reimbursement.  If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the
Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Agent an amount equal to such LC Disbursement not
later than 12:00 noon, Dallas, Texas time, on the date that such LC Disbursement is made, if the Borrower shall
have received notice of such LC Disbursement prior to 10:00 a.m., Dallas, Texas time, on such date, or, if such
notice has not been received by the Borrower prior to such time on such date, then not later than 12:00 noon,
Dallas, Texas time, on (i) the Business Day that the Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is received
prior to 10:00 a.m., Dallas, Texas time, on the day of receipt, or (ii) the Business Day immediately following
the day that the Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is not received prior to such time on the day of
receipt; provided that the Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in
accordance with Section 2.03 or 2.04 that such payment be financed with an ABR Borrowing or Swingline Loan in an
equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Borrower's obligation to make such payment shall be
discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Borrowing or Swingline Loan.  If the Borrower fails to make such
payment when due, the Agent shall notify each Revolving Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment
then due from the Borrower in respect thereof and such Revolving Lender's Applicable Percentage thereof.
Promptly following receipt of such notice, each Revolving Lender shall pay to the Agent its Applicable Percentage
of the payment then due from the Borrower, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.06 with respect to Loans
made by such Revolving Lender (and Section 2.06 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the
Revolving Lenders), and the Agent shall promptly pay to the Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the
Revolving Lenders.  Promptly following receipt by the Agent of any payment from the Borrower pursuant to this
paragraph, the Agent shall distribute such payment to the Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Revolving Lenders
have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Bank, then to such Revolving Lenders and
the Issuing Bank as their interests may appear.  Any payment made by a Revolving Lender pursuant to this
paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Bank for any LC Disbursement (other than the funding of ABR Revolving Loans or
a Swingline Loan as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Borrower of its
obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement.

(f)      Obligations Absolute.  The Borrower's obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in
paragraph (e) of this Section shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of
(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision
therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or
invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the
Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with
the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to
any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable
discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrower's obligations hereunder.  The Agent, the
Lenders, the Issuing Bank, or any of their Related Parties, shall not have any liability or responsibility by
reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to
make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or
any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other
communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing
thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the
control of the Issuing Bank.  The foregoing provisions of this clause (f) shall not be construed to excuse the
Issuing Bank from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential
damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law)
suffered by the Borrower that are caused by the Issuing Bank's failure to exercise care when determining whether
drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof.  The parties hereto
expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Issuing Bank
(as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), the Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised
care in each such determination.  In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof,
the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial
compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and
make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or
information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not
in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.

(g)      Disbursement Procedures.  The Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all
documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit.  The Issuing Bank shall promptly
notify the Agent and the Borrower by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of such demand for payment and whether the
Issuing Bank has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in
giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse the Issuing Bank and the Lenders
with respect to any such LC Disbursement.

(h)      Interim Interest.  If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Borrower shall
reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall
bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date
that the Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Loans; provided
that, if the Borrower fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section,
then Section 2.12(d) shall apply.  Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the
Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Revolving Lender pursuant to
paragraph (e) of this Section to reimburse the Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Revolving Lender to
the extent of such payment.

(i)      Replacement of the Issuing Bank.  The Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement
among the Borrower, the Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank.  The Agent shall notify
the Lenders of any such replacement of the Issuing Bank.  At the time any such replacement shall become
effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant
to Section 2.11(b).  From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Bank
shall have all the rights and obligations of the Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of
Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term "Issuing Bank" shall be deemed to refer to
such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the
context shall require.  After the replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall
remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this
Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to
issue additional Letters of Credit.

(j)      Cash Collateralization.  If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that
the Borrower receives notice from the Agent or the Required Lenders demanding the deposit of cash collateral
pursuant to this paragraph, the Borrower shall deposit in an account with the Agent, in the name of the Agent and
for the benefit of the Lenders, an amount in cash equal to the LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and
unpaid interest thereon; provided that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective
immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any
kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the Borrower described in clause (h) or (i) of
Article VIII.  Each such deposit shall be held by the Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the
obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement.  The Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including
the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account.  Other than any interest earned on the investment of such
deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Agent and at the Borrower's
risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest.  Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall
accumulate in such account.  Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Agent to reimburse the Issuing Bank
for LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for
the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrower for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the
maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Required Lenders) be applied to satisfy
other obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement.  If the Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash
collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied
as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been
cured or waived.

SECTION 2.06.     Funding of Borrowings.

(a)      Each Revolving Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by
wire transfer of immediately available funds by 12:00 noon, Dallas, Texas time, to the account of the Agent most
recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Revolving Lenders; provided that Swingline Loans
shall be made as provided in Section 2.04.  The Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrower by promptly
crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of the Borrower maintained with the Agent or by
wire transfer, automated clearing house debit or interbank transfer to such other account, accounts or Persons
designated by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request; provided that ABR Revolving Loans made to finance
the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.05(e) shall be remitted by the Agent to the
Issuing Bank.

(b)      Unless the Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing
that such Lender will not make available to the Agent such Lender's share of such Borrowing, the Agent may assume
that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and
may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount.  In such event, if
a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Agent, then the applicable
Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with
interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but
excluding the date of payment to the Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds
Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank
compensation or (ii) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans.  If such Lender pays
such amount to the Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender's Loan included in such Borrowing.

SECTION 2.07.     Interest Elections.

(a)      Each Revolving  Borrowing  initially  shall be of the Type specified in the applicable  Borrowing  Request
and, in the case of a Eurodollar  Borrowing,  shall have an initial  Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing
Request.  Thereafter,  the  Borrower may elect to convert such  Borrowing to a different  Type or to continue  such
Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurodollar  Borrowing,  may elect  Interest  Periods  therefor,  all as provided in
this  Section.  The  Borrower  may elect  different  options  with  respect to  different  portions of the affected
Borrowing,  in which  case each such  portion  shall be  allocated  ratably  among the  Lenders  holding  the Loans
comprising such  Borrowing,  and the Loans  comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate  Borrowing.
This Section shall not apply to Swingline Borrowings, which may not be converted or continued.

(b)      To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Borrower shall notify the Agent of such election by
telephone by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if the Borrower were
requesting a Revolving Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of
such election.  Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed
promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Agent of a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by
the Agent and signed by the Borrower.

(c)      Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in
compliance with Section 2.02 and paragraph (f) of this Section:

(i)      the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being
elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting
Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be
specified for each resulting Borrowing);

(ii)     the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a
Business Day;

(iii)    whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing; and

(iv)     if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after
giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term "Interest
Period".

         If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing but does not specify an Interest
Period, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month's duration.

(d)      Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Agent shall advise each Lender of the
details thereof and of such Lender's portion of each resulting Borrowing.

(e)      If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurodollar
Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as
provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing.
Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the
Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Borrower, then, so long as an Event of Default is
continuing (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing and
(ii) unless repaid, each Eurodollar Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest
Period applicable thereto.

(f)      A Revolving Borrowing may not be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing if after giving
effect thereto the Interest Period therefor would commence before and end after a date on which any principal of
the Loans is scheduled to be repaid.

SECTION 2.08.     Termination and Reduction of Revolving Commitments; Extension of Maturity Date.

(a)      Unless previously terminated, the Revolving Commitments shall terminate on the Maturity Date.

