hereinafter set forth, to make Advances to the Borrower from time to time on any Business Day
during the period from the Effective Date until the Termination Date in an aggregate amount (based
in respect of any Advances denominated in a Committed Currency on the Equivalent in Dollars
determined on the date of delivery of the applicable Notice of Borrowing) not to exceed at any time
outstanding the Dollar amount set forth opposite such Lender’s name on the signature pages hereof
or, if such Lender has become a Lender hereunder pursuant to an Assumption Agreement, the Dollar
amount set forth as the Commitment of such Lender in such Assumption Agreement or, if such Lender
has entered into an Assignment and Acceptance the Dollar amount set forth for such Lender in the
Register maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 9.07(c), as such amount may be
reduced pursuant to Section 2.04 or increased pursuant to Section 2.19 (such Lender’s “Commitment”)
in any case and at any time less the amount of such Lender’s ratable portion of Letter of Credit
Liability, provided, that, the Lenders shall not be obligated to, and shall not, make any Advances
as part of a Borrowing if after giving effect to such Borrowing the sum of the then outstanding
aggregate amount of all Borrowings, and the then outstanding aggregate amount of all Letter of
Credit Liability shall exceed the aggregate amount of the Commitments then in effect. Each
Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount of $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in
excess thereof (or the Equivalent thereof in any Committed Currency determined on the date of
delivery of the applicable Notice of Borrowing); provided, that, in the case of any Borrowing made
for the purpose of reimbursing a drawing under any Letter of Credit, (A) the aggregate amount of
such Borrowing shall be not less than $1,000,000 and (B) if the aggregate amount of such Borrowing
is less than $20,000,000, such Borrowing shall consist solely of Base Rate Advances. Except as set
forth in clause (B) of the preceding sentence, each Borrowing shall consist of Advances of the same
Type made on the same day by the Lenders ratably according to their respective Commitments. Within
the limits of each Lender’s Commitment, the Borrower from time to time may borrow under this
Section 2.01, prepay pursuant to Section 2.10 and reborrow under this Section 2.01.




          SECTION 2.02 Making the Advances. (a) Each Borrowing shall be made on notice, given
not later than (x) 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the same Business Day as the date of a
proposed Borrowing comprised of Base Rate Advances, (y) 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the
third Business




14









 







Day prior to the date of a proposed Borrowing comprised of Eurocurrency Rate
Advances denominated in any Committed Currency, or (z) 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the third
Business Day prior to the date of a proposed Borrowing comprised of Eurocurrency Rate Advances
denominated in Dollars, by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of a
Borrowing consisting in Eurocurrency Rate Advances denominated in any Committed Currency,
simultaneously to the Sub-Agent), which shall give to each Lender prompt notice thereof by
telecopier. Each such notice of a Borrowing (a “Notice of Borrowing”) shall be by telecopier, or
by telephone, confirmed immediately by telecopier, in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto,
specifying therein the requested (i) date of such Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), (ii)
Type of Advances comprising such Borrowing, (iii) aggregate amount of such Borrowing, and (iv) in
the case of a Borrowing comprised of Eurocurrency Rate Advances, initial Interest Period and
currency for each such Advance. Each Lender shall, before (A) 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on
the date of such Borrowing consisting of Advances denominated in Dollars or (B) 1:00 P.M. (London
time) on the date of such Borrowing consisting of Advances denominated in any Committed Currency,
make available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Administrative Agent at the
Administrative Agent’s (or the Sub-Agent’s, as the case may be) Account, in same day funds, such
Lender’s ratable portion of such Borrowing. After the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such funds
and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article IV, the Administrative Agent
will make such funds available to the Borrower at the office where the Administrative Agent’s (or
the Sub-Agent’s, as the case may be) Account is maintained.




          (b) Anything in subsection (a) above or Section 2.01 to the contrary notwithstanding, the
Borrower may not select Eurocurrency Rate Advances for any Borrowing if the aggregate amount of
such Borrowing is less than $20,000,000 (or the Equivalent thereof in any Committed Currency
determined on the date of delivery of the applicable Notice of Borrowing) or if the obligation of
the Lenders to make Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall be suspended at such time pursuant to Section
2.08.




          (c) Each Notice of Borrowing shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower. In the case of
any Borrowing which the related Notice of Borrowing specifies as to be comprised of Eurocurrency
Rate Advances, the Borrower shall indemnify each Lender against any loss, cost or expense incurred
by such Lender as a result of any failure to fulfill on or before the date specified in such Notice
of Borrowing for such Borrowing the applicable conditions set forth in Article IV, including,
without limitation, any loss, cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or redeployment
of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund the Advance to be made by such Lender as
part of such Borrowing when such Advance, as a result of such failure, is not made on such date.




          (d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender on or prior to
the date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such
Lender’s ratable portion of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender
has made such portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in
accordance with subsection (a) of this Section 2.02 and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance
upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and
to the extent that any Lender shall not have so made such ratable portion available to the
Administrative Agent, such Lender agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand
such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is
made available to the Borrower until the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent, at
(A) the Federal Funds Rate in the case of Advances denominated in Dollars or (B) the cost of funds
incurred by the Administrative Agent in
respect of such amount in the case of Advances denominated in Committed Currencies; provided,
however, that (i) within two Business Days after any Lender shall fail to make such ratable portion
available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of such
failure and (ii) if such Lender shall not have paid such corresponding amount to the Administrative
Agent within two Business Days after such demand is made of such Lender by the Administrative
Agent, the Borrower agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith, upon demand by the
Administrative Agent to the Borrower, such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for
each day from the date such




15









 







amount is made available to the Borrower until the date such amount is
repaid to the Administrative Agent, at the interest rate applicable at the time to Advances
comprising such Borrowing. If and to the extent such corresponding amount shall be paid by such
Lender to the Administrative Agent in accordance with this Section 2.02(d), such amount so paid
shall constitute such Lender’s Advance as part of such Borrowing for all purposes of this
Agreement.




          (e) The failure of any Lender to make the Advance to be made by it as part of any Borrowing
shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Advance on the
date of such Borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to
make the Advance to be made by such other Lender on the date of any Borrowing.




          SECTION 2.03 Fees. (a) Facility Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to each Lender a
facility fee on the average daily amount (whether used or unused) of such Lender’s Commitment (i)
in the case of each Initial Lender, from the Effective Date, or (ii) in the case of any Lender
other than an Initial Lender, the effective date specified in the Assumption Agreement or the
Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which it became a Lender, until, in each case, the
Termination Date, payable quarterly in arrears on the first Business Day of each January, April,
July and October during the term of such Lender’s Commitment, commencing April 1, 2006, and on the
Termination Date, at the rate per annum equal to the Facility Fee Percentage in effect from time to
time.




          (b) Utilization Fee. For each day on which the sum of (i) the outstanding Advances
and (ii) the Letter of Credit Liability exceeds 50% of the Commitments, the Borrower agrees to pay
to the Agent for the account of each Lender, a utilization fee equal to the quotient obtained by
dividing (A) the product of (1)the sum of (a) the Letter of Credit Liability on such day and (b)
the difference between the aggregate outstanding Advances on such day and the outstanding Base Rate
Advances on such day and (2) the Utilization Fee Percentage by (B) 365 (or, for any such day in a
leap year, 366). This Utilization Fee shall be paid quarterly in arrears on the first Business Day
of each January, April, July and October of each year, and on the Termination Date.




          SECTION 2.04 Reduction of the Commitments. The Borrower shall have the right, upon at
least three Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, to terminate in whole or reduce
ratably in part the unused portions of the respective Commitments of the Lenders; provided that
each partial reduction shall be in the aggregate amount of $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of
$1,000,000 in excess thereof and; provided, further, that after giving effect to any such partial
reduction, the total Commitments shall not be less than the sum of (i) the then outstanding
aggregate amount of Advances and (ii) the greater of (x) Letter of Credit Liability or (y)
aggregate amount of LC Commitments. Once terminated, such Commitments may not be reinstated.




          SECTION 2.05 Repayment of Advances. The Borrower shall repay to each Lender on the Termination Date the aggregate principal
amount of the Advances owing to such Lender on such date.




          SECTION 2.06 Interest on Advances. (a) Scheduled Interest. The Borrower shall pay
to each Lender interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Advance owing to such Lender from
the date of such Advance until such principal amount shall be paid in full, at the following rates
per annum:





          (i) Base Rate Advances. During such periods as such Advance is a Base Rate
Advance, a rate per annum equal at all times to the Base Rate in effect from time to time,
payable quarterly in arrears on the first Business Day of each January, April, July and
October during such periods and on the date such Base Rate Advance shall be Converted or
paid in full and, for the avoidance of doubt, a Utilization Fee shall not be payable during
such periods as such Advance is a Base Rate Advance.



16









 







          (ii) Eurocurrency Rate Advances. During such periods as such Advance is a
Eurocurrency Rate Advance, a rate per annum equal at all times during each Interest Period
for such Advance to the sum of (A) the Eurocurrency Rate for such Interest Period for such
Advance and (B) the Eurocurrency Rate Margin in effect from time to time, payable in arrears
on the last day of such Interest Period and, if such Interest Period has a duration of more
than three months, on the date which occurs three months and, if applicable, six months,
nine months and twelve months after the first day of such Interest Period and on the date
such Eurocurrency Rate Advance shall be Converted or paid in full .



          (b) Default Interest. The Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount
of each Advance that is not paid when due and on the unpaid amount of all interest, fees and other
amounts payable hereunder that is not paid when due, payable on demand, at a rate per annum equal
at all times to (i) in the case of any amount of principal, the greater of (x) 2% per annum above
the rate per annum required to be paid on such Advance immediately prior to the date on which such
amount became due and (y) 2% per annum above the Base Rate in effect from time to time and (ii) to
the fullest extent permitted by law, in the case of all other amounts, 2% per annum above the Base
Rate in effect from time to time.




          SECTION 2.07 Additional Interest on Eurocurrency Rate Advances. The Borrower shall
pay to each Lender, so long as such Lender shall be required under regulations of the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets
consisting of or including Eurocurrency Liabilities, additional interest on the unpaid principal
amount of each Eurocurrency Rate Advance of such Lender, from the date of such Advance until such
principal amount is paid in full, at an interest rate per annum equal at all times to the remainder
obtained by subtracting (i) the Eurocurrency Rate for the applicable Interest Period for such
Advance from (ii) the rate obtained by dividing such Eurocurrency Rate by a percentage equal to
100% minus the Eurocurrency Rate Reserve Percentage of such Lender for such Interest Period,
payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Advance. Such additional interest shall
be determined by such Lender and notified in reasonable detail to the Borrower through the
Administrative Agent.




