        be specified pursuant to  and  shall be specified for each resulting Tranche);

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

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

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

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

Section 2.04      Scheduled Repayment of Loan; Evidence of Debt.

(a)      The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Lender the then unpaid principal amount of the Loan on the
Maturity Date.

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

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

(d)    The Loan shall be evidenced by a Term Note or Term Notes payable to the order of the Lender in a form approved by the Lender.

Section 2.05      Prepayment of Loans.

(a)      Subject in all respects to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Borrower shall have the right at any time and from
time to time to prepay the principal balance of the Loan in whole or in part without premium or penalty except for amounts paid in
accordance with Section 2.10, subject to the requirements of this Section.

(b)     Prior to any optional or mandatory prepayment of the Loan hereunder, the Borrower shall select the Tranche or Tranches to be
prepaid and shall specify such selection in the notice of such prepayment pursuant to .

(c)      The Borrower shall notify the Lender by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of
prepayment of a Eurodollar Tranche, not later than 11:00 a.m., Dallas, Texas time, three Business Days before the date of
prepayment, or (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Tranche, not later than 11:00 a.m., 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 Tranche or
portion thereof to be prepaid and, in the case of a mandatory prepayment, a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such
prepayment.  Each partial prepayment of any (A) Eurodollar Tranche, shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of
$250,000 and not less than $2,000,000 and (B) ABR Tranche, shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $100,000
and not less than $1,000,000, except as necessary to apply fully the required amount of a mandatory prepayment.  Each prepayment of
a Tranche shall be applied ratably to the Loan included in the prepaid Tranche.  Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued
interest to the extent required by Section 2.07.

Section 2.06      [Intentionally Omitted.]

Section 2.07      Interest.

(a)      ABR Tranches shall bear interest at the Alternate Base.

(b)      Eurodollar Tranches shall bear interest at the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Tranche plus
the Applicable Rate then in effect.

(c)      Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on the 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 the Loan, 2% plus
the rate otherwise applicable to the 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 Tranches as provided in .

(d)      Accrued interest on the Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date and on the Maturity Date; provided
that (i) interest accrued pursuant to  shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of all or any
portion of the Loan, 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 Tranche prior to the end of the current Interest Period
therefor, accrued interest on such Tranche shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.

(e)      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 Lender, and
such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  The Lender shall, at the request of the Borrower, deliver to the
Borrower a statement showing the quotations used by the Lender in determining any interest rates pursuant to this Section 2.07

(f)      Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, if, at any time during the period commencing on the Effective Date and
continuing through and including December 21, 2002 (the "Applicable Period"), the Borrower shall enter into one or more agreements
pursuant to which the interest spread on the Revolving Loan or the obligations under the Synthetic Real Property Lease is increased
(any such increase being referred to herein as the "Rate Increase"), then the parties agree that the Lender shall have the right,
upon written notice to the Borrower, to immediately increase the Applicable Rate then in effect by an amount consistent with, and in
parity with, any such Rate Increase; provided, that any such increase or increases in the Applicable Rate pursuant to the provisions
of this sentence shall not be in an aggregate amount in excess of one-half of one percent (.50%) per annum during the Applicable
Period. Furthermore, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the parties agree that the Lender shall have the
additional right, commencing on December 22, 2002 and continuing on each December 22 thereafter, to increase the Applicable Rate
then in effect by one-quarter of one percent (.25%) per annum.  Any such election by the Lender shall be made by written notice to
the Borrower not less than thirty (30) days prior to the effective date of any such increase.

Section 2.08      Alternate Rate of Interest.  If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Tranche:

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

(b)      the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lender (as certified
by the Lender in a written certificate delivered to the Borrower setting forth in detail the reasons for the Lender's position) of
making or maintaining the portion of the Loan included in such Tranche for such Interest Period;

then the Lender shall give notice thereof to the Borrower by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until
the Lender notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, any Interest Election Request
that requests the conversion of any Tranche to, or continuation of any Tranche as, a Eurodollar Tranche shall be ineffective.

Section 2.09      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, the Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBO
         Rate); or

(ii)    impose on the Lender or the London interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Tranches made
         or maintained by the Lender;

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

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

(c)      A certificate of the Lender setting forth (i) the amount or amounts (including a description of the method of calculating
such amount or amounts), necessary to compensate the Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in  or  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 the Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within
ten days after receipt thereof.

(d)      Failure or delay on the part of the Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of
the Lender's right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate the Lender pursuant
to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that the Lender notifies the
Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of the Lender'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 2.10      Break Funding Payments.  In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurodollar Tranche 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 2.13), (b) the conversion of any Eurodollar Tranche other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto,
(c) the failure to convert, continue or prepay all or any portion of the Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant
hereto, or (d) the assignment of any Eurodollar Tranche other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a
result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.13, then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate the Lender for
the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurodollar Tranche, such loss, cost or expense to the Lender
shall be deemed to include an amount determined by the Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would
have accrued on the principal amount of the Tranche had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate that would have been
applicable to the Tranche, 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 convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Tranche),
over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which the 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 the Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that the 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 the Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within
ten days after receipt thereof.

Section 2.11      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 Lender and any other party hereto within ten days after written demand therefor, for the
full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Lender 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 the Lender shall set forth in reasonable detail the origin and amount of the payments to be due under
this Section 2.11(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 Lender 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 Lender.

