Administrative Agent shall fail to obtain consent to any request for an
additional currency under
this Section 1.05, the Administrative Agent shall promptly so notify the
Company. Any
specified currency of an Existing Letter of Credit that is neither Dollars nor
one of the
Alternative Currencies specifically listed in the definition of "Alternative
Currency" shall be
deemed an Alternative Currency with respect to such Existing Letter of Credit
only.
      1.06        Change of Currency.
      (a) Each obligation of the Borrowers to make a payment denominated in the
national
currency unit of any member state of the European Union that adopts the Euro as
its lawful
currency after the date hereof shall be redenominated into Euro at the time of
such adoption (in
accordance with the EMU Legislation). If, in relation to the currency of any
such member state,
the basis of accrual of interest expressed in this Agreement in respect of that
currency shall be
inconsistent with any convention or practice in the London interbank market for
the basis of
accrual of interest in respect of the Euro, such expressed basis shall be
replaced by such
convention or practice with effect from the date on which such member state
adopts the Euro as
its lawful currency; provided that if any Committed Borrowing in the currency of
such member
state is outstanding immediately prior to such date, such replacement shall take
effect, with
respect to such Committed Borrowing, at the end of the then current Interest
Period.
      (b)        Each provision of this Agreement shall be subject to such
reasonable changes of
construction as either Agent may from time to time specify to be appropriate to
reflect the
adoption of the Euro by any member state of the European Union and any relevant
market
conventions or practices relating to the Euro.
      (c)        Each provision of this Agreement also shall be subject to such
reasonable changes
of construction as either Agent may from time to time specify to be appropriate
to reflect a
change in currency of any other country and any relevant market conventions or
practices
relating to the change in currency.
      1.07        Times of Day.
      Unless otherwise specified, all references herein to times of day shall be
references to
Eastern time (daylight or standard, as applicable), in the case of references
relating to the
Primary Subfacility, or Singapore time, in the case of references relating to
the Singapore
Subfacility.
      1.08        Letter of Credit Amounts.
      Unless otherwise specified herein, the amount of a Letter of Credit at any
time shall be
deemed to be the Dollar Equivalent of the stated amount of such Letter of Credit
in effect at such
time; provided, however, that with respect to any Letter of Credit that, by its
terms or the terms
of any Issuer Document related thereto, provides for one or more automatic
increases in the
stated amount thereof, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be
the Dollar
Equivalent of the maximum stated amount of such Letter of Credit after giving
effect to all such
increases, whether or not such maximum stated amount is in effect at such time.
ARTICLE II.
THE COMMITMENTS AND CREDIT EXTENSIONS
      2.01        Committed Loans.
      (a) Committed Primary Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth
herein, each
Primary Lender severally agrees to make loans (each such loan, a "Committed
Primary Loan") to
the Primary Borrowers in Dollars or in one or more Alternative Currencies from
time to time, on
any Business Day during the Availability Period, in an aggregate amount not to
exceed at any
time outstanding the amount of such Lender's Primary Commitment; provided,
however, that
after giving effect to any Committed Borrowing under this subsection (a), (i)
the Total Primary
Outstandings shall not exceed the Aggregate Primary Commitments, and (ii) the
aggregate
Outstanding Amount of the Committed Primary Loans of any Primary Lender, plus
such Primary
Lender's Applicable Primary Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of all L/C
Obligations, plus
such Primary Lender's Applicable Primary Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of
all Swing
Line Loans shall not exceed such Primary Lender's Primary Commitment. Within the
limits of
each Primary Lender's Primary Commitment, and subject to the other terms and
conditions
hereof, the Primary Borrowers may borrow under this Section 2.01(a), prepay
under Section
2.05, and reborrow under this Section 2.01. Committed Primary Loans may be Base
Rate Loans
or Eurocurrency Rate Loans, as further provided herein.
      (b)        Committed Singapore Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions
set forth herein,
each Singapore Lender severally agrees to make loans (each such Loan, a
"Committed Singapore
Loan") to the Singapore Borrowers in Dollars or in one or more Alternative
Currencies from
time to time, on any Business Day during the Availability Period, in an
aggregate amount not to
exceed at any time outstanding the amount of such Singapore Lender's Singapore
Commitment;
provided, however, that after giving effect to any Committed Borrowing under
this
subsection (b), (i) the Total Singapore Outstandings shall not exceed the
Aggregate Singapore
Commitments, and (ii) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Committed
Singapore Loans of
any Singapore Lender shall not exceed such Singapore Lender's Singapore
Commitment.
Within the limits of each Singapore Lender's Singapore Commitment, and subject
to the other
terms and conditions hereof, the Singapore Borrowers may borrow under this
Section 2.01(b),
prepay under Section 2.05, and reborrow under this Section 2.01. Committed
Singapore Loans
may be Base Rate Loans or Eurocurrency Rate Loans, as further provided herein.
      2.02        Borrowings, Conversions and Continuations of Committed Loans.
      (a)        Each Committed Borrowing, each conversion of Committed Loans
from one
Type to the other, and each continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be
made upon the
Company's irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of
any Committed
Singapore Loan, the Singapore Administrative Agent), which may be given by
telephone. Each
such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of
any Committed
Singapore Loan, the Singapore Administrative Agent) not later than 11:00 a.m.(i)
in the case of
Loans under the Singapore Subfacility, four Business Days (or five Business Days
in the case of
a Special Notice Currency) and (ii) otherwise, (A) three Business Days prior to
the requested
date of any Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate
Loans
denominated in Dollars or of any conversion of Eurocurrency Rate Loans
denominated in
Dollars to Base Rate Committed Loans, (B) four Business Days (or five Business
Days in the
case of a Special Notice Currency) prior to the requested date of any Borrowing
or continuation
of Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in Alternative Currencies, and (C) on the
requested
date of any Borrowing of Base Rate Committed Loans. Each telephonic notice by
the Company
pursuant to this Section 2.02(a) must be confirmed promptly by delivery to the
Administrative
Agent (or, if applicable, the Agents) of a written Committed Loan Notice,
appropriately
completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Company. Each Borrowing of,
conversion
to or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of
$5,000,000 or a
whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. Except as provided in Sections
2.03(c) and
2.04(c), each Committed Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Committed Loans
shall be in
a principal amount of $500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess
thereof. Each
Committed Loan Notice (whether telephonic or written) shall specify (i) whether
the Company is
requesting a Committed Borrowing, a conversion of Committed Loans from one Type
to the
other, or a continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, (ii) the requested date of
the Borrowing,
conversion or continuation, as the case may be (which shall be a Business Day),
(iii) the
principal amount of Committed Loans to be borrowed, converted or continued, (iv)
the Type of
Committed Loans to be borrowed or to which existing Committed Loans are to be
converted,
(v) if applicable, the duration of the Interest Period with respect thereto,
(vi) the currency of the
Committed Loans to be borrowed, (vii) whether each Committed Loan to be advanced
in such
Committed Borrowing is to be a Committed Primary Loan or a Committed Singapore
Loan, and
(viii) if applicable, the Designated Borrower. If the Company fails to specify a
currency in a
Committed Loan Notice requesting a Borrowing, then the Committed Loans so
requested shall
be made in Dollars. If the Company fails to specify a Type of Committed Loan in
a Committed
Loan Notice or if the Company fails to give a timely notice requesting a
conversion or
continuation, then the applicable Committed Loans shall be made as, or converted
to, Base Rate
Loans; provided, however, that in the case of a failure to timely request a
continuation of
Committed Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency, such Loans shall be
continued as
Eurocurrency Rate Loans in their original currency with an Interest Period of
one month. Any
automatic conversion to Base Rate Loans shall be effective as of the last day of
the Interest
Period then in effect with respect to the applicable Eurocurrency Rate Loans. If
the Company
requests a Borrowing of, conversion to, or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate
Loans in any such
Committed Loan Notice, but fails to specify an Interest Period, it will be
deemed to have
specified an Interest Period of one month. If the Company fails to specify
whether any
Committed Loan to be advanced in such Committed Borrowing is to be a Committed
Primary
Loan or a Committed Singapore Loan, such Committed Loan shall be a Committed
Primary
Loan. No Committed Loan may be converted into or continued as a Committed Loan
denominated in a different currency, but instead must be prepaid in the original
currency of such
Committed Loan and reborrowed in the other currency.
      (b)        Following receipt of a Committed Loan Notice, each applicable
Agent shall
promptly notify each applicable Lender of the amount (and currency) of its Share
of the
applicable Committed Loans, and if no timely notice of a conversion or
continuation is provided
by the Company, each applicable Agent shall notify each applicable Lender of the
details of any
automatic conversion to Base Rate Loans or continuation of Committed Loans
denominated in a
currency other than Dollars, in each case as described in the preceding
subsection. In the case of
a Committed Borrowing, each applicable Lender shall make the amount of its
Committed Loan
available to the Administrative Agent (in the case of Committed Primary Loans)
or the
Singapore Administrative Agent (in the case of Committed Singapore Loans) in
Same Day
Funds at the Administrative Agent's Office or the Singapore Administrative
Agent's Office, as
the case may be, for the applicable currency not later than 1:00 p.m., in the
case of any
Committed Loan denominated in Dollars, and not later than the Applicable Time
specified by the
applicable Agent in the case of any Committed Loan in an Alternative Currency,
in each case on
the Business Day specified in the applicable Committed Loan Notice. Upon
satisfaction of the
applicable conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (and, if such Borrowing is the
initial Credit
Extension, Section 4.01), the applicable Agent shall make all funds so received
available to the
Company or the other applicable Borrower in like funds as received by such Agent
either by
(i) crediting the account of such Borrower on the books of Bank of America, in
the case of
Borrowings under the Primary Subfacility, or Bank of America Singapore, in the
case of
Borrowings under the Singapore Subfacility, with the amount of such funds or
(ii) wire transfer
of such funds, in each case in accordance with instructions provided to (and
reasonably
acceptable to) such Agent by the Company; provided, however, that if, on the
date the
Committed Loan Notice with respect to any Borrowing under the Primary
Subfacility
denominated in Dollars is given by the Company, there are L/C Borrowings
outstanding, then the
proceeds of such Borrowing, first, shall be applied to the payment in full of
any such L/C
Borrowings, and, second, shall be made available to the applicable Borrower as
provided above.
      (c)        Except as otherwise provided herein, a Eurocurrency Rate Loan
may be continued
or converted only on the last day of an Interest Period for such Eurocurrency
Rate Loan. During
the existence of a Default, no Loans may be requested as, converted to or
continued as
Eurocurrency Rate Loans (whether in Dollars or any Alternative Currency) without
the consent
of the Required Lenders, and the Required Lenders may demand that any or all of
the then
outstanding Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency be
prepaid, or
redenominated into Dollars in the amount of the Dollar Equivalent thereof, on
the last day of the
then current Interest Period with respect thereto.
      (d)        The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Singapore
Administrative
Agent, the Company and the Lenders of the interest rate applicable to any
Interest Period for
Eurocurrency Rate Loans upon determination of such interest rate. At any time
that Base Rate
Loans are outstanding, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Singapore
Administrative
Agent, the Company and the Lenders of any change in Bank of America's prime rate
used in
determining the Base Rate promptly following the public announcement of such
change.
      (e)        After giving effect to all Committed Borrowings, all
conversions of Committed
Loans from one Type to the other, and all continuations of Committed Loans as
the same Type,
there shall not be more than ten Interest Periods in effect with respect to
Committed Loans.
      2.03        Letters of Credit.
      (a)        The Letter of Credit Commitment.
      (i)        Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, (A) the
L/C Issuer
agrees, in reliance upon the agreements of the Primary Lenders set forth in this
Section
2.03, (1) from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the
Closing Date
until the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, to issue Letters of Credit
denominated in
Dollars or in one or more Alternative Currencies for the account of the Company
or its
Subsidiaries, and to amend or extend Letters of Credit previously issued by it,
in
accordance with subsection (b) below, and (2) to honor drawings under the
Letters of
Credit; and (B) the Primary Lenders severally agree to participate in Letters of
Credit
issued for the account of the Company or its Subsidiaries and any drawings
thereunder;
provided that after giving effect to any L/C Credit Extension with respect to
any Letter of
Credit, (x) the Total Primary Outstandings shall not exceed the Aggregate
Primary
Commitments, (y) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Committed Primary Loans
of any Primary Lender, plus such Primary Lender's Applicable Primary Percentage
of the
Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations, plus such Primary Lender's Applicable
Primary Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of all Swing Line Loans shall not
exceed
such Primary Lender's Primary Commitment, and (z) the Outstanding Amount of the
L/C
Obligations shall not exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit. Each request by the
Company
for the issuance or amendment of a Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be a
representation by the Company that the L/C Credit Extension so requested
complies with
the conditions set forth in the proviso to the preceding sentence. Within the
foregoing
limits, and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Company's ability to
obtain
Letters of Credit shall be fully revolving, and accordingly the Company may,
during the
foregoing period, obtain Letters of Credit to replace Letters of Credit that
have expired or
that have been drawn upon and reimbursed. All Existing Letters of Credit shall
be
deemed to have been issued pursuant hereto, and from and after the Closing Date
shall be
subject to and governed by the terms and conditions hereof.
      (ii)        The L/C Issuer shall not issue any Letter of Credit, if:
      (A)        subject to Section 2.03(b)(iii), the expiry date of such
requested
Letter of Credit would occur more than twelve months after the date of issuance
or last extension, unless the Required Primary Lenders have approved such expiry
date; or
      (B)        the expiry date of such requested Letter of Credit would occur
after
the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, unless all the Primary Lenders have
approved such expiry date.
      (iii)        The L/C Issuer shall not be under any obligation to issue any
Letter of
Credit if:
      (A)        any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or
arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain the L/C Issuer from
issuing such Letter of Credit, or any Law applicable to the L/C Issuer or any
request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any
Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over the L/C Issuer shall prohibit, or
request that the L/C Issuer refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit
generally
or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon the L/C Issuer with
respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement
(for
which the L/C Issuer is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on
the
Closing Date, or shall impose upon the L/C Issuer any unreimbursed loss, cost or
expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date and which the L/C Issuer
in good faith deems material to it;
      (B)        the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more
policies of the L/C Issuer;
      (C)        except as otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and the
L/C Issuer, such Letter of Credit is in an initial stated amount less than
$500,000;
      (D)        except as otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and the
L/C Issuer, such Letter of Credit is to be denominated in a currency other than
Dollars or an Alternative Currency;
      (E)        the L/C Issuer does not as of the issuance date of such
requested
Letter of Credit issue Letters of Credit in the requested currency;
      (F)        such Letter of Credit contains any provisions for automatic
reinstatement of the stated amount after any drawing thereunder; or
      (G)        a default of any Primary Lender's obligations to fund under
Section 2.03(c) exists or any Primary Lender is at such time a Defaulting Lender
hereunder, unless the L/C Issuer has entered into satisfactory arrangements with
the Company or such Primary Lender to eliminate the L/C Issuer's risk with
respect to such Primary Lender.
      (iv)        The L/C Issuer shall not amend any Letter of Credit if the L/C
Issuer
would not be permitted at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its
amended form
under the terms hereof.
      (v)        The L/C Issuer shall be under no obligation to amend any Letter
of Credit
if (A) the L/C Issuer would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter
of Credit
in its amended form under the terms hereof, or (B) the beneficiary of such
Letter of
Credit does not accept the proposed amendment to such Letter of Credit.
      (vi)        The L/C Issuer shall act on behalf of the Primary Lenders with
respect to
any Letters of Credit issued by it and the documents associated therewith, and
the L/C
Issuer shall have all of the benefits and immunities (A) provided to the
Administrative
Agent in Article IX with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by the
L/C Issuer
in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it
and Issuer
Documents pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully as if the term
"Administrative
Agent" as used in Article IX included the L/C Issuer with respect to such acts
or
omissions, and (B) as additionally provided herein with respect to the L/C
Issuer.
      (b)        Procedures for Issuance and Amendment of Letters of Credit;
Auto-Extension
Letters of Credit.
      (i)        Each Letter of Credit shall be issued or amended, as the case
may be, upon
the request of the Company delivered to the L/C Issuer (with a copy to the
