    TWO YEAR
CREDIT AGREEMENT

     

    Dated as
of February 24, 2010

     

    DENTSPLY
INTERNATIONAL INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), the banks,
financial institutions and other institutional lenders (the “Initial Lenders”) and
PNC BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (“PNC”), as agent (the
“Agent”) for
the Lenders (as hereinafter defined), agree as follows:

     

    ARTICLE
I

     

    DEFINITIONS AND ACCOUNTING
TERMS

     

    SECTION 1.01  Certain Defined
Terms. As used
in this Agreement, the following terms shall have the following meanings (such
meanings to be equally applicable to both the singular and plural forms of the
terms defined):

     

    “Affiliate” means, as
to any Person, any other Person that, directly or indirectly, controls, is
controlled by or is under common control with such Person or is a director or
officer of such Person.  For purposes of this definition, the term
“control” (including the terms “controlling”, “controlled by” and “under common
control with”) of a Person means the possession, direct or indirect, of the
power to vote 5% or more of the Voting Stock of such Person or to direct or
cause the direction of the management and policies of such Person, whether
through the ownership of Voting Stock, by contract or otherwise.

     

    “Agent’s Account”
means such account of the Agent as is designated in writing from time to time by
the Agent to the Company and the Lenders for such purpose.

Code, or any similar foreign, federal or state law for the relief of

    “Base Rate” means for
any day, a fluctuating per annum rate of interest equal to the highest of (a)
the Prime Rate in effect on such day, (b) the Federal Funds Open Rate in effect
on such day plus 1⁄2 of 1% and (c) the Daily LIBOR Rate in effect on such day plus
one hundred basis points (1.00%).  If for any reason the Agent shall have
determined (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that
it is unable to ascertain the Federal Funds Open Rate for any reason, including
the inability or failure of the Agent to obtain sufficient quotations in
accordance with the definition of such term, the Base Rate shall be determined
without regard to clause (b) of the first sentence of this definition until the
circumstances giving rise to such inability no longer exist.  Any change in
the Base Rate due to a change in the Prime Rate, the Federal Funds Open Rate or
the Daily LIBOR Rate shall be effective on the effective date of such change in
the Prime Rate, the Federal Funds Open Rate or the Daily LIBOR
Rate,  respectively.

Reserve Percentage.  The Published Rate shall be adjusted as of each
Business Day based on changes in the Published Rate or the Eurocurrency Rate
Reserve Percentage without notice to the Company, and shall be applicable from
the effective date of any such change.

     

    “Debt” of any Person
means, without duplication, (a) all indebtedness of such Person for

primarily for the purpose of enabling the debtor to make payment of such
Guaranteed Debt or to assure the holder of such Guaranteed Debt against loss,

(including any agreement to pay for property or services irrespective of whether
such property is received or such services are rendered) or (4) otherwise
to assure a creditor against loss, and (i) all Debt referred to in
clauses (a) through (h) above (including Guaranteed Debt) secured by

Debt.

ratable portion of the Term Loans, the Agent may assume that such Lender has
made such portion available to the Agent on the Term Loan Funding Date in
accordance with subsection (a) of this Section 2.02, and the Agent
may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Company on such
date a corresponding amount.  If and to the extent that such Lender shall
not have so made such ratable portion available to the Agent, such Lender and

corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date
such amount is made available to the Company until the date such amount is

Lender shall repay to the Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so repaid
shall constitute such Lender’s Term Loans for purposes of this
Agreement.

     

    (e)           The
failure of any Lender to make the Term Loans to be made by it on the Term Loan
Funding Date shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any,
hereunder to make its Term Loans on the Term Loan Funding Date, but no Lender
shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Term Loans
to be made by such other Lender on the Term Loan Funding Date.

with any 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

such demand to the Agent), pay to the Agent for the account of such Lender
additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender for such increased cost;
provided, however, that before
making any such demand, each Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent
with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a
different Lending Office if the making of such designation would avoid the need
for, or reduce the amount of, such increased cost and would not, in the
reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such
Lender.  A certificate as to the amount of such increased cost, submitted
to the Company and the Agent by such Lender, shall be conclusive and binding for
all purposes, absent manifest error.

guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental 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 Lender or any corporation
controlling such Lender and that the amount of such capital is increased by or
based upon the existence of the Term Loans, then, upon demand by such Lender
(with a copy of such demand to the Agent), the Company shall pay to the Agent
for the account of such Lender, from time to time as specified by such Lender,
additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender or such corporation in
the light of such circumstances, to the extent that such Lender reasonably
determines such increase in capital to be allocable to the existence of such
Lender’s Term Loans.  A certificate as to such amounts submitted to the
Company and the Agent by such Lender shall be conclusive and binding for all
purposes, absent manifest error.