(e)     If the Lender 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 the Borrower, or with respect to which the Borrower has
paid additional amounts, pursuant to this Section 2.11, it shall promptly notify the Borrower of the availability of such refund
claim and shall, within 30 days after receipt of a request by the Borrower, make a claim to such Governmental Authority for such
refund at the Borrower's expense.  If the Lender 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 the
Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower had paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.11, it shall within 30 days
from the date of such receipt pay over such refund to the Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional
amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 2.11 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such
refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Lender and without interest (other than interest paid by the relevant Governmental
Authority with respect to such refund); provided, however, that the Borrower, upon the request of the Lender, agrees to repay the
amount paid over to the Borrower (plus penalties, interest or other charges) to the Lender in the event the Lender is required to
repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.

Section 2.12      Payments Generally.(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 of amounts payable under Section 2.09, Section 2.10 or Section 2.11,
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 Lender, 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
Lender at its offices in New York, New York.  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 Lender to pay fully all amounts of principal,
interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due
hereunder, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal then due hereunder.

Section 2.13      Mitigation Obligations.  If the Lender requests compensation under Section 2.09, or if the Borrower is required to
pay any additional amount to the Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of the Lender pursuant to Section 2.11, then
the Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking the Loan hereunder or to
assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of the Lender,
such designation or assignment (a) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.09 or Section 2.11, as the case
may be, in the future and (b) would not subject the Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be
disadvantageous to the Lender.  The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Lender in
connection with any such designation or assignment.

Article III.

         The Borrower represents and warrants to the Lender that:

Section 3.01      Organization; Powers.  Each of the Borrower and each Subsidiary is duly organized, validly existing and in good

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

(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 and the Subsidiaries does not infringe

be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

(c)      As of the Effective Date, neither the Borrower nor any of the Subsidiaries has received notice of, or has knowledge of, any
pending or contemplated condemnation proceeding affecting any Mortgaged Property or any other real property owned by it or any sale
or disposition thereof in lieu of condemnation.  Neither any such real property nor any interest therein is subject to any right of
first refusal, option or other contractual right to purchase such real property or interest therein.

Section 3.06      Litigation and Environmental Matters.

(a)      There are no actions, suits or proceedings by or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority pending against or, to the
knowledge of the Borrower, threatened against or affecting the Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries (i) as to which there is a
reasonable possibility of an adverse determination and that, if adversely determined, could reasonably be expected, individually or
in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect or (ii) that involve any of the Loan Documents.

the aggregate, has resulted in, or materially increased the likelihood of, a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 3.07      Compliance with Laws and Agreements.  Each of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries is in compliance with all laws,
regulations and orders of any Governmental Authority applicable to it or its property and all indentures, agreements and other
instruments binding upon it or its property, except where the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, could not
reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.  No Default has occurred and is continuing.

Material Adverse Effect.

Section 3.10    ERISA.  No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur that, when taken together with all other such
ERISA Events for which liability is reasonably expected to occur, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
Effect.  The present value of all accumulated benefit obligations under each Plan (based on the assumptions used for purposes of
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 87) did not, as of the date of the most recent financial statements reflecting such
amounts, exceed by more than $5,000,000 of the fair market value of the assets of such Plan, and the present value of all
accumulated benefit obligations of all underfunded Plans (based on the assumptions used for purposes of Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 87) did not, as of the date of the most recent financial statements reflecting such amounts, exceed by more

restrictions to which the Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries is subject, and all other matters known to any of them, that,

financial statements, certificates or other information furnished by or on behalf of the Borrower to the Lender in connection with
the negotiation of this 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 the date hereof, the Borrower has no Subsidiaries other than those listed on Schedule 3.12
hereto.  As of the date hereof, Schedule 3.12 sets forth the jurisdiction of incorporation or organization of each such Subsidiary,

Subsidiary.

Section 3.13      Insurance.  Each of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries maintain with financially sound and reputable insurers,
insurance with respect to its properties and business against such casualties and contingencies and in such amounts as are usually
carried by businesses engaged in similar activities as the Borrower and the Subsidiaries and located in similar geographic areas in
which the Borrower and the Subsidiaries operate.

Section 3.14      Labor Matters.  As of the Effective Date, there are no strikes, lockouts or slowdowns against the Borrower or any
Subsidiary pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened.  The hours worked by and payments made to employees of the
Borrower and the Subsidiaries have not been in violation of the Fair Labor 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 the Loan and after giving effect to the application of the proceeds
of the Loan, (a) the fair value of the assets of the 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 the 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) the 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) the 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, and "present fair saleable value" means the amount that may be realized if the
applicable company's aggregate assets are sold with reasonable promptness in an arm's length transaction under present conditions
for the sale of a comparable business enterprises.

Section 3.16      Senior Indebtedness. Pursuant to that certain First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of September 17, 1998, among
the Borrower, May & Speh, Inc. and Harris Trust and Savings Bank, as trustee, the Borrower assumed the obligations of May &
Speh, Inc. under the Subordinated Debt and the Subordinated Debt Documents to the same extent as if the Borrower had been originally
named in the Subordinated Debt Documents as the "Company" (as such term was originally defined in such Subordinated Debt Documents).
The Indebtedness of the Borrower and Acxiom/May & Speh, Inc. arising under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents
(including with respect to Acxiom/May & Speh, Inc., the Subsidiary Guaranty) constitutes "Senior Indebtedness" under and as
defined in the Subordinated Debt Documents.

