deemed to have automatically, irrevocably and unconditionally purchased and
received (to the extent of its unused Commitment) from each other Lender an
undivided interest and participation in and to each Loan in such amounts as are
necessary such that, after giving effect thereto, each Syndicated Global Lender
shall hold its Pro Rata Share of each Loan; provided, that to the extent
such conversion shall occur other than at the end of an Interest Period, the
Borrowers shall pay to the Global Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit
of each applicable Lender, all losses and breakage costs related thereto in
accordance with Section 3.4 and, upon the written request of the

Canadian Borrower in respect of such Loans shall not be discharged by an amount
paid in any other currency or at another place, whether pursuant to a judgment
or otherwise, to the extent the amount so paid, on prompt conversion into
Dollars or Canadian Dollars (as applicable) and transfer to such Syndicated
Canadian Bank under normal banking procedure, does not yield the amount of
Dollars or Canadian Dollars (as applicable) due under this Agreement and the
Syndicated Canadian Addendum.  In the
event that any payment, whether pursuant to a judgment or otherwise, upon
conversion and transfer, does not result in payment of the amount of Dollars or

Loans at such time, plus (iv) the aggregate amount of the Bid Rate Loans
at such time, is less than or equal to the Aggregate Commitment, (w) the Dollar
Amount of all Canadian Swing Line Loans, Syndicated Canadian Loans and
Syndicated Global Loans, in each case to the extent denominated in Canadian
Dollars, is less than or equal to the Canadian Dollar Sublimit, (x) the amount
of the outstanding Canadian Swing Line Loans is less than or equal to the
Canadian Swing Line Commitment, (y) the Dollar Amount of the outstanding U.K.
Swing Line Loans is less than or equal to the U.K. Swing Line Commitment and
(z) the Dollar Amount of the Syndicated Canadian Loans is less than or equal to
the Syndicated Canadian Commitments.

 

2.4  Reduction/Increase of Commitments.

 

(a)  Reduction of Commitments.  The U.S. Borrower may permanently reduce the
Aggregate Commitment in whole, or in part ratably among the Lenders, in an
aggregate minimum amount of $10,000,000 and integral multiples of $5,000,000 in
excess of that amount, upon at least five Business Days’ prior written notice
to the Global Administrative Agent, which notice shall specify the amount of
any such reduction; provided, however, that the amount of the

 

34

 

Aggregate Commitment may
not be reduced below the sum of the aggregate principal Dollar Amount of the
outstanding Advances (including Syndicated Canadian Advances) and the Swing
Line Loans.  In addition, the Canadian
Borrower may, upon three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Global
Administrative Agent, terminate entirely at any time or reduce from time to
time, by an aggregate amount of $5,000,000 or any larger multiple of $1,000,000
(or as otherwise set forth in the Syndicated Canadian Addendum), the unused
portions of the Syndicated Canadian Commitments as specified by the Canadian
Borrower in such notice to the Global Administrative Agent; provided, however,
that at no time shall the Syndicated Canadian Commitments be reduced to a
figure less than the total of the outstanding principal amount of all
Syndicated Canadian Loans and Canadian Swing Line Loans owing by the Canadian
Borrower.  All accrued facility fees
shall be payable on the effective date of any termination of the obligations of
the Lenders to make Loans hereunder.  The
Global Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to the relevant Lenders
any notices received by it under this Section 2.4(a).

 

(b)  Increase in Aggregate Commitment.

 

(i)  At any time prior to the
Termination Date, the U.S. Borrower may request that the Aggregate Commitment
be increased; provided that, without the prior
written consent of all of the Lenders, (A) the Aggregate Commitment shall at no
time exceed $1,400,000,000 and (B) each such request shall be in a minimum
amount of at least $10,000,000.  Each request
shall be made in a written notice given to the Global Administrative Agent and
the Lenders by the U.S. Borrower not less than twenty (20) Business Days prior
to the proposed effective date of such increase, which notice (a “Commitment
Increase Notice”) shall specify the amount of the proposed increase in the
Aggregate Commitment and the proposed effective date of such increase.  In the event of such a Commitment Increase
Notice, each of the Syndicated Global Lenders shall be given the opportunity to
participate in the requested increase ratably in the proportions that their
respective Commitments bear to the Aggregate Commitment under this
Agreement.  On or prior to the date that
is fifteen (15) Business Days after receipt of the Commitment Increase Notice,
each Syndicated Global Lender shall submit to the Global Administrative Agent a
notice indicating the maximum amount by which it is willing to increase its
Commitment in connection with such Commitment Increase Notice (any such notice
to the Global Administrative Agent being herein a “Lender Increase Notice”).  Any Syndicated Global Lender which does not
submit a Lender Increase Notice to the Global Administrative Agent prior to the
expiration of such fifteen (15) Business Day period shall be deemed to have
denied any increase in its Commitment. 
In the event that the increases of Commitments set forth in the Lender
Increase Notices exceed the amount requested by the U.S. Borrower in the
Commitment Increase Notice, the Global Administrative Agent and the Arrangers
shall have the right, with the consent of the U.S. Borrower, to allocate the
amount of increases necessary to meet the Commitment Increase Notice.  In the event that the Lender Increase Notices
are less than the amount requested by the Commitment Increase Notice, not later
than three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed effective date of the
requested increase, the U.S. Borrower may notify the Global Administrative
Agent of any financial institution that shall have agreed to become a “Lender”
party hereto (a “Proposed New Lender”) in connection with the Commitment
Increase Notice.  Any Proposed New Lender
shall be subject to the consent of the Global Administrative Agent (which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). 
If the U.S. Borrower shall not have arranged any Proposed New Lender(s)
to commit to the shortfall from the Lender Increase Notices, then the U.S.
Borrower shall be deemed to have reduced the amount of the Commitment

 

35

 

Increase Notice to
the aggregate amount set forth in the Lender Increase Notices.  Based upon the Lender Increase Notices, any
allocations made in connection therewith and any notice regarding any Proposed
New Lender, if applicable, the Global Administrative Agent shall notify the
U.S. Borrower and the Syndicated Global Lenders on or before the Business Day
immediately prior to the proposed effective date of the amount of each
Syndicated Global Lender’s and Proposed New Lenders’ Commitment (the “Effective
Commitment Amount”) and the amount of the Aggregate Commitment, which
amounts shall be effective on the following Business Day.  Any increase in the Aggregate Commitment
shall be subject to the following conditions precedent: (I) as of the date of
the Commitment Increase Notice and as of the proposed effective date of the
increase in the Aggregate Commitment, no event shall have occurred and then be
continuing which constitutes a Default or Unmatured Default, (II) the U.S.
Borrower, the Global Administrative Agent and each Proposed New Lender or
Syndicated Global Lender that shall have agreed to provide a “Commitment” in
support of such increase in the Aggregate Commitment shall have executed and
delivered a “Commitment and Acceptance” substantially in the form of Exhibit I
hereto, (III) counsels for the Borrowers and for the Guarantors shall have
provided to the Global Administrative Agent supplemental opinions in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to the Global Administrative Agent and (IV)
the Borrowers, the Guarantors and the Proposed New Lender shall otherwise have
executed and delivered such other instruments and documents as the Global
Administrative Agent shall have reasonably requested in connection with such
increase.  If any fee shall be charged by
the Lenders in connection with any such increase, such fee shall be in
accordance with then prevailing market conditions, which market conditions
shall have been reasonably documented by the Global Administrative Agent to the
U.S. Borrower.  No less than two (2)
Business Days prior to the effective date of the increase of the Aggregate
Commitment, the Global Administrative Agent shall notify the U.S. Borrower of
the amount of the fee to be charged by the Lenders, and the U.S. Borrower may,
at least one (1) Business Day prior to such effective date, cancel its request
for the commitment increase.  Upon
satisfaction of the conditions precedent to any increase in the Aggregate
Commitment, the Global Administrative Agent shall promptly advise the U.S.
Borrower and each Syndicated Global Lender of the effective date of such
increase.  Upon the effective date of any
increase in the Aggregate Commitment that is supported by a Proposed New
Lender, such Proposed New Lender shall be a party to this Agreement as a Lender
and shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder.  Nothing contained herein shall constitute, or
otherwise be deemed to be, a commitment on the part of any Lender to increase
its Commitment hereunder at any time.

 

(ii)  For purposes of this clause
(ii), (A) the term “Buying Lender(s)” shall mean (1) each Syndicated
Global Lender the Effective Commitment Amount of which is greater than its
Commitment prior to the effective date of any increase in the Aggregate
Commitment and (2) each Proposed New Lender that is allocated an Effective
Commitment Amount in connection with any Commitment Increase Notice and (B) the
term “Selling Lender(s)” shall mean each Syndicated Global Lender whose
Commitment is not being increased from that in effect prior to such increase in
the Aggregate Commitment.  Effective on
the effective date of any increase in the Aggregate Commitment pursuant to
clause (i) above, each Selling Lender hereby sells, grants, assigns and conveys
to each Buying Lender, without recourse, warranty, or representation of any
kind, except as specifically provided herein, an undivided percentage in such
Selling Lender’s right, title and interest in and to the sum of (i) the
aggregate principal amount of its Syndicated Global Loans outstanding at such
time, plus (ii) an amount equal to its actual

 

36

 

participation
interest of its Pro Rata Share of the aggregate principal amount of Swing Line
Loans and Syndicated Canadian Loans outstanding at such time (“Outstanding
Credit Exposure”) in the respective Dollar Amounts and percentages
necessary so that, from and after such sale, each such Selling Lender’s
Outstanding Credit Exposure shall equal such Selling Lender’s Pro Rata Share
(calculated based upon the Effective Commitment Amounts) of the Aggregate
Outstanding Credit Exposure.  Effective
on the effective date of the increase in the Aggregate Commitment pursuant to
clause (i) above, each Buying Lender hereby purchases and accepts such grant,
assignment and conveyance from the Selling Lenders. Each Buying Lender hereby
agrees that its respective purchase price for the portion of the Aggregate
Outstanding Credit Exposure purchased hereby shall equal the respective Dollar
Amount necessary so that, from and after such payments, each Buying Lender’s
Outstanding Credit Exposure shall equal such Buying Lender’s Pro Rata Share
(calculated based upon the Effective Commitment Amounts) of the aggregate of
the Outstanding Credit Exposure of all the Syndicated Global Lenders (“Aggregate
Outstanding Credit Exposure”).  Such
amount shall be payable on the effective date of the increase in the Aggregate
Commitment by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Global
Administrative Agent.  The Global
Administrative Agent, in turn, shall wire transfer any such funds received to
the Selling Lenders, in same day funds, for the sole account of the Selling
Lenders.  Each Selling Lender hereby
represents and warrants to each Buying Lender that such Selling Lender owns the
Outstanding Credit Exposure being sold and assigned hereby for its own account
and has not sold, transferred or encumbered any or all of its interest in such
Outstanding Credit Exposure, except for participations which will be reduced or
extinguished (as applicable) upon payment to Selling Lender of an amount equal
to the portion of the Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure being sold by such
Selling Lender.  Each Buying Lender
hereby acknowledges and agrees that, except for each Selling Lender’s
representations and warranties contained in the foregoing sentence, each such
Buying Lender is buying such interest without recourse to the Selling Lender
and has entered into its Commitment and Acceptance with respect to such
increase on the basis of its own independent investigation and has not relied
upon, and will not rely upon, any explicit or implicit written or oral
representation, warranty or other statement of the Lenders or the Global
Administrative Agent concerning the authorization, execution, legality,
validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents. 
The U.S. Borrower hereby agrees to compensate each Selling Lender for
all losses, expenses and liabilities incurred by such Selling Lender in
connection with the sale and assignment of any Eurocurrency Rate Loan hereunder
on the terms and in the manner as set forth in Section 3.4.

 

2.5  Method of Borrowing
Advances.

 

(a)  Syndicated Global Advances.  The Global Administrative Agent shall,
promptly upon receipt of a Syndicated Global Advance Borrowing Notice, notify
each Syndicated Global Lender of such Syndicated Global Advance Borrowing
Notice and, not later than such time as is reasonably requested by the Global
Administrative Agent on each Borrowing Date, each Syndicated Global Lender
shall make available its Syndicated Global Loan or Loans, in funds immediately
available to the Global Administrative Agent at its address specified pursuant
hereto, unless the Global Administrative Agent has notified the Syndicated
Global Lenders that such Loan is to be made available to a Global Borrower at
the Global Administrative Agent’s Eurocurrency Payment Office, in which case
each Syndicated Global Lender shall make available its Syndicated Global Loan
or Loans, in funds immediately

 

37

 

available to the Global
Administrative Agent at its Eurocurrency Payment Office, not later than 4:00
p.m. (local time in the city of the Global Administrative Agent’s Eurocurrency
Payment Office) in the Agreed Currency designated by the Global Administrative
Agent.  The Global Administrative Agent
will promptly make the funds so received from the Syndicated Global Lenders
available to the relevant Global Borrower.

 

(b)  Syndicated Canadian Advances.  Subject to any alternate procedures set forth
in the Syndicated Canadian Addendum, the Global Administrative Agent shall,
promptly upon receipt of a Syndicated Canadian Borrowing Notice, notify each
relevant Syndicated Canadian Bank of such Syndicated Canadian Borrowing Notice
and, not later than such local time as is reasonably requested by the Global
Administrative Agent on each Borrowing Date, each such Syndicated Canadian Bank
shall make available its Syndicated Canadian Loan(s), in funds immediately
available in Canadian Dollars, to the Global Administrative Agent at its
address specified pursuant to Article XIV hereof.  The Global Administrative Agent will promptly
make the funds so received from the Syndicated Canadian Banks available to the
Canadian Borrower.

 

2.6  Method of Selecting

shall select the Type of Syndicated Global Advance or Syndicated Canadian
Advance and, in the case of each Eurocurrency Rate Advance or CDOR Advance, the
Interest Period and permitted currency applicable to each Syndicated Global
Advance, Syndicated Canadian Advance and CDOR Advance from time to time.

 

(i)  Syndicated
Global Advances.  Each Global
Borrower shall give the applicable office of the Global Administrative Agent or
its applicable Affiliate (in each case as previously directed by the Global
Administrative Agent to such Global Borrower) irrevocable notice (a “Syndicated Global Advance Borrowing Notice”), at its
applicable office as previously specified to such Borrower, not later than the
applicable time described in Schedule I, specifying:  (i) the Borrowing Date of such Advance (which
shall be a Business Day); (ii) the aggregate amount of such Advance; (iii) the
Type of Advance selected and (iv) in the case of each Eurocurrency Rate
Advance, the Interest Period and Agreed Currency applicable thereto.  Each Syndicated Global Advance in an Agreed
Currency other than Dollars must be a Eurocurrency Rate Advance; provided that
each Syndicated Global Advance in euro must be a Eurocurrency Rate Advance
based on EURIBOR.  Each Syndicated Global
Advance in Canadian Dollars shall only be a Eurocurrency Rate Advance.  There shall be no more than ten (10) Interest
Periods in effect with respect to all of the Syndicated Global Advances to any
one Global Borrower at any time.  Each
Floating Rate Advance shall bear interest from and including the date of the
making of such Advance to (but not including) the date of repayment thereof at
the applicable Floating Rate, changing when and as such Floating Rate
changes.  Changes in the rate of interest
on that portion of any Syndicated Global Advance maintained as a Floating Rate Loan
will take effect simultaneously with each change in the Alternate Base Rate or
Canadian Prime Rate, as applicable.  Each
Eurocurrency Rate Advance shall bear interest from and including the first day
of the Interest Period applicable

 

38

 

thereto
to (but not including) the last day of such Interest Period at the interest
rate determined as applicable to such Eurocurrency Rate Advance.

than the applicable time described in Schedule I, specifying:  (i) the Borrowing Date of such Advance (which
shall be a Business Day); (ii) the aggregate amount of such Advance; (iii) the
Type of Advance selected; (iv) in the case of each CDOR Advance and
Eurocurrency Rate Advance, the Interest Period applicable thereto and (v) the
permitted currency applicable thereto. 
Each Syndicated Canadian Advance shall be a CDOR Advance denominated in
Canadian Dollars, Eurocurrency Rate Advance denominated in Dollars or Canadian
Dollars, Base Rate Advance denominated in Dollars or a Canadian Prime Rate
Advance denominated in Canadian Dollars. 
There shall be no more than ten (10) Interest Periods in effect with
respect to all of the Syndicated Canadian Advances at any time.  Each Canadian Prime Rate Advance shall bear
interest from and including the date of the making of such Advance to (but not
including) the date of repayment thereof at the applicable Canadian Prime Rate,
changing when and as such Canadian Prime Rate changes.  Each Syndicated Canadian Advance which is a
Base Rate Advance shall bear interest from and including the date of the making
of such Advance to (but not including) the date of repayment thereof at the
applicable Alternate Base Rate, changing when and as such Alternate Base Rate
changes.  Each Syndicated Canadian
Advance which is a CDOR Advance shall be discounted over the relevant Interest
Period at CDOR.  Each Syndicated Canadian
Advance which is a Eurocurrency Rate Advance shall bear interest from and
including the first day of the Interest Period applicable thereto to (but not
including) the last day of such Interest Period at the interest rate determined
as applicable to such Eurocurrency Rate Advance.