    SECTION
2.12  Illegality. 
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Lender shall
notify the Agent that the introduction of or any change in or in the
interpretation of any law or regulation makes it unlawful, or any central bank
or other governmental authority asserts that it is unlawful, for any Lender or
its Lending Office to perform its obligations hereunder to make or maintain the
Term Loans, the Company shall prepay, without penalty (other than, if not paid
on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, as provided in Section
9.04(c)), the Term Loans in full with accrued interest on the last day of the
Interest Period then in effect  or within such earlier period as
required by law.

     

    SECTION
2.13  Payments and
Computations. 
(a)  The Company shall make each payment hereunder with respect to
principal of, interest on, and other amounts relating to, the Term Loans,
irrespective of any right of counterclaim or set-off, not later than
11:00 A.M. Philadelphia, Pennsylvania time (at the Payment Office) on the
day when due in Swiss Francs to the Agent, by deposit of such funds to the
Agent’s Account in same day funds.  The Agent will promptly thereafter
cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal or
interest, fees or commissions ratably (other than amounts payable pursuant to
Sections 2.11, 2.14 or 9.04(c)) to the Lenders for the account of their
respective Lending Offices, and like funds relating to the payment of any other
amount payable to any Lender to such Lender for the account of its Lending
Office, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement.  Upon its acceptance of an Assignment and Acceptance and
recording of the information contained therein in the Register pursuant to
Section 9.07(c), from and after the effective date specified in such
Assignment and Acceptance, the Agent shall make all payments hereunder and under
the Notes 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)           The
Company hereby authorizes each Lender, if and to the extent payment owed to such
Lender is not made when due hereunder or under the Note held by such Lender, to
charge from time to time against any or all of the Company’s accounts with such
Lender any amount so due.

     

    (c)           All
computations of interest shall be made by the Agent on the basis of a year of
360 days, 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 is
payable.  Each determination by the Agent of an interest rate hereunder
shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest
error.

     

    (d)           Whenever
any payment hereunder or under the Notes 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; provided, however, that, if
such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of the Term Loans
to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on
the next preceding Business Day.

    (e)           Unless
the Agent shall have received notice from the Company prior to the date on which
any payment is due to the Lenders hereunder that the Company will not make such
payment in full, the Agent may assume that the Company has made such payment in
full to the Agent on such date and the Agent 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 the Company
shall not have so made such payment in full to the Agent, each Lender shall
repay to the Agent 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
Agent, at the cost of funds incurred by the Agent in respect of such
amount.

     

    (f)           To
the extent that the Agent receives funds for application to the amounts owing by
the Company under or in respect of this Agreement or any Note in currencies
other than the currency or currencies required to enable the Agent to distribute
funds to the Lenders in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.13, the
Agent shall be entitled to convert or exchange such funds into Dollars or into
Swiss Francs or from Dollars to Swiss Francs or from Swiss Francs to Dollars, as
the case may be, to the extent necessary to enable the Agent to distribute such
funds in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.13; provided that the
Company and each of the Lenders hereby agree that the Agent shall not be liable
or responsible for any loss, cost or expense suffered by the Company or such
Lender as a result of any conversion or exchange of currencies affected pursuant
to this Section 2.13(f) or as a result of the failure of the Agent to effect any
such conversion or exchange; and provided further that the Company agrees to
indemnify the Agent and each Lender, and hold the Agent and each Lender
harmless, for any and all losses, costs and expenses incurred by the Agent or
any Lender for any conversion or exchange of currencies (or the failure to
convert or exchange any currencies) in accordance with this Section
2.13(f).

     

    SECTION
2.14  Taxes. 
(a)  Any and all payments by the Company to or for the account of any
Lender or the Agent hereunder or under the Notes or any other documents to be
delivered hereunder shall be made, in accordance with Section 2.13 or the
applicable provisions of such other documents, 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 Agent, taxes imposed on its overall net income, and
franchise taxes imposed on it in lieu of net income taxes, by the jurisdiction
under the laws of which such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) is
organized or any political subdivision thereof and, in the case of each Lender,
taxes imposed on its overall net income, and franchise taxes imposed on it in
lieu of net income taxes, by the jurisdiction of such Lender’s Lending Office or
any political subdivision thereof (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts,
deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities in respect of payments
hereunder or under the Notes being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”).  If the
Company shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any
sum payable hereunder or under any Note or any other documents to be delivered
hereunder to any Lender or the Agent, (i) the sum payable shall be
increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions
(including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this
Section 2.14) such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) receives an
amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made,
(ii) the Company shall make such deductions and (iii) the Company
shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other
authority in accordance with applicable law.