Section 3.17      Margin Securities.  Neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary is engaged principally, or as one 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 no part of the proceeds of the 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, in any case
in violation of Regulations U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

OR (iv) ANY ACTUAL OR PROSPECTIVE CLAIM, LITIGATION, INVESTIGATION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO ANY OF THE FOREGOING, WHETHER BASED ON
CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY AND REGARDLESS OF WHETHER ANY INDEMNITEE IS A PARTY THERETO; PROVIDED THAT SUCH INDEMNITY SHALL
NOT, AS TO ANY INDEMNITEE, BE AVAILABLE TO THE EXTENT THAT SUCH LOSSES, CLAIMS, DAMAGES, LIABILITIES OR RELATED EXPENSES ARE

Agreement.

(b)      The Lender may, upon notice to, but without the consent of, the Borrower, assign to one or more assignees all or a portion

this Agreement.  From and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, the assignee thereunder shall be a

rights and obligations under this Agreement, the Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the
benefits of Section 2.09, Section 2.10, Section 2.11, Section 2.12 and Section 9.03).  Any assignment or transfer by the Lender of

remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower shall continue
to deal solely and directly with the Lender in connection with the Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement.  Any
agreement or instrument pursuant to which the Lender sells such a participation shall provide that the 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 the Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to
any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that affects such Participant.  Subject to
Section 9.04(d), the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.09, Section 2.10, Section
2.11, and Section 2.12 to the same extent as if it were a lender hereunder and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to
Section 9.04(b).  To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.08 as though
it were a lender hereunder.

(d)      A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.09 or Section 2.11 than the 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.

(e)      The 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 the 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 the Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for the

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 the Loan, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and
notwithstanding that the 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
the Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid.  The provisions of Section 2.09,
Section 2.10, Section 2.11, Section 2.12 and Section 9.03 shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loan or the termination of this Agreement or any
provision hereof.

Section 9.06     Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness.  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 AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS EMBODY THE FINAL, ENTIRE AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES RELATING TO
THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF AND SUPERSEDE ANY AND ALL PREVIOUS COMMITMENTS, AGREEMENTS, REPRESENTATIONS AND UNDERSTANDINGS, WHETHER

OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OR DISCUSSIONS OF THE PARTIES HERETO. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES
HERETO. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Borrower
and the Lender 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.

Section 9.07      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 9.08      Right of Setoff.  If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the 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 the 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 the Lender, irrespective of whether or not the Lender shall have
made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured.  The rights of the Lender under this Section

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 Lender on a non-confidential 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 Lender on a non-confidential 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 9.13      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 the
Lender, the maximum rate of non-usurious interest under applicable law that the Lender may charge the 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 the
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 "indicated rate ceiling" described in, and computed in accordance with Chapter 303 of the Texas
Finance Code, as amended, substituted for a restated, or if permitted by applicable law and effective upon the giving of the notices
required by such Chapter 303 the "quarterly ceiling" or "annualized ceiling" from time to time in effect under such Chapter 303,
whichever the Lender shall elect to substitute for the "indicated rate ceiling."

(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 the Borrower nor the sureties, guarantors, successors, or assigns of the 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 the 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, the
Borrower and the Lender shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (i) characterize any non-principal payment as an expense,
fee, or premium rather than as interest, (ii) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (iii) 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 9.14      Intercompany Subordination.

(a)      The 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 the 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 the 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 the Borrower unless and until the Senior Indebtedness shall have been paid in full in cash. If any sums shall
be paid to the 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 the Lender and shall forthwith be paid to
and applied by the Lender against the Senior Indebtedness in accordance with the terms hereof.  For purposes of this Section 9.14,
the term (i) "Subordinated Indebtedness" means, with respect to a Guarantor, all indebtedness, liabilities, and obligations of such
Guarantor to the 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 the Borrower and (ii) "Senior Indebtedness" means,
with respect to each Guarantor, all of the obligations, indebtedness and liability of the such Guarantor to the Lender, 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)      The 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 the Borrower or the Lender
presently exist or are hereafter created or attached.  Without the prior written consent of the Lender, the 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 the Borrower or any Liens held by the 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, the Lender 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. The Lender may apply any such
dividends, distributions, and payments against the Senior Indebtedness in accordance with the terms hereof.

(d)      The 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 9.14.

Section 9.15      Intercreditor Agreement.  The rights of the Lenders under the Loan Documents are subject in all respects to the
terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, and this Section 9.15 shall control regarding any conflicts herein including provisions which
state "notwithstanding anything to the contrary" or any such similar language.

