Bank or any corporation controlling the Bank, with any request, guideline or
directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of
any such central bank or other authority, affects or would affect the amount of
capital required or expected to be maintained by the Bank or any corporation
controlling the Bank and (taking into consideration the Bank's or such

consequence of its obligations under this Agreement, then, upon demand of the
Bank, the Account Party shall immediately pay to the Bank, from time to time as
specified by the Bank, additional amounts sufficient to compensate the Bank for
such increase; provided, however, that the Account Party shall not be required

law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency:

               (i)  shall subject the Bank to any tax, duty or other charge with
     respect to the Credit Obligations, or shall change the basis of taxation of

issuing or maintaining the Commitment or the Letter of Credit or paying any
Draw, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by the Bank
under this Agreement, by an amount deemed by the Bank to be material, then,
within 30 days after demand by the Bank, the Account Party agrees to pay or
cause to be paid to the Bank such additional amount or amounts as will
compensate the Bank for such increased cost or reduction.

Section and setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it

fees, as the case may be.
