         BORROWING BASE. At the relevant time of reference thereto, an amount
determined by the Agent by reference to the most recent Borrowing Base Report as
adjusted pursuant to the provisions below, which is equal to the sum of:

                  (a)      83% of Eligible Accounts Receivable; MINUS

The Agent may, in its sole discretion, from time to time, upon five (5) days'
prior notice to the Borrower, reduce the lending formula with respect to
Eligible Accounts Receivable or Unbilled Accounts Receivable to the extent that
the Agent determines that: (i) the dilution with respect of the Accounts
Receivable for any period has increased in any material respect or may be
reasonably anticipated to increase in any material respect above historical
levels, or (ii) the general creditworthiness of account debtors or other
obligors of the Borrower has declined. In determining whether to reduce the
lending formula(s), the Agent may consider events, conditions, contingencies or
risks which are also considered in determining Eligible Accounts Receivable or
Unbilled Accounts Receivable or in establishing the Reserves.

         BORROWING BASE REPORT. A Borrowing Base Report signed by the chief
financial officer of the Borrower and in substantially the form of EXHIBIT A

         the meanings assigned to them therein, with the term "instrument" being
         that defined under Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code.

                  (h) Reference to a particular "ss." refers to that section of
         this Credit Agreement unless otherwise indicated.

                  (i) The words "herein", "hereof", "hereunder" and words of
         like import shall refer to this Credit Agreement as a whole and not to
         any particular section or subdivision of this Credit Agreement.

                  (j) Unless otherwise expressly indicated, in the computation
         of periods of time from a specified date to a later specified date, the
         word "from" means "from and including," the words "to" and "until" each
         mean "to but excluding," and the word "through" means "to and
         including."

                  (k) This Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents may use
         several different limitations, tests or measurements to regulate the
         same or similar matters. All such limitations, tests and measurements
         are, however, cumulative and are to be performed in accordance with the
         terms thereof.

                  (l) This Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents are the
         result of negotiation among, and have been reviewed by counsel to,
         among others, the Agent and the Borrower and are the product of
         discussions and negotiations among all parties. Accordingly, this
         Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents are not intended to be
         construed against the Agent or any of the Banks merely on account of
         the Agent's or any Bank's involvement in the preparation of such
         documents.

                        2. THE REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITY.

         2.1. COMMITMENT TO LEND. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth
in this Credit Agreement, each of the Banks severally agrees to lend to the
Borrower and the Borrower may borrow, repay, and reborrow from time to time from
the Closing Date up to but not including the Revolving Credit Loan Maturity Date
upon notice by the Borrower to the Agent given in accordance with ss.2.6, such
sums as are requested by the Borrower up to a maximum aggregate principal amount
outstanding (after giving effect to all amounts requested) at any one time equal
to such Bank's Commitment, PROVIDED that the sum of the outstanding amount of
the Loans (after giving effect to all amounts requested) shall not at any time
exceed the lesser of (i) the Maximum Commitment and (ii) the Borrowing Base. The
Loans shall be made PRO RATA in accordance with each Bank's Commitment
Percentage. Each request for a Loan hereunder shall constitute a representation
and warranty by the Borrower that the conditions set forth in ss.9 and ss.10, in
the case of the initial Loans to be made on the Closing Date, and ss.10, in the
case of all other Loans, have been satisfied on the date of such request.

         2.2. COMMITMENT FEE. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent for the
accounts of the Banks in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages
a commitment fee calculated at the rate of one-half percent (1/2%) per annum on
the average daily amount during each calendar month or portion thereof from the
date hereof, to the Revolving Credit Loan Maturity Date by which the Maximum
Commitment exceeds the outstanding amount of Loans


   20
                                      -14-


during such calendar month. The commitment fee shall be payable monthly in
arrears on the first day of each calendar month for the immediately preceding
calendar month commencing on the first such date following the date hereof, with
a final payment on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date or any earlier date on
which the Commitments shall terminate.

         2.3. REDUCTION OF MAXIMUM COMMITMENT. The Borrower shall have the right
at any time and from time to time upon five (5) Business Days prior written
notice to the Agent to reduce by $1,000,000 or an integral multiple thereof or
terminate entirely the unborrowed portion of the Maximum Commitment, whereupon
the Commitments of the Banks shall be reduced PRO RATA in accordance with their
respective Commitment Percentages of the amount specified in such notice or, as
the case may be, terminated. Promptly after receiving any notice of the Borrower
delivered pursuant to this ss.2.3, the Agent will notify the Banks of the
substance thereof. Upon the effective date of any such reduction or termination,
the Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the respective accounts of the Banks the
full amount of any commitment fee then accrued on the amount of the reduction.
No reduction of the Commitments may be reinstated.

         2.4. THE REVOLVING CREDIT NOTES. The Loans shall be evidenced by
separate promissory notes of the Borrower in substantially the form of EXHIBIT C
hereto (each a "Revolving Credit Note"), dated as of the Closing Date and
completed with appropriate insertions. One Revolving Credit Note shall be
payable to the order of each Bank in a principal amount equal to such Bank's
Commitment or, if less, the outstanding amount of all Loans made by such Bank,
plus interest accrued thereon, as set forth below. The Borrower irrevocably
authorizes each Bank to make or cause to be made, at or about the time of the
Drawdown Date of any Loan or at the time of receipt of any payment of principal
on such Bank's Revolving Credit Note, an appropriate notation on such Bank's
Revolving Credit Note Record reflecting the making of such Loan or (as the case
may be) the receipt of such payment. The outstanding amount of the Loans set
forth on such Bank's Revolving Credit Note Record shall be PRIMA FACIE evidence
of the principal amount thereof owing and unpaid to such Bank, but the failure
to record, or any error in so recording, any such amount on such Bank's
Revolving Credit Note Record shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations
of the Borrower hereunder or under any Revolving Credit Note to make payments of
principal of or interest on any Revolving Credit Note when due.

         2.5.  INTEREST ON LOANS.  Except as otherwise provided in ss.4.9,

                  (a) Each Loan shall bear interest for the period commencing
         with the Drawdown Date thereof and ending on the last day of the
         Interest Period with respect thereto at the rate of two percent (2%)
         per annum above the Base Rate.

                  (b) The Borrower promises to pay interest on each Loan in
         arrears on each Interest Payment Date with respect thereto.


   21
                                      -15-


         2.6.  REQUESTS FOR LOANS.

                  2.6.1. GENERAL. The Borrower shall give to the Agent written
         notice in the form of EXHIBIT D hereto (or telephonic notice confirmed
         in a writing in the form of EXHIBIT D hereto) of each Loan requested
         hereunder (a "Loan Request") no less than one (1) Business Day prior to
         the proposed Drawdown Date of any Loan. Each such notice shall specify
         (A) the principal amount of the Loan requested, and (B) the proposed
         Drawdown Date of such Loan. Promptly upon receipt of any such notice,
         the Agent shall notify each of the Banks thereof. Each such notice
         shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower and shall obligate the
         Borrower to accept the Loan requested from the Banks on the proposed
         Drawdown Date. Each Loan Request shall be in a minimum aggregate amount
         of $250,000 or an integral multiple thereof.

                  2.6.2. SWING LINE. Notwithstanding the notice and minimum
         amount requirements set forth in ss.2.6.2 but otherwise in accordance
         with the terms and conditions of this Credit Agreement, the Agent may,
         in its sole discretion and without conferring with the Banks, make
         Loans to the Borrower (i) by entry of credits to the Borrower's
         operating account (No. 51002998) (the "Operating Account") with the
         Agent to cover checks or other charges which the Borrower has drawn or
         made against such account or (ii) in an amount as otherwise requested
         by the Borrower. The Borrower hereby requests and authorizes the Agent
         to make from time to time such Loans by means of appropriate entries of
         such credits sufficient to cover checks and other charges then
         presented for payment from the Operating Account or as otherwise so
         requested. The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the making of such
         Loans shall, in each case, be subject in all respects to the provisions
         of this Credit Agreement as if they were Loans covered by a Loan
         Request including, without limitation, the limitations set forth in
         ss.2.1 and the requirements that the applicable provisions of ss.9 (in
         the case of Loans made on the Closing Date) and ss.10 be satisfied. All
         actions taken by the Agent pursuant to the provisions of this ss.2.6.2
         shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower and the Banks absent
         the Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct. Prior to a
         Settlement, interest on Loans made pursuant to this ss.2.6.2 shall be
         for the account of the Agent.