                                                 Form of Opinion of Borrower's Counsel

                                                          September 21, 2001





The Chase Manhattan Bank
2200 Ross Avenue, 3rd Floor
Dallas, Texas 75201

         Re:      The Term Credit Agreement dated as of September 21, 2001 (the "Agreement") between Acxiom Corporation, a Delaware
                  corporation (the "Company") and The Chase Manhattan Bank (the "Lender")

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(a)(vii) of the Agreement.  Capitalized terms used herein, not
otherwise defined, have the meanings given them in the Agreement.  The Agreement, the Term Note and the Subsidiary Guaranty are
hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Loan 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 Loan 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 Lender on the Loan Documents that we examined are genuine, the Loan Documents
         submitted to us as originals are authentic, and the Loan Documents submitted to us as copies conform to the original Loan
         Documents executed by the parties thereto;

                  (ii)     the Loan 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 Loan Documents and perform their obligations thereunder
         pursuant to the laws of all relevant jurisdictions;

                  (iii)  the Lender has its 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 Loan 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 Lender or its counsel of the Loan Documents
        occurred in the State of Texas; the administration of and delivery and acceptance of payments pursuant to the Loan Documents
        will take place in the State of New York; the choice of law as provided for in the Loan 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 Loan Documents have voluntarily
        chosen to have the laws of the State of Texas govern the Loan Documents;

                  (iv)     the Loan Documents were entered into in good faith and for adequate consideration; and

                  (v)      the Lender will exercise its rights, remedies and benefits under the Loan 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 Loan Documents to which it is a
party.  The execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents have been duly authorized by all requisite corporate action,
and the Loan Documents have been duly executed and delivered by each Loan Party who is a party thereto.

         3.      The execution and delivery of the Loan 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 Loan Documents and would not apply
the substantive laws of the State of Arkansas, including usury laws to the Loan 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 Loan 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 Loan 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 Loan 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.

         The opinions hereinafter expressed are subject to the following qualifications and limitations:

         (a)      The opinions set forth herein are subject to the qualification that we are members of the bar of the State of
Arkansas only and we express no opinion as to the laws of any jurisdiction other than the United States of America, the State of
Arkansas and the General Corporate Laws of the State of Delaware.

         (b)    This opinion is limited to pertinent laws in effect as of the date hereof, and we expressly disclaim any undertaking
to advise you of any changes of law or fact that may thereafter come to our attention.

         (c)     Our opinion is limited to the matters stated herein and no opinion is to be implied or may be inferred beyond those
matters expressly stated.  The opinions expressed herein represent our judgment as to certain legal matters, but they are not
warranties or guarantees and should not be construed as such.  The liability of this firm is limited to the fullest extent possible
under Ark. Code Ann. Section 16-114-303; provided, however, the requirements of such section necessary to allow the Lender to rely
on this opinion have been satisfied.

         (d)     This opinion is furnished by us solely for your benefit, and it may not be relied upon, quoted from or delivered to
any person other than counsel to you and your agents or employees and participants without our express prior written consent, except
(i) in connection with the enforcement of obligations of the Loan Parties under the Loan Documents, (ii) in response to a valid
subpoena or other legal process, (iii) as otherwise required by applicable law or regulations, or (iv) in connection with the sale
or transfer of the rights under the Loan Documents to a subsequent purchaser or transferee.

         (e)    The phrases "known to us" or "to our knowledge" as used in this letter means the actual knowledge of those attorneys
of our firm who have performed services in connection with the Loan Documents and this opinion based solely on representations from
the Company, and does not include constructive knowledge or knowledge imputed to our firm under common law principles of agency or
otherwise.  Except as expressly set forth herein, we have not undertaken any investigation to determine the existence or absence of
any facts and no inference as to our knowledge concerning any facts should be drawn from the fact that such representation has been
undertaken by us.

         (f)      For purposes of the factual matters material to the opinions expressed herein, we have, with your consent, relied
upon the correctness of the representations contained in the Agreement and the factual assumptions stated therein.

         (g)      Our opinions are rendered as of the date hereof and do not cover the effect of any amendment or supplement to the
Loan Documents or the validity or enforceability of any amendment or supplement thereto, including without limitation any
refinancings, modifications, extensions, waivers or releases or the effect or applicability of federal or state tax laws on or to
the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents.

         (h)    We have made no examination or investigation to verify the accuracy or completeness of any financial, accounting, or
statistical information furnished to you or with respect to any other accounting and financial matters and express no opinion with
respect thereto.

         (i)    We call your attention to the fact that the awarding of attorney's fees and expenses is discretionary under Arkansas
law.  We cannot opine that attorney's fees and expenses will be awarded in any particular amount.

         (j)     Our opinions are subject to, and we express no opinion on, state or federal law relating to fraudulent conveyances.

         (k)      The opinions expressed above are (i) given to the addressees hereof solely for their benefit and the benefit of
their successors and transferees (including any assignee or participant in the Loan under the Agreement) and it is acknowledged that

                                                          GUARANTY AGREEMENT
                                                            (Subsidiaries)

         WHEREAS, ACXIOM CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (the "Borrower") has entered into that certain Term Credit Agreement
dated as of September 21, 2001, between the Borrower and THE CHASE MANHATTAN BANK (the "Lender") (such Term Credit Agreement, as it
may hereafter be amended or otherwise modified from time to time, being hereinafter referred to as the "Credit Agreement", and
capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meaning as set forth in the Credit Agreement);

         WHEREAS, the execution of this Guaranty Agreement is a condition to the Lender's obligations under the Credit Agreement;

