          advance rates so established with respect to each Borrower may not
          be increased without the prior written consent of the Banks.

                  The lesser of the amounts determined with respect to the
          Borrower pursuant to paragraphs (a) or (b) of this Section 9.01 is
          sometimes referred to herein as the Borrower's "Borrowing Base.""

                  "(vii) no increase in the advance rates for any Borrower

         (o) EXHIBITS A through H annexed to the Credit Agreement are hereby

         SECTION 2. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. In order to induce the Banks
and the Agents to enter into this Second Amendment, each Borrower, severally and
not jointly, makes the following representations and warranties, all of which
shall survive the execution and delivery of this Second Amendment:

         (a) The Borrower has adequate power and authority to execute and

similar type of policy or restriction to which the Borrower is subject, or of
any agreement, instrument, judgment, decree, order, statute, rule or

assets of the Borrower pursuant to any such term.

         (c) This Second Amendment effectively amends the Credit Agreement in
accordance with the terms hereof. The obligations of the Borrower hereunder and

         (d) All of the representations and warranties made by the Borrower
in the Credit Agreement, including those in Article VII thereof, are true and
correct on the date hereof as if made on and as of the date hereof and are so
repeated herein, except that representations and warranties of financial
statements or conditions as of an earlier date relate solely to such earlier
date.

         (e) Upon the execution and delivery of this Second Amendment and the
other agreements, documents and instruments executed in connection herewith or
contemplated hereby, and the satisfaction of each of the conditions precedent

         (b) The Operations Agent shall have received (i) from each Existing

its charter, articles of association, declaration of trust and bylaws, as

         (c) The Operations Agent shall have received from each Borrower (with

the transactions contemplated by this Second Amendment and the Credit Agreement,
as amended hereby;

         (d) The Operations Agent shall have received for itself and each of the
other Banks a duly completed and executed Federal Reserve Form F.R. U-1 from
each Borrower;

         (e) The Banks and the Operations Agent shall have received from counsel
to the Borrowers an opinion(s) addressed to the Banks and the Operations Agent,

Banks pursuant to Section 7.02 or 8.01 of the Credit Agreement;

         (g) Without, in any way, limiting the scope of paragraph (f) above, the

<Page>

     (i)  Each Borrower shall have performed and complied in all material
respects with all terms and conditions herein required to be performed or

     SECTION 4. RATIFICATION OF EXISTING AGREEMENTS, ETC.  All obligations of
each Borrower to the Banks and the Agents under or in respect of the Credit
Agreement and the other Loan Documents, except as otherwise expressly
modified or contemplated to be modified in this Second Amendment, are hereby
ratified and confirmed in all respects, and as so ratified and confirmed
constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the Borrowers enforceable
against the Borrowers in accordance with their respective terms. By executing
this Second Amendment, each Bank and the Agents (i) consent to the
substitution of State Street Bank as Custodian for each Existing Borrower
that is an open-end fund (other than Credit Suisse Warburg Pincus Long-Short
Market Neutral Fund) as to which State Street Bank had not previously served
as Custodian and (ii) waive any event of termination under Section 14.02 of
the Credit Agreement that may have occurred and be continuing as a
consequence of the aforenamed Borrowers' failure to timely notify the
Operations Agent and each Bank of such substitution and to obtain a written
acknowledgment from the Operations Agent that such substitution would not
constitute an event of termination under said Section 14.02. Furthermore, by
executing this Second Amendment, each Borrower, the Banks and the Agents
agree to waive the notice requirement of Section 14.01 of the Credit
Agreement, and agree to the renewal of the Commitments as amended hereby for
a new 364-day period ending June 19, 2002, which shall be an "Expiration
Date" as defined in Section 14.01 of the Credit Agreement, as amended hereby.
Each Existing Borrower, the Banks and the Agents further agree that each Loan
outstanding to a Borrower under the Credit Agreement as of the date hereof
shall be deemed to be a Loan outstanding to such Borrower under the Credit
Agreement as amended by this Second Amendment. Furthermore, by its execution
of this Second Amendment each Additional Borrower agrees to be bound by the
terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement, as amended hereby, in all
respects as a Borrower thereunder and hereby assumes all of the obligations
of a Borrower thereunder.


                                       7
<Page>

     SECTION 5.  MISCELLANEOUS.

     (a)  This Second Amendment may be executed on separate counterparts by
the parties hereto, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an
original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same agreement.

     (b)  This Second Amendment and the rights and obligations of the
parties hereunder shall be construed in accordance with and be governed by
the laws of the State of New York (without giving effect to the conflict of
laws principles thereof).

     (c)  The headings of the several sections of this Second Amendment are
inserted for convenience only and shall not in any way effect the meaning or
construction of any provision of this Second Amendment.

     (d)  This Second Amendment and each of the other agreements, documents
and instruments executed and delivered in connection herewith or contemplated
hereby constitute Loan Documents under and as defined in the Credit Agreement.

     SECTION 6.  LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.  Notice is hereby given that this
Second Amendment has been executed by an officer of each Borrower, in that
capacity and not individually. The Banks acknowledge that the obligations of
or arising out of this Second Amendment and the Credit Agreement, as amended
hereby, are not binding upon any of the Borrowers' trustees, directors,
officers, employees, agents or shareholders individually, but are binding
solely upon the assets and property of the Borrowers. Notwithstanding any
other provision of this Second Amendment, the Credit Agreement, as amended
hereby, or any other Loan Document to the contrary, to the extent that this
Second Amendment is executed by an Investment Company on behalf of one or
more Portfolios of such Investment Company, as a Borrower(s) hereunder, the
Banks further acknowledge that the obligations of or arising out of this
Second Amendment and the Credit Agreement, as amended hereby, are binding
upon the assets and property of the Portfolio on whose behalf an Investment
Company has executed this instrument and that, with respect to each such
Portfolio, such obligations are several but not joint. Without limiting the
foregoing, the obligations of the Borrowers are several, not joint. This
Second Amendment shall be deemed to constitute a separate agreement between
each Borrower and the other parties hereto (other than the other Borrowers) as
if such Borrower had executed a separate agreement naming only itself and the
other parties hereto (other than the other Borrowers) as parties. No
Borrower shall be liable for the obligations (whether for principal,
interest, fees, expenses or otherwise) of any other Borrower hereunder. In the
case of each Borrower that is an Investment Company organized as a
Massachusetts business trust or Portfolio of such an Investment Company, the
declarations of trust for each such trust refer to the trustees collectively as
trustees and not as individuals personally, and the declarations of trust
provide that no shareholder, trustee, officer, employee or agent of the
trust shall be subject to claims against or obligations of the trust to any
extent whatsoever, but that the trust estate only shall be liable.

                                       8

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Second
Amendment as a sealed instrument as of the day and year first above written.
