2.    AMOUNTS AND TERMS OF THE ADVANCES
		
	2.1.
	The Advances.  Each Lender severally agrees, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, to make Advances to any Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Effective Date until the Termination Date in an aggregate amount outstanding not to exceed at any time such Lender’s Commitment; provided that the Lenders’ obligation to make Advances shall terminate upon the effectiveness of the Term-Out Option.

		
	2.2.
	(a)    Type of Advances    .  Each Borrowing shall consist of Advances of the same Type made on the same day by the Lenders ratably according to their respective Commitments.  Within the limits of each Lender’s Commitment and subject to Section 2.1 and this Section 2.2, any Borrower may borrow under this Section 2.2, prepay pursuant to Section 2.10 or repay pursuant to Section 2.4 and reborrow under this Section 2.2. 

(b)    Amount of Borrowings.  Each Borrowing consisting of EURIBOR Advances shall be in an aggregate amount of no less than €50,000,000 or an integral multiple of €1,000,000 in excess thereof.  Each Borrowing consisting of LIBOR Advances shall be in an aggregate amount of no less than $50,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof.
		
	2.3.
	Making the Advances.  (5)  Notice of Borrowing.  Each Borrowing shall be made on notice, given not later than 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Borrowing, by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent which shall give to each Lender prompt notice thereof by facsimile.  Each such notice of a Borrowing (a “Notice of Borrowing”) shall be by facsimile, such notice to be in substantially the form of Exhibit B hereto, specifying therein the requested:

(i)    date of such Borrowing,
(ii)    Type of Advances,
(iii)    aggregate amount of such Borrowing, and
(iv)    the initial Interest Period for each such Advance.
(b)    Funding Advances.  Each Lender shall, before 2:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the date of such Borrowing, make available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Account, in same day funds, such Lender’s ratable portion of such Borrowing.  After receipt of such funds by the Administrative Agent and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article 3, the Administrative Agent will make such funds available to the relevant Borrower as specified in the applicable Notice of Borrowing.
(c)    Irrevocable Notice.  Each Notice of Borrowing of any Borrower shall be irrevocable and binding on such Borrower.  The Borrower requesting a Borrowing shall indemnify each Lender against any loss, cost or expense incurred by such Lender as a

11

 result of any failure to fulfill on or before the date specified in such Notice of Borrowing for such Borrowing the applicable conditions set forth in Article 3, including, without limitation, any loss (excluding loss of anticipated profits, indirect losses and special or consequential damages), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund the Advance to be made by such Lender as part of such Borrowing when such Advance, as a result of such failure, is not made on such date.
(d)    Lender’s Ratable Portion.  Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to 2:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the day of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s ratable portion of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.3(b) and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower proposing such Borrowing on such date a corresponding amount.  If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have so made such ratable portion available to the Administrative Agent such Lender and such Borrower severally agree to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to such Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at:
(i)    in the case of such Borrower, the higher of (A) the interest rate applicable at the time to Advances comprising such Borrowing and (B) the cost of funds incurred by the Administrative Agent in respect of such amount, and
(ii)    in the case of such Lender, the cost of funds incurred by the Administrative Agent in respect of such amount.
If such Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so repaid shall constitute such Lender’s Advance as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement.
(e)    Independent Lender Obligations.  The failure of any Lender to make the Advance to be made by it as part of any Borrowing shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Advance on the date of such Borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Advance to be made by such other Lender on the date of any Borrowing.
		
	2.4.
	Repayment of Advances; Term-Out Option.  

(a)    Each Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Lenders on the applicable Termination Date the unpaid principal amount of the Advances then outstanding.
		
	(b)
	The Borrower may elect to convert Advances outstanding on the Maturity Date into a term loan (the “Term-Out Option”) maturing on the first anniversary of the

12

Maturity Date (the “Term Loan Maturity Date”); provided that (i) the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent of its election not less than 5 days prior to the Maturity Date, (ii) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and (iii) on or prior to the Maturity Date, the Borrower (A) pays to the Administrative Agent, for the pro rata account of the Lenders, an extension fee in the amount of 0.25% of the principal amount of the Advances outstanding on the Maturity Date and (B) delivers to the Administrative Agent a certificate signed by a duly authorized officer certifying a copy of the resolutions of the Borrower’s Board of Directors approving the exercise of the Term-Out Option.
		
	2.5.
	Interest on Advances.  Subject to Section 2.7(c), each Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Advance owing by such Borrower to each Lender from the date of such Advance until such principal amount shall be paid in full, at the following rates per annum:

(a)    EURIBOR Advances.  During such periods as such Advance is a EURIBOR Advance, a rate per annum equal at all times during each Interest Period for such Advance to the sum of (x) EURIBOR for such Interest Period for such Advance plus (y) the Applicable Interest Rate Margin plus (z) Mandatory Cost, if any, payable in arrears on the last day of such Interest Period and, if such Interest Period has a duration of more than six months, on the day that occurs during such Interest Period six months from the first day of such Interest Period and on the date such EURIBOR Advance shall be paid in full.
(b)    LIBOR Advances.  During such periods as such Advance is a LIBOR Advance, a rate per annum equal at all times during each Interest Period for such Advance to the sum of (x) LIBOR for such Interest Period for such Advance plus (y) the Applicable Interest Rate Margin plus (z) Mandatory Cost, if any, payable in arrears on the last day of such Interest Period and, if such Interest Period has a duration of more than six months, on the day that occurs during such Interest Period six months from the first day of such Interest Period and on the date such LIBOR Advance shall be paid in full.
		
	2.6.
	Absence of Interest Period for Advances.  If any Borrower shall fail to select the duration of any Interest Period for any Advances in accordance with the provisions contained in the definition of the term “Interest Period,” the Administrative Agent will forthwith so notify such Borrower and the Lenders and the Interest Period for such Advances will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, be one month.

		
	2.7.
	Interest Rate Determination for Advances.  (6)  Methods to Determine EURIBOR and LIBOR.  The Administrative Agent shall determine EURIBOR and LIBOR by using the methods described in the definition of the terms “EURIBOR” and “LIBOR,” respectively, and shall give prompt notice to the Borrower and the Lenders of each such EURIBOR or LIBOR.

(b)    Role of Reference Banks.  In the event that EURIBOR or LIBOR cannot be determined by the method described in clause (a) of the definitions “EURIBOR” or “LIBOR,” respectively, each Reference Bank agrees to furnish to the Administrative Agent timely information for the purpose of determining EURIBOR or LIBOR, as the

13

 case may be, in accordance with the method described in clause (b) of the definitions thereof.  If any one or more of the Reference Banks shall not furnish such timely information to the Administrative Agent for the purpose of determining EURIBOR or LIBOR, the Administrative Agent shall determine such interest rate on the basis of timely information furnished by the remaining Reference Banks.  
(c)    Market Disruption. (i) If the applicable Reuters Page is unavailable and fewer than two Reference Banks furnish timely information to the Administrative Agent for determining EURIBOR for any EURIBOR Advances or LIBOR for any LIBOR Advances, as the case may be, or (ii) with respect to Advances under the Facility, the Lenders owed or required to lend at least 50.1% of the aggregate principal amount thereof notify the Administrative Agent that EURIBOR or LIBOR for any Interest Period will not adequately reflect the cost to such Lenders of making, funding or maintaining their respective Advances for such Interest Period (each, a “Market Disruption Event”) then the rate of interest on each Lender’s share of that Advance for the Interest Period shall be the rate per annum which is the sum of (x) the Applicable Interest Rate Margin plus (y) the rate notified to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower by that Lender in a certificate (which sets out the details of the computation of the relevant rate and shall be prima facie non-binding evidence of the same) as soon as practicable and in any event before interest is due to be paid in respect of that Interest Period, to be that which expresses as a percentage rate per annum the cost to that Lender of funding its participation in that Advance from whatever source it may reasonably select plus (z) Mandatory Cost, if any, applicable to that Lender’s participation in the Advance.
(d)    If a Market Disruption Event occurs and the Administrative Agent or the applicable Borrower so requires:
(i)    the Administrative Agent, PMI and such Borrower shall enter into negotiations (for a period of not more than thirty (30) days) with a view to agreeing on a substitute basis for determining the interest rate; and 
(ii)    any alternative basis agreed upon pursuant to clause (i) above shall, with the prior consent of all the Lenders, PMI and such Borrower, be binding on all such parties hereto.
		