         2.7.  FUNDS FOR LOANS.

                  2.7.1. FUNDING PROCEDURES. Not later than 11:00 a.m. (Boston
         time) on the proposed Drawdown Date of any Loans, each of the Banks
         will make available to the Agent, at the Agent's Head Office, in
         immediately available funds, the amount of such Bank's Commitment
         Percentage of the amount of the requested Loans. Upon receipt from each
         Bank of such amount, and upon receipt of the documents required by
         ss.ss.9 and 10 and the satisfaction of the other conditions set forth
         therein, to the extent applicable, the Agent will make available to the





   22
                                      -16-


         Borrower the aggregate amount of such Loans made available to the Agent
         by the Banks. The failure or refusal of any Bank to make available to
         the Agent at the aforesaid time and place on any Drawdown Date the
         amount of its Commitment Percentage of the requested Loans shall not
         relieve any other Bank from its several obligation hereunder to make
         available to the Agent the amount of such other Bank's Commitment
         Percentage of any requested Loans.

                  2.7.2. ADVANCES BY AGENT. The Agent may, unless notified to
         the contrary by any Bank prior to a Drawdown Date, assume that such
         Bank has made available to the Agent on such Drawdown Date the amount
         of such Bank's Commitment Percentage of the Loans to be made on such
         Drawdown Date, and the Agent may (but it shall not be required to), in
         reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a
         corresponding amount. If any Bank makes available to the Agent such
         amount on a date after such Drawdown Date, such Bank shall pay to the
         Agent on demand an amount equal to the product of (i) the average
         computed for the period referred to in clause (iii) below, of the
         weighted average interest rate paid by the Agent for federal funds
         acquired by the Agent during each day included in such period, TIMES
         (ii) the amount of such Bank's Commitment Percentage of such Loans,
         TIMES (iii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days
         that elapse from and including such Drawdown Date to the date on which
         the amount of such Bank's Commitment Percentage of such Loans shall
         become immediately available to the Agent, and the denominator of which
         is 365. A statement of the Agent submitted to such Bank with respect to
         any amounts owing under this paragraph shall be PRIMA FACIE evidence of
         the amount due and owing to the Agent by such Bank. If the amount of
         such Bank's Commitment Percentage of such Loans is not made available
         to the Agent by such Bank within three (3) Business Days following such
         Drawdown Date, the Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount from
         the Borrower on demand, with interest thereon at the rate per annum
         applicable to the Loans made on such Drawdown Date.

         2.8. CHANGE IN BORROWING BASE. The Borrowing Base shall be determined
weekly by the Agent by reference to the Borrowing Base Report and other
information obtained by or provided to the Agent. The Agent shall give to the
Borrower written notice of any change in the Borrowing Base formula determined
by the Agent. In the case of a reduction in the lending formula with respect to
Eligible Accounts Receivable, such notice shall be effective five (5) Business
Days after its receipt by the Borrower, and in the case of any change in the
general criteria for Eligible Accounts Receivable, such notice shall be
effective the next Business Day after its receipt by the Borrower. Prior to the
time that such notice becomes effective the Borrowing Base shall be computed as
it would have been computed in the absence of such notice.

         2.9.  SETTLEMENTS.

                  2.9.1. GENERAL. On each Settlement Date, the Agent shall, not
         later than 11:00 a.m. (Boston time), give telephonic or facsimile
         notice


   23
                                      -17-


         (i) to the Banks and the Borrower of the respective outstanding amount
         of Loans made by the Agent on behalf of the Banks from the immediately
         preceding Settlement Date through the close of business on the prior
         day on such date pursuant to a Loan Request and (ii) to the Banks of
         the amount (a "Settlement Amount") that each Bank (a "Settling Bank")
         shall pay to effect a Settlement of any Loan. A statement of the Agent
         submitted to the Banks and the Borrower or to the Banks with respect to
         any amounts owing under this ss.2.9 shall bE PRIma FACie evidence of
         the amount due and owing. Each Settling Bank shall, not later than 3:00
         p.m. (Boston time) on such Settlement Date, effect a wire transfer of
         immediately available funds to the Agent in the amount of the
         Settlement Amount for such Settling Bank. All funds advanced by any
         Bank as a Settling Bank pursuant to this ss.2.9 shall for all purposes
         be treated as a Loan made by such Settling Bank to the Borrower and all
         funds received by any Bank pursuant to this ss.2.9 shall for all
         purposes be treated as repayment of amounts owed with respect to Loans
         made by such Bank. In the event that any bankruptcy, reorganization,
         liquidation, receivership or similar cases or proceedings in which the
         Borrower is a debtor prevent a Settling Bank from making any Loan to
         effect a Settlement as contemplated hereby, such Settling Bank will
         make such dispositions and arrangements with the other Banks with
         respect to such Loans, either by way of purchase of participations,
         distribution, PRO TANTO assignment of claims, subrogation or otherwise
         as shall result in each Bank's share of the outstanding Loans being
         equal, as nearly as may be, to such Bank's Commitment Percentage of the
         outstanding amount of the Loans.

                  2.9.2. FAILURE TO MAKE FUNDS AVAILABLE. The Agent may, unless
         notified to the contrary by any Settling Bank prior to a Settlement
         Date, assume that such Settling Bank has made or will make available to
         the Agent on such Settlement Date the amount of such Settling Bank's
         Settlement Amount, and the Agent may (but it shall not be required to),
         in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a
         corresponding amount. If any Settling Bank makes available to the Agent
         such amount on a date after such Settlement Date, such Settling Bank
         shall pay to the Agent on demand an amount equal to the product of (i)
         the average computed for the period referred to in clause (iii) below,
         of the weighted average interest rate paid by the Agent for federal
         funds acquired by the Agent during each day included in such period,
         times (ii) the amount of such Settlement Amount, times (iii) a
         fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days that elapse from
         and including such Settlement Date to the date on which the amount of
         such Settlement Amount shall become immediately available to the Agent,
         and the denominator of which is 360. A statement of the Agent submitted
         to such Settling Bank with respect to any amounts owing under this
         ss.2.9.2 shall be prima facie evidence of the amount due and owing to
         the Agent by such Settling Bank. If such Settling Bank's Settlement
         Amount is not made available to the Agent by such Settling Bank within
         three (3) Business Days following such Settlement Date, the Agent shall
         be


   24
                                      -18-


         entitled to recover such amount from the Borrower on demand, with
         interest thereon at the rate per annum applicable to the Loans as of
         such Settlement Date.

                  2.9.3. NO EFFECT ON OTHER BANKS. The failure or refusal of any
         Settling Bank to make available to the Agent at the aforesaid time and
         place on any Settlement Date the amount of such Settling Bank's
         Settlement Amount shall not (i) relieve any other Settling Bank from
         its several obligations hereunder to make available to the Agent the
         amount of such other Settling Bank's Settlement Amount or (ii) impose
         upon any Bank, other than the Settling Bank so failing or refusing, any
         liability with respect to such failure or refusal or otherwise increase
         the Commitment of such other Bank.

         2.10. REPAYMENTS OF LOANS PRIOR TO EVENT OF DEFAULT.

                  2.10.1. CREDIT FOR FUNDS RECEIVED IN CONCENTRATION ACCOUNT.
         Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default as to which the account
         officers of the Agent active upon the Borrower's account have actual
         knowledge, (i) all funds and cash proceeds in the form of money, checks
         and like items received in the BKB Collection Account as contemplated
         by ss.7.14 shall be credited, on the same Business Day on which the
         Agent determines that good collected funds have been received, and,
         prior to the receipt of good collected funds, on a provisional basis
         until final receipt of good collected funds, and applied as
         contemplated by ss.2.10.2, (ii) all funds and cash proceeds in the form
         of a wire transfer received in the BKB Collection Account as
         contemplated by ss.7.14 shall be credited on the same Business Day as
         the Agent's receipt of such amounts (or up to such later date as the
         Agent determines that good collected funds have been received), and
         applied as contemplated by ss.2.10.2, and (iii) all funds and cash
         proceeds in the form of an automated clearing house transfer received
         in the BKB Collection Account as contemplated by ss.7.14 shall be
         credited, on the next Business Day following the Agent's receipt of
         such amounts (or up to such later date as the Agent determines that
         good collected funds have been received), and applied as contemplated
         by ss.2.10.2. For purposes of the foregoing provisions of this
         ss.2.10.1, the Agent shall not be deemed to have received any such
         funds or cash proceeds on any day unless received by the Agent before
         2:30 p.m. (Boston time) on such day. The Borrower further acknowledges
         and agrees that any such provisional credits or credits in respect of
         wire or automatic clearing house funds transfers shall be subject to
         reversal if final collection in good funds of the related item is not
         received by, or final settlement of the funds transfer is not made in
         favor of, the Agent in accordance with the Agent's customary procedures
         and practices for collecting provisional items or receiving settlement
         of funds transfers.

                  2.10.2. APPLICATION OF PAYMENTS PRIOR TO EVENT OF DEFAULT.

                           (a) Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default of
                  which the account officers of the Agent active on the
                  Borrower's account have knowledge, all funds transferred to
                  the BKB Collection Account and for which the Borrower has
                  received credits shall be applied to the Obligations as
                  follows:

                                    (i) first, to pay amounts then due and
                           payable to OI to be applied by OI to amounts
                           outstanding under the OI Revolving Credit Agreement;

                                    (ii) second, to pay amounts then due and
                           payable under this Agreement, the Revolving Credit
                           Notes and the other Loan Documents;

                                    (iii) third, to reduce Loans made by the
                           Agent pursuant to ss.2.6.2 and for which Settlement
                           has not then been made;

                                    (iv) fourth, to reduce other Loans;

                                    (v) fifth to the Operating Account.