Administrative
Agent) in the form of a Letter of Credit Application, appropriately completed
and signed
by a Responsible Officer of the Company. Such Letter of Credit Application must
be
received by the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00
a.m. at least
two Business Days (or such later date and time as the Administrative Agent and
the L/C
Issuer may agree in a particular instance in their sole discretion) prior to the
proposed
issuance date or date of amendment, as the case may be. In the case of a request
for an
initial issuance of a Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall
specify in
form and detail satisfactory to the L/C Issuer: (A) the proposed issuance date
of the
requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (B) the amount and
currency
thereof; (C) the expiry date thereof; (D) the name and address of the
beneficiary thereof;
(E) the documents to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing
thereunder;
(F) the full text of any certificate to be presented by such beneficiary in case
of any
drawing thereunder; and (G) such other matters as the L/C Issuer may reasonably
require.
In the case of a request for an amendment of any outstanding Letter of Credit,
such Letter
of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the L/C
Issuer (A)
the Letter of Credit to be amended; (B) the proposed date of amendment thereof
(which
shall be a Business Day); (C) the nature of the proposed amendment; and (D) such
other
matters as the L/C Issuer may reasonably require. Additionally, the Company
shall
furnish to the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent such other documents and
information pertaining to such requested Letter of Credit issuance or amendment,
including any Issuer Documents, as the L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent
may
reasonably require.
      (ii)        Promptly after receipt of any Letter of Credit Application,
the L/C Issuer
will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the
Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit Application
from the
Company and, if not, the L/C Issuer will provide the Administrative Agent with a
copy
thereof. Unless the L/C Issuer has received written notice from any Lender, the
Administrative Agent or any Loan Party, at least one Business Day prior to the
requested
date of issuance or amendment of the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or
more
applicable conditions contained in Article IV shall not then be satisfied, then,
subject to
the terms and conditions hereof, the L/C Issuer shall, on the requested date,
issue a Letter
of Credit for the account of the Company (or the applicable Subsidiary) or enter
into the
applicable amendment, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with the
L/C
Issuer's usual and customary business practices. Immediately upon the issuance
of each
Letter of Credit, each Primary Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably
and
unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the L/C Issuer a risk participation in
such Letter
of Credit in an amount equal to the product of such Primary Lender's Applicable
Primary
Percentage times the amount of such Letter of Credit.
      (iii)        If the Company so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit
Application,
the L/C Issuer may, in its sole and absolute discretion, agree to issue a Letter
of Credit
that has automatic extension provisions (each, an "Auto-Extension Letter of
Credit");
provided that any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit the L/C
Issuer to
prevent any such extension at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing
with
the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the
beneficiary
thereof not later than a day (the "Non-Extension Notice Date") in each such
twelve-
month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued.
Unless
otherwise directed by the L/C Issuer, the Company shall not be required to make
a
specific request to the L/C Issuer for any such extension. Once an
Auto-Extension Letter
of Credit has been issued, the Primary Lenders shall be deemed to have
authorized (but
may not require) the L/C Issuer to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit
at any
time to an expiry date not later than the Letter of Credit Expiration Date;
provided,
however, that the L/C Issuer shall not permit any such extension if (A) the L/C
Issuer has
determined that it would not be permitted, or would have no obligation, at such
time to
issue such Letter of Credit in its revised form (as extended) under the terms
hereof (by
reason of the provisions of clause (ii) or (iii) of Section 2.03(a) or
otherwise), or (B) it
has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the
day that is
five Business Days before the Non-Extension Notice Date (1) from the
Administrative
Agent that the Required Primary Lenders have elected not to permit such
extension or (2)
from the Administrative Agent, any Primary Lender or the Company that one or
more of
the applicable conditions specified in Section 4.02 is not then satisfied, and
in each such
case directing the L/C Issuer not to permit such extension.
      (iv)        Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any
amendment to a
Letter of Credit to an advising bank with respect thereto or to the beneficiary
thereof, the
L/C Issuer will also deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent a true
and
complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment.
      (c)        Drawings and Reimbursements; Funding of Participations.
      (i)        Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of
any notice of
a drawing under such Letter of Credit, the L/C Issuer shall notify the Company
and the
Administrative Agent thereof. In the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in
an
Alternative Currency, the Company shall reimburse the L/C Issuer in such
Alternative
Currency, unless (A) the L/C Issuer (at its option) shall have specified in such
notice that
it will require reimbursement in Dollars, or (B) in the absence of any such
requirement
for reimbursement in Dollars, the Company shall have notified the L/C Issuer
promptly
following receipt of the notice of drawing that the Company will reimburse the
L/C
Issuer in Dollars. In the case of any such reimbursement in Dollars of a drawing
under a
Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, the L/C Issuer shall
notify the
Company of the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of the drawing promptly following
the
determination thereof. Not later than 11:00 a.m. on the date of any payment by
the L/C
Issuer under a Letter of Credit to be reimbursed in Dollars, or the Applicable
Time on the
date of any payment by the L/C Issuer under a Letter of Credit to be reimbursed
in an
Alternative Currency (each such date, an "Honor Date"), the Company shall
reimburse
the L/C Issuer through the Administrative Agent in an amount equal to the amount
of
such drawing and in the applicable currency. If the Company fails to so
reimburse the
L/C Issuer by such time, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each
Primary
Lender of the Honor Date, the amount of the unreimbursed drawing (expressed in
Dollars
in the amount of the Dollar Equivalent thereof in the case of a Letter of Credit
denominated in an Alternative Currency) (the "Unreimbursed Amount"), and the
amount
of such Lender's Applicable Primary Percentage thereof. In such event, the
Company
shall be deemed to have requested a Committed Borrowing of Committed Primary
Loans
(which shall be Base Rate Loans) to be disbursed on the Honor Date in an amount
equal
to the Unreimbursed Amount, without regard to the minimum and multiples
specified in
Section 2.02 for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the
amount of
the unutilized portion of the Aggregate Commitments and the conditions set forth
in
Section 4.02 (other than the delivery of a Committed Loan Notice). Any notice
given by
the L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.03(c)(i)
may be
given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack
of such an
immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of
such
notice.
      (ii)        Each Primary Lender shall upon any notice pursuant to Section
2.03(c)(i)
make funds available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C
Issuer, in
Dollars, at the Administrative Agent's Office for Dollar-denominated payments in
an
amount equal to its Applicable Primary Percentage of the Unreimbursed Amount not
later
than 1:00 p.m. on the Business Day specified in such notice by the
Administrative Agent,
whereupon, subject to the provisions of Section 2.03(c)(iii), each Primary
Lender that so
makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Committed Primary Loan (as
a
Base Rate Loan) to the Company in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall
remit
the funds so received to the L/C Issuer in Dollars.
      (iii)        With respect to any Unreimbursed Amount that is not fully
refinanced by
a Committed Borrowing of Committed Primary Loans because the conditions set
forth in
Section 4.02 cannot be satisfied or for any other reason, the Company shall be
deemed to
have incurred from the L/C Issuer an L/C Borrowing in the amount of the
Unreimbursed
Amount that is not so refinanced, which L/C Borrowing shall be due and payable
on
demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at the Default Rate. In
such event,
each Primary Lender's payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the
L/C
Issuer pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(ii) shall be deemed payment in respect of its
participation in such L/C Borrowing and shall constitute an L/C Advance from
such
Primary Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this
Section 2.03.
      (iv)        Until each Primary Lender funds its Committed Loan or L/C
Advance
pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) to reimburse the L/C Issuer for any amount
drawn under
any Letter of Credit, interest in respect of such Primary Lender's Applicable
Primary
Percentage of such amount shall be solely for the account of the L/C Issuer.
      (v)        Each Primary Lender's obligation to make Committed Loans or L/C
Advances to reimburse the L/C Issuer for amounts drawn under Letters of Credit,
as
contemplated by this Section 2.03(c), shall be absolute and unconditional and
shall not be
affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim,
recoupment,
defense or other right which such Primary Lender may have against the L/C
Issuer, the
Company, any Subsidiary or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (B) the
occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or
condition,
whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that each
Primary
Lender's obligation to make Committed Loans pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) is
subject
to the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (other than delivery by the Company
of a
Committed Loan Notice). No such making of an L/C Advance shall relieve or
otherwise
impair the obligation of the Company to reimburse the L/C Issuer for the amount
of any
payment made by the L/C Issuer under any Letter of Credit, together with
interest as
provided herein.
      (vi)        If any Primary Lender fails to make available to the
Administrative Agent
for the account of the L/C Issuer any amount required to be paid by such Primary
Lender
pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.03(c) by the time
specified in
Section 2.03(c)(ii), the L/C Issuer shall be entitled to recover from such
Primary Lender
(acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest
thereon
for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such
payment
is immediately available to the L/C Issuer at a rate per annum equal to the
applicable
Overnight Rate from time to time in effect. A certificate of the L/C Issuer
submitted to
any Primary Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any
amounts
owing under this clause (vi) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
      (d)        Repayment of Participations.
      (i)        At any time after the L/C Issuer has made a payment under any
Letter of
Credit and has received from any Primary Lender such Primary Lender's L/C
Advance in
respect of such payment in accordance with Section 2.03(c), if the
Administrative Agent
receives for the account of the L/C Issuer any payment in respect of the related
Unreimbursed Amount or interest thereon (whether directly from the Company or
otherwise, including proceeds of Cash Collateral applied thereto by the
Administrative
Agent), the Administrative Agent will distribute to such Primary Lender its
Applicable
Primary Percentage thereof (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest
payments, to
reflect the period of time during which such Primary Lender's L/C Advance was
outstanding) in Dollars and in the same funds as those received by the
Administrative
Agent.
      (ii)        If any payment received by the Administrative Agent for the
account of
the L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) is required to be returned under
any of the
circumstances described in Section 10.05 (including pursuant to any settlement
entered
into by the L/C Issuer in its discretion), each Primary Lender shall pay to the
Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer its Applicable Primary
Percentage
thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the
date of
such demand to the date such amount is returned by such Primary Lender, at a
rate per
annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect. The
obligations of the Primary Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment
in full of
the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.
      (e)        Obligations Absolute. The obligation of the Company to
reimburse the L/C
Issuer for each drawing under each Letter of Credit and to repay each L/C
Borrowing shall be
absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in
accordance with the terms of
this Agreement under all circumstances, including the following:
      (i)        any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of
Credit, this
Agreement, or any other Loan Document;
      (ii)        the existence of any claim, counterclaim, setoff, defense or
other right that
the Company or any Subsidiary may have at any time against any beneficiary or
any
transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary
or any
such transferee may be acting), the L/C Issuer or any other Person, whether in
connection
with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by such Letter of
Credit or
any agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated transaction;
      (iii)        any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented
under such
Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in
any respect or
any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or any loss or
delay in the
transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing
under
such Letter of Credit;
      (iv)        any payment by the L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit
against
presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the
terms of such
Letter of Credit; or any payment made by the L/C Issuer under such Letter of
Credit to
any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession,
assignee for
the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or
successor to any
beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit, including any arising in
connection
with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law;
      (v)        any adverse change in the relevant exchange rates or in the
availability of
the relevant Alternative Currency to the Company or any Subsidiary or in the
relevant
currency markets generally; or
      (vi)        any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not
similar to
any of the foregoing, including any other circumstance that might otherwise
constitute a
defense available to, or a discharge of, the Company or any Subsidiary.
      The Company shall promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and
each
amendment thereto that is delivered to it and, in the event of any claim of
noncompliance with
the Company's instructions or other irregularity, the Company will immediately
notify the L/C
Issuer. The Company shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any such claim
against the
L/C Issuer and its correspondents unless such notice is given as aforesaid.
      (f)        Role of L/C Issuer. Each Lender and the Company agree that, in
paying any
drawing under a Letter of Credit, the L/C Issuer shall not have any
responsibility to obtain any
document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly
required by the Letter
of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such
document or the
authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document. None of the
L/C Issuer,
either Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any correspondent,
participant or
assignee of the L/C Issuer shall be liable to any Lender for (i) any action
taken or omitted in
connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Lenders, the
Required Primary
Lenders or the Required Lenders, as applicable; (ii) any action taken or omitted
in the absence of
gross negligence or willful misconduct; or (iii) the due execution,
effectiveness, validity or
enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Letter of Credit or
Issuer Document.
The Company hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary
or transferee
with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that this
assumption is not
intended to, and shall not, preclude the Company's pursuing such rights and
remedies as it may
have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement.
None of the L/C
Issuer, the Administrative Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor
any correspondent,
participant or assignee of the L/C Issuer shall be liable or responsible for any
of the matters
described in clauses (i) through (v) of Section 2.03(e); provided, however, that
anything in such
clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company may have a claim against
the L/C Issuer,
and the L/C Issuer may be liable to the Company, to the extent, but only to the
extent, of any
direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by the
Company which the
Company proves were caused by the L/C Issuer's willful misconduct or gross
negligence or the
L/C Issuer's willful failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the
presentation to it by the
beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly complying with the
terms and conditions of
a Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the
L/C Issuer may
accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without
responsibility for further
investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and the
L/C Issuer shall not
be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or
assigning or
purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits
thereunder or proceeds
thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for
any reason.
      (g)        Cash Collateral. (i) Upon the request of the Administrative
Agent, (A) if the L/C
Issuer has honored any full or partial drawing request under any Letter of
Credit and such
drawing has resulted in an L/C Borrowing, or (B) if, as of the Letter of Credit
Expiration Date,
any L/C Obligation for any reason remains outstanding, the Company shall, in
each case,
immediately Cash Collateralize the then Outstanding Amount of all L/C
Obligations.
      (ii)        In addition, if the Administrative Agent notifies the Company
at any time
that the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations at such time exceeds 105% of
the
Letter of Credit Sublimit then in effect, then, within two Business Days after
receipt of
such notice, the Company shall Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations in an
amount
equal to the amount by which the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations
exceeds the
Letter of Credit Sublimit.
      (iii)        The Administrative Agent may, at any time and from time to
time after the
initial deposit of Cash Collateral, request that additional Cash Collateral be
provided in
order to protect against the results of exchange rate fluctuations.
      (iv)        Sections 2.05 and 8.02(c) set forth certain additional
requirements to