	2.8.
	Fees.  (a)  Commitment Fee.  PMI agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender, 0.040% per annum on the aggregate amount of the unused portion of such Lender’s Commitment  from the date hereof in the case of each Lender that is an Initial Lender and from the effective date specified in the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which it became a Lender in the case of each other Lender until the Termination Date, in each case payable on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December until the Termination Date and on the Termination Date; provided, however, that no such fee shall be payable following the effectiveness of the Term-Out Option. 

(b)    Utilization Fee. PMI agrees to pay the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender an amount equal to (x) 0.100% on the aggregate principal amount of all

14

Advances outstanding with respect to each day on which the aggregate principal amount of all Advances outstanding exceeds 33 1/3% of total Commitments or (y) 0.200% on the aggregate principal amount of all Advances outstanding with respect to each day on which the aggregate principal amount of all Advances outstanding exceeds 66 2/3% of total Commitments, payable on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December until the Termination Date and on the Termination Date, to the extent applicable; provided, however, that no such fee shall be payable following the effectiveness of the Term-Out Option.
(c)    Agent’s Fees.  PMI shall pay to the Administrative Agent for its own account such fees as may from time to time be agreed between PMI and the Administrative Agent.
		
	2.9.
	Optional Termination or Reduction of the Commitments.  PMI shall have the right, upon at least three Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, to terminate in whole or reduce ratably in part the unused portions of the respective Commitments of the Lenders; provided that each partial reduction shall be in the aggregate amount of no less than $50,000,000 or the remaining balance if less than $50,000,000 and shall be ratable among the Lenders affected thereby in accordance with their Commitments.

		
	2.10.
	Prepayments of Advances.  (a)  Optional Prepayments.  Each Borrower may, upon at least three Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent stating the proposed date and aggregate principal amount of the prepayment, and if such notice is given such Borrower shall, prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Advances comprising part of the same Borrowing in whole or ratably in part; provided, however, that each partial prepayment shall be in an aggregate principal amount of no less than €50,000,000 or $50,000,000, as the case may be, or the remaining balance if less than €50,000,000 or $50,000,000.

(b)    Mandatory Prepayments.  (i)  If the Administrative Agent notifies PMI that, on any interest payment date, the sum of (A) the Equivalent in Dollars (determined on the third Business Day prior to such interest payment date) of the aggregate principal amount of the Advances denominated in Euro plus (B) the aggregate principal amount of all Advances denominated in Dollars then outstanding exceeds 105% of the aggregate Commitments of the Lenders on such date, PMI and each other Borrower shall, within two Business Days after receipt of such notice, prepay the outstanding principal amount of any Advances owing by such Borrower in an aggregate amount sufficient to reduce such sum to an amount not to exceed 100% of the aggregate Commitments of the Lenders on such date.
(ii)    The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice of any prepayment required under this Section 2.10(b) to the Borrowers and the Lenders.  Prepayments under this Section 2.10(b) shall be allocated to Advances comprising part of the same Borrowing selected by the applicable Borrower, ratably among the Lenders.

15

(c)    Each prepayment made pursuant to this Section 2.10 shall be made together with any interest accrued to the date of such prepayment on the principal amounts prepaid and any additional amounts which such Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse to the Lenders in respect thereof pursuant to Section 9.4(b).
		
	2.11.
	Increased Costs.  (a)  Costs from Change in Law or Authorities.  If, due to either (i) the introduction of or any change (other than any change by way of imposition or increase of reserve requirements to the extent such change is included in Mandatory Cost) in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation or (ii) the compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law), there shall be any increase in the cost to any Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining Advances (excluding for purposes of this Section 2.11 any such increased costs resulting from (i) Taxes or Other Taxes (as to which Section 2.14 shall govern) and (ii) changes in the basis of taxation of overall net income or overall gross income by the United States or by the foreign jurisdiction or state under the laws of which such Lender is organized or has its Applicable Lending Office or any political subdivision thereof), then the Borrower of the affected Advances shall from time to time, upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender for such increased cost; provided, however, that before making any such demand, each Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different Applicable Lending Office if the making of such a designation would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such increased cost and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.  A certificate as to the amount of such increased cost, submitted to such Borrower and the Administrative Agent by such Lender, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error; and,  provided, further, that (A) all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements and directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision or by United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, and (B) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements and directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith or in implementation thereof, shall in each case be deemed to be a change in law, regardless of the date enacted, adopted, issued or implemented, but only if any such requests, rules, guidelines, requirements or directions are generally applicable to (and for which reimbursement is generally being sought by the applicable Lender in respect of) credit transactions similar to this transaction from borrowers similarly situated to the Borrower, but no Lender shall be required to disclose any confidential or proprietary information in connection therewith.

(b)    Reduction in Lender’s Rate of Return.  In the event that, after the date hereof, the implementation of or any change in any law or regulation, or any guideline or directive (whether or not having the force of law) or the interpretation or administration thereof by any central bank or other authority charged with the administration thereof, imposes, modifies or deems applicable any capital adequacy or similar requirement (including, 

16

without limitation, a request or requirement which affects the manner in which any Lender allocates capital resources to its commitments, including its obligations hereunder) and as a result thereof, in the sole opinion of such Lender, the rate of return on such Lender’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder is reduced to a level below that which such Lender could have achieved but for such circumstances, but reduced to the extent that Borrowings are outstanding from time to time, then in each such case, upon demand from time to time PMI shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as shall compensate such Lender for such reduction in rate of return; provided that, in the case of each Lender, such additional amount or amounts shall not exceed 0.15 of 1% per annum of such Lender’s Commitment.  A certificate of such Lender as to any such additional amount or amounts shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.  Except as provided below, in determining any such amount or amounts each Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Lender shall take all reasonable actions to avoid the imposition of, or reduce the amounts of, such increased costs, provided that such actions, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, will not be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender, and, to the extent possible, each Lender will calculate such increased costs based upon the capital requirements for its Commitment hereunder and not upon the average or general capital requirements imposed upon such Lender.
		
	2.12.
	Illegality.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if (a) any Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent that the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation makes it unlawful, or any central bank or other governmental authority asserts that it is unlawful, for such Lender or its Applicable Lending Office to perform its obligations hereunder to make Advances or to fund or maintain Advances or (b) any Lender notifies PMI and the Administrative Agent that it is unlawful for such Lender or its Applicable Lending Office to make Advances or to fund or maintain Advances to a Designated Subsidiary due to the jurisdiction of organization of such Designated Subsidiary, then, in each case, the obligation of such Lender to make such Advances shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify PMI and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist and the relevant aggregate Commitments shall be temporarily reduced by the amount of such Lender’s share of the Commitments affected by such illegality for the duration of the suspension with respect to such Advances; provided, however, that each Lender agrees to (i) use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different Applicable Lending Office if the making of such a designation would allow such Lender or its Applicable Lending Office to continue to perform its obligations to make Advances or to continue to fund or maintain Advances and would not, in the judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender and (ii) to make or fund Advances to a different Borrower designated by PMI if the making of such designation would allow such Lender to continue to perform its obligations to make Advances or to continue to fund or maintain Advances.