    
      
         


      

      
        14

        
          

        

      

      
         


      

    


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

     

    (c)           The
Company shall indemnify each Lender and the Agent for and hold it harmless
against the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including, without limitation,
taxes of any kind imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable
under this Section 2.14) imposed on or paid by such Lender or the Agent (as
the case may be) and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses)
arising therefrom or with respect thereto.  This indemnification shall be
made within 30 days from the date such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be)
makes written demand therefor.

     

    (d)           Within
30 days after the date of any payment of Taxes by or on behalf of the Company,
the Company shall furnish to the Agent, at its address referred to in
Section 9.02, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing such
payment to the extent such a receipt is issued therefor, or other written proof
of payment thereof that is reasonably satisfactory to the Agent.  In the
case of any payment hereunder or under the Notes or any other documents to be
delivered hereunder by or on behalf of the Company through an account or branch
outside the United States or by or on behalf of the Company by a payor that is
not a United States person, if the Company determines that no Taxes are payable
in respect thereof, the Company shall furnish, or shall cause such payor to
furnish, to the Agent, at such address, an opinion of counsel acceptable to the
Agent stating that such payment is exempt from Taxes.  For purposes of this
subsection (d) and subsection (e), the terms “United States” and
“United States
person” shall have the meanings specified in Section 7701 of the
Internal Revenue Code.

     

    (e)           Each
Lender organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States, on
or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement in the case
of each Initial Lender and on the date of the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant
to which it becomes a Lender in the case of each other Lender, and from time to
time thereafter as reasonably requested in writing by the Company (but only so
long as such Lender remains lawfully able to do so), shall provide each of the
Agent and the Company with two original Internal Revenue Service
Forms W-8BEN or W-8ECI, as appropriate, or any successor or other form
prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, certifying that such Lender is
exempt from or entitled to a reduced rate of United States withholding tax on
payments pursuant to this Agreement or the Notes.  If the form provided by
a Lender at the time such Lender first becomes a party to this Agreement
indicates a United States interest withholding tax rate in excess of zero,
withholding tax at such rate shall be considered excluded from Taxes unless and
until such Lender provides the appropriate forms certifying that a lesser rate
applies, whereupon withholding tax at such lesser rate only shall be considered
excluded from Taxes for periods governed by such form; provided, however, that, if at
the date of the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which a Lender assignee
becomes a party to this Agreement, the Lender assignor was entitled to payments
under subsection (a) in respect of United States withholding tax with
respect to interest paid at such date, then, to such extent, the term Taxes
shall include (in addition to withholding taxes that may be imposed in the
future or other amounts otherwise includable in Taxes) United States withholding
tax, if any, applicable with respect to the Lender assignee on such date. 
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 Internal Revenue Service
Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI, that the Lender reasonably considers to be
confidential, the Lender shall give notice thereof to the Company and shall not
be obligated to include in such form or document such confidential
information.


    
      
         


      

      
        15

        
          

        

      

      
         


      

    


    (f)
           For any period
with respect to which a Lender has failed to provide the Company with the
appropriate form, certificate or other document described in
Section 2.14(e) (other than if such failure
is due to a change in law, or in the interpretation or application thereof,
occurring subsequent to the date on which a form, certificate or other document
originally was required to be provided, or if such form, certificate or other
document otherwise is not required under subsection (e) above), such Lender
shall not be entitled to indemnification under Section 2.14(a) or (c) with
respect to Taxes imposed by the United States by reason of such failure; provided, however, that should
a Lender become subject to Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form,
certificate or other document required hereunder, the Company shall take such
steps as the Lender shall reasonably request to assist the Lender to recover
such Taxes.

     

    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 the Term Loans
owing to it (other than pursuant to Sections 2.11, 2.14 or 9.04(c)) in
excess of its Ratable Share of payments on account of the Term Loans obtained by
all the Lenders, such Lender shall forthwith purchase from the other Lenders
such participations in the Term Loans owing to them 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 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 Company 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 Company
in the amount of such participation.

     

    SECTION
2.16  Evidence of
Debt. 
(a)  Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice
an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Company to such Lender
resulting from the Term Loans 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 in respect of the Term Loans.  The Company agrees that
upon notice by any Lender to the Company (with a copy of such notice to the
Agent) to the effect that a Note is required or appropriate in order for such
Lender to evidence (whether for purposes of pledge, enforcement or otherwise)
the Term Loans owing to such Lender, the Company shall promptly execute and
deliver to such Lender a Note in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto,
payable to the order of such Lender in a principal amount equal to the Term
Loans of such Lender.

    (b)           The
Register maintained by the Agent pursuant to Section 9.07(d) 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 the Term Loans
made hereunder, and the Interest Period applicable thereto which Interest Period
shall, except as otherwise specifically provided in Section 2.08(c) in the case
of an Event of Default, be three (3) months, (ii) the terms of 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
Company to each Lender hereunder and (iv) the amount of any sum received by the
Agent from the Company hereunder and each Lender’s share thereof.