                           (b) All prepayments of the Loans pursuant to this
                  ss.2.10.2 shall be allocated among the Banks making such
                  Loans, in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the
                  respective unpaid principal amount of such Loans outstanding,
                  with adjustments to the extent practicable to equalize any
                  prior payments or repayments not exactly in proportion. Prior
                  to any Settlement Date, however, all prepayments of the Loans
                  shall be applied in accordance with this ss.2.10.2, first to
                  outstanding Loans of the Agent.

         2.11. REPAYMENTS OF LOANS AFTER EVENT OF DEFAULT. Following the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default of which the
account officers of the Agent active on the Borrower's account have knowledge,
all funds transferred to the BKB Collection Account and for which the Borrower
has received credits shall be applied to the Obligations in accordance with
ss.11.4.

                           3. REPAYMENT OF THE LOANS.

         3.1. MATURITY. The Borrower promises to pay on the Revolving Credit
Loan Maturity Date, and there shall become absolutely due and payable on the
Revolving Credit Loan Maturity Date, all of the Loans outstanding on such date,
together with any and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon.

         3.2. MANDATORY REPAYMENTS OF LOANS. If at any time the sum of the
outstanding amount of the Loans exceeds the lesser of (i) the Maximum Commitment
and (ii) the Borrowing Base, then the Borrower shall immediately pay the amount
of such excess to the Agent for application to the Loans. Each


   26
                                      -20-


prepayment of Revolving Credit Loans shall be allocated among the Banks in
proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective unpaid principal amount
of each Bank's Revolving Credit Note, with adjustments to the extent practicable
to equalize any prior payments or repayments not exactly in proportion.

         3.3. OPTIONAL REPAYMENTS OF LOANS. The Borrower shall have the right,
at its election, to repay the outstanding amount of the Loans, as a whole or in
part, at any time without penalty or premium. The Borrower shall give the Agent,
no later than 10:00 a.m., Boston time, at least three (3) Business Days prior
written notice, of any proposed repayment of any Loan pursuant to this ss.3.3
specifying the proposed date of payment of Loans and the principal amount to be
paid. Each such partial prepayment of the Loans shall be in an integral multiple
of $100,000 shall be accompanied by the payment of accrued interest on the
principal repaid to the date of payment. Each partial prepayment shall be
allocated among the Banks, in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the
respective unpaid principal amount of each Bank's Revolving Credit Note, with
adjustments to the extent practicable to equalize any prior repayments not
exactly in proportion.

                         4. CERTAIN GENERAL PROVISIONS.

         4.1. CLOSING FEE. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent, for the PRO
RATA accounts of the Banks, a fully earned closing fee in the amount of $125,000
payable on the date which is the earliest to occur of (a) October 22, 1999, (b)
the date of any acceleration of the Obligations of the Borrower to the Banks and
(c) the date on which all Obligations of the Borrower to the Banks are paid in
full and the Banks have no further commitment to extend credit.

         4.2. AGENT'S FEE. The Borrower shall pay to the Agent monthly in
advance, for the Agent's own account, on the Closing Date and each month after
the Closing Date, an Agent's fee in the amount of $2,500 per month.

         4.3. FUNDS FOR PAYMENTS.

                  4.3.1. PAYMENTS TO AGENT. All payments of principal, interest,
         commitment fees and any other amounts due hereunder or under any of the
         other Loan Documents shall be made on the due date thereof to the Agent
         in Dollars, for the respective accounts of the Banks and the Agent, at
         the Agent's Head Office or at such other place that the Agent may from
         time to time designate, in each case at or about 11:00 a.m. (Boston,
         Massachusetts, time or other local time at the place of payment) and in
         immediately available funds.

                  4.3.2. NO OFFSET, ETC. All payments by the Borrower hereunder
         and under any of the other Loan Documents shall be made without
         recoupment, setoff or counterclaim and free and clear of and without
         deduction for any taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees,
         deductions, withholdings, compulsory loans, restrictions or conditions
         of


   27
                                      -21-


         any nature now or hereafter imposed or levied by any jurisdiction or
         any political subdivision thereof or taxing or other authority therein
         unless the Borrower is compelled by law to make such deduction or
         withholding. If any such obligation is imposed upon the Borrower with
         respect to any amount payable by it hereunder or under any of the other
         Loan Documents, the Borrower will pay to the Agent, for the account of
         the Banks or (as the case may be) the Agent, on the date on which such
         amount is due and payable hereunder or under such other Loan Document,
         such additional amount in Dollars as shall be necessary to enable the
         Banks or the Agent to receive the same net amount which the Banks or
         the Agent would have received on such due date had no such obligation
         been imposed upon the Borrower. The Borrower will deliver promptly to
         the Agent certificates or other valid vouchers for all taxes or other
         charges deducted from or paid with respect to payments made by the
         Borrower hereunder or under such other Loan Document.

         4.4. COMPUTATIONS. All computations of interest on the Loans and of
commitment or other fees shall be based on a 360-day year and paid for the
actual number of days elapsed. Whenever a payment hereunder or under any of the
other Loan Documents becomes due on a day that is not a Business Day, the due
date for such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and
interest shall accrue during such extension. The outstanding amount of the Loans
as reflected on the Revolving Credit Note Records from time to time shall be
considered correct and binding on the Borrower unless within five (5) Business
Days after receipt of any notice by the Agent or any of the Banks of such
outstanding amount, the Agent or such Bank shall notify the Borrower to the
contrary.

         4.5. ADDITIONAL COSTS, ETC. If any present or future applicable law,
which expression, as used herein, includes statutes, rules and regulations
thereunder and interpretations thereof by any competent court or by any
governmental or other regulatory body or official charged with the
administration or the interpretation thereof and requests, directives,
instructions and notices at any time or from time to time hereafter made upon or
otherwise issued to any Bank or the Agent by any central bank or other fiscal,
monetary or other authority (whether or not having the force of law), shall:

                  (a) subject any Bank or the Agent to any tax, levy, impost,
         duty, charge, fee, deduction or withholding of any nature with respect
         to this Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents, such Bank's
         Commitment or the Loans (other than taxes based upon or measured by the
         income or profits of such Bank or the Agent), or

                  (b) materially change the basis of taxation (except for
         changes in taxes on income or profits) of payments to any Bank of the
         principal of or the interest on any Loans or any other amounts payable
         to any Bank or the Agent under this Credit Agreement or the other Loan
         Documents, or



   28
                                      -22-


                  (c) impose or increase or render applicable (other than to the
         extent specifically provided for elsewhere in this Credit Agreement)
         any special deposit, reserve, assessment, liquidity, capital adequacy
         or other similar requirements (whether or not having the force of law)
         against assets held by, or deposits in or for the account of, or loans
         by, or commitments of an office of any Bank, or

                  (d) impose on any Bank or the Agent any other conditions or
         requirements with respect to this Credit Agreement, the other Loan
         Documents, the Loans, such Bank's Commitment, or any class of loans or
         commitments of which any of the Loans or such Bank's Commitment forms a
         part, and the result of any of the foregoing is

                           (i) to increase the cost to any Bank of making,
                  funding, issuing, renewing, extending or maintaining any of
                  the Loans or such Bank's Commitment, or

                           (ii) to reduce the amount of principal, interest, or
                  other amount payable to such Bank or the Agent hereunder on
                  account of such Bank's Commitment or any of the Loans, or

                           (iii) to require such Bank or the Agent to make any
                  payment or to forego any interest or other sum payable
                  hereunder, the amount of which payment or foregone interest or
                  other sum is calculated by reference to the gross amount of
                  any sum receivable or deemed received by such Bank or the
                  Agent from the Borrower hereunder,

then, and in each such case, the Borrower will, upon demand made by such Bank or
(as the case may be) the Agent at any time and from time to time and as often as
the occasion therefor may arise, pay to such Bank or the Agent such additional
amounts as will be sufficient to compensate such Bank or the Agent for such
additional cost, reduction, payment or foregone interest or other sum.