		
	2.13.
	Payments and Computations.  (a)  Time and Distribution of Payments.  PMI and each Borrower shall make each payment hereunder, without set-off or counterclaim, not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the day when due to the Administrative Agent

17

		
	 
	at the Administrative Agent’s Account in same day funds.  The Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal or interest or commitment or utilization fees ratably (other than amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.11, 2.14 or 9.4(b)) to the Lenders for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices, and like funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any Lender to such Lender for the account of its Applicable Lending Office, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.  From and after the effective date of an Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to Section 9.7, the Administrative Agent shall make all payments hereunder in respect of the interest assigned thereby to the Lender assignee thereunder, and the parties to such Assignment and Acceptance shall make all appropriate adjustments in such payments for periods prior to such effective date directly between themselves.

(b)    Computation of Interest and Fees.  All computations of interest and commitment and utilization fees shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days, in each case for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest or commitment or utilization fees are payable.  Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.
(c)    Payment Due Dates.  Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or commitment or utilization fees, as the case may be; provided, however, that if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of Advances to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day.
(d)    Presumption of Borrower Payment.  Unless the Administrative Agent receives notice from any Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Lenders hereunder that such Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender.  If and to the extent such Borrower has not made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent, each Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Lender together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date such Lender repays such amount to the Administrative Agent at the cost of funds incurred by the Administrative Agent in respect of such amount.
(e)    Default Interest.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Advance owing to each Lender, payable in arrears on the dates referred to in Section 2.5 or Section 2.1, at a rate per annum equal at all times to 1% per annum above the rate per annum required to be paid on such Advance.

18

		
	2.14.
	Taxes.  (a)  Any and all payments by each Borrower and PMI hereunder shall be made, in accordance with Section 2.13, free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding, (i) in the case of each Lender and the Administrative Agent, taxes imposed on its net income, and franchise taxes imposed on it, by the jurisdiction under the laws of which such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be), is organized or any political subdivision thereof, (ii) in the case of each Lender, taxes imposed on its net income, and franchise taxes imposed on it, by the jurisdiction of such Lender’s Applicable Lending Office or any political subdivision thereof, (iii) in the case of each Lender and the Administrative Agent, taxes imposed on its net income, franchise taxes imposed on it, and any tax imposed by means of withholding to the extent such tax is imposed solely as a result of a present or former connection (other than any connection arising from the execution, enforcement, delivery and performance of this Agreement or a Note) between such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) and the taxing jurisdiction, (iv) in the case of each Lender and the Administrative Agent, taxes imposed by the United States by means of withholding tax if and to the extent that such taxes shall be in effect and shall be applicable on the date hereof to payments to be made to such Lender’s Applicable Lending Office or to the Administrative Agent and (v) in the case of each Lender and the Administrative Agent, any withholding taxes imposed pursuant to FATCA (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities in respect of payments hereunder being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”).  

(b)    If any Borrower or PMI shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to any Lender or the Administrative Agent, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.14) such Lender or the Administrative Agent (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 or PMI shall make such deductions and (iii) such Borrower or PMI shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law.  If clause (i) of this Section 2.14(b) is unenforceable for any reason in respect of any Borrower, then: 
		
	(A)
	for each period during which a deduction or withholding for or on account of any Taxes is required to be made by the Borrower with respect to the payment of interest under this Agreement (the “Tax Deduction”), in lieu of application of clause (i) of this Section 2.14(b), the rate of interest on the Advances as set out in Section 2.5 shall be the percentage rate per annum which is the aggregate of the applicable:

(i)    Interest Rate Margin,
(ii)    EURIBOR or LIBOR, as applicable, and
(iii)    Mandatory Cost, if any,

19

divided by a factor equal to one (1) minus the amount of the Tax Deduction expressed as a multiplier (i.e., ten (10) percent will be expressed as 0.10 and not as 10%); and
		
	(B)
	all references to a rate of interest under Section 2.5 shall be construed thereafter as adjusted in accordance with this Section 2.14(b).

(c)    In addition, each Borrower or PMI shall pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies that arise from any payment made hereunder or from the execution, delivery or registration of, performing under, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”).
(d)    Each Borrower and PMI shall indemnify each Lender and the Administrative Agent for and hold it harmless against the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including, without limitation, Taxes and Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 2.14) paid by such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be), and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted.  This indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be), makes written demand therefor.
(e)    Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Taxes, each Borrower and PMI shall furnish to the Administrative Agent at its address referred to in Section 9.2, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing such payment.  If any Borrower or PMI determines that no Taxes are payable in respect thereof, such Borrower or PMI shall, at the request of the Administrative Agent, furnish or cause the payor to furnish, the Administrative Agent and each Lender an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent stating that such payment is exempt from Taxes.  Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent for any taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings and all liabilities with respect thereto attributable to such Lender that are paid or payable by the Administrative Agent in connection with this Agreement and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings or liabilities were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant governmental authority.  The indemnity under this Section 2.14(e) shall be paid within 10 days after the Administrative Agent delivers to the applicable Lender a certificate stating the amount of taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings or liabilities so paid or payable by the Administrative Agent.  Such certificate shall be conclusive of the amount so paid or payable absent manifest error.
(f)    Each Lender, on or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement in the case of each Initial Lender and on the date of the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which it becomes a Lender in the case of each other Lender, shall provide the Administrative Agent, PMI and each other Borrower with any form or certificate that is required by any taxing authority (including, if applicable, two original

Internal Revenue Service Forms W-9, W-8BEN, W-8ECI or W-8IMY (together with any underlying attachments), as appropriate, or any successor or other form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service), certifying that such Lender is exempt from or entitled to a reduced rate of Home Jurisdiction Withholding Taxes on payments pursuant to this Agreement.  Thereafter, each such Lender shall provide additional forms or certificates (i) to the extent a form or certificate previously provided has become inaccurate or invalid or has otherwise ceased to be effective or (ii) as requested in writing by any Borrower, PMI or the Administrative Agent.  Unless the Borrowers, PMI and the Administrative Agent have received forms or other documents satisfactory to them indicating that payments hereunder are not subject to Home Jurisdiction Withholding Taxes or are subject to Home Jurisdiction Withholding Taxes at a rate reduced by an applicable tax treaty, such Borrowers, PMI or Administrative Agent shall withhold taxes from such payments at the applicable statutory rate in the case of payments to or for any Lender.
(g)    If a payment made to a Lender hereunder would be subject to U.S. Federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.
(h)    Any Lender claiming any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.14 agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to select or change the jurisdiction of its Applicable Lending Office if the making of such a selection or change would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, any such additional amounts that may thereafter accrue and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise economically disadvantageous to such Lender.
(i)    No additional amounts will be payable pursuant to this Section 2.14 with respect to (i) any Home Jurisdiction Withholding Taxes that would not have been payable had the Lender provided the relevant forms or other documents pursuant to Section 2.14(f); or (ii) in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance by a Lender to an Eligible Assignee, any Home Jurisdiction Withholding Taxes that exceed the amount of such Home Jurisdiction Withholding Taxes that are imposed prior to such Assignment and Acceptance, unless such Assignment and Acceptance resulted from the demand of PMI.
(j)    No additional amounts will be payable pursuant to this Section 2.14 with respect to any taxes imposed by the United States by means of withholding tax on payments

21

made by any Borrower to any Lender’s Applicable Lending Office or to the Administrative Agent, even if such taxes are imposed as a result of the treatment of payments made by a Borrower that is not organized under the laws of the United States as having been made by a United States person for United States federal income tax purposes, including as a result of an election made to treat such Borrower as a disregarded entity for United States federal income tax purposes (regardless of whether such election was made after such Borrower became a Borrower under this Agreement), if and to the extent such taxes were in effect and would have been applicable as of the date hereof to payments to be made by a United States person to such Lender’s Applicable Lending Office or to the Administrative Agent (as the case may be).
(k)    If any Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, obtains a refund of any Tax for which payment has been made pursuant to this Section 2.14, which refund in the good faith judgment of such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, (and without any obligation to disclose its tax records) is allocable to such payment made under this Section 2.14, the amount of such refund (together with any interest received thereon and reduced by reasonable costs incurred in obtaining such refund) promptly shall be paid to the Borrower to the extent payment has been made in full by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.14.
		