     

    (c)           Entries
made in good faith by the 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 Company 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 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 Company under this
Agreement.

     

    SECTION
2.17  Use of
Proceeds. 
The proceeds of the Term Loans shall be used by the Company solely to repay an
equal amount of loans in Swiss Francs made to the Company or a Subsidiary
thereof by PNC and certain other lenders under that certain Five Year Credit
Agreement, dated as of May 9, 2005, among the Company, the lenders party hereto
and Citibank, N.A., as agent.

    COVENANTS OF THE
COMPANY

     

    SECTION
5.01  Affirmative
Covenants. 
So long as any Term Loan shall remain unpaid or any Lender shall have any Term
Loan Commitment hereunder, the Company will:

     

    (a)           Compliance with Laws,
Etc.  Comply, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to comply, in all
material respects, with all applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders, such
compliance to include, without limitation, compliance with ERISA, Environmental
Laws and the Patriot Act.

     

    (b)           Payment of Taxes,
Etc.  Pay and discharge, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to pay
and discharge, before the same shall become delinquent, (i) all taxes,
assessments and governmental charges or levies imposed upon it or upon its
property and (ii) except to the extent such breach would not cause an Event
of Default under Section 6.01(d) hereof or have a Material Adverse Effect, all
other lawful claims; provided, however, that neither
the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to pay or discharge
any such tax, assessment, charge or claim that is being contested in good faith
and by proper proceedings and as to which appropriate reserves are being
maintained, unless and until any Lien resulting therefrom attaches to its
property and becomes enforceable against its other creditors.

     

    (c)           Maintenance of
Insurance.  Maintain, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to
maintain, insurance with responsible and reputable insurance companies or
associations in such amounts and covering such risks as is usually carried by
companies engaged in similar businesses and owning similar properties in the
same general areas in which the Company or such Subsidiary operates; provided, however, that the

permitted under Section 5.02(b) and provided further that neither
the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to maintain corporate
existence of any Subsidiary or preserve any right or franchise if the Board of
Directors of the Company or such Subsidiary shall determine that the maintenance

Affiliates.  Conduct, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to conduct,
all transactions otherwise permitted under this Agreement with any of their

Terms.  Notify the Agent in writing prior to entering into any new
credit arrangement or any amendment or modification of any existing credit
arrangement, in each case providing debt financing of $10,000,000 (or the
Equivalent thereof if the financing is in a currency other than Dollars) or
more, pursuant to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries agree to
affirmative or negative covenants (including without limitation financial
covenants and limitations on Debt and Liens) which in any such case are less
favorable in any material respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries than
those contained in this Agreement (any such less favorable provisions, the
“New
Provisions”).  Effective upon the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries’ entry into any such agreement, amendment or modification, this
Agreement, at the option of the Required Lenders in their sole discretion, shall
be and shall be deemed to be immediately amended to add the New Provisions;
provided, however, that the foregoing shall not be applicable to or be deemed to
affect any provision of this Agreement if any such agreement, amendment or
modification is more favorable to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. 
The Company hereby agrees promptly to execute and deliver any and all such
amendments, documents and instruments and to take all such further actions as
the Agent may, in its sole discretion, deem necessary or appropriate to
effectuate the provisions of this Section 5.01(j).

Agreement (including, without limitation, enforcement or collection of the
Notes), the 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 Required Lenders, and such instructions shall be binding upon all Lenders
and all holders of Notes; provided, however, that the
Agent shall not be required to take any action that exposes the Agent to
personal liability or that is contrary to this Agreement or applicable
law.  The Agent agrees to give to each Lender prompt notice of each
notice given to it by the Company pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement.

    


    SECTION

their own gross negligence or willful misconduct.  Without limitation
of the generality of the foregoing, the Agent:  (i) may treat

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 Company), 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

conditions of this Agreement on the part of the Company or the existence at any
time of any Default or to inspect the property (including the books and records)
of the Company; (v) shall not be responsible to any Lender for the due
execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value
of, or the perfection or priority of any lien or security interest created or
purported to be created under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other
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
or telegram) believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party
or parties.

