in the payment thereof.

have received notice of such LC Disbursement prior to 4:00 p.m., London time,
on the date such LC Disbursement is made, or, if such notice has not been
received by the Borrower prior to such time on such date, then not later than
12:00 noon, London time, on (x) the Euro-Currency Business Day following the
date that the Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is received prior
to 4:00 p.m., London time, on the day of receipt or (y) the second
Euro-Currency Business Day immediately following the day that the Borrower
receives such notice, if such notice is not received prior to such time on the
day of receipt; provided that the
Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request
in accordance with Section 2.03 or 2.04 that such payment be financed with (A)
in the case of LC Disbursements denominated in Dollars, an ABR Revolving
Borrowing (of not less than $10,000,000) or a Swingline Loan (of not less than
$500,000) in an equivalent Dollar amount and (B) in the case of LC
Disbursements denominated in an Alternative Currency, a Euro-Currency Borrowing
for an equivalent amount in such currency and, to the extent so financed, the
Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by
the resulting ABR Revolving Borrowing or Swingline Loan or Euro-Currency
Loan.  If the Borrower fails to make such
payment when due, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the
applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the Borrower in respect
thereof and such Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof.  Promptly following receipt of such notice,
each Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent its Applicable Percentage of
the payment then due from the Borrower, in the same manner as provided in
Section 2.06 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.06 shall
apply, mutatis mutandis, to the
payment obligations of the Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall
promptly pay to the Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the
Lenders.  Promptly following receipt by
the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Borrower pursuant to this
paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the
Issuing Bank or, to the extent that

 

23

 

Lenders have made payments
pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Bank, then to such Lenders
and the Issuing Bank as their interests may appear.  Any payment made by a Lender pursuant to this
paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Bank for any LC Disbursement (other than the
funding of ABR Revolving Loans or a Swingline Loan as contemplated above) shall
not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to
reimburse such LC Disbursement.

 

(g)                                 Obligations
Absolute.  The Borrower’s obligation
to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in paragraph (f) of this Section
shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed
strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all
circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability
of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein,
(ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to
be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being
untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the Issuing Bank under a
Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does
not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (iv) any other event or
circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that
might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable
discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrower’s obligations
hereunder.  Neither the Administrative
Agent, the Lenders nor the Issuing Bank, nor any of their Related Parties,
shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with
the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to
make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred
to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or
delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication
under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to
make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or
any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be
construed to excuse the Issuing Bank from liability to the Borrower to the
extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in
respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by
applicable law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by the Issuing Bank’s
failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents
presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof.  The parties hereto expressly agree that, in
the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the
Issuing Bank (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), the
Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such
determination.  In furtherance of the
foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that,
with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in
substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank
may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents
without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or
information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such
documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such
Letter of Credit.

 

(h)                                 Disbursement
Procedures.  The Issuing Bank shall,
promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to
represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit.  The Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the
Administrative Agent and the Borrower by telephone (confirmed by facsimile) of
such demand for payment and whether the Issuing Bank has made or will make an
LC Disbursement thereunder; provided
that any failure to give or delay

 

24

 

in giving such notice shall not
relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse the Issuing Bank and the
Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement.

 

(i)                                     Interim
Interest.  If the Issuing Bank shall
make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Borrower shall reimburse such LC
Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid
amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date
such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Borrower reimburses
such LC Disbursement, (i) if such amount is denominated in Dollars, at the rate
per annum then applicable to ABR Revolving Loans, (ii) if such amount is
denominated in an Alternative Currency, at the rate per annum equal to the sum
of the Applicable Rate with respect to Euro-Currency Loans plus the rate per
annum at which one-day deposits in relevant currency in an amount approximately
equal to such unpaid amount are offered by the principal London office of the
Administrative Agent in the London Interbank market for such day; provided that, if the Borrower fails to
reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (f) of this
Section, then Section 2.12(d) shall apply. 
Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of
the Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment
by any Lender pursuant to paragraph (f) of this Section to reimburse the
Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such
payment.

 

(j)                                     Replacement
of the Issuing Bank.  The Issuing
Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower, the
Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing
Bank.  The Administrative Agent shall
notify the Lenders of any such replacement of the Issuing Bank.  At the time any such replacement shall become
effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of
the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.11(b).  From and after the effective date of any such
replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and
obligations of the Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of
Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing
Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing
Bank, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall
require.  After the replacement of an
Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto
and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank
under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to
such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of
Credit.

 

(k)                                  Cash
Collateralization.  If any Event of
Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Domestic Business Day that the
Company receives notice from the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Required
Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, Lenders with LC
Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total LC Exposure) demanding the
deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, the Company shall
deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the
Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Lenders, an amount in cash in
the relevant currency equal to the LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued
and unpaid interest thereon; provided
that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral will become effective
immediately, and such deposit will become immediately due and payable, without
demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default
with respect to any Borrower described in clause (g) or (h) of Article 8.  Such deposit shall be held by the Administrative
Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the
Borrower under this Agreement. The Company hereby grants a lien and

 

25

 

security interest in, and sole
and exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of
withdrawal, over such account to the Administrative Agent.  Other than any interest earned on the
investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and
sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and at the Borrowers’ risk and
expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. 
Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in
such account.  Moneys in such account
shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the Issuing Bank for
LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so
applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of
the Borrowers for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans
has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Lenders with LC Exposure
representing greater than 50% of the total LC Exposure), be applied to satisfy
other obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement.  If the Company is required to provide an
amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event
of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be
returned to the Company within three Business Days after all Events of Default
have been cured or waived.

 

Section 2.06.  Funding of Borrowings. (a)  Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by
it hereunder on the proposed date thereof:

 

(i)                                     if
such Borrowing is to be made in Dollars, not later than 12:00 Noon (New York
City time), in funds immediately available in New York City, to the account of
the Administrative Agent most recently designated for such purpose by notice to
the Lenders; provided that
Swingline Loans shall be made as provided in Section 2.04; or

 

(ii)                                  if
such Borrowing is to be made in an Alternative Currency, not later than 12:00
Noon (London time), in such Alternative Currency (in such funds as may then be
customary for the settlement of international transactions in such Alternative
Currency) to the account of the Administrative Agent as shall have most
recently been designated by the Administrative Agent for such purpose by notice
to the Lenders.

 

The
Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrower by promptly
crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of the Borrower
designated by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request; provided that Loans made to finance the
reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.05(f) shall be
remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Issuing Bank.

 

(b)                                 Unless
the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the
proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the
Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative
Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in
accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and may, in reliance upon such
assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount.  In such event, if a Lender has not in fact
made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative
Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to
the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with
interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made
available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the
Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Effective Rate (if such amount was
distributed in

 

26

 

Dollars) or the rate per annum
at which one-day deposits in the relevant currency are offered by the principal
London office of the Administrative Agent in the London interbank market (if
such amount was distributed in an Alternative Currency).

 

Section 2.07.  Interest Elections.  (a) Each Dollar-Denominated
Revolving Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable
Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Euro-Dollar Borrowing, shall have an
initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request.  Thereafter, the Borrower may elect to convert
such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the
case of a Euro-Dollar Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as
provided in this Section.  The Borrower
may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected
Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the
Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising
each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing.  This Section shall not apply to Swingline
Borrowings, which may not be converted or continued.

 

(b)                                 To
make an election pursuant to Section 2.07(a), the Borrower shall notify the Administrative
Agent of such election by telephone by the time that a Borrowing Request would
be required under Section 2.03 if the Borrower were requesting a
Dollar-Denominated Loan of the Type resulting from such election to be made on
the effective date of such election. 
Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and
shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or facsimile to the Administrative
Agent of a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by the
Administrative Agent and signed by the Borrower.