(b)      By written notice sent to the Agent (which the Agent shall promptly distribute to the Lenders), the
Borrower may request that the then effective Maturity Date (the "Current Maturity Date") be extended to a date
one year from the then Current Maturity Date (an "Extension Request").  An Extension Request may be delivered by
the Borrower to the Agent at any time prior to the date which is 90 days prior to the then Current Maturity Date
when no Default exists.  Within 45 days of the receipt by the Agent of an Extension Request, each Lender shall
provide the Agent and the Borrower with a written consent to, or a rejection of, the Borrower's Extension
Request.  The decision whether to accept or reject an Extension Request shall be made by each Lender in its sole
discretion based on such information as it may deem necessary and no Lender shall have any obligation to agree to
any extension of the then Current Maturity Date.  The failure of a Lender to respond to any Extension Request
within such 45-day period shall be deemed a rejection of such request.  If all the Lenders consent to an
Extension Request, the Maturity Date shall be the date one year from the then Current Maturity Date as specified
in a notice from the Agent.  If Lenders holding 25% or less of the Revolving Exposures and unused Revolving
Commitments reject an Extension Request (the "Rejecting Lenders"), then the Borrower may take one of the
following actions:  (i) by written notice to each Rejecting Lender and the Agent, delivered prior to the then
Current Maturity Date, terminate the Revolving Commitment of each Rejecting Lender if simultaneously with such
termination the Borrower pays to each Rejecting Lender all amounts owed by the Borrower to such Rejecting Lender
hereunder or (ii) cause each Rejecting Lender to assign its interest in the Agreement to a new Lender who will
consent to the Extension Request under the terms of Section 2.18(b) on or before the then Current Maturity Date.
If the Borrower consummates either of the foregoing actions on or before the then Current Maturity Date, then the
Maturity Date shall be the date one year from the then Current Maturity Date as specified in a notice from the
Agent.

(c)      The Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Revolving Commitments; provided
that (i) each reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of
$1,000,000 and not less than $10,000,000 and (ii) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Revolving
Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.10,
the sum of the Revolving Exposures would exceed the total Revolving Commitments.

(d)      The Borrower shall notify the Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Revolving Commitments
under paragraph (b) of this Section at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination
or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof.  Promptly following receipt of any notice,
the Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof.  Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to
this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Revolving Commitments delivered
by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in
which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Agent on or prior to the specified
effective date) if such condition is not satisfied.  Any termination or reduction of the Revolving Commitments
shall be permanent.  Each reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be made ratably among the Lenders in
accordance with their respective Revolving Commitments.

(e)      The aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitments are also required to be reduced as described in
Section 4.02 of the Intercreditor Agreement.

SECTION 2.09.     Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt.

(a)      The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay (i) to the Agent for the account of each Lender the
then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan of such Lender on the Maturity Date, and (ii) to the
Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan on the earlier of the Maturity Date and
the first date after such Swingline Loan is made that is the 15th or last day of a calendar month and is at least
two Business Days after such Swingline Loan is made; provided that on each date that a Revolving Borrowing is
made, the Borrower shall repay all Swingline Loans then outstanding.

(b)      Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the
indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts
of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.

(c)      The Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder,
the Class and Type thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or
interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the
amount of any sum received by the Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender's share thereof.

(d)      The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section shall be
prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure
of any Lender or the Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the
obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(e)      Any Lender may request that Loans of any Class made by it be evidenced by a promissory note.  In such
event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to the order of
such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and in a form approved
by the Agent.  Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times
(including after assignment pursuant to Section 9.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form
payable to the order of the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee
and its registered assigns).

SECTION 2.10.     Prepayment of Loans.
(a)      The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or
in part without premium or penalty except for amounts paid in accordance with Section 2.15, subject to the
requirements of this Section.

(b)      In the event and on such occasion that the sum of the Revolving Exposures exceeds the total Revolving
Commitments (including after any mandatory reduction of the Revolving Commitments pursuant to Section 4.02 of the
Intercreditor Agreement), the Borrower shall prepay Revolving Borrowings or Swingline Borrowings (or, if no such
Borrowings are outstanding, deposit cash collateral in an account with the Agent pursuant to Section 2.05(j)) in
an aggregate amount equal to such excess.  The Borrower shall also be required to prepay the Revolving Borrowings
under the terms of Section 4.02 of the Intercreditor Agreement and Section 5.14 hereof.

(c)      Prior to any optional or mandatory prepayment of Borrowings hereunder, the Borrower shall select the
Borrowing or Borrowings to be prepaid and shall specify such selection in the notice of such prepayment pursuant
to paragraph (d) of this Section.

(d)      The Borrower shall notify the Agent (and, in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, the Swingline
Lender) by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a
Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., Dallas, Texas time, three Business Days before the date of
prepayment, (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., Dallas, Texas time, on
the date of prepayment or (iii) in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, not later than 12:00 noon, Dallas,
Texas time, on the date of prepayment.  Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment
date, the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid and, in the case of a mandatory
prepayment, a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such prepayment; provided that, if a notice of
optional prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Revolving Commitments
as contemplated by Section 2.08, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is
revoked in accordance with Section 2.08.  Promptly following receipt of any such notice (other than a notice
relating solely to Swingline Loans), the Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof.  Each partial
prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a
Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02, except as necessary to apply fully the required amount of
a mandatory prepayment.  Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the
prepaid Borrowing.  Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.12.

SECTION 2.11.     Fees.

(a)      The Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent for the account of each Lender a commitment fee, which shall
accrue at the Applicable Rate on the average daily unused amount of the Revolving Commitment of such Lender
during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the date on which such Revolving
Commitment terminates.  Accrued commitment fees shall be payable in arrears on the last day of March, June,
September and December of each year and on the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate, commencing on
the first such date to occur after the date hereof.  All commitment fees shall be computed on the basis of a year
of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the
last day).  For purposes of computing commitment fees, the Revolving Commitment of a Lender shall be deemed to be
used to the extent of the outstanding Revolving Loans and LC Exposure of such Lender (and the Swingline Exposure
of such Lender shall be disregarded for such purpose).

(b)      The Borrower agrees to pay (i) to the Agent for the account of each Lender a participation fee with
respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at the same Applicable Rate as interest on
Eurodollar Borrowings on the average daily amount of such Lender's LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof
attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but
excluding the later of the date on which such Lender's Revolving Commitment terminates and the date on which such
Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure, and (ii) to the Issuing Bank, for its own account, a fronting fee, which
shall accrue at the rate of 1/8 % per annum on the average daily amount of the LC Exposure (excluding any portion
thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Effective Date to
but excluding the later of the date of termination of the Revolving Commitments and the date on which there
ceases to be any LC Exposure, as well as the Issuing Bank's standard fees with respect to the issuance,
amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder.  Participation fees
and fronting fees accrued through and including the last day of March, June, September and December of each year
shall be payable on the third Business Day following such last day, commencing on the first such date to occur
after the Effective Date; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on which the Revolving
Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate
shall be payable on demand.  Any other fees payable to the Issuing Bank pursuant to this paragraph shall be
payable within 10 days after demand.  All participation fees and fronting fees shall be computed on the basis of
a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but
excluding the last day).

(c)      All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Agent
(or to the Issuing Bank, in the case of fees payable to it) for distribution, in the case of commitment fees and
participation fees, to the Lenders entitled thereto.  Except in the case of errors in payment which have been
confirmed by Agent, fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances.

SECTION 2.12.     Interest.

(a)      The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the
Applicable Rate.

(b)      The Loans comprising each Eurodollar Borrowing shall bear interest at the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the
Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate.

(c)      The Swingline Loans shall bear interest at the Federal Funds Effective Rate in effect from day to day
plus 2.00%.

(d)      Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount
payable by the Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or
otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal
to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as
provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2% plus the rate
applicable to ABR Borrowings as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section.

(e)      Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan
and upon termination of the Revolving Commitments; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (d)
of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other
than a prepayment of an ABR Loan prior to the end of the Revolving Availability Period), accrued interest on the
principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the
event of any conversion of any Eurodollar Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued
interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.

(f)      All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest
computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate
shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be
payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).  The
applicable Alternate Base Rate or Adjusted LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Agent, and such determination
shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  The Agent shall, at the request of the Borrower, deliver to the
Borrower a statement showing the quotations used by the Agent in determining any interest rates pursuant to this
Section 2.12.

SECTION 2.13.     Alternate Rate of Interest.  If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a
Eurodollar Borrowing:

(a)      the Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that through no
fault of the Agent adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such
Interest Period; or

(b)      the Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period will
not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders (as certified by such Required Lenders in a written
certificate delivered to Agent and Borrower setting forth in detail the reasons for such Required Lenders'
position) of making or maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period;

then the Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders by telephone or telecopy as promptly as
practicable thereafter and, until the Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving
rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any
Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be ineffective and (ii) if any
Borrowing Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing.