deliver Cash Collateral hereunder. For purposes of this Section 2.03, Section
2.05 and
Section 8.02(c), "Cash Collateralize" means to pledge and deposit with or
deliver to the
Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the L/C Issuer and the Lenders, as
collateral for
the L/C Obligations, cash or deposit account balances pursuant to documentation
in form
and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer (which
documents are hereby consented to by the Lenders). Derivatives of such term have
corresponding meanings. The Company hereby grants to the Administrative Agent,
for
the benefit of the L/C Issuer and the Lenders, a security interest in all such
cash, deposit
accounts and all balances therein and all proceeds of the foregoing. Cash
Collateral shall
be maintained in blocked, interest bearing deposit accounts at Bank of America.
      (h)        Applicability of ISP. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the
L/C Issuer and the
Company when a Letter of Credit is issued (including any such agreement
applicable to an
Existing Letter of Credit), the rules of the ISP shall apply to each Letter of
Credit.
      (i)        Letter of Credit Fees. The Company shall pay to the
Administrative Agent for the
account of each Primary Lender in accordance with its Applicable Percentage, in
Dollars, a
Letter of Credit fee (the "Letter of Credit Fee") for each Letter of Credit
equal to the Applicable
Rate times the Dollar Equivalent of the daily amount available to be drawn under
such Letter of
Credit. For purposes of computing the daily amount available to be drawn under
any Letter of
Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance
with Section 1.08.
Letter of Credit Fees shall be (i) computed on a quarterly basis in arrears and
(ii) due and payable
on the first Business Day after the end of each March, June, September and
December,
commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter
of Credit, on the
Letter of Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on demand. If there is any
change in the
Applicable Rate during any quarter, the daily amount available to be drawn under
each Letter of
Credit shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Rate separately for
each period during
such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary
contained herein, upon the request of the Required Primary Lenders, while any
Event of Default
exists, all Letter of Credit Fees shall accrue at the Default Rate.
      (j)        Fronting Fee and Documentary and Processing Charges Payable to
L/C Issuer.
The Company shall pay directly to the L/C Issuer for its own account, in
Dollars, a fronting fee
with respect to each Letter of Credit, at the rate per annum specified in the
Fee Letter, computed
on the Dollar Equivalent of the daily amount available to be drawn under such
Letter of Credit
on a quarterly basis in arrears. Such fronting fee shall be due and payable on
the tenth Business
Day after the end of each March, June, September and December in respect of the
most recently-
ended quarterly period (or portion thereof, in the case of the first payment),
commencing with
the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the
Letter of Credit
Expiration Date and thereafter on demand. For purposes of computing the daily
amount
available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of
Credit shall be
determined in accordance with Section 1.08. In addition, the Company shall pay
directly to the
L/C Issuer for its own account, in Dollars, the customary issuance,
presentation, amendment and
other processing fees, and other standard costs and charges, of the L/C Issuer
relating to letters of
credit as from time to time in effect. Such customary fees and standard costs
and charges are due
and payable on demand and are nonrefundable.
      (k)        Conflict with Issuer Documents. In the event of any conflict
between the terms
hereof and the terms of any Issuer Document, the terms hereof shall control.
      (l)        Letters of Credit Issued for Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding that
a Letter of Credit
issued or outstanding hereunder is in support of any obligations of, or is for
the account of, a
Subsidiary, the Company shall be obligated to reimburse the L/C Issuer hereunder
for any and all
drawings under such Letter of Credit. The Company hereby acknowledges that the
issuance of
Letters of Credit for the account of Subsidiaries inures to the benefit of the
Company, and that
the Company's business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such
Subsidiaries.
      2.04        Swing Line Loans.
      (a)        The Swing Line. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth
herein, the Swing
Line Lender agrees, in reliance upon the agreements of the other Primary Lenders
set forth in
this Section 2.04, to make loans in Dollars (each such loan, a "Swing Line
Loan") to the
Company and, up to three Domestic Subsidiaries who are Borrowers designated in
writing by the
Company to borrow Swing Line Loans (the "Domestic Subsidiary Swing Line
Borrowers"),
from time to time on any Business Day during the Availability Period in an
aggregate amount
not to exceed at any time outstanding the amount of the Swing Line Sublimit,
notwithstanding
the fact that such Swing Line Loans, when aggregated with the Applicable Primary
Percentage
of the Outstanding Amount of Committed Loans and L/C Obligations of the Primary
Lender
acting as Swing Line Lender, may exceed the amount of such Primary Lender's
Primary
Commitment; provided, however, that after giving effect to any Swing Line Loan,
(i) the Total
Outstandings shall not exceed the Aggregate Commitments, and (ii) the aggregate
Outstanding
Amount of the Committed Primary Loans of any Primary Lender, plus such Primary
Lender's
Applicable Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations, plus
such Primary
Lender's Applicable Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of all Swing Line Loans
shall not
exceed such Primary Lender's Commitment, and provided, further, that neither the
Company nor
any such Domestic Subsidiary Swing Line Borrower shall use the proceeds of any
Swing Line
Loan to refinance any outstanding Swing Line Loan. Within the foregoing limits,
and subject to
the other terms and conditions hereof, the Company and such Domestic Subsidiary
Swing Line
Borrowers may borrow under this Section 2.04, prepay under Section 2.05, and
reborrow under
this Section 2.04. Each Swing Line Loan shall be a Base Rate Loan. Immediately
upon the
making of a Swing Line Loan, each Primary Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby
irrevocably
and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Swing Line Lender a risk
participation in such
Swing Line Loan in an amount equal to the product of such Primary Lender's
Applicable
Primary Percentage times the amount of such Swing Line Loan.
      (b)        Borrowing Procedures. Each Swing Line Borrowing shall be made
upon the
Company's irrevocable notice to the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative
Agent, which
may be given by telephone. Each such notice must be received by the Swing Line
Lender and the
Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. on the requested borrowing date,
and shall specify
(i) the Company or the applicable Domestic Subsidiary Swing Line Borrower, (ii)
the amount to
be borrowed, which shall be a minimum of $100,000, and (iii) the requested
borrowing date,
which shall be a Business Day. Each such telephonic notice must be confirmed
promptly by
delivery to the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent of a written
Swing Line Loan
Notice, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the
Company. Promptly
after receipt by the Swing Line Lender of any telephonic Swing Line Loan Notice,
the Swing
Line Lender will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in
writing) that the
Administrative Agent has also received such Swing Line Loan Notice and, if not,
the Swing Line
Lender will notify the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) of the
contents thereof.
Unless the Swing Line Lender has received notice (by telephone or in writing)
from the
Administrative Agent (including at the request of any Primary Lender) prior to
2:00 p.m. on the
date of the proposed Swing Line Borrowing (A) directing the Swing Line Lender
not to make
such Swing Line Loan as a result of the limitations set forth in the proviso to
the first sentence of
Section 2.04(a), or (B) that one or more of the applicable conditions specified
in Article IV is not
then satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Swing Line
Lender will, not
later than 3:00 p.m. on the borrowing date specified in such Swing Line Loan
Notice, make the
amount of its Swing Line Loan available to the Company or such Domestic
Subsidiary Swing
Line Borrower, as applicable, at its office by crediting the account of the
Company or such
Domestic Subsidiary Swing Line Borrower, as applicable, on the books of the
Swing Line
Lender in Same Day Funds.
      (c)        Refinancing of Swing Line Loans.
      (i)        The Swing Line Lender at any time in its sole and absolute
discretion may
request, on behalf of the Company (which hereby irrevocably authorizes the Swing
Line
Lender to so request on its behalf), that each Primary Lender make a Committed
Primary
Loan (which shall be a Base Rate Loan) in an amount equal to such Primary
Lender's
Applicable Primary Percentage of the amount of Swing Line Loans then
outstanding.
Such request shall be made in writing (which written request shall be deemed to
be a
Committed Loan Notice for purposes hereof) and in accordance with the
requirements of
Section 2.02, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified therein for
the
principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the unutilized portion of
the
Aggregate Primary Commitments and the conditions set forth in Section 4.02. The
Swing Line Lender shall furnish the Company with a copy of the applicable
Committed
Loan Notice promptly after delivering such notice to the Administrative Agent.
Each
Primary Lender shall make an amount equal to its Applicable Primary Percentage
of the
amount specified in such Committed Loan Notice available to the Administrative
Agent
in Same Day Funds for the account of the Swing Line Lender at the Administrative
Agent's Office for Dollar-denominated payments not later than 1:00 p.m. on the
day
specified in such Committed Loan Notice, whereupon, subject to Section
2.04(c)(ii), each
Primary Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a
Committed Primary Loan (as a Base Rate Loan) to the Company or such Domestic
Subsidiary which is a Borrower in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall
remit
the funds so received to the Swing Line Lender.
      (ii)        If for any reason any Swing Line Loan cannot be refinanced by
such a
Committed Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.04(c)(i), the request for
Committed
Primary Loans submitted by the Swing Line Lender as set forth herein shall be
deemed to
be a request by the Swing Line Lender that each of the Primary Lenders fund its
risk
participation in the relevant Swing Line Loan and each Primary Lender's payment
to the
Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender pursuant to
Section
2.04(c)(i) shall be deemed payment in respect of such participation.
      (iii)        If any Primary Lender fails to make available to the
Administrative Agent
for the account of the Swing Line Lender any amount required to be paid by such
Primary Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.04(c) by
the time
specified in Section 2.04(c)(i), the Swing Line Lender shall be entitled to
recover from
such Primary Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such
amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is
required to the
date on which such payment is immediately available to the Swing Line Lender at
a rate
per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect. A
certificate of the Swing Line Lender submitted to any Primary Lender (through
the
Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (iii)
shall be
conclusive absent manifest error.
      (iv)        Each Primary Lender's obligation to make Committed Primary
Loans or
to purchase and fund risk participations in Swing Line Loans pursuant to this
Section
2.04(c) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any
circumstance,
including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which
such
Lender may have against the Swing Line Lender, the Company or any other Person
for
any reason whatsoever, (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C)
any other
occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing;
provided,
however, that each Primary Lender's obligation to make Committed Primary Loans
pursuant to this Section 2.04(c) is subject to the conditions set forth in
Section 4.02. No
such funding of risk participations shall relieve or otherwise impair the
obligation of the
Company to repay Swing Line Loans, together with interest as provided herein.
      (d)        Repayment of Participations.
      (i)        At any time after any Primary Lender has purchased and funded a
risk
participation in a Swing Line Loan, if the Swing Line Lender receives any
payment on
account of such Swing Line Loan, the Swing Line Lender will distribute to such
Primary
Lender its Applicable Primary Percentage of such payment (appropriately
adjusted, in the
case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such
Primary
Lender's risk participation was funded) in the same funds as those received by
the Swing
Line Lender.
      (ii)        If any payment received by the Swing Line Lender in respect of
principal
or interest on any Swing Line Loan is required to be returned by the Swing Line
Lender
under any of the circumstances described in Section 10.05 (including pursuant to
any
settlement entered into by the Swing Line Lender in its discretion), each
Primary Lender
shall pay to the Swing Line Lender its Applicable Primary Percentage thereof on
demand
of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand
to the
date such amount is returned, at a rate per annum equal to the applicable
Overnight Rate.
The Administrative Agent will make such demand upon the request of the Swing
Line
Lender. The obligations of the Primary Lenders under this clause shall survive
the
payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.
      (e)        Interest for Account of Swing Line Lender. The Swing Line
Lender shall be
responsible for invoicing the Company for interest on the Swing Line Loans.
Until each Primary
Lender funds its Committed Primary Loan or risk participation pursuant to this
Section 2.04 to
refinance such Primary Lender's Applicable Primary Percentage of any Swing Line
Loan,
interest in respect of such Applicable Primary Percentage shall be solely for
the account of the
Swing Line Lender.
      (f)        Payments Directly to Swing Line Lender. The Company shall make
all payments
of principal and interest in respect of the Swing Line Loans directly to the
Swing Line Lender.
      2.05        Prepayments.
      (a) Each Borrower may, upon notice from the Company to the Administrative
Agent
and, in the case of any prepayment of Committed Singapore Loans, the Singapore
Administrative Agent, at any time or from time to time voluntarily prepay
Committed Loans in
whole or in part without premium or penalty; provided that (i) such notice must
be received by
the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (A) in the case of
prepayments under the
Singapore Subfacility, 10 Business Days or (B) in the case of prepayments under
the Primary
Subfacility, (1) three Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of
Eurocurrency Rate Loans
denominated in Dollars, (2) four Business Days (or five, in the case of
prepayment of Loans
denominated in Special Notice Currencies) prior to any date of prepayment of
Eurocurrency Rate
Loans denominated in Alternative Currencies, and (3) on the date of prepayment
of Base Rate
Committed Loans; (ii) any prepayment of Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in
Dollars shall
be in a principal amount of $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in
excess thereof;
(iii) any prepayment of Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in Alternative
Currencies shall be
in a minimum principal amount of $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in
excess
thereof; and (iv) any prepayment of Base Rate Committed Loans shall be in a
principal amount
of $500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof or, in each case,
if less, the entire
principal amount thereof then outstanding. Each such notice shall specify the
date and amount of
such prepayment, the Type(s) of Committed Loans to be prepaid, whether the
Committed Loans
to be prepaid are Committed Primary Loans or Committed Singapore Loans and, if
Eurocurrency
Loans are to be prepaid, the Interest Period(s) of such Loans. The
Administrative Agent will
promptly notify each applicable Lender of its receipt of each such notice, and
of the amount of
such Lender's Share of such prepayment. If such notice is given by the Company,
the applicable
Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such
notice shall be
due and payable on the date specified therein. Any prepayment of a Eurocurrency
Rate Loan
shall be accompanied by all accrued interest on the amount prepaid, together
with any additional
amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05. Each such prepayment shall be applied
to the
Committed Primary Loans or Committed Singapore Loans, as the case may be, of the
Primary
Lenders or Singapore Lenders, as applicable, in accordance with their respective
Shares.
      (b)        The Company may, upon notice to the Swing Line Lender (with a
copy to the
Administrative Agent), at any time or from time to time, voluntarily prepay
Swing Line Loans in
whole or in part without premium or penalty; provided that (i) such notice must
be received by
the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. on
the date of the
prepayment, and (ii) any such prepayment shall be in a minimum principal amount
of $100,000.
Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment. If such
notice is given
by the Company, the Company shall make such prepayment and the payment amount
specified
in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein.
      (c)        (i) If the Administrative Agent notifies the Company at any
time that the Total
Primary Outstandings at such time exceed an amount equal to 105% of the
Aggregate Primary
Commitments then in effect, then, within two Business Days after receipt of such
notice, the
Primary Borrowers shall prepay Committed Primary Loans and/or Swing Line Loans
and/or the
Company shall Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations in an aggregate amount
sufficient to
reduce such Outstanding Amount as of such date of payment to an amount not to
exceed 100%
of the Aggregate Primary Commitments then in effect; provided, however, that,
subject to the
provisions of Section 2.03(g)(ii), the Company shall not be required to Cash
Collateralize the
L/C Obligations pursuant to this Section 2.05(c) unless after the prepayment in
full of the Loans
the Total Outstandings exceed the Aggregate Primary Commitments then in effect.
The
Administrative Agent may, at any time and from time to time after the initial
deposit of such
Cash Collateral, request that additional Cash Collateral be provided in order to
protect against
the results of further exchange rate fluctuations.
            (ii)        If either Agent notifies the Company at any time that
the Total Singapore
Outstandings at such time exceed an amount equal to 105% of the Aggregate
Singapore
Commitments then in effect, then, within two Business Days after receipt of such
notice, the
Singapore Borrowers shall prepay Committed Singapore Loans in an aggregate
amount
sufficient to reduce such Outstanding Amount as of such date of payment to an
amount not to
exceed 100% of the Aggregate Singapore Commitments then in effect.
      2.06        Termination or Reduction of Commitments.
      The Company may, upon notice to the Agents, terminate the Aggregate
Primary
Commitments or the Aggregate Singapore Commitments, or from time to time
permanently
reduce the Aggregate Primary Commitments or the Aggregate Singapore Commitments;
provided that (i) any such notice shall be received by the Administrative Agent
(and, if such
notice relates to the Aggregate Singapore Commitments, the Singapore
Administrative Agent)