    SECTION
8.03  PNC
and Affiliates.  With respect to its Term Loan Commitment, the
Term Loans made by it and the Note issued to it, PNC 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 Agent; and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless
otherwise expressly indicated, include PNC in its individual
capacity.  PNC and its 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 Company, any of its
Subsidiaries and any Person who may do business with or own securities of the
Company or any such Subsidiary, all as if PNC were not the Agent and without any
duty to account therefor to the Lenders.  The Agent shall have no duty
to disclose any information obtained or received by it or any of its Affiliates
relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to the extent such
information was obtained or received in any capacity other than as
Agent.

on the financial statements referred to in Section 4.01 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 Agent 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.  (a)  Each
Lender severally agrees to indemnify the Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by
the Company) from and against such Lender’s Ratable Share of any and all
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits,
costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be
imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Agent in its capacity as such,
in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any action taken or
omitted by the Agent under this Agreement (collectively, the “Indemnified Costs”),
provided that
no Lender shall be liable for any portion of the Indemnified Costs resulting
from the Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.  Without
limitation of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse the Agent promptly
upon demand for its ratable share of any out-of-pocket expenses (including
reasonable counsel fees) incurred by the Agent in connection with the
preparation, execution, delivery, 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,
to the extent that the Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by the
Company.  In the case of any investigation, litigation or proceeding
giving rise to any Indemnified Costs, this Section 8.05 applies whether any

    (c)           The
failure of any Lender to reimburse the Agent promptly upon demand for its
ratable share of any amount required to be paid by the Lenders to the Agent as
provided herein shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder
to reimburse the Agent for its ratable share of such amount, but no Lender shall
be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to reimburse the Agent for
such other Lender’s ratable share of such amount.  Without prejudice
to the survival of any other agreement of any Lender hereunder, the agreement
and obligations of each Lender contained in this Section 8.05 shall survive the
payment in full of principal, interest and all other amounts payable hereunder
and under the Notes.  The Agent agrees to return to the Lenders their
respective ratable shares of any amounts paid under this Section 8.05 that are
subsequently reimbursed by the Company.

     

    SECTION
8.06  Successor
Agent.  The
Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and
the Company and may be removed at any time with or without cause by the Required
Lenders.  Upon any such resignation or removal, the Required Lenders
shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent.  If no successor
Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders, and shall have
accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the retiring Agent’s giving of
notice of resignation or the Required Lenders’ removal of the retiring Agent,
then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor
Agent, which shall be a commercial bank organized under the laws of the United
States of America or of any State thereof and having a combined capital and
surplus of at least $500,000,000.  Upon the acceptance of any
appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall
thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, discretion,
privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be
discharged from its duties and obligations under this
Agreement.  After any retiring Agent’s resignation or removal
hereunder as 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 Agent
under this Agreement.

amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Agent in
addition to the Lenders required above to take such action, affect the rights or
duties of the Agent under this Agreement or any Note.

Waiver; Remedies.  No failure on the part of any Lender or the
Agent to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder or under any

    (b)           The
Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Agent and each Lender and each
of their Affiliates and their 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)
incurred by or asserted or awarded against any Indemnified Party, in each case
arising out of or in connection with or by reason of (including, without
limitation, in connection with any investigation, litigation or proceeding or
preparation of a defense in connection therewith) (i) the Notes, this
Agreement, any of the transactions contemplated herein or the actual or proposed
use of the proceeds of the Term Loans, (ii) the actual or alleged presence
of Hazardous Materials on any property of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
or any Environmental Action relating in any way to the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries, except to the extent such claim, damage, loss, liability or
expense is found in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent
jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or
willful misconduct or (iii) any civil penalty or fine assessed by OFAC against,
and all reasonable costs and expenses (including counsel fees and disbursements)
incurred in connection with defense thereof, by the Agent or any Lender as a
result of conduct of the Company that violates a sanction enforced by
OFAC.  In the case of an investigation, litigation or other proceeding
to which the indemnity in this Section 9.04(b) applies, such indemnity shall be
effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought
by the Company, its directors, equityholders or creditors or an Indemnified
Party or any other Person, whether or not any Indemnified Party is otherwise a
party thereto and whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are
consummated.  The Company also agrees not to assert any claim for
special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages against the Agent, any
Lender, any of their Affiliates, or any of their respective directors, officers,
employees, attorneys and agents, on any theory of liability, arising out of or
otherwise relating to the Notes, this Agreement, any of the transactions
contemplated herein or the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Term
Loans.

     

    (c)           If

account of a Lender (i) other than on the last day of the Interest Period
therefor, as a result of a payment pursuant to Section 2.08, 2.10 or 2.12,
acceleration of the maturity of the Notes pursuant to Section 6.01 or for
any other reason, or by an Eligible Assignee to a Lender other than on the last
day of the Interest Period therefor upon an assignment of rights and obligations
under this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.07 as a result of a demand by
the Company pursuant to Section 9.07(a) or (ii) as a result of a payment
pursuant to Section 2.08, 2.10 or 2.12, the Company shall, upon demand by such
Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Agent), pay to the Agent for the
account of such Lender any amounts required to compensate such Lender for any
additional losses, costs or expenses that it may reasonably incur as a result of
such payment, including, without limitation, any loss (including loss of
anticipated profits), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or
reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by any Lender to fund or
maintain the Term Loans.