         4.6. CAPITAL ADEQUACY. If after the date hereof any Bank or the Agent
determines that (i) the adoption of or change in any law, governmental rule,
regulation, policy, guideline or directive (whether or not having the force of
law) regarding capital requirements for banks or bank holding companies or any
change in the interpretation or application thereof by a court or governmental
authority with appropriate jurisdiction, or (ii) compliance by such Bank or the
Agent or any corporation controlling such Bank or the Agent with any law,
governmental rule, regulation, policy, guideline or directive (whether or not
having the force of law) of any such entity regarding capital adequacy, has the
effect of reducing the return on such Bank's or the Agent's commitment with
respect to any Loans to a level below that which such Bank or the Agent could
have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into
consideration such Bank's or the Agent's then existing policies with respect to
capital adequacy and assuming full utilization of such entity's capital) by any
amount deemed by such Bank or (as the case may be) the Agent to be material,



   29
                                      -23-


then such Bank or the Agent may notify the Borrower of such fact. To the extent
that the amount of such reduction in the return on capital is not reflected in
the Base Rate, the Borrower agrees to pay such Bank or (as the case may be) the
Agent for the amount of such reduction in the return on capital as and when such
reduction is determined upon presentation by such Bank or (as the case may be)
the Agent of a certificate in accordance with ss.5.9 hereof. Each Bank shall
allocate such cost increases among its customers in good faith and on an
equitable basis.

         4.7. CERTIFICATE. A certificate setting forth any additional amounts
payable pursuant to ss.ss.4.5 or 4.6 and a brief explanation of such amounts
which are due, submitted by any Bank or the Agent to the Borrower, shall be
conclusive, absent manifest error, that such amounts are due and owing.

         4.8. INDEMNITY. The Borrower agrees to indemnify each Bank and to hold
each Bank harmless from and against any loss, cost or expense (including loss of
anticipated profits) that such Bank may sustain or incur as a consequence of
default by the Borrower in making a borrowing after the Borrower has given (or
is deemed to have given) a Loan Request.

         4.9. INTEREST AFTER DEFAULT. During the continuance of a Default or an
Event of Default the principal of the Loans shall, until such Default or Event
of Default has been cured or remedied or such Default or Event of Default has
been waived by the Majority Banks pursuant to ss.24, bear interest at a rate per
annum equal to four percent (4%) above the rate of interest otherwise applicable
to such Loans pursuant to ss.2.5.

                                  5. SECURITY.

         The Obligations shall be secured by a perfected first priority security
interest (subject only to Permitted Liens entitled to priority under applicable
law) in all of the assets of the Borrower, whether now owned or hereafter
acquired, pursuant to the terms of the Security Documents to which the Borrower
is a party.

                       6. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.

         The Borrower represents and warrants to the Banks and the Agent as

         assets or financial condition of the Borrower.

                  6.1.2. AUTHORIZATION. The execution, delivery and performance

         moratorium or other laws relating to or affecting generally the
         enforcement of creditors' rights and except to the extent that
         availability of the remedy of specific performance or injunctive relief
         is subject to the discretion of the court before which any proceeding
         therefor may be brought.

         6.2. GOVERNMENTAL APPROVALS. The execution, delivery and performance by
the Borrower of this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which the

mortgages, leases, conditional sales agreements, title retention agreements,

         6.4.  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND PROJECTIONS.

   31
                                      -25-


                  6.4.2. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.

                           (a) There has been furnished to the Agent a balance
                  sheet of the Borrower as at the Balance Sheet Date, and a
                  statement of income for the fiscal year then ended, certified
                  by the Borrower's independent certified public accountants.
                  Such balance sheet and statement of income have been prepared
                  in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
                  and fairly present the financial condition of the Borrower as
                  at the close of business on the date thereof and the results
                  of operations for the fiscal year then ended. There are no
                  contingent liabilities of the Borrower as of such date
                  involving material amounts, known to the officers of the
                  Borrower not disclosed in said balance sheet and the related
                  notes thereto.

                           (b) There has been furnished to the Agent the form
                  10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 1999 as filed
                  with the Securities and Exchange Commission. There are no
                  contingent liabilities of the Borrower as of such date
                  involving material amounts known to the officers of the
                  Borrower not disclosed in said balance sheet and the related
                  notes thereto.

                  6.4.3. PROJECTIONS. The projections of the annual operating
         budgets, balance sheets and cash flow statements of OI to the extent
         that such relate to the Borrower, copies of which have been delivered
         to each Bank, disclose all material assumptions made with respect to
         general economic, financial and market conditions used in formulating
         such projections. To the knowledge of the Borrower, no facts exist that
         (individually or in the aggregate) would result in any material change
         in any of such projections. The projections are based upon reasonable
         estimates and assumptions, have been prepared on the basis of the
         assumptions stated therein and reflect the reasonable estimates of OI
         of the results of operations and other information projected therein.

         6.5. NO MATERIAL CHANGES, ETC. Since the Balance Sheet Date, except as
disclosed in the quarterly financial statements furnished to the Agent pursuant
to ss.6.4.2(b) hereto, there has occurred no materially adverse change in the
financial condition or business of the Borrower as shown on or reflected in the
balance sheet of the Borrower as at the Balance Sheet Date, or the statement of
income for the fiscal year then ended, other than changes in the ordinary course
of business that have not had any materially adverse effect either individually
or in the aggregate on the business or financial condition of the Borrower.
Since the Balance Sheet Date, the Borrower has not made any Distribution.

         6.6. FRANCHISES, PATENTS, COPYRIGHTS, ETC. The Borrower possesses all
franchises, patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade names, licenses and permits,
and rights in respect of the foregoing, adequate for the conduct of its business
substantially as now conducted without known conflict with any rights of others.


   32
                                      -26-


         6.7. LITIGATION. There are no actions, suits, proceedings or
investigations of any kind pending or threatened against the Borrower before any
court, tribunal or administrative agency or board that, if adversely determined,
might, either in any case or in the aggregate, materially adversely affect the
properties, assets, financial condition or business of the Borrower or
materially impair the right of the Borrower, to carry on business substantially
as now conducted by the Borrower, or result in any substantial liability not
adequately covered by insurance, or for which adequate reserves are not
maintained on the balance sheet of the Borrower, or which question the validity
of this Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or any action taken
or to be taken pursuant hereto or thereto.

         6.8. NO MATERIALLY ADVERSE CONTRACTS, ETC. The Borrower is not subject
to any charter, corporate or other legal restriction, or any judgment, decree,
order, rule or regulation that has or is expected in the future to have a
materially adverse effect on the business, assets or financial condition of the
Borrower. The Borrower is not a party to any contract or agreement that has or
is expected, in the judgment of the Borrower's officers, to have any materially
adverse effect on the business of the Borrower.

         6.9. COMPLIANCE WITH OTHER INSTRUMENTS, LAWS, ETC. The Borrower is not
in violation of any provision of its charter documents, bylaws, or any agreement
or instrument to which it may be subject or by which it or any of its properties
may be bound or any decree, order, judgment, statute, license, rule or
regulation, in any of the foregoing cases in a manner that could result in the
imposition of substantial penalties or materially and adversely affect the
financial condition, properties or business of the Borrower.

         6.10. TAX STATUS. The Borrower (i) has made or filed all federal and
state income and all other tax returns, reports and declarations required by any
jurisdiction to which any of them is subject, (ii) has paid all taxes and other
governmental assessments and charges shown or determined to be due on such
returns, reports and declarations, except those being contested in good faith
and by appropriate proceedings and (iii) has set aside on its books provisions
reasonably adequate for the payment of all taxes for periods subsequent to the
periods to which such returns, reports or declarations apply. There are no
unpaid taxes in any material amount claimed to be due by the taxing authority of
any jurisdiction, and the officers of the Borrower know of no basis for any such
claim.

         6.11. NO EVENT OF DEFAULT. No Default or Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing.

         6.12. HOLDING COMPANY AND INVESTMENT COMPANY ACTS. The Borrower is not
a "holding company", or a "subsidiary company" of a "holding company", or an
affiliate" of a "holding company", as such terms are defined in the Public
Utility Holding Company Act of 1935; nor is it an "investment company", or an
"affiliated company" or a "principal underwriter" of an


   33
                                      -27-


"investment company", as such terms are defined in the Investment Company Act of
1940.

         6.13. ABSENCE OF FINANCING STATEMENTS, ETC. Except with respect to
Permitted Liens, there is no financing statement, security agreement, chattel
mortgage, real estate mortgage or other document filed or recorded with any
filing records, registry, or other public office, that purports to cover, affect
or give notice of any present or possible future lien on, or security interest
in, any assets or property of the Borrower or rights thereunder.

         6.14. PERFECTION OF SECURITY INTEREST. All filings, assignments,
pledges and deposits of documents or instruments have been made and all other
actions have been taken that are necessary or advisable, under applicable law,
to establish and perfect the Agent's security interest in the Collateral. The
Collateral and the Agent's rights with respect to the Collateral are not subject
to any setoff, claims, withholdings or other defenses. The Borrower is the owner
of the Collateral free from any lien, security interest, encumbrance and any
other claim or demand, except for Permitted Liens.

         6.15. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS.