SECTION 2.14.     Increased Costs.

(a)      If any Change in Law shall:

(i)      impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of,
deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement
reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate) or the Issuing Bank; or

(ii)     impose on any Lender or the Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other condition affecting
this Agreement or Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any
Eurodollar Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender
or the Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount of
any sum received or receivable by such Lender or the Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or
otherwise), then the Borrower will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional
amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such additional
costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b)      If any Lender or the Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law regarding capital requirements has
or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender's or the Issuing Bank's capital or on the
capital of such Lender's or the Issuing Bank's holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the
Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by
the Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender's or the Issuing
Bank's holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender's or
the Issuing Bank's policies and the policies of such Lender's or the Issuing Bank's holding company with respect
to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the
case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such
Lender's or the Issuing Bank's holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c)      A certificate of a Lender or the Issuing Bank setting forth (i) the amount or amounts (including a
description of the method of calculating such amount or amounts), necessary to compensate such Lender or the
Issuing Bank or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section and
(ii) the applicable Change in Law and other facts that give rise to such amount or amounts shall be delivered to
the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  The Borrower shall pay such Lender or the Issuing
Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

(d)      Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this
Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender's or the Issuing Bank's right to demand such compensation;
provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or the Issuing Bank pursuant to this
Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or
the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased
costs or reductions and of such Lender's or the Issuing Bank's intention to claim compensation therefor; provided
further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the
180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

SECTION 2.15.     Break Funding Payments.  In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurodollar
Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of
Default or as a result of the operation of Section 2.18), (b) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan other than on
the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay
any Revolving Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such
notice may be revoked under Section 2.10(d) and is revoked in accordance therewith), or (d) the assignment of any
Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by
the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.08 or Section 2.18, then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate
each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event.  In the case of a Eurodollar Loan, such
loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the
excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had
such event not occurred, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period
from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a
failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan),
over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate
which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a
comparable amount and period from other banks in the eurodollar market.  A certificate of any Lender setting
forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered
to the Borrower, shall set forth the method of calculating such amount or amounts and shall be conclusive absent
manifest error.  The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within
10 days after receipt thereof.

SECTION 2.16.     Taxes.

(a)      Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder or under any other
Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes;
provided that if the Borrower shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such
payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions
(including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) each recipient of each such
payment receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the
Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant
Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b)      In addition, the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance
with applicable law.

(c)      The Borrower shall indemnify the Agent, each Lender, the Issuing Bank, and any other party hereto within
10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the
Agent, such Lender, the Issuing Bank or other party hereto, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment
by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including
Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section)
and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not
such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental
Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender or
the Issuing Bank, or by the Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or the Issuing Bank, shall set forth
in reasonable detail the origin and amount of the payments to be due under this Section 2.16(c) and such
certificate shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d)      As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrower to a
Governmental Authority, the Borrower shall deliver to the Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt
issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or
other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Agent.

(e)      If a Lender, the Issuing Bank or Agent shall become aware that it is entitled to claim a refund from a
Governmental Authority specifically in respect of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been
indemnified by a Borrower, or with respect to which a Borrower has paid additional amounts, pursuant to this
Section 2.16, it shall promptly notify Borrower of the availability of such refund claim and shall, within
30 days after receipt of a request by Borrower, make a claim to such Governmental Authority for such refund at
Borrower's expense.  If a Lender, the Issuing Bank or any Agent receives a refund (including pursuant to a claim
for refund made pursuant to the preceding sentence) specifically in respect of any Indemnified Taxes or Other
Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by Borrower or with respect to which Borrower had paid additional
amounts pursuant to this Section 2.16, it shall within 30 days from the date of such receipt pay over such refund
to Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by Borrower under
this Section 2.16 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all
out-of-pocket expenses of such Lender, Issuing Bank or Agent and without interest (other than interest paid by
the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided, however, that Borrower, upon the
request of such Lender, Issuing Bank or Agent, agrees to repay the amount paid over to Borrower (plus penalties,
interest or other charges) to such Lender, Issuing Bank or Agent in the event such Lender, Issuing Bank or Agent
is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.

(f)      Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law
of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with
respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Agent), at the time or
times prescribed by applicable law, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable
law or reasonably requested by the Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a
reduced rate.

SECTION 2.17.     Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-Offs.

(a)      The Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder or under any other Loan
Document (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under
Section 2.14, 2.15 or 2.16, or otherwise) prior to the time expressly required hereunder or under such other Loan
Document for such payment (or, if no such time is expressly required, prior to 12:00 noon, Dallas, Texas time),
on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim.  Any amounts received
after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next
succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon.  All such payments shall be made to the
Agent at its offices in New York, New York, except payments to be made directly to the Issuing Bank or Swingline
Lender as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 10.03 and
the other clauses of this Section 2.17 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto and payments
pursuant to other Loan Documents shall be made to the Persons specified therein.  The Agent shall distribute any
such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following
receipt thereof.  If any payment under any Loan Document shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the
date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing
interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension.  All payments under each Loan
Document shall be made in dollars.

(b)      If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Agent to pay fully all amounts of
principal, unreimbursed LC Disbursements, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied
(i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in
accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of
principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in
accordance with the amounts of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due to such parties.

(c)      If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in
respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Revolving Loans or participations in LC Disbursements or
Swingline Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its
Revolving Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans and accrued interest thereon than the
proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for
cash at face value) participations in the Revolving Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline
Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the
Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective
Revolving Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans; provided that (i) if any such
participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such
participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without
interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the
Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a
Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in
LC Disbursements to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate
thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply).  The Borrower consents to the foregoing and
agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation
pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with
respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of
such participation.

(d)      Unless the Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is
due to the Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Bank hereunder that the Borrower will not make
such payment, the Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith
and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the
amount due.  In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the
Issuing Bank, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Agent forthwith on demand the amount so
distributed to such Lender or Issuing Bank with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such
amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Agent, at the greater of the Federal
Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank
compensation.

(e)      If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.04(c),
2.05(d) or (e), 2.06(b), 2.17(d) or 10.03(c), then the Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary
provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy
such Lender's obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.

(f)      All proceeds received by the Agent from the sale or other liquidation of the Collateral when an Event of
Default exists shall first be applied as payment of the accrued and unpaid fees of the Agent hereunder and then
to all other unpaid or unreimbursed obligations (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) owing to the
Agent in its capacity as Agent only and then any remaining amount of such proceeds shall be distributed:

(i)      first, to an account at the Agent over which the Agent shall have control in an amount sufficient to
fully collateralize all LC Exposure then outstanding; and

(ii)     second, to the Lenders, pro rata in accordance with the such Lender's Revolving Exposure, until all the
Revolving Loans have been paid and satisfied in full or cash collateralized.

All amounts paid under the terms of the Subsidiary Guaranty shall be applied as provided in paragraph 5 of the
Guaranty.

(g)      After all Revolving Commitments are terminated and all other obligations of any Lender to Borrower or
any Guarantor are otherwise satisfied, any proceeds of Collateral shall be delivered to the Person entitled
thereto as determined by the Intercreditor Agreement, by applicable law or applicable court order.

SECTION 2.18.     Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

(a)      If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14, or if the Borrower is required to pay any
additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to
Section 2.16, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or
booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches
or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce
amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.14 or 2.16, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject
such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender.  The
Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any
such designation or assignment.