2.8  Method of Selecting Types and Interest
Periods for Conversion and Continuation of Syndicated Global Advances,
Syndicated Canadian Advances and Swing Line Loans.

 

(A)  Right to Convert.  The applicable Borrower may elect from time
to time, subject to the provisions of Section 2.6, Section 2.7
and this Section 2.8, to convert all or any part of an Advance of
any Type into any other Type or Types of Advance; provided that any
conversion of any Fixed Rate Advance or Fixed Rate Loan shall be made on, and
only on, the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

 

(B)  Automatic Conversion and Continuation.  Floating Rate Loans shall continue as
Floating Rate Loans of the same Type unless and until such Floating Rate Loans
are converted into Fixed Rate Loans. 
Fixed Rate Loans shall continue as Fixed Rate Loans until the end of the
then applicable Interest Period therefor, at which time such Fixed Rate Loans
(other than Fixed Rate Loans in Agreed Currencies other than Dollars) shall be
automatically converted into Base Rate Loans unless the applicable Borrower
shall have given the Global Administrative Agent notice in accordance with Section 2.8(D)
requesting that, at the end of such Interest Period, such Fixed Rate Loans
continue as a Fixed Rate Loan.  Fixed
Rate Loans, including, without limitation, Swing Line Loans, in a currency

41

 

unless the applicable
Borrower notifies the Global Administrative Agent otherwise as provided herein.

 

(C)  No Conversion Post-Default.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in Section 2.8(A) or Section 2.8(B), no
Syndicated Global Loan, Swing Line Loan or Syndicated Canadian Loan may be
converted into or continued as a Fixed Rate Loan except with the consent of the
Required Lenders when any Default has occurred and is continuing; provided
that, absent such consent, any such Syndicated Global Loan, Swing Line Loan
or Syndicated Canadian Loan which is a Eurocurrency Rate Loan in a currency
other than Dollars or Canadian Dollars shall, upon the expiration of the
relevant Interest Period then applicable thereto, bear interest for each
subsequent day at a per annum rate equal to the rate applicable to Eurocurrency
Rate Loans to the relevant Borrower for such currency for an Interest Period of
one month.

 

(D)  Conversion/Continuation Notice.  The applicable Borrower shall give the Global
Administrative Agent irrevocable notice (a “Conversion/Continuation
Notice”) of each conversion of a Floating Rate Loan into a Fixed
Rate Loan or continuation of a Fixed Rate Loan not later than the time prior to
the date of the requested conversion or continuation which is consistent with
the requisite time and notice required in connection with Section 2.6(a),
specifying:  (1) the requested date
(which shall be a Business Day) of such conversion or continuation; (2) the
amount and Type of the Syndicated Global Loan, Swing Line Loan or Syndicated
Canadian Loan to be converted or continued; and (3) the amounts of Fixed Rate
Loan(s) into which such Syndicated Global Loan, Swing Line Loan or Syndicated
Canadian Loan is to be converted or continued, the applicable permitted
currency and the duration of the Interest Periods applicable thereto.  If no such notice is given with respect to a
Fixed Rate Loan (other than CDOR Loans) in a currency other than Dollars, the
Interest Period applicable to the automatic continuation of such Loan shall be
one month.

 

(E)  Limitations on Conversions.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, at the election of the applicable Borrowers under this Section 2.8,
(x) Eurocurrency Rate Advances in an Agreed Currency may be converted and/or
continued as Eurocurrency Rate Advances only in the same Agreed Currency, (y)
U.K. Swing Line Loans in a U.K. Swing Line Currency may be converted and/or
continued as U.K. Swing Line Loans only in the same U.K. Swing Line Currency
and (z) Syndicated Canadian Loans in a particular permitted currency may be
converted and/or continued as Syndicated Canadian Loans only in the same currency.

 

2.9  Swing Line Loans.

 

2.9.1  USD Swing Line Loans.  (a)  Amount
of USD Swing Line Loans.  Upon the
satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Sections 4.1 and 4.2,
from and including the date of this Agreement and prior to the Termination
Date, the Global Swing Line Lender agrees, on the terms and conditions set
forth in this Agreement, to make USD Swing Line Loans in Dollars to the U.S.
Borrower from time to time in an amount not to exceed in the aggregate at any
one time outstanding the lesser of (i) $25,000,000 or (ii) the amount by which
the Aggregate Commitment exceeds the sum of the outstanding principal Dollar
Amount of Syndicated Global Advances, Bid Rate Advances, Swing Line Loans and
Syndicated Canadian Advances at such time. 
Each USD Swing Line Loan shall be in the applicable minimum amounts
specified in Schedule II (or such lesser amount as may be agreed to by the
Global Swing Line Lender) or an

 

42

 

integral multiple
thereof as specified in Schedule II (or such lesser amount as may be
agreed to by the Global Swing Line Lender) in excess thereof, and all interest
payable on the USD Swing Line Loans shall be payable to the Global Swing Line
Lender for the account of the Global Swing Line Lender.

 

(b)  Borrowing Notice; Interest on USD Swing
Line Loans.  The U.S. Borrower shall
deliver to the Global Administrative Agent and the Global Swing Line Lender a
notice (a “USD Swing Line Borrowing Notice”)
signed by it not later than the applicable time and to the applicable location
described in Schedule II on the Borrowing Date of each USD Swing Line Loan
specifying (i) the applicable Borrowing Date (which shall be a Business Day)
and (ii) the aggregate amount of the requested USD Swing Line Loan.  All USD Swing Line Loans shall bear interest
at the election of the U.S. Borrower at a per annum rate equal to (x) the Prime
Rate or (y) the sum of (a) a money market rate or fixed rate of interest for an
interest period as agreed to by the Global Swing Line Lender and the U.S.
Borrower (which interest period shall not in any event exceed thirty (30) days)
plus (b) the Applicable Margin then in effect.

 

(c)  Making of USD Swing Line Loans.  Promptly after receipt of the Borrowing
Notice under Section 2.9.1(b), the Global Administrative Agent
shall notify the Global Swing Line Lender of the requested USD Swing Line
Loan.  Not later than 3:00 p.m. (New York
time) on the applicable Borrowing Date, the Global Swing Line Lender shall make

Outstanding USD Swing Line Loans may be repaid from the proceeds of
Syndicated Global Advances or Bid Rate Advances.  Any repayment or prepayment of a USD Swing
Line Loan shall be accompanied by accrued interest thereon and, subject to Section 2.9.1(a),

make Syndicated Global Loans pursuant to Section 2.1 and this Section 2.9.1(d)
to repay such USD Swing Line Loan shall be unconditional, continuing,
irrevocable and absolute and shall not be affected by any circumstances,
including the inability of the U.S. Borrower to satisfy the conditions
precedent set forth in Article IV or the occurrence or continuance
of a Default.  In the event that any

Agent of any amount due under this Section 2.9.1(d), the Global Administrative

Syndicated Global Lender or such obligation is otherwise fully satisfied.  In addition to the foregoing, if for any
reason any Syndicated Global Lender fails to make payment to the Global
Administrative Agent of any amount due under this Section 2.9.1(d),
such Syndicated Global Lender shall be deemed, at the option of the Global
Administrative Agent, to have unconditionally and irrevocably purchased from
the Global Swing Line Lender, without recourse or warranty, an undivided
interest in and participation in the applicable USD Swing Line Loan in the
amount of the Syndicated Global Loan such Syndicated Global Lender was required
to make pursuant to this Section 2.9.1(d), and such interest and
participation may be recovered from such Syndicated Global Lender together with

applicable minimum amounts specified in Schedule II (or such lesser amount
as may be agreed to by the Global Swing Line Lender) or an integral multiple
thereof as specified in Schedule II (or such lesser amount as may be
agreed to by the Global Swing Line Lender) in excess thereof, and all interest
payable on the Canadian Swing Line Loans shall be payable to the Global Swing
Line Lender for the account of the Global Swing Line Lender.  In no event shall the number of Interest
Periods under Canadian Swing Line Loans outstanding at any time be greater than
five (5).

 

(b)  Borrowing Notice; Interest on Canadian

Borrower shall (unless such Borrower and the Global Swing Line Lender agree

Canadian Swing Line Loans, if any, made by virtue of the relevant Borrower’s
overdraft facilities with the Global Swing Line Lender, unless the Global
Administrative Agent upon the request of or with the consent of the Required

the principal and interest otherwise payable to such Syndicated Global Lender
hereunder until the Global Administrative Agent receives such payment from such
Syndicated Global Lender or such obligation is otherwise fully satisfied.  In addition to the foregoing, if for any
reason any Syndicated Global Lender fails to make payment to the Global
Administrative Agent of any amount due under this Section 2.9.2(f),
such Syndicated Global Lender shall be deemed, at the option of the Global
Administrative Agent, to have unconditionally and irrevocably purchased from
the Global Administrative Agent, without recourse or warranty, an undivided

the Global Administrative Agent shall in turn promptly notify (A) each
Syndicated Global Lender that has made an offer as described in Section 2.10(b)(ii)

Promptly after each Bid Rate Advance, the Global Administrative Agent

50

 

(vi)  Notwithstanding
the other provisions of this Section 2.10(b), the applicable Global
Borrower may elect at its own discretion to assume the responsibilities of the
Global Administrative Agent in connection with the solicitation and acceptance
of Bid Rate Loans as described in this section. 
In the event that the applicable Global Borrower makes the election
described in this subsection, all notices to be given by such Borrower to the
Global Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.10(b) shall
be given by such Borrower directly to the Global Administrative Agent and the
Syndicated Global Lenders, all notices to be given by the Global Administrative
Agent to the Syndicated Global Lenders pursuant to this Section 2.10(b)
shall be given by such Borrower to the Syndicated Global Lenders, and all
notices to be given by the Syndicated Global Lenders to the Global
Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.10(b) shall be
given by the Syndicated Global Lenders to such Borrower and the Global
Administrative Agent.  In addition, any
fee payable to the Global Administrative Agent in connection with the Bid Rate
Loans in connection with such Bid Rate Loans solicited and accepted by either
Global Borrower pursuant to this clause (vi) is hereby
waived.

 

(c)  Each Bid Rate Advance shall be in an aggregate
amount not less than the Equivalent Amount of $10,000,000 in the applicable
currency or an integral multiple of approximately $1,000,000 in the applicable
currency in excess thereof, and, following the making of each Bid Rate Advance,
the Borrowers shall be in compliance with the limitation set forth in the
proviso to the first sentence of Section 2.10(a).

 

(d)  Each acceptance by the applicable Global
Borrower pursuant to Section 2.10(b)(iii)(y) of the offers made in
response to a Bid Rate Advance Borrowing Notice shall be treated as an
acceptance of such offers in ascending order of the rates or margins, as
applicable, at which the same were made but if, as a result thereof, two or
more offers at the same such rate or margin would be partially accepted, then
the amounts of the Bid Rate Loans in respect of which such offers are accepted
shall be treated as being the amounts which bear the same proportion to one
another as the respective amounts of the Bid Rate Loans so offered bear to one
another but, in each case, rounded as the Global Administrative Agent (or the
applicable Global Borrower in the event such Borrower runs the bid rate process
under clause (b)(vi) above) may consider necessary to ensure that the
Equivalent Amount of each such Bid Rate Loan is approximately $500,000 or an
integral multiple thereof.

 

(e)  Within the limits and on the conditions set
forth in this Section 2.10, each Global Borrower may from time to

(f)  The applicable Global Borrower shall repay to
the Global Administrative Agent, for the account of each Syndicated Global
Lender which has made a Bid Rate Loan to it, on the maturity date of such Bid

repayment of such Bid Rate Loan in the related Bid Rate Advance Borrowing
Notice), or, if earlier, the acceleration of the Obligations pursuant to Section 8.1,
the then unpaid principal amount of such Bid Rate Loan.  No Borrower shall have the right to prepay
any principal amount of any Bid Rate Loan without the consent of the applicable
Syndicated Global Lender.

 

51

 

(g)  The applicable Global Borrower shall pay
interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Bid Rate Loan made to it, from
the date of such Bid Rate Loan to the date the principal amount of such Bid
Rate Loan is repaid in full, at the rate of interest for such Bid Rate Loan
specified by the Syndicated Global Lender making such Bid Rate Loan in the
related notice submitted by such Syndicated Global Lender pursuant to Section 2.10(b)(ii),
payable on the interest payment date or dates specified by such Borrower for
such Bid Rate Loan in the related Bid Rate Advance Borrowing Notice and on any
date on which such Bid Rate Loan is prepaid, whether by acceleration or
otherwise.  In the event the term of any
Bid Rate Loan shall be longer than three months, interest thereon shall be
payable not less frequently than once each three-month period during such
term.  Unless otherwise specified in the
applicable Bid Rate Advance Borrowing Notice, interest on Bid Rate Advances
shall be calculated (a) for actual days elapsed on the basis of a 365-day year
or, when appropriate, 366-day year for Bid Rate Advances made pursuant to an
Indexed Rate Auction and (b) for actual days elapsed on the basis of a 360-day
year for Bid Rate Advances made pursuant to an Absolute Rate Auction.

 

(h)  Except as provided in clause (b)(vi) above, in connection with each Bid Rate Loan, the
applicable Global Borrower shall pay to the Global Administrative Agent the fee
with respect thereto set forth in the relevant fee letter dated as of even date
herewith between the Global Borrowers, J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. and the
Global Administrative Agent.

 

2.11  Default Rate.  Notwithstanding anything contained herein to
the contrary, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other
amount payable by any Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at
stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear
interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in
the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2% plus the rate otherwise
applicable to such Loan as provided herein or (ii) in the case of any other
amount (other than as set forth in the following clause (iii)), 2% plus the
rate applicable to Base Rate Advances as provided herein or (iii) in the case
of any Syndicated Canadian Loan or Canadian Swing Line Loan, 2% plus the rate
applicable to Canadian Prime Rate Loans.

 

2.12  Method of Payment.  (i) 
All payments of principal, interest, and fees hereunder to the Global
Administrative Agent shall be made, without setoff, deduction or counterclaim
(a) at the Global Administrative Agent’s office at the applicable location at
which such Advance was made in immediately available funds with respect to
Advances denominated in Dollars and (b) in the Global Administrative Agent’s
applicable Eurocurrency Payment Office in immediately available funds with
respect to any Advance denominated in an Agreed Currency other than Dollars, in
each case, or at any other Lending Installation of the Global Administrative
Agent specified in writing (by 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the day before the
date when due) by the Global Administrative Agent to the applicable Borrower,
by 12:00 noon local time in New York, New York with respect to Advances
denominated in Dollars and 12:00 noon local time in the Global Administrative
Agent’s Eurocurrency Payment Office with respect to Advances denominated in an
Agreed Currency other than Dollars on the date when due and shall be made
ratably among the relevant Lenders (unless such amount is not to be shared
ratably in accordance with the terms hereof). 
Each Advance shall be repaid or prepaid in the currency in which it was
made (the “Advanced Currency”) in the amount
borrowed and interest payable thereon shall be paid in such Advanced
Currency.  Notwithstanding anything in
this Agreement, the obligation of any Borrower in respect of any Advance shall
not be discharged by an amount paid in any

 

52

 

currency other
than the Advanced Currency or at another location other than the location
designated by the Global Administrative Agent, whether pursuant to a judgment
or otherwise, to the extent the amount so paid, on prompt conversion into the
Advanced Currency and transfer to the relevant Lenders under normal banking
procedure, does not yield the amount of the Advanced Currency due under the
Loan Documents.  In the event that any
payment, whether pursuant to a judgment or otherwise, upon conversion and
transfer, does not result in payment of the amount of the Advanced Currency due
under the Loan Documents, such Lender shall have an independent cause of action
against each of the Borrowers for the currency deficit.  Each payment delivered to the Global
Administrative Agent for the account of any Lender shall be delivered promptly
by the Global Administrative Agent to such Lender in the same type of funds
which the Global Administrative Agent received at its address specified
pursuant to Article XIV or at any Lending Installation specified in
a notice received by the Global Administrative Agent from such Lender.

