unused balance of the total Commitments. Borrowings of more than one Type may be outstanding at
the same time; provided that there shall not at any time be more than a total of ten
Eurodollar Borrowings outstanding.




          (d) Limitations on Lengths of Interest Periods. Notwithstanding any other provision
of this Agreement, no Borrower shall be entitled to request, or to elect to convert to or continue
as a Eurodollar Borrowing, any Borrowing if the Interest Period requested therefor would end (i)
after the Commitment Termination Date or (ii) in the case of any Loans that are converted into term
loans pursuant to Section 2.01(b), after the Term Loan Maturity Date.




          SECTION 2.03. Requests for Borrowings. To request a Borrowing, a Borrower shall
notify the Administrative Agent of such request by telephone (a) in the case of a Eurodollar
Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the date of
the proposed Borrowing or (b) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 10:00 a.m., New York
City time, on the date of the proposed Borrowing. Each such telephonic Borrowing Request shall be
irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Administrative
Agent of a written Borrowing Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by
the applicable Borrower and (if such Borrower is not the Company) the Company. Each such
telephonic and written Borrowing Request shall specify the following information in compliance with
Section 2.02:





     (i) the identity of the applicable Borrower;




     (ii) the aggregate amount of the requested Borrowing;




     (iii) the date of such Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day;


364-Day Credit Agreement










 



- 27 -



     (iv) whether such Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing;




     (v) in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period therefor, which shall be
a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”; and




     (vi) the location and number of the applicable Borrower’s account to which funds are to
be disbursed, which shall comply with the requirements of Section 2.04.


If no election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified, then the requested Borrowing shall be an
ABR Borrowing. If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested Eurodollar
Borrowing, then the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one
month’s duration. Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this
Section, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of the amount
of such Lender’s Loan to be made as part of the requested Borrowing.




          SECTION 2.04. Funding of Borrowings.




          (a) Funding by Lenders. Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder
on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 12:00 noon (or, in
the case of an ABR Borrowing, 2:00 p.m.), New York City time, to the account of the Administrative
Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders. The Administrative
Agent will make such Loans available to the applicable Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts
so received, in like funds, to an account of such Borrower or the Company maintained with the
Administrative Agent in New York City and designated by such Borrower in the applicable Borrowing
Request.




          (b) Presumption by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have
received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed time of any Borrowing that such Lender will not
make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the
Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in
accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make
available to the applicable Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in
fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the
applicable Lender agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding
amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made
available to such Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent (the
“Compensation Period”), at the greater of (i) the Federal Funds Effective Rate from time to
time in effect and (ii) a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking
industry rules on interbank compensation. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative
Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. If such
Lender does not pay such amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, the
Administrative Agent may make a demand therefor upon the applicable Borrower, and such Borrower
shall pay such amount to the Administrative Agent, together with interest thereon for the
Compensation Period at a rate per annum equal to the rate of interest applicable to the applicable
Borrowing. Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its
Commitment or to





364-Day Credit Agreement










 



- 28 -



prejudice any rights which the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Borrower may have
against any other Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.




          SECTION 2.05. Interest Elections.




          (a) Elections by Borrowers for Borrowings. Each Borrowing initially shall be of the
Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing,
shall have the Interest Period specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the applicable
Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a Borrowing of a different Type or to continue such
Borrowing as a Borrowing of the same Type and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, may elect the
Interest Period therefor, all as provided in this Section. Such Borrower may elect different
options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such
portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans constituting such Borrowing,
and the Loans constituting each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing.




          (b) Notice of Elections. To make an election pursuant to this Section, the applicable
Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by telephone by the time that a
Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if such Borrower were requesting a Borrowing
of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each
such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by
hand delivery or telecopy to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request in a
form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by such Borrower and (if such Borrower is not
the Company) the Company.




          (c) Information in Interest Election Requests. Each telephonic and written Interest
Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:





     (i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different
options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof
to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified
pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) of this paragraph shall be specified for each resulting
Borrowing);




     (ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election
Request, which shall be a Business Day;




     (iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurodollar
Borrowing; and




     (iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period therefor
after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition
of the term “Interest Period”.


If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing but does not specify an
Interest Period, then the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period
of one month’s duration.






364-Day Credit Agreement










 



- 29 -




          (d) Notice by Administrative Agent to Lenders. Promptly following receipt of an
Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof
and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.




          (e) Failure to Elect; Events of Default. If the applicable Borrower fails to deliver
a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurodollar Borrowing prior to the end of the
Interest Period therefor, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of
such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing. Notwithstanding any
contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the
Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Company, then, so
long as an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or
continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each Eurodollar Borrowing shall be
converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period therefor.




          SECTION 2.06. Termination and Reduction of Commitments.




          (a) Scheduled Termination. Unless previously terminated, the Commitments shall
terminate on the Commitment Termination Date. Unless the Closing Date shall have occurred at or
prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on November 15, 2011, this Agreement and the Commitments
shall automatically terminate at such time.




          (b) Voluntary Termination or Reduction. The Company may at any time terminate the
Commitments and this Agreement or from time to time reduce the Commitments; provided that
(i) each reduction of the Commitments shall be in an amount that is $10,000,000 or a larger
multiple of $1,000,000 and (ii) the Company shall not terminate or reduce the Commitments if, after
giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.08, the total
Revolving Credit Exposures would exceed the total Commitments. Notwithstanding the termination of
the Commitments, this Agreement shall not terminate, and the obligations of the Loan Parties under
this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect until such time as all principal of or
accrued interest on the Loans and all fees and other amounts payable under this Agreement or any
other Loan Document have been paid in full.




          (c) Notice of Voluntary Termination or Reduction. The Company shall notify the
Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under paragraph (b) of
this Section at least two Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or
reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of
any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice
delivered by the Company pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a
notice of termination of the Commitments delivered by the Company may state that such notice is
conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be
revoked by the Company (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified
effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the
Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Commitments shall be made ratably among the
Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments.




          SECTION 2.07. Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt.






364-Day Credit Agreement










 



- 30 -




          (a) Repayment. Each Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the
Administrative Agent for account of the Lenders the outstanding principal amount of the Loans made
to such Borrower (i) in the case of Loans to such Borrower that are not converted to term loans
pursuant to Section 2.01(b), on the Commitment Termination Date and (ii) in the case of any Loans
to such Borrower that are converted to term loans pursuant to Section 2.01(b), on the Term Loan
Maturity Date.




          (b) Maintenance of Loan Accounts by Lenders. Each Lender shall maintain in accordance
with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of each Borrower to such
Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender to such Borrower, including the amounts of
principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender by such Borrower from time to time
hereunder.




          (c) Maintenance of Loan Accounts by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent
shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made to a Borrower
hereunder, the Type thereof and each Interest Period therefor, (ii) the amount of any principal or
interest due and payable or to become due and payable from any Borrower to each Lender hereunder
and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for account of the
Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof.




          (d) Effect of Entries. The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to
paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section shall be prima facie evidence of the existence
and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or
the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner
affect the obligation of the Borrowers to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the records of the Administrative Agent and the
records of a Lender, the records of the Administrative Agent shall control absent manifest error.




          (e) Promissory Notes. Any Lender may request that Loans made by it to any Borrower be
evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, such Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to
such Lender a promissory note payable to such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such
Lender and its registered assigns) substantially in the form of Exhibit C or any other form
approved by the Administrative Agent. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and
interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 9.04) be
represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the order of the payee named
therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered
assigns).