(b)      If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14, or if the Borrower is required to pay any
additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to
Section 2.16, or if any Lender defaults in its obligation to fund Loans hereunder or if a Lender fails to consent
to an Extension Request, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and
the Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the
restrictions contained in Section 10.04), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an
assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such
assignment); provided that (i) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Agent (and, if a
Revolving Commitment is being assigned, the Issuing Bank and Swingline Lender), which consent shall not
unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding
principal of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans, accrued interest thereon,
accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder (including any amounts due under Section 2.15 other
than in connection with an assignment resulting from a Lender's default in its obligations to fund Loans), from
the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the
case of all other amounts), (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation
under Section 2.16 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.16, such assignment will result in a
reduction in such compensation or payments, and (iv) in the case of any such assignment under the terms of
Section 2.08(b) resulting from the rejection of an Extension Request, such assignment will result in the consent
by all Lenders to such Extension Request.  A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and
delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling
the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

SECTION 2.19.     Exiting Lenders.  Each Lender who is not listed on Schedule 2.01 as having a Revolving
Commitment as of the Effective Date shall be referred to herein as an "Exiting Lender" and each Exiting Lender
agrees that after the Effective Date it (i) shall extinguish its rights and be released from its obligations
under the Prior Agreement, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (ii) shall no longer be deemed a
Lender and this Agreement may be amended or otherwise modified without its consent or agreement except the
consent of an Exiting Lender effected thereby shall be required for any amendment or other modification of this
Section 2.19). On the Effective Date, the Lenders who have increased their Revolving Commitment shall deliver
immediately available funds to the Agent and the Agent shall deliver such funds to the other Lenders and Exiting
Lenders, in each case in amounts sufficient so that after giving effect thereto, the Loans shall be held by the
Lenders pro rata according to their respective Revolving Commitments.  The amounts funded under the foregoing
sentence shall be deemed an ABR Loan and a continuation and assignment of the Loans made by the Lenders receiving
such funds.  The Borrower agrees to pay each Lender receiving such funds under the foregoing sentence any amounts
due under Section 2.15 arising from the payment of any Eurodollar Loan prior to the end of the Interest Period
applicable thereto resulting from such receipt of funds.

SECTION 2.20.     Consent Relating to the Subordinated Debt.  Each party hereto that is a "Lender" under the
Prior Agreement hereby consents to:  (a) the Borrower's departure from Section 6.01 of the Prior Agreement in
order to permit the Borrower to incur the Subordinated Debt and (b) to the Borrower's departure from Section 6.08
of the Prior Agreement in order to permit the Borrower to repurchase the May & Speh Notes, as long as any
obligation entered into to repurchase such notes is contingent on the funding of the Subordinated Debt, such
repurchase will be made with the proceeds of the Subordinated Notes and any May & Speh Notes so repurchased will
promptly be canceled and no longer outstanding; provided that: such consents shall not be deemed consents to the
departure from or waivers of:  (a) Sections 6.01 or 6.08 of the Prior Agreement or Sections 6.01 or 6.08 of this
Agreement for any other purpose; (b) any other covenant or condition contained in this Agreement or the Prior
Agreement; or (c) any Default that might otherwise arise as a result thereof. The Borrower agrees that its
failure to comply with Sections 6.01 or 6.08 of the Prior Agreement or Sections 6.01 or 6.08 of this Agreement
with respect to any other transaction covered thereby shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder.

SECTION 2.21.     Consent  Relating to the  Intercreditor  Agreement.  Each party hereto that is a "Creditor" under
the  Intercreditor  Agreement or a "Lender" under the Prior Agreement  hereby consents to the Borrower's  departure
from Section 4.02 of the  Intercreditor  Agreement  and Section  2.08(e) of the Prior  Agreement in order to permit
the Net Proceeds of the  Subordinated  Debt to be applied as follows:  (i) either (a) the prepayment in full of the
Senior  Notes  directly  or (b) the  reimburse  the issuer of the letter of credit  supporting  the  payment of the
Senior  Notes for a draw  thereunder  of all  amounts  owed in respect of the Senior  Notes;  (ii)  either  (a) the
redemption  in full of the May & Speh  Notes;  (b) if the May & Speh Notes are  converted  in  accordance  with the
terms thereof, then to the prepayment of the Revolving Loans (without reduction of the Revolving  Commitments);  or
(c) repurchase the May & Speh Notes if such May & Speh Notes are promptly canceled and no longer  outstanding;  and
(iii) the  prepayment of the  outstanding  amount of the Revolving  Loans;  provided that such consent shall not be
deemed a consent  to the  departure  from or waiver of those  sections  for any other  purpose  and the  Borrower's
failure to comply with those sections with respect to any other  transaction  covered  thereby shall  constitute an
Event of Default  hereunder.  Each  party  hereto  that is a Creditor  under the  Intercreditor  Agreement  hereby:
(i) consent  to and agrees  with the  amendment  to the  Intercreditor  Agreement  in the form  attached  hereto as
Exhibit C;  (ii) authorizes and directs the Agent,  the Collateral Agent and Bank of America as agent in respect of
the Synthetic Real Property Lease to execute and deliver such  amendment;  and  (iii) agree  and  acknowledge  that
this Agreement is the "Revolver Agreement" under the Intercreditor Agreement.

SECTION 2.22.     Waiver of Existing Default.  The Borrower has advised the lenders under the Prior Agreement and
the other Creditors that Defaults have occurred under clause (e) of Article VIII of the Prior Agreement as a
result of the failure of the Borrower to comply with Section 5.11 of the Prior Agreement and Section 4.04 of the
Intercreditor Agreement with respect to the creation of its new subsidiary named Acxiom UWS, Ltd. (the "Existing
Default").  Each party hereto that is a "Lender" under the Prior Agreement hereby waives the Existing Default and
agrees not to exercise any rights or remedies available as a result of the occurrence thereof.  To induce such
parties to agree to the terms of this Section 2.22 , Borrower and the Guarantors (by their execution below) agree
that the waiver specifically described herein shall not constitute and shall not be deemed a waiver of any other
Default, whether arising as a result of the further violation of Section 5.11 of the Prior Agreement or this
Agreement, Section 4.04 of the Intercreditor Agreement or otherwise, or a waiver of any rights or remedies
arising as a result of such other Defaults.  The failure to comply with the Section 5.11 of this Agreement or
Section 4.04 of the Intercreditor Agreement for any date other than as specifically described in the definition
of Existing Default shall constitute an Event of Default.

ARTICLE III.

Representations and Warranties

         The Borrower represents and warrants to the Lenders that:

SECTION 3.01.     Organization; Powers.  Each of the Borrower and each Subsidiary is duly organized, validly
existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, has all requisite power and
authority to carry on its business as now conducted and is qualified to do business in, and is in good standing
in, every jurisdiction where such qualification is required, except where the failure to do so, individually or
in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

SECTION 3.02.     Authorization; Enforceability.  The Loan Documents to be entered into by the Borrower and each
Guarantor are within their respective corporate powers and have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate
and, if required, stockholder action.  This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Borrower and
constitutes, and each other Loan Document to which the Borrower or any of the Guarantors is to be a party, when
executed and delivered, will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of, the Borrower or such Guarantor
(as the case may be), enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally and subject to general
principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.

SECTION 3.03.     Governmental Approvals; No Conflicts.  The execution, performance and delivery of the Loan
Documents by the Borrower and the Guarantors (a) do not require any consent or approval of, registration or
filing with (other than the inclusion of this Agreement as an exhibit to routine filings under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934), or any other action by, any Governmental Authority, (b) will not violate any applicable
law or regulation or the charter, by-laws or other organizational documents of the Borrower or any of the
Subsidiaries or any order of any Governmental Authority, (c) will not violate in any material respect or result
in a material default under any indenture, agreement or other instrument (including the May & Speh Note
Documents, the Subordinated Debt Documents, the Senior Note Documents, the Synthetic Airplane Lease Facility, the
Synthetic Equipment Lease Facility and the Synthetic Real Property Lease) binding upon the Borrower or any of the
Subsidiaries or its assets, or give rise to a right thereunder to require any payment to be made by the Borrower
or any of the Subsidiaries, and (d) will not result in the creation or imposition of any Lien on any asset of the
Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries.

SECTION 3.04.     Financial Condition; No Material Adverse Change.