 

(ii)  All payments to be made by the applicable
Borrowers hereunder in respect of any Swing Line Loans and Syndicated Canadian
Loans shall be made in the currencies in which such Loans are denominated and
in funds immediately available, at the Global Administrative Agent’s office or
Global Swing Line Lender’s office (as applicable) office from which such Loan
was made not later than 12:00 noon (local time) on the date on which such
payment shall become due.

 

(iii)  Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of
this Section, if, after the making of any Advance or Loan in any currency other
than Dollars or euro, currency control or exchange regulations are imposed in
the country which issues such currency with the result that different types of
such currency (the “New Currency”) are introduced and the type of currency in
which the Advance was made (the “Original Currency”) no longer exists or the
applicable Borrower is not able to make payment to the Global Administrative
Agent or the Global Swing Line Lender, as applicable, in such Original
Currency, then all payments to be made by the applicable Borrower hereunder in
such currency shall be made in such amount and such type of the New Currency or
Dollars as shall be equivalent to the amount of such payment otherwise due
hereunder in the Original Currency, it being the intention of the parties
hereto that the Borrowers take all risks of the imposition of any such currency
control or exchange regulations.  In
addition, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section, if, after
the making of any Advance or Loan in any currency other than Dollars or euro,
any applicable Borrower is not able to make payment to the Global
Administrative Agent or the Global Swing Line Lender, as applicable, in the
type of currency in which such Advance or Loan was made because of the
imposition of any such currency control or exchange regulation, then such
Advance or Loan shall instead be repaid when due in Dollars in a principal
amount equal to the Dollar Amount (as of the date of repayment) of such
Advance.

 

2.13  Notes, Telephonic Notices.  Any Lender may request that the Loans made by
it each be evidenced by the applicable Notes to evidence such Lender’s
Loans.  In such event, each applicable Borrower
shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender such Note(s) for such Loans
payable to the order of such Lender. 
Thereafter, such Loans evidenced by such Note(s) and interest thereon
shall at all times be represented by one or more Notes, except to the extent
that any such Lender subsequently returns any such Note for cancellation.  Each Borrower authorizes the applicable
Lenders and the Global Administrative Agent to extend Advances,

 

53

 

effect selections
of Types of Advances and to transfer funds based on telephonic notices made by
any person or persons that the Global Administrative Agent or Lender in good
faith believes to be acting on behalf of such Borrower.  Each Borrower agrees to deliver promptly to
the Global Administrative Agent a written confirmation, signed by an Authorized
Officer, if such confirmation is requested by the Global Administrative Agent
or any Lender, of each telephonic notice. 
If the written confirmation differs in any material respect from the
action taken by the Global Administrative Agent and Lenders, (i) the telephonic
notice shall govern absent manifest error and (ii) the Global Administrative
Agent or Lender, as applicable, shall promptly notify the Authorizing Officer
who provided such confirmation of such difference.

 

2.14  Promise to Pay; Interest and Fees; Interest Payment Dates; Interest
and Fee Basis; Loan Accounts.

 

(A)  Promise to Pay.  Each Borrower unconditionally promises to pay
when due the principal amount of each Loan made to it and all other Obligations
incurred by it, and to pay all unpaid interest accrued thereon, in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement.

 

(B)  Interest Payment Dates.  Interest accrued on each Floating Rate Loan,
each Canadian Prime Rate Loan and USD Swing Line Loan shall be payable on each
Payment Date, commencing with the first such date to occur after the date
hereof, at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) and, with respect to
any USD Swing Line Loans on any date on which a USD Swing Line Loan is prepaid,
whether due to acceleration or otherwise. 
Interest accrued on each Fixed Rate Loan (other than CDOR Loans which
are governed by the Syndicated Canadian Addendum) shall be payable on the last
day of its applicable Interest Period, on any date on which the Fixed Rate Loan
is prepaid, whether by acceleration or otherwise, and at maturity.  Interest accrued on each Fixed Rate Loan
having an Interest Period longer than three months shall also be payable on the
last day of each three-month interval during such Interest Period.  Interest accrued on each Bid Rate Loan shall
be payable as provided in Section 2.10(g).  Interest accrued on the principal balance of
all other Obligations shall be payable in arrears (i) upon repayment thereof in
full, (ii) if not theretofore paid in full, at the time such other Obligation
becomes due and payable (whether by acceleration or otherwise) and (iii) if not
theretofore paid in full, on demand, commencing on the first such day following
the date such Obligation became payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement
or the other Loan Documents.

 

(C)  Fees.  (i) 
The relevant Borrowers shall, or shall cause their respective
Subsidiaries to, pay to the Global Administrative Agent, for the account of
each relevant Lender in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares and Syndicated
Canadian Pro Rata Shares (as appropriate), on arrangements satisfactory to the
U.S. Borrower and the Global Administrative Agent, a facility fee accruing at
the rate of the Applicable Facility Fee per annum from and after the date
hereof until the Termination Date on the amounts of the Aggregate Commitment in
effect from time to time (calculated without regard to amounts
outstanding).  All such facility fees
payable under this clause (C) shall be payable quarterly in arrears on
the first Business Day of each calendar quarter occurring after the date hereof
and, in addition, on the Termination Date.

 

54

 

(ii)  Utilization Fee.  If, at the end of any fiscal quarter, the
average daily aggregate principal amount of outstanding Syndicated Global Loans
and Syndicated Canadian Loans during such quarter exceeded fifty percent (50%)
of the Aggregate Commitment, the relevant Borrowers shall, or shall cause their
respective Subsidiaries to, pay to the Global Administrative Agent, for the
ratable account of each relevant Lender in accordance with its Pro Rata Share
and Syndicated Canadian Pro Rata Share (as appropriate) on arrangements satisfactory
to the U.S. Borrower and the Global Administrative Agent, a utilization fee at
a rate per annum equal to the applicable Utilization Fee set forth in Section 2.6(b)
on the average daily outstanding principal balance of the Syndicated Global
Loans and Syndicated Canadian Loans during such quarter, payable quarterly in
arrears on the first Payment Date to occur in each calendar quarter hereafter
and on the Termination Date or earlier termination of the Commitments.

 

(D)  Interest and Fee Basis.  (i)  Interest
on all Loans (other than Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in Pounds
Sterling, Base Rate Loans with respect to which interest is calculated by
reference to the Alternate Base Rate and USD Swing Line Loans), including all
Syndicated Canadian Loans and all fees shall be calculated for actual days
elapsed on the basis of a 360-day year (except as provided otherwise in the
Syndicated Canadian Addendum).  Interest
on (a) Base Rate Loans with respect to which interest is calculated by
reference to the Alternate Base Rate and USD Swing Line Loans and (b)
Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in Pounds Sterling and Syndicated Canadian
Loans shall in each case be calculated for actual days elapsed on the basis of
a 365-day year or, when appropriate, 366-day year; provided that Stamping Fees
shall be calculated for actual days elapsed on the basis of a 365-day
year.  Interest shall be payable for the
day an Obligation is incurred but not for the day of any payment on the amount
paid if payment is received by the times and in the offices required under Section 2.12.  If any payment of principal of or interest on
a Loan or any payment of any other Obligations shall become due on a day which
is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business
Day and, in the case of a principal payment, such extension of time shall be
included in computing interest in connection with such payment.

 

(ii)  For purposes of the Interest Act
(Canada), (a) whenever any interest or fee under this Agreement or any
of the other Loan Documents is calculated using a rate based on a year of 360
days or 365 days, as the case may be, the rate determined pursuant to such
calculation, when expressed as an annual rate, is equivalent to (1) the
applicable rate based on a year of 360 days or 365 days, as the case may be,
(2) multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which the
period for which such interest or fee is payable (or compounded) ends, and (3)
divided by 360 or 365, as the case may be, (b) the principle of deemed
reinvestment of interest does not apply to any interest calculation under this
Agreement, and (iii) the rates of interest stipulated in this Agreement are
intended to be nominal rates and are not effective rates or yields.

 

(E)  Loan Account.  Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with
its usual practice an account or accounts (a “Loan Account”)
evidencing the Obligations of the Borrowers to such Lender owing to such Lender
from time to time, including the amount of principal and interest payable and
paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.

 

(F)  Entries Binding.  The entries made in the Register and each
Loan Account shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest
error, unless any Borrower objects to

 

55

 

information
contained in the Register and each Loan Account within thirty (30) days of such
Borrower’s receipt of such information.

 

2.15  Notification of Advances,
Interest Rates, Prepayments and Aggregate Commitment Reductions.  Promptly after receipt thereof, the Global
Administrative Agent will notify each relevant Lender of the contents of each
Aggregate Commitment reduction notice, Borrowing Notice,
Continuation/Conversion Notice and repayment notice received by it
hereunder.  The Global Administrative
Agent will notify each relevant Lender of the interest rate applicable to each
Fixed Rate Loan promptly upon determination of such interest rate.

 

2.16  Lending Installations.  Each Lender may book its Loans at any Lending
Installation selected by such Lender and may change its Lending Installation
from time to time.  All terms of this
Agreement shall apply to any such Lending Installation and any Notes shall be
deemed held by each Lender for the benefit of such Lending Installation.  Each Lender may, by written or facsimile
notice to the Global Administrative Agent and the U.S. Borrower, designate a
Lending Installation through which Loans will be made by it and for whose
account Loan payments are to be made.

 

2.17  Non-Receipt of
Funds by the Global Administrative Agent.  Unless a Borrower or a Lender, as the case
may be, notifies the Global Administrative Agent prior to the date (or time, in
the case of a Floating Rate Loan) on which it is scheduled to make payment to
the Global Administrative Agent of (i) in the case of a Lender, the proceeds of
a Loan or (ii) in the case of a Borrower, a payment of principal, interest or
fees to the Global Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant
Lenders, that it does not intend to make such payment, the Global
Administrative Agent may assume that such payment has been made.  The Global Administrative Agent may, but
shall not be obligated to, make the amount of such payment available to the
intended recipient in reliance upon such assumption.  If such Lender or Borrower, as the case may
be, has not in fact made such payment to the Global Administrative Agent, the
recipient of such payment shall, on demand by the Global Administrative Agent,
repay to the Global Administrative Agent the amount so made available together
with interest thereon in respect of each day during the period commencing on
the date such amount was so made available by the Global Administrative Agent
until the date the Global Administrative Agent recovers such amount at a rate
per annum equal to (i) in the case of payment by a Lender (other than in
respect of any Loan denominated in Canadian Dollars), the Federal Funds
Effective Rate for such day or (ii) in the case of payment by a Lender in respect
of any Loan denominated in Canadian Dollars, at the one-month CDOR for such
day, or (iii) in the case of payment by a Borrower, the interest rate
applicable to the relevant Loan (including without limitation pursuant to Section 2.11
if applicable).

 

2.18  Termination Date.  This Agreement shall be effective until the
Termination Date.  Notwithstanding the
termination of this Agreement on the Termination Date, until all of the
Obligations (other than contingent indemnity and reimbursement obligations, to
the extent such obligations have not accrued) shall have been fully and
indefeasibly paid and satisfied and all financing arrangements under the Loan
Documents among the Borrowers and the Lenders shall have been terminated, all
of the rights and remedies under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents
shall survive.

 

56

 

2.19  Judgment Currency.  If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in
any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due from a Borrower hereunder or
under the Syndicated Canadian Addendum in the currency expressed to be payable
herein or under the Syndicated Canadian Addendum (the “specified currency”)
into another currency, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that
they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at
which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Global Administrative
Agent could purchase the specified currency with such other currency at the
Global Administrative Agent’s main office in New York, New York on the Business
Day preceding that on which the final, non-appealable judgment is given.  The obligations of each Borrower in respect
of any sum due to any Lender or the Global Administrative hereunder or under
the Syndicated Canadian Addendum shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a
currency other than the specified currency, be discharged only to the extent
that on the Business Day following receipt by such Lender or the Global
Administrative Agent (as the case may be) of any sum adjudged to be so due in
such other currency such Lender or the Global Administrative Agent (as the case
may be) may in accordance with normal, reasonable banking procedures purchase
the specified currency with such other currency.  If the amount of the specified currency so
purchased is less than the sum originally due to such Lender or the Global
Administrative Agent, as the case may be, in the specified currency, each
Borrower agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, as a
separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such
Lender or the Global Administrative Agent, as the case may be, against such
loss, and if the amount of the specified currency so purchased exceeds (a) the
sum originally due to any Lender or the Global Administrative Agent, as the
case may be, in the specified currency and (b) any amounts shared with other
Lenders as a result of allocations of such excess as a disproportionate payment
to such Lender under Section 11.2, such Lender or the Global Administrative
Agent, as the case may be, agrees to remit such excess to such Borrower.

 

2.20  Intentionally Omitted.

 

2.21  Canadian Borrower as
Borrower.  The U.S. Borrower
may at any time add as a party to this Agreement the Canadian Borrower to be
the “Canadian Borrower” in respect of Canadian Swing Line Loans and Canadian
Syndicated Loans, in each case by the execution and delivery to the Global
Administrative Agent of (a) a duly completed Assumption Letter by each of the
Canadian Borrower and the Canadian Guarantor, with the written consent of the
U.S. Borrower at the foot thereof (it being understood and agreed that if the
Canadian Guarantor does not exist at the time of the Canadian Borrower becoming
a party hereto, the U.S. Borrower shall cause the Canadian Guarantor, within 60
days of its formation, to execute and deliver a duly completed Assumption
Letter to the Global Administrative Agent, accompanied by the other instruments
and documents in respect of the Canadian Guarantor contemplated by the following
clause (b)) and (b) any other instruments and documents required by Section 4.3
hereof (in the case of the Canadian Borrower) and comparable instruments and
documents for the Canadian Guarantor. 
Upon such execution, delivery and consent, each of the Canadian Borrower
and the Canadian Guarantor shall for all purposes be a party hereto as the
Canadian Borrower and the Canadian Guarantor, respectively, as fully as if it
had executed and delivered this Agreement.

 

2.22  Termination as Borrower.  So long as the principal of and interest on
any Loans or Advances made to any Foreign Borrower under this Agreement or the
Syndicated Canadian Addendum shall have been repaid or paid in full and all
other obligations of such Foreign

 

57

 

Borrower under
this Agreement and the Syndicated Canadian Addendum shall have been fully
performed, the U.S. Borrower may, by not less than five (5) Business Days’
prior notice to the Global Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify
the Lenders thereof), terminate such Foreign Borrower’s rights as a “Borrower”.

 

ARTICLE III  CHANGE IN CIRCUMSTANCES

 

3.1  Yield Protection.  If any law or any governmental or
quasi-governmental rule, regulation, policy, guideline or directive (whether or
not having the force of law) adopted after the date of this Agreement and
having general applicability to all banks within the jurisdiction in which such
Lender operates (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, the effect of and
phasing in of capital requirements or other regulations or guidelines passed
prior to the date of this Agreement), or any interpretation or application
thereof by any Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or
application thereof, or the compliance of any Lender therewith,

 

(i)  subjects
any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation to any tax, duty, charge or
withholding on or from payments due from any Borrower (excluding Excluded
Taxes), or changes the basis of taxation of payments to any Lender in respect
of its Loans or other amounts due it hereunder, provided, that this clause
(i) shall not apply with respect to any Taxes to which Section 3.5
applies, or

 

(ii)  imposes or
increases or deems applicable any reserve, assessment, insurance charge, special
deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the
account of, or credit extended by, any Lender or any applicable Lending
Installation with respect to its Fixed Rate Loans, or

 

(iii)  imposes
any other condition the result of which is to increase the cost to any Lender
or any applicable Lending Installation of making, funding or maintaining the
Fixed Rate Loans or reduces any amount received by any Lender or any applicable
Lending Installation in connection with Fixed Rate Loans, or requires any
Lender or any applicable Lending Installation to make any payment calculated by
reference to the amount of Loans held or interest or fee received by it, by an
amount deemed material by such Lender;

 

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase
the cost to that Lender of making, renewing or maintaining its Loans or to
reduce any amount received under this Agreement, then, within 15 days after
receipt by the relevant Borrower of written demand by such Lender pursuant to Section 3.6,
such Borrower shall pay such Lender that portion of such increased expense
incurred or reduction in an amount received which such Lender determines is
attributable to making, funding and maintaining its Loans and its Commitment or
Syndicated Canadian Commitment.