          SECTION 2.08. Prepayment of Loans.




          (a) Optional Prepayments. Each applicable Borrower shall have the right at any time
and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing made to such Borrower in whole or in part, subject to
the requirements of paragraph (b) of this Section.




          (b) Notices, Etc. The applicable Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent by
telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of any
Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, three





364-Day Credit Agreement










 



- 31 -



Business Days before the date of prepayment (which shall be a Business Day) or (ii) in the
case of prepayment of any ABR Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the date
of prepayment (which shall be a Business Day). Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall
specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be
prepaid; provided that, if a notice of optional prepayment is given in connection with a
conditional notice of termination of the Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.06, then such
notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with
Section 2.06. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Borrowing, the
Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial optional
prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of a
Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02. Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be
applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied
by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.10, together with amounts, if any, payable
pursuant to Section 2.13.




          SECTION 2.09. Fees.




          (a) Commitment Fees. The Company agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for
account of each Lender a commitment fee, which shall accrue at a rate per annum equal to the
Applicable Rate on the average daily unused amount of the Commitment of such Lender during the
period from and including the Closing Date to but excluding the earlier of the date such Commitment
terminates or the Commitment Termination Date. Accrued commitment fees shall be payable on each
Quarterly Payment Date and on the earlier of the date on which the Commitment terminates and the
Commitment Termination Date, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Closing Date.




          (b) Administrative Agent Fees. The Company agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent,
for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between
the Company and the Administrative Agent.




          (c) Term-Out Fees. In the event that the Company exercises the option to convert
Loans outstanding on the Commitment Termination Date into term loans pursuant to Section 2.01(b),
the Company agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for account of each Lender a term-out fee
equal to 1.00% of the aggregate principal amount of the Loans of such Lender that are so converted,
payable on the Commitment Termination Date.




          (d) Payment of Fees; Computation of Fees. All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on
the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent for distribution, in the
case of commitment or term out fees, to the Lenders entitled thereto. Fees paid shall not be
refundable under any circumstances. All fees payable under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section
shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of
days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).




          SECTION 2.10. Interest.




          (a) ABR Loans. The Loans constituting each ABR Borrowing shall bear interest at a
rate per annum equal to the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate.






364-Day Credit Agreement










 



- 32 -




          (b) Eurodollar Loans. The Loans constituting each Eurodollar Borrowing shall bear
interest at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the Interest Period for such
Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate.




          (c) Default Interest. If any amount of principal of any Loan, interest or any other
amount payable by any Loan Party under any Loan Document is not paid when due (without regard to
any applicable grace periods), whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, such
amount shall thereafter bear interest at a rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to
the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws. Without duplication of amounts payable under the
preceding sentence, while any Event of Default pursuant to clause (g) or (h) of Article VII exists
and, upon request by the Required Lenders, while any other Event of Default exists, the applicable
Borrower shall pay interest on the principal amount of all outstanding Loans made to such Borrower
at a rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by
applicable Laws.




          (d) Payment of Interest. Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on
each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and upon termination of the Commitments; provided
that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section shall be payable on demand,
(ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of an ABR
Loan prior to the Commitment Termination Date or, in the case of any Loans that are converted to
term loans pursuant to Section 2.01(b), the Term Loan Maturity Date), accrued interest on the
principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and
(iii) in the event of any conversion of any Eurodollar Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest
Period therefor, accrued interest on such Borrowing shall be payable on the effective date of such
conversion.




          (e) Computation. All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of
360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the
Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days
(or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days
elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable Alternate Base Rate
or Adjusted LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall
be conclusive absent manifest error.




          SECTION 2.11. Alternate Rate of Interest. If prior to the commencement of the
Interest Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing:





     (a) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent
manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the
Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period; or




     (b) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Adjusted LIBO
Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such
Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest
Period;


364-Day Credit Agreement










 



- 33 -

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Company and the Lenders by telephone
or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the
Company and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any
Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any
Borrowing as, a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be ineffective and (ii) if any Borrowing Request
requests a Eurodollar Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing.




          SECTION 2.12. Increased Costs.




          (a) Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall:





     (i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan,
deposit insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for
account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected
in the Adjusted LIBO Rate);




     (ii) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or
expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender;
or




     (iii) subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) FATCA, (B) Indemnified Taxes
and (C) Other Connection Taxes on gross or net income, profits, franchise or revenues or
taxes in lieu thereof (including value-added or similar Taxes)) on its Loans (including
principal amount thereof), Commitments or other obligations hereunder, or its deposits,
reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto;


and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lenders or such other
Recipient of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make
any such Loan) or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or such
other Recipient hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Company will pay
to such Lender or such other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as
will compensate such Lender or such other Recipient, as the case may be, for such additional costs
incurred or reduction suffered.




          (b) Capital Requirements. If any Lender determines that any Change in Law regarding
capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on
such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence
of this Agreement or the Loans made by such Lender to a level below that which such Lender or such
Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration
such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital
adequacy), then from time to time the Company will pay to such Lender such additional amount or
amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction
suffered.




          (c) Certificates from Lenders. A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or
amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as
specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be delivered to the Company and





364-Day Credit Agreement










 



- 34 -



shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Company shall pay such Lender the amount shown
as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.




          (d) Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand
compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to
demand such compensation; provided that the Company shall not be required to compensate a
Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days
prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Company of the Change in Law giving rise to such
increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor;
provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or
reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include
the period of retroactive effect thereof.




          SECTION 2.13. Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any
principal of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period therefor
(including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan other
than on the last day of an Interest Period therefor, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue
or prepay any Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of
whether such notice is permitted to be revocable under Section 2.08(b) and is revoked in accordance
therewith), or (d) the assignment of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of an Interest
Period therefor as a result of a request by the Company pursuant to Section 2.16, then, in any such
event, the applicable Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense
attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurodollar Loan, the loss to any Lender attributable
to any such event shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be equal to the
excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest that such Lender would pay for a deposit equal to the
principal amount of such Loan for the period from the date of such payment, conversion, failure or
assignment to the last day of the then current Interest Period for such Loan (or, in the case of a
failure to borrow, convert or continue, the duration of the Interest Period that would have
resulted from such borrowing, conversion or continuation) if the interest rate payable on such
deposit were equal to the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period, over (ii) the amount of
interest that such Lender would earn on such principal amount for such period if such Lender were
to invest such principal amount for such period at the interest rate that would be bid by such
Lender (or an Affiliate of such Lender) for Dollar deposits from other banks in the eurodollar
market at the commencement of such period. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or
amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the
applicable Borrower and (if such Borrower is not the Company) the Company and shall be conclusive
absent manifest error. Such Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such
certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.




          SECTION 2.14. Taxes.




          (a) Withholding of Taxes; Gross-Up. Each payment by any Loan Party under any Loan
Document shall be made without withholding for any Taxes, unless such withholding is required by
any Law. If any Withholding Agent determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that
it is so required to withhold Taxes, then such Withholding Agent may so withhold and shall timely
pay the full amount of withheld Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with
applicable Law. If such Taxes are Indemnified Taxes, then the





364-Day Credit Agreement










 



- 35 -



amount payable by such Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that, net of such
withholding (including such withholding applicable to additional amounts payable under this
Section), the applicable Recipient receives the amount it would have received had no such
withholding been made.




          (b) Payment of Other Taxes by Loan Parties. Each Loan Party shall timely pay any
Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law.