(a)      The Borrower has heretofore furnished to the Lenders its consolidated balance sheet and statements of
income, stockholders equity and cash flows (i) as of and for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2001 reported on by
independent public accountants, and (ii) as of and for the fiscal quarter and the portion of the fiscal year
ended September 30, 2001, certified by its chief financial officer.  Such financial statements present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position and results of operations and cash flows of the Borrower and the
Subsidiaries as of such dates and for such periods in accordance with GAAP, subject to year-end audit adjustments
and the absence of footnotes in the case of the statements referred to in clause (ii) above.

(b)      Except: (i) as disclosed in the financial statements referred to above or the notes thereto, (ii) for
the Disclosed Matters and (iii) for the Indebtedness incurred pursuant to the Subordinated Debt Documents, none
of the Borrower or the Subsidiaries has, as of the Effective Date, any contingent liabilities, unusual long-term
commitments or unrealized losses which could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

(c)      Except for the Disclosed Matters, since September 30, 2001 there has been no material adverse change in
the business, assets, operations or financial condition of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

SECTION 3.05.     Properties.

(a)      Each of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries has good title to, or valid leasehold interests in, all its
real and personal property material to its business (including its Collateral), except for minor defects in title
that do not interfere with its ability to conduct its business as currently conducted or to utilize such
properties for their intended purposes free and clear of all Liens other than Permitted Encumbrances and Liens
permitted by clauses (ii) through (v) of Section 6.02;

(b)      Each of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries owns, or is licensed to use, all trademarks, tradenames,
copyrights, patents and other intellectual property material to its business, and the use thereof by the Borrower

against or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened against or affecting the Borrower or any of the

Agreement or any other Loan Document or delivered hereunder or thereunder (as modified or supplemented by other
information so furnished) contains any material misstatement of fact or omits to state any material fact
necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading; provided that, with respect to projected financial information, the Borrower represents only that
such information was prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable at the time.

SECTION 3.12.     Subsidiaries.  As of January 28, 2002, Borrower has no Subsidiaries other than those listed on

Standards Act or any other applicable Federal, state, local or foreign law dealing with such matters in any
material respect.  All material amounts due from the Borrower or any Subsidiary, or for which any claim may be
made against the Borrower or any Subsidiary, on account of wages and employee health and welfare insurance and
other benefits, have been paid or accrued as a liability on the books of the Borrower or such Subsidiary.

SECTION 3.15.     Solvency.  Immediately following the making of each Loan and after giving effect to the
application of the proceeds of such Loans, (a) the fair value of the assets of Borrower and each Guarantor, at a
fair valuation, will exceed its debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise; (b) the present
fair saleable value of the property of Borrower and each Guarantor will be greater than the amount that will be
required to pay the probable liability of its debts and other liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise,
as such debts and other liabilities become absolute and matured; (c) Borrower and each Guarantor will be able to
pay its debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such debts and liabilities become
absolute and matured; and (d) Borrower and each Guarantor will not have unreasonably small capital with which to
conduct the business in which it is engaged as such business is now conducted and is proposed to be conducted
following the Effective Date.  As used in this Section 3.15, the term "fair value" means the amount at which the
applicable assets would change hands between a willing buyer and a willing seller within a reasonable time, each
having reasonable knowledge of the relevant facts, neither being under any compulsion to act, with equity to both

of its important activities, in the business of extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying margin
stock (within the meaning of Regulations U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), and,
except for the repurchases of the Borrower's capital stock in accordance with the limitations in Section 5.10 and
Section 6.08, no part of the proceeds of any Loan will be used to purchase or carry any margin stock or to extend
credit to others for the purpose of purchasing or carrying margin stock.

SECTION 3.17.     Senior Indebtedness.  The Indebtedness under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents
constitutes "Senior Indebtedness" and "Designated Senior Indebtedness" under and as defined in the Subordinated

the same  purpose  or  purposes  as the  property  sold or  transferred,  except  for any such sale of any fixed or

asset and the lease thereof pursuant to:

(i)      the Synthetic  Equipment Lease  Facility,  the Synthetic  Airplane Lease  Facility,  or the Synthetic Real
Property Lease or

(ii)     any other lease otherwise permitted hereby if, after giving effect to any sale in connection with a

Proceeds from an asset disposition and applied as required by Section 4.02 of the Intercreditor Agreement.  If

the forgoing sentence, then fifty percent (50%) of the aggregate amount of the book value of such assets shall be
required to be included in the computation required by the first sentence of this Section 6.06.  If the Borrower
finances the Conway Facility in a transaction permitted by Section 6.01(a)(xii)(B) which does not include a sale
and lease back, then fifty percent (50%) of the aggregate amount of the book value of the Conway Facility shall
be included in the calculations under this Section 6.06 as if the Conway Facility had been sold in a sale and
lease back transaction unless fifty percent (50%) of the Net Proceeds received in connection with such financing
are treated by Borrower as Net Proceeds from an asset disposition and applied as required by Section 4.02 of the
Intercreditor Agreement.

of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries thereunder are subordinated to the Indebtedness and other obligations
arising hereunder and under the other Loan Documents on terms satisfactory to the Required Lenders and (ii) in
the case of any Synthetic Purchase Agreement related to any subordinated Indebtedness, (A) the payments required
to be made thereunder are limited to the amount permitted under Section 6.08(b) of this Agreement and (B) the

Agent a copy of any Synthetic Purchase Agreement to which it becomes party.

SECTION 6.09.     Transactions with Affiliates.  The Borrower will not, nor will it permit any Subsidiary to,

any Subordinated Debt Document, (ii) the foregoing shall not apply to restrictions and conditions existing on
January 28, 2002 identified on Schedule 6.10 (but shall apply to any extension or renewal of, or any amendment or

obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer

assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of the Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit) and, to
the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of the Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders) any
legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender's Revolving Commitment and Loans, the amount of
the Revolving Commitment and Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the
date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Agent) shall not be less

Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500, and (v) the assignee, if it shall not be a
Lender, shall deliver to the Agent an Administrative Questionnaire; and provided further that any consent of the
Borrower otherwise required under this paragraph shall not be required if an Event of Default under clause (h) or

paragraph (d) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance the
assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and
Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder
shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations
under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning Lender's
rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to

(c)      The Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at its offices in New
York, New York a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the
names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Revolving Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans and
LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the "Register").  The
entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders may
treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for
all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary.  The Register shall be available for
inspection by the Borrower, the Issuing Bank and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon
reasonable prior notice.

(d)      Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an
assignee, the assignee's completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender
hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written
consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Agent shall accept such Assignment and
Acceptance and record the information contained therein in the Register.  No assignment shall be effective for
purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

(e)      Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower, the Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline
Lender, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a "Participant") in all or a portion of such
Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Revolving Commitment and
the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender's obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged,
(ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such
obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Agent, the Issuing Bank and the other Lenders shall continue to deal
solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this
Agreement.  Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that
such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce the Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification
or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that
such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver
described in the first proviso to Section 10.02(b) that affects such Participant.  Subject to paragraph (f) of
this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.15,
2.16 and 2.17 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to
paragraph (b) of this Section.  To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the
benefits of Section 10.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to
Section 2.17(c) as though it were a Lender.

(f)      A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.14 or 2.16 than the
applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant,
unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower's prior written consent.  A
Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of
Section 2.16 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant
agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 2.16(e) as though it were a Lender.