	2.15.
	Sharing of Payments, Etc.  If any Lender shall obtain any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise) on account of the Advances owing to it (other than pursuant to Sections 2.11, 2.14 or 9.4(b)) in excess of its ratable share of payments on account of the Advances obtained by all the Lenders, such Lender shall forthwith purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Advances made by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment ratably with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, such purchase from each Lender shall be rescinded and such Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price to the extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to such Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Lender’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered, provided further, that, so long as the obligations under this Agreement and the Notes shall not have been accelerated, any excess payment received by any Lender shall be shared on a pro rata basis only with the other Lenders.  Each Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section 2.15 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such participation.

		
	2.16.
	Evidence of Debt.  (a)  Lender Records; Notes.  Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of each Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Advance owing to such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such

22

Lender from time to time hereunder in respect of Advances.  Each Borrower shall, upon notice by any Lender to such Borrower (with a copy of such notice to the Administrative Agent) to the effect that a Note is required or appropriate in order for such Lender to evidence (whether for purposes of pledge, enforcement or otherwise) the Advances owing to, or to be made by, such Lender, promptly execute and deliver to such Lender a Note payable to the order of such Lender in a principal amount up to the Commitment of such Lender.
(b)    Record of Borrowings, Payables and Payments.  The Register maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 9.7(d) shall include a control account, and a subsidiary account for each Lender, in which accounts (taken together) shall be recorded as follows:
(i)    the date, amount and Facility of each Borrowing made hereunder, the Type of Advances comprising such Borrowing and the Interest Period applicable thereto;
(ii)    the terms of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it;
(iii)    the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from each Borrower to each Lender hereunder; and
(iv)    the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrowers hereunder and each Lender’s share thereof.
(c)    Evidence of Payment Obligations.  Entries made in good faith by the Administrative Agent in the Register pursuant to Section 2.16(b), and by each Lender in its account or accounts pursuant to Section 2.16(a), shall be prima facie evidence of the amount of principal and interest due and payable or to become due and payable from each Borrower to, in the case of the Register, each Lender and, in the case of such account or accounts, such Lender, under this Agreement, absent manifest error; provided, however, that the failure of the Administrative Agent or such Lender to make an entry, or any finding that an entry is incorrect, in the Register or such account or accounts shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of any Borrower under this Agreement.
		
	2.17.
	Defaulting Lenders.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

(a)    fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment pursuant to Section 2.8(a); 
(b)    the Defaulting Lender’s Commitment shall not be included in determining whether all Lenders or the Required Lenders have taken or may take action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment or waiver pursuant to Section 9.1); provided that any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each

23

affected Lender which affects such Defaulting Lender differently than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender; and provided further that in the event that a Lender is a Defaulting Lender solely as the result of a failure to fund pursuant to clause (a) of the definition of the term “Defaulting Lender” and such failure to fund is the subject of a good faith dispute, any waiver, amendment or modification pursuant to Section 9.1(b) or 9.1(d) affecting such Defaulting Lender shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender; and
(c)    any amount payable to such Defaulting Lender hereunder (whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise and including any amount that would otherwise be payable to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.15 shall, in lieu of being distributed to such Defaulting Lender, subject to any applicable requirements of law, be applied (i) first, to the payment of any amounts owing hereunder by such Defaulting Lender to RBS, as Administrative Agent, (ii) second, to the funding of any Advance in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by RBS, as Administrative Agent, and (iii) third, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction.
In the event that RBS, as Administrative Agent, and PMI both agree that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then on such date such Lender shall (i) purchase at par such portion of the Advances of the other Lenders as RBS, as Administrative Agent, shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Advances ratably in accordance with its respective Commitment and (ii) cease to be a Defaulting Lender.
		
	2.18.
	Use of Proceeds.  The proceeds of the Advances shall be available (and each Borrower agrees that it shall use such proceeds) for general corporate purposes of PMI and its Subsidiaries.  Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender is bound to monitor or verify the application of any amount borrowed pursuant to this Agreement.

		
	2.19.
	Extension Option. 

(a)    The Borrower may request an extension of the Maturity Date for an additional 364-day period (the “Extended Maturity Date”); provided that (i) the Borrower (A) provides written notice requesting the extension to the Administrative Agent not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior to the Maturity Date and (B) delivers to the Administrative Agent a certificate signed by a duly authorized officer certifying a copy of the resolutions of the Borrower’s Board of Directors approving the Extended Maturity Date, (ii) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and (iii) the Borrower has not exercised the Term-Out Option.  The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each of the Lenders of such request. Each Lender will respond to such request, whether affirmatively or negatively, as it may elect in its sole discretion, within 10 Business Days of such notice to the Administrative Agent. The Commitments of those Lenders which have responded affirmatively shall be extended, subject to receipt by the Administrative Agent of counterparts of an Extension Agreement in substantially the form of Exhibit I hereto (the “Extension Agreement”) duly completed and signed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and all of the Lenders which have responded 

24

affirmatively. No extension of the Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.19 shall be legally binding on any party hereto unless and until such Extension Agreement is so executed and delivered by the Required Lenders.
(b)    If any Lender rejects, or is deemed to have rejected, the Borrower’s request to extend its Commitment (each, a “Non-Extending Lender”), (i) this Agreement shall terminate on the Maturity Date with respect to such Non-Extending Lender (provided that such Non-Extending Lender’s rights under Sections 2.11, 2.14 and 9.4 and obligations under Section 9.12 shall survive the Maturity Date as to matters occurring prior to such date), (ii) the Borrower shall pay to such Lender on the Maturity Date any amounts due and payable hereunder to such Lender on such date and (iii) the Borrower may, if it so elects, designate a Person to become a Lender after consultation with the Administrative Agent, or agree with an existing Lender that such Lender’s Commitment shall be increased, (each, an “Assuming Lender”), in each case to assume, effective as of the Maturity Date, any Non-Extending Lenders’ Commitments and all of the obligations of such Non-Extending Lenders under this Agreement thereafter arising relating to such Commitments, without recourse to or warranty by, or expense to such Non-Extending Lenders; provided that any such designation or agreement may not increase the aggregate amount of the Commitments under this Facility.  The assumptions provided for in this Section 2.19(b) shall be subject to the conditions that:
(i)    the Assuming Lenders shall have paid to the Non-Extending Lenders (A) the aggregate principal amount of, and any interest and fees accrued and unpaid to but excluding the Maturity Date on, the outstanding Advances, if any, of the Non-Extending Lenders under their respective Commitments being assumed;
(ii)    all additional cost, reimbursements, expense reimbursements and indemnities due and payable to the Non-Extending Lenders in respect of such Commitments shall have been paid by the Borrower; and
(iii)    with respect to any such Assuming Lender, the applicable processing and recordation fee required under Section 9.7(a) for such assignment shall have been paid by the Assuming Lender (or, if it has been so agreed, by the Borrower);
On or prior to the Maturity Date, (A) each Assuming Lender that is not an existing Lender shall have delivered to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance or such other agreement acceptable to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and (B) any existing Lender assuming any Commitments shall have delivered confirmation in writing satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent as to the increase in the amount of its Commitment.  Upon execution and delivery of the documentation pursuant to the foregoing clauses (A) and (B) and the Extension Agreement pursuant to Section 2.19(a), the payment of all amounts referred to in clauses (i) through (iii) above, and subject to the requirements of the Patriot Act or any similar “know your customer” or other similar checks under all applicable laws and regulations with respect to Assuming Lenders that are not existing Lenders, the Assuming Lenders, as of the Maturity Date, will be substituted for the Non-Extending Lenders under this Agreement to the extent of their assumed Commitments and shall be Lenders for all purposes of this Agreement, without any further acknowledgment by or the consent of the other 

25

Lenders, and the obligations of the Non-Extending Lenders to such extent hereunder shall, by the provisions hereof, be released and discharged.