 

3.2  Changes in Capital
Adequacy Regulations.  If a
Lender determines (i) the amount of capital required or expected to be
maintained by such Lender, any Lending Installation of such Lender or any
corporation controlling such Lender is increased as a result of a “Change” (as
defined below), and (ii) such increase in capital will result in an increase in
the cost to such Lender of maintaining its Loans or its obligation to make
Loans hereunder, then, within 15 days

 

58

 

after receipt by
the relevant Borrower of written demand by such Lender pursuant to Section 3.6,
such Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount necessary to compensate for any
shortfall in the rate of return on the portion of such increased capital which
such Lender determines is attributable to this Agreement, its Loans or its
obligation to make Loans hereunder (after taking into account such Lender’s
policies as to capital adequacy).  “Change” means (i) any change after the date of this Agreement
in the “Risk-Based Capital Guidelines” (as defined below) excluding, for the
avoidance of doubt, the effect of any phasing in of such Risk-Based Capital
Guidelines or any other capital requirements, in each case passed prior to the
date hereof, or (ii) any adoption of or change in any other law, governmental
or quasi-governmental rule, regulation, policy, guideline, interpretation, or
directive (whether or not having the force of law) after the date of this
Agreement and having general applicability to all banks and financial
institutions within the jurisdiction in which such Lender operates which
affects the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by any
Lender or any Lending Installation or any corporation controlling any Lender.  “Risk-Based Capital
Guidelines” means (i) the risk-based capital guidelines in effect in
the United States on the date of this Agreement, including transition rules,
and (ii) the corresponding capital regulations promulgated by regulatory
authorities outside the United States or Canada (if applicable) implementing
the July 1988 report of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision
Entitled “International Convergence of Capital Measurement and Capital
Standards,” including transition rules, and any amendments to such regulations
adopted prior to the date of this Agreement and including, for the avoidance of
doubt, the recommendations set out in the report entitled ‘Basel II:  International Convergence of Capital
Measurement and Capital Standards:  A
Revised Framework’, which was published by the Basel Committee on Banking
Supervision on June 26, 2004 and the European Commission proposal (COM
(2004) 486) of July 14, 2004.

 

Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Section 3.2, the U.K. Borrower shall not be obliged
to make any increased payment pursuant to this Section 3.2 to the extent
that the relevant cost, increased cost, reduction or liability is compensated
for by any payment calculated in accordance with the Mandatory Cost or
represents Excluded Taxes.

 

3.3  Availability of Types of
Advances.  If (i) any Lender
determines that maintenance of any of its Fixed Rate Loans at a suitable
Lending Installation would violate any applicable law, rule, regulation or
directive, whether or not having the force of law, or (ii) the Required Lenders
with respect to Fixed Rate Advances or the Global Swing Line Lender with
respect to Swing Line Loans determine that (x) deposits of a type, currency and
maturity appropriate to match fund Fixed Rate Advances or Swing Line Loans, as
applicable, are not available or (y) the interest rate applicable to a Fixed
Rate Advance or Swing Line Loan does not accurately reflect the cost of making
or maintaining such a Fixed Rate Advance or Swing Line Loans, then the Global
Administrative Agent shall suspend the availability of Fixed Rate Advances or
such Swing Line Loans of the affected Type or in the affected currency and, in
the case of any occurrence set forth in clause (i), require any affected Fixed
Rate Advances or Swing Line Loans to be repaid or, in the case of Eurocurrency
Rate Loans in Dollars, at the option of the U.S. Borrower, converted to Base
Rate Advances or, in the case of any Loans to the Canadian Borrower, at the
option of the Canadian Borrower, converted to Canadian Prime Rate Advances.

 

3.4  Funding Indemnification.  If any payment of a Fixed Rate Advance, Fixed
Rate Swing Line Loan or Bid Rate Advance occurs on a date which is not the last
day of the

 

59

 

applicable Interest
Period in the case of a Fixed Rate Advance or Fixed Rate Swing Line Loans, or
the applicable maturity date in the case of a Bid Rate Advance, whether because
of acceleration, prepayment, assignment (to the extent such assignment is
effected pursuant to Section 3.8) or otherwise, or a Fixed Rate
Advance, Fixed Rate Swing Line Loan or Bid Rate Advance is not made or
continued on the date specified by any Borrower for any reason other than
default by the Lenders, the U.S. Borrower and such Borrower agrees to indemnify
each Lender for any loss or cost (including lost profits) incurred by it
resulting therefrom, including, without limitation, any loss or cost in
liquidating or employing deposits acquired to fund or maintain the Fixed Rate
Advance, Fixed Rate Swing Line Loan or Bid Rate Advance, as the case may be.

 

3.5  Taxes. 
(i)  Unless such deduction is
required by applicable law, all payments by any Borrower or any Guarantor to or
for the account of any Lender or the Global Administrative Agent hereunder or
under any Note shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any
and all Taxes.  If any Borrower or any
Guarantor shall be required by applicable law to deduct any Taxes from or in
respect of any sum payable hereunder to any Lender or the Global Administrative
Agent, then, except as otherwise specifically provided in this Section 3.5,
(a) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all
required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable
under this Section 3.5) such Lender or the Global Administrative
Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have
received had no such deductions been made, (b) such Borrower or Guarantor, as
applicable, shall make such deductions, (c) such Borrower or Guarantor, as
applicable, shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant authority in
accordance with applicable law and (d) such Borrower or Guarantor, as
applicable, shall furnish to the Global Administrative Agent the original or a
certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof or, in the case of a
deduction made under tax legislation in the United Kingdom or England and
Wales, evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Global Administrative Agent that
the deduction has been made.  Each
Syndicated Global Lender which is not otherwise a Qualifying Lender hereby
agrees to fund its Syndicated Global Loans to the U.K. Borrower through an
office, branch or Affiliate, if any, resident in the United Kingdom for United
Kingdom tax purposes.

 

(ii) In addition, except as otherwise specifically
provided in this Section 3.5, each Borrower and Guarantor hereby
agrees to pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes and any other
excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies which arise from any
payment made hereunder by the relevant Borrower or Guarantor to the relevant
Lender, or under any Note but excluding any such taxes, charges or levies in
respect of any assignment, sale or transfer or participation (but excluding any
participations and transfers pursuant to Section 2.2(E)) by any
Lender or the Global Administrative Agent or from the execution or delivery of,
or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any Note (“Other Taxes”).

 

(iii) Each Borrower and Guarantor hereby agree to
indemnify the Global Administrative Agent and each Lender for the full amount
of Taxes or Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes or Other
Taxes imposed on amounts payable under this Section 3.5) paid by
the Global Administrative Agent or such Lender and any liability (including
penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto;
provided that each Borrower and Guarantor shall not be required to so indemnify
to the extent any relevant amount is actually compensated for under any other
provision of this Agreement.  Payments
due under this

 

60

 

indemnification
shall be made within 30 days of the date the Global Administrative Agent or
such Lender makes demand therefor pursuant to Section 3.6.

 

(iv) At least five Business Days prior to the first
date on which interest or fees are payable hereunder for the account of any
Syndicated Global Lender, such Lender to the extent it is not incorporated
under the laws of the United States of America or a state thereof (each a “Non-U.S. Lender”) agrees that it will deliver to each of
the U.S. Borrower, each Guarantor and the Global Administrative Agent (1) two
duly completed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI, certifying in either case
that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement without
deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes or (2) in
the case of a Non-U.S. Lender that is fiscally transparent, a copy of IRS Form
W-8IMY together with the applicable accompanying forms, W-8 or W-9, as the case
may be, and certify that it is entitled to an exemption from United States
backup withholding tax (such certificate, an “Exemption
Certificate”).  Each Non-U.S.
Lender further undertakes to deliver to each of the U.S. Borrower and the
Global Administrative Agent (i) two renewals or additional copies of such form
(or any successor form) on or before the date that such form expires or becomes
obsolete, and (ii) after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the
most recent forms so delivered by it, such additional forms or amendments
thereto as may be reasonably requested by the U.S. Borrower, any Guarantor or
the Global Administrative Agent.  All
forms or amendments described in the preceding sentence shall certify that such
Lender is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement without deduction
or withholding of any United States federal income taxes, unless
an event (including without limitation any change in treaty, law or regulation)
has occurred prior to the date on which any such delivery would otherwise be
required which renders all such forms inapplicable or which would prevent such
Lender from duly completing and delivering any such form or amendment with
respect to it and such Lender advises the U.S. Borrower, the Guarantors and the
Global Administrative Agent that it is not capable of receiving payments
without any deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax.

 

(v) For any period during which a Non-U.S. Lender has
failed to provide the U.S. Borrower or the Guarantors with an appropriate form
or Exemption Certificate pursuant to clause (iv) above (unless such
failure is due to a change in treaty, law or regulation, or any change in the
interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority,
occurring subsequent to the date on which a form or Exemption Certificate
originally was required to be provided), such Non-U.S. Lender shall not be
entitled to indemnification under this Section 3.5 with respect to
Taxes imposed by the United States; provided that, should a Non-U.S.
Lender which is otherwise exempt from or subject to a reduced rate of
withholding tax become subject to Taxes because of its failure to deliver a
form or Exemption Certificate required under clause (iv), above, the
U.S. Borrower or the Guarantors shall take such steps as such Non-U.S. Lender
shall reasonably request to assist such Non-U.S. Lender to recover such Taxes.

 

(vi) The U.K. Borrower and/or any Guarantor is not
required to make an increased payment to the Global Administrative Agent or a
Lender under this Section 3.5 with respect to Taxes imposed, nor
any deductions required, by the United Kingdom in respect of a payment of
interest (including any items classified as interest by the relevant taxing
authority) on a Loan, if on the date on which the payment falls due:

 

61

 

(a)  the payment could have been
made to the relevant Lender without a deduction for Taxes if it was a Qualifying
Lender, but on that date that Lender is not or has ceased to be a Qualifying
Lender other than as a result of any change after the date it became a Lender
under this Agreement in (or in the interpretation, administration, or
application of) any law or Treaty, or any published practice or concession of
any relevant taxing authority; or

 

(b)  (1) the relevant Lender is a
Qualifying Lender solely under sub-paragraph (ii) of the definition of
Qualifying Lender; (2) the Board of the Inland Revenue has given (and not
revoked) a direction (a “Direction”) under section 349C of the Taxes Act
(as that provision has effect on the date on which the relevant Lender became a
Lender) which relates to that payment and that Lender has received from the
U.K. Borrower a certified copy of that Direction; and (3) the payment could
have been made to the Lender without any deduction for Tax in the absence of
that Direction; or

 

(c)  the relevant Lender is a
Treaty Lender and either (1) neither of the following conditions have been
satisfied (A) notice under the relevant Treaty has been given by the United
Kingdom Inland Revenue to the U.K. Borrower or the relevant Guarantor
authorizing the U.K. Borrower or the relevant Guarantor to make such payment
without deduction for Tax or (B) the Global Administrative Agent has obtained
provisional authority under the PTR Scheme authorizing the relevant Borrower to
make such payment without deduction for Tax and such provisional authority has
not been withdrawn or revoked or (2) the U.K. Borrower or the relevant
Guarantor is able to demonstrate that the payment could have been made to the
Lender without deduction for Tax had that Lender complied with its obligations paragraphs
(vii) or (viii) below.

 

(vii) Each Treaty Lender and the U.K. Borrower shall
use reasonable efforts to co-operate in completing any procedural formalities
necessary for the U.K. Borrower to obtain authorization to make that payment
without a deduction for Tax or allow the relevant Treaty Lender to recover such
Taxes where any such payment has been made subject to a deduction for Tax.

 

(viii) PTR Scheme

 

(a)  Each Treaty Lender:

 

(1)  irrevocably appoints
the Global Administrative Agent to act as syndicate manager under, and
authorizes the Global Administrative Agent to operate, and take any action
necessary or desirable under, the PTR Scheme in connection with this Agreement;

 

(2)  shall co-operate
with the Global Administrative Agent in completing any procedural formalities
necessary under the PTR Scheme, and shall promptly supply to the Global
Administrative Agent such information as the Global Administrative Agent may
request in connection with the operation of the PTR Scheme;

 

(3)  without limiting the
liability of the U.K. Borrower under this Agreement, shall, within 30 Business
Days of demand, indemnify the Global

 

62

 

Administrative Agent for any liability or loss
incurred by the Global Administrative Agent as a result of the Global
Administrative Agent acting as syndicate manager under the PTR Scheme in
connection with the Treaty Lender’s participation in any Loan (except to the
extent that the liability or loss arises directly from the Global
Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct); and

 

(4)  agrees to, indemnify the U.K. Borrower and
each Guarantor for any Tax or increased Tax or any interest or penalties
associated therewith which the U.K. Borrower or such Guarantor becomes liable
to pay in respect of any payments made to such Treaty Lender arising as a
result of any incorrect information supplied by such Treaty Lender which
results in a provisional authority issued by the U.K. Inland Revenue under the
PTR Scheme being withdrawn.  Payments due
under this indemnification shall be made within 30 Business Days of demand by
U.K. Borrower or the applicable Guarantor.

 

(b)  The U.K. Borrower acknowledges that it is
fully aware of its contingent obligations under the PTR Scheme and shall:

 

(1)  promptly supply to the Global Administrative
Agent such information as the Global Administrative Agent may request in
connection with the operation of the PTR Scheme; and

 

(2)  act in accordance
with any provisional notice issued by the U.K. Inland Revenue under the PTR
Scheme.

 

(c)  The Global Administrative Agent agrees to
provide, as soon as reasonably practicable, a copy of any provisional authority
issued to it under the PTR Scheme in connection with any Loan to the U.K.
Borrower.

 

(d)  All of the parties hereto acknowledge that
the Global Administrative Agent:

 

(1)  is entitled to rely
completely upon information provided to it in connection with sub-paragraph (a)
or (b) above;

 

(2)  is not obliged to undertake any enquiry into
the accuracy of such information, nor into the status of the Treaty Lender or, as
the case may be, U.K. Borrower providing such information; and

 

(3)  shall have no
liability to any person for the accuracy of any information it submits in
connection with paragraph (a)(1) above.

 

(e)  In this Clause “PTR Scheme” means the
Provisional Treaty Relief scheme as described in Inland Revenue Guidelines
dated January 2003 and administered by the Inland Revenue’s Centre for
Non-Residents.

 

63

 

(ix) At least five Business Days prior to the first date
on which interest or fees are payable hereunder for the account of any
Syndicated Canadian Bank or the Global Swing Line Lender in respect of Canadian
Swing Line Loans to the Canadian Borrower, such Syndicated Canadian Bank or
Global Swing Line Lender to the extent it is neither incorporated under the
laws of a jurisdiction in Canada nor deemed to be a resident in Canada for
purposes of Part XIII of the Income Tax Act (Canada)
(each a “Non-Canadian Lender”) agrees that it
will deliver to each of the Canadian Borrower and the Global Administrative
Agent a certificate of a duly authorized officer of such Non-Canadian Lender to
the effect that such Non-Canadian Lender is capable under the provisions of an
applicable tax treaty or under the provisions of applicable law of receiving,
and enabling the Canadian Borrower under the provisions of the Income Tax Act (Canada) to make, payments of interest or
fees with respect to the Syndicated Canadian Loans and Canadian Swing Line
Loans to the Canadian Borrower without deduction or withholding of income tax
(such certificate, a “Canadian Exemption
Certificate”).  Each
Non-Canadian Lender further undertakes to deliver to each of the Canadian
Borrower and the Global Administrative Agent a replacement certificate of a duly
authorized officer of such Non-Canadian Lender before or promptly upon the
occurrence of any event requiring a change in the Canadian Exemption
Certificate so delivered by it.  All
certificates described in the preceding sentences shall certify that such
Non-Canadian Lender is entitled to receive interest or fees under this
Agreement or the Syndicated Canadian Addendum without deduction or withholding
of any applicable income taxes, unless an event
(including without limitation any change in treaty, law or regulation) has
occurred prior to the date on which any such delivery would otherwise be
required which renders all such certificates inapplicable or which would
prevent such Non-Canadian Lender from duly completing and delivering any such
certificate with respect to it and such Non-Canadian Lender advises the
Canadian Borrower and the Global Administrative Agent that it is not capable of
receiving payments without any deduction or withholding of applicable income
tax.

 

(x) For any period during which a Non-Canadian Lender
has failed to provide the Canadian Borrower with an appropriate Canadian
Exemption Certificate as required pursuant to clause (ix) above (unless
such failure is due to a change in treaty, law or regulation, or any change in
the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority,
occurring subsequent to the date on which a Canadian Exemption Certificate
originally was required to be provided), such Non-Canadian Lender shall not be
entitled to indemnification under this Section 3.5 with respect to
Taxes imposed by the applicable jurisdiction in Canada; provided that,
should a Non-Canadian Lender which is otherwise exempt from or subject to a
reduced rate of withholding tax become subject to Taxes because of its failure
to deliver a Canadian Exemption Certificate required under clause (ix),
above, the Canadian Borrower shall take such steps as such Non-Canadian Lender
shall reasonably request to assist such Non-Canadian Lender to recover such
Taxes.  In addition, neither any
Syndicated Canadian Bank nor the Global Swing Line Lender shall be entitled to
indemnification under this Section 3.5 with respect to Taxes
imposed by the applicable jurisdiction in Canada other than indemnity
obligations under this Section 3.5 arising out of a change after
the Closing Date in any applicable treaty, law or regulation, or any change in
the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority.