          (c) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified
Taxes by any Loan Party to a Governmental Authority, such Loan Party shall deliver to the
Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental
Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of
such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.




          (d) Indemnification by Loan Parties. The Loan Parties shall jointly and severally
indemnify each Recipient for any Indemnified Taxes that are paid or payable by such Recipient in
connection with any Loan Document (including amounts payable under this Section 2.14(d)) and any
reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified
Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. The
indemnity under this Section 2.14(d) shall be paid within 10 days after the Recipient delivers to
any Loan Party a certificate stating the amount of any Indemnified Taxes so payable by such
Recipient and describing the basis for the indemnification claim. Such certificate shall be
conclusive of the amount so payable absent manifest error. Such Recipient shall deliver a copy of
such certificate to the Administrative Agent. In the case of any Lender making a claim under this
Section 2.14(d) on behalf of any of its beneficial owners, an indemnity payment under this Section
2.14(d) shall be due only to the extent that such Lender is able to establish that, with respect to
the applicable Indemnified Taxes, such beneficial owners supplied to the applicable Persons such
properly completed and executed documentation necessary to claim any applicable exemption from, or
reduction of, such Indemnified Taxes.




          (e) Indemnification by Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the
Administrative Agent for any Taxes (but, in the case of any Indemnified Taxes, only to the extent
that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes
and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so) and the Loan Parties for any
Excluded Taxes, in each case attributable to such Lender that are paid or payable by the
Administrative Agent or the applicable Loan Party (as applicable) in connection with any Loan
Document and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such
Taxes or Excluded Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental
Authority. The indemnity under this Section 2.14(e) shall be paid within 10 days after the
Administrative Agent or the applicable Loan Party (as applicable) delivers to the applicable Lender
a certificate stating the amount of Taxes or Excluded Taxes so paid or payable by the
Administrative Agent or the applicable Loan Party (as applicable). Such certificate shall be
conclusive of the amount so paid or payable absent manifest error.




          (f) Status of Lenders. (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from, or
reduction of, any applicable withholding Tax with respect to any payments under any Loan Document
shall deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent, at the time such Lender





364-Day Credit Agreement










 



- 36 -



becomes a Lender hereunder or at times prescribed by Law or reasonably requested by the
Company or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed
by Law or reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent as will permit such
payments to be made without, or at a reduced rate of, withholding, unless a Change in Law prevents
such Lender from legally being able to complete, execute or deliver such form. In addition, any
Lender, if requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other
documentation prescribed by Law or reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent
as will enable the applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such
Lender is subject to any withholding (including backup withholding) or information reporting
requirements. Upon the reasonable request of the Company or the Administrative Agent, any Lender
shall update any form or certification previously delivered pursuant to this Section 2.14(f). If
any form or certification previously delivered pursuant to this Section expires or becomes obsolete
or inaccurate in any respect with respect to a Lender, such Lender shall promptly (and in any event
within 10 days after such expiration, obsolescence or inaccuracy) notify the Company and the
Administrative Agent in writing of such expiration, obsolescence or inaccuracy and update the form
or certification if it is legally eligible to do so.




          (ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if any Loan Party is a U.S. Person, any
Lender with respect to such Loan Party shall, if it is legally eligible to do so, deliver to such
Loan Party and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies reasonably requested by such Loan
Party and the Administrative Agent), on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a party
hereto, duly completed and executed copies of whichever of the following is applicable:





          (A) in the case of a Lender that is a U.S. Person, IRS Form W-9 certifying that such
Lender is exempt from U.S. Federal backup withholding tax;




          (B) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to
which the United States is a party (1) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan
Document, IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. Federal
withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (2) with respect
to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an
exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business
profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;




          (C) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender for whom payments under the Loan Documents
constitute income that is effectively connected with such Lender’s conduct of a trade or
business in the United States, IRS Form W-8ECI;




          (D) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for
portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code both (1) IRS Form W-8BEN and (2) a
certificate substantially in the applicable form attached as part of Exhibit D (a “U.S.
Tax Certificate”) to the effect that such Lender is not (a) a “bank” within the meaning
of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (b) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Company within
the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code (c) a “controlled


364-Day Credit Agreement










 



- 37 -



foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (d) conducting a
trade or business in the United States with which the relevant interest payments are
effectively connected;




          (E) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender that is not the beneficial owner of payments made
under this Agreement (including a partnership or a participating Lender) (1) an IRS Form
W-8IMY on behalf of itself and (2) the relevant forms prescribed in clauses (A), (B), (C),
(D) and (F) of this paragraph (f)(ii) that would be required of each such beneficial owner
or partner of such partnership if such beneficial owner or partner were a Lender;
provided, however, that if such Lender is a partnership and one or more of
its partners are claiming the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the
Code, such Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Certificate on behalf of such partners; or




          (F) any other form prescribed by Law as a basis for claiming exemption from, or a
reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax together with such supplementary documentation
necessary to enable the applicable Loan Party or the Administrative Agent to determine the
amount of Tax (if any) required by Law to be withheld.



          (iii) If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. Federal
withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable
reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the
Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Withholding Agent, at the time or times
prescribed by Law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Withholding Agent, such
documentation prescribed by applicable Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of
the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Withholding Agent as may be
necessary for the Withholding Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA, to determine that
such Lender has or has not complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the
amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 2.14(f)(iii),
“FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.




          (g) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any Lender or the Administrative Agent
reasonably determines that it has received a refund, in cash or applied as an offset against other
cash tax liability, of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section
(including additional amounts paid pursuant to this Section), such indemnified party shall pay to
the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments
made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all
out-of-pocket expenses (including any Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other
than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such
indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified
party the amount paid to such indemnifying party pursuant to the previous sentence (plus any
interest imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event such indemnified party is
required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Section 2.14(g), in no event will any indemnified party be required to pay any
amount to any indemnifying party pursuant to this





364-Day Credit Agreement










 



- 38 -



Section 2.14(g) to the extent such payment would place such indemnified party in a less
favorable position (on a net after-Tax basis) than such indemnified party would have been in if the
indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid.
This Section 2.14(g) shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its
Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to the
indemnifying party or any other Person.




          SECTION 2.15. Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs.




          (a) Payments by Borrowers. Each Borrower shall make each payment required to be made
by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest or fees, or under Section 2.12, 2.13 or 2.14, or
otherwise) prior to 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date when due, in immediately available
funds, without set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in
the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding
Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the
Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Office, except that payments pursuant to
Sections 2.12, 2.13, 2.14 and 9.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The
Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for account of any other
Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder
shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the
next succeeding Business Day and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon
shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder shall be made in
Dollars.




          (b) Application of Insufficient Payments. If at any time insufficient funds are
received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal,
interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, to pay interest and
fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts
of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, to pay principal then due
hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal
then due to such parties.




          (c) Sharing of Payments by Lenders. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of
set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on
any of its Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the
aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon then due than the proportion received by
any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at
face value) participations in the Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the
benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the
aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans; provided
that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise
thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the
extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be
construed to apply to any payment made by any Loan Party pursuant to and in accordance with the
express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the
assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant, other
than to the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of





364-Day Credit Agreement










 



- 39 -



this paragraph shall apply). Each Loan Party consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the
extent it may effectively do so under applicable Law, that any Lender acquiring a participation
pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Loan Party rights of set-off and
counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor
of such Loan Party in the amount of such participation.




