See accompanying notes to financial statements. TREDEGAR INDUSTRIES, INC. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) 1. In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Tredegar Industries, Inc. and Subsidiaries ("Tredegar") contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly, in all material respects, Tredegar's consolidated financial position as of September 30, 1995, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 and 1994. All such adjustments are deemed to be of a normal recurring nature. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in Tredegar's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1994. The results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 1995, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. 2. During the third quarter, Tredegar announced that it is exploring the sale of Tredegar Molded Products Company ("Molded Products") and Brudi, Inc. ("Brudi"). Molded Products and Brudi had net assets of approximately $35 million and $27 million at September 30, 1995, respectively. Combined net sales, ongoing operating profit (loss) and unusual items for Molded Products and Brudi for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 1995 and 1994, and the year ended December 31, 1994, are as follows: (In Thousands) Third Quarter Ended Nine Months Ended Year Ended Sept. 30 Sept. 30 Dec. 31 --------------- ---------------- ------------ 1995 1994 1995 1994 1994 ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- Combined net sales ........ $27,856 $ 28,552 $89,460 $ 79,261 $ 105,470 Combined ongoing operating profit (loss) 604 (572) 2,411 (2,104) (2,840) Combined unusual items (see pages 13-14) . -- (6,973) -- (6,973) (6,973) Tredegar is reporting its former Energy segment, which was divested in 1994, as discontinued operations. 3. On September 7, 1995, Tredegar replaced its two revolving credit facilities dated August 18 and 19, 1994, with one new, 5-year facility that permits borrowings of up to $275 million (no amounts borrowed at September 30, 1995). The new facility provides for interest to be charged at a base rate (generally the London Interbank Offered Rate) plus a spread that is dependent on Tredegar's quarterly debt-to-total capitalization ratio. A facility fee is also charged on the $275 million commitment amount. The spread and facility fee charged at various debt-to-total capitalization levels are as follows: Debt-to-Total Capitalization Ratio (Basis Points) Spread Facility Fee -------- ------------- Less than or equal to 35% ......... 17.50 12.50 Greater than 35% and less than or equal to 50% ............ 25.00 15.00 Greater than 50% .................. 31.25 18.75 In addition, a utilization fee of 10 basis points is charged on the outstanding principal amount when more than $137.5 million is borrowed under the agreement. The new agreement contains restrictions, among others, on the payment of cash dividends and the maximum debt-to-total capitalization ratio permitted (65% through September 30, 1996, and 60% thereafter). At September 30, 1995, $58.4 million was available for cash dividend payments and $275 million was available to borrow under the 65% debt-to-total capitalization ratio restriction. 4. On April 11, 1995, Tredegar's Board of Directors authorized a "Dutch Auction" tender offer for up to one million shares of the company's common stock at a price range of $20 to $23 per share. The offer expired on May 15, 1995, and 642,797 shares were tendered and purchased by Tredegar for approximately $15 million or $23 per share. Between October 30 and November 7, 1995, Tredegar purchased an additional 128,000 shares in broker transactions at prices ranging from $28 to $29.625 per share. Under a standing authorization from its board of directors, Tredegar may purchase an additional 1.2 million shares in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions at prices management deems appropriate. In the first quarter of 1995, Tredegar granted stock options to purchase 146,000 shares of Tredegar common stock at prices not less than the fair market value on the date of grant ($17.375 to $18.75) and for a term not to exceed 10 years. Tredegar has historically excluded common stock equivalents (stock options) from its computation of earnings per common share due to their immaterial dilutive effect. Immaterial is defined in this context by Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 15 as dilution of less than 3%. As a result of the tender offer and the increase in Tredegar's stock price during 1995, stock options currently outstanding are dilutive in excess of the threshold set forth in APB Opinion No. 15. Accordingly, shares used to compute earnings (loss) per common and dilutive common equivalent share for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 1995, include common stock equivalents of 353,000 and 267,000 shares, respectively. Fully diluted earnings (loss) per common share is not materially different from the earnings (loss) per common and dilutive common equivalent share presented in the consolidated statements of income. 5. The components of inventories are as follows: (In Thousands) Sept. 30 Dec. 31 1995 1994 ---- ---- Finished goods ........... $ 4,076 $ 4,970 Work-in-process .......... 3,070 5,243 Raw materials ............ 14,555 18,004 Stores, supplies and other 6,724 7,152 ------- ------- Total ................ $28,425 $35,369 ======= ======= 6.

7. Interest payments (net of amount capitalized) for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 and 1994 were $1.9 million and $3.1 million, respectively. Income tax payments (net) for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 and 1994 were $10.3 million and $17.2 million, respectively. Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Results of Operations Third Quarter 1995 Compared with Third Quarter 1994 Net income from continuing operations for the third quarter of 1995 was $6.6 million, or 75 cents per share, compared with a loss of $278,000, or 2 cents per share, in 1994. Unusual items in 1995 affecting the comparability of operating results include a gain of $728,000 ($451,000 or 5 cents per share after income taxes) on the sale of shares in Regal Cinema, Inc. Unusual items in 1994 include a charge of $4.9 million ($3.1 million or 29 cents per share after income tax benefits) for the write-off of certain goodwill in Molded Products, and a charge of $2.1 million ($1.3 million or 12 cents per share after income tax benefits) for the shutdown of the Molded Products plant in Alsip, Illinois. Excluding unusual items, third-quarter 1995 net income from continuing operations was $6.2 million, or 70 cents per share, compared with $4.1 million, or 39 cents per share, in 1994. The increase was due to continued strength in Film Products and Aluminum Extrusions, improved results in Brudi and APPX, and accretion in earnings per share due to stock repurchases. Third-quarter net sales from continuing operations increased 10% in 1995 due primarily to higher volume and selling prices in Film Products. Higher selling prices in both Film Products and Aluminum Extrusions reflect higher raw material costs. The gross profit margin increased slightly to 16.5% from 16.4% in 1994. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased 11.4% in 1995 primarily due to reductions at APPX and Molded Products, lower bad debt expenses and commissions at Aluminum Extrusions, lower corporate services costs and lower pension expense for salaried employees, partially offset by selling, general and administrative expenses related to the Argentina films business acquired in the first quarter of 1995 and a $200,000 charge associated with stock appreciation rights. As a percentage of sales, selling, general and administrative expenses declined to 7.2% in 1995 from 8.9% a year earlier. Research and development expenses increased 22.5% compared with 1994 due to higher spending at Film Products, partially offset by the curtailment of product development spending at APPX. Interest expense increased slightly due to the write-off of deferred charges totaling $110,000 associated with revolving credit facilities refinanced in the third quarter of 1995 (see Note 3 of the Notes to the Consolidated Interim Financial Statements on page 6). The average interest rate on debt outstanding during the third quarter was 7.1%, compared with 6.6% in 1994. Interest expense of $68,000 was allocated to discontinued energy operations in the third quarter of 1994. The effective tax rate for continuing operations, excluding unusual items, decreased to 37.1% in 1995, compared with 37.7% in 1994, primarily due to a lower effective state income tax rate. Nine Months 1995 Compared with Nine Months 1994 Net income from continuing operations for the first nine months of 1995 was $17.1 