 

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

 

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

 

(ii)                    the effective
date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which
shall be a Domestic Business Day in the case of an ABR Borrowing and a
Euro-Dollar Business Day in the case of a Euro-Dollar Borrowing;

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

27

 

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

 

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

 

(f)                                    Each
Alternative Currency Loan shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in
the applicable Borrowing Request. 
Thereafter, the Borrower may elect to continue such Borrowing and may
elect Interest Periods therefore, by notifying the Administrative Agent of such
election by telephone by the time and at the office that a Borrowing Request
would be required under Section 2.03 if the Borrower were requesting an
Alternative Currency Loan to be made on the effective date of such
election.  The Borrower may elect
different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing,
in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders
holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such
portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing.  Promptly following receipt of such Interest
Election Request the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details
thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.  If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely
Interest Election Request with respect to an Alternative Currency Borrowing
prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, or any Interest
Election Request fails to specify an Interest Period, then unless such
Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, the Borrower shall be deemed to have
elected a subsequent Interest Period of one month’s duration.

 

Section 2.08.  Termination and Reduction of
Commitments.  (a) Unless previously
terminated, the Commitments shall terminate on the Maturity Date.

 

(b)                                 The
Company may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the
Commitments; provided that (i)
each reduction of the Commitments shall be in an amount that is an integral
multiple of $5,000,000 and not less than $10,000,000 and (ii) the Company shall
not terminate or reduce the Commitments if, after giving effect to any
concurrent prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.10, the total
Revolving Credit Exposures of all Lenders would exceed the total Commitments.

 

(c)                                  The
Company shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or
reduce the Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section at least five
Domestic Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or
reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof.  Promptly following receipt of any notice, the
Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof.  Each notice delivered by the Company pursuant
to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided
that a notice of termination of the Commitments

 

28

 

delivered by the Company may
state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit
facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Company (by notice
to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if
such condition is not satisfied.  Any
termination or reduction of the Commitments shall be permanent.  Each reduction of the Commitments shall be
made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments.

 

Section 2.09.  Repayment of Loans; Evidence of
Debt.  (a) The Borrower hereby
unconditionally promises to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account
of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan on the
Maturity Date, and (ii) to the Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal
amount of each Swingline Loan on the earlier of the Maturity Date and the date
which is 15 Domestic Business Days after such Swingline Loan is made.

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

(e)                                  Any
Lender may request that Loans made by it to any Borrower be evidenced by a
promissory note.  In such event, such
Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note
payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such
Lender and its registered assigns) and in a form approved by the Administrative
Agent and the Borrower.  Thereafter, the
Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times
(including after assignment pursuant to Section 12.04) be represented by one or
more promissory notes in such form payable to the order of the payee named
therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and
its registered assigns).

 

Section 2.10.  Prepayment of Loans.  (a)  The Borrower shall have
the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or
in part, subject to prior notice in accordance with paragraph (b) of this
Section.

 

(b)                                 The
Borrower shall notify the Administrative 
Agent (and, in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, the Swingline
Lender) by telephone (confirmed by facsimile)

 

29

 

of any prepayment hereunder (i)
in the case of prepayment of a Euro-Dollar Borrowing, not later than 11:00
a.m., New York City time, three Euro-Dollar Business Days before the date of
prepayment, (ii) in the case of prepayment of an Alternative Currency
Borrowing, to its London office not later than 11:00 a.m. London time three
Euro-Currency Business Days before the date of prepayment, (iii) in the case of
prepayment of an ABR Revolving Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York
City time, one Domestic Business Day before the date of prepayment or
(iv) in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, not later than 12:00
noon, New York City time (London time if such Swingline Loan is denominated in
Alternative Currencies or made to a Borrower other than the Company), on the
date of prepayment.  Each such notice
shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal
amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid; provided that, if a notice of prepayment
is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the
Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.08, then such notice of prepayment may
be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section
2.08.  Promptly following receipt of any
such notice relating to a Revolving Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall
advise the Lenders of the contents thereof.  
Each partial prepayment of any Revolving Borrowing shall be in an amount
that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Revolving Borrowing of
the same Type as provided in Section 2.02. 
Each prepayment shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the
prepaid Borrowing.  Prepayments shall be
accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.12.

 

Section 2.11.  Fees. (a)  The Company
agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a
commitment fee in Dollars, which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate on the
average daily unused amount of the Commitment of such Lender during the period
from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the date on which such
Commitment terminates.  Accrued
commitment fees shall be payable in arrears on the last day of March, June,
September and December of each year and on the date on which the Commitments
terminate, commencing on the first such date to occur after the date
hereof.  All commitment fees shall be
computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual
number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

 

(b)                                 The
Borrower agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each
Lender a participation fee in Dollars with respect to its participations in
Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at the same Applicable Rate used to
determine the interest rate applicable to Euro-Dollar Loans on such Lender’s
average daily LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to
unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the
Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such Lender’s
Commitment terminates and the date on which such Lender ceases to have any LC
Exposure and (ii) to the Issuing Bank a fronting fee in Dollars, which shall
accrue at the rate of 0.125% per annum on the average daily LC Exposure
(excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements)
during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the
later of the date of termination of the Commitments and the date on which there
ceases to be any LC Exposure, as well as the Issuing Bank’s standard fees with respect
to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or
processing of drawings thereunder. 
Participation fees and fronting fees accrued through and including the
last day of March, June, September and December of each year shall be payable
on the third Domestic Business Day following such last day, commencing on the
first such date to occur after the Effective Date; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on
which the Commitments terminate and

 

30

 

any such fees accruing after
the date on which the Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand.  Any other fees payable to the Issuing Bank
pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within 10 days after demand.  All participation fees and fronting fees
shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for
the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the
last day).

 

(c)                                  All
fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available
funds, to the Administrative Agent (or to the Issuing Bank, in the case of fees
payable to it) for distribution, in the case of commitment fees and
participation fees, to the Lenders.  Fees
paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances.

 

Section 2.12.  Interest.  (a) The Loans comprising each
ABR Borrowing shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the
Applicable Rate.

 

(b)                                 The
Loans comprising each Euro-Currency Borrowing shall bear interest at the Adjusted
LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the
Applicable Rate.

 

(c)                                  The
Loans comprising each Swingline Borrowing shall bear interest, at the election
of the applicable Borrower, at (x) solely in the case of Swingline Loans denominated
in Dollars, the Alternative Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate, (y) the
Adjusted LIBO Rate that would be applicable to Euro-Currency Loans with a
one-month Interest Period commencing on the date such loan is made, plus the
Applicable Rate, or (z) at such other rate as shall from time to time be agreed
between the Swingline Lender and the applicable Borrower.

 

(d)                                 Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other
amount payable by the 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 in the preceding paragraphs of this Section or (ii) in the case of any
other amount, 2% plus the rate applicable to ABR Loans as provided in paragraph
(a) of this Section.

 

(e)                                  Accrued
interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date
for such Loan and, in the case of Revolving Loans, upon termination of the
Commitments; provided that (i)
interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (d) of this Section shall be payable on
demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other
than a prepayment of an ABR Revolving Loan prior to the end of the Availability
Period), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be
payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of
any conversion of any Euro-Currency Loan prior to the end of the current
Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the
effective date of such conversion.

 

(f)                                    All
interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except
that (i) interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times
when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on
the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year) and (ii) interest
computed with respect to Loans denominated in Pound

 

31

 

Sterling shall be computed on
the basis of a year of 365 days, and in each case shall be payable for the
actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last
day).  The applicable Alternate Base Rate
or Adjusted LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such
determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

 

Section 2.13.  Alternate Rate of Interest.  If prior to the commencement of
any Interest Period for a Euro-Currency Borrowing:

 

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

 

(b)                                 the
Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Adjusted LIBO
Rate applicable to Euro-Currency Borrowings in the relevant currency for such
Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders
(or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such
Borrowing for such Interest Period;

 

then the
Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Company and the Lenders
by telephone or facsimile as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the
Administrative Agent notifies the Company and the Lenders that the
circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist (which the
Administrative Agent shall do promptly after becoming aware thereof), (i) any
Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Revolving
Borrowing to, or continuation of any Revolving Borrowing as, a Euro-Currency
Borrowing of the affected currency shall be ineffective and (ii) if any
Borrowing Request requests a Euro-Currency Borrowing in the affected currency,
such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing in an equal Dollar Amount.