          SECTION 2.08 Interest Rate Determination. (a) To the extent required, each Reference
Bank agrees to furnish to the Administrative Agent timely information for the purpose of
determining each Eurocurrency Rate. If any one or more of
the Reference Banks shall not furnish such timely information to the Administrative Agent for
the purpose of determining such interest rate, the Administrative Agent shall determine such
interest rate on the basis of timely information furnished by the remaining Reference Banks.




          (b) The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the Borrower and the Lenders of the
applicable interest rate determined by the Administrative Agent for purposes of Section 2.06(a)(i)
or (a)(ii), and, if applicable, the rate, if any, furnished by each Reference Bank for the purpose
of determining the applicable interest rate under Section 2.06(a)(ii).




          (c) If fewer than two Reference Banks furnish timely information to the Administrative Agent
for purposes of determining the Eurocurrency Rate for any Eurocurrency Rate Advances, (i) the
Administrative Agent shall forthwith notify the Borrower and the Lenders that the interest rate
cannot be determined for such Eurocurrency Rate Advances, (ii) each such Advance will
automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into a Base
Rate Advance (or, if such Advance is then a Base Rate Advance, will continue as a Base Rate
Advance), and (iii) the obligation of the Lenders to make, or to Convert Advances into,
Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the
Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist.




17









 








          (d) If, with respect to any Eurocurrency Rate Advances, the Majority Lenders notify the
Administrative Agent that (i) they are unable to obtain matching deposits in the London inter-bank
market at or about 11:00 A.M. (London time) on the second Business Day before the making of a
Borrowing in sufficient amounts to fund their respective Eurocurrency Rate Advances as a part of
such Borrowing during its Interest Period or (ii) the Eurocurrency Rate for any Interest Period for
such Advances will not adequately reflect the cost to such Majority Lenders (which cost each such
Majority Lender reasonably determines in good faith is material) of making, funding or maintaining
their respective Eurocurrency Rate Advances for such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent
shall forthwith so notify the Borrower and the Lenders, whereupon, unless the Eurocurrency Rate
Margin shall be increased to reflect such costs as determined by such Majority Lenders and as
agreed by the Borrower, (A) the obligation of the Lenders to make, or to Convert Base Rate Advances
into, Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the
Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist, and (B)
the Borrower will, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, (1) if such
Eurocurrency Rate Advances are denominated in Dollars, either (x) prepay such Advances or (y)
Convert such Advances into Base Rate Advances and (2) if such Eurocurrency Rate Advances are
denominated in any Committed Currency, either (x) prepay such Advances or (y) redenominate such
Advances into an Equivalent amount of Dollars and Convert such Advances into Base Rate Advances.
The Administrative Agent shall use reasonable efforts to determine from time to time whether the
circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist and, promptly after the Administrative Agent
knows that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist, the Administrative Agent
shall so notify the Borrower and the Lenders.




          (e) If the Borrower shall fail to select the duration of any Interest Period for any
Eurocurrency Rate Advances in accordance with the provisions contained in the definition of
“Interest Period” in Section 1.01, the Administrative Agent will forthwith so notify the Borrower
and the Lenders and such Advances will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest
Period therefor, (i) if such Eurocurrency Rate Advances are denominated in Dollars, be Converted
into Base Rate Advances and (ii) if such Eurocurrency Rate Advances are denominated in a Committed
Currency, be redenominated into an Equivalent amount of Dollars and be Converted into Base Rate
Advances.




          (f) On the date on which the aggregate unpaid principal amount of Eurocurrency Rate Advances
comprising any Borrowing shall be reduced, by payment or prepayment or otherwise, to
less than $20,000,000, such Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall automatically Convert into Base
Rate Advances and, on and after such date, the right of the Borrower to Convert such Advances into
Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall terminate; provided, however, that if and so long as each such
Eurocurrency Rate Advance shall have the same Interest Period as Eurocurrency Rate Advances
comprising another Borrowing or Borrowings, and the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all such
Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall equal or exceed $20,000,000, the Borrower shall have the right to
continue all such Eurocurrency Rate Advances as, or to Convert all such Advances into, Eurocurrency
Rate Advances having such Interest Period.




          (g) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default under Section
7.01(a), (i) each Eurocurrency Rate Advance will automatically, on the last day of the then
existing Interest Period therefor, (A) if such Eurocurrency Rate Advances are denominated in
Dollars, be Converted into Base Rate Advances and (B) if such Eurocurrency Rate Advances are
denominated in any Committed Currency, be redenominated into an Equivalent amount of Dollars and be
Converted into Base Rate Advances and (ii) the obligation of the Lenders to make, or to Convert
Advances into, Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall be suspended.




          SECTION 2.09 Optional Conversion of Advances. The Borrower may on any Business Day,
upon notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than (i) 11:00 A.M. (New York City time)




18









 








on
the same Business Day as the date of the proposed Conversion in the case of a Conversion of
Eurocurrency Rate Advances into Base Rate Advances, and (ii) 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the
third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Conversion in the case of a Conversion of Base
Rate Advances into Eurocurrency Rate Advances or of Eurocurrency Rate Advances of one Interest
Period into Eurocurrency Rate Advances of another Interest Period, as the case may be, and subject
to the provisions of Sections 2.08, 2.09 and 2.12, Convert all Advances denominated in Dollars of
one Type comprising the same Borrowing into Advances denominated in Dollars of the other Type;
provided, however, that any Conversion of any Eurocurrency Rate Advances into Base Rate Advances or
into Eurocurrency Rate Advances of another Interest Period shall be made on, and only on, the last
day of an Interest Period for such Eurocurrency Rate Advances. Promptly upon receipt from the
Borrower of a notice of a proposed Conversion hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall give notice
of such proposed Conversion to each Lender. Each such notice of a Conversion shall, within the
restrictions set forth above, specify (x) the date of such Conversion (which shall be a Business
Day), (y) the Advances to be Converted, and (z) if such Conversion is into Eurocurrency Rate
Advances, the duration of the initial Interest Period for each such Advance. The Borrower may
Convert all Eurocurrency Rate Advances of any one Lender into Base Rate Advances of such Lender in
accordance with the provisions of Section 2.12 by complying with the procedures set forth therein
and in this Section 2.09 as though each reference in this Section 2.09 to Advances denominated in
Dollars of any Type was to such Advances of such Lender. Each such notice of Conversion shall,
subject to the provisions of Sections 2.08 and 2.12, be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower.




          SECTION 2.10 Prepayments of Advances. (a) Optional. The Borrower may, upon not less
than (i) the same Business Day’s notice to the Administrative Agent received not later than 11:00
A.M. (New York City time) in the case of Borrowings consisting of Base Rate Advances, (ii) three
Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent received not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City
time) in the case of Borrowings consisting of Eurocurrency Rate Advances denominated in any
Committed Currency, or (iii) three Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent received not
later than 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) in the case of Borrowings consisting of Eurocurrency Rate
Advances denominated in Dollars, stating the proposed date and aggregate principal amount of the
prepayment, and if such notice is given the Borrower shall, prepay
the outstanding principal amounts of the Advances constituting part of the same Borrowings in
whole or ratably in part, together with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the
principal amount prepaid; provided, however, that (x) each partial prepayment shall be in an
aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof
(or the Equivalent thereof in a Committed Currency determined on the date notice of prepayment is
given), and (y) in the case of any such prepayment of Eurocurrency Rate Advances, the Borrower
shall be obligated to reimburse the Lenders in respect thereof pursuant to Section 9.04(b).




          (b) Mandatory. (i) If, the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower in writing
that, on any date, the sum of (A) the aggregate principal amount of all Advances and Letter of
Credit Liabilities denominated in Dollars then outstanding and (B) the Equivalent in Dollars
(determined on the third Business Day prior to such date) of the aggregate principal amount of all
Advances and Letter of Credit Liabilities denominated in Committed Currencies then outstanding
exceeds 102% of the aggregate Commitments of the Lenders on such date, the Borrower shall, within
two Business Days after receipt of such notice, prepay the outstanding principal amount of any
Advances, and to the extent necessary, deposit into the LC Collateral Account in Dollars, an amount
(which amount shall be held by the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, as cash
collateral for the Borrower’s obligations with respect to outstanding Letters of Credit) necessary
so that, after giving effect to such prepayment of Advances and such deposit, the sum of (A) and
(B) above less the amount deposited in the LC Collateral Account does not exceed 100% of the
aggregate Commitments of the Lenders on such date as set forth in the written notice from the
Administrative Agent to the Borrower pursuant to the terms hereof. Any such




19









 








amounts on deposit
with the Administrative Agent as cash collateral in the LC Collateral Account shall (so long as no
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) be released to the Borrower on the date on which
the sum of (A) and (B) above does not exceed 100% of the sum of the aggregate Commitments of the
Lenders and the amount on deposit in the LC Collateral Account (after giving effect to any proposed
release) on such date. In connection therewith, upon the request of the Administrative Agent the
Borrower shall open the LC Collateral Account with the Administrative Agent and enter into such
documents relating thereto as are reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent.





          (ii) Each prepayment made pursuant to this Section 2.10(b) shall be made together with
any interest accrued to the date of such prepayment on the principal amounts prepaid and, in
the case of any prepayment of a Eurocurrency Rate Advance on a date other than the last day
of an Interest Period, with any additional amounts which the Borrower shall be obligated to
reimburse to the Lenders in respect thereof pursuant to Section 9.04(b). The Administrative
Agent shall give prompt notice of any prepayment required under this Section 2.10(b) to the
Borrower and the Lenders.



          SECTION 2.11 Increased Costs. (a) If after the date hereof, due to either (i) the
introduction of or any change (other than any change by way of imposition or increase of reserve
requirements included in the Eurocurrency Rate Reserve Percentage) in or in the interpretation of
any law or regulation or (ii) the compliance with any hereafter promulgated guideline or request
from any central bank or other governmental authority, including, without limitation, any agency of
the European Union or similar monetary or multinational authority (whether or not having the force
of law), which guideline or request either (x) imposes, modifies or deems applicable any reserve,
special deposit or similar requirement against letters of credit or guarantees issued by, or assets
held by or deposits in or for the account of, any Lender or (y) imposes on any Lender any other
condition regarding this Agreement or any collateral thereon, there shall be any increase in the
cost (excluding any allocation of corporate overhead) to the Issuing Banks or any Lender (which
cost such Issuing Bank or such Lender reasonably determines in good faith is material) of agreeing
to make or making, funding or maintaining Eurocurrency Rate Advances or issuing, or
purchasing participations in, the Letters of Credit, then such Issuing Bank or such Lender
shall so notify the Borrower promptly after such Issuing Bank or such Lender knows of such
increased cost and determines that such cost is material and the Borrower shall from time to time,
upon demand by such Issuing Bank or such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative
Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank or such Lender
additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Issuing Bank or such Lender for such increased
cost. A certificate of such Issuing Bank or such Lender as to the amount of such increased cost in
reasonable detail and stating the basis upon which such amount has been calculated and certifying
that such Issuing Bank’s or such Lender’s method of allocating such costs is fair and reasonable
and that such Issuing Bank’s or such Lender’s demand for payment of such costs hereunder is not
inconsistent with its treatment of other borrowers which, as a credit matter, are substantially
similar to the Borrower and which are subject to similar provisions, submitted to the Borrower and
the Administrative Agent by such Issuing Bank or such Lender, shall be conclusive and binding for
all purposes, absent manifest error.