million, or $1.91 per share, compared with a loss of $2.3 million, or 21 cents per share, in 1994. Unusual items in 1995 include a third-quarter gain of $728,000 ($451,000 after income taxes or 5 cents per share) on the sale of Regal Cinema shares, a first-quarter charge of $2.4 million ($1.6 million after income tax benefits or 17 cents per share) for the restructuring of APPX and a first-quarter recovery of $1.8 million ($1.1 million after income taxes or 12 cents per share) related to a final judgment in a Film Products product liability lawsuit. Unusual items in 1994 include a third-quarter charge of $4.9 million ($3.1 million after income tax benefits or 29 cents per share) for the write-off of certain goodwill in Molded Products, a third-quarter charge of $2.1 million ($1.3 million after income tax benefits or 12 cents per share) related to the shutdown of a Molded Products plant and a first-quarter charge of $9.5 million ($7.6 million after income tax benefits or 71 cents per share) for the write-off of goodwill and other intangibles in APPX. Excluding unusual items, year-to-date net income from continuing operations was $17.2 million, or $1.91 per share, compared with $9.8 million, or 91 cents per share, in 1994. The increase was due to continued strength in Film Products and Aluminum Extrusions, improved results in Molded Products and APPX, and accretion in earnings per share due to stock repurchases. Net sales for the nine-month period increased 19% due primarily to higher selling prices, reflecting higher raw material costs. The gross profit margin increased slightly to 16.2% from 16.1%. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 1% in 1995 primarily due to the Argentina films business acquired in the first quarter of 1995 and a $700,000 charge associated with stock appreciation rights, partially offset by reductions at APPX and Molded Products, lower bad debt expenses and commissions at Aluminum Extrusions, lower corporate services costs and lower pension expense for salaried employees. As a percentage of sales, selling, general and administrative expenses declined to 8% in 1995, compared with 9.4% a year ago. Research and development expenses increased 8.3% compared with 1994 due to higher spending at Film Products and Molecumetics, partially offset by the curtailment of product development spending at APPX. Interest expense for continuing operations decreased 23% due to lower average debt levels. The average interest rate on debt outstanding was 7.1% in 1995 (primarily fixed-rate debt) and 6% in 1994 (a mix of fixedand floating-rate debt). Interest expense of $337,000 was allocated to discontinued energy operations in 1994. The effective tax rate for continuing operations, excluding special items, decreased to 37.1% for the first nine months of 1995, compared with 38.5% for the same period a year earlier. The decrease was due mainly to a lower effective state income tax rate. Segment Results The following tables present Tredegar's net sales and operating profit by segment for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 1995 and 1994.

Plastics segment unusual items in 1994 consist of the write-off in the third quarter of certain Molded Products goodwill ($4.9 million) and costs related to the closing of a Molded Products plant ($2.1 million). (b) Technology segment unusual items consist of a charge for the restructuring of APPX in the first quarter of 1995, a gain on the sale of Regal Cinema shares in the third quarter of 1995 and a write-off of goodwill and intangibles in APPX in the first quarter of 1994. (c) Income from continuing operations, excluding the net effects of unusual items, was $6.2 million, $4.1 million, $17.2 million and $9.8 million for the third quarter ended September 30, 1995 and 1994 and the nine months ended September 30, 1995 and 1994, respectively. See also Note 6 of the Notes to the Consolidated Interim Financial Statements on page 8. (d) In August 1994, Tredegar divested its Elk Horn Coal subsidiary and recognized an after-tax gain of $25.7 million. In the first quarter of 1994, Tredegar recognized certain tax benefits associated with the Elk Horn divestiture of $3.3 million. In February 1994, Tredegar sold its remaining oil and gas properties and recognized an after-tax gain of $3.9 million. Tredegar Film Products sales increased for the quarter and year-to-date due primarily to higher average selling prices resulting from higher raw material costs. Higher volume from U.S. disposables contributed to the improvement in net sales during the third quarter while volume from foreign operations increased during both periods. Operating profit improved for the third quarter due primarily to higher domestic backsheet film volume and higher volume from European operations, but was flat for the nine months due primarily to lower margins in specialty films. Third-quarter and year-to-date operating profits in Molded Products increased due to higher sales volume, flat conversion costs and lower selling, general and administrative expenses, partially offset by start-up costs at the new Graham, North Carolina, facility. At Fiberlux, sales were down slightly for the quarter but increased for the nine months. Operating profit declined for both the quarter and year-to-date periods. Metal Products sales increased 5% for the third quarter and 17% for the nine months due primarily to higher prices in Aluminum Extrusions, reflecting higher aluminum costs. Volume declined in Aluminum Extrusions for both the quarter and nine months while operating profit increased for the periods due to ongoing cost and quality improvements. Economic conditions in key construction markets and declining aluminum prices continue to put pressure on selling prices and margins. Sales and operating profit improved at Brudi for the quarter and nine months due primarily to higher sales and lower bad debt expense. Ongoing Technology segment results for the third quarter and nine months showed lower losses due to the restructuring of APPX in the first quarter of 1995, partially offset by higher research and development expenses at Molecumetics. The year-to-date results were also adversely affected by a $329,000 medical technology investment writedown. Liquidity and Capital Resources Tredegar's total assets at September 30, 1995, were $319.4 million, an increase of $1 million over December 31, 1994. The increase is due primarily to the acquisition of a films business in Argentina and the deferral of costs for razing the films plant in Fremont, California, in anticipation of the sale of the land. Inventories declined from strong domestic demand for backsheet and permeable films. Depreciation exceeded capital expenditures by $1.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1995. Total liabilities declined slightly while the ratio of current assets to current liabilities was 1.8 to 1 at September 30, 1995, compared to 1.9 to 1 at December 31, 1994. Debt decreased from $38 million at December 31, 1994, to $35 million at September 30, 1995, and consisted of a $35 million, 7.2% note maturing in June 2003 (annual principal payments of $5 million will begin in 1997). On September 7, 1995, Tredegar replaced its two revolving credit facilities dated August 18 and 19, 1994, with one new, 5-year facility that permits borrowings of up to $275 million (no amounts borrowed at September 30, 1995 - see Note 3 of the Notes to the Consolidated Interim Financial Statements on page 6). Net debt (debt less cash and cash equivalents) as a percentage of net capitalization was 12% at September 30, 1995, compared with 14.4% at December 31, 1994. On May 15, 1995, Tredegar completed a "Dutch Auction" tender offer, repurchasing 642,797 shares of its common stock for approximately $15 million or $23 per share. Between October 30 and November 7, 1995, Tredegar purchased an additional 128,000 shares in broker transactions at prices ranging from $28 to $29.625 per share. Under a standing authorization from its board of directors, Tredegar may purchase an additional 1.2 million shares in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions at prices management deems appropriate. Net cash provided by continuing operating activities in excess of capital expenditures and dividends increased to $20.8 million in 1995 from $17 million in 1994 due primarily to improved operating results. This excess cash combined with the $9 million cash and cash equivalents balance at December 31, 1994, and cash from property disposals and other sources ($3.2 million), was used to fund the films acquisition in Argentina ($3.6 million), repay amounts borrowed to fund the Dutch Auction tender offer ($15 million), and repay other borrowings ($3 million), leaving $11.4 million of cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 1995.