                  6.15.1. IN GENERAL. Each Employee Benefit Plan and each
         Guaranteed Pension Plan has been maintained and operated in compliance
         in all material respects with the provisions of ERISA and, to the
         extent applicable, the Code, including but not limited to the
         provisions thereunder respecting prohibited transactions and the
         bonding of fiduciaries and other persons handling plan funds as
         required by ss.412 of ERISA. The Borrower has heretofore delivered to
         the Agent the most recently completed annual report, Form 5500, with
         all required attachments, and actuarial statement required to be
         submitted under ss.103(d) of ERISA, with respect to each Guaranteed
         Pension Plan.

                  6.15.2. TERMINABILITY OF WELFARE PLANS. No Employee Benefit
         Plan, which is an employee welfare benefit plan within the meaning of
         ss.3(1) or ss.3(2)(B) of ERISA, provides benefit coverage subsequent to
         termination of employment, except as required by Title I, Part 6 of
         ERISA or the applicable state insurance laws. The Borrower may
         terminate each such Plan at any time (or at any time subsequent to the
         expiration of any applicable bargaining agreement) in the discretion of
         the Borrower without liability to any Person other than for claims
         arising prior to termination.

                  6.15.3. GUARANTEED PENSION PLANS. Each contribution required
         to be made to a Guaranteed Pension Plan, whether required to be made to
         avoid the incurrence of an accumulated funding deficiency, the notice
         or lien provisions of ss.302(f) of ERISA, or otherwise, has been timely
         made. No waiver of an accumulated funding deficiency or extension of
         amortization periods has been received with respect to any Guaranteed
         Pension Plan, and neither the Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate is





   34
                                      -28-


         obligated to or has posted security in connection with an amendment to
         a Guaranteed Pension Plan pursuant to ss.307 of ERISA or ss.401(a)(29)
         of the Code. No liability to the PBGC (other than required insurance
         premiums, all of which have been paid) has been incurred by the
         Borrower or any ERISA Affiliate with respect to any Guaranteed Pension
         Plan and there has not been any ERISA Reportable Event (other than an
         ERISA Reportable Event as to which the requirement of 30 days notice
         has been waived), or any other event or condition which presents a
         material risk of termination of any Guaranteed Pension Plan by the
         PBGC. Based on the latest valuation of each Guaranteed Pension Plan
         (which in each case occurred within twelve months of the date of this
         representation), and on the actuarial methods and assumptions employed
         for that valuation, the aggregate benefit liabilities of all such
         Guaranteed Pension Plans within the meaning of ss.4001 of ERISA did not
         exceed the aggregate value of the assets of all such Guaranteed Pension
         Plans, disregarding for this purpose the benefit liabilities and assets
         of any Guaranteed Pension Plan with assets in excess of benefit
         liabilities.

   36
                                      -30-


         releasing, spilling, leaking, pumping, pouring, emitting, emptying,
         discharging, injecting, escaping, disposing or dumping) or threatened
         releases of Hazardous Substances on, upon, into or from the properties
         of the Borrower, which releases would have a material adverse effect on
         the value of any of the Real Estate or adjacent properties or the
         environment; (iv) to the best of the Borrower's knowledge, there have
         been no releases on, upon, from or into any real property in the

         material adverse effect on the value of, the Real Estate; and (v) in
         addition, any Hazardous Substances that have been generated on any of
         the Real Estate have been transported offsite only by carriers having
         an identification number issued by the EPA, treated or disposed of only
         by treatment or disposal facilities maintaining valid permits as
         required under applicable Environmental Laws, which transporters and
         facilities have been and are, to the best of the Borrower's knowledge,
         operating in compliance with such permits and applicable Environmental
         Laws; and

                  (d) none of the Borrower or the Real Estate is subject to any

         transactions contemplated hereby.

         6.18. BANK ACCOUNTS. SCHEDULE 6.18 sets forth the account numbers and
location of all Lock-Box Accounts and other bank accounts of the Borrower.

         6.19. YEAR 2000 PROBLEM. The Borrower has (i) reviewed the areas within
their businesses and operations which could be adversely affected by failure to
become "Year 2000 Compliant" (i.e. that computer applications, imbedded
microchips and other systems used by the Borrower or any of its material
vendors, will be able properly to recognize and perform properly date-sensitive
functions involving certain dates prior to and any date after December 31,
1999), (ii) developed a detailed plan and timetable to become Year 2000
Compliant in a timely manner, and (iii) committed adequate resources to support
the Year 2000 plan of the Borrower. Based upon such review, the Borrower
reasonably believes that the Borrower will become "Year 2000 Compliant" in a
timely manner except to the extent that failure to do so will not have any
materially adverse effect on the business or financial condition of the
Borrower.

         6.20. DISCLOSURE. None of this Credit Agreement or any of the other
Loan Documents contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to
state a material fact (known to the Borrower in the case of any document or
information not furnished by it) necessary in order to make the statements
herein or therein not misleading. There is no fact known to the Borrower which


   37
                                      -31-


materially adversely affects, or which is reasonably likely in the future to
materially adversely affect, the business, assets, financial condition or
prospects of the Borrower, exclusive of effects resulting from changes in
general economic conditions, legal standards or regulatory conditions.

         6.21. SEPARATE LEGAL ENTITY. The Borrower is operated as an entity with
assets and liabilities distinct from those of OI and any Affiliate thereof
(other than the Borrower).

                    7. AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS OF THE BORROWER.

         The Borrower covenants and agrees that, so long as any Loan or
Revolving Credit Note is outstanding or any Bank has any obligation to make any

contingencies, and other reserves, and (iii) at all times engage DeLoitte &
Touche, LLP or other independent certified public accountants satisfactory to
the Agent as the independent certified public accountants of the Borrower and
will not permit more than thirty (30) days to elapse between the cessation of
such firm's (or any successor firm's) engagement as the independent certified
public accountants of the Borrower and the appointment in such capacity of a
successor firm as shall be satisfactory to the Agent.

         7.4. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, CERTIFICATES AND INFORMATION. The Borrower
will deliver to each of the Banks:

                  (a) as soon as practicable, but in any event not later than

         the Borrower, copies of the unaudited balance sheet of the Borrower as
         at the end of such quarter, and the related statement of income and
         statement of cash flow for the portion of the Borrower's fiscal year

   38
                                      -32-


         elapsed, all in reasonable detail and prepared in accordance with
         generally accepted accounting principles, together with a certification
         by the principal financial or accounting officer of the Borrower that

         year-end adjustments);

                  (b) as soon as practicable, but in any event within thirty

         principles, together with a certification by the principal financial or
         accounting officer of the Borrower that the information contained in
         such financial statements fairly presents the financial condition of
         the Borrower and its Subsidiaries on the date thereof (subject to
         year-end adjustments);

                  (c) contemporaneously with the filing or mailing thereof,
         copies of all material of a financial nature filed with the Securities

         information (including accountants, management letters) as the Agent or
         any Bank may reasonably request.

         7.5.  NOTICES.

                  7.5.1. DEFAULTS. The Borrower will promptly notify the Agent

         Event of Default) under this Credit Agreement or any other note,
         evidence of indebtedness, indenture or other obligation to which or
         with respect to which the Borrower is a party or obligor, whether as
         principal or surety, the Borrower shall forthwith give written notice
         thereof to each of the Banks, describing the notice or action and the
         nature of the claimed default.

                  7.5.2. ENVIRONMENTAL EVENTS. The Borrower will promptly give
         notice to the Agent (i) of any violation of any Environmental Law that
         the Borrower reports in writing or is reportable by such Person in

         report is made) to any federal, state or local environmental agency and
         (ii) upon becoming


   39
                                      -33-

         action, including a notice from any agency of potential environmental
         liability, of any federal, state or local environmental agency or
         board, that has the potential to materially affect the assets,
         liabilities, financial conditions or operations of the Borrower, or the

         Guaranteed Pension Plan; or (ii) the appointment by a United States
         District Court of a trustee to administer such Guaranteed Pension Plan;
         or (iii) the institution by the PBGC of proceedings to terminate such
         Guaranteed Pension Plan;

                  (l) the Borrower shall be enjoined, restrained or in any way
         prevented by the order of any court or any administrative or regulatory
         agency from conducting any material part of its business and such order
         shall continue in effect for more than thirty (30) days;

                  (m) there shall occur any material damage to, or loss, theft
         or destruction of, any material portion of the Collateral, whether or
         not insured, or any strike, lockout, labor dispute, embargo,
         condemnation, act of God or public enemy, or other casualty, which in
         any such case causes, for more than fifteen (15) consecutive days, the
         cessation or substantial curtailment of revenue producing activities at
         any facility of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries;

                  (n) there shall occur the loss, suspension or revocation of,
         or failure to renew, any license or permit now held or hereafter
         acquired by the Borrower if such loss, suspension, revocation or
         failure to renew would have a material adverse effect on the business
         or financial condition of the Borrower;

                  (o) the Borrower shall be indicted for a state or federal
         crime, or any civil or criminal action shall otherwise have been
         brought or threatened against the Borrower, a punishment for which in
         any such case could include the forfeiture of any assets of the
         Borrower included in the Borrowing Base or any assets of the Borrower
         not included in the Borrowing Base but having a fair market value in
         excess of $10,000;

                  (p) there shall occur an event of default under the OI
         Revolving Credit Agreement;



   52
                                      -46-


                  (q) five (5) Business Days following any date on or after
         October 15, 1999 on which the Agent has given written notice to the
         Borrower that the Banks, in their sole discretion, have declared an
         Event of Default hereunder.

then, and in any such event, so long as the same may be continuing, the Agent
may, and upon the request of the Majority Banks shall, by notice in writing to
the Borrower declare all amounts owing with respect to this Credit Agreement,
the Revolving Credit Notes and the other Loan Documents to be, and they shall
thereupon forthwith become, immediately due and payable without presentment,
demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly
waived by the Borrower; PROVIDED that in the event of any Event of Default
specified in ss.ss.11.1(g), 11.1(h) or 11.1(j), all such amounts shall become
immediately due and payable automatically and without any requirement of notice
from the Agent or any Bank.