(h)    So long as any Subsidiary of PMI is a Designated Subsidiary, the Guaranty provided by PMI under Article 8 hereof shall for any reason cease to be valid and binding on PMI or PMI shall so state in writing.
		
	6.2.
	Lenders’ Rights upon Event of Default.  If an Event of Default occurs or is continuing, then the Administrative Agent shall at the request, or may with the consent, of the Required Lenders, by notice to PMI and the Borrowers:

(a)    declare the obligation of each Lender to make further Advances to be terminated, whereupon the same shall forthwith terminate, and
(b)    declare all the Advances then outstanding, all interest thereon and all other amounts payable under this Agreement to be forthwith due and payable, whereupon the Advances then outstanding, all such interest and all such amounts shall become and be forthwith due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or further notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrowers;
provided, however, that in the event of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to any Borrower under the Federal Bankruptcy Code, (i) the obligation of each Lender to 

34

make Advances shall automatically be terminated and (ii) the Advances then outstanding, all such interest and all such amounts shall automatically become and be due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or any notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrowers.
7.    THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT
		
	7.1.
	Authorization and Action.  Each Lender hereby appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers and discretion under this Agreement as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto.  As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement (including, without limitation, enforcement or collection of the Notes), the Administrative Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Required Lenders, and such instructions shall be binding upon all Lenders and all holders of Notes; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that exposes it to personal liability or that is contrary to this Agreement or applicable law.  The Administrative Agent agrees to give to each Lender prompt notice of each notice given to it by PMI or any Borrower as required by the terms of this Agreement or at the request of PMI or such Borrower, and any notice provided pursuant to Section 5.1(c)(iv).  RBS, as Administrative Agent, may execute any of its duties under this Agreement by or through its affiliate, or any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and advisors; provided that any such affiliate or sub-agent is an affiliate of RBS.

		
	7.2.
	Administrative Agent’s Reliance, Etc.  Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in connection with this Agreement, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct.  The Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing.  The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower or a Lender.  Without limitation of the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent:

(a)    may treat the Lender that made any Advance as the holder of the Debt resulting therefrom until, in the case of the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent receives and accepts an Assignment and Acceptance entered into by such Lender, as assignor, and an Eligible Assignee, as assignee, as provided in Section 9.7;
(b)    may consult with legal counsel (including counsel for PMI or any Borrower), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts;

35

(c)    makes no warranty or representation to any Lender and shall not be responsible to any Lender for any statements, warranties or representations (whether written or oral) made in or in connection with this Agreement;
(d)    shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement on the part of PMI or any Borrower or to inspect the property (including the books and records) of PMI or such Borrower;
(e)    shall not be responsible to any Lender for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; and
(f)    shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by facsimile) believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties.
		
	7.3.
	RBS and Affiliates.  With respect to its Commitment and the Advances made by it, RBS shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent; and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include RBS in its individual capacity.  RBS and its affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of, accept investment banking engagements from and generally engage in any kind of business with, PMI, any Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries and any Person who may do business with or own securities of PMI, any Borrower or any such Subsidiary, all as if RBS was not the Administrative Agent and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

		
	7.4.
	Lender Credit Decision.  Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any Mandated Lead Arranger and Bookrunner, or any other Lender and based on the financial statements referred to in Section 4.1(e) and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement.  Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any Mandated Lead Arranger and Bookrunner, or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement.

		
	7.5.
	Indemnification.  The Lenders agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by PMI or the Borrowers), from and against such Lender’s ratable share (determined as provided below) of any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement (collectively, the “Indemnified Costs”), provided that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of the Indemnified Costs resulting from the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful 

36

misconduct.  Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any out-of-pocket expenses (including counsel fees) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, to the extent that the Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by PMI or the Borrowers.  In the case of any investigation, litigation or proceeding giving rise to any Indemnified Costs, this Section 7.5 applies whether any such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or a third party.  For purposes of this Section 7.5, the Lenders’ respective ratable shares of any amount shall be determined, at any time, according to their respective aggregate Commitments at such time.
		
	7.6.
	Successor Agents.  The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and PMI and may be removed at any time with or without cause by the Required Lenders.  Upon any such resignation or removal, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent.  If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation or the Required Lenders’ removal of the retiring Administrative Agent, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States of America or of any State thereof and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000; provided that if the Administrative Agent is resigning, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless become effective upon such 30 days’ notice and the Lenders shall assume and perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above.  Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, discretion, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement.  After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article 7 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was an Administrative Agent under this Agreement.

		
	7.7.
	Mandated Lead Arrangers and Bookrunners.  Certain entities have been designated as Mandated Lead Arrangers and Bookrunners in connection with this Agreement, but the use of such titles does not impose on any of them any duties or obligations greater than those of any other Lender.

8.    GUARANTY
		
	8.1.
	Guaranty.  PMI hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees (the undertaking of PMI contained in this Article 8 being the “Guaranty”) the punctual payment when due, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, of all obligations of each 

37

Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement, whether for principal, interest, fees, expenses or otherwise (such obligations being the “Obligations”), and any and all expenses (including counsel fees and expenses) incurred by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders in enforcing any rights under the Guaranty.
		
	8.2.
	Guaranty Absolute.  PMI guarantees that the Obligations will be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders with respect thereto.  The liability of PMI under this Guaranty shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of:

(a)    any lack of validity, enforceability or genuineness of any provision of this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto;
(b)    any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from this Agreement;
(c)    any exchange, release or non-perfection of any collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any other guaranty, for all or any of the Obligations; or
(d)    any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, a Borrower or PMI.
This Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the Administrative Agent or any Lender upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of a Borrower or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.
		
	8.3.
	Waivers.  (a)  PMI hereby waives promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance and any other notice with respect to any of the Obligations and this Guaranty and any requirement that the Administrative Agent or any Lender protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien or any property subject thereto or exhaust any right or take any action against a Borrower or any other Person or any collateral.

(b)    PMI hereby irrevocably waives any claims or other rights that it may now or hereafter acquire against any Borrower that arise from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of PMI’s obligations under this Guaranty or this Agreement, including, without limitation, any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification and any right to participate in any claim or remedy of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against such Borrower or any collateral, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity or under contract, statute or common law, including, without limitation, the right to take or receive from such Borrower, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any other manner, payment or security on account of such claim, remedy or right.  If any amount shall be paid to PMI in violation of the preceding sentence at any time prior to the later of the cash payment in 

38

full of the Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty and the Termination Date, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and shall forthwith be paid to the Administrative Agent to be credited and applied to the Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and this Guaranty, or to be held as collateral for any Obligations or other amounts payable under this Guaranty thereafter arising.  PMI acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by this Agreement and this Guaranty and that the waiver set forth in this Section 8.3(b) is knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.
		