not later than 11:00 a.m. five Business Days, in the case of the Primary
Subfacility, or 10
Business Days, in the case of the Singapore Subfacility, prior to the date of
termination or
reduction, (ii) any such partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount of
$10,000,000 or any
whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, (iii) the Company shall not
terminate or reduce
the Aggregate Primary Commitments if, after giving effect thereto and to any
concurrent
prepayments hereunder, the Total Primary Outstandings would exceed the Aggregate
Primary
Commitments, (iv) the Company shall not terminate or reduce the Aggregate
Singapore
Commitments if, after giving effect thereto and to any concurrent prepayments
hereunder, the
Total Singapore Outstandings would exceed the Aggregate Singapore Commitments
and (v) if,
after giving effect to any reduction of the Aggregate Primary Commitments, the
Letter of Credit
Sublimit or the Swing Line Sublimit exceeds the amount of the Aggregate Primary
Commitments, such Sublimit shall be automatically reduced by the amount of such
excess. The
Administrative Agent will promptly notify the applicable Lenders of any such
notice of
termination or reduction of the Aggregate Primary Commitments or the Aggregate
Singapore
Commitments. The amount of any such Aggregate Primary Commitment reduction shall
not be
applied to the Letter of Credit Sublimit unless otherwise specified by the
Company. Any
reduction of the Aggregate Primary Commitments or the Aggregate Singapore
Commitments
shall be applied to the Commitment of each Lender according to its Share. All
fees accrued until
the effective date of any termination of the Aggregate Commitments or the
Aggregate Singapore
Commitments shall be paid on the effective date of such termination.
      2.07        Repayment of Loans.
       (a) Each Borrower shall repay to the Lenders on the Maturity Date the
aggregate
principal amount of Committed Loans made to such Borrower outstanding on such
date.
      (b)        The Company shall repay each Swing Line Loan on the earlier to
occur of (i) the
date ten Business Days after such Loan is made and (ii) the Maturity Date.
      2.08        Interest.
       (a) Subject to the provisions of subsection (b) below, (i) each
Eurocurrency Rate Loan
shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each
Interest Period at a rate
per annum equal to the Eurocurrency Base Rate for such Interest Period plus the
Applicable Rate
plus (in the case of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan of any Lender which is lent from a
Lending Office
in the United Kingdom or a Participating Member State) the Mandatory Cost; (ii)
each Base Rate
Committed Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof
from the
applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the
Applicable Rate;
and (iii) each Swing Line Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal
amount thereof
from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate
plus the
Applicable Rate.
      (b)        (i)        If any amount of principal of any Loan is not paid
when due (without
regard to any applicable grace periods), whether at stated maturity, by
acceleration or otherwise,
such amount shall thereafter bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per
annum at all times
equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws.
      (ii)        If any amount (other than principal of any Loan) payable by
any Borrower
under any Loan Document is not paid when due (without regard to any applicable
grace
periods), whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, then upon
the request
of the Required Lenders, such amount shall thereafter bear interest at a
fluctuating
interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest
extent
permitted by applicable Laws.
      (iii)        Upon the request of the Required Lenders, while any Event of
Default
exists, the Borrowers shall pay interest on the principal amount of all
outstanding
Obligations hereunder at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times
equal to the
Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws.
      (iv)        Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including
interest on
past due interest) shall be due and payable upon demand.
      (c)        Interest on each Loan shall be due and payable in arrears on
each Interest
Payment Date applicable thereto and at such other times as may be specified
herein. Interest
hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before
and after
judgment, and before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any
Debtor Relief
Law.
      (d)        Interest on any Base Rate Committed Loan under the Singapore
Subfacility shall
be adjusted by the Singapore Administrative Agent, to the extent necessary, to
compensate the
Singapore Lenders for any funding mismatch resulting from time zone differences
between the
locations of the Administrative Agent's Office and the Singapore Administrative
Agent's Office.
      2.09        Fees.
      In addition to certain fees described in subsections (i) and (j) of
Section 2.03:
      (a)        Commitment Fee. The Company shall pay (i) to the Administrative
Agent for the
account of each Primary Lender in accordance with its Applicable Primary
Percentage, a
commitment fee in Dollars equal to the Applicable Commitment Fee times the
actual daily
amount by which the Aggregate Primary Commitments exceed the sum of (A) the
Outstanding
Amount of Committed Primary Loans and (B) the Outstanding Amount of L/C
Obligations and
(ii) to the Singapore Administrative Agent for the account of each Singapore
Lender in
accordance with its Applicable Singapore Percentage, a commitment fee in Dollars
equal to the
Applicable Commitment Fee times the actual daily amount by which the Aggregate
Singapore
Commitments exceed the Outstanding Amount of Committed Singapore Loans. The
commitment fee shall accrue at all times during the Availability Period;
including at any time
during which one or more of the conditions in Article IV is not met, and shall
be due and payable
quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and
December,
commencing with the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, and on the
Maturity Date.
The commitment fee shall be calculated quarterly in arrears, and if there is any
change in the
Applicable Commitment Fee during any quarter, the actual daily amount shall be
computed and
multiplied by the Applicable Commitment Fee separately for each period during
such quarter
that such Applicable Commitment Fee was in effect.
(b)        Other Fees.
      (i) The Company shall pay to the Arranger and the Administrative Agent for
their
own respective accounts, in Dollars, fees in the amounts and at the times
specified in the
Fee Letter. Such fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be
refundable for any
reason whatsoever.
      (ii)        The Company shall pay to the Lenders, in Dollars, such fees as
shall have
been separately agreed upon in writing in the amounts and at the times so
specified. Such
fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason
whatsoever.
      2.10        Computation of Interest and Fees.
      All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans when the Base Rate is
determined by
Bank of America's "prime rate" shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or
366 days, as the
case may be, and actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees and
interest shall be made
on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed (which results in more
fees or interest, as
applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year), or, in
the case of interest
in respect of Committed Loans denominated in Alternative Currencies as to which
market
practice differs from the foregoing, in accordance with such market practice.
Interest shall
accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue
on a Loan, or
any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid,
provided that any
Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to
Section 2.12(a), bear
interest for one day. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an
interest rate or fee
hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest
error.
      2.11        Evidence of Debt.
       (a) The Credit Extensions made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one
or more
accounts or records maintained by such Lender and by the Administrative Agent
and, in the case
of Credit Extensions under the Singapore Subfacility, the Singapore
Administrative Agent in the
ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by the Agents
and each Lender
shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Credit Extensions
made by the
Lenders to the Borrowers and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to
so record or any
error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation
of the Borrowers
hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations. In the event
of any conflict
between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and
records of
either Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of such Agent
shall control in
the absence of manifest error. Upon the request of any Lender to a Borrower made
through the
Administrative Agent, such Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender
(through the
Administrative Agent) a Note, which shall evidence such Lender's Loans to such
Borrower in
addition to such accounts or records. Each Lender may attach schedules to a Note
and endorse
thereon the date, Type (if applicable), amount, currency and maturity of its
Loans and payments
with respect thereto.
      (b)        In addition to the accounts and records referred to in
subsection (a), each Primary
Lender and the Administrative Agent shall maintain in accordance with its usual
practice
accounts or records evidencing the purchases and sales by such Primary Lender of
participations
in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans. In the event of any conflict between
the accounts and
records maintained by the Administrative Agent and the accounts and records of
any Primary
Lender in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the
Administrative Agent shall
control in the absence of manifest error.
      2.12        Payments Generally; Administrative Agent's Clawback.
       (a) General. All payments to be made by the Borrowers shall be made
without
condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff.
Except as otherwise
expressly provided herein and except with respect to principal of and interest
on Loans
denominated in an Alternative Currency, all payments by the Borrowers hereunder
in respect of
the Primary Subfacility shall be made to the Administrative Agent, and all
payments by the
Borrowers hereunder in respect of the Singapore Subfacility shall be made to the
Singapore
Administrative Agent, in each case for the account of the respective Lenders to
which such
payment is owed, at the applicable Administrative Agent's Office or Singapore
Administrative
Agent's Office in Dollars and in Same Day Funds not later than 2:00 p.m. on the
date specified
herein. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the
Borrowers hereunder
with respect to principal and interest on Loans under the Primary Subfacility
denominated in an
Alternative Currency shall be made to the Administrative Agent, and all payments
by the
Borrowers hereunder with respect to principal and interest on Loans under the
Singapore
Subfacility denominated in an Alternative Currency shall be made to the
Singapore
Administrative Agent, in each case for the account of the respective Lenders to
which such
payment is owed, at the applicable Administrative Agent's Office or Singapore
Administrative
Agent's Office, in such Alternative Currency and in Same Day Funds not later
than the
Applicable Time specified by the applicable Agent on the dates specified herein.
Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may require
that any payments
due under this Agreement under the Primary Subfacility (and, if an Event of
Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, the Singapore Subfacility) be made in the United
States. If, for any
reason, any Borrower is prohibited by any Law from making any required payment
hereunder in
an Alternative Currency, such Borrower shall make such payment in Dollars in the
Dollar
Equivalent of the Alternative Currency payment amount. Each Agent will promptly
distribute to
each Lender its Share (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such
payment in like
funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender's Lending Office. All payments
received by
either Agent (i) after 2:00 p.m., in the case of payments under the Primary
Subfacility in Dollars,
or (ii) after the Applicable Time specified by the applicable Agent in the case
of payments in an
Alternative Currency or under the Singapore Subfacility, shall in each case be
deemed received
on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall
continue to accrue.
If any payment to be made by any Borrower shall come due on a day other than a
Business Day,
payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of
time shall be
reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be.
      (b)        (i) Funding by Lenders; Presumption by Agents. Unless the
applicable Agent
shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any
Committed Borrowing
of Eurocurrency Rate Loans (or, in the case of any Committed Borrowing of Base
Rate Loans,
prior to 12:00 noon, in the case of the Primary Subfacility, or 10:00 a.m., in
the case of the
Singapore Subfacility, on the date of such Committed Borrowing) that such Lender
will not
make available to such Agent such Lender's share of such Committed Borrowing,
such Agent
may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in
accordance with
Section 2.02 (or, in the case of a Committed Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, that
such Lender
has made such share available in accordance with and at the time required by
Section 2.02) and
may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrower
a
corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share
of the applicable
Committed Borrowing available to such Agent, then the applicable Lender and the
applicable
Borrower severally agree to pay to such Agent forthwith on demand such
corresponding amount
in Same Day Funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the
date such amount
is made available to such Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to such
Agent, at (A) in
the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the Overnight Rate and (B) in
the case of a
payment to be made by such Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate
Loans. If such
Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to such Agent for the same or
an overlapping
period, such Agent shall promptly remit to such Borrower the amount of such
interest paid by
such Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable
Committed
Borrowing to such Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender's
Committed
Loan included in such Committed Borrowing. Any payment by such Borrower shall be
without
prejudice to any claim such Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have
failed to make
such payment to such Agent.
      (ii)        Payments by Borrowers; Presumptions by Agents. Unless the
applicable Agent
shall have received notice from a Borrower prior to the date on which any
payment is due to such
Agent for the account of any of the Lenders or the L/C Issuer hereunder that
such Borrower will
not make such payment, such Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such
payment on
such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption,
distribute to the
applicable Lenders or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, the amount due. In
such event, if such
Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the applicable Lenders
or the L/C
Issuer, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to such Agent forthwith on
demand the
amount so distributed to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, in Same Day Funds with
interest thereon,
for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but
excluding the date
of payment to such Agent, at the Overnight Rate.
      A notice of either Agent to any Lender or Borrower with respect to any
amount owing
under this subsection (b) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.
      (c)        Failure to Satisfy Conditions Precedent. If any Lender makes
available to an
Agent funds for any Loan to be made by such Lender to any Borrower as provided
in the
foregoing provisions of this Article II, and such funds are not made available
to such Borrower
by such Agent because the conditions to the applicable Credit Extension set
forth in Article IV
are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, such Agent
shall return such
funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without
interest.
      (d)        Obligations of Lenders Several. The obligations of the Lenders
hereunder to
make Committed Loans and, in the case of the Primary Lenders, to fund
participations in Letters
of Credit and Swing Line Loans, and the obligations of the Lenders to make
payments pursuant
to Section 10.04(c), are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to
make any Committed
Loan, to fund any such participation or to make any payment under Section
10.04(c) on any date
required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding
obligation to do so on
such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other
Lender to so make its
Committed Loan, to purchase its participation or to make its payment under
Section 10.04(c).
      (e)        Funding Source. Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any
Lender to obtain
the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a
representation by any
Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any
particular place or
manner.
      2.13        Sharing of Payments by Lenders.
      If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or
otherwise, obtain
payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of the Committed Loans
made by it, or
the participations in L/C Obligations or in Swing Line Loans held by it
resulting in such
Lender's receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of such
Committed Loans
or participations and accrued interest thereon greater than its share thereof as
provided herein,
then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Agents of
such fact, and (b)
purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Committed Loans and, in
the case of a
Primary Lender, subparticipations in L/C Obligations and Swing Line Loans of the
other Primary
Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the
benefit of all such
payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate
amount of
principal of and accrued interest on their respective Committed Loans and other
amounts owing
them, provided that:
      (i)        if any such participations or subparticipations are purchased
and all or any
portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations or
subparticipations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the
extent of such
recovery, without interest; and
      (ii)        the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply
to (x) any
payment made by a Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms
of
this Agreement or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the
assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Committed Loans or
subparticipations in L/C Obligations or Swing Line Loans to any assignee or
participant,
other than to the Company or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions
of this
Section shall apply).
      Subject to the provisions of Sections 10.06(d) and (e), each Borrower
consents to the
foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable
law, that any Lender
acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise
against such
Borrower rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as
fully as if such
Lender were a direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such
participation.
      2.14        Designated Borrowers.
      (a) Effective as of the date hereof, Technitrol Delaware, Inc., a Delaware
corporation;
Pulse Engineering, Inc., a Delaware corporation; AMI Doduco, Inc., a
Pennsylvania corporation;
Technitrol Singapore Holdings Pte. Ltd., a company organized under the laws of
Singapore;