         NOW, THEREFORE, for valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, each of the
undersigned Subsidiaries and any Subsidiary hereafter added as a "Guarantor" hereto pursuant to a Subsidiary Joinder Agreement in
the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (individually a "Guarantor" and collectively the "Guarantors"), hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally guarantees to the Lender and its Affiliates the full and prompt payment and performance of the Guaranteed
Indebtedness (hereinafter defined), this Guaranty Agreement being upon the following terms:

1.       The term "Guaranteed Indebtedness", as used herein means all of the obligations, indebtedness and liability of the Borrower
to the Lender arising pursuant to any of the Loan Documents, pursuant to any interest rate protection Hedging Agreement entered into
by the Lender or any of its Affiliates with the Borrower to hedge or mitigate interest rate risk on the Loans, whether now existing
or hereafter arising, whether direct, indirect, related, unrelated, fixed, contingent, liquidated, unliquidated, joint, several, or
joint and several, including, without limitation, the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loan, interest on the Loan and all
fees, costs and expenses (including attorneys' fees and expenses) provided for in the Loan Documents or such interest rate
protection Hedging Agreements. The "Guaranteed Indebtedness" shall include any and all post-petition interest and expenses
(including attorneys' fees) whether or not allowed under any bankruptcy, insolvency, or other similar law; provided that the
Guaranteed Indebtedness shall be limited, with respect to each Guarantor, to an aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that
would not render such Guarantor's obligations hereunder subject to avoidance under Section 544 or 548 of the United States
Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state law relating to fraudulent transfers or conveyances.

2.       The Guarantors together desire to allocate among themselves (collectively, the "Contributing Guarantors"), in a fair and
equitable manner, their obligations arising under this Guaranty Agreement.  Accordingly, in the event any payment or distribution is
made by a Guarantor under this Guaranty Agreement (a "Funding Guarantor") that exceeds its Fair Share (as defined below), that
Funding Guarantor shall be entitled to a contribution from each of the other Contributing Guarantors in the amount of such other
Contributing Guarantor's Fair Share Shortfall (as defined below), with the result that all such contributions will cause each
Contributing Guarantor's Aggregate Payments (as defined below) to equal its Fair Share.  "Fair Share" means, with respect to a
Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, an amount equal to (i) the ratio of (x) the Adjusted Maximum Amount (as
defined below) with respect to such Contributing Guarantor to (y) the aggregate of the Adjusted Maximum Amounts with respect to all
Contributing Guarantors, multiplied by (ii) the aggregate amount paid or distributed on or before such date by all Funding
Guarantors under this Guaranty Agreement in respect of the obligations guarantied.  "Fair Share Shortfall" means, with respect to a
Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, the excess, if any, of the Fair Share of such Contributing Guarantor over
the Aggregate Payments of such Contributing Guarantor.  "Adjusted Maximum Amount" means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as
of any date of determination, the maximum aggregate amount of the obligations of such Contributing Guarantor under this Guaranty
Agreement determined in accordance with the provisions hereof; provided that, solely for purposes of calculating the "Adjusted
Maximum Amount" with respect to any Contributing Guarantor for purposes of this paragraph 2, the assets or liabilities arising by
virtue of any rights to or obligations of contribution hereunder shall not be considered as assets or liabilities of such
Contributing Guarantor. "Aggregate Payments" means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, the
aggregate amount of all payments and distributions made on or before such date by such Contributing Guarantor in respect of this
Guaranty Agreement (including, without limitation, in respect of this paragraph 2).  The amounts payable as contributions hereunder
shall be determined as of the date on which the related payment or distribution is made by the applicable Funding Guarantor.  The
allocation among Contributing Guarantors of their obligations as set forth in this paragraph 2 shall not be construed in any way to
limit the liability of any Contributing Guarantor hereunder.

3.      This instrument shall be an absolute, continuing, irrevocable and unconditional guaranty of payment and performance, and not
a guaranty of collection, and each Guarantor shall remain liable on its obligations hereunder until the payment and performance in
full of the Guaranteed Indebtedness.  No set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, reduction, or diminution of any obligation, or any
defense of any kind or nature which the Borrower may have against the Lender or any other party, or which any Guarantor may have
against the Borrower, the Lender or any other party, shall be available to, or shall be asserted by, any Guarantor against the
Lender or any subsequent holder of the Guaranteed Indebtedness or any part thereof or against payment of the Guaranteed Indebtedness
or any part thereof.

4.       If a Guarantor becomes liable for any indebtedness owing by Borrower to the Lender by endorsement or otherwise, other than
under this Guaranty Agreement, such liability shall not be in any manner impaired or affected hereby, and the rights of the Lender
hereunder shall be cumulative of any and all other rights that Lender may ever have against such Guarantor.  The exercise by the
Lender of any right or remedy hereunder or under any other instrument, or at law or in equity, shall not preclude the concurrent or
subsequent exercise of any other right or remedy.