          (d) Presumptions of Payment. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received
notice (which notice shall be effective upon receipt) from the applicable Borrower prior to the
date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for account of the Lenders hereunder
that such Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such
Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such
assumption, distribute to the Lenders the amount due. In such event, if the applicable Borrower
has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to the
Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender with interest
thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding
the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Effective Rate.




          (e) Certain Deductions by the Administrative Agent. If any Lender shall fail to make
any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.04(b), 2.15(d) or 9.03(c), then the
Administrative Agent may, in its discretion and notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, (i)
apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender
and for the benefit of the Administrative Agent to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such
Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid, and/or (ii) hold any such amounts
in a segregated account as cash collateral for, and application to, any future funding obligations
of such Lender under such Sections, in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii) above, in any order
as determined by the Administrative Agent in its discretion.




          SECTION 2.16. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.




          (a) Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation
under Section 2.12, or if any Loan Party is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or
any Governmental Authority for account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.14, then such Lender
shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its
Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices,
branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i)
would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.12 or 2.14, as the case may be, in
the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not
otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Company hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs
and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.




          (b) Replacement of Lenders. If (i) any Lender requests compensation under Section
2.12, (ii) any Loan Party is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any
Governmental Authority for account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.14 or (iii) any Lender
becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the Company may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to
such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate,





364-Day Credit Agreement










 



- 40 -



without recourse, all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an
assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender
accepts such assignment); provided that (A) such assignment shall be effected in accordance
with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04 and such assignee (if not a Lender)
shall have been approved by the Administrative Agent (which approval shall not unreasonably be
withheld), (B) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding
principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it
hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and
fees) or the Company (in the case of all other amounts), (C) with respect to an assignment as a
result of clause (iii) above, the assignment fee shall be paid to the Administrative Agent by the
Company and (D) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under
Section 2.12 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.14, such assignment will result
in a reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any such
assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise,
the circumstances entitling the Company to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.




          SECTION 2.17. Increase in Commitments. The Company may, at any time after the Closing
Date by notice to the Administrative Agent, propose an increase in the total Commitments hereunder
(each such proposed increase being a “Commitment Increase”) either by having a Lender
increase its Commitment then in effect (each an “Increasing Lender”) or by having a Person
which is not then a Lender become a party hereto as a Lender with a new Commitment hereunder (each
an “Assuming Lender”), in each case, with the approval of the Administrative Agent (not to
be unreasonably withheld). Such notice shall specify (i) the name of each Increasing Lender and/or
Assuming Lender, as applicable, (ii) the amount of the Commitment Increase and the portion thereof
being committed to by each such Increasing Lender or Assuming Lender and (iii) the date on which
such Commitment Increase is to be effective (a “Commitment Increase Date”) (which shall be
a Business Day at least five Business Days after delivery of such notice and 30 days prior to the
Commitment Termination Date).




          Each Commitment Increase shall be subject to the following additional conditions:





     (i) unless the Administrative Agent otherwise agrees, the Commitment of any Assuming
Lender as part of any Commitment Increase shall be in a minimum amount of at least
$25,000,000;




     (ii) unless the Administrative Agent otherwise agrees, each Commitment Increase shall be
in an amount of at least $25,000,000;




     (iii) immediately after giving effect to any Commitment Increase, the total Commitments
hereunder shall not exceed $2,000,000,000;




     (iv) no Default has occurred and is continuing on the relevant Commitment Increase
Date or shall result from any Commitment Increase; and




364-Day Credit Agreement















 





 - 41 -





     (v) the representations and warranties of the Loan Parties set forth in this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects (or, in the
case of such representations and warranties qualified as to materiality, in all respects) on
and as of the relevant Commitment Increase Date as if made on and as of such date (or, if
any such representation or warranty is expressly stated to have been made as of a specific
date, as of such specific date).



          Each Commitment Increase (and the increase of the Commitment of each Increasing Lender and/or
the new Commitment of each Assuming Lender, as applicable, resulting therefrom) shall become
effective as of the relevant Commitment Increase Date upon receipt by the Administrative Agent, on
or prior to 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on such Commitment Increase Date, of (a) a certificate
of a Responsible Officer stating that the conditions with respect to such Commitment Increase under
this Section have been satisfied and (b) an agreement, in form and substance satisfactory to the
Company and the Administrative Agent, pursuant to which, effective as of such Commitment Increase
Date, each such Increasing Lender and/or such Assuming Lender, as applicable, shall provide its
Commitment (or an increase of its Commitment, as applicable), duly executed by each such Lender and
the Borrowers and acknowledged by the Administrative Agent. Upon the Administrative Agent’s
receipt of a fully executed agreement from each such Increasing Lender and/or Assuming Lender,
together with such certificate of such Responsible Officer, the Administrative Agent shall record
the information contained in such agreement in the Register and give prompt notice of the relevant
Commitment Increase to the Company and the Lenders (including, if applicable, each Assuming
Lender). On each Commitment Increase Date, if there are Loans then outstanding, each applicable
Borrower shall simultaneously (i) prepay in full the outstanding Loans made to such Borrower
immediately prior to giving effect to the relevant Commitment Increase in accordance with Section
2.08 and (ii) at such Borrower’s option in accordance with this Agreement, such Borrower may
request to borrow new Loans from all the Lenders (including, if applicable, any Assuming Lender)
such that, after giving effect thereto, the Loans are held ratably by the Lenders in accordance
with their respective Commitments (after giving effect to such Commitment Increase).




          Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Lender shall have any obligation to agree
to increase its Commitment hereunder and any election to do so shall be in the sole discretion of
such Lender.




          SECTION 2.18. Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to
the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply
for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:




          (a) such Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to receive any commitment fee pursuant to
Section 2.09(a) for any period during which it is a Defaulting Lender (and the Company shall not be
required to pay any such fee that would otherwise have been required to have been paid to such
Defaulting Lender); and




          (b) the Commitment and Revolving Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be
included in determining whether all Lenders or the Required Lenders have taken or may take any
action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other




364-Day Credit Agreement










 



- 42 -

modification pursuant to Section 9.02), except that (i) the Commitment of any Defaulting
Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender and (ii) any waiver,
amendment or other modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that
by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender more adversely than other affected Lenders shall require
the consent of such Defaulting Lender.




          In the event that the Administrative Agent and the Company each agrees that a Defaulting
Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then
on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans then outstanding of the other
Lenders as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to
hold such Loans in accordance with its Applicable Percentage, whereupon such Lender shall no longer
be a Defaulting Lender.




          SECTION 2.19. Designation of Subsidiary Borrowers. (a) Designation of Subsidiary
Borrowers. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section, the Company may, at any time
or from time to time after the Closing Date upon not less than 10 Business Days’ notice to the
Administrative Agent (or such shorter period which is acceptable to the Administrative Agent),
designate a wholly-owned, direct or indirect Domestic Subsidiary of the Company to become a party
to this Agreement as a Subsidiary Borrower; provided that each such designation shall be
subject to the prior approval of the Administrative Agent (which approval shall not be unreasonably
withheld). Upon receipt of such notice under this Section, the Administrative Agent shall promptly
notify each Lender thereof. Upon such approval and the satisfaction of the conditions specified in
paragraph (b) of this Section, such Subsidiary shall become a party to this Agreement as a
Subsidiary Borrower hereunder and shall be entitled to borrow Loans on and subject to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders of the
effectiveness of such designation. Following the giving of any notice pursuant to this Section, if
the designation of such Subsidiary Borrower obligates the Administrative Agent or any Lender to
comply with “know your customer” or similar identification procedures in circumstances where the
necessary information is not already available to it, the Company shall, promptly upon the request
of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, supply such documentation and other evidence as is
reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in order for the Administrative
Agent or such Lender to carry out and be satisfied it has complied with the results of all
necessary “know your customer” or other similar checks under all applicable Laws and regulations.