organized
under the laws of Germany; AMI Doduco GmbH, a company organized under the laws
of
Germany; AMI Doduco Espana S.L., a company organized under the laws of Spain;
and AMI

terms and
conditions set forth in this Agreement.
      (b) The Company may at any time, upon not less than 15 Business Days'
notice from the
Company to the Administrative Agent (or such shorter period as may be agreed by
the
Administrative Agent in its sole discretion), designate any additional Material
Subsidiary of the
Company (an "Applicant Borrower") as a Designated Borrower to receive Loans
hereunder, by
delivering to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly deliver
counterparts thereof to the
Singapore Administrative Agent and each Lender) a duly executed notice and
agreement in
substantially the form of Exhibit H (a "Designated Borrower Request and
Assumption
Agreement"). The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that prior to any
Applicant Borrower
becoming entitled to utilize the credit facilities provided for herein, the
Agents and the Lenders
shall have consented in writing thereto in their sole discretion and shall have
received such
supporting resolutions, incumbency certificates, opinions of counsel, and other
documents or
information, in form, content and scope reasonably satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent, as
may be required by the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders in their
sole discretion,
and Notes signed by such new Borrowers to the extent any Lenders so require. If
the
Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders agree that an Applicant Borrower
shall be
entitled to receive Loans hereunder, then promptly following receipt of all such
requested
resolutions, incumbency certificates, opinions of counsel and other documents or
information,
the Administrative Agent shall send a notice in substantially the form of
Exhibit I (a "Designated
Borrower Notice") to the Company, the Singapore Administrative Agent and the
Lenders
specifying the effective date upon which the Applicant Borrower shall constitute
a Designated
Borrower for purposes hereof, whereupon each of the Primary Lenders agrees to
permit such
Designated Borrower to receive Loans hereunder, on the terms and conditions set
forth herein,
and each of the parties agrees that such Designated Borrower otherwise shall be
a Borrower for
all purposes of this Agreement; provided that no Committed Loan Notice or Letter
of Credit
Application may be submitted by or on behalf of such Designated Borrower until
the date five
Business Days after such effective date. Any Applicant Borrower shall, unless
the Agents and
the Singapore Lenders otherwise consent in their sole discretion, become a
Primary Borrower
and not a Singapore Borrower.
      (c) The Obligations of the Company and each Designated Borrower that is a
Domestic
Subsidiary shall be joint and several in nature. The Obligations of all
Designated Borrowers that
are Foreign Subsidiaries shall be several in nature.
      (d) Each Subsidiary of the Company that is or becomes a "Designated
Borrower"
pursuant to this Section 2.14 hereby irrevocably appoints the Company as its
agent for all
purposes relevant to this Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents,
including (i) the
giving and receipt of notices, (ii) the execution and delivery of all documents,
instruments and
certificates contemplated herein and all modifications hereto, and (iii) the
receipt of the proceeds
of any Loans made by the Lenders, to any such Designated Borrower hereunder. Any
acknowledgment, consent, direction, certification or other action which might
otherwise be valid
or effective only if given or taken by all Borrowers, or by each Borrower acting
singly, shall be
valid and effective if given or taken only by the Company, whether or not any
such other
Borrower joins therein. Any notice, demand, consent, acknowledgement, direction,
certification
or other communication delivered to the Company in accordance with the terms of
this
Agreement shall be deemed to have been delivered to each Designated Borrower.
      2.15        Increase in Commitments.
      (a)        Request for Increase. Provided there exists no Default, upon
notice to the
Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Singapore Administrative
Agent and the
Lenders), the Company may from time to time request an increase in the Aggregate
Primary
Commitments or the Aggregate Singapore Commitments by an amount (for all such
requests)
not exceeding $100,000,000; provided that (i) any such request for an increase
shall be in a
minimum amount of $25,000,000, and (ii) the Company may make a maximum of four
such
requests (and a simultaneous request to increase both the Aggregate Primary
Commitments and
the Aggregate Singapore Commitments shall be deemed to constitute one such
request). At the
time of sending such notice, the Company (in consultation with the
Administrative Agent and, in
the case of any request in respect of the Aggregate Singapore Commitments, the
Singapore
Administrative Agent) shall specify the time period within which each Lender is
requested to
respond (which shall in no event be less than ten Business Days from the date of
delivery of such
notice to the Lenders).
      (b)        Lender Elections to Increase. Each applicable Lender shall
notify the
Administrative Agent within such time period whether or not it agrees to
increase its applicable
Commitment and, if so, whether by an amount equal to, greater than, or less than
its Share of
such requested increase. Any Lender not responding within such time period shall
be deemed to
have declined to increase its Commitment.
      (c)        Notification by Administrative Agent; Additional Lenders. The
Administrative
Agent shall notify the Company, the Singapore Administrative Agent and each
Lender of the
Lenders' responses to each request made hereunder. To achieve the full amount of
a requested
increase and subject to the approval of the Agents and the L/C Issuer (which
approvals shall not
be unreasonably withheld), the Company may also invite additional Eligible
Assignees to
become Lenders pursuant to a joinder agreement in form and substance
satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent and its counsel.
      (d)        Effective Date and Allocations. If the Aggregate Primary
Commitments or
Aggregate Singapore Commitments are increased in accordance with this Section,
the Agents
and the Company shall determine the effective date (the "Increase Effective
Date") and the final
allocation of such increase. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the
Singapore
Administrative Agent, the Company and the Lenders of the final allocation of
such increase and
the Increase Effective Date.
      (e)        Conditions to Effectiveness of Increase. As a condition
precedent to such
increase, the Company shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of
each Loan Party
dated as of the Increase Effective Date (in sufficient copies for the Singapore
Administrative
Agent and each Lender) signed by a Responsible Officer of such Loan Party (i)
certifying and
attaching the resolutions adopted by such Loan Party approving or consenting to
such increase,
and (ii) in the case of the Company, certifying that, before and after giving
effect to such
increase, (A) the representations and warranties contained in Article V and the
other Loan
Documents are true and correct on and as of the Increase Effective Date, except
to the extent that
such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in
which case they are
true and correct as of such earlier date, and except that for purposes of this
Section 2.15, the
representations and warranties contained in subsections (a) and (b) of Section
5.05 shall be
deemed to refer to the most recent statements furnished pursuant to clauses (a)
and (b),
respectively, of Section 6.01, and (B) no Default exists. The Borrowers shall
prepay any
Committed Loans outstanding on the Increase Effective Date (and pay any
additional amounts
required pursuant to Section 3.05) to the extent necessary to keep the
outstanding Committed
Primary Loans and Committed Singapore Loans ratable with any revised Shares
arising from any
nonratable increase in the Commitments under this Section.
      (f)        Conflicting Provisions. This Section shall supersede any
provisions in Sections
2.13 or 10.01 to the contrary.
2.16        Reallocation of Commitments.
      (a)        Request for Reallocation. Provided there exists no Default,
upon notice to the
Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Singapore Administrative
Agent and the
Lenders), the Company may from time to time direct (i) the reallocation of the
Aggregate
Singapore Commitments of the Singapore Lenders as Primary Commitments of such
Lenders (or
their Affiliates, if any such reallocation cannot be effected by any Singapore
Lender through the
designation of a lending office in the United States), or (ii) the reallocation
of Reallocated
Primary Commitments of the Primary Lenders as Singapore Commitments of such
Lenders (or
their Affiliates, as above). Any such request for a reallocation shall be in a
minimum amount of
$5,000,000, or any integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, and the
Company may
make a maximum of two such requests in any twelve-month period. At the time of
sending any
such notice relating to a reallocation pursuant to clause (a)(ii) above, the
Company (in
consultation with the Administrative Agent and the Singapore Administrative
Agent) shall
specify the time period within which each Lender is requested to respond (which
shall in no
event be less than ten Business Days from the date of delivery of such notice to
the Singapore
Lenders).
      (b)        Lender Consent. In the case of a reallocation pursuant to
clause (a)(ii) above,
each applicable Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent within such time
period whether or
not it consents (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) to the
decrease of its Primary
Commitment and the increase of its (or its Affiliate's) Singapore Commitment in
an amount
equal to its Share of such requested reallocation. The Administrative Agent
shall notify the
Company, the Singapore Administrative Agent and each Lender of the Lenders'
responses to
each request made hereunder.
      (c)        Effective Date and Allocations. The Agents and the Company
shall determine the
effective date of any reallocation under this Section 2.16 (the "Reallocation
Effective Date") and
the Primary Commitments and Singapore Commitments of the Lenders after giving
effect
thereto. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Singapore
Administrative Agent,
the Company and the Lenders of the reallocated Commitments and the Reallocation
Effective
Date.
      (d)        Conditions to Effectiveness. As a condition precedent to such
increase, the
Company shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of each Loan
Party dated as of
the Reallocation Effective Date (in sufficient copies for the Singapore
Administrative Agent and
each Lender) signed by a Responsible Officer of such Loan Party (i) certifying
and attaching the
resolutions adopted by such Loan Party approving or consenting to such
reallocation, and (ii) in
the case of the Company, certifying that, before and after giving effect to such
increase, (A) the
representations and warranties contained in Article V and the other Loan
Documents are true and
correct on and as of the Reallocation Effective Date, except to the extent that
such
representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which
case they are true and
correct as of such earlier date, and except that for purposes of this Section
2.16, the
representations and warranties contained in subsections (a) and (b) of Section
5.05 shall be
deemed to refer to the most recent statements furnished pursuant to clauses (a)
and (b),
respectively, of Section 6.01, and (B) no Default exists. The Borrowers shall
prepay any
Committed Loans outstanding on the Reallocation Effective Date (and pay any
additional
amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05) to the extent necessary to keep the
outstanding
Committed Primary Loans and Committed Singapore Loans ratable with any revised
Shares
arising from any reallocation under this Section.
      (f)        Conflicting Provisions. This Section shall supersede any
provisions in Sections
2.13 or 10.01 to the contrary.
ARTICLE III.
TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY
      3.01        Taxes.
      (a)        Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account
of any
obligation of the respective Borrowers hereunder or under any other Loan
Document shall be
made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Indemnified
Taxes or Other
Taxes, provided that if the applicable Borrower shall be required by applicable
law to deduct any
Indemnified Taxes (including any Other Taxes) from such payments, then (i) the
sum payable
shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions
(including deductions
applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Agent,
Lender or L/C
Issuer, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have
received had no
such deductions been made, (ii) such Borrower shall make such deductions and
(iii) such
Borrower shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental
Authority in
accordance with applicable law.
      (b)        Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrowers. Without limiting the
provisions of
subsection (a) above, each Borrower shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the
relevant
Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.
      (c)        Indemnification by the Borrowers. Each Borrower shall indemnify
each Agent,
each Lender and the L/C Issuer, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the
full amount of any
Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes
imposed or
asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) paid by such
Agent, such
Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, and any penalties, interest and
reasonable expenses
arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes
or Other Taxes
were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental
Authority. A
certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to a
Borrower by the Singapore
Administrative Agent, a Lender or the L/C Issuer (with a copy to the
Administrative Agent), or
by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of the Singapore
Administrative
Agent, a Lender or the L/C Issuer, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
      (d)        Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment
of Indemnified
Taxes or Other Taxes by any Borrower to a Governmental Authority, such Borrower
shall
deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a
receipt issued by such
Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, if any, a copy of the return
reporting such
payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent.
      (e)        Status of Lenders. Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an
exemption from or
reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which a
Borrower is resident for
tax purposes, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect
to payments
hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall deliver to the Company (with a
copy to the
Administrative Agent and, if such Lender is an Singapore Lender, the Singapore
Administrative
Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or reasonably
requested by the
Company or either Agent, to the extent that such Lender is reasonably able to do
so in a timely
manner, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by
applicable law as
will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of
withholding.
In addition, any Lender, if requested by the Company or either Agent, shall, to
the extent that
such Lender is reasonably able to do so in a timely manner, deliver such other
documentation
prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Company or either
Agent as will
enable the Company or such Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is
subject to backup
withholding or information reporting requirements.
      Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that a
Borrower is resident
for tax purposes in the United States, any Foreign Lender shall deliver to
Company and the
Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the
recipient) on or
prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this
Agreement (and
from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Company or the
Administrative Agent, but
only if such Foreign Lender is legally entitled to do so), whichever of the
following is applicable:
      (i)        duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN
claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United
States is a
party,
      (ii)        duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI,
      (iii)        in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the
exemption for
portfolio interest under section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate to the
effect that such
Foreign Lender is not (A) a "bank" within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of
the
Code, (B) a "10 percent shareholder" of the applicable Borrower within the
meaning of
section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a "controlled foreign corporation"
described in
section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (y) duly completed copies of Internal
Revenue
Service Form W-8BEN, or
      (iv)        any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for
claiming
exemption from or a reduction in United States Federal withholding tax duly
completed
together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by
applicable law
to permit the Company to determine the withholding or deduction required to be
made.
      Without limiting the obligations of the Lenders set forth above regarding
delivery of
certain forms and documents to establish each Lender's status for U.S.
withholding tax purposes,
each Lender agrees promptly to deliver, to the extent that such Lender is
reasonably able to do so
in a timely manner, to either Agent or the Company as such Agent or the Company
shall
reasonably request, on or prior to the Closing Date, and in a timely fashion
thereafter, such other
documents and forms required by any relevant taxing authorities under the Laws
of any other
jurisdiction, duly executed and completed by such Lender, as are required under
such Laws to
confirm such Lender's entitlement to any available exemption from, or reduction
of, applicable
withholding taxes in respect of all payments to be made to such Lender outside
of the U.S. by the
Borrowers pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise to establish such Lender's
status for
withholding tax purposes in such other jurisdiction. Each Lender shall, to the
extent that such
Lender is reasonably able to do so in a timely manner, promptly (i) notify the
Administrative
Agent (and, if such Lender is an Singapore Lender, the Singapore Administrative
Agent) of any
change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any such claimed
exemption or
reduction, and (ii) take such steps as shall not be materially disadvantageous
to it, in the
reasonable judgment of such Lender, and as may be reasonably necessary
(including the re-
designation of its Lending Office) to avoid any requirement of applicable Laws
of any such
jurisdiction that any Borrower make any deduction or withholding for taxes from
amounts
payable to such Lender. Additionally, each of the Borrowers shall promptly
deliver to the
Administrative Agent (and, if such Lender is an Singapore Lender, the Singapore
Administrative
Agent) or any Lender, as either Agent or such Lender shall reasonably request,
on or prior to the
Closing Date, and in a timely fashion thereafter, such documents and forms
required by any
relevant taxing authorities under the Laws of any jurisdiction, duly executed
and completed by
such Borrower to the extent applicable to such Borrower, as are required to be
furnished by such
Lender or Agent under such Laws in connection with any payment by either Agent
or any
Lender of Taxes or Other Taxes, or otherwise in connection with the Loan
Documents, with
respect to such jurisdiction.
      (f)        Status as PMP. Each Lender which is a party to this Agreement
on the date
hereof represents and warrants to each Dutch Foreign Obligor on the date hereof
that is a PMP.
As of the date on which any Eligible Assignee (or any other Person to whom any
Lender assigns
any of its rights under this Agreement) becomes a Lender hereto, if it is a
requirement of Dutch
law that such Eligible Assignee (or other Person) be a PMP, each such Eligible
Assignee (and
each such Person) represents and warrants to each Dutch Foreign Obligor on the
date on which it
becomes a party to this Agreement as a Lender that is a PMP. Each such Lender,
Eligible
Assignee or other Person acknowledges that each of the Lenders and each Dutch
Foreign Obligor
have relied upon the representations and warranties set forth in this Section
3.01(f).
      (g)        Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any Agent or Lender or the L/C
Issuer
determines, in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other
Taxes as to which it
has been indemnified by any Borrower or with respect to which any Borrower has
paid
additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall pay to such Borrower an
amount equal to
such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional
amounts paid, by
such Borrower under this Section with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving
rise to such
refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of such Agent or Lender or the L/C
Issuer, as the case
may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant
Governmental
Authority with respect to such refund), provided that each Borrower, upon the
request of such
Agent or Lender or the L/C Issuer, agrees to repay the amount paid over to such
Borrower (plus
any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental
Authority) to such
Agent or Lender or the L/C Issuer in the event such Agent or Lender or the L/C
Issuer is required
to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This subsection shall not
be construed to
require either Agent, any Lender or the L/C Issuer to make available its tax
returns (or any other
information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to any Borrower or
any other Person.
      3.02        Illegality.
       If any Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any
Governmental
Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable
Lending Office to
make, maintain or fund Eurocurrency Rate Loans (whether denominated in Dollars
or an
Alternative Currency), or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the
Eurocurrency
Rate, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the
authority of such
Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars or any Alternative
Currency in the
applicable interbank market, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the
Company through the
Administrative Agent, any obligation of such Lender to make or continue
Eurocurrency Rate
Loans in the affected currency or currencies, under the affected Subfacility or
Subfacilities or, in
the case of Eurocurrency Rate Loans in Dollars, to convert Base Rate Committed
Loans to
Eurocurrency Rate Loans, shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the
Administrative
Agent and the Company that the circumstances giving rise to such determination
no longer exist.
Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrowers shall, upon demand from such Lender
(with a copy to
the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable and such Loans are
denominated in Dollars,
convert all such Eurocurrency Rate Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans,
either on the last
day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to
maintain such
Eurocurrency Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not
lawfully continue
to maintain such Eurocurrency Rate Loans. Upon any such prepayment or
conversion, the
Borrowers shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.
      3.03        Inability to Determine Rates.
      If the Required Lenders (or the Required Primary Lenders or Required
Singapore
Lenders, in the case of a determination in respect of one Subfacility) determine
that for any
reason in connection with any request for a Eurocurrency Rate Loan or a
conversion to or
continuation thereof that (a) deposits (whether in Dollars or an Alternative
Currency) are not
being offered to banks in the applicable offshore interbank market for such
currency for the
applicable amount and Interest Period of such Eurocurrency Rate Loan, (b)
adequate and
reasonable means do not exist for determining the Eurocurrency Base Rate for any
requested
Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurocurrency Rate Loan (whether
denominated in
Dollars or an Alternative Currency), or (c) the Eurocurrency Base Rate for any
requested Interest
Period with respect to a proposed Eurocurrency Rate Loan does not adequately and
fairly reflect
the cost to such Lenders of funding such Eurocurrency Rate Loan, the
Administrative Agent will
promptly so notify the Company and each Lender. Thereafter, the obligation of
the Lenders to
make or maintain Eurocurrency Rate Loans in the affected currency or currencies
(and, in the
case of a request by the Required Primary Lenders or the Required Singapore
Lenders, under the
affected Subfacility) shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent (upon
the instruction of
the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the
Company may
revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of
Eurocurrency
Rate Loans in the affected currency or currencies or, failing that, will be
deemed to have
converted such request into a request for a Committed Borrowing of Base Rate
Loans in the
amount specified therein.
      3.04        Increased Costs; Reserves on Eurocurrency Rate Loans.
      (a)        Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall:
      (i)        impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit,
compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of,
deposits with
or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender
(except (A) any
reserve requirement reflected in the definition of "Eurocurrency Rate" and (B)
the
requirements of the Bank of England and the Financial Services Authority or the
European Central Bank reflected in the Mandatory Cost, other than as set forth
below) or
the L/C Issuer;
      (ii)        subject any Lender or the L/C Issuer to any tax of any kind
whatsoever
with respect to this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, any participation in a
Letter of
Credit or any Eurocurrency Rate Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation
of
payments to such Lender or the L/C Issuer in respect thereof (except for
Indemnified
Taxes or Other Taxes covered by Section 3.01 and the imposition of, or any
change in the
rate of, any Excluded Tax payable by such Lender or the L/C Issuer);
      (iii)        the Mandatory Cost, as calculated hereunder, does not
represent the cost to
any Lender of complying with the requirements of the Bank of England and/or the
Financial Services Authority or the European Central Bank in relation to its
making,
funding or maintaining Eurocurrency Rate Loans; or
      (iv)        impose on any Lender or the L/C Issuer or the London interbank
market
any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or Eurocurrency
Rate
Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;
and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such
Lender of making or
maintaining any Eurocurrency Rate Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make
any such
Loan), or to increase the cost to such Lender or the L/C Issuer of participating
in, issuing or
maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to
participate in or to issue any
Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by
such Lender or
the L/C Issuer hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount)
then, upon request
of such Lender or the L/C Issuer, the Company will pay (or cause the applicable
Designated
Borrower to pay) to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, such
additional amount or
amounts as will compensate such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be,
for such
additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.
      (b)        Capital Requirements. If any Lender or the L/C Issuer
determines that any
Change in Law affecting such Lender or the L/C Issuer or any Lending Office of
such Lender or
such Lender's or the L/C Issuer's holding company, if any, regarding capital
requirements has or
would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender's or the L/C
Issuer's capital
or on the capital of such Lender's or the L/C Issuer's holding company, if any,
as a consequence
of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by, or
participations in
Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by the
L/C Issuer, to a level
below that which such Lender or the L/C Issuer or such Lender's or the L/C
Issuer's holding
company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into
consideration such
Lender's or the L/C Issuer's policies and the policies of such Lender's or the
L/C Issuer's
holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the
Company will pay
(or cause the applicable Designated Borrower to pay) to such Lender or the L/C
Issuer, as the
case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or
the L/C
Issuer or such Lender's or the L/C Issuer's holding company for any such
reduction suffered.
      (c)        Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender or
the L/C Issuer
setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or the
L/C Issuer or its
holding company, as the case may be, as specified in subsection (a) or (b) of
this Section and
delivered to the Company shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Company
shall pay (or
cause the applicable Designated Borrower to pay) such Lender or the L/C Issuer,
as the case may
be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt
thereof.
      (d)        Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender
or the L/C Issuer to
demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section shall
not constitute a
waiver of such Lender's or the L/C Issuer's right to demand such compensation,
provided that no
Borrower shall be required to compensate a Lender or the L/C Issuer pursuant to
the foregoing
provisions of this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions
suffered more than nine
months prior to the date that such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be,
notifies the
Company of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions
and of such
Lender's or the L/C Issuer's intention to claim compensation therefor (except
that, if the Change
in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then
the nine-month period
referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect
thereof).
      (e)        Additional Reserve Requirements. The Company shall pay (or
cause the
applicable Designated Borrower to pay) to each Lender, (i) as long as such
Lender shall be
required to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting
of or including
Eurocurrency funds or deposits (currently known as "Eurocurrency liabilities"),
additional
interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Eurocurrency Rate Loan equal to
the actual costs
of such reserves allocated to such Loan by such Lender (as determined by such
Lender in good
faith, which determination shall be conclusive), and (ii) as long as such Lender
shall be required
to comply with any reserve ratio requirement or analogous requirement of any
other central
banking or financial regulatory authority imposed in respect of the maintenance
of the
Commitments or the funding of the Eurocurrency Rate Loans, such additional costs
(expressed
as a percentage per annum and rounded upwards, if necessary, to the nearest five
decimal places)
equal to the actual costs allocated to such Commitment or Loan by such Lender
(as determined
by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive), which in
each case shall
be due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan,
provided the
Company shall have received at least 10 days' prior notice (with a copy to the
Administrative
Agent) of such additional interest or costs from such Lender. If a Lender fails
to give notice 10
days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest or
costs shall be due and
payable 10 days from receipt of such notice.
      3.05        Compensation for Losses.
      Upon demand of any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) from
time to
time, the Company shall promptly compensate (or cause the applicable Designated
Borrower to
compensate) such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or
expense
incurred by it as a result of:
      (a)        any continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any Loan
other than a
Base Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such
Loan (whether
voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise);
      (b)        any failure by any Borrower (for a reason other than the
failure of such Lender to
make a Loan) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert any Loan other than a Base
Rate Loan on
the date or in the amount notified by the Company or the applicable Designated
Borrower;
      (c)        any failure by any Borrower to make payment of any Loan or
drawing under any
Letter of Credit (or interest due thereon) denominated in an Alternative
Currency on its
scheduled due date or any payment thereof in a different currency; or
      (d)        any assignment of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan on a day other than
the last day of
the Interest Period therefor as a result of a request by the Company pursuant to
Section 10.13;
including any loss of anticipated profits, any foreign exchange losses and any
loss or expense
arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain
such Loan, from
fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained or
from the
performance of any foreign exchange contract. The Company shall also pay (or
cause the
applicable Designated Borrower to pay) any customary administrative fees charged
by such
Lender in connection with the foregoing.
For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Company (or the applicable
Designated
Borrower) to the Lenders under this Section 3.05, each Lender shall be deemed to
have funded
each Eurocurrency Rate Loan made by it at the Eurocurrency Base Rate used in
determining the
Eurocurrency Rate for such Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the
offshore
interbank market for such currency for a comparable amount and for a comparable
period,
whether or not such Eurocurrency Rate Loan was in fact so funded.