5.       In the event of default by the Borrower in payment or performance of the Guaranteed Indebtedness, or any part thereof, when
such Guaranteed Indebtedness becomes due, whether by its terms, by acceleration, or otherwise, the Guarantors shall, jointly and
severally, promptly pay the amount due thereon to the Lender, without notice or demand, in lawful currency of the United States of
America, and it shall not be necessary for the Lender, in order to enforce such payment by any Guarantor, first to institute suit or
exhaust its remedies against the Borrower or others liable on such Guaranteed Indebtedness, or to enforce any rights against any
collateral which shall ever have been given to secure such Guaranteed Indebtedness.  In the event such payment is made by a
Guarantor, then such Guarantor shall be subrogated to the rights then held by the Lender with respect to the Guaranteed Indebtedness
to the extent to which the Guaranteed Indebtedness was discharged by such Guarantor and, in addition, upon payment by such Guarantor
of any sums to the Lender hereunder, all rights of such Guarantor against Borrower, any other guarantor or any collateral arising as
a result therefrom by way of right of subrogation, reimbursement, or otherwise shall in all respects be subordinate and junior in
right of payment to the prior indefeasible payment in full of the Guaranteed Indebtedness.  All payments received by the Lender
hereunder shall be applied by the Lender to payment of the Guaranteed Indebtedness in the following order unless a court of
competent jurisdiction shall otherwise direct:

(a)      FIRST, to payment of all costs and expenses of the Lender incurred in connection with the collection and enforcement of the
Guaranteed Indebtedness;

(b)      SECOND, to payment of that portion of the Guaranteed Indebtedness constituting accrued and unpaid interest and fees, pro
rata among the Lender and its Affiliates in accordance with the amount of such accrued and unpaid interest and fees owing to each of
them;

(c)      THIRD, to payment of the principal of the Guaranteed Indebtedness and the net early termination payments and any other
obligations due under any Hedging Agreements guaranteed hereby, pro rata among the Lender and its Affiliates in accordance with the
amount of such principal and such net early termination payments  and other obligations then due and unpaid owing to each of them;
and

(d)     FOURTH, to payment of any Guaranteed Indebtedness (other than the Guaranteed Indebtedness listed above) pro rata among those
parties to whom such Guaranteed Indebtedness is due in accordance with the amounts owing to each of them.

6.       If acceleration of the time for payment of any amount payable by the Borrower under the Guaranteed Indebtedness is stayed
upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, or reorganization of the Borrower, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the
terms of the Guaranteed Indebtedness shall nonetheless be payable by the Guarantors hereunder forthwith on demand by the Lender.

7.       Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its obligations under this Guaranty Agreement shall not be released, discharged,
diminished, impaired, reduced, or affected for any reason or by the occurrence of any event, including, without limitation, one or
more of the following events, whether or not with notice to or the consent of any Guarantor: (a) the taking or accepting of
collateral as security for any or all of the Guaranteed Indebtedness or the release, surrender, exchange, or subordination of any
collateral now or hereafter securing any or all of the Guaranteed Indebtedness; (b) any partial release of the liability of any
Guarantor hereunder, or the full or partial release of any other guarantor from liability for any or all of the Guaranteed
Indebtedness; (c) any disability of the Borrower, or the dissolution, insolvency, or bankruptcy of the Borrower, any Guarantor, or
any other party at any time liable for the payment of any or all of the Guaranteed Indebtedness; (d) any renewal, extension,
modification, waiver, amendment, or rearrangement of any or all of the Guaranteed Indebtedness or any instrument, document, or
agreement evidencing, securing, or otherwise relating to any or all of the Guaranteed Indebtedness; (e) any adjustment, indulgence,
forbearance, waiver, or compromise that may be granted or given by The Lender to the Borrower, any Guarantor, or any other party
ever liable for any or all of the Guaranteed Indebtedness; (f) any neglect, delay, omission, failure, or refusal of The Lender to
take or prosecute any action for the collection of any of the Guaranteed Indebtedness or to foreclose or take or prosecute any
action in connection with any instrument, document, or agreement evidencing, securing, or otherwise relating to any or all of the
Guaranteed Indebtedness; (g) the unenforceability or invalidity of any or all of the Guaranteed Indebtedness or of any instrument,
document, or agreement evidencing, securing, or otherwise relating to any or all of the Guaranteed Indebtedness; (h) any payment by
the Borrower or any other party to The Lender is held to constitute a preference under applicable bankruptcy or insolvency law or if
for any other reason The Lender is required to refund any payment or pay the amount thereof to someone else; (i) the settlement or
compromise of any of the Guaranteed Indebtedness; (j) the non-perfection of any security interest or lien securing any or all of the
Guaranteed Indebtedness; (k) any impairment of any collateral securing any or all of the Guaranteed Indebtedness; (l) the failure of
The Lender to sell any collateral securing any or all of the Guaranteed Indebtedness in a commercially reasonable manner or as
otherwise required by law; (m) any change in the corporate existence, structure, or ownership of the Borrower; or (n) any other
circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or discharge of, the Borrower or any other Guarantor (other
than payment of the Guaranteed Indebtedness).

8.       Each Guarantor represents and warrants to the Lender as follows:

(a)             All representations and warranties in the Credit Agreement relating to it are true and correct as of the date hereof
and on each date the representations and warranties hereunder are restated pursuant to any of the Loan Documents with the same force
and effect as if such representations and warranties had been made on and as of such date except to the extent that such
representations and warranties relate specifically to another date.

(b)               It has, independently and without reliance upon the Lender and based upon such documents and information as it has
deemed appropriate, made its own analysis and decision to enter into the Loan Documents to which it is a party.

(c)               It has adequate means to obtain from the Borrower on a continuing basis information concerning the financial
condition and assets of Borrower and it is not relying upon the Lender to provide (and the Lender shall not have any duty to
provide) any such information to it either now or in the future.