          (b) If, after the date hereof, either (i) the introduction of or change in or in the
interpretation of any law or regulation or (ii) the compliance by any Issuing Bank or any Lender
with any hereafter promulgated guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental
authority, including, without limitation, any agency of the European Union or similar monetary or
multinational authority (whether or not having the force of law), affects or would affect the
amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Issuing Bank or such Lender or any
entity controlling such Issuing Bank or such Lender and the amount of such capital is materially
increased by or based upon the existence of such Issuing Bank’s or such Lender’s commitment to lend
hereunder and other commitments of this type, then such Issuing Bank or such Lender shall so notify
the Borrower promptly after such




20









 







Issuing Bank or such Lender makes such determination and, upon
demand by such Issuing Bank or such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative
Agent), the Borrower shall pay to such Issuing Bank or such Lender within five days from the date
of such demand, from time to time as specified by such Issuing Bank or such Lender, additional
amounts sufficient to compensate such Issuing Bank or such Lender or such controlling entity in the
light of such circumstances, to the extent that such Issuing Bank or such Lender reasonably
determines such increase in capital to be allocable to the existence of such Issuing Bank’s or such
Lender’s commitment to lend hereunder. A certificate of such Issuing Bank or such Lender as to
such amount in reasonable detail and stating the basis upon which such amount has been calculated
and certifying that such Issuing Bank’s or such Lender’s method of allocating such increase of
capital is fair and reasonable and that such Issuing Bank’s or Lender’s demand for payment of such
increase of capital hereunder is not inconsistent with its treatment of other borrowers which, as a
credit matter, are substantially similar to the Borrower and which are subject to similar
provisions, submitted to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent by such Issuing Bank or such
Lender, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.




          (c) The Borrower shall not be obligated to pay under this Section 2.11 any amounts which
relate to costs or increases of capital incurred prior to the 12 months immediately preceding the
date of demand for payment of such amounts, unless the applicable law, regulation, guideline or
request resulting in such costs or increases of capital is imposed retroactively. In the case of
any law, regulation, guideline or request which is imposed retroactively, the Issuing Bank or
Lender making demand for payment of any amount under this Section 2.11 shall notify the Borrower
not later than 12 months from the date that such Issuing Bank or such Lender should reasonably have
known of such law, regulation, guideline or request and the Borrower’s obligation to compensate
such Issuing Bank or such Lender for such amount is contingent upon such Issuing Bank or such
Lender so notifying the Borrower; provided, however, that any failure by such Issuing Bank or such
Lender to provide such notice shall not affect the Borrower’s obligations under this Section 2.11
with respect to amounts resulting from costs or increases of capital incurred after the date which
occurs 12 months immediately preceding the date on which such Issuing Bank or such Lender notified
the Borrower of such law, regulation, guideline or request.




          (d) If any Issuing Bank or any Lender shall subsequently recoup any costs (other than from the
Borrower) for which such Issuing Bank or such Lender has theretofore been compensated by the
Borrower under this Section 2.11, such Issuing Bank or such Lender shall remit to the Borrower an
amount equal to the amount of such recoupment. Amounts required to be paid by the Borrower
pursuant to this Section 2.11 shall be paid in addition to, and without duplication of, any amounts
required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.14.




          (e) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrower hereunder, the
agreements and obligations of the Borrower contained in this Section 2.11 shall survive the payment
in full (after the Termination Date) of all payment obligations of the Borrower in respect of
Advances or Letters of Credit hereunder.




          SECTION 2.12 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if
any Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent that the introduction of or any change in or in
the interpretation of any law or regulation after the date hereof makes it unlawful, or any central
bank or other governmental authority asserts that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its
Eurocurrency Lending Office to perform its obligations hereunder to make Eurocurrency Rate Advances
in Dollars or any Committed Currency or to fund or maintain Eurocurrency Rate Advances in Dollars
or any Committed Currency, (a) the obligation of such Lender to make, or to Convert Base Rate
Advances into, Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall be suspended until such Lender shall notify the
Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the other Lenders
(which notice shall be given promptly after the Administrative Agent knows that the circumstances
causing such suspension no longer




21









 







exist) that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer
exist, and (b) the Borrower shall forthwith prepay in full all Eurocurrency Rate Advances of such
Lender then outstanding, together with interest accrued thereon, unless the Borrower, within five
Business Days of notice from the Administrative Agent or, if permitted by law, on and as of the
last day of the then existing Interest Period for such Eurocurrency Rate Advances, (i) if such
Eurocurrency Rate Advance is denominated in Dollars, Converts it into a Base Rate Advance or an
Advance that bears interest at the rate set forth in Section 2.06(a)(i), and (ii) if such
Eurocurrency Rate Advance is denominated in any Committed Currency, redenominates it into an
Equivalent amount of Dollars and Converts it into a Base Rate Advance or an Advance that bears
interest at the rate set forth in Section 2.06(a)(i).




          SECTION 2.13 Payments and Computations. (a) The Borrower shall make each payment
hereunder (and under the Notes, if any), irrespective of any right of set-off or counterclaim,
except with respect to principal of, interest on, and other amounts relating to, Advances
denominated in a Committed Currency, not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the day when
due, in Dollars (i) to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s (or Sub-Agent’s)
Account in same day funds, or (ii) to the Issuing Bank at its address referred to in Section 9.02
in same day funds, in respect of payments to reimburse the Issuing Banks for payments under Letters
of Credit and the payments under Section 3.06(b). The Borrower shall make each payment hereunder,
irrespective of any right of set-off or counterclaim, with respect to principal of, interest on,
and other amounts relating to, Advances denominated in a Committed Currency, not later than 11:00
A.M. (at the Payment Office for such Committed Currency) on the day when due, in such Committed
Currency to the Administrative Agent, by deposit of such funds to the Administrative Agent’s (or
Sub-Agent’s) Account in same day funds. The Borrower shall make each payment hereunder,
irrespective of any right of set-off or counterclaim, with respect to reimbursement of a Letter of
Credit denominated in a Committed Currency, (A) in such Committed Currency, at the office
designated therefor by the respective Issuing Bank so long as such payment is made by the close of
business on the Business Day when due and (B) thereafter in Dollars (at the then Dollar
Equivalent of the amount due on such preceding Business Day), by 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) to
the respective Issuing Bank at its address referred to in Section 9.02 in same day funds as
provided in Section 3.10 below. The Administrative Agent or the respective Issuing Bank, as the
case may be, will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of
principal or interest or fees ratably (other than amounts payable pursuant to Sections 2.07, 2.11,
2.14, 3.04, 9.04 and 9.08) to the Lenders for the account of their respective Applicable Lending
Offices, and like funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any Issuing Bank or
Lender to such Issuing Bank or Lender for the account of its Applicable Lending Office, in each
case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon any Assuming Lender
becoming a Lender hereunder as a result of a Commitment Increase pursuant to Section 2.19 or an
extension of the Termination Date pursuant to Section 2.20, and upon the Administrative Agent’s
receipt of such Lender’s Assumption Agreement and recording of the information contained therein in
the Register, from and after the applicable Increase Date or Extension Date, or the respective
Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the Administrative Agent shall make all payments hereunder and
under any Notes issued in connection therewith in respect of the interest assumed thereby to the
Assuming Lender. Upon its acceptance of an Assignment and Acceptance and recording of the
information contained therein in the Register pursuant to Section 9.07(d), from and after the
effective date specified in such Assignment and Acceptance, the Administrative Agent or the
respective Issuing Bank, as the case may be, shall make all payments hereunder and under the Notes,
if any, issued in connection therewith in respect of the interest assigned thereby to the Lender
assignee thereunder, and the parties to such Assignment and Acceptance shall make all appropriate
adjustments in such payments for periods prior to such effective date directly between themselves.




          (b) All computations of interest based on clause (a) of the definition of “Base Rate” shall be
made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and
all computations of interest based on the Eurocurrency Rate or the Federal Funds Rate and of fees




22









 







shall be made by the Administrative Agent, and all computations of additional interest pursuant to
Section 2.07 shall be made by a Lender, on the basis of a year of 360 days (or, in each case of
Advances denominated in Committed Currencies where market practice differs, in accordance with
such market practice after notification of the Borrower), in each case for the actual number of
days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such
interest or fees are payable. Each determination by the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of
Section 2.07, by a Lender) of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all
purposes, absent manifest error.




          (c) Whenever any payment hereunder or under the Notes, if any, shall be stated to be due on a
day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and
such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or
fees, as the case may be; provided, however, that if such extension would cause payment of interest
on or principal of Eurocurrency Rate Advances to be made in the next following calendar month, such
payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day.




          (d) Unless the Administrative Agent or the respective Issuing Bank shall have received notice
from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Lenders or an Issuing Bank
hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume
that the Borrower has made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent or the respective
Issuing Bank on such date and the Administrative Agent or the respective Issuing Bank may, in
reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each Lender on such due date an amount
equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent that the Borrower shall not have so
made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent or the respective Issuing Bank, each Lender
shall repay to the Administrative Agent or the respective Issuing Bank, forthwith on demand such
amount distributed to such Lender together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such
amount is distributed to such
Lender until the date such Lender repays such amount to the Administrative Agent or the
respective Issuing Bank, at (i) the Federal Funds Rate in the case of Advances denominated in
Dollars or (ii) the cost of funds incurred by the Administrative Agent in respect of such amount in
the case of Advances or Letters of Credit denominated in Committed Currencies.




          SECTION 2.14 Taxes. (a) Subject to Section 2.14(f) below, any and all payments by
the Borrower hereunder or under the Notes, if any, shall be made, in accordance with Section 2.13,
free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts,
deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding, in the
case of each Lender and the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank (as the case may be), taxes,
levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto,
imposed on its income, and franchise taxes imposed on it, by the jurisdiction under the laws of
which such Lender, the Administrative Agent or such Issuing Bank (as the case may be) is organized
or any political subdivision thereof and, in the case of each Lender, further excluding taxes,
levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto,
imposed on its income, and franchise taxes imposed on it by the jurisdiction of such Lender’s
Applicable Lending Office or any political subdivision thereof or by any other jurisdiction in
which such Lender, the Administrative Agent or such Issuing Bank (as the case may be) is doing
business that is unrelated to this Agreement (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts,
deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”).
Subject to Section 2.14(f) below, if the Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from
or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to any Lender, the Administrative Agent or any Issuing
Bank (as the case may be), (i) the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after
making all required deductions of Taxes (including deductions of Taxes applicable to additional
sums payable under this Section 2.14) such Lender, the Administrative Agent or such Issuing Bank
(as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such
deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower




23









 







shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrower shall pay
the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with
applicable law.