(a) Each Standby Loan shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans made by the Banks ratably in accordance with their Commit- ments; provided, however, that the failure of any Bank to make any Standby Loan shall not in itself relieve any other Bank of its obligation to lend hereunder (it being under- stood, however, that no Bank shall be responsible for the failure of any other Bank to make any Loan required to be made by such other Bank). Standby Loans comprising each Borrowing shall be in an aggregate principal amount which is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000 (or an aggregate principal amount equal to the remaining balance of the available Commitments). (b) Each Standby Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of Eurodollar Standby Loans, CD Loans or ABR Loans, as the Company may request pursuant to Section 2.03.

Borrowings of more than one Type may be outstanding at the same time; provided, however, that the Company shall not be entitled to request any Borrowing which, if made, would result in an aggregate of more than ten separate Loans of any Bank being outstanding hereunder at any one time. For purposes of the foregoing, Loans having different Interest Periods, regardless of whether they commence on the same date, shall be considered separate Loans. (c) Subject to Section 2.04, each Bank shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent in New York, New York, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, and the Administrative Agent shall by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, credit the amounts so received to the general deposit account of the Company with the Administrative Agent or, if a Borrowing shall not occur on such date because any condition precedent herein specified shall not have been met, return the amounts so received to the respective Banks. Subject to Section 2.04, Standby Loans shall be made by the Banks pro rata in accordance with Section 2.15. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Bank prior to the date of any Borrowing that such Bank will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Bank's portion of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Bank has made such portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with this paragraph (c) and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Company on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Bank shall not have made such portion available to the Administrative Agent, such Bank and the Company (without prejudice to the Company's rights against the defaulting Bank) severally agree to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Company until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at (i) in the case of the Company, the interest rate applicable at the time to the Loans comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Bank, the Federal Funds Effective Rate. If such Bank shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount shall constitute such Bank's Loan as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement. (d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Company shall not be entitled to request any Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Maturity Date. SECTION 2.03. Standby Borrowing Procedure. In order to request a Standby Borrowing, the Company shall give written or telex notice (or telephone notice promptly confirmed in writing or by telex) to the Administrative Agent in the form of Exhibit A (a) in the case of a Eurodollar Standby Borrowing, not later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, three Business Days before a proposed borrowing, (b) in the case of a CD Borrowing, not later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, two Business Days before a proposed borrowing and (c) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 10:30 a.m., New York City time, on the day of a proposed borrowing. Such notice shall be irrevocable and shall in each case refer to this Agreement and specify (i) whether the Borrowing then being requested is to be a Eurodollar Standby Borrowing, a CD Borrowing or an ABR Borrowing; (ii) the date of such Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day) and the amount thereof; and (iii) if such Borrowing is to be a Eurodollar Standby Borrowing or CD Borrowing, the Interest Period with respect thereto. If no election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified in any such notice, then the requested Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing. If no Interest Period with respect to any Eurodollar Borrowing or CD Borrowing is specified in any such notice, then the Company shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month's duration, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, or 30 days' duration, in the case of a CD Borrowing. If the Company shall not have given notice in accordance with this Section 2.03 of its election to refinance a Standby Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing, then the Company shall (unless such Borrowing is repaid at the end of such Interest Period) be deemed to have given notice of an election to refinance such Borrowing with an ABR Borrowing. The Administrative Agent shall promptly advise the Banks of any notice given pursuant to this Section 2.03 and of each Bank's portion of the requested Borrowing. SECTION 2.04. Refinancings. The Company may refinance all or any part of any Borrowing with a Borrowing of the same or a different Type made pursuant to Section 2.03, subject to the conditions and limitations set forth herein and elsewhere in this Agreement. Any Borrowing or part thereof so refinanced shall be deemed to be repaid in accordance with Section 2.06 with the proceeds of a new Borrowing hereunder and the proceeds of the new Borrowing, to the extent they do not exceed the principal amount of the Borrowing being refinanced, shall not be paid by the Banks to the Administrative Agent or by the Administrative Agent to the Company pursuant to Section 2.02(c). SECTION 2.05. Fees. (a) The Company agrees to pay to each Bank, through the Administrative Agent, on each March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31, commencing September 30, 1995, and on the date on which the Commitment of such Bank shall be terminated as provided herein, a facility fee (a "Facility Fee") equal to the Facility Fee Percentage of the daily average amount of the Commitment of such Bank, whether used or unused, during the preceding quarter (or other period commencing with the date of this Agreement or ending with the Maturity Date or any date on which the Commitment of such Bank shall be terminated). All Facility Fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a 360 day year. The Facility Fee due to each Bank shall commence to accrue on the Closing Date and shall cease to accrue on the earlier of the Maturity Date and the termination of the Commitment of such Bank as provided herein. (b) The Company agrees to pay the Administrative Agent, for its own account, the fees set forth in the Engagement Letter dated June 28, 1995, among the Administrative Agent, Chemical Securities Inc. and the Company at the times and in the amounts set forth therein. (c) The Company agrees to pay to each Bank, through the Administrative Agent, on each March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31, commencing September 30, 1995, and on each date on which the Commitment of such Bank shall be terminated as provided herein, a utilization fee (the "Utilization Fee") equal to .10% per annum on the outstanding principal amount of the Loans of such Bank for each day during the preceding quarter or such shorter period on which the outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Loans exceeds 50% of the Total Commitment. All Utilization Fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days. (d) All Fees shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent for distribution, if and as appropriate, among the Banks. Once paid, none of the Fees shall be refundable under any circumstances. SECTION 2.06. Repayment of Loans. (a) The Company agrees to pay the outstanding principal balance of each Standby Loan on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan and on the Maturity Date. Each Standby Loan shall bear interest from the date of such Borrowing on the outstanding principal balance thereof as set forth in Section 2.07. (b) Each Bank shall, and is hereby authorized by the Company to maintain, in accordance