          (b) Conditions Precedent to Designation. The designation by the Company of any
Subsidiary as a Subsidiary Borrower hereunder shall not become effective until the date on which
the Administrative Agent shall have received each of the following documents (each of which shall
be satisfactory to the Administrative Agent in form and substance): (i) a Subsidiary Borrower
Designation, duly completed and executed by the Company and such Subsidiary, delivered to the
Administrative Agent at least 5 Business Days before the date on which such Subsidiary is proposed
to become a Subsidiary Borrower; (ii) a favorable written opinion (addressed to the Administrative
Agent and the Lenders and appropriately dated) of external or internal counsel to such Subsidiary
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (and the Company and such Subsidiary Borrower hereby, and
by delivery of such Subsidiary Borrower Designation, instruct such counsel to deliver such opinion
to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders), as to



364-Day Credit Agreement









 



- 43 -

such matters as are consistent with the scope of the opinion of counsel to the Company
delivered pursuant to Section 4.01(e) and/or such other matters as the Administrative Agent may
reasonably request; and (iii) such documents and certificates as the Administrative Agent may
reasonably request in connection therewith (including certified copies of the Organization
Documents of such Subsidiary and of resolutions of its board of directors or similar governing body
authorizing such Subsidiary becoming a Borrower hereunder, and of all documents evidencing all
other necessary corporate or other action required with respect to such Subsidiary Borrower
becoming party to this Agreement).




          (c) Termination of Subsidiary Borrower. So long as there shall be no Loans
outstanding to a Subsidiary Borrower or other amounts owing hereunder or under the other Loan
Documents by such Subsidiary Borrower (or any pending Borrowing Request by such Subsidiary
Borrower), the Company may elect to terminate such Subsidiary Borrower as a Borrower hereunder by
delivering to the Administrative Agent a notice substantially in the form of Exhibit B-2 or any
other form approved by the Administrative Agent (each a “Subsidiary Borrower Termination
Notice”), duly completed and executed. Any Subsidiary Borrower Termination Notice furnished
hereunder shall be effective upon receipt thereof by the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly
so notify the Lenders), whereupon all commitments of the Lenders to make Loans to such Subsidiary
Borrower and the rights of such Subsidiary Borrower to borrow hereunder shall terminate and such
Subsidiary Borrower shall immediately cease to be a Borrower hereunder and a party hereto;
provided that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the delivery of a
Subsidiary Borrower Termination Notice with respect to any Subsidiary Borrower shall not terminate
or discharge (i) any obligation of such Subsidiary Borrower that remains unpaid at such time or
(ii) the obligations of the Company under Article X with respect to any such unpaid obligations.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, upon the occurrence of any event described in
clause (g) or (h) of Article VII with respect to any Subsidiary Borrower, or if at any time any
Subsidiary Borrower shall cease to be a wholly-owned, direct or indirect Domestic Subsidiary of the
Company, (i) all commitments of the Lenders to make Loans to such Subsidiary Borrower and the
rights of such Subsidiary Borrower to borrow hereunder shall automatically terminate and such
Subsidiary Borrower shall immediately cease to be a Subsidiary Borrower hereunder and a party
hereto and (ii) the principal amount then outstanding of, and the accrued interest on, the Loans
(if any) made to such Subsidiary Borrower and all other amounts payable by such Subsidiary Borrower
hereunder (including any amounts payable under Section 2.13) and under the other Loan Documents
shall automatically become immediately due and payable, in each case, without presentment, demand,
protest or other formalities of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by such
Subsidiary Borrower and the Company.

Governmental Authority, by or against the Company or any of its Designated Subsidiaries or against
any of their properties or revenues that (i) either individually or in the aggregate, if determined
adversely, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change or (ii) purport to
affect or pertain to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any of the transactions
contemplated hereby or thereby.




          (b) Environmental Matters. Except with respect to any other matters that,
individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse

          SECTION 3.07. Compliance with Laws. Each of the Company and its Designated
Subsidiaries is in compliance with all Laws (including any Environmental Laws) and orders of any

Change.




          SECTION 3.08. No Default. Neither the Company nor any of its Designated Subsidiaries
is in default under or with respect to any Contractual Obligation that, individually or in the
aggregate, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change. No Default has
occurred and is continuing or would result from the consummation of the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement or any other Loan Document.




          SECTION 3.09. Investment Company Status. None of the Borrowers is and, after
application of the proceeds of the Loans, will be an “investment company” as defined in, or subject
to regulation under, the Investment Company Act of 1940.




          SECTION 3.10. Taxes. Except for Disclosed Tax Matters, each of the Company and its
Designated Subsidiaries has timely filed or caused to be filed all Federal income tax returns and
all other material tax returns and reports required to have been filed and



364-Day Credit Agreement









 



- 46 -

has paid or caused to be paid all taxes required to have been paid by it, except (a) taxes for
which such Person has set aside on its books adequate reserves or (b) to the extent that the
failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change.




          SECTION 3.11. ERISA. (a) Each of the Company and its ERISA Affiliates is in
compliance in all material respects with the applicable provisions of ERISA and the Code and the
regulations and published interpretations thereunder as they relate to each Plan. No ERISA Event
has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur that, when taken together with all other such ERISA
Events, could reasonably be expected to result in material liability of the Company or any of its
ERISA Affiliates. The present value of all benefit liabilities of all underfunded Plans
(determined based on the projected benefit obligation with respect to such underfunded Plans based
on the assumptions used for purposes of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 87) did
not, as of the last annual valuation dates applicable thereto, exceed by more than $300,000,000 the
fair market value of the assets of all such underfunded Plans.




          (b) Each Foreign Pension Plan is in compliance in all material respects with all requirements
of Law applicable thereto and the respective requirements of the governing documents for such plan.
With respect to each Foreign Pension Plan, none of the Company, its Affiliates or any of their
respective directors, officers, employees or agents has engaged in a transaction that would subject
the Company or any Subsidiary, directly or indirectly, to a tax or civil penalty that could
reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Change.
With respect to each Foreign Pension Plan, reserves have been established in the financial
statements furnished to the Lender in respect of any unfunded liabilities in accordance with
applicable Law and prudent business practice or, where required, in accordance with ordinary
accounting practices in the jurisdiction in which such Foreign Pension Plan is maintained. The
aggregate unfunded liabilities with respect to such Foreign Pension Plans could not reasonably be
expected to result in a Material Adverse Change. The present value of the aggregate accumulated
benefit liabilities of all such Foreign Pension Plans (based on those assumptions used to fund each
such Foreign Pension Plan) did not, as of the last annual valuation date applicable thereto, exceed
by more than $900,000,000 the fair market value of the assets held in trust under all such Foreign
Pension Plans.




          SECTION 3.12. Disclosure. None of the reports, financial statements, certificates or
other information furnished by or on behalf of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to the
Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents or delivered hereunder or thereunder (as modified or supplemented by other
information so furnished) contains any material misstatement of fact or omits to state any material
fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they
were made, not misleading as of the date made; provided that, with respect to projected or
pro forma financial information, the Company represents only that such information was prepared in
good faith based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable at the time furnished (it being
understood that such projections and forecasts are subject to uncertainties and contingencies and
no assurances can be given that such projections or forecasts will be realized).