(g)      Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights
under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure
obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a
security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from
any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

SECTION 7.05.     Survival.  All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrower in
the Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this
Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and
shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans and issuance of any
Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and
notwithstanding that the Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or
incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full
force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount
payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the
Revolving Commitments have not expired or terminated.  The provisions of Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and
10.03 and Article IX shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of
Credit and the Revolving Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

SECTION 7.06.     Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness; Amendment and Restatement.  This Agreement may be
executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall
constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract.  THIS AGREEMENT,
THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS AND ANY SEPARATE LETTER AGREEMENTS WITH RESPECT TO FEES PAYABLE TO THE AGENT EMBODY THE
FINAL, ENTIRE AGREEMENT AMONG THE PARTIES RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF AND SUPERSEDE ANY AND ALL
PREVIOUS COMMITMENTS, AGREEMENTS, REPRESENTATIONS AND UNDERSTANDINGS, WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN, RELATING TO THE
SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF (INCLUDING THE PRIOR AGREEMENT) AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED OR VARIED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR,
CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OR DISCUSSIONS OF THE PARTIES HERETO  THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL
AGREEMENTS AMONG THE PARTIES HERETO.  Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective
when it shall have been executed by the Agent and the Borrower and when the Agent shall have received
counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and
thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors
and assigns.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy shall be
effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. This Agreement amends and restates in
its entirety the Prior Agreement.  The execution of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents executed in
connection herewith does not extinguish the commitment under or the indebtedness outstanding in connection with
the Prior Agreement nor does it constitute a novation with respect to such commitment or such indebtedness.  The
Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders ratify and confirm each of the Loan Documents entered into prior to the
Effective Date (but excluding the Prior Agreement) and agree that such Loan Documents continue to be legal,
valid, binding and enforceable in accordance with their respective terms.  However, for all matters arising prior
to the Effective Date (including the accrual and payment of interest and fees, and matters relating to
indemnification and compliance with financial covenants), the terms of the Prior Agreement (as unmodifed by this
Agreement) shall control and are hereby ratified and confirmed.  The Borrower and each Guarantor represents and
warrants that as of the Effective Date there are no claims or offsets against or defenses or counterclaims to its
obligations under the Prior Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.  TO INDUCE THE LENDERS AND THE AGENT TO
ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT, THE BORROWER AND EACH GUARANTOR WAIVES ANY AND ALL SUCH CLAIMS, OFFSETS, DEFENSES OR
COUNTERCLAIMS, WHETHER KNOWN OR UNKNOWN, ARISING PRIOR TO THE EFFECTIVE DATE AND RELATING TO THE LOAN DOCUMENTS
OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and
notwithstanding any Loan Document to the contrary, the Borrower, the Guarantors, the Agent and the Lenders agree
and acknowledge that:

(A)      the term "Credit Agreement" as used in each Loan Document means this Agreement;

(B)      the term "Guaranteed Indebtedness" as used in the Subsidiary Guaranty and the term "Revolver
Obligations" as used in the Intercreditor Agreement includes all of the obligations, indebtedness and liability of
the Borrower to the Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders, or any of them, arising pursuant to this Agreement;

(C)      any reference to The Chase Manhattan Bank or Chase Bank of Texas, National Association in any Loan
Document executed prior to the Effective Date shall mean a reference to JPMorgan Chase Bank, as successor in
interest by merger.

SECTION 7.07.     Severability.  Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in
any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or
unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof;
and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in
any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 7.08.     Right of Setoff.  If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be  continuing,  each Lender and
each of its Affiliates is hereby  authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent  permitted by
law, to set off and apply any and all deposits  (general or special,  time or demand,  provisional or final) at any
time held and other  obligations  at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account
of the  Borrower  against any of and all the  obligations  of the Borrower  now or  hereafter  existing  under this
Agreement  held by such  Lender,  irrespective  of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this
Agreement  and although  such  obligations  may be  unmatured.  The rights of each Lender under this Section are in
addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have.

SECTION 7.09.     Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process.

(a)      This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of Texas.

(b)      THE BORROWER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDI-TIONALLY SUBMITS, FOR ITSELF AND ITS PROPERTY, TO THE
NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF TEXAS SITTING IN DALLAS COUNTY AND OF THE UNITED
STATES DISTRICT COURT OF THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS, AND ANY APPELLATE COURT FROM ANY THEREOF, IN ANY ACTION
OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, OR FOR RECOGNITION OR ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT,
AND EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF ANY
SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN SUCH TEXAS STATE OR, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN
SUCH FEDERAL COURT.  EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AGREES THAT A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING
SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER
PROVIDED BY LAW.  NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT SHALL AFFECT ANY RIGHT THAT THE AGENT, THE
ISSUING BANK OR ANY LENDER MAY OTHERWISE HAVE TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY
OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AGAINST THE BORROWER OR ITS PROPERTIES IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION.

(c)      The Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and
effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or
proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any court referred to in
paragraph (b) of this Section.  Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any
such court.

(d)      Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for
notices in Section 10.01.  Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document will affect the right of any
party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

SECTION 7.10.     WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.  EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY
APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING
OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER
BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY).  EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR
ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE
EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES
HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND
CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

SECTION 7.11.     Headings.  Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for
convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be
taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

SECTION 7.12.     Confidentiality.  The Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders agrees to maintain the
confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and
its Affiliates' directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other
advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the
confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent
requested by any regulatory authority, (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any
subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party to this Agreement, (e) in connection with the exercise
of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document
or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions
substantially the same as those of this Section, to any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective
assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, (g) with the consent of the
Borrower or (h) to the extent such Information:  (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a
breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to the Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender on a
nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower.  For the purposes of this Section, "Information"
means all information received from the Borrower relating to the Borrower or its business, other than any such
information that is available to the Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to
disclosure by the Borrower; provided that, in the case of information received from the Borrower after the date
hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential.  Any Person required to
maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with
its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of
such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

SECTION 7.13.     Maximum Interest Rate.

(a)      No interest rate specified in any Loan Document shall at any time exceed the Maximum Rate.  If at any
time the interest rate (the "Contract Rate") for any obligation under the Loan Documents shall exceed the Maximum
Rate, thereby causing the interest accruing on such obligation to be limited to the Maximum Rate, then any
subsequent reduction in the Contract Rate for such obligation shall not reduce the rate of interest on such
obligation below the Maximum Rate until the aggregate amount of interest accrued on such obligation equals the
aggregate amount of interest which would have accrued on such obligation if the Contract Rate for such obligation
had at all times been in effect.  As used herein, the term "Maximum Rate" means, at any time with respect to any
Lender, the maximum rate of nonusurious interest under applicable law that such Lender may charge Borrower.  The
Maximum Rate shall be calculated in a manner that takes into account any and all fees, payments, and other
charges contracted for, charged, or received in connection with the Loan Documents that constitute interest under
applicable law.  Each change in any interest rate provided for herein based upon the Maximum Rate resulting from
a change in the Maximum Rate shall take effect without notice to Borrower at the time of such change in the
Maximum Rate.  For purposes of determining the Maximum Rate under Texas law, the applicable rate ceiling shall be
the weekly rate ceiling described in, and computed in accordance with, Article 5069-1.04, Vernon's Texas Civil
Statutes.

(b)      No provision of any Loan Document shall require the payment or the collection of interest in excess of
the maximum amount permitted by applicable law.  If any excess of interest in such respect is hereby provided
for, or shall be adjudicated to be so provided, in any Loan Document or otherwise in connection with this loan
transaction, the provisions of this Section shall govern and prevail and neither Borrower nor the sureties,
guarantors, successors, or assigns of Borrower shall be obligated to pay the excess amount of such interest or
any other excess sum paid for the use, forbearance, or detention of sums loaned pursuant hereto.  In the event
any Lender ever receives, collects, or applies as interest any such sum, such amount which would be in excess of
the maximum amount permitted by applicable law shall be applied as a payment and reduction of the principal of
the obligations outstanding hereunder, and, if the principal of the obligations outstanding hereunder has been
paid in full, any remaining excess shall forthwith be paid to the Borrower.  In determining whether or not the
interest paid or payable exceeds the Maximum Rate, Borrower and each Lender shall, to the extent permitted by
applicable law, (a) characterize any non-principal payment as an expense, fee, or premium rather than as
interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and
spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the entire contemplated term of the
obligations outstanding hereunder so that interest for the entire term does not exceed the Maximum Rate.