(d)               The value of the consideration received and to be received by each Guarantor as a result of the Borrower's and the
Lender's entering into the Credit Agreement and each Guarantor's executing and delivering this Guaranty Agreement is reasonably
worth at least as much as the liability and obligation of each Guarantor hereunder, and such liability and obligation and the Credit
Agreement have benefited and may reasonably be expected to benefit each Guarantor directly or indirectly.

9.       Each Guarantor covenants and agrees that, as long as the Guaranteed Indebtedness or any part thereof is outstanding or the
Lender has any commitment under the Credit Agreement, it will comply with all covenants set forth in the Credit Agreement
specifically applicable to it.

10.     When an Event of Default exists, the Lender shall have the right to set-off and apply against this Guaranty Agreement or the
Guaranteed Indebtedness or both, at any time and without notice to any Guarantor, any and all deposits (general or special, time or
demand, provisional or final, but excluding any account established by a Guarantor as a fiduciary for another party) or other sums
at any time credited by or owing from the Lender to any Guarantor whether or not the Guaranteed Indebtedness is then due and
irrespective of whether or not the Lender shall have made any demand under this Guaranty Agreement.  The Lender agrees promptly to
notify the Borrower after any such setoff and application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the
validity of such setoff and application.  The rights and remedies of the Lender hereunder are in addition to other rights and
remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off) which the Lender may have.

11.      (a)  Each Guarantor hereby 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 Guaranteed Indebtedness 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 Debtor
(hereafter defined) or received, accepted, retained or applied by any Guarantor unless and until the Guaranteed Indebtedness shall
have been paid in full in cash; except that prior to the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, each Debtor shall have
the right to make payments and a Guarantor shall have the right to receive payments on the Subordinated Indebtedness from time to
time as may be determined by the Borrower.  After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, no payments of
principal or interest may be made or given, directly or indirectly, by or on behalf of any Debtor or received, accepted, retained or
applied by any Guarantor unless and until the Guaranteed Indebtedness shall have been paid in full in cash.  If any sums shall be
paid to a Guarantor by any Debtor 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 such Guarantor for the benefit of the Lender and shall forthwith be paid to the
Lender and applied by the Lender against the Guaranteed Indebtedness in accordance with this Guaranty Agreement. For purposes of
this Guaranty Agreement and with respect to a Guarantor, the term "Subordinated Indebtedness" means all indebtedness, liabilities,
and obligations of Borrower or any other Guarantor (the Borrower and such other Guarantor herein the "Debtors") to such Guarantor,
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 such Guarantor.

                  (b)......Each Guarantor agrees that any and all Liens (including any judgment liens), upon any Debtor's assets
securing payment of any Subordinated Indebtedness shall be and remain inferior and subordinate to any and all Liens upon any
Debtor's assets securing payment of the Guaranteed Indebtedness or any part thereof, regardless of whether such Liens in favor of a
Guarantor or the Lender presently exist or are hereafter created or attached.  Without the prior written consent of the Lender, no
Guarantor shall (i) file suit against any Debtor or exercise or enforce any other creditor's right it may have against any Debtor,
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 Debtor to such Guarantor or any Liens held by such Guarantor on assets of
any Debtor.

                  (c)......In the event of any receivership, bankruptcy, reorganization, rearrangement, debtor's relief, or other
insolvency proceeding involving any Debtor as debtor, the Lender 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 Guaranteed Indebtedness has been paid in full in cash.  The
Lender may apply any such dividends, distributions, and payments against the Guaranteed Indebtedness in accordance with the Credit
Agreement.

                 (d)......Each Guarantor 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
Guaranty Agreement.

12.      Except for modifications made pursuant to the execution and delivery of a Subsidiary Joinder Agreement (which needs to be
signed only by the Subsidiary party thereto), no amendment or waiver of any provision of this Guaranty Agreement or consent to any
departure by any Guarantor therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Required
Lenders except as otherwise provided in the Credit Agreement.  No failure on the part of the Lender to exercise, and no delay in
exercising, any right, power, or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of
any right, power, or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power,
or privilege.  The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

13.      To the extent permitted by law, any acknowledgment or new promise, whether by payment of principal or interest or otherwise
and whether by the Borrower or others (including any Guarantor), with respect to any of the Guaranteed Indebtedness shall, if the
statute of limitations in favor of a Guarantor against the Lender shall have commenced to run, toll the running of such statute of
limitations and, if the period of such statute of limitations shall have expired, prevent the operation of such statute of
limitations.

14.      This Guaranty Agreement is for the benefit of the Lender and its successors and assigns, and in the event of an assignment
of the Guaranteed Indebtedness, or any part thereof, the rights and benefits hereunder, to the extent applicable to the indebtedness
so assigned, may be transferred with such indebtedness.  This Guaranty Agreement is binding not only on each Guarantor, but on each
Guarantor's successors and assigns.

15.      Each Guarantor recognizes that the Lender is relying upon this Guaranty Agreement and the undertakings of each Guarantor
hereunder and under the other Loan Documents to which each is a party in making extensions of credit to the Borrower under the
Credit Agreement and further recognizes that the execution and delivery of this Guaranty Agreement and the other Loan Documents to
which each Guarantor is a party is a material inducement to the Lender in entering into the Credit Agreement and extending credit
thereunder.  Each Guarantor hereby acknowledges that there are no conditions to the full effectiveness of this Guaranty Agreement or
any other Loan Document to which it is a party.