          SECTION 3.13. Margin Regulations. No Loan Party is engaged principally, or as one of
its important activities, in the business of extending credit for the purpose, whether



364-Day Credit Agreement









 



- 47 -

immediate, incidental or ultimate, of buying or carrying Margin Stock, and no part of the
proceeds of any Loan hereunder will be used to buy or carry any Margin Stock. Following the
application of the proceeds of each Borrowing, not more than 25% of the value of the assets of any
of the Loan Parties shall consist of Margin Stock.




          SECTION 3.14. Certain Representations by Subsidiary Borrowers. Each Subsidiary
Borrower severally represents and warrants that the representations and warranties set forth in
Sections 3.01, 3.02, 3.03, 3.04, 3.06, 3.07, 3.08, 3.09, 3.10 and 3.13 with respect to itself and
(if applicable) its Subsidiaries are true and correct in all material respects (or, in the case of
any such representations and warranties qualified as to materiality, in all respects).




          SECTION 3.15. Sanctioned Persons. None of the Company or any Subsidiary nor, to the
knowledge of the Company, any director or officer of the Company or any Subsidiary is currently the
target of any U.S. sanctions administered by the Office of Foreign Assets Control of the U.S.
Treasury Department (“OFAC”); and no Borrower will directly or indirectly use the proceeds
of the Loans or otherwise make available such proceeds to any Person, for the purpose of financing
the activities of any Person currently subject to any U.S. sanctions administered by OFAC.

ARTICLE VIII




ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT



          Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent as its agent
hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such
actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by
the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental
thereto.




          The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers
in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the
Administrative Agent, and such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to
and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrowers or any Subsidiary or other
Affiliate thereof as if it were not the Administrative Agent hereunder.




          The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set
forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
(a) the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties,
regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) the Administrative Agent shall
not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except
discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that
the Administrative Agent is required to exercise in writing by the Required Lenders and (c) except
as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not
have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information
relating to any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the
Person serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The
Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent
or at the request of the Required Lenders or in the absence of its own gross negligence or wilful
misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to



364-Day Credit Agreement









 



- 60 -

have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the
Administrative Agent by the Borrowers or a Lender, and the Administrative Agent shall not be
responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or
representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the
contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in
connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants,
agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein, (iv) the validity,
enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any
other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in
Article IV or elsewhere herein or therein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly
required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.




          The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for
relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other
writing believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person. The
Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and
believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying
thereon. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for any
Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for
any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants
or experts.




          The Administrative Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers
by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative
Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers
through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs
shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any
such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication
of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.




          Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent as provided in
this paragraph, the Administrative Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders and the
Company. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation
with the Company, to appoint a successor. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the
Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring
Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may,
on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent which shall be a bank with an
office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank, in each case with a combined
capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as
Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested
with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative
Agent and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations
hereunder (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this paragraph). The fees
payable by the Company to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to
its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Company and such successor. After the
Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article



364-Day Credit Agreement









 



- 61 -

and Section 9.03 shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or
omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as Administrative Agent.




          Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the
Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has
deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each
Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative
Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time
deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based
upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished
hereunder or thereunder.




          In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy,
reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any
Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then
be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether
the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on any Borrower) shall be entitled and
empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise: (a) to file and prove a claim for the
whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other
Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or
advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any
claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the
Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders
and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.04 and 9.03) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and
(b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims
and to distribute the same; and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator,
sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each
Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative
Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the
Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and
advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the
Administrative Agent under Sections 2.04 and 9.03. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to
authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any
Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations
or the rights of any Lender or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the
claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.




          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Joint Lead Arrangers, the
Syndication Agent and the Co-Documentation Agents named on the cover page of this Agreement shall
not have any duties or liabilities under this Agreement (except in their capacity, if any, as
Lenders).

the applicable address or telecopier number for the applicable Person in Schedule 9.01.




          (b) Electronic Communications. Notices and other communications to the Lenders
hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communications pursuant to procedures
approved by the Administrative Agent; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to
notices pursuant to Article II unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and the

procedures approved by it; provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to
particular notices or communications.




          (c) Change of Address, Etc. Any party hereto may change its address or telecopy

          SECTION 9.02. Waivers; Amendments.




          (a) No Deemed Waivers; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay by the Administrative
Agent or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof,
nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or
discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise
thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative
Agent and the Lenders hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that
they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any
departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be
permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only
in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of
the foregoing, the making of a Loan shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless
of whether the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Default
at the time.




          (b) Amendments. Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived,
amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the
Loan Parties and the Required Lenders or by the Loan Parties and the Administrative Agent with the
consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall:

- 63 -



     (ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or
reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender directly and
adversely affected thereby (provided that only the consent of the Required Lenders
shall be necessary to amend the definition of “Default Rate” or to waive any obligation of
the applicable Borrower to pay interest at the Default Rate);




     (iii) postpone the scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan, or
any interest thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or
excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment,
without the written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby;




     (iv) change Section 2.15(b) or (c) in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of
payments required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender;




     (v) change any of the provisions of this Section or the definition of the term
“Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of
Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or

     (vi) release the Company from its guarantee obligations under Article X, without the
written consent of each Lender;

provision of Section 2.18 without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent or (B)
amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of any other Agent hereunder without the
prior written consent of such other Agent.

out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Agents, the Joint Lead Arrangers and their respective
Affiliates, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the
Administrative Agent, in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for
herein, the preparation and administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or any
amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated); and (ii) all out-of-pocket
expenses incurred by any Agent or any Lender, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any
counsel for any Agent or any Lender, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights
in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including its rights under this
Section, or in connection with the Loans made hereunder, including in connection with any workout,
restructuring or negotiations in respect thereof, including in each case the fees, charges and
disbursements of counsel, accountants, financial advisors and other experts engaged by the Agents
or the Required Lenders (including the

allocated fees of in-house counsel). This Section shall not apply with respect to Taxes other
than any Taxes that represent losses or damages arising from any non-Tax claim.




          (b) Indemnification by Company. The Company agrees to indemnify each Agent, each
Joint Lead Arranger and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each
such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from,
any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges
and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee
arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this
Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the performance by the parties hereto
of their respective obligations hereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other
transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any Loan or the use or intended use of the proceeds
therefrom or (iii) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding
relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and
regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto (and regardless of whether such matter is
initiated by a third party, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries); provided that such
indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims,
damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by
final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from (x) the gross negligence, bad faith or
wilful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (y) any action, suit, proceeding or claim solely among
Indemnitees that does not involve an act or omission of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries,
other than any such action, suit, proceeding or claim against the Administrative Agent, the
Syndication Agent, any Co-Documentation Agent or any Joint Lead Arranger in its capacity, or in
fulfilling its role, as Administrative Agent, Syndication Agent, Co-Documentation Agent or Joint
Lead Arranger under this Agreement. This Section shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than
any Taxes that represent losses or damages arising from any non-Tax claim.




          (c) Reimbursement by Lenders. To the extent that the Company fails to pay any amount
required to be paid by it to any Agent under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, each Lender
severally agrees to pay to such Agent such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (determined as of the
time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid
amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage,
liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against such Agent in
its capacity as such.