          (b) In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes
or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies which arise from any payment made
hereunder or under the Notes, if any, or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or
otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or the Notes, if any (hereinafter referred to as “Other
Taxes”).




          (c) Subject to Section 2.14(f), the Borrower will indemnify each Lender and the Administrative
Agent and each Issuing Bank (as the case may be) for the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes
(including, without limitation, any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts
payable under this Section 2.14) paid by such Lender, the Administrative Agent or such Issuing Bank
(as the case may be) and any liability (including penalties to the extent not imposed as a result
of such Lender’s, the Administrative Agent’s or such Issuing Bank’s (as the case may be) gross
negligence or willful misconduct, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto,
whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. This indemnification
shall be made within 30 days from the date such Lender, the Administrative Agent or such Issuing
Bank (as the case may be) makes written demand therefor.




          (d) Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Taxes, the Borrower will furnish to the
Administrative Agent, at its address referred to in Section 9.02 or the Issuing Bank at its address
referred to in Schedule I (as the case may be), the original or a certified copy of a receipt
evidencing payment thereof, to the extent that such a receipt is issued, or if such receipt is not
issued, other evidence
of payment thereof that is reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent or such Issuing
Bank (as the case may be).




          (e) Each Lender that is not created or organized under the laws of the United States or a
political subdivision thereof shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or
prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement, and each such Lender that is not
a party hereto on the date hereof shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or
prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender pursuant to Section 2.19, 2.20 or 9.07, as
the case may be, as applicable, two true, accurate and complete original signed copies of Form
W-8BEN (or any successor or substitute form or forms) of the Internal Revenue Service of the United
States (the “IRS”) or two true, accurate and complete original signed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI (or
any successor or substitute form or forms) certifying, in the either such case, that such Lender is
exempt from United States withholding tax on payments pursuant to this Agreement. As applicable,
each Lender further agrees to deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent from time to
time, as reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, and in any case before
or promptly upon the occurrence of any events requiring a change in the most recent certificate
previously delivered pursuant to this Section 2.14(e), a true, accurate and complete original
signed copy of IRS Form W-8BEN (or any successor or substitute form or forms required under the
Internal Revenue Code or the applicable regulations promulgated thereunder) or, within 15 days
prior to every third anniversary of the date of delivery of the initial IRS Form W-8ECI by such
Lender (or more often if required by law) on which this Agreement is still in effect, a true,
accurate and complete original signed copy of IRS Form W-8ECI (or any successor or substitute form
or forms required under the Internal Revenue Code or the applicable regulations promulgated
thereunder) certifying in either such case that such Lender is exempt from United States
withholding tax on payments pursuant to this Agreement. If any form or document referred to in
this subsection (e) requires the disclosure of information, other than information necessary to
compute the tax payable and information required on the date hereof by IRS Forms W-8BEN or W-8ECI,
that any Lender reasonably considers to be confidential, such Lender promptly shall give notice
thereof to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and shall not be obligated to include in such
form or document such confidential information;




24









 







provided that such Lender certifies to the Borrower
that the failure to disclose such confidential information does not increase the obligations of the
Borrower under this Section 2.14.




          (f) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.14 to the contrary, for any period
with respect to which a Lender has failed to provide the Borrower with the appropriate form
described in Section 2.14(e) establishing its exemption from United States withholding tax on
payments hereunder (other than if such failure is due to a change in law occurring subsequent to
the date on which such form originally was required to be provided), such Lender shall not be
entitled to any payments under this Section 2.14 with respect to United States withholding taxes;
provided, however, that should a Lender become subject to United States withholding taxes because
of its failure to deliver a form required hereunder, the Borrower shall take such steps as the
Lender shall reasonably request to assist the Lender to recover such United States withholding
taxes.




          (g) Without affecting its rights under this Section 2.14 or any provision of this Agreement,
each Lender agrees that if any Taxes or Other Taxes are imposed and required by law to be paid or
to be withheld from any amount payable to any Lender or its Applicable Lending Office with respect
to which the Borrower would be obligated pursuant to this Section 2.14 to increase any amounts
payable to such Lender or to pay any such Taxes or Other Taxes, such Lender shall use reasonable
efforts to select an alternative Applicable Lending Office which would not result in the imposition
of such Taxes or Other Taxes; provided, however, that no Lender shall be obligated to select an
alternative Applicable Lending Office if such Lender determines that (i) as a result of such
selection such Lender would be in violation of an applicable law, regulation, or treaty, or would
incur unreasonable additional costs or
expenses or (ii) such selection would be inadvisable for regulatory reasons or inconsistent
with the interests of such Lender.




          (h) Each Lender agrees with the Borrower that it will take all reasonable actions by all usual
means (i) to secure and maintain the benefit of all benefits available to it under the provisions
of any applicable double tax treaty concluded by the United States of America to which it may be
entitled by reason of the location of such Lender’s Applicable Lending Office or place of
incorporation or its status as an enterprise of any jurisdiction having any such applicable double
tax treaty, if such benefit would reduce the amount payable by the Borrower in accordance with this
Section 2.14 and (ii) otherwise to cooperate with the Borrower to minimize the amount payable by
the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.14; provided, however, that no Lender shall be obliged to
disclose to the Borrower any information regarding its tax affairs or tax computations nor to
reorder its tax affairs or tax planning pursuant hereto.




          (i) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrower hereunder, the
agreements and obligations of the Borrower contained in this Section 2.14 shall survive the payment
in full of principal and interest on all Advances and the termination of this Agreement until such
date as all applicable statutes of limitations (including any extensions thereof) have expired with
respect to such agreements and obligations of the Borrower contained in this Section 2.14.




          SECTION 2.15 Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Lender shall obtain any payment
(whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise) on
account of (i) the Advances made by it (other than pursuant to Section 2.07, 2.11, 2.14, 9.04 or
9.08) in excess of its ratable share of payments on account of the Advances obtained by all the
Lenders or (ii) any Letter of Credit Liability of the Borrower hereunder (other than pursuant to
Section 2.11, 2.14, 9.04 or 9.08) in excess of its LC Commitment Percentage of any such payments on
account of such Letter of Credit Liability obtained by all the Lenders, such Lender shall forthwith
purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Advances made by them or the
participations purchased pursuant to Section 3.05 as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing
Lender to share the excess payment ratably with each of them, provided, however, that if all or any
portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from




25









 







such purchasing Lender, such purchase
from each Lender shall be rescinded and such Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the
purchase price to the extent of such recovery, together with an amount equal to such Lender’s
ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Lender’s required repayment to
(ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid
or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered. The Borrower
agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section
2.15 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the
right of set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct
creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.




          SECTION 2.16 Mandatory Assignment by a Lender; Mitigation. If any Lender requests
from the Borrower either payment of additional interest on Eurocurrency Rate Advances pursuant to
Section 2.07, or reimbursement for increased costs pursuant to Section 2.11, or payment of or
reimbursement for Taxes pursuant to Section 2.14, or if any Lender notifies the Administrative
Agent that it is unlawful for such Lender or its Eurocurrency Lending Office to perform its
obligations hereunder pursuant to Section 2.12, (i) such Lender will, upon three Business Days’
notice by the Borrower to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, to the extent not inconsistent
with such Lender’s internal policies and applicable legal and regulatory restrictions, use
reasonable efforts to make, fund or maintain its Eurocurrency Rate Advances through another
Eurocurrency Lending Office of such Lender if (A) as a result thereof the additional amounts
required to be paid pursuant to Section
2.07, 2.11 or 2.14, as applicable, in respect of such Eurocurrency Rate Advances would be
materially reduced or the provisions of Section 2.12 would not apply to such Lender, as applicable,
and (B) as determined by such Lender in good faith but in its sole discretion, the making or
maintaining of such Eurocurrency Rate Advances through such other Eurocurrency Lending Office would
not otherwise materially and adversely affect such Eurocurrency Rate Advances or such Lender and
(ii) unless such Lender has theretofore taken steps to remove or cure, and has removed or cured,
the conditions creating such obligation to pay such additional amounts or the circumstances
described in Section 2.12, the Borrower may designate an Eligible Assignee to purchase for cash
(pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance) all, but not less than all, of the Advances and funded
participations in Letters of Credit then owing to such Lender and all, but not less than all, of
such Lender’s rights and obligations hereunder, without recourse to or warranty by, or expense to,
such Lender, for a purchase price equal to the outstanding principal amount of each such Advance
then owing to such Lender plus any accrued but unpaid interest thereon and any accrued but unpaid
fees owing thereto and, in addition, (A) all additional cost reimbursements, expense reimbursements
and indemnities, if any, owing in respect of such Lender’s Commitment hereunder, and all other
accrued and unpaid amounts owing to such Lender hereunder, at such time shall be paid to such
Lender and (B) if such Eligible Assignee is not otherwise a Lender at such time, the applicable
processing and recordation fee under Section 9.07(a) for such assignment shall have been paid.




          SECTION 2.17 Evidence of Debt. (a) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its
usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender
resulting from each Advance owing to such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of
principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder. The Borrower
agrees that upon notice by any Lender to the Borrower (with a copy of such notice to the
Administrative Agent) to the effect that a promissory note or other evidence of indebtedness is
required or appropriate in order for such Lender to evidence (whether for purposes of pledge,
enforcement or otherwise) the Advances owing to, or to be made by, such Lender, the Borrower shall
promptly execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note or other evidence of indebtedness, in
form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower and such Lender (each a “Note”), payable
to the order of such Lender in a principal amount equal to the Commitment of such Lender; provided,
however, that the execution and delivery of such promissory note or other evidence of indebtedness
shall not be a condition precedent to the making of any Advance under this Agreement.




26









 








          (b) The Register maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 9.07(c) shall
include a control account, and a subsidiary account for each Lender, in which accounts (taken
together) shall be recorded (i) the date and amount of each Borrowing made hereunder, the Type of
Advances and currencies comprising such Borrowing and, if appropriate, the Interest Period
applicable thereto, (ii) the terms of each Assumption Agreement and each Assignment and Acceptance
delivered to and accepted by it, (iii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or
to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder, and (iv) the amount of any
sum received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower hereunder and each Lender’s share
thereof.