 

(xi) If a Borrower
or Guarantor pays an amount under this Section 3.5, or is required
to make a deduction or withholding in relation to a payment hereunder or under
any Note and

 

64

 

account
for the same to the relevant tax authority, which gives or may give rise to a
Tax Credit for the recipient of that payment (the “Recipient”),
the Recipient shall, promptly upon utilisation or receipt of such Tax Credit,
pay an amount to such Borrower or the relevant Guarantor which will leave it
(after that payment) in the same after-Tax position as it would have been in
had the original amount paid under this Section 3.5 (or withheld or
deducted pursuant to applicable law) not been required to have been made,
withheld or deducted; provided that nothing in this clause (xi)
shall require any Lender to make available its tax return (or any other
information relating to its taxes which it deems confidential).

 

(xii) If (i) a Lender or the Global Administrative
Agent assigns, transfers or sells all or any portion of its rights and/or
delegates all or any portion of its obligations under this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents (but excluding any participations and other transfers
pursuant to Section 2.2(E)) or changes its Lending Installation for
the purposes of this Agreement, and (ii) as a direct result of circumstances
existing at the date of the assignment, transfer, sale, delegation or change,
any Borrower or Guarantor would be obliged to pay any incremental amount under
this Section 3.5, then the transferee or Lender acting through its
new Lending Installation shall only be entitled to receive payment under this Section 3.5
to the same extent that the previous Lender or the Lender acting through its
previous Lending Installation would have been entitled if no such transaction
had taken place.  If a Lender sells a
participation in all or any part of its rights or obligations under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the participant shall only be entitled
to receive payment under this Section 3.5 to the extent that the
Lender selling the participation would have been entitled if no such
participation had taken place. 
Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else contained in this Section 3.5,
in the event of a participation or transfer pursuant to Section 2.2(E),
the participant shall be entitled to the indemnification under Sections
3.5(i) and 3.5(iii) in respect of any payments received pursuant to
such participation or transfer.

 

(xiii) Where this Agreement or any Note requires the
relevant Borrower or Guarantor to reimburse a Lender or the Global
Administrative Agent for any costs or expenses, such Borrower or Guarantor
shall also at the same time pay and indemnify the relevant Lender or the Global
Administrative Agent (as applicable) against all United Kingdom value added tax
(“VAT”) incurred by such Lender or the
Global Administrative Agent (as applicable) in respect of the costs or expenses
to the extent that such Lender or the Global Administrative Agent (as
applicable) reasonably determines that neither it nor any other member of any group
of which it is a member for VAT purposes is entitled to credit or repayment
from the relevant tax authority in respect of VAT.

 

3.6  Mitigation; Lender
Statements; Survival of Indemnity. 
To the extent reasonably possible, each Lender shall designate an
alternate Lending Installation with respect to its Fixed Rate Loans to reduce
any liability of the relevant Borrower or the Guarantors to such Lender under Sections
3.1 and 3.2 or to avoid the unavailability of a Type of Advance
under Section 3.3, so long as such designation is not materially
disadvantageous to such Lender.  Each
Lender requiring compensation pursuant to this Article III shall
use its reasonable efforts to notify the relevant Borrower and the Global
Administrative Agent in writing of any Change, law, policy, rule, guideline or directive
giving rise to such demand for compensation not later than one hundred and
twenty (120) days following the date upon which the responsible account officer
of such Lender knows or should have known of such Change, law, policy, rule,
guideline or

 

65

 

directive.  Any demand for compensation pursuant to this Article III
shall be in writing and shall state the amount due, if any, under Section 3.1,
3.2, 3.4 or 3.5 and shall set forth in reasonable detail
the calculations upon which such Lender determined such amount.  Such written demand shall be rebuttably
presumed correct for all purposes. Determination of amounts payable under such
Sections in connection with a Fixed Rate Loan shall be calculated as though
each Lender funded its Fixed Rate Loan through the purchase of a deposit of the
type, currency and maturity corresponding to the deposit used as a reference in
determining the applicable fixed rate of interest with respect to such Loan,
whether in fact that is the case or not. 
The obligations of the Borrowers and the Guarantors under Sections
3.1, 3.2, 3.4 and 3.5 shall survive payment of the
Obligations and termination of this Agreement.

 

3.7  Non-U.S. Reserve Costs
or Fees.  If, any law
or any governmental or quasi-governmental rule, regulation, policy, guideline
or directive of any jurisdiction outside of the United States of America or any
subdivision thereof and outside of England and Wales or any subdivision thereof
(whether or not having the force of law), imposes or deems applicable any
reserve requirement against or fee with respect to assets of, deposits with or
for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender or any applicable Lending
Installation (other than any Tax), and the result of the foregoing is to
increase the cost to such Lender or applicable Lending Installation of making
or maintaining its Loans to any Foreign Borrower or its Commitment, Swing Line
Commitment or Syndicated Canadian Commitment to any Borrower or to reduce the
return received by such Lender or applicable Lending Installation in connection
with such Loans to any Foreign Borrower or Commitment, Swing Line Commitment or
Syndicated Canadian Commitment to any Foreign Borrower, then, within 15 days of
demand by such Lender, such Foreign Borrower shall pay such Lender such
additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such increased
cost or reduction in amount received.

 

3.8  Replacement of Affected
Lenders.  If, any
Lender requests compensation under Section 3.1, 3.2 or 3.7,
or if any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount pursuant to Section 3.5,
or if any Lender defaults in its obligation to fund Loans hereunder, then the
U.S. Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender
and the Global Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and
delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions
contained in Section 13.3), all its interests, rights and
obligations under this Agreement (other than any outstanding Bid Rate Loans
held by it) to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee
may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided
that (i) in the case of an assignment to an assignee which is not a Lender, the
U.S. Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Global
Administrative Agent, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii)
such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding
principal of its Loans (other than Bid Rate Loans) and participations in the
relevant 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 U.S. Borrower (in the case of all other
amounts) and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a
claim for compensation under Sections 3.1, 3.2 or 3.7
or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 3.5, such
assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments with
respect to the assignee Lender.  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 U.S. Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to
apply.

 

66

ARTICLE V  REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

 

In order to induce the Global Administrative Agent and
the Lenders to enter into this Agreement and to make the Loans and the other
financial accommodations to the Borrowers, each of the Borrowers and, solely in
the case of the representation and warranty set forth in Section 5.4
hereof, each of the Companies represents and warrants as follows to each Lender
and the Global Administrative Agent as of the Closing Date and thereafter on
each date as required by Section 4.2:

 

5.1  Corporate Existence and
Standing.  Each of the
Companies and each of their respective Subsidiaries is a corporation duly
incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its
jurisdiction of incorporation and has all requisite authority to conduct its
business in each jurisdiction in which its business is conducted, except to the
extent that the failure to be in good standing or authorized to conduct
business in any jurisdiction could not, when taken together with all similar
failures, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

5.2  Authorization and Validity.  Each of the Companies has the corporate power
and authority and legal right to execute and deliver the Loan Documents to
which it is party and to perform its obligations thereunder.  The execution and delivery by each of the
Companies of the Loan Documents to which it is party and the performance of its
obligations thereunder have been duly authorized by proper corporate
proceedings, and each Loan Document to which any Company is party constitutes
the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Companies, as applicable,
enforceable against such Companies, as applicable, in accordance with its
terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or
similar laws affecting the

 

68

 

enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and general principles of
equity, regardless of whether the application of such principles is considered
in a proceeding in equity or at law.

 

5.3  No Conflict.  Neither the execution and delivery by each of
the Companies of the Loan Documents to which it is party, nor the consummation
of the transactions therein contemplated, nor compliance with the provisions
thereof will violate any law, rule, regulation, order, writ, judgment,
injunction, decree or award binding on any Company or any of their Subsidiaries
or any Company’s or any of their Subsidiaries’ articles of incorporation or by-laws
or comparable constitutive documents or the provisions of any indenture,
instrument or agreement to which any Company or any of their Subsidiaries is a
party or is subject, or by which it, or its Property, is bound, or conflict
with or constitute a default thereunder, or result in the creation or
imposition of any Lien in, of or on the Property of any of the Companies or any
of their Subsidiaries pursuant to the terms of any such indenture, instrument
or agreement which violation, conflict or imposition could reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

5.4  Financial Statements.  The December 31, 2003, consolidated
financial statements of HDFS and its consolidated Subsidiaries and of Harley
and its Subsidiaries, previously delivered to certain of the Lenders, were
prepared in accordance with Agreement Accounting Principles in effect on the
date such statements were prepared and fairly present the consolidated
financial condition of HDFS and its consolidated Subsidiaries and Harley and
its consolidated Subsidiaries, as applicable, at the date thereof and the
consolidated results of their operations for the period then ended.  The consolidated financial statements of HDFS
and its Subsidiaries dated as of June 30, 2004, previously delivered to
certain of the Lenders, were prepared in accordance with Agreement Accounting
Principles in effect on the date such statements were prepared and fairly
present the consolidated financial condition of HDFS and its Subsidiaries at
the date thereof and the consolidated results of their operations for the
six-month period then ended, subject to normal year-end adjustments.

 

5.5  Material Adverse Change.  From December 31, 2003 up to the Closing
Date, there has been no event, development or circumstance which could
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

5.6  Taxes.  Except as described on Schedule 5.6
hereto, all material tax returns required to be filed by any of the Companies
or their respective Subsidiaries in any jurisdiction have, in fact, been filed,
all such tax returns have been prepared in accordance with applicable laws, and
all taxes, assessments, fees and other governmental charges upon the Companies
or any of their Subsidiaries or upon any of their respective properties, income
or franchises, which are shown on such returns have been paid except to the
extent such tax payments are being contested in good faith by appropriate
proceedings or with respect to which adequate reserves or other appropriate
provisions are being maintained in accordance with Agreement Accounting
Principles.  For all taxable years ending
on or before December 31, 2001, the United States Federal income tax
liability and the United Kingdom corporation tax liability of the Companies and
their respective Subsidiaries has been satisfied and, in the case of United
States federal income tax, either the period of limitations on assessment of additional
United States Federal income tax has expired or the applicable Company or the
applicable Subsidiary has entered into an agreement with the IRS closing
conclusively the total tax liability for the taxable year.

 

69

 

5.7  Litigation.
There is no litigation, arbitration, governmental investigation, proceeding or
inquiry pending or, to the knowledge of any of their officers, threatened
against or affecting any of the Companies or any of their Subsidiaries which
could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

5.8  Subsidiaries.  Schedule 5.8 hereto contains an
accurate list as of the Closing Date of all of the Subsidiaries of each of the
Companies, setting forth their respective jurisdictions of incorporation and
the percentage of their respective capital stock owned by the Companies or
their Subsidiaries.  All of the issued
and outstanding shares of capital stock of the Subsidiaries reflected on Schedule 5.8
hereto have been duly authorized and issued and are fully paid and non-assessable
and are free and clear of all Liens, except Liens permitted under Section 6.3(B).

 

5.9  ERISA.  The Unfunded Liabilities of all Benefit Plans
are not such that the ongoing funding of such obligations in accordance with
ERISA and the Code could reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse
Effect.  None of the Companies nor any
other member of the Controlled Group has incurred, or is reasonably expected to
incur, any withdrawal liability to Multiemployer Plans in each case, which
could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  Each Plan complies in all material respects
with all applicable requirements of law and regulations, no Reportable Event
has occurred with respect to any Benefit Plan, none of the Companies or any
other member of the Controlled Group has withdrawn from any Plan or initiated
steps to do so, and no steps have been taken to reorganize or terminate any
Plan in each case, which could reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect.

 

5.10  Accuracy of
Information.  As of the Closing Date,
(i) the information, exhibits and reports furnished by or on behalf of Harley,
the Companies and any of their Subsidiaries to the Global Administrative Agent
or to any Lender in connection with the negotiation or preparation of the
initial Loan Documents, including, without limitation, the Confidential
Information Memorandum, if any, prepared in connection herewith, (ii) the
representations and warranties of the Companies and their Subsidiaries
contained in the initial Loan Documents, and (iii) all certificates and
documents delivered on or prior to the Closing Date to the Global
Administrative Agent and the Lenders pursuant to the terms thereof do not in
each case contain as of the date furnished any untrue statement of a material
fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements
contained herein or therein, in light of the circumstances under which they
were made, not misleading.

 

5.11  Securities Activities.  None of the Companies nor any of its
Subsidiaries is engaged in the business of extending credit for the purpose of
purchasing or carrying Margin Stock.

 

5.12  Material Agreements.  None of the Companies nor any of their
Subsidiaries is a party to any agreement or instrument or subject to any
charter or other contractual or corporate restriction which will have or is
reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.  None of the Companies nor any of their
Subsidiaries has received notice or has knowledge that (i) it is in default in
the performance, observance or fulfillment of any of the obligations, covenants
or conditions contained in any material Contractual Obligation applicable to
it, or (ii) any condition exists which, with the giving of notice or the lapse
of time or both, would constitute a default with respect to any such
Contractual Obligation, in each case, except where such default or defaults, if
any, will not have or are not reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse
Effect.

 

70

 

5.13  Compliance with Laws.  Each of the Companies and their Subsidiaries
are in compliance with all Requirements of Law applicable to them and their
respective businesses, in each case where the failure to so comply individually
or in the aggregate will have or is reasonably likely to have a Material
Adverse Effect.

 

5.14  Assets and Properties.  Each Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries has
good and marketable title to all of its assets and properties (tangible and
intangible, real or personal) owned by it or a valid leasehold interest in all
of its leased assets (except insofar as marketability may be limited by any
laws or regulations of any Governmental Authority affecting such assets) except
to the extent failure to have such good and marketable title could not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and all such assets
and property are free and clear of all Liens, except Liens permitted under Section 6.3(B).

 

5.15  Statutory Indebtedness
Restrictions.  None of the Companies, nor any of their
Subsidiaries is subject to regulation under the Public Utility Holding Company
Act of 1935, the Federal Power Act, the Interstate Commerce Act, or the

Matters. 
Each Foreign Employee Benefit Plan is in compliance in all respects with
all laws, regulations and rules applicable thereto and the respective
requirements of the governing documents for such Foreign Employee Benefit Plan,

ARTICLE VIII  ACCELERATION,
DEFAULTING LENDERS; WAIVERS, AMENDMENTS AND REMEDIES

 

8.1  Remedies

 

(a)  Termination
of Commitments; Acceleration.  If any
Default described in Section 7.1(f), 7.1(g) or 7.1(i)
occurs with respect to any Borrower, the obligations of the Lenders to make
Loans (including without limitation Syndicated Canadian Loans) hereunder shall
automatically terminate and the Obligations shall immediately become due and
payable without any election or action on the part of the Global Administrative
Agent or any Lender.  If any other
Default occurs, the Required Lenders may (i) terminate the obligations of the
Lenders to make Loans (including without limitation Syndicated Canadian Loans)
hereunder or (ii) declare the Obligations to be due and payable, or both, and
upon any declaration under clause (ii), the Commitments shall terminate and the
Obligations shall become immediately due and payable, without presentment,
demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which each Borrower expressly
waives.

 

(b)  Rescission.  If, at any time after termination of the
Lenders’ obligations to make Loans but before acceleration of the maturity of
the Loans, the relevant Borrower shall pay all arrears of interest and all
payments on account of principal of the Loans which shall have become due
otherwise than by acceleration (with interest on principal and, to the extent
permitted by law, on overdue interest, at the rates specified in this
Agreement) and all Defaults and Unmatured Defaults (other than nonpayment of
principal of and accrued interest on the Loans due and payable solely by virtue
of acceleration) shall be remedied or waived pursuant to Section 8.3,
then upon the written consent of the Required Lenders and written notice to the
U.S. Borrower, the termination of Lenders’ respective obligations to make Loans
or the aforesaid acceleration and its consequences may be rescinded and
annulled; but such action shall not affect any subsequent Default or Unmatured
Default or impair any right or remedy consequent thereon.  The provisions of the preceding sentence are
intended merely to bind the Lenders to a decision which may be made at the
election of the Required Lenders; they are not intended to benefit any Borrower
and do not give any Borrower the right to require the Lenders to rescind or
annul any termination of the aforesaid obligations of the Lenders or any
acceleration hereunder, even if the conditions set forth herein are met.

