Receivables which are Purchased Receivables.

reduced or adjusted as a result of any defective, rejected, returned,
repossessed or foreclosed merchandise or services or any cash discount or other
adjustment made by a Seller, or any set-off or dispute in respect of any claim
by the Obligor thereof against a Seller (whether such claim arises out of the
same or a related transaction or an unrelated transaction but excluding
adjustments, reductions or 


                                       7


cancellations in respect of such Obligor's bankruptcy, insolvency or similar

Seller is not the Collection Agent, such Seller shall pay to the Collection
Agent on or prior to the next Settlement Date all amounts deemed to have been
received pursuant to this subsection during the related Fiscal Month.

     (b) Upon discovery by a Seller or the Purchaser of a breach of any of the

representations and warranties made by such Seller in Section 4.01(j) with
respect to any Purchased Receivable transferred by such Seller, such party shall
give prompt written notice thereof to the other party, as soon as practicable
and in any event within three Business Days following such discovery. If such
breach cannot be cured, such Seller shall, upon not less than two Business Days'
notice from the Purchaser or its assignee or designee, repurchase such Purchased
Receivable on the next succeeding Settlement Date for a repurchase price equal
to the Outstanding Balance of such Purchased Receivable. Each repurchase of a
Purchased Receivable shall include the Related Security with respect to such
Purchased Receivable. The proceeds of any such repurchase shall be deemed to be
a Collection in respect of such Purchased Receivable. If such Seller is not the
Collection Agent, such Seller shall pay to the Collection Agent on or prior to
the next Settlement Date the repurchase price required to be paid pursuant to
this subsection.

     (c) Except as stated in subsection (a) or (b) of this Section 2.04 or as
otherwise required by law or the underlying Contract, all Collections from an
Obligor of any Purchased Receivable shall be applied to the Receivables of such
Obligor in the order of the age of such Receivables, starting with the oldest
such Receivable, unless such Obligor designates its payment for application to
specific Receivables.

     SECTION 2.05. Payments and Computations, Etc.

     (c) All computations of interest and all computations of fees hereunder

or deposit to be made hereunder shall be due on a day other than a Business Day,

                                    COVENANTS

     SECTION 5.01. Covenants of the Sellers.

     From the date hereof until the first day following the Facility Termination
Date on which all of the Purchased Receivables are either collected in full or
are written off the books of the Purchaser as uncollectible:

     (a) Compliance with Laws, Etc. Each Seller will comply in all material
respects with all applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders and preserve
and maintain its corporate existence, rights, franchises, qualifications and
privileges except to the extent that the failure so 


                                       11


to comply with such laws, rules and regulations or the failure so to preserve
and maintain such existence, rights, franchises, qualifications, and privileges
would not materially adversely affect the collectibility of the Purchased
Receivables or the ability of such Seller to perform its obligations under this
Agreement.

     (b) Offices, Records and Books of Account. Each Seller will keep its
principal place of business and chief executive office and the office where it
keeps its records concerning the Purchased Receivables at the addresses set

Purchaser, at any other locations in jurisdictions where all actions required by
Section 5.01(k) shall have been taken and completed. Each Seller also will
maintain and implement administrative and operating procedures (including,
without limitation, an ability to recreate records evidencing Purchased
Receivables and related Contracts in the event of the destruction of the

originals thereof), and keep and maintain all documents, books, records and
other information reasonably necessary or advisable for the collection of all
Purchased Receivables (including, without limitation, records adequate to permit
the daily identification of each new Purchased Receivable and all Collections of

otherwise dispose of, or create or suffer to exist any Adverse Claim upon or
with respect to, any Purchased Receivable, Related Security or Collections, or
upon or with respect to any account to which any Collections of any Purchased
Receivable are sent, or assign any right to receive income in respect thereof;
provided, however, that the provisions of this paragraph shall not prevent the
existence of inchoate liens for taxes, assessments and governmental charges or
claims not yet due or being contested in good faith and by appropriate
proceedings; notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Purchaser understands
that each Seller, each Sub-Collection Agent and the Collection Agent will not
segregate any Collections from other funds of such Person and that such
Collections will be commingled with other funds of such Persons in the Sellers'
Agent's cash management operations.