          (c) Entries made in good faith by the Administrative Agent in the Register pursuant to
subsection (b) above, and by each Lender in its account or accounts pursuant to subsection (a)
above, shall be prima facie evidence of the amount of principal and interest due and payable or to
become due and payable from the Borrower to, in the case of the Register, each Lender and, in the
case of such account or accounts, such Lender, under this Agreement, absent manifest error;
provided, however, that the failure of the Administrative Agent or such Lender to make an entry, or
any finding that an entry is incorrect, in the Register or such account or accounts shall not limit
or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement.




          SECTION 2.18 Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Advances shall be available and
Letters of Credit shall be Issued (and the Borrower agrees that it shall use such proceeds and such
Letters of Credit) to support the obligations of the Borrower in respect of commercial paper issued
by the Borrower and/or for other general corporate purposes of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.18, the Borrower will not use the
proceeds of any Advance to purchase the capital stock of any corporation in a transaction, or as
part of a series of transactions, (i) the purpose of which is, at the time of any such purchase, to
acquire control of such corporation or (ii) the result of which is the ownership by the Borrower
and its Subsidiaries of 10% or more of the capital stock of such corporation, in either case if the
board of directors of such corporation has publicly announced its opposition to such transaction.




          SECTION 2.19 Increase in the Aggregate Commitments. (a) The Borrower may, at any
time but in any event not more than once in any calendar year prior to the Termination Date, by
notice to the Administrative Agent, request that the aggregate amount of the Commitments be
increased by an amount of $25,000,000 or an integral multiple of $5,000,000 in excess thereof (each
a “Commitment Increase”) to be effective as of a date that is at least 90 days prior to the
scheduled Termination Date then in effect (the “Increase Date”) as specified in the related notice
to the Administrative Agent; provided, however, that (i) in no event shall the aggregate amount of
the Commitments hereunder and the aggregate amount of the Commitments under the Four-Year Credit
Agreement at any time exceed $5,000,000,000, and (ii) no Event of Default, or event that with the
giving of notice or passage of time or both would constitute an Event of Default, shall have
occurred and be continuing as of the date of such request or as of the applicable Increase Date, or
shall occur as a result thereof.




          (b) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders of a request by the Borrower
for a Commitment Increase, which notice shall include (i) the proposed amount of such requested
Commitment Increase, (ii) the proposed Increase Date and (iii) the date by which Lenders wishing to
participate in the Commitment Increase must commit to an increase in the amount of their respective
Commitments (the “Commitment Date”). Each Lender that is willing to participate in such requested
Commitment Increase (each an “Increasing Lender”) shall give written notice to the Administrative
Agent on or prior to the Commitment Date of the amount by which it is willing to increase its
Commitment. If the Lenders notify the Administrative Agent that they are willing to increase the
amount of their respective Commitments by an aggregate amount that exceeds the amount of the




27









 







requested Commitment Increase, the requested Commitment Increase shall be allocated among the
Lenders willing to participate therein in such amounts as are agreed between the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent. The failure of any Lender to respond shall be deemed to be a refusal of such
Lender to increase its Commitment.




          (c) Promptly following each Commitment Date, the Administrative Agent shall notify the
Borrower as to the amount, if any, by which the Lenders are willing to participate in the requested
Commitment Increase. If the aggregate amount by which the Lenders are willing to participate in
any requested Commitment Increase on any such Commitment Date is less than the requested Commitment
Increase, then the Borrower may extend offers to one or more Eligible Assignees to participate in
any portion of the requested Commitment Increase that has not been committed to by the Lenders as
of the applicable Commitment Date; provided, however, that the Commitment of each such Eligible
Assignee shall be in an amount of $25,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess
thereof.




          (d) On each Increase Date, each Eligible Assignee that accepts an offer to participate in a
requested Commitment Increase in accordance with Section 2.19(c) (each such Eligible Assignee and
each Eligible Assignee that agrees to an extension of the Termination Date in accordance with
Section 2.20(c), an “Assuming Lender”) shall become a Lender party to this Agreement as of such
Increase Date and the Commitment of each Increasing Lender for such requested Commitment Increase
shall be so increased by such amount (or by the amount allocated to such Lender pursuant to the
last sentence of Section 2.19(b)) as of such Increase Date; provided, however, that the
Administrative Agent shall have received on or before such Increase Date the following, each dated
such date:





          (i) (A) certified copies of resolutions of the Board of Directors of the Borrower or
the Executive Committee of such Board approving the Commitment Increase and the
corresponding modifications to this Agreement and (B) an opinion of counsel for the Borrower
(which may be in-house counsel), in substantially the form of Exhibit C hereto;




          (ii) an assumption agreement from each Assuming Lender, if any, in form and substance
satisfactory to the Assuming Lender, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (each an
“Assumption Agreement”), duly executed by such Assuming Lender, the Administrative Agent and
the Borrower; and




          (iii) confirmation from each Increasing Lender of the increase in the amount of its
Commitment in a writing satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.



          (e) On each Increase Date, upon fulfillment of the conditions set forth in Section 2.19(d),
the Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders (including, without limitation, each Assuming
Lender) and the Borrower, on or before 1:00 P.M. (New York City time), by telecopier, of the
occurrence of the Commitment Increase to be effected on such Increase Date and shall record in the
Register the relevant information with respect to each Increasing Lender and each Assuming Lender
on such date.




          SECTION 2.20 Extension of Termination Date. (a) At least 45 days but not more than
60 days prior to the next Anniversary Date, the Borrower, by written notice to the Administrative
Agent, may request an extension of the Termination Date in effect at such time by one calendar year
from its then scheduled expiration; provided, however, that, if the Borrower does not request an
extension of the Termination Date in a timely manner prior to any Anniversary Date it may, but
shall not be obligated to, request that the Termination Date be extended for two consecutive
calendar years from its then scheduled expiration by making a request therefor in a timely manner
prior to the next succeeding Anniversary Date. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each
Lender of such request, and each Lender shall in




28









 







turn, in its sole discretion, not later than 30
days prior to such next Anniversary Date, notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in
writing as to whether such Lender will consent to such extension. If any Lender shall fail to
notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower in writing of its consent to any such request for
extension of the Termination Date at least 30 days prior to the next Anniversary Date, such Lender
shall be deemed to be a Declining Lender with respect to such request. The Administrative Agent
shall notify the Borrower not later than 25 days prior to such next Anniversary Date of the
decision of the Lenders regarding the Borrower’s request for an extension of the Termination Date.




          (b) If all of the Lenders consent in writing to any such request in accordance with subsection
(a) of this Section 2.20, the Termination Date in effect at such time shall, effective as at such
next Anniversary Date (the “Extension Date”), be extended for one calendar year or two calendar
years, as properly requested; provided that on each Extension Date, no Event of Default, or event
that with the giving of notice or passage of time or both would constitute an Event of Default,
shall have occurred and
be continuing, or shall occur as a consequence thereof. If less than all of the Lenders
consent in writing to any such request in accordance with subsection (a) of this Section 2.20, the
Termination Date in effect at such time shall, effective as at the applicable Extension Date, be
extended as to those Lenders that so consented (each an “Extending Lender”) but shall not be
extended as to any other Lender (each a “Declining Lender”). To the extent that the Termination
Date is not extended as to any Lender pursuant to this Section 2.20 and the Commitment of such
Lender is not assumed in accordance with subsection (c) of this Section 2.20 on or prior to the
applicable Extension Date, the Commitment of such Declining Lender shall automatically terminate in
whole on such unextended Termination Date without any further notice or other action by the
Borrower, such Lender or any other Person and any outstanding Advances due to such Declining Lender
shall be paid in full on such unextended Termination Date; provided that such Declining Lender’s
rights under Sections 2.11, 2.14, 9.04 and 9.08, and its obligations under Section 8.05, shall
survive the Termination Date for such Lender as to matters occurring prior to such date. It is
understood and agreed that no Lender shall have any obligation whatsoever to agree to any request
made by the Borrower for any requested extension of the Termination Date.




          (c) If there are any Declining Lenders, the Borrower may arrange for one or more Extending
Lenders or other Eligible Assignees (each such Eligible Assignee that accepts an offer to assume a
Declining Lender’s Commitment as of the applicable Extension Date being an “Assuming Lender”) to
assume, effective as of the Extension Date, any Declining Lender’s Commitment and all of the
obligations of such Declining Lender under this Agreement thereafter arising, without recourse to
or warranty by, or expense to, such Declining Lender; provided, however, that the amount of the
Commitment of any such Assuming Lender as a result of such substitution shall in no event be less
than $25,000,000 unless the amount of the Commitment of such Declining Lender is less than
$25,000,000, in which case such Assuming Lender shall assume all of such lesser amount; and
provided further that:





          (i) any such Extending Lender or Assuming Lender shall have paid to such Declining
Lender (A) the aggregate principal amount of, and any interest accrued and unpaid to the
effective date of the assignment on, the outstanding Advances, if any, of such Declining
Lender plus (B) any accrued but unpaid fees owing to such Declining Lender as of the
effective date of such assignment;




          (ii) all additional costs reimbursements, expense reimbursements and indemnities
payable to such Declining Lender, and all other accrued and unpaid amounts owing to such
Declining Lender hereunder, as of the effective date of such assignment shall have been paid
to such Declining Lender; and




          (iii) with respect to any such Assuming Lender, the applicable processing and
recordation fee required under Section 9.07(a) for such assignment shall have been paid;



29









 




provided further that such Declining Lender’s rights under Sections 2.11, 2.14, 9.04 and 9.08, and
its obligations under Section 8.05, shall survive such substitution as to matters occurring prior
to the date of substitution. At least three Business Days prior to any Extension Date, (A) each
such Assuming Lender, if any, shall have delivered to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent an
assumption agreement, in form and substance satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent (an “Assumption Agreement”), duly executed by such Assuming Lender, such Declining Lender,
the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, (B) any such Extending Lender shall have delivered
confirmation in writing satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent as to the
increase in the amount of its Commitment and (C) each Declining Lender being replaced pursuant to
this Section 2.20 shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent any Note or Notes held by such
Declining Lender. Upon the payment or prepayment of all amounts referred to in clauses (i), (ii)
and (iii) of the immediately preceding sentence, each such Extending Lender or Assuming Lender, as
of the Extension Date, will be substituted
for such Declining Lender under this Agreement and shall be a Lender for all purposes of this
Agreement, without any further acknowledgment by or the consent of the other Lenders, and the
obligations of each such Declining Lender hereunder shall, by the provisions hereof, be released
and discharged.