         11.2. TERMINATION OF COMMITMENTS. If any one or more of the Events of
Default specified in ss.11.1(g), ss.11.1(h) or ss.11.1(j) shall occur, any
unused portion of the credit hereunder shall forthwith terminate and each of the
Banks shall be relieved of all obligations to make Loans to the Borrower. If any
other Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, or if on any
Drawdown Date the conditions precedent to the making of the Loans to be made on
such Drawdown Date are not satisfied, the Agent may and, upon the request of the
Majority Banks, shall, by notice to the Borrower, terminate the unused portion
of the credit hereunder, and upon such notice being given such unused portion of
the credit hereunder shall terminate immediately and each of the Banks shall be
relieved of all further obligations to make Loans. If any such notice is given
to the Borrower the Agent will forthwith furnish a copy thereof to each of the
Banks. No termination of the credit hereunder shall relieve the Borrower of any
of the Obligations or any of its existing obligations to any of the Banks
arising under other agreements or instruments.

         11.3. REMEDIES. In case any one or more of the Events of Default shall
have occurred and be continuing, and whether or not the Banks shall have
accelerated the maturity of the Loans pursuant to ss.11.1, each Bank, if owed
any amount with respect to the Loans, may proceed to protect and enforce its
rights by suit in equity, action at law or other appropriate proceeding, whether
for the specific performance of any covenant or agreement contained in this
Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents or any instrument pursuant to
which the Obligations to such Bank are evidenced, including as permitted by
applicable law the obtaining of the EX PARTE appointment of a receiver, and, if
such amount shall have become due, by declaration or otherwise, proceed to
enforce the payment thereof or any other legal or equitable right of such Bank.
No remedy herein conferred upon any Bank or the Agent or the holder of any
Revolving Credit Note is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy and each
and every remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other
remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by
statute or any other provision of law.


   53
                                      -47-


         11.4. DISTRIBUTION OF COLLATERAL PROCEEDS. In the event that the Agent
receives proceeds as contemplated by ss.2.11 or in the event that, following the
occurrence or during the continuance of any Default or Event of Default, the
Agent or any Bank, as the case may be, receives any monies in connection with
the enforcement of any the Security Documents, or otherwise with respect to the
realization upon any of the Collateral, such monies shall be distributed for
application as follows:

                  (a) First, to the payment of, or (as the case may be) the
         reimbursement of the Agent for or in respect of all reasonable costs,
         expenses, disbursements and losses which shall have been incurred or
         sustained by the Agent in connection with the collection of such monies
         by the Agent, for the exercise, protection or enforcement by the Agent
         of all or any of the rights, remedies, powers and privileges of the
         Agent under this Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or
         in respect of the Collateral or in support of any provision of adequate
         indemnity to the Agent against any taxes or liens which by law shall
         have, or may have, priority over the rights of the Agent to such
         monies;

                  (b) Second, to all other Obligations in such order or
         preference as the Majority Banks may determine; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that
         (i) distributions shall be made (A) PARI PASSU among Obligations with
         respect to the Agent's fee payable pursuant to ss.4.2 and all other
         Obligations and (B) with respect to each type of Obligation owing to
         the Banks, such as interest, principal, fees and expenses, among the
         Banks PRO RATA, and (ii) the Agent may in its discretion make proper
         allowance to take into account any Obligations not then due and
         payable;

                  (c) Third, upon payment and satisfaction in full or other
         provisions for payment in full satisfactory to the Banks and the Agent
         of all of the Obligations, to the payment of any obligations required
         to be paid pursuant to ss.9-504(1)(c) of the Uniform Commercial Code of
         the Commonwealth of Massachusetts; and

                  (d) Fourth, the excess, if any, shall be returned to the
         Borrower or to such other Persons as are entitled thereto.

                                   12. SETOFF.

         Regardless of the adequacy of any collateral, during the continuance of
any Event of Default, any deposits or other sums credited by or due from any of
the Banks to the Borrower and any securities or other property of the Borrower
in the possession of such Bank may be applied to or set off by such Bank against
the payment of Obligations and any and all other liabilities, direct, or
indirect, absolute or contingent, due or to become due, now existing or
hereafter arising, of the Borrower to such Bank. Each of the Banks agrees with
each other Bank that (i) if an amount to be set off is to be applied to
Indebtedness of the Borrower to such Bank, other than Indebtedness evidenced by
the Revolving Credit Notes held by such Bank, such amount shall be applied


   54
                                      -48-


ratably to such other Indebtedness and to the Indebtedness evidenced by all such
Revolving Credit Notes held by such Bank, and (ii) if such Bank shall receive
from the Borrower, whether by voluntary payment, exercise of the right of
setoff, counterclaim, cross action, enforcement of the claim evidenced by the
Revolving Credit Notes held by such Bank by proceedings against the Borrower at
law or in equity or by proof thereof in bankruptcy, reorganization, liquidation,
receivership or similar proceedings, or otherwise, and shall retain and apply to
the payment of the Revolving Credit Note or Revolving Credit Notes held by such
Bank any amount in excess of its ratable portion of the payments received by all
of the Banks with respect to the Revolving Credit Notes held by all of the
Banks, such Bank will make such disposition and arrangements with the other
Banks with respect to such excess, either by way of distribution, PRO TANTO
assignment of claims, subrogation or otherwise as shall result in each Bank
receiving in respect of the Revolving Credit Notes held by its proportionate
payment as contemplated by this Credit Agreement; PROVIDED that if all or any
part of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such Bank, such
disposition and arrangements shall be rescinded and the amount restored to the
extent of such recovery, but without interest.

                                 13. THE AGENT.

         13.1.  AUTHORIZATION.

                  (a) The Agent is authorized to take such action on behalf of
         each of the Banks and to exercise all such powers as are hereunder and
         under any of the other Loan Documents and any related documents
         delegated to the Agent, together with such powers as are reasonably
         incident thereto, PROVIDED that no duties or responsibilities not
         expressly assumed herein or therein shall be implied to have been
         assumed by the Agent.

                  (b) The relationship between the Agent and each of the Banks
         is that of an independent contractor. The use of the term "Agent" is
         for convenience only and is used to describe, as a form of convention,
         the independent contractual relationship between the Agent and each of
         the Banks. Nothing contained in this Credit Agreement nor the other
         Loan Documents shall be construed to create an agency, trust or other
         fiduciary relationship between the Agent and any of the Banks.

                  (c) As an independent contractor empowered by the Banks to
         exercise certain rights and perform certain duties and responsibilities
         hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the Agent is nevertheless
         a "representative" of the Banks, as that term is defined in Article 1
         of the Uniform Commercial Code, for purposes of actions for the benefit
         of the Banks and the Agent with respect to all collateral security and
         guaranties contemplated by the Loan Documents. Such actions include the
         designation of the Agent as "secured party", "mortgagee" or the like on
         all financing statements and other documents and instruments, whether
         recorded or otherwise, relating to the attachment,





   55
                                      -49-


         perfection, priority or enforcement of any security interests,
         mortgages or deeds of trust in collateral security intended to secure
         the payment or performance of any of the Obligations, all for the
         benefit of the Banks and the Agent.

         13.2. EMPLOYEES AND AGENTS. The Agent may exercise its powers and
execute its duties by or through employees or agents and shall be entitled to
take, and to rely on, advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to its
rights and duties under this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The
Agent may utilize the services of such Persons as the Agent in its sole
discretion may reasonably determine, and all reasonable fees and expenses of any
such Persons shall be paid by the Borrower.

         13.3. NO LIABILITY. Neither the Agent nor any of its shareholders,
directors, officers or employees nor any other Person assisting them in their
duties nor any agent or employee thereof, shall be liable for any waiver,
consent or approval given or any action taken, or omitted to be taken, in good
faith by it or them hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, or in
connection herewith or therewith, or be responsible for the consequences of any
oversight or error of judgment whatsoever, except that the Agent or such other
Person, as the case may be, may be liable for losses due to its willful
misconduct or gross negligence.