 

Section 2.14.  Increased Costs.  (a) If any Change in Law shall

 

(i)                                     impose,
modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement
against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by,
any Lender or its Applicable Lending Office (except any such reserve
requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate) or the Issuing Bank; or

 

(ii)                                  impose
on any Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office) or the Issuing Bank or the
London interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or
Euro-Currency Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or
participation therein;

 

and the result
of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender (or its
Applicable Lending Office) of making or maintaining any Euro-Currency Loan (or
of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to
such Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office) or the Issuing Bank of
participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the
amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender (or its Applicable
Lending Office) or the Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest
or otherwise), then the Company will pay (or will cause the relevant Borrower
to pay) to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional
amount or amounts as will

 

32

 

compensate
such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such additional costs
incurred or reduction suffered.

 

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

 

(c)                                  A
certificate of a Lender or the Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts
necessary to compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or its holding company,
as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section
and the calculation of such amount or amounts in reasonable detail shall be
delivered to the Company and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  The Company or the relevant Borrower, as the
case may be, shall pay such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the
amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt
thereof.

 

(d)                                 Failure
or delay on the part of any Lender or the Issuing Bank to demand compensation
pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the
Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation, as the case may be; provided that the Borrower shall not be
required to compensate a Lender or the Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section
2.14 for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 120 days prior to
the date that such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the
Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions
and of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation
therefor; provided  further that, if the Change in Law giving
rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 120-day
period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive
effect thereof.

 

Section 2.15.  Break Funding Payments.  In the event of (a) the payment of
any principal of any Euro-Currency Loan (or Swingline Loan that is not an ABR
Loan) other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto
(including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any
Euro-Currency Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable
thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any
Euro-Currency Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant
hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.10(b)
and is revoked in accordance therewith) or (d) the assignment of any
Euro-Currency Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable
thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.19,
then, in any such event, the relevant Borrower shall compensate each Lender for
the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event.  Such loss, cost or expense to any Lender
shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the
excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which

 

33

 

would have accrued on the
principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted LIBO
Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date
of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or,
in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that
would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of
interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the
interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement
of such period, for deposits in Dollars or other applicable currency of a
comparable amount and period from other banks in the London interbank
market.  A certificate of any Lender
setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive
pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be
conclusive absent manifest error.  The
Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate
within 10 days after receipt thereof.

 

Section 2.16.  Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by or on
account of any obligation of any Borrower under the Loan Documents shall be
made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other
Taxes; provided that if any
Borrower shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from
such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so
that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to
additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative Agent, Lender or
Issuing Bank (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would
have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Borrower shall
make such deductions and (iii) such Borrower shall pay the full amount
deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable
law.

 

(b)                                 In
addition, each Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental
Authority in accordance with applicable law.

 

(c)                                  The
relevant Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and the
Issuing Bank, within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount
of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent, such
Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment
by or on account of any obligation of such Borrower under the Loan Documents
(including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or
attributable to amounts payable under this Section) and any penalties, interest
and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or
not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or
asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority; provided, that the relevant Borrower shall not be obligated
to indemnify the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the
case may be, pursuant to this Section in respect of penalties, interest or
similar liabilities arising therefrom or with respect thereto to the extent
such penalties, interest or similar liabilities are attributable to the gross
negligence or willful misconduct by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or
the Issuing Bank.  A certificate as to
the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the relevant Borrower by a
Lender or the Issuing Bank, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or
on behalf of a Lender or the Issuing Bank, shall be conclusive absent manifest
error.

 

(d)                                 As
soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by
any Borrower to a Governmental Authority, such Borrower shall deliver to the
Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by
such Governmental Authority

 

34

 

evidencing such payment, a copy
of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment
reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

 

(e)                                  Any
Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of
withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which a Borrower is
located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to
payments under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Company (with a copy to
the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law,
such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law
or reasonably requested by the Company as will permit such payments to be made
without withholding or at a reduced rate.

 

(f)                                    If
the Administrative Agent or a Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that
it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been
indemnified by any Borrower or with respect to which any Borrower has paid
additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.16, it shall pay over such refund
to such Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or
additional amounts paid, by such Borrower under this Section 2.16 with respect
to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all
out-of-pocket expenses with respect to such refund of the Administrative Agent
or such Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the
relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided, that such Borrower, upon the
request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount
paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges
imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or
such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to
repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This Section shall not be
construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available
its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems
confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.

 

Section 2.17.  Foreign Subsidiary Costs.  If the cost to any Lender of
making or maintaining any Loan to or of issuing or maintaining any Letter of
Credit for the account of an Eligible Subsidiary is increased, or (except as
permitted by Section 2.16), the amount of any sum received or receivable by any
Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office) is reduced in each case by an amount
deemed by such Lender to be material, by reason of the fact that such Eligible
Subsidiary is incorporated in, or conducts business in, a jurisdiction outside
the United States, the Company shall indemnify such Lender for such increased
cost or reduction within 10 days after demand by such Lender (with a copy to
the Administrative Agent).  A certificate
of such Lender claiming compensation under this Section 2.17 and setting forth
the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder shall be conclusive
in the absence of manifest error.

 

Section 2.18.  Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment;
Sharing of Set-offs. (a) The Borrower shall make each payment of
principal of, and interest on, the Dollar-Denominated Loans, of LC Exposures
denominated in Dollars and of fees hereunder, not later than 12:00 Noon (New
York City time) on the date when due, in Dollars in funds immediately available
in New York City.  The Borrower shall
make each payment of principal of, and interest on, the Alternative Currency
Loans and of LC Exposures denominated in an Alternative Currency in the
relevant Alternative Currency in such funds as may then be customary for the
settlement of international transactions in such Alternative Currency.  Each such payment shall be made without
reduction by reason of any set-off or counterclaim.  Any amounts received after such

 

35

 

time on any date may, in the
discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the
next succeeding Domestic Business Day (in the case of amounts denominated in
Dollars) or Euro-Currency Business Day (in the case of amounts denominated in
an Alternative Currency) for purposes of calculating interest thereon.  All such payments shall be made to the
Administrative Agent at its offices at 270 Park Avenue, New York, New York,
except payments to be made directly to the Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender as
expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.14,
2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 12.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled
thereto.  The Administrative Agent shall
distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person
to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof.  If any payment hereunder shall be due on a
day that is not a Domestic Business Day (in the case of ABR Loans and LC
Exposures denominated in Dollars) or a Euro-Currency Business Day (in the case
of Euro-Currency Loans and LC Exposures denominated in an Alternative
Currency), the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding
Domestic Business Day (in the case of ABR Loans and LC Exposures denominated in
Dollars) or Euro-Currency Business Day 
(in the case of Euro-Currency Loans and LC Exposures denominated an
Alternative Currency), and, in the case of any payment accruing interest,
interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension.

 

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

 

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

 

36

 

acquiring a participation
pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Borrower
rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully
as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such
participation.

 

(d)                                 Unless
the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Company or the
applicable Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the
Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Bank
hereunder that a Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent
may assume that such Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance
herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders
or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount due.  In such event, if such Borrower has not in
fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as the
case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on
demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or Issuing Bank with interest
thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to
it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) the
Federal Funds Effective Rate (if such distribution was made in Dollars) or (ii)
the rate per annum at which one-day deposits in the relevant currency are
offered by the principal London office of the Administrative Agent in the
London interbank market (if such distribution was made in an Alternative
Currency).

 

(e)                                  If
any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to
Section 2.04(c), 2.05(e), 2.05(f), 2.06(b) or 2.18(d), then the Administrative
Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof),
apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the
account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections
until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.

 

Section 2.19.  Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of
Lenders. (a)  If any Lender requests compensation under Section
2.14 or 2.17, or if any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to
any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant
to Section 2.16, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a
different Applicable Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder
or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices,
branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or
assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section
2.14, 2.16 or 2.17, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not
subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise
be disadvantageous to such Lender.  The
Company hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any
Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

 

(b)                                 If
any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14 or 2.17, or if any Borrower
is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental
Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16, or if any
Lender defaults in its obligation to fund Loans hereunder, then the Company
may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the
Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without
recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in
Section 12.04), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement
to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be
another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Company shall have
received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, which consent
shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received

 

37

 

payment of an amount equal to
the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements
and Swingline Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other
amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such
outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Company or the
relevant Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case
of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section
2.14 or 2.17 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.16, such assignment
will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments.  A Lender shall not be required to make any
such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by
such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Company to require
such  assignment and delegation cease to
apply.