with its usual practice, records evidencing the indebtedness of the Company to such Bank hereunder from time to time, including the date, amount and Type of and the Interest Period applicable to each Loan made by such Bank from time to time and the amounts of principal and interest paid to such Bank from time to time in respect of each such Loan. (c) The entries made in the records maintained pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 2.06 and in the Register maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 9.04(d) shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of the Company to which such entries relate; provided, however, that the failure of any Bank or the Administrative Agent to maintain or to make any entry in such records or the Register, as applicable, or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Company to repay any Standby Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. SECTION 2.07. Interest on Loans. (a) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.08, the Loans comprising each Eurodollar Borrowing shall bear interest (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days) at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Spread in effect at such time. (b) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.08, the Loans comprising each CD Borrowing shall bear interest (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days) at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted CD Rate for the Interest Period in effect plus the Applicable Spread in effect at such time. (c) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.08, the Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing shall bear interest (if the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate, computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, or if the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Base CD Rate or the Federal Funds Effective Rate, computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days) at a rate per annum equal to the Alternate Base Rate. (d) Interest on each Loan shall be payable on the Interest Payment Dates applicable to such Loan except as otherwise provided in this Agreement. The applicable Adjusted LIBO Rate, Adjusted CD Rate or Alternate Base Rate for each Interest Period or day within an Interest Period, as the case may be, shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error. SECTION 2.08. Default Interest. If the Company shall default in the payment of the principal of or interest on any Loan or any other amount becoming due hereunder, by acceleration or otherwise, the Company shall on demand from time to time pay interest, to the extent permitted by law, on such defaulted amount up to (but not including) the date of actual payment (after as well as before judgment) at a rate per annum (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days) equal to the Alternate Base Rate plus 2%. SECTION 2.09. Alternate Rate of Interest. (a) In the event, and on each occasion, that on the day two Business Days prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing the Administrative Agent shall have determined that dollar deposits in the principal amounts of the Loans comprising such Borrowing are not generally available in the London interbank market, or that the rates at which such dollar deposits are being offered will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to any Bank of making or maintaining its Eurodollar Standby Loan during such Interest Period, or that reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate, the Administrative Agent shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, give written or telex notice of such determination to the Company and the Banks. In the event of any such determination, until the Administrative Agent shall have advised the Company and the Banks that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, any request by the Company for a Eurodollar Standby Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.03 shall be deemed to be a request for an ABR Borrowing. Each determination by the Administrative Agent hereunder shall be conclusive absent manifest error. (b) In the event, and on each occasion, that on or before the day on which the Adjusted CD Rate for a CD Borrowing is to be determined the Administrative Agent shall have determined that such Adjusted CD Rate cannot be determined for any reason, including the inability of the Agent to obtain sufficient bids in accordance with the terms of the definition of Fixed CD Rate, or the Agent shall determine that the Adjusted CD Rate for such CD Borrowing will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to any Bank of making or maintaining its CD Loan during such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, give written or telex notice of such determination to the Company and the Banks. In the event of any such determination, any request by the Company for a CD Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.03 shall, until the Administrative Agent shall have advised the Company and the Banks that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, be deemed to be a request for an ABR Borrowing. Each determination by the Administrative Agent hereunder shall be conclusive absent manifest error. SECTION 2.10. Termination, Reduction and Exten- sion of Commitments. (a) The Commitments shall be auto- matically terminated on the Maturity Date. (b) Upon at least three Business Days' prior irrevocable written or telex notice to the Administrative Agent, the Company may at any time in whole permanently terminate, or from time to time in part permanently reduce, the Commitments; provided, however, that each partial reduction of the Commitments shall be in an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and in a minimum principal amount of $10,000,000. (c) Each reduction in the Commitments hereunder shall be made ratably among the Banks in accordance with their respective applicable Commitments. The Company shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Banks, on the date of each termination or reduction, the Facility Fees on the amount of the Commitments so terminated or reduced accrued through the date of such termination or reduction. (d) Not later than the date 45 days prior to (i) the first anniversary of the date hereof or (ii) any anniversary of the date hereof during the 45 days prior to which the Commitments shall have been extended as provided in this paragraph (d), the Company may deliver to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly transmit to each Bank) a notice requesting that the Commitments be extended to the first anniversary of the Maturity Date at the time in effect. Within 30 days after its receipt of any such notice, each Bank shall notify the Administrative Agent of its willingness or unwillingness so to extend its Commitment. In the event each Bank shall be willing to extend its Commitment, the Administrative Agent shall so notify the Company and each Bank and the Maturity Date shall without further act be extended to the first anniversary of the date which shall theretofore have been the Maturity Date. SECTION 2.11. Prepayment. (a) The Company shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Standby Borrowing, in whole or in part, upon at least three Business Days' prior written or telex notice (or telephone notice promptly confirmed by written or telex notice) to the Administrative Agent; provided, however, that each partial prepayment shall be in an amount which is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000. (b) On the date of any termination or reduction of the Commitments pursuant to Section 2.10, the Company shall pay or prepay so much of the Standby Borrowings as shall be necessary in order that the aggregate principal amount of the Loans outstanding will not exceed the aggre- gate Commitments after giving effect to such termination or reduction. (c) Each notice of prepayment shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing (or portion thereof) to be prepaid, shall be irrevocable and shall commit the Company to prepay such Borrowing by the amount stated therein on the date stated therein. All prepayments under this Section 2.11 shall be subject to Section 2.14 but otherwise without premium or penalty. All prepayments under this Section 2.11 shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the principal amount being prepaid to the date of payment. SECTION 2.12. Reserve Requirements; Change in