     (e) Extension or Amendment of Purchased Receivables. Except as provided in
Section 6.02(c), each Seller will not extend, amend or otherwise modify the

     and documents (including, without limitation, computer tapes and disks) in
     the possession or under the control of the Collection Agent relating to
     Purchased Receivables and the Related Security, including, without
     limitation, the Contracts, and

          (iii) semi-annually (or more frequently if an Event of Termination
     occurs) to visit the offices and properties of the Collection Agent and
     such Seller for the purpose of examining such materials described in clause
     (ii) above, and to discuss matters relating to Purchased Receivables and
     the Related Security or such Seller's or the Collection Agent's performance

cause or permit to be so deposited or credited, to any Lock-Box Account cash or
cash proceeds other than Collections of Purchased Receivables that constitute
Securitized Receivables; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing,

                                       13


failure to comply with the provisions hereof prior to December 19, 1997 shall
not be a breach of this subsection (i).

data processing records evidencing Purchased Receivables with a legend
evidencing or otherwise mark its records to indicate that such Purchased
Receivables have been sold in accordance with this Agreement.

such Receivables by the Sellers to the Purchaser for all purposes. The Sellers
and the Purchaser shall record each Purchase as a sale or purchase, as the case
may be, on its books and records, and reflect, to the extent required or
permitted by applicable law and/or accounting rules, each Purchase in its
financial statements and tax returns as a sale or purchase, as the case may be.

In the event that, contrary to the mutual intent of the Sellers and the
Purchasers, any Purchase of Receivables hereunder is not characterized as a
sale, the Sellers shall, effective as of the date hereof, be deemed to have
granted (and the Sellers hereby do grant) to the Purchaser a first priority
security interest in and to any and all Purchased Receivables, Related Security
and the proceeds thereof to secure the repayment of all amounts advanced to the
Sellers hereunder with accrued interest thereon, and this Agreement shall be
deemed to be a security agreement.

     SECTION 6.05. Rights and Remedies.

     (a) If a Seller or the Collection Agent fails to perform any of its
obligations under this Agreement, the Purchaser may (but shall not be required

expenses of the Purchaser incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by
such Seller or the Collection Agent, as the case may be, as provided in Section
8.01 or Section 9.04 as applicable.

     (b) Each Seller shall perform all of its obligations under the Contracts
related to the Purchased Receivables to the same extent as if such Seller had
not sold Receivables hereunder and the exercise by the Purchaser of its rights
hereunder shall not relieve such Seller from such obligations or its obligations
with respect to the Purchased Receivables. The Purchaser shall not have any
obligation or liability with respect to any Purchased Receivables or related
Contracts, nor shall the Purchaser be obligated to perform any of the
obligations of such Seller thereunder.

gives notice to a Sub-Collection Agent of the designation of a new
Sub-Collection Agent, each such Sub-Collection Agent is hereby designated as,
and hereby agrees to perform the duties and obligations of, a Sub-Collection
Agent pursuant to the terms hereof. Each such Sub-Collection Agent agrees that
such notice may be given at any time in the Collection Agent's discretion. Upon
receipt of such notice, the Sub-Collection Agent receiving such notice agrees
that it will terminate its activities as Sub-Collection Agent hereunder in a
manner which the Collection Agent believes will facilitate the transition of the
performance of such activities to a new Sub-Collection Agent or to the
Collection Agent, and such Sub-Collection Agent shall use its best efforts to
assist the new Sub-Collection Agent or to the Collection Agent to take over the
servicing, administration and collection of the Purchased


                                       19


Receivables then being serviced by such Sub-Collection Agent, including, without
limitation, providing access to and copies of all computer tapes or disks and

its duties as Sub-Collection Agent, each Sub-Collection Agent shall exercise the
same care and apply the same policies as it would exercise and apply if it owned
such Purchased Receivables and shall act in the best interests of the Purchaser
and its assignees.

     (b) On or before the tenth Business Day after the end of each Fiscal Month,
each Sub-Collection Agent shall prepare and forward to the Purchaser (i) a
Monthly Report, relating to all then outstanding Purchased Receivables sold by
such Sub-Collection Agent hereunder and the Related Security and Collections
with respect thereto, in each case, as of the close of business of such
Sub-Collection Agent on the last day of the immediately preceding Fiscal Month,

     SECTION 7.01. Events of Termination.