 

Section 2.20.  Currency Equivalents.  (a) The Administrative Agent shall
determine the Dollar Amount of each Alternative Currency Loan as of the first
day of each Interest Period applicable thereto and, in the case of any such
Interest Period of more than three months, at three-month intervals after the
first day thereof, and shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of
each Dollar Amount so determined by it. 
Each such determination shall be based on the Spot Rate (i) on the date
of the related Borrowing Request for purposes of the initial such determination
for any Alternative Currency Loan and (ii) on the fourth Euro-Currency Business
Day prior to the date as of which such Dollar Amount is to be determined, for
purposes of any subsequent determination.

 

(b)                                 The
Administrative Agent shall determine the LC Exposure related to each Letter of
Credit as of the date of issuance thereof and at three-month intervals after
the date of issuance thereof.  Each such
determination shall be based on the Spot Rate (i) on the date of the related
notice of issuance, in the case of the initial determination in respect of any
Letter of Credit and (ii) on the fourth Euro-Currency Business Day prior to the
date as of which such Dollar Amount is to be determined, in the case of any
subsequent determination with respect to an outstanding Letter of Credit.

 

(c)                                  If
after giving effect to any such determination of a Dollar Amount, the total
Revolving Credit Exposures of all Lenders exceed the aggregate amount of the
Commitments or the aggregate Dollar Amount of Alternative Currency Loans and LC
Exposures denominated in an Alternative Currency exceeds 105% of the
Alternative Currency Sublimit, the Borrowers shall within five Euro-Currency
Business Days prepay outstanding Loans (as selected by the Company and notified
to the Lenders through the Administrative Agent not less than three
Euro-Currency Business Days prior to the date of prepayment) or take other
action to the extent necessary to eliminate any such excess.

(b) a “holding company” or a “subsidiary company” of a holding company as

No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to

excess, if any, of the present value of all accumulated benefit obligations
under each Plan (based on the assumptions used for purposes of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 87) over the fair market value of the
assets of such Plan, as of the date of the most recent financial statements
reflecting such amounts, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect.

 

Section 3.15.  No Material Misstatements.  (a) As of the Effective Date, the
Information Memorandum does not contain any material misstatement of fact or
omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in

and (b) no other information, report, financial statement, exhibit or schedule
furnished by or on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary to the
Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with the negotiation of the
Loan Documents or included therein or delivered pursuant thereto, when taken
together with all other such information, reports, financial statements,
exhibits or schedules, contained, contains or will contain any material
misstatement of fact or omitted, omits or will omit to state any material fact
necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances
under which they were, are or will be made, not materially misleading.

 

Section 3.16.  Solvency.  Immediately following the making
of each Borrowing and after giving effect to the application of the proceeds of
such Borrowing, the Company and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis will
be Solvent.  The Company and its
Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis do not intend to, and do not believe that
the Company and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis will, incur debts
beyond their ability to pay such debts as they mature, taking into account the
timing of and amounts of cash anticipated to be received by the Company and its
Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis and the timing of the amounts of cash
anticipated to be payable on or in respect of the Indebtedness of the Company
and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis. 
For the purpose of this Section, “Solvent”
means, with respect to any Person on a particular date, that on such date (a)
the fair value of the property owned by such Person is greater than the total
amount of liabilities, including, without limitation, contingent liabilities,
of such Person, (b) such Person is able to meet its obligations as those
obligations mature and (c) such Person is not engaged in business or a
transaction for which such Person’s property would constitute an unreasonably
small capital.  The amount of contingent
liabilities at any time shall be computed as the amount that, in the light of
all the facts and circumstances existing at such time, represents the amount
that can reasonably be expected to become an actual or matured liability.

change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of any Borrower, any other
Guarantor or any other Person or any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or
other similar proceeding affecting any Borrower, any other Guarantor or any
other Person or its assets or any resulting release or discharge of any
obligation of any Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person contained
in any Loan Document;

 

57

 

(e)                                  the
existence of any claim, set-off or other rights which such Guarantor may have
at any time against any Borrower, any other Guarantor, the Administrative
Agent, any Lender or any other Person, whether in connection herewith or any
unrelated transactions; provided that
nothing herein shall prevent the assertion of any such claim by separate suit
or compulsory counterclaim;

 

(f)                                    any
invalidity or unenforceability relating to or against any Borrower, any other
Guarantor or any other Person for any reason of any Loan Document, or any
provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit the payment by
any Borrower of the principal of or interest or any other amount payable by it
under any Loan Document; or

 

(g)                                 any
other act or omission to act or delay of any kind by any Borrower, any other
Guarantor, the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other Person or any
other circumstance whatsoever which might, but for the provisions of this
paragraph, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of such Guarantor’s
obligations hereunder (in each case other than payment in full of the
obligations guaranteed hereunder).

 

Section 11.03.  Discharge Only Upon Payment in
Full; Reinstatement in Certain Circumstances. 
(i) Each of the Guarantor’s obligations hereunder shall
remain in full force and effect until the Commitments shall have terminated and
the principal of and interest on the Loans and all other amounts payable
hereunder by the Guarantor and each Borrower under this Agreement shall have
been paid in full in cash and all LC Disbursements shall have been
reimbursed.  If at any time any payment
of the principal of or interest on any Loan or any other amount payable by any
Borrower under this Agreement is rescinded or must be otherwise restored or
returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower or
otherwise, the Guarantors’ obligations hereunder with respect to such payment
shall be reinstated at such time as though such payment had been due but not
made at such time.

 

(ii)                                  If
all the capital stock of a Subsidiary Guarantor or all the assets of a
Subsidiary Guarantor are sold to a Person other than the Company or one of its
Subsidiaries in a transaction not prohibited hereunder (any such sale, a “Sale of Guarantor”), such Subsidiary Guarantor will
automatically without any further action by any Person be released from its
guarantee hereunder.

 

Section 11.04.  Waiver by Guarantor.  Each Guarantor irrevocably waives
acceptance hereof, presentment, demand, protest and any notice not provided for
herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by any
Person against any Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person.

 

Section 11.05.  Subrogation.  Upon making any payment with
respect to any Borrower hereunder, a Guarantor shall be subrogated to the
rights of the payee against such Borrower with respect to such payment; provided that no Guarantor shall enforce any payment by way
of subrogation unless all amounts of principal of and interest on the Loans to
such Borrower and all other amounts payable by such Borrower under this
Agreement have been paid in full in cash.

 

Section 11.06.  Stay of Acceleration.  If acceleration of the time for
payment of any amount payable by any Borrower under this Agreement is stayed
upon insolvency, bankruptcy or 

 

58

 

reorganization
of such Borrower, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the
terms of this Agreement shall nonetheless be payable by the Guarantors
hereunder forthwith on demand by the Administrative Agent made at the request
of the Required Lenders.

 

Section 11.07.  Continuing Guaranty.  Each Guarantor’s Guaranty
hereunder is a continuing guarantee, shall be binding on each Guarantor and its
successors and assigns, and shall be enforceable by the Lenders.  If all or part of any Lender’s interest in
any obligation guaranteed by any Guarantor is assigned or otherwise
transferred, the transferor’s rights under the Guarantor’s guarantee, to the
extent applicable to the obligation so transferred, shall automatically be
transferred with such obligation.

 

Section 11.08.  Limitation
on Obligations of Subsidiary Guarantor.  (a) The obligations of each Subsidiary
Guarantor under its Guaranty at any time shall be limited to an aggregate
amount equal to the largest amount that (i) would not render such Guaranty subject
to avoidance under Section 548 of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any
comparable provisions of applicable law and (ii) is permissible under Section
11.08(b) hereof.