Circumstances. (a) Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if after the date of this Agreement any change in applicable law or regulation or in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof (whether or not having the force of law) shall change the basis of taxation of payments to any Bank of the principal of or interest on any Eurodollar Standby Loan or CD Loan made by such Bank or any other fees or amounts payable hereunder (other than changes in respect of taxes imposed on the overall net income of such Bank by the jurisdiction in which such Bank has its principal office or by any political subdivision or taxing authority therein), shall 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, such Bank (except any reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate), or shall impose on such Bank or the London interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or any Eurodollar Standby Loan or CD Loan made by such Bank, and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Bank of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Standby Loan or CD Loan or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise) in respect thereof by an amount deemed by such Bank to be material, then the Company shall pay to such Bank upon demand such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Bank for such additional cost incurred or reduction suffered. (b) If any Bank shall have determined that the applicability of any law, rule, regulation or guideline adopted pursuant to or arising out of the July 1988 report of the Basle Committee on Banking Regulations and Supervi- sory Practices entitled "International Convergence of Capital Measurement and Capital Standards", or the adoption after the date hereof of any other law, rule, regulation or guideline regarding capital adequacy, or any change in any of the foregoing or in the interpretation or administration of any of the foregoing by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the inter- pretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Bank (or any lending office of such Bank) or any Bank's holding company with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Bank's capital or on the capital of such Bank's holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by such Bank pursuant hereto to a level below that which such Bank or such Bank's holding company could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Bank's policies and the policies of such Bank's holding company with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Bank to be material, then from time to time the Company shall pay to such Bank such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Bank or such Bank's holding company for any such reduction suffered. (c) A certificate of a Bank setting forth such amount or amounts as shall be necessary to compensate such Bank (or participating banks or other entities pursuant to Section 9.04) as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) above, as the case may be, shall be delivered to the Company and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Company shall pay each Bank the amount shown as due on any such certificate delivered by it within 10 days after its receipt of the same. (d) Failure on the part of any Bank to demand compensation for any increased costs or reduction in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital with respect to any period shall not constitute a waiver of such Bank's right with respect to such period or any other period. The protection of this Section shall be available to each Bank regardless of any possible contention of invalidity or inapplicability of the law, rule, regulation, guideline or other change or condition which shall have been imposed. SECTION 2.13. Change in Legality. (a) Notwith- standing any other provision herein, if any change in any law or regulation or in the interpretation thereof by any Governmental Authority charged with the administration or interpretation thereof shall make it unlawful for any Bank to make or maintain any Eurodollar Standby Loan or to give effect to its obligations as contemplated hereby with respect to any Eurodollar Standby Loan, then, by written notice to the Company and to the Administrative Agent, such Bank may: (i) declare that Eurodollar Standby Loans will not thereafter be made by such Bank hereunder, whereupon any request by the Company for a Eurodollar Standby Borrowing shall, as to such Bank only, be deemed a request for an ABR Loan unless such declaration shall be subsequently withdrawn; and (ii) require that all outstanding Eurodollar Standby Loans made by it be converted to ABR Loans, in which event all such Eurodollar Standby Loans shall be automatically converted to ABR Loans as of the effective date of such notice as provided in paragraph (b) below. In the event any Bank shall exercise its rights under (i) or (ii) above, all payments and prepayments of principal which would otherwise have been applied to repay the Eurodollar Standby Loans that would have been made by such Bank or the converted Eurodollar Standby Loans of such Bank shall instead be applied to repay the ABR Loans made by such Bank in lieu of, or resulting from the conversion of, such Eurodollar Standby Loans. (b) For purposes of this Section 2.13, a notice to the Company by any Bank shall be effective as to each Eurodollar Standby Loan, if lawful, on the last day of the Interest Period currently applicable to such Eurodollar Standby Loan; in all other cases such notice shall be effective on the date of receipt by the Company. SECTION 2.14. Indemnity. The Company shall indemnify each Bank against any loss or expense which such Bank may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) any failure by the Company to fulfill on the date of any Bor- rowing hereunder the applicable conditions set forth in Article IV, (b) any failure by the Company to borrow or to refinance or continue any Loan hereunder after irrevocable notice of such borrowing, refinancing or continuation has been given pursuant to Section 2.03, (c) any payment, prepayment or conversion of a Eurodollar Standby Loan or CD Loan required by any other provision of this Agreement or otherwise made or deemed made on a date other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (d) any default in payment or prepayment of the principal amount of any Loan or any part thereof or interest accrued thereon, as and when due and payable (at the due date thereof, by irrevocable notice of prepayment or otherwise) or (e) the occurrence of any Event of Default, including, in each such case, any loss or reasonable expense sustained or incurred or to be sustained or incurred in liquidating or employing deposits from third parties acquired to effect or maintain such Loan or any part thereof as a Eurodollar Standby Loan or CD Loan. Such loss or reasonable expense shall include an amount equal to the excess, if any, as reasonably determined by such Bank, of (i) its cost of obtaining the funds for the Loan being paid, prepaid, converted or not borrowed (based on the Adjusted LIBO Rate or Adjusted CD Rate, as applicable) for the period from the date of such payment, prepayment, conversion or failure to borrow to the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, the Interest Period for such Loan which would have commenced on the date of such failure) over (ii) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Bank) that would be realized by such Bank in reemploying the funds so paid, prepaid, converted or not borrowed for such period or Interest Period, as the case may be. A certificate of any Bank setting forth any amount or amounts which such Bank is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Company and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. SECTION 2.15. Pro Rata Treatment. Except as required under Sections 2.12 and 2.13, each Standby Borrowing, each payment or prepayment of principal of any Standby Borrowing, each payment of interest on the Standby Loans, each payment of the Facility Fees, each payment of the Utilization Fees, each reduction of the Commitments and each refinancing of any Borrowing with a Standby Borrowing of any Type, shall be allocated pro rata among the Banks in accordance with their respective Commitments (or, if such Commitments shall have expired or been terminated, in accordance with the respective principal amounts of their outstanding Standby Loans). Each Bank agrees that in computing such Bank's portion of any Borrowing