         13.4. NO REPRESENTATIONS.

                  13.4.1. GENERAL. The Agent shall not be responsible for the
         execution or validity or enforceability of this Credit Agreement, the
         Revolving Credit Notes, any of the other Loan Documents or any
         instrument at any time constituting, or intended to constitute,
         collateral security for the Revolving Credit Notes, or for the value of
         any such collateral security or for the validity, enforceability or
         collectability of any such amounts owing with respect to the Revolving
         Credit Notes, or for any recitals or statements, warranties or
         representations made herein or in any of the other Loan Documents or in
         any certificate or instrument hereafter furnished to it by or on behalf
         of the Borrower, or be bound to ascertain or inquire as to the
         performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions, covenants or
         agreements herein or in any instrument at any time constituting, or
         intended to constitute, collateral security for the Revolving Credit
         Notes or to inspect any of the properties, books or records of the
         Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries. The Agent shall not be bound to
         ascertain whether any notice, consent, waiver or request delivered to
         it by the Borrower or any holder of any of the Revolving Credit Notes
         shall have been duly authorized or is true, accurate and complete. The
         Agent has not made nor does it now make any representations or
         warranties, express or implied, nor does it assume any liability to the
         Banks, with respect to the credit worthiness or financial conditions of
         the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries. Each Bank acknowledges that it
         has, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other
         Bank, and based upon such information and



   56
                                      -50-


         documents as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis
         and decision to enter into this Credit Agreement.

                  13.4.2. CLOSING DOCUMENTATION, ETC. For purposes of
         determining compliance with the conditions set forth in ss.9, each Bank
         that has executed this Credit Agreement shall be deemed to have
         consented to, approved or accepted, or to be satisfied with, each
         document and matter either sent, or made available, by the Agent to
         such Bank for consent, approval, acceptance or satisfaction, or
         required thereunder to be to be consent to or approved by or acceptable
         or satisfactory to such Bank, unless an officer of the Agent active
         upon the Borrower's account shall have received notice from such Bank
         prior to the Closing Date specifying such Bank's objection thereto and
         such objection shall not have been withdrawn by notice to the Agent to
         such effect on or prior to the Closing Date.

         13.5. PAYMENTS.

                  13.5.1. PAYMENTS TO AGENT. A payment by the Borrower to the
         Agent hereunder or any of the other Loan Documents for the account of
         any Bank shall constitute a payment to such Bank. The Agent agrees
         promptly to distribute to each Bank such Bank's PRO RATA share of
         payments received by the Agent for the account of the Banks except as
         otherwise expressly provided herein or in any of the other Loan
         Documents.

                  13.5.2. DISTRIBUTION BY AGENT. If in the opinion of the Agent
         the distribution of any amount received by it in such capacity
         hereunder, under the Revolving Credit Notes or under any of the other
         Loan Documents might involve it in liability, it may refrain from
         making distribution until its right to make distribution shall have
         been adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction. If a court of
         competent jurisdiction shall adjudge that any amount received and
         distributed by the Agent is to be repaid, each Person to whom any such
         distribution shall have been made shall either repay to the Agent its
         proportionate share of the amount so adjudged to be repaid or shall pay
         over the same in such manner and to such Persons as shall be determined
         by such court.

                  13.5.3. DELINQUENT BANKS. Notwithstanding anything to the
         contrary contained in this Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan
         Documents, any Bank that fails (i) to make available to the Agent its
         PRO RATA share of any Loan or (ii) to comply with the provisions of
         ss.12 with respect to making dispositions and arrangements with the
         other Banks, where such Bank's share of any payment received, whether
         by setoff or otherwise, is in excess of its PRO RATA share of such
         payments due and payable to all of the Banks, in each case as, when and
         to the full extent required by the provisions of this Credit Agreement,
         shall be deemed delinquent (a "Delinquent Bank") and shall be deemed a
         Delinquent


   57
                                      -51-


         Bank until such time as such delinquency is satisfied. A Delinquent
         Bank shall be deemed to have assigned any and all payments due to it
         from the Borrower, whether on account of outstanding Loans, interest,
         fees or otherwise, to the remaining nondelinquent Banks for application
         to, and reduction of, their respective PRO RATA shares of all
         outstanding Loans. The Delinquent Bank hereby authorizes the Agent to
         distribute such payments to the nondelinquent Banks in proportion to
         their respective PRO RATA shares of all outstanding Loans. A Delinquent
         Bank shall be deemed to have satisfied in full a delinquency when and
         if, as a result of application of the assigned payments to all
         outstanding Loans of the nondelinquent Banks, the Banks' respective PRO
         RATA shares of all outstanding Loans have returned to those in effect
         immediately prior to such delinquency and without giving effect to the
         nonpayment causing such delinquency.

         13.6. HOLDERS OF REVOLVING CREDIT NOTES. The Agent may deem and treat
the payee of any Revolving Credit Note as the absolute owner thereof for all
purposes hereof until it shall have been furnished in writing with a different
name by such payee or by a subsequent holder.

         13.7. INDEMNITY. The Banks ratably agree hereby to indemnify and hold
harmless the Agent and its Affiliates from and against any and all claims,
actions and suits (whether groundless or otherwise), losses, damages, costs,
expenses (including any expenses for which the Agent or such Affiliate has not
been reimbursed by the Borrower as required by ss.14), and liabilities of every
nature and character arising out of or related to this Credit Agreement, the
Revolving Credit Notes, or any of the other Loan Documents or the transactions
contemplated or evidenced hereby or thereby, or the Agent's actions taken
hereunder or thereunder, except to the extent that any of the same shall be
directly caused by the Agent's willful misconduct or gross negligence.

         13.8. AGENT AS BANK. In its individual capacity, BKB shall have the
same obligations and the same rights, powers and privileges in respect to its
Commitment and the Loans made by it, and as the holder of any of the Revolving
Credit Notes, as it would have were it not also the Agent.

         13.9. RESIGNATION. The Agent may resign at any time by giving sixty
(60) days prior written notice thereof to the Banks and the Borrower. Upon any
such resignation, the Majority Banks shall have the right to appoint a successor
Agent. Unless a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, such successor Agent shall be reasonably acceptable to the Borrower.
If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Majority Banks and
shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring
Agent's giving of notice of resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf
of the Banks, appoint a successor Agent, which shall be a financial institution
having a rating of not less than A or its equivalent by Standard & Poor's
Corporation. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a
successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become
vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the


   58
                                      -52-


retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and
obligations hereunder. After any retiring Agent's resignation, the provisions of
this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents 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 Agent.

         13.10. NOTIFICATION OF DEFAULTS AND EVENTS OF DEFAULT. Each Bank hereby
agrees that, upon learning of the existence of a Default or an Event of Default,
it shall promptly notify the Agent thereof. The Agent hereby agrees that upon
receipt of any notice under this ss.13.10 it shall promptly notify the other
Banks of the existence of such Default or Event of Default.

                        14. EXPENSES AND INDEMNIFICATION.

         14.1. EXPENSES. The Borrower agrees to pay (i) the reasonable costs of
producing and reproducing this Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents and
the other agreements and instruments mentioned herein, (ii) any taxes (including
any interest and penalties in respect thereto) payable by the Agent or any of
the Banks (other than taxes based upon the Agent's or any Bank's net income) on
or with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Credit Agreement (the
Borrower hereby agreeing to indemnify the Agent and each Bank with respect
thereto), (iii) the reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of the Agent's
Special Counsel or any local counsel to the Agent incurred in connection with
the preparation, syndication, administration or interpretation of the Loan

the Obligations or pursuant to any terms of such Loan Document for providing for
such cancellation, (iv) the fees, expenses and disbursements of the Agent or any

and bank charges, including bank charges for returned checks, incurred by the
Agent in establishing, maintaining or handling lock box accounts and other
accounts for the collection of any of the Collateral; (vi) all reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses (including without limitation reasonable attorneys' fees
and costs, which attorneys may be employees of any Bank or the Agent, and
reasonable consulting, accounting, appraisal, investment banking and similar
professional fees and charges) incurred by any Bank or the Agent in connection
with (A) the enforcement of or preservation of rights under any of the Loan
Documents against the Borrower or the administration thereof after the
occurrence of a Default or Event of Default and (B) any litigation, proceeding
or dispute whether arising hereunder or otherwise, in any way related to any
Bank's or the Agent's relationship with the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries,
(vii) all reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of any Bank or the Agent
incurred in connection with UCC searches or UCC filings and (viii) any fees,