          (d) If all of the Extending and Assuming Lenders (after giving effect to any assignments and
assumptions pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section 2.20) consent in writing to a requested
extension (whether by written consent pursuant to subsection (a) of this Section 2.20, by execution
and delivery of an Assumption Agreement or otherwise) not later than one Business Day prior to such
Extension Date, the Administrative Agent shall so notify the Borrower, and, so long as no Event of
Default, or event that with the giving of notice or passage of time or both would constitute an
Event of Default, shall have occurred and be continuing as of such Extension Date, or shall occur
as a consequence thereof, the Termination Date then in effect shall be extended for the additional
one-year period or two-year period, as the case may be, as described in subsection (a) of this
Section 2.20, and all references in this Agreement, and in the Notes, if any, to the “Termination
Date” shall, with respect to each Extending Lender and each Assuming Lender for such Extension
Date, refer to the Termination Date as so extended. Promptly following each Extension Date, the
Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders (including, without limitation, each Assuming Lender)
of the extension of the scheduled Termination Date in effect immediately prior thereto and shall
thereupon record in the Register the relevant information with respect to each such Extending
Lender and each such Assuming Lender.




ARTICLE III

AMOUNT AND TERMS OF LETTERS OF

CREDIT AND PARTICIPATIONS THEREIN




          SECTION 3.01 Letters of Credit. (a) As of the Effective Date, without further action
on the part of any Person, each Existing Letter of Credit shall be automatically deemed to be a
Letter of Credit issued hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement in the amounts, upon the terms
and conditions provided therein and in favor of the beneficiaries specified on Schedule III hereto,
and the original issuing bank of each such Letter of Credit shall be the Issuing Bank thereof for
all purposes hereof.




          (b) Each Issuing Bank agrees, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, to Issue for
the account of the Borrower, one or more Letters of Credit from time to time during the period from
the date of this Agreement until the Termination Date, each Letter of Credit to be in a minimum
amount of $1,000,000 (or the Equivalent thereof in any Committed Currency determined on the date of
delivery of the applicable Notice of Letter of Credit Request) and each such Letter of Credit upon
its Issuance to expire on or before thirty days prior to the Termination Date (except for
Auto-Renewal Letters of Credit as provided in Section 3.01(d) below); provided, however, that an
Issuing Bank shall not be obligated to, and shall not, Issue any Letter of Credit if:




30









 









     (i) after giving effect to the Issuance of such Letter of Credit, the sum of the then
outstanding aggregate amount of all Letter of Credit Liability and the then outstanding
principal amount of all Advances, shall exceed the aggregate amount of the Commitments then
in effect; provided, that, the respective Issuing Bank may assume that the aggregate amount
of the Commitments then in effect shall not be so exceeded if it has not been so informed by
the Administrative Agent within two Business Days after receiving the notice delivered by
the Borrower pursuant to Section 3.03 below;




     (ii) after giving effect to the Issuance of such Letter of Credit, the then outstanding
aggregate amount of Letter of Credit Liability in respect of all Letters of Credit shall
exceed the
aggregate amount of the LC Commitments then in effect; provided, that, the respective
Issuing Bank may assume that the aggregate amount of the LC Commitments then in effect shall
not be so exceeded if it has not been so informed by the Administrative Agent within two
Business Days after receiving the notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to Section 3.03
below;




     (iii) after giving effect to the Issuance of such Letter of Credit, the then
outstanding aggregate amount of all Letter of Credit Liability in respect of Letters of
Credit Issued by such Issuing Bank shall exceed the Issuing Commitment of such Issuing Bank;
or




     (iv) the Borrower is not able to meet any of the applicable conditions set forth in
Article IV, and the Administrative Agent or the Majority Lenders shall have notified the
Issuing Banks and the Borrower that no further Letters of Credit are to be Issued by the
Issuing Banks due to such failure, and such notice has not been withdrawn.



          (c) Each Issuing Bank shall provide to the Administrative Agent in writing, on the last
Business Day of each month, a report with respect to the outstanding Letters of Credit issued by
such Issuing Bank, which report shall (i) set forth the undrawn amount and drawn but unreimbursed
amount as of the end of each day during that month of all such Letters of Credit and (ii) shall
calculate the Letter of Credit Liability in respect of such Letters of Credit on such date
(converting any amounts of the Letter of Credit Liability which are denominated in a Committed
Currency to Dollars for purposes of such calculation). Promptly after receiving such reports, the
Administrative Agent shall forward copies thereof to each Lender and the Borrower and, if the
Dollar amount of all such Letter of Credit Liabilities exceeds the total of LC Commitments, the
Borrower shall promptly upon receipt thereof make the payments provided for in Section 2.10 above,
if applicable.




          (d) If the Borrower so requests, an Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, agree to issue a
Letter of Credit that has automatic renewal provisions (an “Auto-Renewal Letter of Credit”);
provided, that any such Auto-Renewal Letter of Credit must permit the respective Issuing Bank to
prevent any such renewal at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with its date of
Issuance) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the “Non-Renewal
Notice Date”) in each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit
is issued. Once an Auto-Renewal Letter of Credit has been issued, the Lenders shall be deemed to
have authorized (but may not require) the respective Issuing Bank to permit the renewal of such
Letter of Credit at any time, provided, however, that, in any event, the Issuing Bank shall not
permit any such renewal only if such Issuing Bank has received notice on or before the day that is
five Business Days before the Non-Renewal Notice Date from the Administrative Agent that one or
more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 4.02 is not then satisfied. Notwithstanding
the above, nothing in this Section 3.01(d) shall limit the ability of the respective Issuing Bank
from exercising any of its rights with respect to any Auto-Renewal Letter of Credit after the
termination of this Agreement.

Banks to Issue one or more additional Letters of Credit under this Section 3.01.




          SECTION 3.02 Limitation on the Issuance of Letters of Credit Denominated in Committed

Credit and shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent thereof.




          SECTION 3.04 Reimbursement Obligations. (a) The Borrower shall:





     (i) pay to the respective Issuing Bank an amount equal to, and in reimbursement for,

Bank under such Letter of Credit; and

required to be paid on Base Rate Advances; provided, that, if the Borrower shall not have
reimbursed the respective Issuing Bank within three Business Days of payment by such Issuing
Bank as provided in paragraph (i) above, the Borrower shall thereafter until such amount is
reimbursed in full to such Issuing Bank pay interest, payable on demand, at a fluctuating
rate per annum equal to 2% per annum above the rate per annum required to be paid on Base
Rate Advances immediately prior to the date on which such Issuing Bank makes such payment
under such Letter of Credit.



          (b) All amounts to be reimbursed to an Issuing Bank in accordance with subsection (a) above
may, at the Borrower’s option and subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.01 (inclusive
of minimum borrowing limitations), be paid from the proceeds of Advances.

          (b) In the event that any reimbursement obligation under Section 3.04(a) is not paid within
three Business Days after the due date to the respective Issuing Bank with respect to any Letter of
Credit, such Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent who shall promptly notify
the Lenders of the amount of such reimbursement obligation (on a Dollar Equivalent basis in the
case of Letters of Credit denominated in an Committed Currency) and each Lender shall pay to such
Issuing Bank, in lawful money of the United States and in same day funds, an amount equal to such
Lender’s LC Commitment Percentage then in effect of the amount of such unpaid reimbursement
obligation with such payment to be made on the date of notification to such Lender, if such
notification is made prior to 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on a Business Day and if such
notification is made after 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on a Business Day, such payment to be

Lender’s LC Commitment Percentage thereof.




          (d) Upon the request of any Lender, the Administrative Agent shall furnish, or cause the
respective Issuing Bank to furnish, to such Lender copies of any outstanding Letter of Credit as
may be reasonably requested by such Lender.




          (e) The obligation of each Lender to make payments under subsection (b) above shall be
unconditional and irrevocable and shall remain in effect after the occurrence of the Termination
Date with respect to any Letter of Credit that was Issued by the respective Issuing Bank on behalf
of the Borrower on or before the Termination Date and such payments shall be made under all
circumstances, including, without limitation, any of the circumstances referred to in Section 3.07
other than in connection with circumstances involving any willful misconduct or gross negligence of
such Issuing Bank in Issuing a Letter of Credit or in determining whether documents presented under
a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof.




          (f) If any payment received on account of any reimbursement obligation with respect to a
Letter of Credit and distributed to a Lender as a participant under Section 3.05(c) is thereafter
recovered from the respective Issuing Bank in connection with any bankruptcy or insolvency
proceeding relating to the Borrower, each Lender which received such distribution shall, upon
demand by such Issuing Bank, repay to such Issuing Bank such Lender’s ratable share of the amount
so recovered together with an amount equal to such Lender’s ratable share (according to the
proportion of (i) the amount of such Lender’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so

trustee, custodian or other similar official for it or for substantially all of its property and,
in the case of any such proceeding instituted against it (but not instituted by it), either such
proceeding shall remain undismissed or unstayed for a period of 60 days or any of the actions
sought in such proceeding (including, without limitation, the entry of an order for relief against,

substantial part of its property) shall occur; or the Borrower or any Material Subsidiary shall
take any corporate action to authorize any of the actions set forth above in this subsection (f);

ARTICLE VIII

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT




          SECTION 8.01 Authorization and Action. (a) Each Lender and each Issuing Bank hereby
appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to
exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms
hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. As to any matters not
expressly provided for by this Agreement (including, without limitation, enforcement of this
Agreement or collection of the Advances), the Administrative Agent shall not be required to
exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting
(and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the
Majority Lenders, and such instructions shall be binding upon all Lenders and all holders of Notes;
provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action which
exposes the Administrative Agent to personal liability or which is contrary to this Agreement or
applicable law. The Administrative Agent agrees to give to each Lender prompt notice of each
notice given to it by the Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.




          Each Issuing Bank shall act on behalf of the Lenders with respect to any Letters of Credit
Issued by it and the documents associated therewith and such Issuing Bank shall have all of the
benefits and immunities (i) provided to the Administrative Agent in this Article VIII with respect
to any acts taken or omissions suffered by such Issuing Bank in connection with Letters of Credit
Issued by it or proposed to be Issued by it as fully as if the term “Administrative Agent,” as used
in this Article VIII, included such Issuing Bank with respect to such acts or omissions, and (ii)
as additionally provided in this Agreement with respect to such Issuing Bank.




          (a) The Syndication Agent, the Co-Documentation Agents and the Arrangers shall have no duties
under this Agreement other than those afforded to them in their capacities as Lenders, and each
Lender and each Issuing Bank hereby acknowledges that the Syndication Agent, the Co-Documentation
Agents and the Arrangers have no liability under this Agreement other than those assumed by them in
their capacities as Lenders.




          SECTION 8.02 Administrative Agent’s Reliance, Etc. Neither the Administrative Agent
nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable to any Lender for any
action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in connection with this Agreement,
except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the
generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent: (i) may treat the Lender which made any
Advance (or purchased or funded a participation with respect to a Letter of Credit) as the holder
of the Debt resulting therefrom until the Administrative Agent receives and accepts an Assumption
Agreement entered into by an Assuming Lender as provided in Section 2.19 or 2.20, as the case may
be, or an Assignment and Acceptance entered into by such Lender, as assignor, and an Eligible
Assignee, as assignee, as provided in Section 9.07; (ii) may consult with legal counsel (including
counsel for the Borrower), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and
shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance
with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts; (iii) makes no warranty or representation
to any Lender and shall not be responsible to any Lender for any statements, warranties or
representations (whether written or oral) made in or in connection with this Agreement; (iv) shall
not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement on
the part of the Borrower or to inspect the property (including the books and records) of the
Borrower; (v) shall not be responsible to any Lender for the due execution, legality, validity,
enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any instrument or document
furnished pursuant hereto; and (vi) shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement
by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by
telecopier) believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties.