 

(b)                                 It
is the intention of the parties that the Guaranties given by Restricted Subsidiaries
shall not contravene the limitations on Funded Debt (as defined in the
Indentures) of Restricted Subsidiaries set forth in the Indentures, and the
amount of such Subsidiary Guarantors’ obligations under their Guaranties shall
be limited to an aggregate amount equal to the maximum amount that may be
guaranteed by them without contravention of such restrictions contained in the
Indentures (the “Maximum Guaranteed Amount”), in
each case to the extent that such restriction is in effect under the Indentures
or any newly executed indenture containing a restriction on “Funded Debt” on
the same terms as the restriction set forth in the Indentures.  The Maximum Guaranteed Amount shall, to the
extent permitted by the Indenture, be determined as of the date which results
in the greatest amount.

 

(c)                                  The
Company represents and warrants that, as of the Effective Date, the Maximum
Guaranteed Amount shall be an amount not less than $125,000,000.  Without limiting the effect of Section
11.08(b) above, unless and until the contrary is established to their
satisfaction, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent may assume for purposes
of the Loan Documents that the Maximum Guaranteed Amount is $125,000,000, and
shall incur no liability for any action or inaction taken in reliance on such
assumption.  Without limiting the effect
of this Section 11.08(c), the Lenders and the Administrative Agent may in any
case rely upon the advice of counsel as to the Maximum Guaranteed Amount, and
shall incur no liability for any action or inaction taken in reliance on such
advice.

 

(d)                                 In
the event of any inconsistency between the provisions of any Loan Document and
this Section 11.08, the provisions of this Section 11.08 shall prevail.

any party hereto in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement shall be

Section 12.02.  Waivers; Amendments.  (a) No
failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender in
exercising any right or power under any Loan Document shall operate as a waiver
thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power,
or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power,
preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other
right or power.  The rights and remedies
of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders under the Loan
Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that
they would otherwise have.  No waiver of
any provision of any Loan Document or consent to any departure by any Borrower
or any Subsidiary Guarantor therefrom shall in any event be effective unless
the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then
such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for
the purpose for which given.  Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or issuance of a
Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless
of whether the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank may have
had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time.

 

(b)                                 No
Loan Document nor any provision thereof may be waived, amended or modified
except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the
Company and the Required Lenders; provided that
no such agreement shall

 

(i)                           (A)
increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such
Lender, (B) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement or
reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder,
without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (C) postpone the
scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan or LC
Disbursement, or any interest thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce
the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date
of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender
affected thereby, (D) change Section 2.18(b) or Section 2.18(c) in a manner
that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the
written consent of each Lender, (E) change any of the provisions of this
Section or the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision of any
Loan Document specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive,
amend or modify any rights thereunder or make any determination or grant any
consent thereunder, without the  written
consent of each Lender, or (F) release any Guarantor from its guarantee under Article
11 hereof (except as expressly permitted by Article 11), or limit its liability
in respect of such guarantee, without the written consent of each Lender;

 

(ii)                        amend,
modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent,
the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender under any Loan Document without the
prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the
Swingline Lender, as the case may be; or

 

61

 

(iii)                     (A)
subject any Eligible Subsidiary or Original Subsidiary Borrower to any
additional obligation without the written consent of such Borrower,
(B) increase the principal of or rate of interest on any outstanding Loan
of any Eligible Subsidiary or Original Subsidiary Borrower without the written
consent of such Borrower, (C) accelerate the stated maturity of any outstanding
Loan of any Eligible Subsidiary or Original Subsidiary Borrower without the
written consent of such Borrower or (D) change this proviso (iii) without the prior written consent of each Eligible
Subsidiary and each Original Subsidiary Borrower.

 

Section 12.03.  Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver. 
(a) The Company
shall pay (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the
Administrative Agent, and its Affiliates, including the reasonable fees,
charges and disbursements of one counsel for the Administrative Agent, in
connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein,
the preparation and administration of the Loan Documents or any amendments,
modifications or waivers of the provisions thereof (whether or not the
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all
reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Issuing Bank in connection
with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or
any demand for payment thereunder and (iii) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred
by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender, including the
fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent,
the Issuing Bank or any Lender, in connection with the enforcement or
protection of its rights in connection with the Loan Documents, including its
rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made or Letters of
Credit issued hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred
during  any workout, restructuring or
negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit.

 

(b)                                 The
Company shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and each
Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such
Person being called an “Indemnitee”)
against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims,
damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the reasonable fees,
charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or
asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a
result of (i) the execution or delivery of the Loan Documents or any
agreement or instrument contemplated thereby, the performance by the parties
thereto of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the
Transactions or any other transactions contemplated thereby, (ii) any Loan
or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal
by the Issuing Bank to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if
the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply
with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged
presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or
operated by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental
Liability related in any way to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv)
any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding
relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other
theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any
Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages,
liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the
gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee.

 

62

 

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

 

(d)                                 To
the extent permitted by applicable law, each Credit Party shall not assert, and
hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability,
for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct
or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, the Loan
Documents or any agreement or instrument contemplated thereby, the
Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof.

 

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

 

Section 12.04.  Successors and Assigns.  (a) The
provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of
the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby
(including any Affiliate of the Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit),
except that (i) no Credit Party may assign or otherwise transfer any of their
rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each
Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by any Credit Party without
such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise
transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this
Section.  Nothing in this Agreement,
expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than
the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby
(including any Affiliate of the Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit),
Participants (to the extent provided in paragraph (c) of this Section) and, to
the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders) any legal or equitable
right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

 

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

 

(A)                              the
Company; provided that no consent of the Company
shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an
Approved Fund (as defined below) or, if an Event of Default under paragraph
(b), (c), (g) or (h) of Article 8 has occurred and is continuing, any other
assignee; and

 

(B)                                the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender; provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent, the
Issuing Bank 

 

63

 

or the Swingline Lender, shall be required
for an assignment to an assignee that is a Lender immediately prior to giving
effect to such assignment.

 

(ii)                                  Assignments
shall be subject to the following additional conditions:

 

(A)                    except
in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an
assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment,
the amount of the Commitment of the assigning Lender subject to each such
assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with
respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not
be less than $1,000,000 unless each of the Company and the Administrative Agent
otherwise consent; provided that
no such consent of the Company shall be required if an Event of Default under
paragraph (b), (c), (g) or (h) of Article 8 has occurred and is continuing;

 

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

 

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

 

(D)                     the
assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative
Agent an Administrative Questionnaire; and

 

(E)                       in
the case of an assignment to a CLO (as defined below), the assigning Lender
shall retain the sole right to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of
any provision of this Agreement, provided that
the Assignment and Assumption between such Lender and such CLO may provide that
such Lender will not, without the consent of such CLO, agree to any amendment,
modification or waiver described in paragraph (i) of the first proviso to Section
12.02(b) that affects such CLO.

 

For the purposes of this Section 12.04(b), the terms “Approved Fund” and “CLO” have the
following meanings:

 

“Approved Fund” means (a) a CLO and (b)
with respect to any Lender that is a fund which invests in bank loans and
similar extensions of credit, any other fund that invests in bank loans and
similar extensions of credit and is managed by the same investment advisor as
such Lender or by an Affiliate of such investment advisor.

 

“CLO” means any entity (whether a
corporation, partnership, trust or otherwise) that is engaged in making,
purchasing, holding or otherwise investing in bank loans and similar extensions
of credit in the ordinary course of its business and is administered or managed
by a Lender or an Affiliate of such Lender.

 

64

 

(iii)                               Subject
to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) of this
Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and
Assumption the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent
of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and
obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender
thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and
Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the
case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s
rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a
party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14,
2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 12.03).  Any
assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement
that does not comply with this Section 12.04 shall be treated for purposes of
this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and
obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section.

 

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

 

(v)                                 Upon
its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an
assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative
Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the
processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this
Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of
this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and
Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register.  No assignment shall be effective for purposes
of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in
this paragraph.