(c)      The provisions of Chapter 346 of the Finance Code of Texas are specifically declared by the parties
hereto not to be applicable to this Agreement  or to the transactions contemplated hereby.

SECTION 7.14.     Intercompany Subordination.

(a)      Borrower agrees that the Subordinated Indebtedness (as defined below) shall be subordinate and junior in
right of payment to the prior payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness (as defined below) as herein provided.
The Subordinated Indebtedness shall not be payable, and no payment of principal, interest or other amounts on
account thereof, and no property or guarantee of any nature to secure or pay the Subordinated Indebtedness shall
be made or given, directly or indirectly by or on behalf of any Guarantor or received, accepted, retained or
applied by Borrower unless and until the Senior Indebtedness shall have been paid in full in cash; except that
prior to the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, each Guarantor shall have the right to make
payments, and the Borrower shall have the right to receive payments on the Subordinated Indebtedness from time to
time as may be determined by Borrower.  After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default,
no payments of principal, interest or other amounts may be made or given, directly or indirectly, by or on behalf
of any Guarantor or received, accepted, retained or applied by Borrower unless and until the Senior Indebtedness
shall have been paid in full in cash.  If any sums shall be paid to Borrower by any Guarantor or any other Person
on account of the Subordinated Indebtedness when such payment is not permitted hereunder, such sums shall be held
in trust by the Borrower for the benefit of Agent and the Lenders and shall forthwith be paid to and applied by
Agent against the Senior Indebtedness in accordance with the terms hereof.  For purposes of this Section 10.14,
the term (i) "Subordinated Indebtedness" means, with respect to a Guarantor, all indebtedness, liabilities, and
obligations of such Guarantor to Borrower, whether such indebtedness, liabilities, and obligations now exist or
are hereafter incurred or arise, or are direct, indirect, contingent, primary, secondary, several, joint and
several, or otherwise, and irrespective of whether such indebtedness, liabilities, or obligations are evidenced
by a note, contract, open account, or otherwise, and irrespective of the Person or Persons in whose favor such
indebtedness, obligations, or liabilities may, at their inception, have been, or may hereafter be created, or the
manner in which they have been or may hereafter be acquired by Borrower and (ii) "Senior Indebtedness" means,
with respect to each Guarantor, all of the obligations, indebtedness and liability of the such Guarantor to the
Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders, or any of them, arising pursuant to the Subsidiary Guaranty or any of
the other Loan Documents, whether now existing or hereafter arising, whether direct, indirect, related,
unrelated, fixed, contingent, liquidated, unliquidated, joint, several, or joint and several, including, without
limitation, any and all post-petition interest and expenses (including attorneys' fees) whether or not allowed
under any bankruptcy, insolvency, or other similar law.

(b)      Borrower agrees that any and all Liens (including any judgment liens), upon any Guarantor's assets
securing payment of any Subordinated Indebtedness shall be and remain inferior and subordinate to any and all
Liens upon any Guarantor's assets securing payment of the Senior Indebtedness or any part thereof, regardless of
whether such Liens in favor of Borrower, Agent or any Lender presently exist or are hereafter created or
attached.  Without the prior written consent of Agent, Borrower shall not (i) file suit against any Guarantor or
exercise or enforce any other creditor's right it may have against any Guarantor, or (ii) foreclose, repossess,
sequester, or otherwise take steps or institute any action or proceedings (judicial or otherwise, including
without limitation the commencement of, or joinder in, any liquidation, bankruptcy, rearrangement, debtor's
relief or insolvency proceeding) to enforce any obligations of any Guarantor to Borrower or any Liens held by
Borrower on assets of any Guarantor.

(c)      In the event of any receivership, bankruptcy, reorganization, rearrangement, debtor's relief, or other
insolvency proceeding involving any Guarantor as debtor, Agent shall have the right to prove and vote any claim
under the Subordinated Indebtedness and to receive directly from the receiver, trustee or other court custodian
all dividends, distributions, and payments made in respect of the Subordinated Indebtedness until the Senior
Indebtedness has been paid in full in cash. Agent may apply any such dividends, distributions, and payments
against the Senior Indebtedness in accordance with the terms hereof.

(d)      Borrower agrees that all promissory notes and other instruments evidencing Subordinated Indebtedness
shall contain a specific written notice thereon that the indebtedness evidenced thereby is subordinated under the
terms of this Section 10.14.

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be duly executed by their
respective authorized officers as of the day and year first above written.

JPMorgan Chase Bank,
as agent for certain lenders and the lenders
party to the hereinafter defined Agreement
2200 Ross Avenue, 3rd Floor
Dallas, Texas 75201

Re:      The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of January 28, 2002 (the "Agreement") among Acxiom
         Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), JPMorgan Chase Bank, as the agent and Bank of
         America, N.A., as syndication agent, and the other lenders named therein.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

         We are special counsel to the Company.  As such, we have been asked to render to you the opinion set
forth below relating to the Agreement.  This opinion is given pursuant to Section 4.01(b) of the Agreement.
Capitalized terms used herein, not otherwise defined, have the meanings given them in the Agreement.  The
Agreement, the Subsidiary joinder documents executed by Acxiom UWS, Ltd., and the Subordinated Debt Documents are
herein collectively referred to as the Transaction Documents.

         To enable us to render this opinion, we have reviewed originals or copies (certified or otherwise
identified to our satisfaction) of the Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws of the Company and each
Guarantor, the Transaction Documents, the records of proceedings of the Board of Directors of the Company and
each Guarantor, and such other documents, corporate records and certificates of public officials as we have
considered appropriate.

         For purposes of this opinion, we have, with your permission, assumed without independent investigation
or inquiry that:

                  (i)      all signatures of the parties other than the Company and the Guarantors on the
         Transaction Documents that we examined are genuine, the Transaction Documents submitted to us as
         originals are authentic, and the Transaction Documents submitted to us as copies conform to the original
         Transaction Documents executed by the parties thereto;

                  (ii)     the Transaction Documents have been duly and validly authorized, executed, delivered
         and accepted by all parties thereto (other than the Company and each Guarantor) and all parties thereto
         (other than the Company and each Guarantor) have all requisite power and authority to make and enter
         into the Transaction Documents and perform their obligations thereunder pursuant to the laws of all
         relevant jurisdictions;

                  (iii)    the Agent and the Lenders have their principal place of business, chief executive
         office and domicile outside of the State of Arkansas; all substantive negotiations relating to the
         transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents have taken place outside the State of Arkansas,
         either in person or by telephone conferences between your representatives in the States of Texas and New
         York and representatives of the Company in the State of Arkansas; the closing of the transactions
         contemplated by, the delivery by the Company and each Guarantor and the acceptance by the Lenders or
         their counsel of the Transaction Documents occurred in the State of Texas; the administration of and
         delivery and acceptance of payments pursuant to the Transaction Documents will take place in the State
         of New York; the choice of law as provided for in the Transaction Documents is valid pursuant to the
         conflict of laws principles under the laws of any and all jurisdictions governing the same (other than
         the State of Arkansas) specifically including the laws of the State of Texas; and, the parties to the
         Transaction Documents have voluntarily chosen to have the laws of the State of Texas govern the
         Transaction Documents;

                  (iv)     The Transaction Documents were entered into in good faith and for adequate
         consideration; and

                  (v)      The Agent and the Lenders will exercise their rights, remedies and benefits under the
         Transaction Documents in a commercially reasonably manner.

         Based upon the foregoing and subject to the qualifications and limitations set forth below, we are of
the opinion that:

         1.       The Company and each Guarantor organized under the laws of the States of either Arkansas or
Delaware (collectively the "Loan Parties") has been duly organized and is validly existing and in good standing
under the laws of the State of its incorporation or organization as reflected in the Agreement.

         2.       Each Loan Party has the corporate power and authority to enter into and perform the Transaction
Documents to which it is a party.  The execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents have been
duly authorized by all requisite corporate action, and the Transaction Documents have been duly executed and
delivered by each Loan Party who is a party thereto.