     If any of the following events ("Events of Termination") shall occur and be
continuing:

     (a) The Sellers' Agent shall fail (i) to transfer to the Purchaser when
requested any rights, pursuant to this Agreement, which the Sellers' Agent then

     (b) Any representation or warranty made or deemed made by a Seller (or any
of its officers) under or in connection with this Agreement or any written
information or report delivered by a Seller pursuant to this Agreement shall
prove to have been incorrect or untrue in any material respect when made or
deemed made or delivered and such breach shall have a material adverse effect
upon the interest of the Purchaser and shall remain unremedied for thirty (30)
days after written notice thereof shall have been given to the Sellers' Agent by
the Purchaser; or

     (c) A Seller shall fail to perform or observe any other term, covenant or
agreement contained in this Agreement on its part to be performed or observed
and any such failure shall remain unremedied for thirty (30) days after written

with respect to a failure to deliver the Monthly Report pursuant to this
Agreement, such failure shall remain unremedied for five days, without a

                                       21


requirement for notice) and such failure shall have a material adverse effect on
the interest of the Purchaser; or

     (d) Any Purchase of Receivables hereunder, the Related Security and the
Collections with respect thereto shall for any reason cease to constitute valid
and perfected ownership interest or security interest in such Purchased
Receivables, Related Security and Collections free and clear of any Adverse
Claim; or

     (e) A Seller or any of its subsidiaries shall generally not pay its debts
as such debts become due, or shall admit in writing its inability to pay its
debts generally, or shall make a general assignment for the benefit of
creditors; or any proceeding shall be instituted by or against a Seller or any
of its subsidiaries seeking liquidation, winding up, reorganization,
arrangement, adjustment, protection, relief, or composition of it or its debts
under any law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or relief of
debtors, or seeking the entry of an order for relief or the appointment of a
receiver, trustee, custodian or other similar official for it or for any
substantial part of its property and, in the case of any such proceeding

instituted against it (but not instituted by it), either such proceeding shall
remain undismissed or unstayed for a period of sixty (60) days, or any of the
actions sought in such proceeding (including, without limitation, the entry of
an order for relief against, or the appointment of a receiver, trustee,
custodian or other similar official for, it or for any substantial part of its
property) shall occur; or the Seller or any of its subsidiaries shall take any
corporate action to authorize any of the actions set forth above in this

then, and in any such event, the Purchaser may, by notice to the Sellers' Agent,
declare the Facility Termination Date to have occurred (in which case the
Facility Termination Date shall be deemed to have occurred); provided, that,
automatically upon the occurrence of any event (without any requirement for the
passage of time or the giving of notice) described in paragraph (e) of this
Section 7.01, the Facility Termination Date shall occur. Upon any such
declaration or designation or upon such automatic termination, the Purchaser
shall have, in addition to the rights and remedies under this Agreement, all
other rights and remedies with respect to the Purchased Receivables provided
after default under the UCC and under other applicable law, which rights and
remedies shall be cumulative.

                                       22


be owned, directly or indirectly, by Coltec Industries Inc, such Seller shall
immediately cease selling Receivables and the Purchaser shall immediately cease
purchasing such Seller's Receivables hereunder.

                                  ARTICLE VIII

                                 INDEMNIFICATION

     SECTION 8.01. Indemnities.

     Without limiting any other rights which the Purchaser may have hereunder or
under applicable law, each Seller, severally and not jointly, and Coltec,
jointly and severally with each other Seller, hereby agree to indemnify the
Purchaser and its assigns and transferees (each, an "Indemnified Party") from
and against any and all damages, claims, losses, liabilities and related costs
and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements (all of the
foregoing being collectively referred to as "Indemnified Amounts"), awarded

against or incurred by any Indemnified Party arising out of or as a result of:

          (i) any representation or warranty or statement made or deemed made by
     such Seller (or any of its officers) under or in connection with this
     Agreement, which shall have been incorrect in any material respect when
     made;

          (ii) the failure by such Seller to comply with any applicable law,
     rule or regulation with respect to any Purchased Receivable sold by such
     Seller; or the failure of any Purchased Receivable sold by such Seller or
     the related Contract to conform to any such applicable law, rule or
     regulation;

          (iii) the failure to vest in the Purchaser absolute ownership of the
     Receivables that are, or that purport to be, the subject of a Purchase from
     such Seller under this Agreement and the Related Security and Collections
     in respect thereof, free and clear of any Adverse Claim;

          (iv) the failure of such Seller to have filed, or any delay in filing,
     financing statements or other similar instruments or documents under the
     UCC of any applicable jurisdiction or other applicable laws with respect to
     any Receivables that are, or that purport to be, the subject of a Purchase
     sold by such Seller under this Agreement and the Related Security and
     Collections in respect thereof, whether at the time of any Purchase from
     such Seller or at any subsequent time;

          (v) any dispute, claim, offset or defense (other than discharge in
     bankruptcy of the Obligor) of the Obligor to the payment of any Receivable
     that