 

(c)                                  (i)
Any Lender may, without the consent of any Borrower, the Administrative Agent,
the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, sell participations to one or more
banks or other entities (a “Participant”)
in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this
Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing
to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s
obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender
shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance
of such obligations and (C) each Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the
Issuing Bank and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly
with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under
this Agreement.  Any agreement or
instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide
that such Lender shall retain the sole right 

 

65

 

to enforce
this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any
provision of this Agreement; provided that
such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the
consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver
described in paragraph (i) of the first proviso to Section 12.02(b) that
affects such Participant.  Subject to
paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant
shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and Section 2.17
to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by
assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section.  To the extent permitted by law, each
Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 12.08 as though
it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees
to be subject to Section 2.18(c) as though it were a Lender.

 

(ii)                                  A
Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.14,
2.16 or 2.17 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive
with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of
the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written
consent.  A Participant that would be a
Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section
2.16 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such
Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to
comply with Section 2.16(e) as though it were a Lender.

 

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

 

Section 12.05.  Survival.  All covenants, agreements,
representations and warranties made by the Company and any Borrower herein and
in the certificates or other instruments 
delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be
considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall
survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of any
Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation
made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender may have had notice or
knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time
any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect
as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or
any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any
Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired
or terminated.  The provisions of
Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 12.03 and Article 9 shall survive and
remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or
termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of
this Agreement or any provision hereof.

 

Section 12.06.  Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness.  This Agreement may be executed in
counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each
of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together
shall constitute a single contract.  This
Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with 

 

66

 

respect to
fees payable to the Administrative Agent constitute the entire contract among
the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all
previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the
subject matter hereof.  Except as
provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall
have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative
Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear
the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their
respective successors and assigns.  Delivery
of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile
shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this
Agreement.

 

Section 12.07.  Severability.  Any
provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any
jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of
such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity,
legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the
invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not
invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

 

Section 12.08.  Right of Set-off.  If
an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each
of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to
the fullest extent permitted by law, to set-off and apply any and all deposits
(general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and
other obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the
credit or the account of the Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor against any
of and all the obligations of such Borrower or such Subsidiary Guarantor now or
hereafter existing under this Agreement held by such Lender, irrespective of
whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement and
although such obligations may be unmatured. 
The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other
rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may
have.

 

Section 12.09.  Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process.  (a) This
Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the
State of New York.

 

(b)                                 Each
Credit Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its
property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of
New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of
the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in
any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to any Loan Document, or
for recognition or enforcement of any judgment arising out of or relating to
any Loan Document, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or
proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the
extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. 
Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such
action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other
jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by
law.  Nothing in any Loan Document shall
affect any right that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender
may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to any Loan
Document against any Borrower or Subsidiary Guarantor or its properties in the
courts of any jurisdiction.

 

67

 

(c)                                  Each
Credit Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest
extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or
hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising
out of or relating to any Loan Document in any court referred to in paragraph
(b) of this Section.  Each of the parties
hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the
defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or
proceeding in any such court.

 

(d)                                 Each
party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the
manner provided for notices in Section 12.01. 
Nothing in any Loan Document will affect the right of any party to this
Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

 

Section 12.10.  WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.  EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES,
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A
TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR
RELATING TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED THEREBY (WHETHER
BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). 
EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR
ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH
OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE
FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO
HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE
MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

 

Section 12.11.  Judgment Currency.  If,
under any applicable law and whether pursuant to a judgment being made or
registered against any Borrower or for any other reason, any payment under or in
connection with any Loan Document is made or satisfied in a currency (the “Other Currency”) other than that in which the relevant
payment is due (the “Required Currency”)
then, to the extent that the payment (when converted into the Required Currency
at the rate of exchange on the date of payment or, if it is not practicable for
the party entitled thereto (the “Payee”) to purchase the Required Currency with
the Other Currency on the date of payment, at the rate of exchange as soon
thereafter as it is practicable for it to do so) actually received by the Payee
falls short of the amount due under the terms of any Loan Document, such
Borrower shall, to the extent permitted by law, as a separate and independent
obligation, indemnify and hold harmless the Payee against the amount of such
short-fall.  For the purpose of this
Section, “rate of exchange” means the rate at which the Payee is able on the
relevant date to purchase the Required Currency with the Other Currency and
shall take into account any premium and other costs of exchange.

 

Section 12.12.  Headings.  Article and
Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of
reference only, are not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the
construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this
Agreement.

 

Section 12.13.  Confidentiality.  Each
of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders agrees to
maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that
Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ directors,
officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other
advisors (it being understood that the 

 

68

 

Persons to
whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of
such Information and will agree to keep such Information confidential),
(b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority having
jurisdiction over it, (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or
regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party
to this Agreement, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies
hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to any Loan Agreement or
the enforcement of rights hereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing
provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee
of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of
its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or
prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative
transaction relating to the Borrower and its obligations under this Agreement,
(g) with the consent of the Borrower or (h) to the extent such Information
(i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this
Section or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing
Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the
Borrower.  For the purposes of this
Section, “Information” means all information
received from the Borrower relating to the Borrower or its business, other than
any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing
Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the
Borrower; provided that, in the case of
information received from the Borrower after the date hereof, such information
is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential.  Any Person required to maintain the
confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered
to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the
same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such
Person would accord to its own confidential information.

 

Section 12.14.  USA Patriot Act Notification.  Each
Lender hereby notifies the Borrowers 
that, pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of
Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”),
it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the
Borrowers, which information includes the name and address of the Borrowers and
other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrowers in
accordance with the Act.  The Borrowers
agree to cooperate with each Lender and provide true, accurate and complete
information to such Lender in response to any such request.

For purposes
of this Schedule, the following terms have the following meanings, subject to
the concluding paragraph of this Schedule:

 

“Level I Pricing” applies at any date if, at
such date, the Company’s senior unsecured long-term debt is rated BBB or higher
by S&P or Baa2 or higher by Moody’s, except as provided below under “Split
Rating Pricing”.

 

“Level II Pricing” applies at any date if,
at such date, the Company’s senior unsecured long-term debt is rated BBB- by
S&P or Baa3 by Moody’s, except as provided below under “Split Rating
Pricing”.

 

“Level III Pricing” applies at any date if,
at such date, the Company’s senior unsecured long-term debt is (x) rated BB+ by
S&P and Ba1 by Moody’s.

 

“Level IV Pricing” applies at any date if,
at such date, the Company’s senior unsecured long-term debt is rated (x) BB+ by
S&P and Ba2 by Moody’s or (y) BB by S&P and Ba1 by Moody’s.

 

“Level V Pricing” applies at any date if, at such date, the
Company’s senior unsecured long-term debt is rated BB by S&P or Ba2 by
Moody’s, except as provided below under “Split Rating Pricing”.

 

“Level VI Pricing” applies at any date if,
at such date, no other Pricing Level applies.

 

“Pricing Level” refers to the determination
of which of Level I, Level II, Level III, Level IV, Level V or Level VI Pricing
applies at any date.

 

1

 

“Split Rating Pricing” applies if the
Company has a split rating, in which case (x) if the ratings differential is
one level, the higher of the two ratings shall apply and, (y) if the ratings
differential is two levels or more, the rating which is one level below the
higher of the two ratings shall apply; provided that
the foregoing shall not apply for purposes of determining whether the Pricing
Level is Level III or Level IV.

 

The credit
ratings to be utilized for purposes of this Schedule are those assigned by
S&P or Moody’s to the senior unsecured long-term debt securities of the
Company without third-party credit enhancement, and any rating assigned to any
other debt security of the Company shall be disregarded.  The rating in effect at any date is that in
effect at the close of business on such date. 
Notwithstanding the definition of Level VI Pricing above, if the
rating system of Moody’s or S&P shall change, or if either such rating
agency shall cease to be in the business of rating corporate debt obligations,
the Company and the Administrative Agent shall negotiate in good faith to amend
this Pricing Schedule to reflect such changed rating system or the
nonavailability of ratings from such rating agency and, pending the effectiveness
of any such amendment, the Pricing Level shall be determined by reference to
the rating most recently in effect prior to such change or cessation.