      3.06        Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.
      (a)        Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender
requests compensation
under Section 3.04, or any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to
any Lender or
any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section
3.01, or if any
Lender gives a notice pursuant to Section 3.02, then such Lender shall use
reasonable efforts to
designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder
or to assign its
rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or
affiliates, if, in the
judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or
reduce amounts
payable pursuant to Section 3.01 or 3.04, as the case may be, in the future, or
eliminate the need
for the notice pursuant to Section 3.02, as applicable, and (ii) in each case,
would not subject
such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be
disadvantageous to
such Lender or to such Borrower. The Company hereby agrees to pay (or to cause
the applicable
Designated Borrower to pay) all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any
Lender in
connection with any such designation or assignment.
      (b)        Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation
under Section
3.04, or if any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender
or any
Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01,
the Company
may replace such Lender in accordance with Section 10.13.
      
      3.07        Survival.
      All of the Borrowers' obligations under this Article III shall survive
termination of the
Commitments and repayment of all other Obligations hereunder.

      This Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents have been duly and
validly
executed by each Loan Party that is a party thereto, and delivered to the
Administrative Agent,
and constitute the legal, valid, and binding obligations of each Loan Party that

similar laws affecting creditor's rights generally.
      5.05        Financial Statements; No Material Adverse Effect; No Internal
Control
Event.
      (a)        Except as set forth on Schedule 5.05 attached hereto, as to the

of its Subsidiaries:
        (i)        The Audited Financial Statements, together with the opinion
thereon of
KPMG LLP, independent certified public accountants, and the Company's
consolidating
balance sheet as of December 31, 2004, and the related consolidating statements
of
income and retained earnings and cash flows for the year then ended as prepared
by the
Company, and the Company's interim consolidated and consolidating balance sheet
as of
June 30, 2005, and the related consolidated and consolidating statements of
income and
retained earnings and cash flows for the six-month period then ended, copies of
which
have been furnished to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, fairly present
in all
material respects their financial condition as at such dates and the results of
their
operations for the periods covered by such statements, all in accordance with
GAAP
(subject to year-end adjustments and the absence of footnotes in the case of the
interim
financial statements);
        (ii)        since the date of the Audited Financial Statements, there
has been no
material adverse change in the consolidated condition (financial or otherwise),
business,
or operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole;
      (iii)        there are no liabilities, fixed or contingent, which are
material but are not
reflected in the financial statements or in the notes thereto, other than
liabilities arising in
the ordinary course of business since the date of the last financial statement
delivered
under (i) above, or liabilities not required to be reflected on a balance sheet
under GAAP;
and
      (iv)        the Company and its Subsidiaries are not indebted under any
credit
agreement, indenture, purchase agreement (excluding trade debt), guaranty,
Capital

except as disclosed in the financial statements delivered under (i) above or as
set forth on
Schedule 5.05 attached hereto as of the Closing Date.
      (b)        No written information, exhibit, or report furnished by any
Loan Party to either
Agent or any Lender in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement
contained any
material misstatement of fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary to
make the statement
contained therein not materially misleading, other than unknowing misstatements
or omissions of
facts the occurrence of which could not reasonably have had a material adverse
effect on the
credit decision of either Agent or the Lenders with regard to the Borrowers
taken as a whole;
provided that the foregoing sentence shall not apply to financial and other
projections, it being
understood that each Borrower represents that financial and other projections
provided to the
Agents and the Lenders were made in good faith and based on assumptions believed
by each
Borrower to be reasonable, but that no representation is made as to their
ultimate accuracy.
      (c)        Since the date of the Audited Financial Statements, no Internal
Control Event has
occurred involving (i) fraud of management or other employees who have
significant roles in the
Company's internal controls over financial reporting, or (ii) a material
weakness in the
Company's internal controls over financial reporting which has or could
reasonably be expected
to have (individually or in the aggregate) a negative impact on the Company's
financial
statements in excess of the Threshold Amount, to which the Required Lenders have
reasonably
objected.
      5.06        Litigation.
      Except as set forth in Schedule 5.06, there is no action, suit,
proceeding, claim or dispute
pending or, to the knowledge of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries,
threatened, at law, in
equity, in arbitration or before any Governmental Authority, by or against the
Company or any
of its Subsidiaries or against any of their properties or revenues that (a) in
any one case or in the
aggregate, materially adversely affects the financial condition, operations,
properties, or business
of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, or (b) involves a
significant risk of any
legal impediment to performance by the Loan Parties as a whole of their
obligations under the
Loan Documents.
      5.07        No Default.
      Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is in default under or with respect
to any
Contractual Obligation that could, either individually or in the aggregate,
reasonably be expected
to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Default has occurred and is continuing or
would result
from the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any
other Loan
Document.

      Except as set forth on Schedule 5.08 or in the financial statements
referred to in Section
5.05 as of the Closing Date, the Company and each of its Subsidiaries have title
to, or valid
leasehold interests in, all of its properties and assets, real and personal,
including the properties
and assets and leasehold interests reflected in the financial statements
referred to in Section 5.05
hereof (other than any properties or assets disposed of in the ordinary course
of business). None
of the properties and assets owned by the Company, the Designated Borrowers or
any of their
Subsidiaries, and none of their leasehold interests, is subject to any Lien,
except such as may be
permitted pursuant to Section 7.01.
      5.09        Environmental Compliance.
      To the best of the Company's and each Designated Borrower's respective
knowledge,
except as set forth on Schedule 5.09 attached hereto, and except for such
matters as could not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, no real property owned
or leased by
the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is in violation of any applicable
Environmental Laws, no
Hazardous Materials are present on any of said real property except in
accordance with
applicable law and neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has been
identified in any
litigation, administrative proceedings or investigation as a responsible party
for any liability
under any Environmental Laws.
      5.10        Insurance.
      The properties of the Company and its Subsidiaries are insured with
financially sound
and reputable insurance companies not Affiliates or Subsidiaries of the Company,
in such
amounts, with such deductibles and covering such risks as are customarily
carried by companies
engaged in similar businesses and owning similar properties in localities where
the Company or
the applicable Subsidiary operates.
      5.11        Taxes.
      The Company and each of its Subsidiaries have filed all tax returns
(foreign, federal,
state, and local) required to be filed and, except for such amounts as are
contested in good faith
and for which adequate reserves are established on its books and records in
accordance with
GAAP, have paid all taxes, assessments, and governmental charges and levies
thereon to be due,
or levied or imposed upon them, including any applicable interest and penalties.
The United
States federal income tax liability of the Company and each of its Domestic
Subsidiaries has
been audited by the Internal Revenue Service or has been finally determined and
satisfied for all
taxable years up to and including the taxable year ended December 29, 2000. In
addition, neither
the Company nor any of its Domestic Subsidiaries have any pending material
disputes with the
Internal Revenue Service. There is no proposed tax assessment against the
Company or any
Subsidiary that would, if made, have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the
Company nor any
Subsidiary thereof is party to any tax sharing agreement.
      5.12        ERISA Compliance.
      Each Plan is in compliance in all respects with all applicable provisions
of ERISA.
Except as set forth on Schedule 5.12 attached hereto, no ERISA Event or
prohibited transaction
or violation of the fiduciary responsibility rules with respect to any Plan has
occurred and is
continuing with respect to any Plan; no notice of intent to terminate a Plan has
been filed nor has
any Plan been terminated under circumstances which could result in any material
liability to the
PBGC; no circumstances exist which constitute grounds under Section 4042 of
ERISA entitling
the PBGC to institute proceedings to terminate, or appoint a trustee to
administrate, a Plan, nor
has the PBGC instituted any such proceedings; except as previously disclosed to
each Lender in
writing prior to the Closing Date, neither the Company nor any of its
Subsidiaries, nor any of
their respective ERISA Affiliates has, within the last six years, completely or
partially withdrawn
under Sections 4201 or 4204 of ERISA from a Multiemployer Plan to the extent
ERISA applies
to such Loan Party; the Company, and each of its Subsidiaries and each ERISA
Affiliate have
met their minimum funding requirements under ERISA with respect to each Plan and
there is no
accumulated funding deficiency (as defined in Section 302 of ERISA) with respect
to any Plan to
which such standard applies; and neither the Company, the other Loan Parties nor
any ERISA
Affiliate has incurred any liability to the PBGC under ERISA (other than for
payment of
premiums to PBGC not delinquent). Notwithstanding the foregoing, there shall not
be deemed to
be any breach of representation under this Section 5.12 unless the matters
described herein
would reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Effect.
      5.13        Subsidiaries; Equity Interests.
      Set forth on Schedule 5.13 attached hereto as of the Closing Date is a
complete and
accurate list of, and an organization chart showing, all the direct and indirect
Subsidiaries of the
Company, showing the jurisdiction of incorporation of each, and showing the
percentage and
manner of ownership of the outstanding stock of each Subsidiary. All of the
Foreign Obligors
and all of the Domestic Subsidiaries which are Loan Parties are wholly-owned
Subsidiaries,
directly or indirectly, of the Company (with the exception of director
qualifying shares in any
Subsidiary). To the Borrowers' knowledge, all of the outstanding Equity
Interests of each
Subsidiary have been validly issued, fully paid and are nonassessable, and such
Equity Interests
are owned free and clear of all Liens except those permitted by Section 7.01
hereof. To the
Borrowers' knowledge, all of the outstanding Equity Interests of the Company
have been validly
issued, fully paid and are nonassessable.
      5.14        Margin Regulations; Investment Company Act; Public Utility
Holding
Company Act.
      (a)        The proceeds of the borrowings made hereunder will be used by
the Company
and the Designated Borrowers only for the purposes expressly authorized herein.
None of such
proceeds will be used, directly or indirectly, for the purpose of purchasing or
carrying any
margin stock or for the purpose of reducing or retiring any Indebtedness which
was originally
incurred to purchase or carry margin stock or for any other purpose which
violates or which
would be inconsistent with Regulation U (12 CFR Part 221) or Regulation X (12
CFR Part 224)
of the Board. Neither the Company nor any of the Designated Borrowers nor any
agent acting
on its behalf has taken or will take any action which might cause this Agreement
or any of the
documents or instruments delivered pursuant hereto to violate any regulation of
the Board or to
violate the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Securities Act
of 1933, as
amended, or any state securities laws, in each case as in effect on the date
hereof.
      (b)        No Loan Party nor any Person Controlling the Company or any
Subsidiary is (i)
an "investment company," or an "affiliated person" of, or "promoter" or
"principal underwriter"
for, an "investment company", as such terms are defined in the Investment
Company Act of
1940, as amended (15 U.S.C. S 80a-1, et seq.) or (ii) a "holding company" or a
"subsidiary
company" or "affiliate" of a "holding company" as such terms are defined in the
Public Utility
Holding Company Act of 1935, as amended. The application of the proceeds of the
Loans and
repayment thereof by the Loan Parties and the performance by the Loan Parties of
the
transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents will not violate any provision
of said Act, or
any rule, regulation or order issued by the SEC thereunder, in each case as in
effect on the date
hereof.
      5.15        Disclosure.
      Neither (a) this Agreement or any other Loan Document or certificate or
document
executed and delivered by or on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary in
accordance with or
pursuant to any Loan Document nor (b) any written statement provided to either
Agent in
connection with the negotiation or preparation of the Loan Documents contains
any
misrepresentation or untrue statement of material fact or omits to state a
material fact necessary,
in light of the circumstance under which it was made, in order to make any
warranty,
representation or statement contained therein not misleading.
      5.16        Compliance with Laws.
      Except as otherwise specifically disclosed in this Article V or on any
Schedule referred to
herein or except as could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect, the
Company and each of its Subsidiaries are in compliance with all laws, rules,
regulations and
orders applicable to any of them or any of their respective properties.
      5.17        Intellectual Property; Licenses, Etc.
      Except as set forth on Schedule 5.17 (all of which could not reasonably be
expected to
result in a Material Adverse Effect) and as could not reasonably be expected to
have a Material
Adverse Effect, (a) the Company and each of its Subsidiaries possess all
licenses, permits, fran-
chises, patents, copyrights, trademarks, and tradenames or rights thereto,
necessary for the
conduct of its business substantially as now conducted and as presently proposed
to be
conducted, without conflict with the rights of other Persons, and (b) neither
the Company nor
any of its Subsidiaries are in violation of any valid rights of others with
respect to any of the
foregoing. No claim or litigation regarding any of the foregoing is pending or,
to the best
knowledge of the Company, threatened, which, either individually or in the
aggregate, could
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
      5.18         Representations as to Foreign Obligors.
      Each of the Company and each Foreign Obligor represents and warrants to
the Agents
and the Lenders that:
      (a)        Such Foreign Obligor is subject to civil and commercial Laws
with respect to its
obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a
party
(collectively as to such Foreign Obligor, the "Applicable Foreign Obligor
Documents"), and the
execution, delivery and performance by such Foreign Obligor of the Applicable
Foreign Obligor
Documents constitute and will constitute private and commercial acts and not
public or
governmental acts. Neither such Foreign Obligor nor any of its property has any
immunity from
jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process (whether through service or
notice, attachment
prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution, execution or otherwise) under
the laws of the
jurisdiction in which such Foreign Obligor is organized and existing in respect
of its obligations
under the Applicable Foreign Obligor Documents.
      (b)        The Applicable Foreign Obligor Documents are in proper legal
form under the
Laws of the jurisdiction in which such Foreign Obligor is organized and existing
for the
enforcement thereof against such Foreign Obligor under the Laws of such
jurisdiction, and to
ensure the legality, validity, enforceability, priority or admissibility in
evidence of the Applicable
Foreign Obligor Documents. It is not necessary to ensure the legality, validity,
enforceability,
priority or admissibility in evidence of the Applicable Foreign Obligor
Documents that the
Applicable Foreign Obligor Documents be filed, registered or recorded with, or
executed or
notarized before, any court or other authority in the jurisdiction in which such
Foreign Obligor is
organized and existing or that any registration charge or stamp or similar tax
be paid on or in
respect of the Applicable Foreign Obligor Documents or any other document,
except for (i) any
such filing, registration, recording, execution or notarization as has been made
or is not required
to be made until the Applicable Foreign Obligor Document or any other document
is sought to
be enforced and (ii) any charge or tax as has been timely paid.
      (c)        There is no tax, levy, impost, duty, fee, assessment or other
governmental charge,
or any deduction or withholding, imposed by any Governmental Authority in or of
the
jurisdiction in which such Foreign Obligor is organized and existing either (i)
on or by virtue of
the execution or delivery of the Applicable Foreign Obligor Documents or (ii) on
any payment to
be made by such Foreign Obligor pursuant to the Applicable Foreign Obligor
Documents, except
as has been disclosed to the Administrative Agent.
      (d)        The execution, delivery and performance of the Applicable
Foreign Obligor
Documents executed by such Foreign Obligor are, under applicable foreign
exchange control
regulations of the jurisdiction in which such Foreign Obligor is organized and
existing, not
subject to any notification or authorization except (i) such as have been made
or obtained or (ii)
such as cannot be made or obtained until a later date (provided that any
notification or
authorization described in clause (ii) shall be made or obtained as soon as is
reasonably
practicable).
      5.19        Representations as to Dutch Foreign Obligors.
       Each Dutch Foreign Obligor represents and warrants to the Agents and the
Lenders that:
      (a)        On the date of this Agreement, such Dutch Foreign Obligor has
verified the status
of each Person which is a Lender under a Loan Document on such date and each
such Lender is
either (i) a PMP in accordance with the requirements of the Dutch Exemption
Regulation and the
Dutch Policy Guidelines and/or (ii) is exempted from the PMP requirement because
it forms a
closed circle (gesloten kring) with the relevant Dutch Foreign Obligor; and
      (b)        As of the date on which an Eligible Assignee (or any other
Person to whom any
Lender assigns any of its rights under a Loan Document) becomes a Lender under a
Loan
Document, if it is a requirement of Dutch law that such Eligible Assignee (or
other Person) be a
PMP, such Dutch Foreign Obligor represents and warrants to the Lenders on the
date on which
each such Eligible Assignee (and each such other Person) becomes a party to a
Loan Document
as a Lender that such Dutch Foreign Obligor has verified the status of such
Eligible Assignee (or
such Person) on such date and each such Lender is either (i) a PMP in accordance
with the
requirements of the Dutch Exemption Regulation and the Dutch Policy Guidelines

