 in, and may in the future engage in, investment banking, commercial banking and other commercial dealings in the ordinary course of business with us. They have received, and in the future may receive, customary fees and commissions for these transactions. In the ordinary course of their various business activities, the underwriters and their respective affiliates may make or hold a broad array of investments and actively trade debt and equity securities (or related derivative securities) and financial instruments (including bank loans) for their own account and for the accounts of their customers, and such investment and securities activities may involve securities and/or instruments of ours or our affiliates. For example, J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., an affiliate of J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, acts as administrative agent under the Term Loan Credit Agreement and the Revolving Credit Agreement, and certain of the underwriters and/or their respective affiliates act as lenders, agents and/or arrangers under the Term Loan Credit Agreement and the Revolving Credit Agreement. Affiliates of the underwriters have also provided commitments under the Bridge Commitment, and the offering of the notes will reduce the commitments of such affiliates of the underwriters under the Bridge Commitment. In addition, U.S. Bancorp Investments, Inc., one of the underwriters, is an affiliate of the trustee.

In the ordinary course of their various business activities, the underwriters and their respective affiliates may make or hold a broad array of investments and actively trade debt and equity securities (or related derivative securities) and financial instruments (which may include bank loans and/or credit default swaps) for their own account and for the accounts of their customers and may at any time hold long and short positions in such securities and instruments. Such investment and securities activities may involve our securities and instruments. If any of the underwriters or their affiliates have a lending relationship with us, certain of those underwriters or their affiliates routinely hedge, and certain other of those underwriters or their affiliates may hedge, their credit exposure to us consistent with their customary risk management policies. Typically, these underwriters and their affiliates would hedge such exposure by entering into transactions which consist of either the purchase of credit default swaps or the creation of short positions in our securities, including potentially the notes offered hereby.