to be made hereunder, the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, round each Bank's percentage of such Borrowing to the next higher or lower whole dollar amount. SECTION 2.16. Sharing of Setoffs. Each Bank agrees that if it shall, through the exercise of a right of banker's lien, setoff or counterclaim against the Company, or pursuant to a secured claim under Section 506 of Title 11 of the United States Code or other security or interest arising from, or in lieu of, such secured claim, received by such Bank under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law or otherwise, or by any other means, obtain payment (voluntary or involuntary) in respect of any Loan or Loans as a result of which the unpaid principal portion of its Loans shall be proportionately less than the unpaid principal portion of the Loans of any other Bank, it shall promptly purchase from such other Bank at face value a participation in the Loans of such other Bank, so that the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Loans and partici- pations in Loans held by each Bank shall be in the same proportion to the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Loans then outstanding as the principal amount of its Loans prior to such exercise of banker's lien, setoff or counter- claim or other event was to the principal amount of all Loans outstanding prior to such exercise of banker's lien, setoff or counterclaim or other event; provided, however, that, if any such purchase or purchases or adjustments shall be made pursuant to this Section and the payment giving rise thereto shall thereafter be recovered, such purchase or purchases or adjustments shall be rescinded to the extent of such recovery and the purchase price or prices or adjustment restored without interest. The Company expressly consents to the foregoing arrangements and agrees that any Bank holding a participation in a Loan deemed to have been so purchased may exercise any and all rights of banker's lien, setoff or counterclaim with respect to any and all moneys owing by the Company to such Bank by reason thereof as fully as if such Bank had made a Loan directly to the Company in the amount of such participation. SECTION 2.17. Payments. (a) The Company shall make each payment (including principal of or interest on any Borrowing or any Fees or other amounts) hereunder and under any other Loan Document not later than 12:00 (noon), New York City time, on the date when due in dollars to the Administrative Agent at Agent Bank Services, Attn: Andrew N. Stasiw, 140 East 45th Street, 29th Floor, New York, New York 10017 (Telecopy No. (212)-622-0002), in immediately available funds. (b) Whenever any payment (including principal of or interest on any Borrowing or any Fees or other amounts) hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall become due, or otherwise would occur, on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment may be made on the next succeeding Busi- ness Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of interest or Fees, if appli- cable. SECTION 2.18. Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by the Company hereunder shall be made, in accordance with Section 2.17, free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding taxes imposed on the Administrative Agent's or any Bank's income, and franchise taxes imposed on the Administrative Agent or any Bank, by the United States or any jurisdiction under the laws of which it is organized or any political subdivision thereof (all such nonexcluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as "Taxes"). If the Company shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to the Banks or the Administrative Agent (i) the sum payable shall be increased by the amount necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.18) such Bank or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) shall receive an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Company shall make such deductions and (iii) the Company shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxing authority or other Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. (b) In addition, the Company agrees to pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies which arise from any payment made hereunder or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document (hereinafter referred to as "Other Taxes"). (c) The Company will indemnify each Bank and the Administrative Agent for the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes (including any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 2.18) paid by such Bank or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted by the relevant taxing authority or other Governmental Authority. Such indemnification shall be made within 30 days after the date any Bank or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, makes written demand therefor. If a Bank or the Administrative Agent shall become aware that it is entitled to receive a refund in respect of Taxes or Other Taxes, it shall promptly notify the Company of the availability of such refund and shall, within 30 days after receipt of a request by the Company, apply for such refund at the Company's expense. If any Bank or the Administrative Agent receives a refund in respect of any Taxes or Other Taxes for which such Bank or the Administrative Agent has received payment from the Company hereunder it shall promptly notify the Company of such refund and shall, within 30 days after receipt of a request by the Company (or promptly upon receipt, if the Company has requested application for such refund pursuant hereto), repay such refund to the Company without interest, provided that the Company, upon the request of such Bank or the Administrative Agent, agrees to return such refund (plus penalties, inter- est or other charges) to such Bank or the Administrative Agent in the event such Bank or the Administrative Agent is required to repay such refund. (d) Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Taxes or Other Taxes withheld by the Company in respect of any payment to any Bank or the Administrative Agent, the Company will furnish to the Administrative Agent, at its address referred to in Section 2.17, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof. (e) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement contained herein, the agreements and obli- gations contained in this Section 2.18 shall survive the payment in full of the principal of and interest on all Loans made hereunder. (f) Each Bank which is organized outside the United States shall promptly notify the Company of any change in its funding office and upon written request of the Company shall, prior to the immediately following due date of any payment by the Company hereunder, deliver to the Company such certificates, documents or other evidence, as required by the Code or Treasury Regulations issued pursuant thereto, including Internal Revenue Service Form 4224 and any other certificate or statement of exemption required by Treasury Regulation Section 1.1441-1(a) or Sec- tion 1.1441-6(c) or any subsequent version thereof, properly completed and duly executed by such Bank establishing that such payment is (i) not subject to withholding under the Code because such payment is effectively connected with the conduct by such Bank of a trade or business in the United States or (ii) totally exempt from United States tax under a provision of an applicable tax treaty. Unless the Company and the Administrative Agent have received forms or other documents satisfactory to them indicating that payments hereunder are not subject to United States withholding tax or are subject to such tax at a rate reduced by an applica- ble tax treaty, the Company or the Administrative Agent shall withhold taxes from such payments at the applicable statutory rate in the case of payments to or for any Bank or assignee organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States. (g) Any Bank claiming any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.18 shall use reasonable efforts (consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions) to file any certificate or document requested by the Company or to change the jurisdiction of its applicable lending office if the making of such a filing or change would avoid the need for or reduce the amount of any such additional amounts which may thereafter accrue and would not, in the sole determination of such Bank, be otherwise disadvanta- geous to such Bank.