 

8.2  Defaulting Lender.  In the event that any Lender fails to fund
its Pro Rata Share or Syndicated Canadian Pro Rata Share (as applicable) of any
Syndicated Global Advance or

 

80

 

Syndicated Canadian Advance requested or deemed requested by the
applicable Borrower which such Lender is obligated to fund under the terms of
this Agreement (the funded portion of such Advance being hereinafter referred
to as a “Non Pro Rata Loan”),
until the earlier of such Lender’s cure of such failure and the termination of
the Commitments, the proceeds of all amounts thereafter repaid to the Global
Administrative Agent by any Borrower and otherwise required to be applied to
such Lender’s share of all other Obligations pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement shall be advanced to the applicable Borrower by the Global
Administrative Agent (“Cure Loans”)
on behalf of such Lender to cure, in full or in part, such failure by such
Lender, but shall nevertheless be deemed to have been paid to such Lender in
satisfaction of such other Obligations. 
Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary:

 

(i) 
the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.2 shall apply
only with respect to the proceeds of payments of Obligations and shall not
affect the conversion or continuation of Loans pursuant to Section 2.8;

 

(ii)  any such Lender shall be deemed to have cured
its failure to fund its Pro Rata Share of any Syndicated Global Advance or
Syndicated Canadian Pro Rata Share of any Syndicated Canadian Advance at such
time as an amount equal to such Lender’s original Pro Rata Share or Syndicated
Canadian Pro Rata Share (as applicable) of the requested principal portion of
such Advance is fully funded to the applicable Borrower, whether made by such
Lender itself or by operation of the terms of this Section 8.2, and
whether or not the Non Pro Rata Loan with respect thereto has been repaid,
converted or continued;

 

(iii)  amounts advanced to any Borrower to cure, in
full or in part, any such Lender’s failure to fund its Pro Rata Share of any
Syndicated Global Advance or Syndicated Canadian Pro Rata Share of any
Syndicated Canadian Advance shall be redenominated in the relevant currency and
shall bear interest at the rate applicable to Syndicated Global Loans which are
Base Rate Loans or Syndicated Canadian Loans which are Canadian Prime Rate
Loans (as applicable), in effect from time to time, and for all other purposes
of this Agreement shall be treated as if they were Base Rate Loans or Canadian
Prime Rate Loans (as applicable);

 

(iv)  regardless of whether or not a Default has
occurred or is continuing, and notwithstanding the instructions of any Borrower
as to its desired application, all repayments of principal which, in accordance
with the other terms of this Agreement, would be applied to the outstanding
Base Rate Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans shall be applied first,
ratably to all Base Rate Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans (as applicable)
constituting Non Pro Rata Loans, second, ratably to Base Rate Loans or
Canadian Prime Rate Loans (as applicable) 
other than those constituting Non Pro Rata Loans or Cure Loans and, third,
ratably to Base Rate Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans (as applicable)
constituting Cure Loans;

 

(v)  for so long as and until the earlier of any
such Lender’s cure of the failure to fund its Pro Rata Share of any Syndicated
Global Advance or Syndicated Canadian Pro Rata Share of any Syndicated Canadian
Advance and the termination of the Commitments or Syndicated Canadian
Commitments (as applicable), (1) the term

“Required Lenders” for purposes of this
Agreement shall mean Lenders (excluding all Lenders whose failure to fund their
respective Pro Rata Share of such Advance have not been so cured) whose Pro
Rata Shares represent greater than fifty-one percent (51%) of the aggregate Pro
Rata Shares of such Lenders and (2) the term “Required Syndicated Canadian
Banks” for purposes of this Agreement shall mean Syndicated Canadian Banks
(excluding all Syndicated Canadian Banks whose failure to fund their respective
Syndicated Canadian Pro Rata Share of such Advance have not been so cured)
whose Syndicated Canadian Pro Rata Shares represent greater than fifty-one
percent (51%) of the aggregate Syndicated Canadian Pro Rata Shares of such
Syndicated Canadian Banks; and

 

(vi)  for so long as and until any such Lender’s
failure to fund its Pro Rata Share of any Syndicated Global Advance or
Syndicated Canadian Pro Rata Share of any Syndicated Canadian Advance is cured
in accordance with Section 8.2(ii), such Lender shall not be
entitled to any fees with respect to its Commitment or Syndicated Canadian
Commitment (as applicable), which fees shall accrue in favor of the Lenders
which have funded their respective Pro Rata Share or Syndicated Canadian Pro
Rata Share (as applicable) of such requested Advance, shall be allocated among
such performing Lenders ratably based upon their relative Commitments or
Syndicated Canadian Commitments (as applicable).

 

8.3  Amendments.  Subject to the provisions of this Article VIII,
the Required Lenders (or the Global Administrative Agent with the consent in
writing of the Required Lenders) and the Borrowers may enter into agreements
supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding or modifying any provisions to
the Loan Documents or changing in any manner the rights of the Lenders or the
Borrower hereunder or waiving any Default hereunder; provided, however,
that (a) no such supplemental agreement shall, without the consent of each
Lender directly affected thereby:

 

(i) 
postpone or extend the Termination Date or any other date fixed for any
payment of principal of, or interest on, the Loans or any fees or other amounts
payable to such Lender (except with respect to a waiver of the application of
the default rate of interest pursuant to Section 2.11 hereof);

 

(ii) 
reduce the principal amount of any Loans, or reduce the rate or extend
the time of payment of interest or fees thereon or other amounts payable
hereunder;

 

(iii) 
reduce the percentage specified in the definition of Required Lenders or
any other percentage of Lenders specified to be the applicable percentage in
this Agreement to act on specified matters or amend the definitions of “Required
Lenders”, “Required Syndicated Canadian Banks”, “Pro Rata Share” or “Syndicated
Canadian Pro Rata Share”;

the consent of any of the Lenders or Borrowers.

 

8.4  Preservation of Rights.  No delay or omission of the Lenders or the
Global Administrative Agent to exercise any right under the Loan Documents shall
impair such right or be construed to be a waiver of any Default or an
acquiescence therein, and the making of a Loan notwithstanding the existence of
a Default or the inability of any Borrower to satisfy the conditions precedent
to such Loan shall not constitute any waiver or acquiescence.  Any single or partial exercise of any such
right shall not preclude other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of
any other right, and no waiver, amendment or other variation of the terms,
conditions or provisions of the Loan Documents whatsoever shall be valid unless
in writing signed by the Lenders required pursuant to Section 8.3,
and then only to the extent in such writing specifically set forth.  All remedies contained in the Loan Documents

for each such Person, which attorneys and paralegals may be employees of such
Persons) paid or incurred by such Persons in connection with the preparation,

Companies or their Subsidiaries, the presence of asbestos-containing materials
at any respective Property of the Companies or their Subsidiaries or the
Release or threatened Release of any Contaminant into the environment
(collectively, the “Indemnified Matters”);

 

provided, however,
no Borrower shall have any obligation to an Indemnitee hereunder with respect
to Indemnified Matters caused solely by or resulting solely from the willful
misconduct or Gross Negligence of such Indemnitee, as determined by the final
non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.  If the undertaking to indemnify, pay and hold
harmless set forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it is
violative of any law or public policy, the Borrowers shall contribute the
maximum portion which it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law,
to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Matters incurred by the
Indemnitees.

 

(C)  Waiver
of Certain Claims; Settlement of Claims.

indirect, exemplary or punitive damages.

relating to or arising out of the transaction evidenced by this Agreement or

this end the provisions of all Loan Documents are declared to be severable.

Lenders, the Global Swing Line Lender and the Global Administrative Agent shall
be solely that of borrower or guarantor and lender.  Neither the Global Administrative Agent, nor

responsibilities to any of the Companies. 
Neither the Global Administrative Agent, nor any Lender, nor the Global

THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.

in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents.  In the event an ambiguity or
question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement and the other Loan

presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by
virtue of the authorship of any provisions of this Agreement or any of the
other Loan Documents.

ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

 

10.1  Appointment; Nature of
Relationship. JPMorgan Chase Bank is appointed by
the Lenders (each reference in this Article X to a Lender being in
its capacity either as a Lender or the Global Swing Line Lender, or any or all
of the foregoing) as the Global Administrative Agent hereunder and under each
other Loan Document, and each of the Lenders irrevocably authorizes the Global
Administrative Agent to act as the contractual representative of such Lender
with the rights and duties expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan
Documents.  The Global Administrative
Agent agrees to act as such contractual representative upon the express
conditions contained in this Article X.  Notwithstanding the use of the defined term “Global
Administrative Agent”, it is expressly understood and agreed that the Global
Administrative Agent shall not have any fiduciary responsibilities to any
Lender by reason of this Agreement and that the Global Administrative Agent is
merely acting as the representative of the Lenders with only those duties as
are expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.  In its capacity as the Lenders’ contractual
representative, the Global Administrative Agent (i) does not assume any
fiduciary duties to any of the Lenders, and (ii) is acting as an independent
contractor, the rights and duties of which are limited to those expressly set
forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.  Each of the Lenders agrees to assert no claim
against the Global Administrative Agent on any agency theory or any other
theory of liability for breach of fiduciary duty, all of which claims each
Lender waives.

 

10.2  Powers.  The Global Administrative Agent shall have
and may exercise such powers under the Loan Documents as are specifically
delegated to the Global Administrative Agent by the terms of each thereof,
together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Global
Administrative Agent shall have no implied duties or fiduciary duties to the
Lenders, or any obligation to the Lenders to take any action hereunder or under
any of the other Loan Documents except any action specifically provided by the
Loan Documents required to be taken by the Global Administrative Agent.  The Global Administrative Agent shall have
and may exercise such powers under the Loan Documents as are specifically
delegated to the Global Administrative Agent by the terms of each thereof,
together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.  The Global Administrative Agent shall have no
implied duties or fiduciary duties to the Lenders, or any obligation to the
Lenders to take any action hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents
except any action specifically provided by the Loan Documents required to be
taken by the Global Administrative Agent. 
Without limiting the foregoing, the Global Administrative Agent hereby
agrees to provide the notice contemplated by Section 7.1(d) if so
requested by the Required Lenders.

 

10.3  General Immunity.  Neither the Global Administrative Agent nor
any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable to any of
the Borrowers or Lenders for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or
them hereunder or under any other Loan Document or in connection herewith or
therewith except to the extent such action or inaction is found in a final
non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen
solely from (i) the Gross Negligence or willful misconduct of such Person or
(ii) breach of contract by such Person with respect to the Loan Documents.

 

10.4  No Responsibility for
Loans, Creditworthiness, Recitals, Etc. 
Neither the Global Administrative Agent nor any of its directors,
officers, agents or employees shall be responsible 

 

87

 

for or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, or verify (i) any
statement, warranty or representation made in connection with any Loan Document
or any borrowing hereunder; (ii) the performance or observance of any of the
covenants or agreements of any obligor under any Loan Document; (iii) the
satisfaction of any condition specified in Article IV; (iv) the
existence or possible existence of any Default or (v) the validity,
effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other instrument or
writing furnished in connection therewith. 
The Global Administrative Agent shall not be responsible to any Lender
for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties herein or in any of
the other Loan Documents, for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness,
validity, legality, enforceability, collectibility, or sufficiency of this Agreement
or any of the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby, or
for the financial condition of Harley, any guarantor of any or all of the
Obligations, any Company or any of their Subsidiaries.

 

10.5  Action on Instructions of
Lenders.  The Global Administrative
Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from
acting, hereunder and under any other Loan Document in accordance with written
instructions signed by the Required Lenders (except with respect to actions
that require the consent of all of the Lenders as provided in Section 8.3),
and such instructions and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto
shall be binding on all of the Lenders and on all holders of Notes.  The Global Administrative Agent shall be
fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action hereunder and under
any other Loan Document unless it shall first be indemnified to its
satisfaction by the Lenders pro rata against any and all liability, cost and
expense that it may incur by reason of taking or continuing to take any such
action.

 

10.6  Employment of the
Global Administrative Agent and Counsel. 
The Global Administrative Agent may execute any of their respective
duties hereunder and under any other Loan Document by or through employees,
agents, affiliates and attorneys-in-fact, and shall not be answerable to the
Lenders, except as to money or securities received by it or its authorized
agents, for the default or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected
by it with reasonable care.  The Global
Administrative Agent shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning the
contractual arrangement among the Global Administrative Agent and the Lenders
and all matters pertaining to the Global Administrative Agent’s duties
hereunder and under any other Loan Document.

 

10.7  Reliance on Documents;
Counsel. The Global Administrative Agent shall be
entitled to rely upon any Note, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit,
letter, telegram, statement, paper or document believed by it to be genuine and
correct and to have been signed or sent by the proper person or persons, and,
in respect to legal matters, upon the opinion of counsel selected by the Global
Administrative Agent, which counsel may be employees of the Global
Administrative Agent.

 

10.8  The Global
Administrative Agent’s Reimbursement and
Indemnification.  The Lenders agree
to reimburse and indemnify the Global Administrative Agent ratably in
proportion to their respective Pro Rata Shares (determined at the time such
indemnity is sought) (i) for any amounts not reimbursed by any Borrower for
which the Global Administrative Agent is entitled to reimbursement or
indemnification by any Borrower under the Loan Documents, (ii) for any other
expenses incurred by the Global Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders
in

 

88

 

connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration,
distribution (including via the internet) and enforcement of the Loan Documents,
including as a result of a dispute among the Lenders or between any Lender and
the Global Administrative Agent, and (iii) for any liabilities, obligations,
losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or
disbursements of any kind and nature whatsoever which may be imposed on,
incurred by or asserted against the Global Administrative Agent in any way
relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents or any other document
delivered in connection therewith or the transactions contemplated thereby, or
the enforcement of any of the terms thereof or of any such other documents,
including as a result of a dispute among the Lenders or between any Lender and
the Global Administrative Agent; provided that no Lender shall be liable
for any of the foregoing to the extent any of the foregoing is found in a final
non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen
solely from the Gross Negligence or willful misconduct of the Global
Administrative Agent.

 

10.9  Rights as a Lender.  With respect to its Commitment, Swing Line
Commitment or Syndicated Canadian Commitment, Loans made by it and any Notes
issued to it, the Global Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and
powers hereunder and under any other Loan Document as any Lender and may
exercise the same as though it were not the Global Administrative Agent, as
applicable, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders”, “Syndicated Canadian Bank” or “Global
Swing Line Lender”, as applicable, shall, unless the context otherwise
indicates, include the Global Administrative Agent in its individual
capacity.  The Global Administrative
Agent may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind
of trust, debt, equity or other transaction, in addition to those contemplated
by this Agreement or any other Loan Document, with Harley, any Company or any
of their Subsidiaries in which such Person is not prohibited hereby from
engaging with any other Person.

 

10.10  Lender Credit Decision.  Each Lender acknowledges that it has,
independently and without reliance upon the Global Administrative Agent or any
other Lender and based on the financial statements prepared by the Borrowers
and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its
own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents.  Each Lender also
acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Global
Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information
as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit
decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents.

 

10.11  Successor Global
Administrative Agent.  The Global
Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to
the Lenders and the Borrowers.  Upon any
such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint, on
behalf of the Lenders, a successor Global Administrative Agent.  If no successor Global Administrative Agent
shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted
such appointment within thirty days after the retiring Global Administrative
Agent’s giving notice of resignation, then the retiring Global Administrative
Agent may appoint, on behalf of the Lenders, a successor Global Administrative
Agent.  Notwithstanding anything herein
to the contrary, so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing, each
such successor Global Administrative Agent shall be subject to approval by the
U.S. Borrower, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.  Such successor Global Administrative Agent
shall be a commercial bank (including a branch

 

89

 

thereof) having capital and retained earnings of at least
$500,000,000.  Upon the acceptance of any
appointment as the Global Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Global
Administrative Agent, such successor Global Administrative Agent shall
thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges
and duties of the retiring Global Administrative Agent, and the retiring Global
Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations
hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. 
After any retiring Global Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder
as the Global Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article X
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 the Global Administrative
Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents.

 

10.12  Co-Agents, Documentation Agent,
Syndication Agent, etc.  None of the
Lenders, if any, identified in this Agreement as a “co-agent”, “documentation
agent” or “syndication agent” shall have any right, power, obligation,
liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than those
applicable to all Lenders as such. 
Without limiting the foregoing, none of such Lenders shall have or be
deemed to have a fiduciary relationship with any Lender.  Each Lender hereby makes the same
acknowledgments with respect to such Lenders as it makes with respect to the
Administrative Agent in Section 10.10.