OFFICE SCHEDULE

 

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
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 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 an Applicable Lending Office in
a Participating Member State will be the percentage notified by that Lender to
the Administrative Agent.  This
percentage will be certified by that Lender in its notice to the 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 Applicable Lending
Office) of complying with the minimum reserve requirements of the European
Central Bank in respect of loans made from that Applicable Lending Office.

 

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

 

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

 

	
  AB + C(B-D) + E × 0.01

  	
   

  	
  per cent. per annum

  
	
  100 – (A + C)

  

 

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

 

	
  E × 0.01

  	
   

  	
  per cent. per annum.

  
	
  300

  

 

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 

 

1

 

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 Rate and the
Mandatory Cost and, if the Loan is an Unpaid Sum, the additional rate of
interest specified in Section 2.12(d) 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
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 Administrative Agent as being the average of the most recent
rates of charge supplied by the Reference Banks to the 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)                                 “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;

 

(c)                                  “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);

 

(d)                                 “Reference Banks” means, in relation to Mandatory Cost, the
principal London offices of JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. 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 Administrative Agent in consultation with the Borrowers.

 

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

 

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

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 Administrative Agent, each Reference Bank shall, as soon as
practicable after publication by the Financial Services Authority, supply to the
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 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 Applicable Lending Office; and

 

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

 

Each Lender
shall promptly notify the 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 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 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 an Applicable Lending Office
in the same jurisdiction as its Applicable Lending Office.

 

10.                                 The
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
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.

 

3

 

12.                                 Any
determination by the 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
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 form 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.

FORM OF OPINION OF INTERNAL COUNSEL FOR THE
COMPANY

 

December 1, 2004

JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.,

as Administrative Agent,

and the Lenders, care of the

Administrative Agent

270 Park Avenue

New York, NY 10017

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

Reference is made to the Credit Agreement dated as of December 1, 2004
(the “Credit Agreement”), among the Company, and Cummins Engine Co. Ltd.,
Cummins Power Generation Ltd. and Newage International Limited (collectively,
the “Original Subsidiary Borrowers”), the Original Subsidiary Guarantors, the
Lenders party thereto, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent,
Issuing Bank and Swingline Lender, Citicorp USA, Inc., as Syndication Agent,
and Bank of America, N.A., The Bank of Nova Scotia and The Royal Bank of
Scotland plc., as Co-Documentation Agents. 
This opinion is being delivered to you pursuant to Section 4.01(b)
of the Credit Agreement.  Capitalized
terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in
the Credit Agreement.

 

As chief legal officer of the Company and each Subsidiary listed on
Schedule 1 hereto (“Subsidiary Guarantor”) and each Subsidiary listed on
Schedule 2 hereto (“Delaware Subsidiary Guarantor”), I advise you that, in my
opinion:

 

1.             The Company and
each Subsidiary Guarantor is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and
in good standing under the laws of Indiana; the Company and each Subsidiary
Guarantor is duly qualified as a foreign corporation and in good standing in
every other jurisdiction in which the failure to qualify would adversely affect
the business, assets, operations, prospects or conditions (financial or
otherwise) of the Company or such Subsidiary Guarantor or would impair the
validity or enforceability of or the ability of the Company and each Subsidiary
Guarantor to perform its obligations under the Loan Documents and the Notes or
the rights and benefits of the Lenders under the Loan Documents or the Notes.

 

2.             Each of the Company
and each Subsidiary Guarantor has all requisite power and authority to own its
property and assets and to carry on its business as now conducted and as
proposed to be conducted, and to execute, deliver and perform the Loan
Documents and all transactions contemplated thereby, to execute and deliver the
Notes and, in the case of the Company, make the contemplated borrowings
thereunder.

 

B2-1

 

3.             The Transactions
(a) have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action (including
any necessary stockholder action) on the part of the Company, each Subsidiary
Guarantor and each Delaware Subsidiary Guarantor and (b) will not
(i) materially violate any provision of any law, rule or regulation
applicable to the Company, any Subsidiary Guarantor or any Delaware Subsidiary
Guarantor, (ii) to the best of my knowledge, materially violate any order,
writ, judgment, decree, determination or award having applicability to the
Company, any Subsidiary Guarantor or any Delaware Subsidiary Guarantor,
(iii) materially violate any provision of the Certificate or Articles of
Incorporation or By-Laws of the Company, of any Subsidiary Guarantor or of any
Delaware Subsidiary Guarantor, (iv) to the best of my knowledge, constitute
a material default under any material indenture or loan or credit agreement, or
any other material agreement or instrument, to which the Company, any
Subsidiary Guarantor or any Delaware Subsidiary Guarantor is a party or by
which any of them or their properties may be bound or affected or
(v) result in, or require, the creation or imposition of any Lien (other
than a Transaction Lien) of any nature upon it with respect to any of the
properties now owned or hereafter acquired by the Company, Subsidiary Guarantor
or any Delaware Subsidiary Guarantor.  To
the best of my knowledge, the Company, each Subsidiary Guarantor and each
Delaware Subsidiary Guarantor is not in default under or in violation of its
Certificate or Articles of Incorporation or other organizing document or its
By-Laws or any such law, rule, or regulation, order, writ, judgment, decree,
determination, award, indenture or agreement pertaining to borrowed money or
similar instrument.

 

4.             No authorization,
consent, approval, license or exemption from, nor any filing, declaration or
registration with, any court, governmental agency or regulatory authority
(Federal, state or local), including, without limitation, the Securities and
Exchange Commission (other than routine disclosure) or any public utility
regulatory agency, or with any securities exchange, is or will be required in
connection with the making and performance by the Company and each Subsidiary
Guarantor of the Loan Documents or the contemplated borrowings thereunder
except filings required to be made under the Security Agreement to perfect the
Transaction Liens.

 

5.             There are no
actions, suits or proceedings pending or, to the best of my knowledge,
threatened, against or affecting the Company or any Subsidiary or any of their
respective assets in any court or before any arbitrator, commission, board,
bureau or other administrative agency which if, in any such case, adversely
determined, would be likely to have a material adverse effect on the
businesses, assets, operations, prospects or condition (financial or otherwise)
of the Company or of any Subsidiary Guarantor or would impair the validity or
enforceability of or the ability of the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor to
perform its obligations under the Loan Documents or any of the Notes.

 

6.             The Company is not
(a) an “investment company” as defined in, or subject to regulation under,
the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, (b) ”holding company” or a
“subsidiary company” of a holding company as defined in, or subject to
regulation under, the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935 or
(c) subject to any other applicable regulatory scheme which restricts its
ability to incur the indebtedness to be incurred under the Loan Documents and

LEGAL OPINION

Credit Agreement dated December 1, 2004

 

I am Counsel to Cummins Engine Company Limited, Cummins Power
Generation Limited and Newage International Limited, each a UK limited
liability company (the “Original Subsidiary Borrowers”) and give this opinion
pursuant to Section 4.01 of the Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) dated
December 1, 2004 among Cummins Inc., the other Original Subsidiary Borrowers,
the Original Subsidiary Guarantors and Lenders party thereto, J.P.Morgan Chase

of America, N.A., The Bank of Nova Scotia and The Royal Bank of Scotland plc.,
as Co-Documentation Agents.  Terms
defined in the Credit Agreement are used herein as therein defined.

 

I have examined originals or
copies, certified or otherwise identified to my satisfaction, of such
documents, corporate records, certificates of public officials and other
instruments and have conducted such other investigations of fact and law as I
have deemed necessary or advisable for purposes of this opinion.