and in any event with respect to the Company described in paragraph (g) or (h) above, the Commitments shall automatically terminate and the principal of the Loans then outstanding, together with accrued interest thereon and any unpaid accrued Fees and all other liabilities of the Company accrued hereunder and under any other Loan Document, shall automatically become due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or any other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Company, anything contained herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding. VIII. The Administrative Agent In order to expedite the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, Chemical Bank is hereby appointed to act as sole Administrative Agent on behalf of the Banks. Each of the Banks, and each subsequent Bank, hereby irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on behalf of such Bank or holder and to exercise such powers as are specifically delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms and provisions hereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Administrative Agent is hereby expressly authorized by the Banks, without hereby limiting any implied authority, (a) to receive on behalf of the Banks all payments of principal of and interest on the Loans and all other amounts due to the Banks hereunder, and promptly to distribute to each Bank its proper share of each payment so received; (b) to give notice on behalf of each of the Banks to the Company of any Event of Default specified in this Agreement of which the Administrative Agent has actual knowledge acquired in connection with its agency hereunder; and (c) to distribute to each Bank copies of all notices, financial statements and other materials delivered by the Company pursuant to this Agreement as received by the Administrative Agent. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, employees or administrative agents shall be liable as such for any action taken or omitted by any of them except for its or his own gross negligence or wilful misconduct, or be responsible for any statement, warranty or representation herein or the contents of any document delivered in connection herewith, or be required to ascertain or to make any inquiry concerning the performance or observance by the Company of any of the terms, conditions, covenants or agreements contained in any Loan Document. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible to the Banks or any subsequent Bank for the due execution, genuineness, validity, enforceability or effectiveness of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents or other instruments or agreements. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or refraining from acting, in accordance with written instructions signed by the Required Banks and, except as otherwise specifically provided herein, such instructions and any action or inac- tion pursuant thereto shall be binding on all the Banks and each subsequent Bank. The Administrative Agent shall, in the absence of knowledge to the contrary, be entitled to rely on any instrument or document believed by it in good faith to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by the proper person or persons. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents shall have any responsibility to the Company on account of the failure of or delay in performance or breach by any Bank of any of its obligations hereunder or to any Bank on account of the failure of or delay in performance or breach by any other Bank or the Company of any of their respective obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document or in connection herewith or therewith. The Administrative Agent may execute any and all duties hereunder by or through administrative agents or employees and shall be entitled to rely upon the advice of legal counsel selected by it with respect to all matters arising hereunder and shall not be liable for any action taken or suffered in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel. The Banks hereby acknowledge that the Administrative Agent shall be under no duty to take any discretionary action permitted to be taken by it pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement unless it shall be requested in writing to do so by the Required Banks. Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent as provided below, the Administrative Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Banks and the Company. Upon any such resignation, the Required Banks shall appoint either NationsBank, N.A. or LTCB Trust Company as successor Administrative Agent and, if such appointment is not accepted by NationsBank, N.A. or LTCB Trust Company, the Required Banks shall have the right to appoint a different successor. If no successor shall have been appointed by the Required Banks and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Banks, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York, having a combined capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000 or an Affiliate of any such bank. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor bank, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. After the Administrative Agent's resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.05 shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as Administrative Agent. With respect to the Loans made by it hereunder, the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity and not as Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers as any other Bank and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with the Company or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not the Administrative Agent. Each Bank agrees (i) to reimburse the Administrative Agent, on demand, in the amount of its pro rata share (based on its Commitment hereunder) of any expenses incurred for the benefit of the Banks by the Administrative Agent, including counsel fees and compensation of administrative agents and employees paid for services rendered on behalf of the Banks, which shall not have been reimbursed by the Company and (ii) to indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent and any of its directors, officers, employees or administrative agents, on demand, in the amount of such pro rata share, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against it in its capacity as the Administrative Agent or any of them in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any action taken or omitted by it or any of them under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, to the extent the same shall not have been reimbursed by the Company; provided that no Bank shall be liable to the Administrative Agent for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of the Administrative Agent or any of its directors, officers, employees or administrative agents. Each Bank acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Bank and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Bank also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Bank and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement or any other Loan Document, any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. Neither NationsBank, N.A. nor LTCB Trust Company shall have any duties or obligations whatsoever under this Agreement or any other document or matter related hereto, other than as a Bank, unless appointed as successor Administrative Agent pursuant to this Article VIII.

(a) Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the successors and (to the extent permitted by Section 9.04) assigns of such party; and all covenants, promises and agreements by or on behalf of the Company, the Administrative Agent or the Banks that are contained in this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns.

(c) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the assigning Bank thereunder and the assignee thereunder shall be deemed to confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) other than the representation and warranty that it is the legal and beneficial owner of the interest being assigned thereby free and clear of any adverse claim, such assigning Bank makes no representation or warranty and assumes no respon- sibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (ii) such assigning Bank makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of the Company or any Subsidiary or the performance or observance by the Company of any of its obligations under this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (iii) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of the most recent financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 5.04 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) such assignee will independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, such assigning Bank or any other Bank and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement; (v) such assignee appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vi) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Bank.