	8.4.
	Continuing Guaranty.  This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty and shall (a) remain in full force and effect until payment in full (after the Termination Date) of the Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty, (b) be binding upon PMI, its successors and assigns, and (c) inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and their respective successors, transferees and assigns.

9.    MISCELLANEOUS
		
	9.1.
	Amendments, Etc.  No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, nor consent to any departure by any Borrower or PMI therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Required Lenders; provided, however, that no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by all the Lenders affected thereby, do any of the following:  (a) waive any of the conditions specified in Sections 3.1 and 3.2, (b) increase the Commitments of the Lenders or subject the Lenders to any additional obligations, (c) reduce the principal of, or interest on, the Advances or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, (d) postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Advances or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, (e) change the percentage of the Commitments, or the number of Lenders, that shall be required for the Lenders or any of them to take any action hereunder, (f) release PMI from any of its obligations under Article 8 or (g) amend this Section 9.1; and provided further that no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent in addition to the Lenders required above to take such action, affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any Advance.

	9.3.
	No Waiver; Remedies.  No failure on the part of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder or under any Note shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right.  The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

		
	9.4.
	Costs and Expenses.  (a)  Administrative Agent; Enforcement.  PMI agrees to pay on demand all reasonable costs and expenses in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration (excluding any cost or expenses for administration related to the overhead of the Administrative Agent), modification and amendment of this Agreement and the documents to be delivered hereunder, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses of counsel for the Administrative Agent with respect thereto and with respect to advising the Administrative Agent as to its rights and responsibilities under this Agreement, and all costs and expenses of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, if any (including, without limitation, reasonable counsel fees and expenses of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent), in connection with the enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of this Agreement and the other documents to be delivered hereunder.

(b)    Prepayment of Advances.  If any payment of principal of Advance is made other than on the last day of the Interest Period for such Advance or at its maturity, as a result of a payment pursuant to Section 2.10, acceleration of the maturity of the Advances pursuant to Section 6.2, an assignment made as a result of a demand by PMI pursuant to Section 9.7(a) or for any other reason, PMI shall, upon demand by any Lender (with a 

41

copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender any amounts required to compensate such Lender for any additional losses, costs or expenses which it may reasonably incur as a result of such payment, including, without limitation, any loss (excluding loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by any Lender to fund or maintain such Advance.  Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of any Borrower or PMI hereunder, the agreements and obligations of each Borrower and PMI contained in Section 2.3(c), 2.11, 2.14, and this Section 9.4(b) shall survive the payment in full of principal and interest hereunder.
(c)    Indemnification.  Each Borrower and PMI jointly and severally agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent and each Lender and each of their respective affiliates, control persons, directors, officers, employees, attorneys and agents (each, an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) which may be incurred by or asserted against any Indemnified Party, in each case in connection with or arising out of, or in connection with the preparation for or defense of, any investigation, litigation, or proceeding (i) related to any transaction or proposed transaction (whether or not consummated) in which any proceeds of any Borrowing are applied or proposed to be applied, directly or indirectly, by any Borrower, whether or not such Indemnified Party is a party to such transaction or (ii) related to any Borrower’s or PMI’s entering into this Agreement, or to any actions or omissions of any Borrower or PMI, any of their respective Subsidiaries or affiliates or any of its or their respective officers, directors, employees or agents in connection therewith, in each case whether or not an Indemnified Party is a party thereto and whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by PMI or any Borrower or any other Person; provided, however, that neither any Borrower nor PMI shall be required to indemnify any such Indemnified Party from or against any portion of such claims, damages, losses, liabilities or expenses that is found in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party. No party to this Agreement shall be liable for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages in connection with the Facility.
		
	9.5.
	Right of Set-Off.  Upon (i) the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default and (ii) the making of the request or the granting of the consent specified by Section 6.2 to authorize the Administrative Agent to declare the Advances due and payable pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.2, each Lender is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender to or for the credit or the account of PMI or any Borrower against any and all of the obligations of any Borrower or PMI now or hereafter existing under this Agreement, whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured.  Each Lender shall promptly notify the appropriate Borrower or PMI, as the case may be, after any such set-off and application, provided that the failure to give such 

42

notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.  The rights of each Lender and its affiliates under this Section 9.5 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off) that such Lender and its affiliates may have.
		
	9.6.
	Binding Effect.  This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of PMI, the Administrative Agent, and each Lender and their respective successors and assigns, except that neither any Borrower nor PMI shall have the right to assign its rights hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of the Lenders.

		
	9.7.
	Assignments and Participations.  (a)  Assignment of Lender Obligations.  Each Lender may and, if demanded by PMI upon at least five Business Days’ notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, will assign to one or more Persons all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitment and the Advances owing to it), subject to the following:

(i)    each such assignment shall be of a constant, and not a varying, percentage of all rights and obligations under the Facility under this Agreement;
(ii)    the amount of the Commitment of the assigning Lender being assigned pursuant to each such assignment (determined as of the date of the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment) shall in no event be less than $10,000,000 (subject, in each case, to reduction at the sole discretion of PMI) and shall be an integral multiple of $1,000,000;
(iii)    each such assignment shall be to an Eligible Assignee;
(iv)    each such assignment made as a result of a demand by PMI pursuant to this Section 9.7(a) shall be arranged by PMI after consultation with the Administrative Agent and shall be either an assignment of all of the rights and obligations of the assigning Lender under this Agreement or an assignment of a portion of such rights and obligations made concurrently with another such assignment or other such assignments which together cover all of the rights and obligations of the assigning Lender under this Agreement;
(v)    no Lender shall be obligated to make any such assignment as a result of a demand by PMI pursuant to this Section 9.7(a) unless and until such Lender shall have received one or more payments from either the Borrowers to which it has outstanding Advances or one or more Eligible Assignees in an aggregate amount at least equal to the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Advances owing to such Lender, together with accrued interest thereon to the date of payment of such principal amount and all other amounts payable to such Lender under this Agreement; and
(vi)    the parties to each such assignment shall execute and the assigning Lender shall, not less than five Business Days prior to the effectiveness of any Assignment and Acceptance, deliver to the Administrative Agent which shall give 

43

prompt notice thereof to PMI by facsimile, for the Administrative Agent’s acceptance and recording in the Register, an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of $2,000; provided that, if such assignment is made as a result of a demand by PMI under this Section 9.7(a), PMI shall pay or cause to be paid such $2,000 fee.

FOR PMI
[Letterhead of Hunton & Williams LLP]
[Effective Date]
To each of the Lenders party
to the Credit Agreement referred to below
Philip Morris International Inc.
Ladies and Gentlemen:
This opinion is furnished to you pursuant to Section 3.1(c)(iii) of the Credit Agreement, dated as of 12 February 2013 (the “Credit Agreement”), among Philip Morris International Inc. (“PMI”), the Lenders party thereto and The Royal Bank of Scotland plc, as Administrative Agent.  Terms defined in the Credit Agreement are used herein as therein defined.

We have acted as counsel for PMI in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of the Credit Agreement.
In that connection, we have examined the following documents:
(1)The Credit Agreement.
(2)The documents furnished by PMI pursuant to Article 3 of the Credit Agreement.
(3)The Articles of Incorporation of PMI and all amendments thereto (the “Charter”).
(4)The By-laws of PMI and all amendments thereto (the “By-laws”).
We have also examined the originals, or copies certified to our satisfaction, of such corporate records of PMI, certificates of public officials and of officers of PMI and agreements, instruments and other documents, as we have deemed relevant and necessary as a basis for the opinions expressed below.  As to factual matters, we have relied upon representations included in the Credit Agreement, upon certificates of officers of PMI, and upon certificates of public officials.  Whenever the phrase “to our knowledge” is used herein, it refers to the actual knowledge of the attorneys of the firm involved in the representation of PMI in connection with the Credit Agreement, without independent investigation.  