 

Upon the basis of the foregoing, I am of the opinion:

 

1.                                       THAT the Original Subsidiary
Borrowers

(a)                                  are companies duly organized,
validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of the
England and Wales;  and

(b)                                 each is a Wholly-Owned Consolidated
Subsidiary;

 

2.                                       THAT each Original Subsidiary
Borrower has the corporate power to execute and perform the Credit Agreement by
authority of its Memorandum & Articles of Association;

 

3.                                       THAT by virtue of board resolutions
passed by the directors of the Original Subsidiary Borrowers:

 

B3-1

 

(a)                                  execution by, and delivery of and
performance of, its obligations under the Credit Agreement has been duly
approved;

(b)                                 the Credit Agreement shall be
construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New York,
USA;  and

(c)                                  Cummins, Inc. has been validly
appointed by each of the Original Subsidiary Borrowers for the service and/or
enforcement of judgment in respect of the Credit Agreement;

 

4.                                       THAT execution and delivery of and
performance of its obligations under, the Credit Agreement would not conflict
with any statutory, regulatory or corporate obligations (including under its
Memorandum and Articles of Association) nor constitute a breach of contract
currently binding upon the Original Subsidiary Borrowers;

 

5.                                       THAT no requirement exists for the
Credit Agreement to be registered with, nor sanction or consent obtained from,
any regulatory body;

 

6.                                       AND THAT there is no tax, levy,
impost, deduction, charge or withholding imposed by the United Kingdom or any
governmental authority therein either (i) on or by virtue of the execution,
delivery, performance, enforcement or admissibility into evidence of the Loan
Documents;  or (ii) on any payment to be
made by the Original Subsidiary Borrowers pursuant to any Loan Document, except
that a withholding tax is imposed by the United Kingdom on payments of interest
on any Loan made to a Lender that is a non-resident of the United Kingdom for
tax purposes.

faithfully,

To the Lenders and the Administrative Agent

  Referred to Below

c/o JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent

270 Park Avenue

New York, New York  10017

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

We have participated in the preparation of the Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) dated as of December 1,
2004 among Cummins, Inc., an Indiana corporation (the “Company”), the other Borrowers, the Original
Subsidiary Guarantors and Lenders parties thereto (the “Lenders”), JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as
Administrative Agent (the “Administrative
Agent”), Citicorp USA, Inc., as Syndication Agent and Bank of
America, N.A., The Bank of Nova Scotia and The Royal Bank of Scotland plc., as
Co-Documentation Agents, and have acted as special counsel for the
Administrative Agent for the purpose of rendering this opinion pursuant to
Section 4.01(c) of the Credit Agreement. 
Terms defined in the Credit Agreement are used herein as therein
defined.

 

We have examined originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified
to our satisfaction, of such documents, corporate records, certificates of
public officials and other instruments and have conducted such other investigations
of fact and law as we have deemed necessary or advisable for purposes of this
opinion.  In our examination, we have
assumed the (a) genuineness of all signatures, (b) the legal capacity of all
natural persons executing documents, (c) the due existence of each Credit
Party, (d) that each Credit Party has all necessary corporate power and
authority to execute and deliver the Credit Agreement and to perform its
obligations thereunder, (e) the due authorization, execution, and delivery of
the Credit Agreement, (f) the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as
originals, and (g) the conformity to originals of all documents submitted to us
as copies.

 

Upon the basis of the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the Credit
Agreement constitutes a valid and binding agreement of the Company enforceable
against the Company in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent transfer and
other similar laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally from
time to time in effect and to general principles of equity (including, without
limitation, concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair
dealing), regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.

We are members of the Bar of the State of New York and the foregoing
opinion is limited to the laws of the State of New York and the federal laws of
the United States of America.  In giving
the foregoing opinion, we express no opinion as to the effect (if any) of any
law of any jurisdiction (except the State of New York) in which any Lender is
located which limits the rate of interest that such Bank may charge or collect.

 

This opinion is rendered solely to you in connection with the above
matter.  This opinion may not be relied
upon by you for any other purpose or relied upon by any other person without
our prior written consent.

 

Very truly
yours,

Dear Sirs:

 

I am counsel to [Name of Eligible Subsidiary], a [Jurisdiction of

require the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any property or assets of
the Company or any Subsidiary.

 

3.             [Eligible

legal, valid and binding obligation of such [Eligible Subsidiary] enforceable
against such [Eligible Subsidiary] in accordance with its terms.

Acusphere, Inc.

(the “Company” or “Acusphere”)

 

MANAGEMENT INCENTIVE COMPENSATION PLAN

 

 

Objective of Management Incentive Compensation Plan (the “MIC Plan”):

 

•                  Increase
management focus on realistic goals intended to create value for the Company’s shareholders;

•                  Encourage
senior management to work as a team to achieve the Company’s goals;

•                  Encourage
individuals to realize goals that are meaningful to the Company;

•                  Provide
incentives for participants to strive for achievement above and beyond the
Company’s goals; and

•                  Help
attract and retain high quality senior management personnel.

 

Eligibility:

 

The MIC Plan is intended for senior management.  Participants in the MIC Plan are to be
recommended by the President and CEO and approved by the Compensation Committee
of the Board of Directors (the “Compensation Committee”)
in its sole discretion, except that all executive officers shall participate in
the MIC Plan.

 

Minimum Company Achievement Level to Establish a Bonus Pool:

 

Following the approval of the annual Operating Plan
by the Board of Directors (the “Board”), the
Compensation Committee will meet to agree upon Corporate Goals and to establish
a percentage weighting to each Corporate Goal, based upon relative importance
as determined by the Compensation Committee in its sole discretion. These weighting
percentages will be used to calculate the Company Achievement Level at year
end.  The Company must have achieved at
least the following percentage of the Company goals at year end in order for
any participant to be eligible for a bonus.

 

	
  Minimum Company Achievement Level:

  	
   

  	
  80% of Corporate Goals

  

 

If the Minimum Company Achievement Level is reached,
each participant will be eligible for his/her full Bonus Potential. If the
Minimum Company Achievement Level is not reached, no participants will be
awarded any bonuses. If the Compensation Committee changes the Corporate Goals in
the middle of the year, the Compensation Committee will work in good faith to make
such corresponding adjustments to the individual goals for participants in the MIC
Plan as the Compensation Committee deems advisable.

 

 

Bonus Potential:

 

Bonus levels are to be created on an individual
basis by the Compensation Committee. In general, the Bonus Potential shall be
the following as a percentage of base salary:

 

	
  CEO

  	
   

  	
  50

  	
  %

  
	
   

  	
   

  	
   

  	
   

  
	
  CFO

  	
   

  	
  40

  	
  %

  
	
   

  	
   

  	
   

  	
   

  
	
  Sr. VP’s

  	
   

  	
  30

  	
  %

  
	
   

  	
   

  	
   

  	
   

  
	
  VP’s

  	
   

  	
  20

  	
  %

  

 

Bonus Formula:

 

The actual amount of the bonus paid to each
participant will be calculated using a goals-based formula.  The CEO’s goals are the Corporate Goals.
Within 30 days of the approval and weighting of the Corporate Goals, the CEO
will propose to the Compensation Committee the individual goals, and their
weighting, for each executive officer.  Such
executive officer goals are subject to review by the Compensation Committee.  Individual goals for each participant in the
MIC Plan other than the executive officers shall be established and determined
by the CEO, provided that the CEO shall inform the Compensation Committee of
these decisions.

 

Participant’s Bonus = Bonus
Potential* Percentage of Goals Achieved

 

Compensation Committee Discretion:

 

The Compensation Committee in its sole discretion
shall have full discretionary power to administer and interpret the MIC Plan,
to establish rules for its administration, to establish corporate and
individual goals as appropriate and to determine whether any prescribed goals
have been achieved.  The Compensation
Committee may also elect to award bonus payments in amounts smaller than or
greater than the bonus amounts that would otherwise be suggested by the MIC Plan,
in its sole discretion.

 

Timing of Payment:

 

No payment will be made under the MIC Plan unless
the Compensation Committee first approves such payments. The participant must be
in the continued employ of the Company at the time of bonus payment.

 

Taxes:

 

All payments are subject to the withholding of
applicable taxes.

 

2

 

Administration:

 

The MIC Plan is administered by the Compensation
Committee.  It does not represent an
employment contract and shall not confer upon any participant any right with
respect to continued employment.  The
Company reserves its right at any time to terminate any participant’s
employment at any time free from any liability or claim under the MIC
Plan.  The MIC Plan can be cancelled,
altered or amended by the Compensation Committee at any time for any reason, in
its sole discretion.