    (d)           Without
prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Company hereunder, the
agreements and obligations of the Company contained in Sections 2.11, 2.14
and 9.04 shall survive the payment in full of principal, interest and all other
amounts payable hereunder and under the Notes.

     

    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 6.01 to authorize the
Agent to declare the Term Loans due and payable pursuant to the provisions of
Section 6.01, each Lender and each of its Affiliates 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) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing
by such Lender or such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the
Company against any and all of the obligations of the Company now or hereafter
existing under this Agreement and the Note held by such Lender, whether or not
such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or such Note and
although such obligations may be unmatured.  Each Lender agrees
promptly to notify the Company after any such set-off and application, 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 its Affiliates under this
Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without
limitation, other rights of set-off) that such Lender and its Affiliates 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 3.01) when it shall have been executed by the Company and the Agent
and when the 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 Company, the Agent and each Lender and their respective
successors and assigns, except that the Company shall not 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
demanded by the Company (so long as no Default shall have occurred and be
continuing and following a demand by such Lender pursuant to Section 2.11
or 2.14) upon at least five Business Days’ notice to such Lender and the Agent,
will assign to one or more Persons all or a portion of its rights and
obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a
portion of its Term Loans and the Note or Notes held by it); provided, however, that
(i)  except in the case of an assignment to a Person that, immediately
prior to such assignment, was a Lender or an assignment of all of a Lender’s
rights and obligations under this Agreement, the amount of the Term Loans of the
assigning Lender being assigned pursuant to each such assignment (determined as
of the date of the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment)
shall in no event be less than 5,000,000 Swiss Francs or an integral multiple of
1,000,000 Swiss Francs in excess thereof and unless the Company and the Agent
otherwise agree (ii) each such assignment shall be to an Eligible Assignee,
(iii) each such assignment made as a result of a demand by the Company pursuant
to this Section 9.07(a) shall be arranged by the Company after consultation
with the Agent and shall be either an assignment of all of the rights and
obligations of the assigning Lender under this Agreement or an assignment of a
portion of such rights and obligations made concurrently with another such
assignment or other such assignments that together cover all of the rights and
obligations of the assigning Lender under this Agreement, (iv) no Lender
shall be obligated to make any such assignment as a result of a demand by the
Company pursuant to this Section 9.07(a) unless and until such Lender shall
have received one or more payments from the Company or one or more Eligible
Assignees in an aggregate amount at least equal to the aggregate outstanding
principal amount of the Term Loans owing to such Lender, together with accrued
interest thereon to the date of payment of such principal amount and all other
amounts payable to such Lender under this Agreement, and (v) the parties to
each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Agent, for its acceptance
and recording in the Register, an Assignment and Acceptance, together with any
Note subject to such assignment and a processing and recordation fee of $3,500
payable by the parties to each such assignment, provided, however, that in the
case of each assignment made as a result of a demand by the Company, such
recordation fee shall be payable by the Company except that no such recordation
fee shall be payable in the case of an assignment made at the request of the
Company to an Eligible Assignee that is an existing Lender.  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 its rights under Sections 2.11, 2.14 and 9.04 to the extent any
claim thereunder relates to an event arising prior to such assignment) and be
released from its obligations (other than its obligations under Section 8.05 to
the extent any claim thereunder relates to an event arising prior to such
assignment) 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, or the perfection or priority of any lien or security interest created
or purported to be created under or in connection with, this Agreement or any
other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (ii) such assigning
Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with
respect to the financial condition of the Company or the performance or
observance by the Company of any of its obligations under this Agreement or any
other 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 4.01 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 Agent,
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 Agent to take such action as agent on its
behalf and to exercise such powers and discretion under this Agreement as are
delegated to the Agent by the terms hereof, together with such powers and
discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vii) such assignee
agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the
obligations that by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by
it as a Lender.

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

     

    (d)           The
Agent shall maintain at its address referred to in Section 9.02 a copy of
each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it and a register
for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and principal
amount of the Term Loans 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 Company, the 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
Company or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon
reasonable prior notice.

     

    (e)           Each
Lender may sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (other
than the Company or any of its Affiliates) in or to all or a portion of its
rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all
or a portion of the Term Loans owing to it and any Note or Notes held by it);
provided, however, that
(i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged,
(ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties
hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) such Lender shall
remain the holder of any such Note for all purposes of this Agreement,
(iv) the Company, the 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 (v) no participant under any such
participation shall have any right to approve any amendment or waiver of any
provision of this Agreement or any Note, or any consent to any departure by the
Company therefrom, except to the extent that such amendment, waiver or consent
would reduce the principal of, or interest on, the Notes or any fees or other
amounts payable hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such
participation, or postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or
interest on, the Notes or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, in each
case to the extent subject to such participation.