          (d) Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the extent permitted by applicable Law,
the Loan Parties shall not assert, and hereby waive, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any
theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct
or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any
agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions, any Loan or the use or the intended
use of the proceeds thereof.




          (e) Use of Information. No Person indemnified under paragraph (b) of this Section
shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by others of any information or other
materials obtained through IntraLinks or other similar information transmission systems in
connection with this Agreement other than for direct or actual damages resulting from the gross



364-Day Credit Agreement









 



- 65 -

negligence or wilful misconduct of such indemnified Person as determined by a final and
nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.




          (f) Payments. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable promptly after
written demand therefor.




          SECTION 9.04. Successors and Assigns.




          (a) Assignments Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and
inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted
hereby, except that (i) no Loan Party may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or
obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted
assignment or transfer by any Loan Party without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no
Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance
with this Section. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer
upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted
hereby and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Agents,
the Lenders and the Joint Lead Arrangers) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by
reason of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.




          (b) Assignments by Lenders. (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph
(b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and
obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the
time owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) of:





     (A) the Company; provided that no consent of the Company shall be required for
an assignment to (I) a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or (II) if an
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any other assignee; and provided,
further, that the Company shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment
requiring its consent under this clause (A) unless it shall object thereto by written notice
to the Administrative Agent within 15 Business Days after having received written notice
thereof; and




     (B) the Administrative Agent; provided that no consent of the Administrative
Agent shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an

assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such
assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000
unless each of the Company (except if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing)
and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld);

- 66 -



     (B) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of
all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement;




     (C) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative
Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of
$3,500;




     (D) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative
Agent an Administrative Questionnaire in which the assignee designates one or more credit
contacts to whom all syndicate-level information (which may contain material non-public

be made available and who may receive such information in accordance with the assignee’s
compliance procedures and applicable Laws, including Federal and state securities Laws; and




     (E) no such assignment shall be made to (I) the Company or any of the Company’s

benefit of a natural person and/or family members or relatives of such person.

benefits of Sections 2.12, 2.13, 2.14 and 9.03). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights
or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph shall be treated for
purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and
obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section.




          (iv) Maintenance of Register by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent,
acting for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Loan Parties, shall maintain at one of its
offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation
of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans
owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The
entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Loan Parties, the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register
pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement,
notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by any Loan
Party and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

          (v) Effectiveness of Assignments. Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and
Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative
Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and
recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such
assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such
Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register;
provided that if either the assigning Lender or the assignee shall have failed to make any
payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.04(b), 2.15(e) or 9.03(c), the
Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to accept such Assignment and Assumption and record
the information therein in the Register unless and until such payment shall have been made in full,
together with all accrued interest thereon. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this
Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.




          (c) Participations. Any Lender may, without the consent of the Company or the
Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a
“Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this
Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it);
provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged;
(B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of
such obligations; and (C) the Company, 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. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells
such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this
Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement;
provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without
the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the
first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that affects such Participant. The Company agrees that each
Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.12, 2.13 and 2.14 to the same extent as
if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this
Section; provided that such Participant (A) shall be subject to the requirements and
limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 2.14(f) (it being understood that the
documentation required under Section 2.14(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender); (B)
agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 2.15 and 2.16 as if it were an assignee under
paragraph (b) of this Section; and (C) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under
Section 2.12 or 2.14, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have
been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment
results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable
participation. To the extent permitted by Law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the
benefits of Section 9.09 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be
subject to Section 2.15(d) as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation
shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, maintain a
register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and
stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this
Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any
obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the
identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any
Commitment, Loan, promissory note or other obligations under any



364-Day Credit Agreement









 



- 68 -

Loan Document) except if additional payments under Sections 2.12 and 2.14 are requested with
respect to such Participant and except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish
that such Commitment, Loan, promissory note or other obligation is in registered form under Section
5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register
shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each person whose name is
recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this
Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.




          (d) Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest
in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender,
including any such pledge or assignment to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply
to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or
assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or
substitute any such assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.




          SECTION 9.05. Survival. All representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties
herein and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to
this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other
parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making by the
Lenders of any Loans, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any Lender and
notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any
Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and
shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any
Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement or any other Loan Document is
outstanding and unpaid and so long as the Commitments have not expired or been terminated. The
provisions of Sections 2.12, 2.13, 2.14 and 9.03 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full
force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, any
assignment of rights by, or replacement of, a Lender, the expiration or termination of the
Commitments, the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations under the Loan Documents,
the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of any Loan Document or any
investigation made by or on behalf of any Lender.




          SECTION 9.06. Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be
executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which
shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single
contract. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect
to fees payable to the Administrative Agent constitute the entire contract between and among the
parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and
understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in
Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the
Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof
which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter
shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective
successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement
by telecopy shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.



364-Day Credit Agreement









 



- 69 -


          SECTION 9.07. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and
enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not
be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to
replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect
of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions.
The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render
unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.




          SECTION 9.08. Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of
any Loan Party is made to the Administrative Agent or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent or
any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any
part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or
required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent or such
Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection
with any proceeding under any Federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or
similar Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof
originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if
such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred, and (b) each Lender severally
agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of
any amount so recovered from or repaid by the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the
date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds
Effective Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of the Lenders under clause (b) of the
preceding sentence shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this
Agreement.




          SECTION 9.09. Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, each Lender and its Affiliates are 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 and its Affiliates to or for the credit or the account of any Loan Party against any
and all of the obligations of such Loan Party hereunder and under the other Loan Documents,
irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement and
although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender under this Section are in
addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may
have. Each Lender agrees to notify the Company and the Administrative Agent promptly after any
such setoff and application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect
the validity of such setoff and application.




          SECTION 9.10. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process.




          (a) Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed
by the law of the State of New York.




          (b) Submission to Jurisdiction. Each Loan Party hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme
Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District



364-Day Credit Agreement









 



- 70 -

Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any
action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or
for recognition or 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 proceeding may be heard
and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by Law, in such Federal court.
Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be
conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other
manner provided by Law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that the Administrative
Agent or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement
against any Loan Party or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.




          (c) Waiver of Venue. Each Loan Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives,
to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which 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 other Loan Documents in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this
Section. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by
Law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any
such court.




          (d) Service of Process. Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service
of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.01. Nothing in this Agreement will
affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by
Law.




          SECTION 9.11. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST
EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL
PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER LOAN
DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER
THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER
PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF
LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES
HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER
THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.




          SECTION 9.12. Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used
herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and shall not affect
the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.




          SECTION 9.13. Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders
agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that
Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ Related Parties (it being understood



364-Day Credit Agreement









 



- 71 -

that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature
of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent
requested by any regulatory authority or quasi-regulatory authority (such as the NAIC), (c) to the
extent required by any applicable Laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process,
(d) to any other party to this Agreement, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies
hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this
Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f)
subject to an agreement in writing containing provisions substantially the same as those of this
paragraph and for the benefit of the Loan Parties, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any
prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or
(ii) any actual or prospective party (or its Related Parties) to any swap, derivative other
transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to any Borrower and its obligations,
this Agreement or payments hereunder, (g) with the consent of the Company or (h) to the extent such
Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this paragraph or
(ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a
source other than the Company. In the event that the Administrative Agent or any Lender becomes
legally compelled to disclose any confidential Information pursuant to clause (c) of this Section,
the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall, to the extent permitted by Law, give prompt written
notice of that fact to the Company prior to the disclosure, and in the event that the Company shall
advise the Administrative Agent or such Lender that it will seek an appropriate remedy to prevent
or limit such disclosure, the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, shall cooperate
reasonably (at the expense of the Company) with the Company in seeking such remedy. For the
purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Company
relating to the Company, its Subsidiaries or their business, other than any such information that
is available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to
disclosure by the Company; provided that, in the case of written information received from
the Company after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at or prior to the time
of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as
provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such
Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as
such Person would accord to its own confidential information.