For purposes of the opinions expressed below, we have assumed (i) the authenticity of all
documents submitted to us as originals, (ii) the conformity to the originals of all documents
submitted as certified or photostatic copies and the authenticity of the originals thereof, (iii) the

legal capacity of natural persons, (iv) the genuineness of signatures and (v) the due
authorization, execution and delivery of all documents by all parties and the validity, binding
effect and enforceability thereof (other than the authorization, execution and delivery of
documents by PMI and the validity, binding effect and enforceability thereof upon PMI).

Our opinions expressed below are limited to the law of the Commonwealth of Virginia, the State of New York and the Federal law of the United States.
Based upon the foregoing and upon such investigation as we have deemed necessary, we are of the following opinion:
1.PMI is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia.
2.The execution, delivery and performance by PMI of the Credit Agreement and the Notes, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, are within PMI’s corporate powers, have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action, and do not contravene (i) the Charter or the By-laws, (ii) any law, rule or regulation applicable to PMI (including, without limitation, Regulation X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System) or (iii) to our knowledge, any contractual restriction binding on or affecting PMI.  The Credit Agreement and any Notes delivered on the date hereof have been duly executed and delivered on behalf of PMI.
3.No authorization, approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any governmental authority or regulatory body or any other third party is required for the due execution, delivery and performance by PMI of the Credit Agreement and the Notes.
4.The Credit Agreement is the legal, valid and binding obligation of PMI enforceable against PMI in accordance with its terms.  The Notes issued on the date hereof, if any, are the legal, valid and binding obligations of PMI, enforceable against PMI in accordance with their respective terms.
The opinion set forth in paragraph 4 above is subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and to the effect of general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law) and an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing.
We express no opinion with respect to:
(A)    The effect of any provision of the Credit Agreement which is intended to permit modification thereof only by means of an agreement in writing by the parties thereto;
(B)    The effect of any provision of the Credit Agreement insofar as it provides that any Person purchasing a participation from a Lender or other Person may exercise set-off or similar rights with respect to such participation or that any Lender or other Person may exercise set-off or similar rights other than in accordance with applicable law;

2

(C)    The effect of any provision of the Credit Agreement imposing penalties or forfeitures;
(D)    The enforceability of any provision of the Credit Agreement to the extent that such provision constitutes a waiver of illegality as a defense to performance of contract obligations; or 
(E)    The effect of any provision of the Credit Agreement relating to indemnification or exculpation in connection with violations of any securities laws or relating to indemnification, contribution or exculpation in connection with willful, reckless or criminal acts or gross negligence of the indemnified or exculpated Person or the Person receiving contribution. 
In connection with the provisions of the Credit Agreement which relate to forum selection (including, without limitation, any waiver of any objection to venue or any objection that a court is an inconvenient forum), we note that under NYCPLR § 510, a New York State court may have discretion to transfer the place of trial, and under 28 U.S.C. § 1404(a), a United States District Court has discretion to transfer an action from one Federal court to another.
This opinion is being furnished to you pursuant to Section 3.1(c)(iii) of the Credit Agreement, is solely for the benefit of you and your counsel, and is not intended for, and may not be relied upon by, any other person or entity without our prior written consent.  We undertake no duty to inform you of events occurring subsequent to the date hereof.

Re:  Credit Agreement dated as of 12 February 2013 (the “Credit Agreement”) among Philip Morris International Inc. (the “Company”), the lending institutions identified in the Credit Agreement (the “Lenders”) and The Royal Bank of Scotland plc, as Administrative Agent
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have acted as counsel to The Royal Bank of Scotland plc, as Administrative Agent, in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of the Credit Agreement.  
This opinion is delivered to you pursuant to Section 3.1(c)(iv) of the Credit Agreement.  Terms used herein which are defined in the Credit Agreement shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Credit Agreement, unless otherwise defined herein.
In connection with this opinion, we have examined a copy of the Credit Agreement signed by the Company, by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders.
In addition, we have examined, and relied as to matters of fact upon, the documents delivered to you at the closing, and upon originals, or duplicates or certified or conformed copies, of such records, agreements, documents and other instruments and such certificates or comparable documents of public officials and of officers and representatives of the Company and have made such other investigations as we have deemed relevant and necessary in connection with the opinion hereinafter set forth.  In such examination, we have assumed the 

genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity of natural persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as duplicates or certified or conformed copies and the authenticity of the originals of such latter documents. In addition, we have relied as to certain matters of fact upon the representations made in the Credit Agreement. 
In rendering the opinion set forth below we have assumed that (1) the Credit Agreement is a valid and legally binding obligation of each party thereto other than the Company, (2) the Company is validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction in which it is organized and has duly authorized, executed and delivered the Credit Agreement in accordance with its organizational documents, (3)(a) execution, delivery and performance by the Company of the Credit Agreement do not violate, or require any consent not obtained under, the laws of the jurisdiction in which it is organized or any other applicable laws or any order known to us issued by any court or governmental agency or body and (b) execution, delivery and performance by the Company of the Credit Agreement will not breach or result in a default under or result in the creation of any lien upon or security interest in the Company’s properties pursuant to the terms of any agreement or instrument that is binding on the Company, and (4) the Company is not an “investment company” within the meaning of and subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
Based upon the foregoing, and subject to the assumptions, qualifications and limitations set forth herein, we are of the opinion that the Credit Agreement constitutes the valid and legally binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms.
Our opinion set forth above is subject to (i) the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally, (ii) general equitable principles (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law), (iii) an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing and (iv) the effects of the possible judicial application of foreign laws or foreign governmental or judicial action affecting creditors’ rights.
We note that (A) a New York statute provides that with respect to a foreign currency obligation a court of the State of New York shall render a judgment or decree in such foreign currency and such judgment or decree shall be converted into currency of the United States at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of entry of such judgment or decree and (B) with respect to a foreign currency obligation a United States federal court in New York may award judgment in United States dollars, provided that we express no opinion as to the rate of exchange such court would apply.
We express no opinion with respect to:
(A)    the effect of any provision of the Credit Agreement that is intended to permit modification thereof only by means of an agreement in writing by the parties thereto;
(B)    the effect of any provision of the Credit Agreement insofar as it provides that any Person purchasing a participation from a Lender or other Person may exercise set-off or 

2

similar rights with respect to such participation or that any Lender or other Person may exercise set-off or similar rights other than in accordance with applicable law;
(C)    the effect of any provision of the Credit Agreement imposing penalties or forfeitures;
(D)    the enforceability of any provision of the Credit Agreement to the extent that such provision constitutes a waiver of illegality as a defense to performance of contract obligations; or 
(E)    the effect of any provision of the Credit Agreement relating to indemnification or exculpation in connection with violations of any securities laws or relating to indemnification, contribution or exculpation in connection with willful, reckless or criminal acts or gross negligence of the indemnified or exculpated Person or the Person receiving contribution. 
In connection with the provisions of the Credit Agreement whereby the parties submit to the jurisdiction of the courts of the United States of America located in the State of New York, we note the limitation of 28 U.S.C. §§ 1331 and 1332 on subject matter jurisdiction of the federal courts.  In connection with the provisions of the Credit Agreement which relate to forum selection (including, without limitation, any waiver of any objection to venue or any objection that a court is an inconvenient forum), we note that under NYCPLR § 510, a New York State court may have discretion to transfer the place of trial, and under 28 U.S.C. § 1404(a), a United States district court has discretion to transfer an action from one federal court to another.
We do not express any opinion herein concerning any law other than the law of the State of New York and the federal law of the United States.
This opinion letter is rendered to you in connection with the above described transaction.  This opinion letter may not be relied upon by you for any other purpose, or relied upon by, or furnished to, any other person, firm or corporation without our prior written consent.  This opinion letter may be furnished to, but may not be relied upon by, a regulatory authority entitled to request it.