                                       23


     is, or that purports to be, the subject of a Purchase from such Seller
     under this Agreement (including, without limitation, a defense based on
     such Receivable or the related Contract not being a legal, valid and
     binding obligation of such Obligor enforceable against it in accordance
     with its terms), or any other claim resulting from the sale of the
     merchandise or services related to such Receivable or the furnishing or
     failure to furnish such merchandise or services or relating to collection
     activities with respect to such Receivable (if such collection activities
     were performed by such Seller acting as Sub-Collection Agent) except to the
     extent that such dispute, claim, offset or defense results solely from
     actions or failures to act of the Purchaser or its assigns;

          (vi) any failure of such Seller, as Sub-Collection Agent or otherwise,
     to perform its duties or obligations in accordance with the provisions
     hereof or to perform its duties or obligations under any Contract related
     to a Purchased Receivable sold by such Seller;

          (vii) any products liability or other claim arising out of or in
     connection with merchandise, insurance or services which are the subject of
     any Contract related to a Purchased Receivable sold by such Seller;


          (viii) the commingling by such Seller or an affiliate of such Seller
     of Collections of Purchased Receivables sold by such Seller, at any time
     with other funds of such Seller or an Affiliate of such Seller;

          (ix) any investigation, litigation or proceeding related solely to
     this Agreement or the ownership of Purchased Receivables sold by such
     Seller and the Related Security, or Collections with respect thereto or in
     respect of any Purchased Receivable sold by such Seller and the Related
     Security or related Contract, except to the extent any such investigation,
     litigation or proceeding relates to a possible matter involving an
     Indemnified Party for which neither such Seller nor any of its Affiliates
     is at fault;

          (x) any failure of such Seller to comply with its covenants contained
     in Section 5.01;

          (xi) any claim brought by any Person other than an Indemnified Party
     arising from any activity by such Seller or any Affiliate of such Seller in
     servicing, administering or collecting any Purchased Receivable sold by
     such Seller; or

          (xii) any Dilution with respect to any Purchased Receivable sold by
     such Seller.



                                       24


     It is expressly agreed and understood by the parties hereto (i) that the
foregoing indemnification is not intended to, and shall not, constitute a
guarantee of the collectibility or payment of the Purchased Receivables and (ii)
that nothing in this Section 8.01 shall require a Seller to indemnify any Person
(x) for Receivables which are not collected, not paid or uncollectible on
account of the insolvency, bankruptcy, or financial inability to pay of the
applicable Obligor, (y) for damages, losses, claims or liabilities or related
costs or expenses resulting from such Person's gross negligence or willful
misconduct, or (z) for any income taxes or franchise taxes incurred by such
Person arising out of or as a result of this Agreement or in respect of any
Purchased Receivable or any Contract.

                                   ARTICLE IX

     SECTION 9.01. Amendments, Etc.

     No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any

the Purchaser and, in the case of any amendment, also signed by the Sellers'
Agent, and then such amendment, waiver or consent shall be effective only in the
specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. No failure on
the part of the Purchaser to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right

     hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of the
     Purchaser.

                                       25


          (b) This Agreement shall create and constitute the continuing
     obligations of the parties hereto in accordance with its terms, and shall
     remain in full force and effect until such time, after the Facility
     Termination Date, when all of the Purchased Receivables are either
     collected in full or become Defaulted Receivables; provided, however, that
     rights and remedies with respect to any breach of any representation and
     warranty made by the Seller pursuant to Article IV and the provisions of
     Article VIII and Section 9.04 shall be continuing and shall survive any
     termination of this Agreement.

     SECTION 9.04. Costs, Expenses and Taxes.

          (a) In addition to the rights of indemnification granted to the
     Purchaser pursuant to Article VIII hereof, each Seller agrees to pay on

     out-of-pocket expenses of counsel for the Purchaser with respect thereto
     and with respect to advising the Purchaser as to its rights and remedies

     if any (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses), in connection with
     the enforcement of this Agreement against such Seller and the other

     enforcement or collection of Purchased Receivables.

          (b) In addition, each Seller agrees to pay any and all stamp and other
     taxes and fees payable in connection with the execution, delivery, filing
     and recording of this Agreement or the other documents or agreements to be

     delivered hereunder with respect to such Seller, and each Seller agrees to
     save each Indemnified Party harmless from and against any liabilities with
     respect to or resulting from any delay in paying or omission to pay such
     taxes and fees.

     SECTION 9.05. [reserved]

     SECTION 9.06. [reserved]