The entries in the Register shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error and the Company, the Administrative Agent and the Banks may treat each person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Bank hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Company and any Bank, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. (e) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assign- ment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Bank and an assignee, the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) above and, if required, the written consent of the Company to such assignment, the Administrative Agent shall (subject to the consent of the Administrative Agent to such assignment, if required), (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance, (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt notice thereof to the Banks. (f) Each Bank may without the consent of the Company or the Administrative Agent sell participations to one or more banks or other entities in all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided, however, that (i) such Bank's obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Bank shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) the participating banks or other entities shall be entitled to the benefit of the cost protection provisions contained in Sections 2.12 and 2.14 to the same extent as if they were Banks and (iv) the Company, the Administrative Agent and the other Banks shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Bank in connection with such Bank's rights and obliga- tions under this Agreement, and such Bank shall retain the sole right to enforce the obligations of the Company relat- ing to the Loans and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement (other than amendments, modifications or waivers with respect to any fees payable hereunder or the amount of principal of or the rate at which interest is payable on the Loans, or the dates fixed for payments of principal of or interest on the Loans). (g) Any Bank or participant may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 9.04, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or partic- ipant any information relating to the Company furnished to such Bank by or on behalf of the Company; provided that, prior to any such disclosure, each such assignee or partic- ipant or proposed assignee or participant shall execute an agreement whereby such assignee or participant shall agree (subject to customary exceptions) to preserve the confiden- tiality of any confidential information relating to the Company received from such Bank. (h) The Company shall not assign or delegate any of its respective rights and duties hereunder. SECTION 9.05. Expenses; Indemnity. (a) The Company agrees to pay all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including those set forth in the Engagement Letter dated June 28, 1995, among the Administrative Agent, Chemical Securities Inc. and the Company) or in connection with any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions hereby contemplated shall be consummated) or incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Bank in connection with the enforcement or protection of their rights in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or in connection with the Loans made hereunder, including the fees and disbursements of Cravath, Swaine & Moore, counsel for the Administrative Agent, and, in connection with any such amendment, modification or waiver or any such enforcement or protection, the fees and disbursements of any other counsel for the Administrative Agent or any Bank. The Company further agrees that it shall indemnify the Banks from and hold them harmless against any documentary taxes, assessments or charges made by any Governmental Authority by reason of the execution and delivery of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Docu- ments. (b) The Company agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Bank and its directors, officers, employees and agents (each such person being called an "Indemnitee") against, and to hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including reasonable counsel fees and expenses, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in any way connected with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated thereby, the performance by the parties thereto of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions, (ii) the use of the proceeds of the Loans or (iii) any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether or not 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 determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of such Indemnitee. (c) The provisions of this Section 9.05 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the expiration of the term of this Agreement, the consumma- tion of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Loans, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent or any Bank. All amounts due under this Section 9.05 shall be payable on written demand therefor. SECTION 9.06. Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and any Bank shall have requested the Administrative Agent to declare the Loans immediately due and payable pursuant to Article VII, each Bank 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 indebtedness at any time owing by such Bank to or for the credit or the account of the Company against any of and all the obligations of the Company now or hereafter existing under this Agreement and other Loan Documents held by such Bank, irrespective of whether or not such Bank shall have made any demand under this Agreement or such other Loan Document and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Bank under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Bank may have. SECTION 9.07. Applicable Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. SECTION 9.08. Waivers; Amendment. (a) No failure or delay of the Administrative Agent or any Bank in exercising any power or right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Banks hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and exclusive of any rights or remedies which they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agree- ment or any other Loan Document or consent to any departure by the Company therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) below, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice or demand on the Company in any case shall entitle the Company to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. (b) Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Company and the Required Banks; provided, however, that no such agreement shall (i) change the principal amount of, or extend or advance the maturity of or any date for the payment of any principal of or interest on, any Loan, or waive or excuse any such payment or any part thereof, or change the rate of interest on any Loan, without the prior written consent of each Bank affected thereby, (ii) change the Commitment, Facility Fees or Utilization Fees of any Bank without the prior written consent of such Bank, or (iii) amend or modify the provisions of Section 2.15, the provisions of this Section or the definition of the "Required Banks", without the prior written consent of each Bank; provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent. SECTION 9.09. Interest Rate Limitation. Not- withstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the applicable interest rate, together with all fees and charges which are treated as interest under applicable law (collectively, the "Charges") as provided for herein or in any other document executed in connection herewith, or otherwise contracted for, charged, received, taken or reserved by any Bank, shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the "Maximum Rate") which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by such Bank in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable on such Loan, together with all Charges payable to such Bank, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate. SECTION 9.10. Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the letter agreements referred to in Section 2.05(b) constitute the entire con- tract between the parties relative to the subject matter hereof. Any previous agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof is superseded by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Nothing in this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents, expressed or implied, is intended to confer upon any party other than the parties hereto any rights, remedies, obligations or liabil- ities under or by reason of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. SECTION 9.11. 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 respect of any litigation directly or indirectly arising out of, under or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. Each party hereto (a) certifies that no representative, administrative 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 and the other Loan Documents, as applicable, by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications in this Section 9.11. SECTION 9.12. Severability. In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and therein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotia- tions to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions. SECTION 9.13. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original but all of which when taken together shall constitute but one contract, and shall become effec- tive as provided in Section 9.03. SECTION 9.14. 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 are not to affect the construction of, or to be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement. SECTION 9.15. Confidentiality. Any information obtained by the Administrative Agent or any of the Banks from the Company shall not be disclosed by the Administrative Agent or such Bank to any other person if such information is not otherwise in the public domain except (i) to its officers, directors, employees, administrative agents, independent accountants, Affiliates and legal counsel (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), (ii) pursuant to statutory and regulatory requirements or requests of regulatory authorities, (iii) pursuant to any mandatory court order, subpoena or other legal process, (iv) to the Administrative Agent or any other Bank, (v) pursuant to any agreement heretofore or hereafter made between such Bank and the Company which permits such disclosure, (vi) in connection with the exercise of any remedy under or litigation in connection with the Loan Documents or (vii) subject to Section 9.04(g), to any participant in or assignee of, or prospective participant in or assignee of, any Loan or Commitment.

(a) The Company hereby irrevocably and uncon- ditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court or Federal court of the United States of America sitting in New York City, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, 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 New York 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 shall affect any right that any Bank may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents against the Company or its proper- ties in the courts of any jurisdiction. (b) The Company hereby irrevocably and uncondi- tionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or here- after have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this agreement or the other Loan Documents in any New York State or Federal court. 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. (c) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.01.

(the "Company") issued pursuant to the Loan Agreement dated June 16, 1993 between the Company and the undersigned (the "Loan Agreement"). Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Note. As holder of the Note and a party to the Loan Agreement, we hereby consent and agree that, for the one year period commencing on October 1, 1995 and ending on September 30, 1996, the Company need not comply with the debt ratio covenant set forth in Section 4.05 of the Note. During such period, the Company will not at any time permit the ratio of Consolidated Total Debt to Consolidated Total Capitalization to exceed 0.65 to 1.00; provided, however, that if at any time during such period such ratio exceeds 0.60 to 1.00, then the Note shall bear interest at the rate of 7.45% on the unpaid portion of the principal amount thereof for so long as the ratio exceeds 0.60 to 1.00. Failure to comply with the 0.65 to 1.00 ratio requirement or to pay interest at the increased rate as described herein shall constitute a default under Section 4.05 of the Note. As of October 1, 1996, this letter shall be of no further force and effect, and the provisions of Section 4.05 set forth in the Note shall be automatically reinstated without any further action by the Company or us.