     

    (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 Company furnished to such Lender by or on behalf of the Company;
provided that,
prior to any such disclosure, the assignee or participant or proposed assignee
or participant shall agree to preserve the confidentiality of any Company
Information relating to the Company received by it from such
Lender.

any other provision set forth in this Agreement, any Lender may at any time
create a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this
Agreement (including, without limitation, the Term Loans owing to it and any
Note or Notes held by it) in favor of any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance
with Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
System.

the Agent nor any Lender may disclose to any Person any confidential,
proprietary or non-public information of the Company furnished to the Agent or
the Lenders by the Company (such information being referred to collectively
herein as the “Company
Information”), except that each of the Agent and each of the Lenders may
disclose Company Information (i) to its and its affiliates’ employees,
officers, directors, agents and advisors (it being understood that the Persons
to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of
such Company Information and instructed to keep such Company 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 9.08, to any assignee or participant or prospective
assignee or participant, (vii) to the extent such Company 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 9.08 by the Agent or such Lender, or (B)
is or becomes available to the Agent or such Lender on a nonconfidential basis
from a source other than the Company and (viii) with the consent of the
Company.

9.12  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

    (b)           If
for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a
sum due hereunder in Swiss Francs 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 Agent could
purchase Swiss Francs with Dollars on the Business Day preceding that on which
final judgment is given.

     

    (c)           The
obligation of the Company in respect of any sum due from it in any currency (the
“Primary
Currency”) to any Lender or the 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 or the Agent (as the case may be),
of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency, such Lender or the
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 or the Agent (as the case may be) in the applicable Primary
Currency, the Company agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any
such judgment, to indemnify such Lender or the 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 or the Agent (as the case may be)
in the applicable Primary Currency, such Lender or the Agent (as the case may
be) agrees to remit to the Company such excess.

Etc.  (a)  Each of the parties hereto hereby
irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the
nonexclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, the

enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably
and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or

    (b)           Each
of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest
extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection that it may now or
hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising
out of or relating to this Agreement or the Notes in any Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania or federal court.  Each of the parties hereto hereby
irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an
inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such
court.

     

    SECTION
9.14  Substitution of
Currency. If a change in Swiss Francs 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 Agent (acting
reasonably and in consultation with the Company) to be necessary to reflect the
change in currency and to put the Lenders and the Company in the same position,
so far as possible, that they would have been in if no change in Swiss Francs
had occurred.

owner of the interest being assigned by it hereunder and that such interest is
free and clear of any adverse claim; (ii) makes no representation or

Agreement or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto;
(iii) makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility
with respect to the financial condition of the Company or the performance or

or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto; and
(iv) attaches the Note[, if any,] held by the Assignor [and requests that
the Agent exchange such Note for a new Note payable to the order of the Assignee
in an amount equal to the Term Loans purchased by the Assignee pursuant hereto
or new Notes payable to the order of [the Assignee in an amount equal to the
Term Loans purchased by the Assignee pursuant hereto and] the Assignor in an
amount equal to the Term Loans retained by the Assignor under the Credit
Agreement[, respectively,] as specified on Schedule 1 hereto].

     

    3.           The
Assignee (i) confirms that it has received a copy of the Credit Agreement,
together with copies of the financial statements referred to in
Section 4.01 thereof and such other documents and information as it has
deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into
this Assignment and Acceptance; (ii) agrees that it will, independently and
without reliance upon the Agent, the Assignor 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
the Credit Agreement; (iii) confirms that it is an Eligible Assignee;
(iv) appoints and authorizes the Agent to take such action as agent on its
behalf and to exercise such powers and discretion under the Credit Agreement as
are delegated to the Agent by the terms thereof, together with such powers and
discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto; (v) agrees that it will
perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations that by the terms
of the Credit Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender; and
(vi) attaches any U.S. Internal Revenue Service forms required under
Section 2.14 of the Credit Agreement.

the execution of this Assignment and Acceptance, it will be delivered to the
Agent for acceptance and recording by the Agent.  The effective date
for this Assignment and Acceptance (the “Effective Date”)
shall be the date of acceptance hereof by the Agent, unless otherwise specified
on Schedule 1 hereto.

     

    5.           Upon
such acceptance and recording by the Agent, as of the Effective Date,
(i) the Assignee shall be a party to the Credit Agreement and, to the
extent provided in this Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and
obligations of a Lender thereunder and (ii) the Assignor shall, to the
extent provided in this Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights and be
released from its obligations under the Credit Agreement.