43









 








          SECTION 8.03 CUSA and Affiliates. With respect to its Commitment and the Advances
made by it and any Note or Notes issued to it, CUSA shall have the same rights and powers under
this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the
Administrative Agent; and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly
indicated, include CUSA in its individual capacity. CUSA and its respective Affiliates may accept
deposits from, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of, accept investment banking
engagements from, and generally engage in any kind of business with, the Borrower, any of its
Subsidiaries and any Person who may do business with or own securities of the Borrower or any such
Subsidiary, all as if CUSA was not the Administrative Agent and without any duty to account
therefor to the Lenders.




          SECTION 8.04 Lender Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that it has,
independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any other
Lender and based on the financial statements referred to in Section 5.01(c) and such other
documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision
to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and
without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any other Lender and based on
such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own
credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement.




          SECTION 8.05 Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent
(to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower), ratably according to the respective principal
amounts of Advances then owing to each of them (or, if no Advances are at the time outstanding or
if any Advances are then owing to Persons which are not Lenders, ratably according to the
respective amounts of their Commitments), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations,
losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind
or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Administrative
Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any action taken or omitted by the
Administrative Agent under this Agreement; provided that no Lender shall be liable for any portion
of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs,
expenses or disbursements resulting from the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful
misconduct. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse the
Administrative Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any out-of-pocket expenses
(including reasonable counsel fees) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the
preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether
through negotiations, legal or bankruptcy proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect
of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, to the extent that the Administrative Agent is
not reimbursed for such expenses by the Borrower.




          (b) Issuing Bank. The Lenders agree to indemnify each Issuing Bank (to the extent not
reimbursed by the Borrower), ratably according to their respective LC Commitment Percentages, from
and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments,
suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on,
incurred by, or asserted against such Issuing Bank in any way relating to or arising out of this
Agreement and the Letters of Credit issued by it or any action taken or omitted by such Issuing
Bank under this Agreement or the Letters of Credit Issued by it; provided, that, no Lender shall be
liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions,
judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from such Issuing Bank’s gross
negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to
reimburse such Issuing Bank promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any out-of-pocket
expenses (including reasonable counsel fees) incurred by such Issuing Bank in connection with the
preparation, execution, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through
negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or
responsibilities under, this Agreement or the Letters of Credit Issued by it, to the extent that






44









 







the Issuing Bank is not reimbursed for such expenses by the Borrower. In the case of any
investigation, litigation or proceeding giving rise to any such liabilities, obligations, losses,
damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs expenses or disbursements, this Section
8.05(b) applies whether any such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by the
Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank any Lender or a third party.




          SECTION 8.06 Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign at
any time by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower and such resignation
shall be effective upon the appointment of a successor Administrative Agent as provided herein.
Upon any such resignation, the Majority Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor
Administrative Agent. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the
Majority Lenders, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the retiring
Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may,
on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent. Any successor Administrative
Agent appointed hereunder shall be a commercial bank organized or licensed under the laws of the
United States or of any State thereof, or an Affiliate of any such commercial bank, having a
combined capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as
Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative
Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, discretion,
privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent
shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement. After any retiring
Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this
Article VIII shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while
it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement.




          SECTION 8.07 Sub-Agent. The Borrower and the Lenders hereby acknowledge that the
Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, delegate any of its obligations hereunder to the
Sub-Agent, provided that it has obtained prior consent to such delegation from the Sub-Agent. The
Borrower and the Lenders further agree that the Sub-Agent shall be entitled to exercise each of the
rights and to enjoy each of the benefits of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement as
related to the performance of its obligations hereunder.




ARTICLE IX

MISCELLANEOUS




          SECTION 9.01 Amendments, Etc. (a) No amendment or waiver of any provision of this

          SECTION 9.03 No Waiver; Remedies. No failure on the part of any Lender, any Issuing
Bank or the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall
operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude
any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies herein
provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.




          SECTION 9.04 Costs and Expenses. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay, within five
Business Days of demand, all actual and reasonable costs and expenses, if any (including, without
limitation, actual and reasonable counsel fees and expenses), of the Administrative Agent, each
Issuing Bank and each Lender in connection with the enforcement (whether through legal proceedings
or otherwise) of this Agreement, the Letters of Credit and the other instruments and documents to
be delivered hereunder, including, without limitation, reasonable counsel fees and expenses in
connection with the enforcement of rights under this Section 9.04(a).




          (b) If any payment of principal of, or Conversion of, any Eurocurrency Rate Advance is made

Conversion pursuant to Section 2.08(f) or 2.10 or acceleration of the maturity of the Advances
pursuant to Section 7.01 or for any other reason (other than by reason of a payment pursuant to
Section 2.12), the Borrower shall, within five Business Days of demand by any Lender (with a copy
of such demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to such Lender any amounts required to compensate
such Lender for any additional losses, costs or expenses which it may reasonably incur as a result
of such payment or Conversion, including, without limitation, any loss, cost or expense incurred by
reason of the liquidation or redeployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to
fund or maintain such Advance. All obligations of the Borrower under this Section 9.04 shall survive the making and
repayment of the Advances and the termination of this Agreement.




          SECTION 9.05 Right of Set-off. Upon (i) the occurrence and during the continuance of
any Event of Default and (ii) the making of the request or the granting of the consent specified by
Section 7.01 to authorize the Administrative Agent to declare the Advances due and payable pursuant
to the provisions of Section 7.01, or to demand payment of (or cash collateralization of) all then
outstanding Letter of Credit Liability, each Lender (and, in the case of CUSA, Citibank) is hereby
authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off
and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, but
excluding trust accounts) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender
(and, in the case of CUSA, Citibank) to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against
any and all of the obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement
(including, to the fullest extent permitted by law, obligations indirectly owed to such Lender by
virtue of its purchase of a participation or sub-participation of the Letter of Credit Liability
pursuant to Section 3.05), whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this
Agreement. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower after any such setoff and
application made by such Lender (and, in the case of CUSA, Citibank); provided, that, the failure
to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of
each Lender (and, in the case of CUSA, Citibank) under this Section are in addition to other rights
and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have.




          SECTION 9.06 Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective (other than
Section 2.01, which shall only become effective upon satisfaction of the conditions precedent set
forth in Section 4.01) when it shall have been executed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent
and each Co-Documentation Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by each
Initial Lender that such Initial Lender has executed it and, thereafter, shall be binding upon and
inure to the benefit of the Borrower, each Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent, each
Co-Documentation Agent and each Lender and their respective successors and permitted assigns,
except that the Borrower shall not






48









 








have the right to assign its rights hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of the Lenders.




          SECTION 9.07 Assignments and Participations. (a) Each Lender may and, if requested
by the Borrower upon notice by the Borrower delivered to such Lender and the Administrative Agent
pursuant to clause (ii) of Section 2.16, will, assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a
portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a
portion of its Commitment and the Advances owing to it and any Note or Notes held by it, its LC
Commitment and participations in Letter of Credit Liability); provided, however, that (i) each such
assignment shall be of a constant, and not a varying, percentage of all rights and obligations
under this Agreement, (ii) the amount (without duplication) of the Commitment, pro-rata share of
outstanding Advances and pro-rata share of participations in Letter of Credit Liability of the
assigning Lender being assigned pursuant to each such assignment (determined as of the date of the
Assignment and Acceptance) shall not be less than $12,500,000 (unless the assigning Lender shall
assign its entire interest hereunder or such lesser amount is previously agreed among such
assigning Lender, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower) or an integral multiple of $500,000 in
excess thereof, (iii) the sum of (A) the amount (without duplication) of the Commitment, pro-rata
share of outstanding Advances and pro-rata share of participations in Letter of Credit Liability of
the assigning Lender being assigned pursuant to each such assignment and (B) the amount of the
commitment and pro-rata share of outstanding advances of the assigning Lender being contemporaneously assigned under the
Four-Year Credit Agreement by the Person that is such assigning Lender (in both cases determined as
of the date of the Assignment and Acceptance or similar agreement with respect to such assignments)
shall not be less than $25,000,000 in the aggregate (unless the assigning Lender shall assign its
entire interest hereunder and thereunder or such lesser amount is previously agreed among such
assigning Lender, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower) or an integral multiple of $1,000,000
in excess thereof, provided, however, that if the aggregate amount of the Commitment of such
assigning Lender hereunder and its commitment under the Four-Year Credit Agreement is less than
$25,000,000 on the date of such proposed assignments, such assigning Lender may assign all, but not
less than all, of its remaining rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Four-Year
Credit Agreement (unless an assignment of a portion of such assigning Lender’s obligations
hereunder and thereunder is otherwise previously agreed among such assigning Lender, the
Administrative Agent and the Borrower), (iv) each such assignment shall be to an Eligible Assignee,
and (v) the parties to each such assignment (other than the Borrower) shall execute and deliver to
the Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register, an Assignment and
Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500. Upon such execution,
delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment
and Acceptance, (x) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights
and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, have
the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder and (y) the Lender assignor thereunder shall, to
the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such
Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights (other than any rights such Lender assignor may
have under Sections 2.11, 2.14 and 9.08) and be released from its obligations under this Agreement
(and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an
assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a
party hereto).




          (b) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the Lender assignor thereunder
and the assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as
follows: (i) other than as provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, such assigning Lender makes
no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements,
warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or the execution,
legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any
instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (ii) such assigning Lender makes no
representation or warranty and assumes no








49









 







responsibility with respect to the financial condition of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or the performance or observance by the Borrower of any of
its obligations under this Agreement or any instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (iii)
such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of the
financial statements referred to in Section 5.01(c) and such other documents and information as it
has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment
and Acceptance; (iv) such assignee will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative
Agent, any Issuing Bank, such assigning Lender or any other Lender and based on such documents and
information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in
taking or not taking action under this Agreement; (v) such assignee confirms that it is an Eligible
Assignee; (vi) such assignee appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent or the respective
Issuing Bank to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this
Agreement as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof, together with such
powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vii) such assignee agrees that it will perform in
accordance with their terms all of the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are
required to be performed by it as a Lender.