of such provisions.
      9.02        Rights as a Lender.
      Each Person serving as an Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and
powers in its
capacity, if any, as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as
though it were
not an Agent and the term "Lender" or "Lenders" shall, unless otherwise

individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from,
lend money to, act
as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally
engage in any kind of
business with the Borrowers or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if
such Person were
not an Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.
      9.03        Exculpatory Provisions.
      Neither Agent shall have any duties nor obligations except those expressly
set forth
herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing,
neither Agent:
      (a)        shall be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties,
regardless of
whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;
      (b)        shall have any duty to take any discretionary action or
exercise any
discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly
contemplated
hereby or by the other Loan Documents that such Agent is required to exercise as
directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage
of the
Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan
Documents),
provided that neither Agent shall be required to take any action that, in its
opinion or the

Loan

any information relating to any of the Borrowers or any of their respective
Subsidiaries or
Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as an Agent
or any
of its Affiliates in any capacity.
      Neither Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i)
with the consent or
at the request of the Required Lenders, the Required Primary Lenders or the
Required Singapore
Lenders, as applicable (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as
shall be necessary,
or as such Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the
circumstances as
provided in Sections 10.01 and 8.02) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross
negligence or willful
misconduct. Each Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default
unless and until
notice describing such Default is given to such Agent by the Company, a Lender
or the L/C
Issuer.
      Neither Agent shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or
inquire into (i) any
statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this
Agreement or any other
Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document
delivered hereunder
or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or
observance of any
of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or
therein or the
occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or
genuineness of this
Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or
document or (v) the
satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other

      Each Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any
liability for relying
upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document
or other writing
(including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other
distribution)
believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise
authenticated by the
proper Person. Each Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or
by telephone
and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur
any liability for
relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the
making of a
Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled
to the satisfaction of
a Lender or the L/C Issuer, each Agent may presume that such condition is
satisfactory to such
Lender or the L/C Issuer unless such Agent shall have received notice to the
contrary from such
Lender or the L/C Issuer prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of
such Letter of
Credit. Each Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the
Company),
independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be
liable for any action
taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel,
accountants or
experts.
      9.05        Delegation of Duties.
      Each Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights
and powers
hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more
sub-agents
appointed by such Agent. Each Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and
all of its
duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related
Parties. The
exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to
the Related Parties
of each Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective
activities in connection
with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as
activities as an Agent.
      9.06        Resignation of Agent.
      Either Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the
Lenders, the L/C Issuer
and the Company. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required
Lenders shall
have the right, in consultation with the Company, to appoint a successor. Any
successor
Administrative Agent shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an
Affiliate of any
such bank with an office in the United States. Any successor Singapore
Administrative Agent
shall be a bank with an office in Singapore, or an Affiliate of any such bank
with an office in
Singapore. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required
Lenders and shall
have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent gives
notice of its
resignation, then the retiring Agent may on behalf of the Lenders and, in the
case of a retiring
Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer, appoint a successor Agent meeting the
qualifications set
forth above; provided that if the retiring Agent shall notify the Company and
the Lenders that no
qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall
nonetheless
become effective in accordance with such notice and (1) the retiring Agent shall
be discharged
from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and
(2) all
payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or
through the Agent
shall instead be made by or to each Lender and the L/C Issuer directly, until
such time as the
Required Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided for above in this
Section. Upon the
acceptance of a successor's appointment as an Agent hereunder, such successor
shall succeed to
and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the
retiring (or retired)
Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and
obligations hereunder
or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as
provided above in
this Section). The fees payable by the Company to a successor Agent shall be the
same as those
payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Company and such
successor.
After the retiring Agent's resignation hereunder and under the other Loan
Documents, the
provisions of this Article and Section 10.04 shall continue in effect for the
benefit of such
retiring Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect
of any actions taken
or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Agent was acting as an
Agent.
      Any resignation by Bank of America as Administrative Agent pursuant to
this Section
shall also constitute its resignation as L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender. Upon
the acceptance
of a successor's appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, (a) such
successor shall
succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and
duties of the retiring
L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender, (b) the retiring L/C Issuer and Swing Line
Lender shall be
discharged from all of their respective duties and obligations hereunder or
under the other Loan
Documents, and (c) the successor L/C Issuer shall issue letters of credit in
substitution for the
Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make
other arrangements
satisfactory to the retiring L/C Issuer to effectively assume the obligations of
the retiring L/C
Issuer with respect to such Letters of Credit.
      9.07        Non-Reliance on Agents and Other Lenders.
      Each Lender and the L/C Issuer acknowledges that it has, independently and
without
reliance upon either Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties
and based on such
documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit
analysis and
decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender and the L/C Issuer also
acknowledges that it
will, independently and without reliance upon either Agent or any other Lender
or any of their
Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from
time to time deem
appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action
under or based
upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any
document
furnished hereunder or thereunder.
      9.08        No Other Duties, Etc.
      Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the Joint Book
Managers,
Arranger, Syndication Agent or Co-Documentation Agents listed on the cover page
hereof shall
have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the
other Loan
Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent, a
Lender or the
L/C Issuer hereunder.
      9.09        Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim.
      In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation,
bankruptcy,
reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial
proceeding relative to any
Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of
any Loan or L/C
Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration
or otherwise and
irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on
any Borrower)
shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise
      (a)        to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal
and interest
owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, L/C Obligations and all other
Obligations that
are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or

respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders, the L/C
Issuer and

Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses,
disbursements
and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any
other amounts due

losses, claims,
damages, liabilities or expenses of any kind (whether in tort, contract or
otherwise) arising out of
any Borrower's or Agent's transmission of Borrower Materials through the
Internet, except to
the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are
determined by a court of
competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted
from the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of such Agent Party; provided, however, that in
no event shall
any Agent Party have any liability to any Borrower, any other Agent or Lender,
the L/C Issuer or
any other Person for indirect, special, incidental, consequential or punitive

Issuer and the
Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices (including telephonic
Committed Loan
Notices and Swing Line Loan Notices) purportedly given by or on behalf of any
Borrower even
if (i) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete
or were not
preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein, or (ii) the
terms thereof, as
understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. The Company
shall
indemnify each Agent, the L/C Issuer, each Lender and the Related Parties of
each of them from
all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such
Person on each

telephonic communications with either Agent may be recorded by such Agent, and
each of the
parties hereto hereby consents to such recording.
      10.03         No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies.
      No failure by any Lender or Agent to exercise, and no delay by any such
Person in
exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a
waiver thereof; nor
shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege
hereunder preclude
any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right,
remedy, power or
privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are
cumulative and not
exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law.
      10.04         Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver.

including its rights under this Section, or (B) in connection with the Loans
made or Letters of
Credit issued hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred
during any workout,
restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit.
      (b)        Indemnification by the Company. The Company shall indemnify
each Agent (and
any sub-agent thereof), each Lender and the L/C Issuer, and each Related Party
of any of the
foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an "Indemnitee") against, and
hold each
Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and
related expenses
(including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any
Indemnitee), and shall
indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnitee from all fees and time charges and
disbursements
for attorneys who may be employees of any Indemnitee, incurred by any Indemnitee

against any Indemnitee by any third party or by any Borrower or any other Loan
Party arising
out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of
this Agreement, any
other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or
thereby, the
performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or
thereunder, the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or, in the case
of the Agents
(and any sub-agent thereof) and their respective Related Parties only, the
administration of this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the
use or
proposed use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by the L/C Issuer
to honor a
demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in
connection with such
demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii)
any actual or alleged
presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or
operated by any
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in
any way to any
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim,
litigation,
investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on
contract, tort or
any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by the Company or any
other Loan Party,
and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto, in all cases,
whether or not caused
by or arising, in whole or in part, out of the comparative, contributory or sole
negligence of the
Indemnitee; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be
available to the
extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (x)
are determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have
resulted from the
gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (y) result from a
claim brought by
the Company or any other Loan Party against an Indemnitee for breach in bad
faith of such
Indemnitee's obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if the
Company or such
other Loan Party has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on
such claim as
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.
      (c)        Reimbursement by Lenders. To the extent that the Company for
any reason fails
to indefeasibly pay any amount required under subsection (a) or (b) of this
Section to be paid by
it to either Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), the L/C Issuer or any Related
Party of any of the
foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay to such Agent (or any such
sub-agent), the L/C
Issuer or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender's Applicable
Percentage
(determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity
payment is
sought) of such unpaid amount, provided that the unreimbursed expense or
indemnified loss,
claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by
or asserted
against such Agent (or any such sub-agent) or the L/C Issuer in its capacity as
such, or against
any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for such Agent (or any such
sub-agent) or L/C
Issuer in connection with such capacity. The obligations of the Lenders under
this subsection (c)
are subject to the provisions of Section 2.12(d).
      (d)        Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent
permitted by
applicable law, no Borrower shall assert, and hereby waives, any claim against
any Indemnitee,
on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive
damages (as opposed to
direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of,
this Agreement, any
other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the
transactions
contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the
proceeds thereof.
No Indemnitee referred to in subsection (b) above shall be liable for any
damages arising from
the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials
distributed by it through
telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in
connection with this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or
thereby.