16.      Any notice or demand to any Guarantor under or in connection with this Guaranty Agreement or any other Loan Document to
which it is a party shall be deemed effective if given to the Guarantor, care of the Borrower in accordance with the notice
provisions in the Credit Agreement.

17.     The Guarantors shall, jointly and severally, pay on demand all reasonable attorneys' fees and all other reasonable costs and
expenses incurred by the Lender in connection with the administration, enforcement, or collection of this Guaranty Agreement.

18.      Except as otherwise specifically provided in the Credit Agreement, each Guarantor hereby waives promptness, diligence,
notice of any default under the Guaranteed Indebtedness, demand of payment, notice of acceptance of this Guaranty Agreement,
presentment, notice of protest, notice of dishonor, notice of the incurring by the Borrower of additional indebtedness, and all
other notices and demands with respect to the Guaranteed Indebtedness and this Guaranty Agreement.

19.      The Credit Agreement, and all of the terms thereof, are incorporated herein by reference, the same as if stated verbatim
herein, and each Guarantor agrees that the Lender may exercise any and all rights granted to it under the Credit Agreement and the
other Loan Documents without affecting the validity or enforceability of this Guaranty Agreement.

20.      THIS GUARANTY AGREEMENT EMBODIES THE FINAL, ENTIRE AGREEMENT OF EACH GUARANTOR AND THE LENDER WITH RESPECT TO EACH
GUARANTOR'S GUARANTY OF THE GUARANTEED INDEBTEDNESS AND SUPERSEDES ANY AND ALL PRIOR COMMITMENTS, AGREEMENTS, REPRESENTATIONS, AND
UNDERSTANDINGS, WHETHER WRITTEN OR ORAL, RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF.  THIS GUARANTY AGREEMENT IS INTENDED BY EACH
GUARANTOR AND THE LENDER AS A FINAL AND COMPLETE EXPRESSION OF THE TERMS OF THE GUARANTY AGREEMENT, AND NO COURSE OF DEALING AMONG
ANY GUARANTOR AND THE LENDER, NO COURSE OF PERFORMANCE, NO TRADE PRACTICES, AND NO EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT
ORAL AGREEMENTS OR DISCUSSIONS OR OTHER EXTRINSIC EVIDENCE OF ANY NATURE SHALL BE USED TO CONTRADICT, VARY, SUPPLEMENT OR MODIFY ANY
TERM OF THIS GUARANTY AGREEMENT.  THERE ARE NO ORAL AGREEMENTS AMONG ANY GUARANTOR AND THE LENDER.

21.      This Guaranty Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Texas and
applicable laws of the United States of America. EACH GUARANTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY 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 GUARANTORS
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 GUARANTORS 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 GUARANTY AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT SHALL AFFECT ANY RIGHT THAT THE
LENDER MAY OTHERWISE HAVE TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AGAINST A
GUARANTOR OR ITS PROPERTIES IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION. Each Guarantor 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 Guaranty Agreement or any other Loan Document in any court referred to
in this paragraph 21.  Each of the Guarantors 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.

22.      EACH GUARANTOR 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 GUARANTY AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE
TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY).  EACH GUARANTOR (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.

         EXECUTED as of the 21st day of September, 2001.

         This SUBSIDIARY JOINDER AGREEMENT (the "Agreement") dated as of ____________________, ____ is executed by the undersigned

         Re:     Forward Share Purchase Transactions (Chase Reference Nos. 1364/402223A, 1388/402408A and 402639A, collectively, the
                 "Forward Transactions")

Ladies and Gentlemen:

         The purpose of this letter agreement (the "Termination Agreement") is to set forth the terms of the termination of the
Forward Transactions entered into between The Chase Manhattan Bank ("Chase") and Acxiom Corporation ("Acxiom").

         In consideration of (i) the payment by Acxiom to Chase of $[         ] in immediately available funds on the date hereof
(representing the aggregate Notional Amount under the Forward Transactions of $64,168,598 plus accrued interest of $[  ]) and (ii)
the delivery by Chase (or an affiliate thereof) to Acxiom of 3,739,900 Shares (as such number may adjusted pursuant to the Forward
Transactions) three Exchange Business Days after the date hereof, the parties hereto agree that, effective as of the date hereof,
each of the Forward Transactions shall be terminated and neither party shall have any obligation to the other party thereunder;
provided, however, that the provisions of Section 8.05 of each of the Forward Transactions shall survive the termination of the
Forward Transactions hereunder. Terms used but not defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to such terms under the Forward
Transactions.

         Each of Acxiom and Chase represents and warrants that the execution, delivery and performance of this Termination Agreement
has been duly and validly authorized by all necessary action, corporate or otherwise, on the part of it.

         This Termination Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York
applicable to agreements made and to be performed entirely within such State (without regard to the conflicts of laws provisions
therein).

         Please confirm that you are in agreement with the above by signing and faxing  this letter to Steven Shipley at the address
specified on the letterhead.

                                                     Yours sincerely,

                                                     THE CHASE MANHATTAN BANK