     

    6.           Upon
such acceptance and recording by the Agent, from and after the Effective Date,
the Agent shall make all payments under the Credit Agreement and the Notes in
respect of the interest assigned hereby (including, without limitation, all
payments of principal, interest and facility fees with respect thereto) to the
Assignee.  The Assignor and Assignee shall make all appropriate
adjustments in payments under the Credit Agreement and the Notes for periods
prior to the Effective Date directly between themselves.

     

    7.           This
Assignment and Acceptance shall be governed by, and construed in accordance
with, the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.

     

    8.           This
Assignment and Acceptance 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 Schedule 1 to this Assignment and Acceptance by telecopier shall
be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Assignment
and Acceptance.

     

    IN

this Assignment and Acceptance to be executed by their officers thereunto duly
authorized as of the date specified thereon.

              Re:

            	
              Two Year Credit
      Agreement dated February 24, 2010 (“Credit
    Agreement”)

            


    

     

    Ladies
and Gentlemen:

     

    I am
General Counsel for DENTSPLY International Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
"Borrower"), and its Subsidiaries (as that term is defined in the Credit
Agreement defined below).  This opinion is furnished to you pursuant
to Section 3.01(h)(iv) of the Two Year Credit Agreement, dated as of February
24, 2010 (the “Credit Agreement”), among Dentsply International Inc., the
Lenders parties thereto and PNC Bank, National Association, as Agent for said
Lenders.  All capitalized terms, unless otherwise defined herein,
shall have the respective meanings assigned to them in the Credit
Agreement.  In connection with the Credit Agreement, I am of the
opinion that:

     

    1.           The
Borrower is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing
under the laws of the State of Delaware.

     

    2.           The
execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of the Credit Agreement and
the Notes, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, are
within the Borrower's corporate powers, have been duly authorized by all
necessary corporate action, and do not contravene (i) the Charter or the
By-laws of the Borrower or (ii) any law, rule or regulation applicable to
the Borrower (including, without limitation, Regulation X of the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System) or (iii) any contractual or legal
restriction contained in any document to which the Borrower is a
party.  The Credit Agreement and the Notes have been duly executed and
delivered on behalf of the Borrower.

     

    3.           No
authorization, approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any
governmental authority or regulatory body or any other third party is required
for the due execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of the Credit
Agreement and the Notes.

    4.           The
Credit Agreement is, and after giving effect to the borrowing of the Term Loans,
the Notes will be legal, valid and binding obligations of the Borrower
enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with their respective
terms.

     

    5.           To
the best of my knowledge, there are no pending or overtly threatened actions or
proceedings against the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries before any court,
governmental agency or arbitrator that purport to affect the legality, validity,
binding effect or enforceability of the Credit Agreement or any of the Notes or
the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby or that are likely to
have a materially adverse effect upon the financial condition or operations of
the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

     

    The
opinions set forth in this letter with respect to enforceability are subject to:
(a) the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency (including, without
limitation, all laws relating to fraudulent transfers), reorganization,
moratorium or similar law affecting creditors’ rights generally; and (b) the
effect of general principles of equity, including, without limitation, concepts
of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing (regardless of
whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).  Moreover,
provisions of the Credit Agreement that permit the Lenders to take action or
make determinations, or to benefit from indemnities and similar undertakings of
the Borrower, may be subject to a requirement that such action be taken or such
determinations be made, and that any action or inaction by the Lenders that may
give rise to a request for payment under such an undertaking be taken or not
taken, on a reasonable basis and in good faith.  The foregoing
opinions with respect to enforceability are further qualified by reference to
the fact that certain of the remedies and waivers set forth in the Credit
Agreement may be rendered unavailable or unenforceable under applicable
principles of law or equity but, in my opinion, such unavailability or
unenforceability should not render other remedies which are set forth in the
Credit Agreement unenforceable or otherwise inadequate for the practical
realization of the benefits intended to be provided by the Credit
Agreement.

     

    I express
no opinion as to: (a)  the effect of any law or regulation applicable
to the Borrower or the transactions contemplated by the Credit Agreement, as a
consequence of any Lender’s involvement in such transactions or because of such
Lender’s legal or regulatory status or any other facts specifically pertaining
to such Lender, or (b) as to Section 2.15 of the Credit Agreement insofar as it
provides that any Lender purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant
thereto may exercise set-off or similar rights with respect to such
participation.

     

    My
opinions are issued as of the date hereof and are limited to the laws now in
effect as to which my opinions relate and facts and circumstances in existence
on the date hereof, and I assume no undertaking to advise you of any changes in
the opinions expressed herein as a result of any change in any laws, facts or
circumstances which may come to my attention after the date hereof.

     

    I am
qualified to practice law in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and do not purport
to be expert on, or to express any opinion herein concerning, any law other than
the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, the Delaware General Corporation
Law and the federal laws of the United States of America.