Aggregate
Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other
Obligations.
      10.05         Payments Set Aside.
      To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of any Borrower is made to
either Agent,
the L/C Issuer or any Lender, or either Agent, the L/C Issuer or any Lender
exercises its right of
setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is
subsequently
invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required
(including pursuant to
any settlement entered into by either Agent, the L/C Issuer or such Lender in
its discretion) to be
repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any
proceeding under any
Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the
obligation or part
thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in
full force and effect
as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred, and (b)
each Lender and
the L/C Issuer severally agrees to pay to each Agent upon demand its applicable
share (without
duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by such Agent, plus
interest thereon
from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per
annum equal to the
applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect, in the applicable
currency of such
recovery or payment. The obligations of the Lenders and the L/C Issuer under
clause (b) of the
preceding sentence shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the
termination of
this Agreement.
      10.06         Successors and Assigns.
      (a)        Successors and Assigns Generally. The provisions of this
Agreement shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective
successors and
assigns permitted hereby, except that no Loan Party may assign or otherwise
transfer any of its
rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the
Administrative Agent and
each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or
obligations
hereunder except (i) to an Eligible Assignee in accordance with the provisions
of subsection (b)
of this Section, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions
of subsection (d) of
this Section, (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest
subject to the restrictions
of subsection (f) of this Section, or (iv) to an SPC in accordance with the
provisions of
subsection (h) of this Section (and any other attempted assignment or transfer
by any party
hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied,
shall be
construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their
respective successors
and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in subsection
(d) of this Section
and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of
the Agents, the
L/C Issuer and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under
or by reason of
this Agreement.
      (b)        Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to
one or more
Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this
Agreement (including
all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans (including for purposes of this
subsection (b),
participations in L/C Obligations and in Swing Line Loans) at the time owing to
it); provided
that
      (i)        except in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining
amount of the
assigning Lender's Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it or in the
case of an
assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund with
respect to a
Lender, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes
Loans
outstanding thereunder) or, if the Commitment is not then in effect, the
principal
outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such
assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect
to
such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if "Trade Date" is
specified
in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date, shall not be less than
$5,000,000 unless, in each case, each of the Administrative Agent and, so long
as no
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Company otherwise consents
(each
such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided, however,
that
concurrent assignments to members of an Assignee Group and concurrent
assignments
from members of an Assignee Group to a single Eligible Assignee (or to an
Eligible
Assignee and members of its Assignee Group) will be treated as a single
assignment for
purposes of determining whether such minimum amount has been met;
      (ii)        each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a
proportionate
part of all the assigning Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement
with
respect to the Loans or the Commitment assigned, except that this clause (ii)
shall not
apply to rights in respect of Swing Line Loans;
      (iii)        any assignment of a Commitment must be approved by the
Administrative
Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Swing Line Lender unless the Person that is the
proposed
assignee is itself a Lender (whether or not the proposed assignee would
otherwise qualify
as an Eligible Assignee); and
      (iv)        the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to
the
Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing
and
recordation fee in the amount, if any, required as set forth in Schedule 10.06,
and the
Eligible Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the
Administrative Agent an
Administrative Questionnaire.
Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant
to subsection
(c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each
Assignment and
Assumption, the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement
and, to the
extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the
rights and
obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender
thereunder shall, to the
extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released
from its
obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and
Assumption covering
all of the assigning Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, such
Lender shall
cease to be a party hereto and shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the
Note, if any, in its
favor marked "cancelled" and the Administrative Agent thereafter shall deliver
the same
promptly to the Company) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of
Sections 3.01, 3.04,
3.05, and 10.04 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the
effective date of
such assignment. Upon request, each Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and
deliver a Note
to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or
obligations under
this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated for
purposes of this
Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and
obligations in
accordance with subsection (d) of this Section.
      (c)        Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this
purpose as an agent of
the Borrowers, shall maintain at the Administrative Agent's Office a copy of
each Assignment
and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names
and addresses of
the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Loans and L/C
Obligations
owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the
"Register"). The
entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrowers, the Agents and
the Lenders may
treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms
hereof as a
Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to
the contrary.
The Register shall be available for inspection by each of the Borrowers and the
L/C Issuer at any
reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. In addition,
at any time that
a request for a consent for a material or substantive change to the Loan
Documents is pending,
any Lender may request and receive from the Administrative Agent a copy of the
Register.
      (d)        Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent
of, or notice to,
any Borrower or Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural
person or the
Company or any of the Company's Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a
"Participant") in all or a
portion of such Lender's rights and/or obligations under this Agreement
(including all or a
portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans (including such Lender's
participations in L/C
Obligations and/or Swing Line Loans) owing to it); provided that (i) such
Lender's obligations
under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain
solely responsible to
the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the
Borrowers, the
Agents, the Lenders and the L/C Issuer shall continue to deal solely and
directly with such
Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this
Agreement.
      Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a
participation shall
provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement
and to approve any
amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided
that such
agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the
consent of the
Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in
the first proviso
to Section 10.01 that affects such Participant. Subject to subsection (e) of
this Section, each
Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of
Sections 3.01, 3.04 and
3.05 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by
assignment
pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each
Participant also
shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.08 as though it were a Lender,
provided such
Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.13 as though it were a Lender.
      (e)        Limitation upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be
entitled to receive
any greater payment under Section 3.01 or 3.04 than the applicable Lender would
have been
entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant,
unless the sale of the
participation to such Participant is made with the Company's prior written
consent. A
Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be
entitled to the benefits
of Section 3.01 unless the Company is notified of the participation sold to such
Participant and
such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrowers, to comply with
Section 3.01(e) as
though it were a Lender.
      (f)        Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a
security interest
in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its
Note(s), if any) to
secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure
obligations to a
Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release
such Lender
from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee
for such Lender
as a party hereto.
      (g)        Electronic Execution of Assignments. The words "execution,"
"signed,"
"signature," and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption shall be
deemed to
include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each
of which shall be
of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed
signature or the use of
a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as
provided for in any
applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and
National Commerce
Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other
similar state laws
based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.
      (h)        Special Purpose Funding Vehicles. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary
contained herein, any Lender (a "Granting Lender") may grant to a special
purpose funding
vehicle identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender
to the
Administrative Agent (and, if such Lender is an Singapore Lender, the Singapore
Administrative
Agent) and the Company (an "SPC") the option to provide all or any part of any
Committed
Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make pursuant to
this
Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any
SPC to fund
any Committed Loan, and (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or
otherwise fails to
make all or any part of such Committed Loan, the Granting Lender shall be
obligated to make
such Committed Loan pursuant to the terms hereof or, if it fails to do so, to
make such payment
to the applicable Agent as is required under Section 2.12(b). Each party hereto
hereby agrees
that (i) neither the grant to any SPC nor the exercise by any SPC of such option
shall increase the
costs or expenses or otherwise increase or change the obligations of the
Borrowers under this
Agreement (including its obligations under Section 3.04), (ii) no SPC shall be
liable for any
indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement for which a Lender
would be
liable, and (iii) the Granting Lender shall for all purposes, including the
approval of any
amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of any Loan Document,
remain the
lender of record hereunder. The making of a Committed Loan by an SPC hereunder
shall utilize
the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such
Committed Loan
were made by such Granting Lender. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party
hereto hereby
agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that,
prior to the date
that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding
commercial paper or
other senior debt of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other
Person in instituting
against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency, or
liquidation
proceeding under the laws of the United States or any State thereof.
Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary contained herein, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without prior
consent of the
Company or either Agent and with the payment of a processing fee in the amount
of $2,500,
assign all or any portion of its right to receive payment with respect to any
Committed Loan to
the Granting Lender and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public
information relating
to its funding of Committed Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer
or provider of
any surety or Guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC.
      (i)        Resignation as L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender after
Assignment.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time Bank
of America
assigns all of its Commitment and Loans pursuant to subsection (b) above, Bank
of America
may, (i) upon 30 days' notice to the Company and the Lenders, resign as L/C
Issuer and/or (ii)
upon 30 days' notice to the Company, resign as Swing Line Lender. In the event
of any such
resignation as L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, the Company shall be entitled to
appoint from
among the Lenders a successor L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender hereunder;
provided, however,
that no failure by the Company to appoint any such successor shall affect the
resignation of Bank
of America as L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, as the case may be. If Bank of
America resigns
as L/C Issuer, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of
the L/C Issuer
hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective
date of its
resignation as L/C Issuer and all L/C Obligations with respect thereto
(including the right to
require the Lenders to make Base Rate Committed Loans or fund risk
participations in
Unreimbursed Amounts pursuant to Section 2.03(c)). If Bank of America resigns as
Swing Line
Lender, it shall retain all the rights of the Swing Line Lender provided for
hereunder with respect
to Swing Line Loans made by it and outstanding as of the effective date of such
resignation,
including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Committed Loans or
fund risk
participations in outstanding Swing Line Loans pursuant to Section 2.04(c). Upon
the
appointment of a successor L/C Issuer and/or Swing Line Lender, (a) such
successor shall
succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and
duties of the retiring
L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, as the case may be, and (b) the successor L/C
Issuer shall issue
letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding
at the time of such
succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to Bank of America to
effectively assume the
obligations of Bank of America with respect to such Letters of Credit.
      10.07         Treatment of Certain Information; Confidentiality.
      Each of the Agents, the Lenders and the L/C Issuer agrees to maintain the
confidentiality
of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed
(a) to its
Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates' respective partners, directors,
officers, employees, agents,
advisors and representatives (it being understood that the Persons to whom such
disclosure is
made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and
instructed to keep such
Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory
authority purporting to
have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the
National
Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by
applicable laws or
regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party
hereto, (e) in
connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan
Document or
any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document
or the
enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement
containing provisions
substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or
Participant in, or any
prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations
under this Agreement or
(ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or
derivative transaction
relating to a Borrower and its obligations, (g) with the consent of the Company
or (h) to the
extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of
a breach of this
Section or (y) becomes available to either Agent, any Lender, the L/C Issuer or
any of their
respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the
Company.
      For purposes of this Section, "Information" means all information received
from the
Company or any Subsidiary relating to the Company or any Subsidiary or any of
their respective
businesses, other than any such information that is available to either Agent,
any Lender or the
L/C Issuer on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Company or any
Subsidiary,
provided that, in the case of information received from the Company or any
Subsidiary after the
date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as
confidential. Any
Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in
this Section shall be
considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has
exercised the same
degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such
Person would accord
to its own confidential information.
      Each of the Agents, the Lenders and the L/C Issuer acknowledges that (a)
the Information
may include material non-public information concerning the Company or a
Subsidiary, as the
case may be, (b) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of
material non-
public information and (c) it will handle such material non-public information
in accordance
with applicable Law, including Federal and state securities Laws.
      10.08         Right of Setoff.
      If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender,
the L/C Issuer
and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and
from time to time, to
the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply any and all
deposits (general
or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any
time held and other
obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender, the L/C
Issuer or any such
Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Borrower against any and
all of the obligations
of such Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other
Loan Document
to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, irrespective of whether or not such Lender or
the L/C Issuer
shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and
although
such obligations of such Borrower may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to
a branch or
office of such Lender or the L/C Issuer different from the branch or office
holding such deposit
or obligated on such indebtedness. The rights of each Lender, the L/C Issuer and
their respective
Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies
(including other rights of
setoff) that such Lender, the L/C Issuer or their respective Affiliates may
have. Each Lender and
the L/C Issuer agrees to notify the Company and the Administrative Agent
promptly after any
such setoff and application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall
not affect the
validity of such setoff and application.
      10.09         Interest Rate Limitation.
      Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document,
the interest
paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum
rate of non-
usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the "Maximum Rate"). If either
Agent or any
Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the
excess interest
shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid
principal, refunded to
the Company. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or
received by an
Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent
permitted by
applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an
expense, fee, or premium
rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof,
and (c) amortize,
prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of
interest throughout the
contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.
      10.10         Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness.
      This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties
hereto in
different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of
which when taken
together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement and the other Loan
Documents
constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter
hereof and
supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written,
relating to the
subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall
become
effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when
the
Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken
together, bear the
signatures of each of the other parties hereto. Delivery of an executed
counterpart of a signature
page of this Agreement by telecopy shall be effective as delivery of a manually
executed
counterpart of this Agreement.
      10.11         Survival of Representations and Warranties.
      All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan
Document or
other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or
therewith shall
survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and
warranties have
been or will be relied upon by each Agent and Lender, regardless of any
investigation made by
either Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that either
Agent or any
Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of any Credit
Extension,
and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other
Obligation hereunder
shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied or any Letter of Credit shall remain
outstanding.
      10.12         Severability.
      If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to
be illegal,
invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the
remaining provisions
of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired
thereby and
(b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the
illegal, invalid or
unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which
comes as close as
possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The
invalidity of a provision
in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such
provision in any
other jurisdiction.
      10.13         Replacement of Lenders.
      If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04, or if any Borrower
is required
to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the
account of
any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or
if any other
circumstance exists hereunder that gives the Company the right to replace a
Lender as a party
hereto, then the Company may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to
such Lender and the
Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without
recourse (in
accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents
required by, Section
10.06), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and
the related Loan
Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may
be another
Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that:
      (a)        the Company shall have paid (or caused another Loan Party to
pay) to the
Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 10.06(b);
      (b)        such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to
the outstanding
principal of its Loans and L/C Advances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees
and all other
amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including
any amounts
under Section 3.05) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding
principal and accrued
interest and fees) or the Company or applicable Designated Borrower (in the case
of all other
amounts);
      (c)        in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for
compensation under
Section 3.04 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 3.01, such
assignment will
result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; and
      (d)        such assignment does not conflict with applicable Laws.
      A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation
if (i) prior
thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender (if not a Defaulting Lender) or
otherwise, the
circumstances entitling the Company to require such assignment and delegation
cease to apply,
(ii) in the case of a Primary Lender, circumstances entitling the Company to
require such
assignment and delegation apply to Primary Lenders holding more than 50% of the
Aggregate
Primary Commitments (or Lenders holding more than 50% of Total Primary
Outstandings if
commitments to make Loans have been terminated), or (iii) in the case of a
Singapore Lender,
circumstances entitling the Company to require such assignment and delegation
apply to
Singapore Lenders holding more than 50% of the Aggregate Singapore Commitments
(or
Lenders holding more than 50% of Total Singapore Outstandings if commitments to
make Loans
have been terminated).
      10.14         Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Etc.
      (a)        GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND
CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
      (b)        SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION. EACH BORROWER IRREVOCABLY
AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS, FOR ITSELF AND ITS PROPERTY, TO THE
NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK
SITTING IN THE COUNTY OF NEW YORK AND OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT
COURT OF THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK AND ANY APPELLATE COURT
FROM ANY THEREOF, IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR
RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, OR FOR
RECOGNITION OR ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT, AND EACH OF THE
PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY AGREES THAT ALL
CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND
DETERMINED IN SUCH NEW YORK STATE COURT OR, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT
PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN SUCH FEDERAL COURT. EACH OF THE
PARTIES HERETO AGREES THAT A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR
PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER
JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER
PROVIDED BY LAW. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT OR IN ANY OTHER LOAN
DOCUMENT SHALL AFFECT ANY RIGHT THAT EITHER AGENT, ANY LENDER OR
THE L/C ISSUER MAY OTHERWISE HAVE TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING
RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AGAINST
ANY BORROWER OR ITS PROPERTIES IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION.
            (c)        WAIVER OF VENUE. EACH BORROWER IRREVOCABLY AND
UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY
APPLICABLE LAW, ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO
THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR
RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT IN ANY
COURT REFERRED TO IN PARAGRAPH (B) OF THIS SECTION. EACH OF THE
PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT
PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE DEFENSE OF AN INCONVENIENT FORUM
TO THE MAINTENANCE OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT.
            (d)        SERVICE OF PROCESS. EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY
CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE MANNER PROVIDED FOR NOTICES IN
SECTION 10.02. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT WILL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY
PARTY HERETO TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY
APPLICABLE LAW.
      10.15         Waiver of Jury Trial.
      EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST
EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL
BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT
OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR
THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED
ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO
(A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER
PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER
PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE
FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER
PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND
THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL
WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.
      10.16         USA PATRIOT Act Notice.
      Each Lender that is subject to the Act (as hereinafter defined) and the
Administrative
Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Borrowers
that pursuant to
the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed
into law October 26,
2001)) (the "Act"), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that
identifies the
Borrowers, which information includes the name and address of each Borrower and
other
information that will allow such Lender or either Agent, as applicable, to
identify such Borrower
in accordance with the Act.
      10.17         Judgment Currency
      . If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary
to convert a sum
due hereunder or any other Loan Document in one currency into another currency,
the rate of
exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking
procedures the
Administrative Agent could purchase the first currency with such other currency
on the Business
Day preceding that on which final judgment is given. The obligation of each
Borrower in
respect of any such sum due from it to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders
hereunder or
under the other Loan Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency
(the
"Judgment Currency") other than that in which such sum is denominated in
accordance with the
applicable provisions of this Agreement (the "Agreement Currency"), be
discharged only to the
extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the Administrative Agent of
any sum
adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Administrative Agent may in
accordance
with normal banking procedures purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment
Currency.
If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum
originally due to the
Administrative Agent from any Borrower in the Agreement Currency, such Borrower
agrees, as
a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the
Administrative
Agent or the Person to whom such obligation was owing against such loss. If the
amount of the
Agreement Currency so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to the
Administrative
Agent in such currency, the Administrative Agent agrees to return the amount of
any excess to
such Borrower (or to any other Person who may be entitled thereto under
applicable law).

      IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be
duly
executed as of the date first above written.