 

ARTICLE XI  SETOFF; RATABLE
PAYMENTS

 

11.1  Setoff.  In addition to, and without limitation of,
any rights of the Lenders or the Global Swing Line Lender under applicable law,
if any Default occurs and is continuing, any indebtedness from any Lender or
the Global Swing Line Lender to any Company (including all account balances, whether
provisional or final and whether or not collected or available) may be offset
and applied toward the payment of the Obligations owing to such Lender or the
Global Swing Line Lender and the other Obligations, whether or not the
Obligations, or any part hereof, shall then be due.

 

11.2  Ratable Payments.  (a) If any Syndicated Global Lender, whether
by setoff or otherwise, has payment made to it upon its Syndicated Global Loans
(other than payments received pursuant to Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.4
or 3.5) in a greater proportion than that received by any other
Syndicated Global Lender, such Syndicated Global Lender agrees, promptly upon
demand, to purchase a portion of the Syndicated Global Loans held by the other
Syndicated Global Lenders so that after such purchase each Syndicated Global
Lender will hold its ratable proportion of Syndicated Global Loans.  If any Syndicated Global Lender, whether in
connection with setoff or amounts which might be subject to setoff or otherwise,
receives collateral or other protection for its Obligations or such amounts
which may be subject to setoff, such Syndicated Global Lender agrees, promptly
upon demand, to take such action necessary such that all Syndicated Global
Lenders share in the benefits of such collateral ratably in proportion to their
Syndicated Global Loans.  In case any
such payment is disturbed by legal process, or otherwise, appropriate further
adjustments shall be made.

 

(b)  If
any Syndicated Canadian Bank, whether by setoff or otherwise, has payment made
to it upon its Syndicated Canadian Loans (other than payments received pursuant
to Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.4 or 3.5) in a greater
proportion than that received by any other Syndicated Canadian Bank, such
Syndicated Canadian Bank agrees, promptly upon demand, to purchase a portion of

 

90

 

the Syndicated Canadian Loans held by the other Syndicated Canadian
Banks so that after such purchase each Syndicated Canadian Bank will hold its
ratable proportion of Syndicated Canadian Loans.  If any Syndicated Canadian Bank, whether in
connection with setoff or amounts which might be subject to setoff or
otherwise, receives collateral or other protection for its Obligations or such
amounts which may be subject to setoff, such Syndicated Canadian Bank agrees,
promptly upon demand, to take such action necessary such that all Syndicated
Canadian Banks share in the benefits of such collateral ratably in proportion
to their Syndicated Canadian Loans.  In
case any such payment is disturbed by legal process, or otherwise, appropriate
further adjustments shall be made.

 

ARTICLE XII  GUARANTEE

 

In order to induce the Lenders to extend
credit hereunder, each Guarantor fully and unconditionally and irrevocably
guarantees, as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety, jointly with the
other Guarantors and severally, the Obligations (including, without limitation,
interest accruing hereunder after the commencement of any case under the United
States Bankruptcy Code or any other bankruptcy-related rules or legislation in
any country in which a Company is organized, whether or not allowed as a claim
in such case).  The obligations of the
Guarantors under this Article XII are sometimes referred to as the “Guarantee”. 
Each Guarantor further agrees that the Obligations may be extended or
renewed, in whole or in part, without notice to or further assent from it, and
that it will remain bound upon its Guarantee hereunder notwithstanding any such
extension or renewal of any Obligation.

 

Each Guarantor waives presentment to, demand
of payment from and protest to any Borrower of any of the Obligations, and also
waives notice of acceptance of its obligations and notice of protest for
nonpayment.  The obligations of the
Guarantors hereunder shall not be affected by the failure of any Lender or the
Global Administrative Agent to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any
right or remedy against any Borrower under the provisions of this Agreement or
any of the other Loan Documents or otherwise, or, except as specifically
provided therein, by any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of any
of the terms or provisions of this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents
or any other agreement.

 

Each Guarantor further agrees that its
Guarantee hereunder constitutes a promise of payment when due and not merely of
collection, and waives any right to require that any resort be had by any
Lender to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of any
Lender in favor of any Borrower or any other person.

 

Each Guarantor agrees that its obligations
under this Guarantee shall be unconditional, irrespective of:

 

(i) 
the validity, enforceability, avoidance, novation or subordination of
any of the Obligations or any of the Loan Documents;

 

(ii) 
the absence of any attempt by, or on behalf of, any Lender or the Global
Administrative Agent to collect, or to take any other action to enforce, all or
any part of the Obligations whether from or against any Borrower, any other
guarantor of the Obligations or any other Person;

 

91

 

(iii) 
the election of any remedy by, or on behalf of, any Lender or the Global
Administrative Agent with respect to all or any part of the Obligations;

 

(iv) 
the waiver, consent, extension, forbearance or granting of any
indulgence by, or on behalf of, any Lender or the Global Administrative Agent
with respect to any provision of any of the Loan Documents;

 

(v) 
the failure of the Global Administrative Agent to take any steps to
perfect and maintain its security interest in, or to preserve its rights to,
any security or collateral for the Obligations;

 

(vi) 
the election by, or on behalf of, any one or more of the Lenders or
the Global Administrative Agent in any proceeding instituted under
Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code (11 U.S.C. 101 et
seq.) (the “Bankruptcy Code”) or
other bankruptcy-related rules or legislation in any country in which a Company
is organized, of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code;

 

(vii) 
any borrowing or grant of a security interest by any Company, as debtor-in-possession,
under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any other bankruptcy-related
rules or regulations in any country in which a Borrower is organized;

 

(viii) 
the disallowance, under Section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code or any
other bankruptcy-related rules or regulations in any country in which a Company
is organized, of all or any portion of the claims of any of the Lenders or the
Global Administrative Agent for repayment of all or any part of the
Obligations; or

 

(ix) 
any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or
equitable discharge or defense of any Borrower or any Guarantor.

 

The obligations of the Guarantors hereunder
shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination
for any reason, and shall not be subject to any defense or setoff,
counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever, by reason of the
invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Obligations, any
impossibility in the performance of the Obligations or otherwise.  The Lenders, either themselves or acting
through the Global Administrative Agent, are authorized, without notice or
demand and without affecting the liability of any Guarantor hereunder, from
time to time, (a) to renew, extend, accelerate or otherwise change the
time for payment of, or other terms relating to, all or any part of the
Obligations, or to otherwise modify, amend or change the terms of any of the
Loan Documents; (b) to accept partial payments on all or any part of the
Obligations; (c) to take and hold security or collateral for the payment
of all or any part of the Obligations, this Guarantee, or any other guaranties
of all or any part of the Obligations, (d) to exchange, enforce, waive and
release any such security or collateral; (e) to apply such security or
collateral and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as in their
discretion they may determine; (f) to settle, release, exchange, enforce,
waive, compromise or collect or otherwise liquidate all or any part of the
Obligations, this Guarantee, any other guaranty of all or any part of the
Obligations, and any security or collateral for the Obligations or for any such
guaranty.

 

92

 

The Guarantors consent and agree that none of
the Lenders nor the Global Administrative Agent nor any Person acting for or on
behalf of the Lenders or the Global Administrative Agent shall be under any
obligation to marshall any assets in favor of any Guarantor or against or in
payment of any or all of the Obligations. 
The Guarantors further agree that, to the extent that any Borrower, any
Guarantor or any other guarantor of all or any part of the Obligations makes a
payment or payments to any Lender or the Global Administrative Agent, or any
Lender or the Global Administrative Agent receives any proceeds of collateral
for all or any part of the Obligations, which payment or payments or any part
thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or
preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid to any Borrower, such
Guarantor, such other guarantor or any other Person, or their respective
estates, trustees, receivers or any other party, under any bankruptcy law,
state, provincial or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then, to the
extent of such payment or repayment, the part of the Obligations which has been
paid, reduced or satisfied by such amount shall be reinstated and continued in
full force and effect as of the time immediately preceding such initial
payment, reduction or satisfaction.

 

In furtherance of the foregoing and not in
limitation of any other right which the Global Administrative Agent or any
Lender may have at law or in equity against the Guarantors by virtue hereof,
upon the failure of any Borrower to pay any of the Obligations when and as the
same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, after notice of
prepayment or otherwise, each Guarantor promises to and will, upon receipt of
written demand by the Global Administrative Agent, forthwith pay, or cause to
be paid, in cash, the amount of such unpaid Obligations.  The Guarantors further agree, jointly and
severally, that if payment in respect of any of the Obligations owed to any
Lender shall be due in a currency other than Dollars and/or at a place of
payment other than as designated in this Agreement or the Syndicated Canadian
Addendum and if, by reason of any Change in Law, disruption of currency or
foreign exchange markets, war or civil disturbance or other event, payment of
such Obligations in such currency or such place of payment shall be impossible
or, in the judgment of such Lender, not consistent with the protection of its
rights or interests, then, at the election of such Lender, the Guarantors shall
make payment of such Obligation in Dollars (based upon the applicable Exchange
Rate in effect on the date of payment) and/or in the applicable place
designated in this Agreement or the Syndicated Canadian Addendum, and shall
indemnify such Lender against any losses or expenses that it shall sustain as a
result of such alternative payment.

 

Until the Obligations have been indefeasibly
paid in full in cash and the Termination Date shall have occurred, the
Guarantors (i) shall have no right of subrogation with respect to such
Obligations and (ii) waive any right to enforce any remedy which the Lenders or
the Global Administrative Agent (or any of them) now have or may hereafter have
against any Borrower, any endorser or any guarantor of all or any part of the
Obligations or any other Person, and the Guarantors waive any benefit of, and
any right to participate in, any security or collateral given to the Lenders
and the Global Administrative Agent (or any of them) to secure the payment or
performance of all or any part of the Obligations or any other liability of any
Borrower to the Lenders or the Global Administrative Agent (or any of them).

 

This Guarantee shall continue in full force
and effect and may not be terminated or otherwise revoked until the Obligations
shall have been fully and indefeasibly paid (in cash) and discharged and this
Agreement and all financing arrangements between any Borrower, the

 

93

 

Global Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have been terminated;
provided that if the capital stock of a Guarantor is sold, transferred
or otherwise disposed of in a transaction permitted pursuant to the terms of
this Agreement (as in effect on the Closing Date), such Guarantor shall be
released from its obligations under this Agreement without further action.  If, notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Guarantors (or either of them) shall have any right under applicable law to
terminate or revoke this Guarantee, the Guarantors agree that such termination
or revocation shall not be effective until a written notice of such revocation
or termination, specifically referring hereto, signed by the Guarantors, is
actually received by the Global Administrative Agent.  Such notice shall not affect the right and
power of any of the Lenders or the Global Administrative Agent to enforce
rights arising prior to receipt thereof by the Global Administrative Agent.  If any Lender grants loans or takes other
action after a Guarantor terminates or revokes this Guarantee but before the
Global Administrative Agent receives such written notice, the rights of such
Lender with respect thereto shall be the same as if such termination or
revocation had not occurred.  The
provisions of this Article XII shall remain in full force and effect,
notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, until the Obligations shall
have been fully and indefeasibly paid (in cash) and discharged.

 

Notwithstanding anything contained in this Article XII,
the guaranty obligations of the Canadian Guarantor shall only apply to the
Obligations of the Canadian Borrower.

 

ARTICLE XIII  BENEFIT OF
AGREEMENT; ASSIGNMENTS; PARTICIPATIONS

 

13.1  Successors and Assigns.  The terms and provisions of the Loan Documents
shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Companies, the Lenders
and the Global Administrative Agent and their respective successors and
assigns, except that (i) the Companies shall not have the right to assign their
rights or obligations under the Loan Documents and (ii) any assignment by any
Lender must be made in compliance with Section 13.3 hereof.  Notwithstanding clause (ii) of this Section 13.1,
any Lender may at any time, without the consent of the Borrower or the Global
Administrative Agent, assign all or any portion of its rights under this
Agreement and any Notes to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided, however,
that no such assignment shall release the transferor Lender from its
obligations hereunder.  The Global
Administrative Agent may treat any Lender as the owner of the Loans for all
purposes hereof unless and until such Lender complies with Section 13.3
hereof in the case of an assignment thereof or, in the case of any other
transfer, a written notice of the transfer is filed with the Global
Administrative Agent.  Any such assignee
or transferee agrees by acceptance thereof to be bound by all the terms and
provisions of the Loan Documents.  Any
request, authority or consent of any Person, who at the time of making such
request or giving such authority or consent is the holder of any Loan, shall be
conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder, transferee or assignee of such
Loan.

 

13.2  Participations.

 

(A)  Permitted
Participants; Effect.  Subject to the
terms set forth in this Section 13.2, any Lender may, in the
ordinary course of its business and in accordance with applicable law, at any
time sell to one or more banks or other entities (“Participants”) participating interests in any Loan owing to
such Lender, any Commitment or Syndicated Canadian Commitment of such Lender or
any other interest of such Lender under the Loan Documents on a pro rata
basis.  In

 

94

 

the event of any such sale by a Lender of participating interests to a
Participant, such Lender’s obligations under the Loan Documents shall remain
unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties
hereto for the performance of such obligations, such Lender shall remain the
owner of all Loans for all purposes under the Loan Documents, all amounts
payable by any Borrower under this Agreement shall be determined as if such
Lender had not sold such participating interests, and such Borrower and the
Global Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with
such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under the
Loan Documents except that, for purposes of Article III hereof, the
Participants shall be entitled to the same rights as if they were Lenders
provided however that no Participant shall be entitled to receive any greater
payment under Article III than the Lender would have been entitled
to receive with respect to the rights participated.

 

(B)  Voting
Rights.  Each Lender shall retain the
sole right to approve, without the consent of any Participant, any amendment,
modification or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents, other than any
amendment, modification or waiver with respect to any Loan or Commitment or
Syndicated Canadian Commitment in which such Participant has an interest which
involves an amendment, modification or waiver with respect to a matter which,
if such Participant were a Lender hereunder, would require the consent of such
Lender under clauses (i) through (viii) of Section 8.3
hereof.

 

(C)  Benefit
of Setoff.  The Companies agree that
each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of setoff provided in Section 11.1
hereof in respect to its participating interest in amounts owing under the Loan
Documents to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest
were owing directly to it as a Lender under the Loan Documents, provided
that each Lender shall retain the right of setoff provided in Section 11.1
hereof with respect to the amount of participating interests sold to each
Participant except to the extent such Participant exercises its right of set
off.  The Lenders agree to share with
each Participant, and each Participant, by exercising the right of setoff
provided in Section 11.1 hereof, agrees to share with each Lender,
any amount received pursuant to the exercise of its right of setoff, such
amounts to be shared in accordance with Section 11.2 as if each
Participant were a Lender.

 

13.3  Assignments.

 

(A)  Permitted
Assignments.  Any Lender may, in the
ordinary course of its business and in accordance with applicable law, at any
time assign to one or more banks or other entities which is not (i) a
competitor of Harley or any Borrower or (ii) a Person that is, or is owned or
controlled by, a participant in the transportation industry (“Purchasers”) all or a portion of its rights
and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, its
Commitment, Syndicated Canadian Commitment, Swing Line Commitment, all Loans
owing to it, all of its participation interests in Syndicated Canadian Loans
and Swing Line Loans, and its obligation to participate in additional
Syndicated Canadian Loans and Swing Line Loans hereunder) in accordance with
the provisions of this Section 13.3.  Each assignment shall be of a constant, and
not a varying, ratable percentage of all of the rights and obligations of any
assigning Lender under this Agreement. 
Such assignment shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit C
hereto and shall not be permitted hereunder unless such assignment is either
for all of such Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan Documents or,
except for assignments to another Lender, an Affiliate thereof or an Approved
Fund, involves loans and commitments in an aggregate 

 

95

 

amount of at least $5,000,000. 
Notice to the Global Administrative Agent shall be required prior to any
assignment becoming effective and the consent of the Global Administrative
Agent (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld) shall be required prior
to any assignment becoming effective with respect to a Purchaser which is not a
Lender and, so long as no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, notice
to and consent of the U.S. Borrower (which consent will not be unreasonably
withheld) shall be required prior to an assignment becoming effective with
respect to a Purchaser which is not a Lender, an Affiliate thereof or an
Approved Fund.