          EACH LENDER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT INFORMATION (AS DEFINED IN THIS SECTION) FURNISHED TO IT
PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY INCLUDE MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION CONCERNING THE COMPANY AND
ITS RELATED PARTIES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES, AND CONFIRMS THAT IT HAS DEVELOPED COMPLIANCE
PROCEDURES REGARDING THE USE OF MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION AND THAT IT WILL HANDLE SUCH
MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THOSE PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE LAW, INCLUDING
FEDERAL AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS.




          ALL INFORMATION, INCLUDING REQUESTS FOR WAIVERS AND AMENDMENTS, FURNISHED BY THE COMPANY OR
THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT PURSUANT TO, OR IN THE COURSE OF ADMINISTERING, THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE
SYNDICATE-LEVEL INFORMATION, WHICH MAY CONTAIN MATERIAL NON-



364-Day Credit Agreement









 



- 72 -

PUBLIC INFORMATION ABOUT THE COMPANY AND ITS RELATED PARTIES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES.
ACCORDINGLY, EACH LENDER REPRESENTS TO THE COMPANY AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT THAT IT HAS
IDENTIFIED IN ITS ADMINISTRATIVE QUESTIONNAIRE A CREDIT CONTACT WHO MAY RECEIVE INFORMATION THAT
MAY CONTAIN MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH ITS COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES AND
APPLICABLE LAW, INCLUDING FEDERAL AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS.




          SECTION 9.14. USA PATRIOT Act. Each Lender hereby notifies the Loan Parties that
pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law
October 26, 2001)), such Lender may be required to obtain, verify and record information that
identifies each Loan Party, which information includes the name and address of each Loan Party and
other information that will allow such Lender to identify such Loan Party in accordance with said
Act.




          SECTION 9.15. No Advisory or Fiduciary Relationships. In connection with all aspects
of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or
other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), each Loan Party acknowledges and agrees
that: (a) (i) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by the
Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Joint Lead Arrangers are arm’s-length commercial
transactions between the Company and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent,
the Lenders and the Joint Lead Arrangers, on the other hand, (ii) each Loan Party has consulted its
own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate, and
(iii) each Loan Party is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and
conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; (b) (i) the
Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Joint Lead Arrangers each is and has been acting solely
as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is
not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for the Company or any of its
Affiliates, or any other Person and (ii) none of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the
Joint Lead Arrangers has any obligation to the Company or any of its Affiliates with respect to the
transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the
other Loan Documents; and (c) the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Joint Lead Arrangers
and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve
interests that differ from those of the Company and its Affiliates, and none of the Administrative
Agent, the Lenders and Joint Lead Arrangers has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to
the Company or its Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by Law, each Loan Party hereby
waives and releases any claims that it may have against the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and
the Joint Lead Arrangers with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty
in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby.




ARTICLE X




GUARANTEE



          SECTION 10.01. Guarantee. The Company hereby guarantees to each Lender and the
Administrative Agent and their respective successors and assigns the prompt payment in



364-Day Credit Agreement









 



- 73 -

full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the Obligations of
each Subsidiary Borrower strictly in accordance with the terms thereof (such obligations being
herein collectively called the “Guaranteed Obligations”). The Company hereby further
agrees that if any Subsidiary Borrower shall fail to pay in full when due (whether at stated
maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) any of the Guaranteed Obligations of such Subsidiary
Borrower, the Company will promptly pay the same, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that
in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of such Guaranteed Obligations,
the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity, by acceleration or
otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal.




          SECTION 10.02. Obligations Unconditional. The obligations of the Company under
Section 10.01 are absolute, irrevocable and unconditional, irrespective of the value, genuineness,
validity, regularity or enforceability of the obligations of the Subsidiary Borrowers under this
Agreement or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein, or any substitution, release or
exchange of any other guarantee of or security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and, to the
fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, irrespective of any Law of any jurisdiction or any
other event affecting any term of any Guaranteed Obligation or any other circumstance whatsoever
that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor,
it being the intent of this Article that the obligations of the Company hereunder shall be absolute
and unconditional under any and all circumstances. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, it is agreed that the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall not alter or
impair the liability of the Company hereunder, which shall remain absolute and unconditional as
described above:





     (i) at any time or from time to time, without notice to the Company, the time for any
performance of or compliance with any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be extended, or
such performance or compliance shall be waived;




     (ii) any of the acts mentioned in any of the provisions of this Agreement or any other
agreement or instrument referred to herein shall be done or omitted; or




     (iii) the maturity of any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be accelerated, or any of
the Guaranteed Obligations shall be modified, supplemented or amended in any respect, or any
right under this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein shall be
waived or any other guarantee of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security therefor
shall be released or exchanged in whole or in part or otherwise dealt with.


The Company hereby expressly waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest and all
notices whatsoever, and any requirement that the Administrative Agent or any Lender exhaust any
right, power or remedy or proceed against any Subsidiary Borrower under this Agreement or any other
agreement or instrument referred to herein, or against any other Person under any other guarantee
of, or security for, any of the Guaranteed Obligations.




          SECTION 10.03. Reinstatement. The obligations of the Company under this Article shall
be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of
any Subsidiary Borrower in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or



364-Day Credit Agreement









 



- 74 -

must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether as a
result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise, and each Guarantor agrees
that it will indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender on demand for all reasonable costs
and expenses (including fees of counsel) incurred by the Administrative Agent or such Lender in
connection with such rescission or restoration, including any such costs and expenses incurred in
defending against any claim alleging that such payment constituted a preference, fraudulent
transfer or similar payment under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar Law.




          SECTION 10.04. Subrogation. The Company hereby agrees that, until the payment and
satisfaction in full of all Guaranteed Obligations and the expiration and termination of the
Commitments of the Lenders under this Agreement, it shall not exercise any right or remedy arising
by reason of any performance by it of its guarantee in Section 10.01, whether by subrogation or
otherwise, against any Subsidiary Borrower or any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed
Obligations or any security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations.




          SECTION 10.05. Remedies. The Company agrees that, as between the Company and the
Lenders, the obligations of any Subsidiary Borrower under this Agreement may be declared to be
forthwith due and payable as provided in Article VII (and shall be deemed to have become
automatically due and payable in the circumstances provided in Article VII) for purposes of Section
10.01 notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or
such obligations from becoming automatically due and payable) as against such Subsidiary Borrower
and that, in the event of such declaration (or such obligations being deemed to have become
automatically due and payable), such obligations (whether or not due and payable by such Subsidiary
Borrower) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Company for purposes of Section 10.01.




          SECTION 10.06. Continuing Guarantee. The guarantee in this Article is a continuing
guarantee, and shall apply to all Guaranteed Obligations whenever arising.