          (c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain at its address referred to in Section 9.02 a copy
of each Assignment and Acceptance and each Assumption Agreement delivered to and accepted by it and
a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitment and the LC Commitment of, and principal amount of the Advances owing to, each Lender from time
to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all
purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may
treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of
this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Lender at
any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.




          (d) Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an
assignee representing that it is an Eligible Assignee and, if applicable, the Borrower, together
with any Note subject to such assignment, the Administrative Agent shall, if such Assignment and
Acceptance has been completed and is in substantially the form of Exhibit B hereto, (i) accept such
Assignment and Acceptance, (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register and (iii)
give prompt notice thereof to the Borrower and each Issuing Bank.




          (e) Each Lender may sell participations to one or more banks or other entities in or to all or
a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or
a portion of its Commitment, LC Commitment and the Advances owing to it and any Note issued to it
hereunder); provided, however, that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement (including,
without limitation, its Commitment and LC Commitment hereunder) shall remain unchanged, (ii) such
Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such
obligations, (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to
deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations
under this Agreement, and (iv) such Lender shall not agree in any participation agreement with any
participant or proposed participant to obtain the consent of such participant before agreeing to
the amendment, modification or waiver of any of the terms of this Agreement or any Note, before
consenting to any action or failure to act by the Borrower or any other party hereunder or under
any Note, or before exercising any rights it may have in respect thereof, unless such amendment,
modification, waiver, consent or exercise would (A) increase the amount of such participant’s
portion of such Lender’s Commitment, (B) reduce the principal amount of or rate of interest on the
Advances, any amount due hereunder with respect to the Letters of Credit or any fee or other
amounts payable hereunder to which such participant would be entitled to receive a share under such
participation agreement, or (C) postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of or interest
on the Advances, for amounts due with respect to Letters of Credit or any fee or






50









 







other amounts payable hereunder to which such participant would be entitled to receive a share under such
participation agreement.




          (f) Any Lender may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment
or participation pursuant to this Section 9.07, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed
assignee or participant any information relating to the Borrower furnished to such Lender by or on
behalf of the Borrower in writing and directly related to the transactions contemplated hereunder;
provided that, prior to any such disclosure, the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or
participant shall agree to preserve the confidentiality of any confidential information relating to
the Borrower received by it from such Lender in accordance with the terms of Section 9.09.




          (g) No participation or assignment hereunder shall be made in violation of the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended from time to time, or any applicable state securities laws, and each Lender
hereby represents that it will make any Advance for its own account in the ordinary course of its
business and not with a view to the public distribution or sale thereof.




          (h) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, any Lender may at any time
assign or create a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement
(including, without limitation, the Advances owing to it and any Note issued to it hereunder) in
favor of any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System (or any successor regulation thereto) and the applicable operating circular
of such Federal Reserve Bank.




     SECTION 9.08 Indemnification. The Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the
Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank, each Co-Documentation Agent and each Lender and each of
their Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors (each an
"Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses
(including, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) that may be incurred by or
asserted against any Indemnified Party, in each case arising out of or in connection with or by
reason of, or in connection with the preparation for a defense of, any investigation, litigation or
proceeding (whether or not an Indemnified Party is a party thereto) arising out of, related to or
in connection with the Commitments hereunder or the Advances or Letter of Credit Issuances made
pursuant hereto or any transactions done in connection herewith, including, without limitation, any
transaction in which any proceeds of the Advances or any Letter of Credit Issuance are, or are
proposed, to be applied, or any action or proceeding relating to a court order, injunction or other
process or decree restraining or seeking to restrain any Issuing Bank from paying any amount under
any Letter of Credit (collectively, the “Indemnified Matters”); provided that the Borrower shall
have no obligation to any Indemnified Party under this Section 9.08 with respect to (i) matters for
which such Indemnified Party has been reimbursed by or on behalf of the Borrower pursuant to any
other provision of this Agreement, but only to the extent of such reimbursement, or (ii)
Indemnified Matters found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the willful
misconduct or gross negligence of such Indemnified Party. If any action is brought against any
Indemnified Party, such Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Borrower in writing of the
institution of such action and the Borrower shall thereupon have the right, at its option, to elect
to assume the defense of such action; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not, in assuming
the defense of any Indemnified Party in any Indemnified Matter, agree to any dismissal or
settlement of such Indemnified Matter without the prior written consent of such Indemnified Party,
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, if such dismissal or settlement (A) would require
any admission or acknowledgment of culpability or wrongdoing by such Indemnified Party or (B) would
provide for any nonmonetary relief to any Person to be performed by such Indemnified Party. If the
Borrower so elects, it shall promptly assume the defense of such action, including the employment
of counsel (reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party) and payment of expenses. Such
Indemnified Party shall have the



51









 




right to employ its or their own counsel in any such case, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party unless (1) the
employment of such counsel shall have been authorized in writing by the Borrower in connection with
the defense of such action or (2) the Borrower shall not have properly employed counsel reasonably
satisfactory to such Indemnified Party to have charge of the defense of such action, in which case
such fees and expenses shall be paid by the Borrower. If an Indemnified Party shall have
reasonably concluded (based upon the advice of counsel) that the representation by one counsel of
such Indemnified Party and the Borrower creates a conflict of interest for such counsel, the
reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel shall be borne by the Borrower and the Borrower shall
not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of such Indemnified Party (but
shall retain the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the Borrower). Anything
in this Section 9.08 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower shall not be liable for the fees
and expenses of more than one counsel for any Indemnified Party in any jurisdiction as to any
Indemnified Matter or for any settlement of any Indemnified Matter effected without its written
consent. All obligations of the Borrower under this Section 9.08 shall survive the making and
repayment of the Advances and the termination of this Agreement.




          SECTION 9.09 Confidentiality. None of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks or Lenders may disclose to any Person any
confidential, proprietary or non-public information of the Borrower furnished to the Administrative
Agent, the Issuing Banks or the Lenders by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (such
information being referred to collectively herein as the “Borrower Information”), except that each
of the Administrative Agent, each of the Issuing Banks and each of the Lenders may disclose
Borrower Information (i) to its and its Affiliates’ employees, officers, directors, agents,
auditors and advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be
informed of the confidential nature of such Borrower Information and instructed to keep such
Borrower Information confidential on substantially the same terms as provided herein), (ii) to the
extent requested by any regulatory authority, (iii) to the extent required by applicable laws or
regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (iv) to any other party to this Agreement,
(v) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding
relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder, (vi) subject to an agreement
containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 9.09 to any assignee of or
participant in, or any prospective assignee of or participant in, any of its rights or obligations
under this Agreement, (vii) to the extent such Borrower Information (A) is or becomes generally
available to the public on a non-confidential basis other than as a result of a breach of this
Section 9.09 by the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender, or (B) is or becomes
available to the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender on a non-confidential basis
from a source other than the Borrower, provided such source is not bound by a confidentiality
agreement or other legal or fiduciary obligations of secrecy with the Borrower with respect to the
Borrower Information, and (viii) with the consent of the Borrower.




          SECTION 9.10 Patriot Act. Each Lender and the Administrative Agent hereby notifies
the Borrower that, pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain,
verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and
address of the Borrower and other information that will allow it to identify the Borrower in
accordance with the Patriot Act. The Borrower shall promptly provide such information upon request
by any Lender or Administrative Agent.




          SECTION 9.11 Judgment. (a) If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it
is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in Dollars into another currency, the parties hereto
agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall
be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could
purchase Dollars with such other currency at Citibank’s principal office in London at 11:00 A.M.
(London time) on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given.





52









 








          (b) If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum
due hereunder in a Committed Currency into Dollars, the parties agree to the fullest extent that
they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance
with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase such Committed Currency with
Dollars at Citibank’s principal office in London at 11:00 A.M. (London time) on the Business Day
preceding that on which final judgment is given.




          (c) The obligation of the Borrower in respect of any sum due from it in any currency (the
"Primary Currency”) to any Lender, any Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent hereunder shall,
notwithstanding any judgment in any other currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the
Business Day following receipt by such Lender, Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent (as the
case may be), of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency, such Lender, Issuing Bank or
the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the
applicable Primary Currency with such other currency; if the amount of the applicable Primary
Currency so purchased is less than such sum due to such Lender, Issuing Bank or the Administrative
Agent (as the case may be) in the applicable Primary Currency, the Borrower agrees, as a separate
obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Lender, any Issuing Bank or the
Administrative Agent (as the case may be) against such loss, and if the amount of the applicable
Primary Currency so purchased exceeds such sum due to any Lender, Issuing Bank or the
Administrative Agent (as the case may be) in the applicable Primary Currency, such Lender, Issuing
Bank or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) agrees to remit to the Borrower such excess.




          SECTION 9.12 Consent to Jurisdiction and Service of Process. All judicial proceedings
brought against the Borrower with respect to this Agreement or any instrument or other documents
delivered hereunder may be brought in any state or federal court in the Borough of Manhattan in the
State of New York, and by execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Borrower accepts, for
itself and in connection with its properties, generally and unconditionally, the nonexclusive
jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts, and irrevocably agrees to be bound by any final judgment
rendered thereby in connection with this Agreement or any instrument or other document delivered
hereunder from which no appeal has been taken or is available. The Borrower agrees to receive
service of process in any such proceeding in any such court at its office at 77 West
66th Street, 15th Floor, New York, New York 10023, Attention: Kenneth E.
Newman (or at such other address in the Borough of Manhattan in the State of New York as the
Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent from time to time) and, if the Borrower ever ceases
to maintain such office in the Borough of Manhattan, irrevocably designates and appoints CT
Corporation System, 1633 Broadway, New York, New York 10019, or any other address in the State of
New York communicated by CT Corporation System to the Administrative Agent, as its agent to receive
on its behalf service of all process in any such proceeding in any such court, such service being
hereby acknowledged by the Borrower to be effective and binding service in every respect.




          SECTION 9.13 Substitution of Currency. If a change in any Committed Currency occurs
pursuant to any applicable law, rule or regulation of any governmental, monetary or multi-national
authority, this Agreement (including, without limitation, the definition of Eurocurrency Rate) will
be amended to the extent determined by the Administrative Agent (acting reasonably, in consultation
with the Borrower and in accordance with the terms of Section 9.01 hereof) to be necessary to
reflect the change in currency and to put the Lenders and the Borrower in the same position, so far
as possible, that they would have been in if no change in such Committed Currency had occurred.




          SECTION 9.14 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in
accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.





53









 








          SECTION 9.15 Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number
of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so
executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and
the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by
telecopier shall be effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement. A
full set of executed counterparts of this Agreement shall be lodged with each of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower. Any Notes issued hereunder shall be
delivered in original hard copy to the Lender requesting such Note.




          SECTION 9.16 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of
such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any
such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render
unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be executed by their
respective representatives thereunto duly authorized, as of the date first above written.