 

(B)  Effect;
Effective Date.  Upon (i) delivery to
the Global Administrative Agent of a notice of assignment, substantially in the
form attached as Appendix I to Exhibit C hereto (a “Notice of Assignment”), together with any
consents required by Section 13.3(A) hereof, and (ii) payment of a
$3,500 fee to the Global Administrative Agent for processing such assignment,
such assignment shall become effective on the effective date specified in such
Notice of Assignment.  The Notice of
Assignment shall contain a representation by the Purchaser to the effect that
none of the consideration used to make the purchase of the Commitment and Loans
under the applicable assignment agreement are “plan assets” as defined under
ERISA and that the rights and interests of the Purchaser in and under the Loan
Documents will not be “plan assets” under ERISA.  On and after the effective date of such
assignment, such Purchaser, if not already a Lender, shall for all purposes be
a Lender party to this Agreement and any other Loan Documents executed by the
Lenders and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Lender under the
Loan Documents, to the same extent as if it were an original party hereto, and
no consent or action by any of the Borrower or the Lenders and no further
consent or action by the Global Administrative Agent shall be required to
release the transferor Lender with respect to the percentage of the Aggregate
Commitment, Loans and the Syndicated Canadian Loan participations and Swing
Line Loan participations assigned to such Purchaser.  Upon the consummation of any assignment to a
Purchaser pursuant to this Section 13.3(B), the transferor Lender,
the Global Administrative Agent and the U.S. Borrower shall, if requested by
such transferor Lender or Purchaser, make appropriate arrangements so that
replacement Notes are issued to such transferor Lender and new Notes or, as
appropriate, replacement Notes, are issued to such Purchaser.

 

(C)  The
Register.  The Global Administrative
Agent shall maintain at its address referred to in Section 14.1 a
copy of each assignment delivered to and accepted by it pursuant to this Section 13.3
and a register (the “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 from time
to time and whether such Lender is an original Lender or the assignee of
another Lender pursuant to an assignment under this Section 13.3.  The entries in the Register shall be
conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and each
Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries, the Global Administrative Agent and the
Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a
Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement.  The Register shall be available for
inspection by any Borrower or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time
to time upon reasonable prior notice.

 

13.4  Confidentiality.  (i) 
Subject to Section 13.5, the Global Administrative Agent and
the Lenders shall hold (A) all nonpublic information obtained pursuant to the
requirements of this Agreement and identified as such by Harley or any Company
and (B) except as otherwise

 

96

 

permitted by HDFS, all information related to the Licensed Marks (as
defined in Section 13.6)) and all other information which a
reasonable person would deem to be confidential and/or proprietary in light of
the nature of the information and the manner in which it was disclosed, in
accordance with such Person’s customary procedures for handling confidential
information of this nature and in accordance with safe and sound banking
practices and in any event may make disclosure reasonably required by a
prospective Transferee in connection with the contemplated participation or
assignment or as required or requested by any Governmental Authority or
representative thereof or pursuant to legal process and shall require any such
Transferee or prospective Transferee to agree (and require any of its
Transferees to agree) to comply with this Section 13.4.  In no event shall the Global Administrative
Agent or any Lender be obligated or required to return any materials furnished
by Harley, the Companies or any of their Subsidiaries; provided, however,
each prospective Transferee shall be required to agree that if it does not
become a participant or assignee it shall return all materials furnished to it
by or on behalf of Harley or any Company in connection with this Agreement.

 

(ii)           (A)
To the extent that the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, Title V/Privacy (collectively
with the related implementing regulations, the “GLBA”), shall be applicable to
the transactions contemplated herein, each of the parties hereto agrees that
(1) it shall use all non-public personal information obtained pursuant to the
requirements of this Agreement solely for the purposes for which the information
is disclosed or as otherwise permitted in conformance with the requirements of
the GLBA and (2) it shall maintain the confidentiality of such information to
the same extent as described in Section 13.4(i).  This clause shall survive the termination of
this Agreement.

 

(B)           In
the event that the Global Administrative Agent or any Lender reasonably
believes that any physical and/or electronic safeguards have been breached, and
that non-public personal information has been obtained by persons and/or
entities without authority to use or view such non-public personal information,
the Global Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, will notify
HDFS, in writing, as soon as reasonably practicable.  The Global Administrative Agent and each
Lender shall also maintain commercially reasonable processes and procedures for
the storage, retention, and disposal of documents and storage media containing
nonpublic personal information.  Nothing
in this clause shall be construed to create any third-party beneficiary rights
in any consumer or other holder of nonpublic personal information.  This clause shall survive the termination of
this Agreement.

 

(iii)          Each of the parties hereto
acknowledges that any breach of the aforesaid confidentiality obligations in
this Section 13.4 is likely to cause or threaten irreparable harm
to HDFS.  Therefore, HDFS shall be
entitled to seek equitable relief to protect its interests, including but not
limited to preliminary and permanent injunctive relief, as well as monetary
damages. Nothing stated herein will be construed to limit any other remedies
available to the parties hereto. This section shall survive the
termination of this Agreement.

 

13.5  Dissemination of
Information. 
Each of the Companies authorizes each Lender to disclose to any
Participant or Purchaser or any other Person acquiring an interest in the Loan
Documents by operation of law (each a “Transferee”)
and any prospective Transferee any and all information in such Lender’s
possession concerning the Companies and their Subsidiaries; provided
that prior to any such disclosure, such prospective Transferee shall agree to
preserve in

 

97

 

accordance with Section 13.4 the confidentiality of any
confidential information described therein.

 

13.6  Non-Use of HDFS’
Licensed Marks. 
(i)  HDFS and its affiliates have
the licensed right to use certain trademarks, logos, etc. relating to
Harley-Davidson Motorcycles, HDFS and their affiliates (the “Licensed Marks”).  Except as permitted by the following
sentences, none of the Global Administrative Agent, the Lenders or their
Affiliates are authorized to use such Licensed Marks or Harley’s or HDFS’s text
name and logo on forms, in legal documents, in advertising, marketing materials,
in press releases or any other document or material.  In the event the Global Administrative Agent,
any Lender or any of their Affiliates wish to use said Licensed Marks, such
Person must obtain HDFS’s prior written approval, which said approval is at
HDFS’s sole and absolute discretion and subject to subsequent periodic review
of such use and to such reasonable specifications of HDFS to the extent such
specifications are directly related to the legal maintenance, whether such is
before or after lapse or termination of this Agreement.  The Harley-Davidson text name, logo(s) and
registered trademark are not to be used by the Global Administrative Agent, any
Lender or any of their Affiliates in any way before, during or after the term
of this Agreement, unless prior written consent is obtained from HDFS.  This section shall survive the
termination of this Agreement.

 

(ii)           Each
of the parties hereto acknowledges that any breach of the aforestated non-use
obligations in this Section 13.6 is likely to cause or threaten
irreparable harm to HDFS.  Therefore, in
the event of any such breach, HDFS shall be entitled to seek equitable relief
to protect its interests, including but not limited to preliminary and
permanent injunctive relief, as well as monetary damages.  Nothing stated in this Section 13.6
shall be construed to limit any other remedies available to any party hereto.

 

ARTICLE XIV  NOTICES

 

14.1  Giving Notice.  Except as otherwise permitted by Article II
with respect to Borrowing Notices, all notices and other communications
provided to any party hereto under this Agreement or any other Loan Documents
shall be in writing or by telex or by facsimile and addressed or delivered to
such party at its address set forth below its signature hereto or at such other
address as may be designated by such party in a notice to the other
parties.  Any notice, if mailed and

14.2  Change of Address.  Any of the Companies, the Global Administrative
Agent, the Global Swing Line Lender and any Lender may each change the address

hereto (or, in the case of any Lender, by notice in writing to the U.S.
Borrower and the Global Administrative Agent).

SCHEDULE III

 

MANDATORY
COST

 

1.                                       The
Mandatory Cost is an addition to the interest rate to compensate Lenders for
the cost of compliance with (a) the requirements of the Bank of England and/or
the Financial Services Authority (or, in either case, any other authority which
replaces all or any of its functions) or (b) the requirements of the European
Central Bank.

 

2.                                       On the first
day of each Interest Period (or as soon as possible thereafter) the Global
Administrative Agent shall calculate, as a percentage rate, a rate (the “Associated Costs Rate”) for each Lender, in
accordance with the paragraphs set out below. 
The Mandatory Cost will be calculated by the Global Administrative Agent
as a weighted average of the Lenders’ Associated Costs Rates (weighted in
proportion to the percentage participation of each Lender in the relevant Loan)
and will be expressed as a percentage rate per annum.

 

3.                                       The
Associated Costs Rate for any Lender lending from a Facility Office in a
Participating Member State will be the percentage notified by that Lender to
the Global Administrative Agent.  This
percentage will be certified by that Lender in its notice to the Global
Administrative Agent to be its reasonable determination of the cost (expressed
as a percentage of that Lender’s participation in all Loans made from that
Facility Office) of complying with the minimum reserve requirements of the European
Central Bank in respect of loans made from that Facility Office.

 

4.                                       The
Associated Costs Rate for any Lender lending from a Facility Office in the
United Kingdom will be calculated by the Global Administrative Agent as
follows:

 

(a)                                  in
relation to a Loan in Pounds Sterling:

 

	
  

  	
   per
  cent. per annum

  	
   

  

 

(b)                                 in
relation to a Loan in any currency other than Pounds Sterling:

 

	
  

  	
   per
  cent. per annum.

  	
   

  

 

Where:

 

A                                      is
the percentage of Eligible Liabilities (assuming these to be in excess of any
stated minimum) which that Lender is from time to time required to maintain as
an interest free cash ratio deposit with the Bank of England to comply with
cash ratio requirements.

 

 

B                                        is
the percentage rate of interest (excluding the Applicable Margin and the
Mandatory Cost and, if the Loan is an Unpaid Sum, the additional rate of
interest specified in Section 2.11 (Default
Rate) payable for the relevant Interest Period on the Loan.

 

C                                        is
the percentage (if any) of Eligible Liabilities which that Lender is required
from time to time to maintain as interest bearing Special Deposits with the
Bank of England.

 

D                                       is
the percentage rate per annum payable by the Bank of England to the Global
Administrative Agent on interest bearing Special Deposits.

 

E                                         is
designed to compensate Lenders for amounts payable under the Fees Rules and is
calculated by the Global Administrative Agent as being the average of the most
recent rates of charge supplied by the Reference Banks to the Global
Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph 7 below and expressed in pounds per
£1,000,000.

 

5.                                       For the
purposes of this Schedule:

 

(a)                                  “Eligible Liabilities” and “Special
Deposits” have the meanings given to them from time to time under or
pursuant to the Bank of England Act 1998 or (as may be appropriate) by the Bank
of England;

 

(b)                                 “Facility Office” means the office or offices notified by a
Lender to the Global Administrative Agent in writing on or before the date it
becomes a Lender (or, following that date, by not less than five Business Days’
written notice) as the office or offices through which it will perform its
obligations under this Agreement.

 

(c)                                  “Fees Rules” means the rules on periodic fees contained in
the FSA Supervision Manual or such other law or regulation as may be in force
from time to time in respect of the payment of fees for the acceptance of
deposits;

 

(d)                                 “Fee Tariffs” means the fee tariffs specified in the Fees
Rules under the activity group A.1 Deposit acceptors (ignoring any minimum fee
or zero rated fee required pursuant to the Fees Rules but taking into account
any applicable discount rate);

 

(e)                                  “Participating Member State” means any member state of the
European Union that adopts or has adopted the euro as its lawful currency in
accordance with legislation of the European Union relating to economic and
monetary union.

 

(f)                                    “Reference Banks” means, in relation to Mandatory Cost, the
principal London offices of JPMorgan Chase Bank and Citibank, N.A. and, in
relation to EURIBOR, the principal offices of JPMorgan Chase Bank and Citibank,
N.A. in the relevant jurisdiction or such

 

 

other banks as
may be appointed by the Global Administrative Agent in consultation with the
Borrowers.

 

(g)                                 “Tariff Base” has the meaning given to it in, and will be
calculated in accordance with, the Fees Rules.

 

(h)                                 “Unpaid Sum” means any sum due and payable but unpaid by a
Borrower under the Loan Documents.

 

6.                                       In
application of the above formulae, A, B, C and D will be included in the
formulae as percentages (i.e. 5 per cent. will be included in the formula as 5
and not as 0.05).  A negative result
obtained by subtracting D from B shall be taken as zero.  The resulting figures shall be rounded to
four decimal places.

 

7.                                       If
requested by the Global Administrative Agent, each Reference Bank shall, as soon
as practicable after publication by the Financial Services Authority, supply to
the Global Administrative Agent, the rate of charge payable by that Reference
Bank to the Financial Services Authority pursuant to the Fees Rules in respect
of the relevant financial year of the Financial Services Authority (calculated
for this purpose by that Reference Bank as being the average of the Fee Tariffs
applicable to that Reference Bank for that financial year) and expressed in
pounds per £1,000,000 of the Tariff Base of that Reference Bank.

 

8.                                       Each
Lender shall supply any information required by the Global Administrative Agent
for the purpose of calculating its Associated Costs Rate.  In particular, but without limitation, each
Lender shall supply the following information on or prior to the date on which
it becomes a Lender:

 

(a)                                  the
jurisdiction of its Facility Office; and

 

(b)                                 any other
information that the Global Administrative Agent may reasonably require for
such purpose.

 

Each Lender shall promptly notify the Global Administrative Agent of
any change to the information provided by it pursuant to this paragraph.

 

9.                                       The
percentages of each Lender for the purpose of A and C above and the rates of
charge of each Reference Bank for the purpose of E above shall be determined by
the Global Administrative Agent based upon the information supplied to it
pursuant to paragraphs 7 and 8 above and on the assumption that, unless a
Lender notifies the Global Administrative Agent to the contrary, each Lender’s
obligations in relation to cash ratio deposits and Special Deposits are the
same as those of a typical bank from its jurisdiction of incorporation with a
Facility Office in the same jurisdiction as its Facility Office.

 

 

10.                                 The Global
Administrative Agent shall have no liability to any person if such
determination results in an Associated Costs Rate which over or under
compensates any Lender and shall be entitled to assume that the information
provided by any Lender or Reference Bank pursuant to paragraphs 3, 7 and 8 above
is true and correct in all respects.

 

11.                                 The Global
Administrative Agent shall distribute the additional amounts received as a
result of the Mandatory Cost to the Lenders on the basis of the Associated
Costs Rate for each Lender based on the information provided by each Lender and
each Reference Bank pursuant to paragraphs 3, 7 and 8 above.

 

12.                                 Any
determination by the Global Administrative Agent pursuant to this Schedule in
relation to a formula, the Mandatory Cost, an Associated Costs Rate or any
amount payable to a Lender shall, in the absence of manifest error, be
conclusive and binding on all parties hereto.

 

13.                                 The Global
Administrative Agent may from time to time, after consultation with the
relevant Borrowers and Lenders, determine and notify to all parties hereto any
amendments which are required to be made to this Schedule in order to
comply with any change in law, regulation or any requirements from time to time
imposed by the Bank of England, the Financial Services Authority or the
European Central Bank (or, in any case, any other authority which replaces all
or any of its functions) and any such determination shall, in the absence of
manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all parties hereto.EXHIBIT 10.18

 

HARLEY-DAVIDSON, INC.

 

Director Compensation Policy

Effective May 3, 2003

 

This
compensation policy has been developed to compensate non-employee directors (“Directors”)
of Harley-Davidson, Inc. (the “Company”) for their time, commitment and
contributions to the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of the Company.  The Annual Retainer Fee has been increased
based on the following: Directors will no longer receive meeting fees for each
Board meeting and Committee meeting attended; Directors will no longer receive
annual grants of stock options; and the number of meetings of the Directors,
particularly meetings of the Committees of the Board, has increased.  It is expected that Directors will attend all
meetings of the Board and of its Committees.

Annual Retainer
Fees paid to Directors of the Board will be paid within ten (10) business days
after the first business day following the annual meeting of the shareholders
of the Company (“Annual Meeting”).  In the
event a Director is elected to the Board at a time other than at the Annual
Meeting, the Annual Retainer Fee will be prorated on a quarterly basis based on
the quarter a Director is elected to the Board and paid within ten (10)
business days after the first business day after the Director’s first Board or
committee meeting.

 

Directors will be
eligible to elect to receive Annual Retainer Fees in cash or Company Common
Stock (based upon the fair market value of the Common Stock on the first
business day after the Annual Meeting or the first business day after the
Director’s first Board or committee meeting) and to defer all Annual Retainer
Fees paid in cash or Company Common Stock pursuant to plans adopted by the
Company from time to time.  Directors
must receive a minimum of one-half (1⁄2) of their Annual Retainer Fees in Company
Common Stock until the Director reaches the stock ownership goals established
in the Director and Senior Executive Stock Ownership Guidelines for
Harley-Davidson, Inc.

 

II.                                     Additional
Compensation for and Payments to Non-Employee Directors

 

Clothing
Allowance.  Each
Director shall receive an annual clothing allowance of $1,500 to purchase
Harley-Davidson MotorClothes® apparel and accessories.

 

Discount
on Company Products.  
Each Director shall receive the same discount on Company products that
is available to all Company employees.

 

Expenses.  The Company will reimburse reasonable travel
and related business expenses that a Director incurs for attendance at all
meetings of the Board and committees and in connection with other Board of
Directors or Company business.