   59
                                      -53-


         14.2. INDEMNIFICATION. The Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold
harmless the Agent, its Affiliates and the Banks from and against any and all
claims, actions and suits whether groundless or otherwise, and from and against
any and all liabilities, losses, damages and expenses of every nature and
character arising out of this Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan
Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby including, without limitation,
(i) any actual or proposed use by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries of the
proceeds of any of the Loans, (ii) the reversal or withdrawal of any provisional
credits granted by the Agent upon the transfer of funds from lock box, bank
agency or concentration accounts or in connection with the provisional honoring
of checks or other items, (iii) the Borrower entering into or performing this
Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or (iv) with respect to the
Borrower and its respective properties and assets, the violation of any
Environmental Law, the presence, disposal, escape, seepage, leakage, spillage,
discharge, emission, release or threatened release of any Hazardous Substances
or any action, suit, proceeding or investigation brought or threatened with
respect to any Hazardous Substances (including, but not limited to, claims with
respect to wrongful death, personal injury or damage to property), in each case
including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel
and allocated costs of internal counsel incurred in connection with any such
investigation, litigation or other proceeding; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the
Borrower shall not be liable for any such liabilities, losses, damages or
expenses to the extent arising directly from the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of the Person seeking indemnification therefor. In litigation, or the
preparation therefor, the Banks and the Agent and its Affiliates shall be
entitled to select their own counsel and, in addition to the foregoing
indemnity, the Borrower agrees to pay promptly the reasonable fees and expenses
of such counsel. If, and to the extent that the obligations of the Borrower
under this ss.14.2 are unenforceable for any reason, the Borrower hereby agrees
to make the maximum contribution to the payment in satisfaction of such

behalf of itself and each of its Affiliates, directors, officers, employees and
representatives, to use reasonable precautions to keep confidential, in
accordance with their customary procedures for handling confidential information

Credit Agreement or the Revolving Credit Notes or any of the other Loan

         the Borrower or any other Person primarily or secondarily liable in
         respect of any of the Obligations, or the performance or observance by
         the Borrower or any other Person primarily or secondarily liable in

                  (d) such assignee will, independently and without reliance
         upon the assigning Bank, the Agent 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 Credit Agreement;

                  (e) such assignee represents and warrants that it is an
         Eligible Assignee;

                  (f) such assignee appoints and authorizes the Agent to take
         such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under

         with their terms all of the obligations that by the terms of this
         Credit Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Bank; and


   63
                                      -57-


                  (h) such assignee represents and warrants that it is legally
         authorized to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance.

Acceptance delivered to it and a register or similar list (the "Register") for
the recordation of the names and addresses of the Banks and the Commitment
Percentage of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to the Banks from time to
time. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of
manifest error, and the Borrower, the Agent and the Banks may treat each Person
whose name is recorded in the Register as a Bank hereunder for all purposes of
this Credit Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the
Borrower and the Banks at any reasonable time and from time to time upon
reasonable prior notice. Upon each such recordation, the assigning Bank agrees
to pay to the Agent a registration fee in the sum of $3,500.

         17.4. NEW REVOLVING CREDIT NOTES. Upon its receipt of an Assignment and
Acceptance executed by the parties to such assignment, together with each
Revolving Credit Note subject to such assignment, the Agent shall (i) record the
information contained therein in the Register, and (ii) give prompt notice
thereof to the Borrower and the Banks (other than the assigning Bank). Within
five (5) Business Days after receipt of such notice, the Borrower, at its own
expense, shall execute and deliver to the Agent, in exchange for each
surrendered Revolving Credit Note, a new Revolving Credit Note to the order of
such Eligible Assignee in an amount equal to the amount assumed by such Eligible
Assignee pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance and, if the assigning Bank
has retained some portion of its obligations hereunder, a new Revolving Credit
Note to the order of the assigning Bank in an amount equal to the amount
retained by it hereunder. Such new Revolving Credit Notes shall provide that
they are replacements for the surrendered Revolving Credit Notes, shall be in an
aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the
surrendered Revolving Credit Notes, shall be dated the effective date of such
Assignment and Acceptance and shall otherwise be in substantially the form of
the assigned Revolving Credit Notes. Within five (5) days of issuance of any new
Revolving Credit Notes pursuant to this ss.17.4, the Borrower shall deliver an
opinion of counsel, addressed to the Banks and the Agent, relating to the due
authorization, execution and delivery of such new Revolving Credit Notes and the
legality, validity and binding effect thereof, in form and substance
satisfactory to the Banks. The surrendered Revolving Credit Notes shall be
cancelled and returned to the Borrower.

         17.5. PARTICIPATIONS. Each Bank may sell participations to one or more
banks or other entities in all or a portion of such Bank's rights and
obligations under this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents; PROVIDED
that (i) each such participation shall be in an amount of not less than
$5,000,000 of the selling Bank's commitment, (ii) any such sale or participation
shall not affect the rights and duties of the selling Bank hereunder to the
Borrower and (iii) the only rights granted to the participant pursuant to such
participation arrangements with respect to waivers, amendments or modifications
of the




   64
                                      -58-


Loan Documents shall be the rights to approve waivers, amendments or
modifications that would reduce the principal of or the interest rate on any
Loans, extend the term or increase the amount of the Commitment of such Bank as
it relates to such participant, reduce the amount of any commitment fees or
Letter of Credit Fees to which such participant is entitled or extend any
regularly scheduled payment date for principal or interest.

         17.6. DISCLOSURE. The Borrower agrees that in addition to disclosures
made in accordance with standard and customary banking practices any Bank may
disclose information obtained by such Bank pursuant to this Credit Agreement to
assignees or participants and potential assignees or participants hereunder;
PROVIDED that such assignees or participants or potential assignees or
participants shall agree (i) to treat in confidence such information unless such
information otherwise becomes public knowledge, (ii) not to disclose such
information to a third party, except as required by law or legal process and
(iii) not to make use of such information for purposes of transactions unrelated
to such contemplated assignment or participation. For purposes of this ss.19.6
an assignee or participant or potential assignee or participant may include a
counterparty with whom such Bank has entered into or potentially might enter
into a derivative contract referenced to credit or other risks or events arising
under this Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document.

         17.7. ASSIGNEE OR PARTICIPANT AFFILIATED WITH THE BORROWER. If any
assignee Bank is an Affiliate of the Borrower, then any such assignee Bank shall
have no right to vote as a Bank hereunder or under any of the other Loan
Documents for purposes of granting consents or waivers or for purposes of
agreeing to amendments or other modifications to any of the Loan Documents or
for purposes of making requests to the Agent pursuant to ss.13.1 or ss.13.2, and
the determination of the Majority Banks shall for all purposes of this Credit
Agreement and the other Loan Documents be made without regard to such assignee
Bank's interest in any of the Loans. If any Bank sells a participating interest
in any of the Loans to a participant, and such participant is the Borrower or an
Affiliate of the Borrower, then such transferor Bank shall promptly notify the
Agent of the sale of such participation. A transferor Bank shall have no right
to vote as a Bank hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents for
purposes of granting consents or waivers or for purposes of agreeing to
amendments or modifications to any of the Loan Documents or for purposes of
making requests to the Agent pursuant to ss.13.1 or ss.13.2 to the extent that
such participation is beneficially owned by the Borrower or any Affiliate of the
Borrower, and the determination of the Majority Banks shall for all purposes of
this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents be made without regard to the
interest of such transferor Bank in the Loans to the extent of such
participation.

         17.8. MISCELLANEOUS ASSIGNMENT PROVISIONS. Any assigning Bank shall
retain its rights to be indemnified pursuant to ss.14 with respect to any claims
or actions arising prior to the date of such assignment. If any assignee Bank is
not incorporated under the laws of the United States of America or any state
thereof, it shall, prior to the date on which any interest or fees are payable






   65
                                      -59-


hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents for its account, deliver to
the Borrower and the Agent certification as to its exemption from deduction or
withholding of any United States federal income taxes. If any Reference Bank
transfers all of its interest, rights and obligations under this Credit
Agreement, the Agent shall, in consultation with the Borrower and with the
consent of the Borrower and the Majority Banks, appoint another Bank to act as a
Reference Bank hereunder. Anything contained in this ss.17 to the contrary
notwithstanding, (a) any Bank may at any time pledge all or any portion of its
interest and rights under this Credit Agreement (including all or any portion of
its Revolving Credit Notes) to any of the twelve Federal Reserve Banks organized
under ss.4 of the Federal Reserve Act, 12 U.S.C. ss.341 and (b) any Bank that is
a fund that invests in bank loans may at any time pledge all or any portion of
its interests and rights with respect to its Term Note to any trustee for, or
any other representative of, holders of obligations owed or securities issued by
such fund as security for such obligations or securities, PROVIDED that any
foreclosure or similar action by such trustee or other representative shall be
subject to the other provisions of this ss.18. No such pledge or the enforcement
thereof shall release the pledgor Bank from its obligations hereunder or under
any of the other Loan Documents.

         17.9. ASSIGNMENT BY BORROWER. The Borrower shall not assign or transfer
any of its rights or obligations under any of the Loan Documents without the
prior written consent of each of the Banks.