         3.       The execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents, and the performance by each Loan Party
that is a party thereto of their respective terms, do not conflict with or result in a violation of law, rule or
regulation, the Certificate of Incorporation or By-Laws of any Loan Party, or of any agreement, instrument,
order, writ, judgment or decree known to us to which any Loan Party is a party or is subject.

         4.       A court of the State of Arkansas presented with the facts, as we have assumed them, and
properly applying the current conflict of law principles, would honor the choice of law provisions as set forth
in the Transaction Documents and would not apply the substantive laws of the State of Arkansas, including usury
laws to the Transaction Documents, except for certain issues necessarily governed by Arkansas law such as title
to properties and remedies and procedures for enforcement in Arkansas.

         5.       No consent, approval, authorization or other action by, or filing with, any governmental
authority is required in connection with the execution and delivery by any Loan Party of Transaction Documents to
which it is a party.

         6.       To our knowledge, there are no actions, suits or proceedings pending or threatened against or
affecting the Company or any Subsidiary or any of their respective properties in any court or before any
arbitrator of any kind or before or by any Governmental Authority that, individually or in the aggregate, would
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

         7.       The execution and delivery by the Company and each Guarantor of the Agreement and the other
Transaction Documents executed by it, the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement and the
performance of the terms and provisions of the Agreement and the other Transaction Documents by the Company and
the Guarantors will not involve any violations of Regulation T, U or X or any other rule or regulation of the
Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System pursuant to Section 7 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended.

         8.       The Company is not an investment company, or a person directly or indirectly controlled by or
acting on behalf of an investment company, within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

         9.       The Indebtedness arising under the Subsidiary Guaranty, the Agreement and the other Loan
Documents constitutes "Senior Indebtedness" under and as defined in the Subordinated Debt Documents.

DALLAS2 860283v6 12283-00139
                                    FIRST AMENDMENT TO INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT

         THIS FIRST AMENDMENT TO INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT (the "Amendment"), dated as of January 28, 2002, is
among BANK OF AMERICA, N.A., a national banking association, as agent for the Synthetic Financing Parties (as
such term is defined in the Intercreditor Agreement described below and in such capacity and its successors in
such capacity, the "Synthetic Agent"), JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, as successor in interest by merger to The Chase
Manhattan Bank who was successor in interest by merger to Chase Bank of Texas, National Association and as agent
for the lenders under the Revolver Agreement (as such term is defined in such Intercreditor Agreement and in such
capacity and its successors in such capacity, the "Revolver Agent" and together with the Synthetic Agent, herein
the "Agents"), JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, as successor in interest by merger to The Chase Manhattan Bank in its
capacity as an issuer of a letter of credit as described in the Intercreditor Agreement, JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, as
successor in interest by merger to The Chase Manhattan Bank in its capacity as a term loan lender as described in
the Intercreditor Agreement, JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, as successor in interest by merger to The Chase Manhattan Bank
as collateral agent (the "Collateral Agent"), ACXIOM CORPORATION ("Borrower") and certain of its subsidiaries
(such subsidiaries, together with Borrower, the "Obligated Parties").

RECITALS:

         The Obligated Parties, The Chase Manhattan Bank in its individual capacity, the Agents, and the
Collateral Agent have entered into that certain Intercreditor Agreement dated as of September 21, 2001 (as the
same may hereafter be amended or otherwise modified, the "Agreement").  Capitalized terms that are used in these
recitals and the introduction to this Amendment which are not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning set
forth in the Agreement.

         The Borrower has advised the Collateral Agent and the Creditors that the Borrower desires to issue
convertible subordinated notes in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $205,000,000, the net proceeds of
which the Borrower would like to be used as follows, notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4.02 of the
Agreement to the contrary: (i) to prepay the Borrower's 6.92% Senior Notes due March 30, 2007; and (ii) to
provide the funds need to redeem and/or repurchase (and promptly cancelled) the Acxiom/May & Speh, Inc 5.25%
convertible subordinated notes due in April 2003.  Additionally, in connection with the issuance of the new
convertible subordinated notes, the Borrower will reduce the aggregate amount of the commitments under the
Revolver Agreement and, with the remainder of the net proceeds of such new notes, prepay the loans outstanding
thereunder which prepayment shall be sufficient to cause the outstanding loans to not exceed the aggregate amount
of the commitments as so reduced.  If the Acxiom/May & Speh, Inc 5.25% convertible subordinated notes are
converted prior to the redemption or repurchase, the net proceeds that would otherwise be applied thereto shall
be applied to reduce the outstandings under the Revolver Agreement (but not the commitments thereunder).

         The Borrower and the other Obligated Parties have also advised the Collateral Agent and the Creditors
that an Event of Default has occurred under the Agreement as a result of the Borrower's failure to cause Acxiom
UWS, Ltd., a subsidiary of the Borrower formed on November 16, 2001, to among other things, become party to the
Agreement and Security Agreement as required by Section 4.04 of the Agreement (the "Existing Default").

         The Required Creditors have consented to the application of the net proceeds of the new convertible
subordinated notes as described above and have waived the Existing Default.  In connection with the forgoing, the
Obligated Parties, the Agents, the Collateral Agent and JPMorgan Chase Bank in its individual now desire to amend
the Agreement as hereinafter set forth.

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises herein contained and other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows
effective as of the date hereof unless otherwise indicated:

ARTICLE I.

Share" in Section 1.01 of the Agreement  is amended in its entirety to read as follows:

                  (1)      if the sum of (a) the principal amount of the Senior Obligations advanced by
         and owed to the Revolving Lenders plus (b) the aggregate face amount of all outstanding letters
         of credit issued pursuant to the Revolver Agreement (the sum of the foregoing herein the

         Rata Share, then the Revolving Debt owed to the Revolving Lenders in excess of $175,000,000.00
         and any interest and commitment fees accrued thereon (the "Excess Revolving Obligations") shall
         not be included in the Senior Obligations for purposes of determining Senior Pro Rata Share

         determining Senior Pro Rata Share for each Revolving Lender, the Revolving Lender's
         proportionate share of the Excess Revolving Obligations shall not be included in the Senior
         Obligations owed to such Revolving Lender until the Senior Obligations (less the Excess
         Synthetic Obligations and Excess Noteholder Obligations, if any) owing to the other Senior

         Net Proceeds to the repair or restoration of the property subject to such event;

         then the Net Proceeds may be retained by the Borrower in connection with such Asset Disposition
         except to the extent of any Net Proceeds therefrom that have not been so applied by the end of

                  the consent of the Creditors party to such Transaction Documents be obtained;
                  or

                           (ii)     any casualty or other damage to, or any taking under power

         period of any contractual indemnification obligation or statute of limitation imposed upon the
         Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries.

         Any Net Proceeds to be applied to the Senior Obligations hereunder shall also be applied, with
         respect to a Senior Creditor, to reduce any commitment of such Senior Creditor which is
         outstanding in connection with the Senior Obligations being prepaid by an amount equal to such
         Senior Creditor's Senior Pro Rata Share of the total amount of such Net Proceeds (without
         regard to whether such Senior Obligations are paid in full); provided that the aggregate amount
         of the commitments under the Revolver Agreement shall not be reduce below $150,000,000 pursuant
         to this sentence. If no Potential Default or Event of Default exists, no draw has been made on

         Section 4.02, the Letter of Credit Bank agrees to allow such Net Proceeds to be applied as a
         prepayment on the Notes. Upon such prepayment, Borrower shall request from the Noteholders a
         reduction in the stated amount of the Letter of Credit in the amount of such prepayment in
         accordance with its right to do so. By execution of this Agreement, the Obligated Parties agree
         to apply any such Net Proceeds received from the Letter of Credit Bank to the prepayment of the
         Notes.  The Creditors agree that any such prepayment of the Notes are permitted notwithstanding
         anything in the Transaction Documents to the contrary or anything otherwise prohibiting such
         prepayment.

         back transaction or other financing permitted by the Transaction Documents upon receipt of a