DIRECTV
2013 NON-QUALIFIED STOCK OPTION AWARD AGREEMENT
MICHAEL D. WHITE
 
THIS 2013 NON-QUALIFIED STOCK OPTION AWARD AGREEMENT (“Agreement”), dated as of February __, 2013 (“Effective Date”), is entered into between DIRECTV a Delaware corporation (“DIRECTV”), and Michael D. White (“Executive”).
 
WHEREAS, at its meeting on February 11, 2013, the Compensation Committee of DIRECTV’s Board of Directors (the “Committee”) approved the grant to Executive of nonqualified stock options to purchase shares of DIRECTV’s common stock, $.01 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), upon the terms and conditions set forth herein and subject to the terms and conditions of the DIRECTV 2010 Stock Plan (as it may be amended from time to time, the “Plan”); and
 
WHEREAS, at its meeting on February 12, 2013, the Board of Directors of DIRECTV (“Board”) approved the material terms and conditions of this grant of non-qualified stock options; and
 
WHEREAS, both the Committee and the Board authorized the Chairman of the Committee to execute this Agreement on behalf of DIRECTV, in accordance with the resolutions adopted by each of the Committee and the Board at their respective meetings as referenced above.
 
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the services rendered and to be rendered by Executive and the mutual promises made herein and the mutual benefits to be derived therefrom, DIRECTV and Executive agree as follows:
 
1.   Defined Terms.  Any capitalized term used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meaning assigned to such term in the Plan or the DIRECTV Chief Executive Officer Severance Plan (the “Severance Plan”).
 
2.   Grant of Options.  DIRECTV hereby grants to Executive, effective as of February 15, 2013 (the “Grant Date”), the right and option to purchase, on the terms and conditions set forth herein, to the extent exercisable, all or any part of an aggregate of [TBD] shares of Common Stock at a price (“Grant Price”) of [$__.__] per share of Common Stock (which is the closing market price on the NASDAQ Global Select Market of a share of Common Stock on the date hereof), subject to the provisions of this Agreement and the Plan (the “Option”).
 
3.   Vesting and Exercisability of Option.  Provided Executive renders continuous active service as an employee of the Company (“Service”), the Option shall vest and become exercisable as to one-third (rounded to the nearest whole share) of the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock subject to the Option (subject to adjustment as provided in Section 8 herein or in accordance with Section 14 of the Plan), on each of December 31, 2013, December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2015, subject to the applicable provisions of the Plan and this Agreement.  The Option may be exercised only to the extent it shall have vested and is exercisable, and, during Executive’s lifetime, only by Executive.  In no event may the Executive exercise the Option, in whole or in part, after the tenth anniversary of the Grant Date (the “Expiration Date”).  

1

(a)   Cumulative Exercisability.  To the extent Executive does not, at the time of a particular exercise, purchase all the shares of Common Stock that Executive may then purchase, Executive has the right cumulatively thereafter to purchase any of such shares of Common Stock not so purchased until the Expiration Date or, if applicable, the earlier termination of the Option.
 
(b)   No Fractional Shares; Minimum Exercise.  Fractional share interests shall be disregarded, but may be cumulated.  No fewer than 100 shares of Common Stock may be purchased at any one time, unless the number purchased is the total number at the time exercisable under the Option.
 
4.   Exercise of Option.  To the extent vested and exercisable, the Option may be exercised by the delivery to DIRECTV of a written exercise notice stating the number of shares of Common Stock to be purchased pursuant to the Option accompanied by payment of the Grant Price multiplied by the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to be purchased (such payment to be made in accordance with Section 5) and the payment or provision for any applicable employment or other taxes or withholding for taxes thereon (“Withholding Taxes”).  Subject to Section 7 below, such Option shall be deemed to be exercised upon receipt and approval by DIRECTV of such written exercise notice accompanied by the aggregate Grant Price and any other payments so required, as permitted pursuant to Section 5.
 
5.   Method of Payment of Option.  Payment of the aggregate Grant Price shall be by any of the following, or a combination thereof, at the election of Executive:
 
(a)   in cash or by electronic funds transfer, or by check payable to the order of DIRECTV, in the full amount of the purchase price of the shares of Common Stock so purchased and the amount (if any) required to satisfy any applicable Withholding Taxes;
 
(b)   by delivery of shares of Common Stock that have been held by Executive for at least six months, in accordance with Section 7(e) of the Plan, subject to compliance with applicable law;
 
(c)   payment may be made in accordance with the cashless exercise program or net exercise program, if any, of DIRECTV in effect at the time of exercise; or
 
(d)   in a combination of payments under clauses (a), (b) and (c).
 
Other payment methods may be permitted only if expressly authorized by the Committee consistent with the terms of the Plan.
 
6.   Continuance of Employment Required.  The vesting schedule requires continued Service through each applicable vesting date as a condition to the vesting of the applicable shares of Common Stock underlying the Option and rights and benefits under this Agreement, except as otherwise provided in Section 7.  Partial service, even if substantial, during the vesting period will not entitle Executive to any proportionate vesting or avoid or mitigate a termination of rights and benefits upon or following a termination of employment or Service except as provided in Section 7 or 9 below or under the Plan.

7.   Effect of Termination of Employment on Vesting and Exercisability.  The Option terminates on the date Executive’s Service with DIRECTV ends (the “Termination Date”), except to the extent the following provisions apply with respect to vesting and exercisability of the Option after the Termination Date, but in no event may any portion of the Option be exercised after the Expiration Date:

(a)   If Executive’s Service terminates after December 31, 2013 and prior to December 31, 2015, as a result of his death, Disability or Retirement, then the total number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which the Option shall be considered vested and exercisable as of the Termination Date will be equal to the product of:  (1) the fraction (but not greater than one (1)) determined by dividing the number of calendar months (whole or partial) of Executive’s continuous Service from January 1, 2013 to his Termination Date by 36, multiplied by (2) the total number of shares of Common Stock subject to the Option.  The Option held by Executive after effect of this section shall be exercisable with respect to such vested number of shares, in whole or in part, by Executive (or Executive’s Personal Representative or Beneficiary, as the case may be) at any time on or prior to the Expiration Date.  The Option with respect to all unvested shares shall terminate as of the Termination Date.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Executive’s employment terminates due to Retirement, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, accelerate vesting and exercisability of the Option with respect to any or all of the shares of Common Stock underlying this Option which have not otherwise become vested and exercisable under this Section 7(a).

(b) If Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause or Executive terminates his employment due to an Effective Termination prior to December 31, 2015, the Option shall be considered vested and exercisable with respect to all of the remaining unvested shares of Common Stock underlying this Option as of the Termination Date.  The Option shall be exercisable as to all vested shares, in whole or in part, by Executive at any time on or prior to the date that is three (3) calendar years after Executive’s Termination Date, provided that if such termination would also qualify as a Retirement, then the Option shall be exercisable at any time on or prior to the Expiration Date.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Executive’s termination under this subsection (b) occurs in connection with or within two years following a Change in Control, all such vested shares shall be exercisable, in whole or in part, by Executive at any time on or prior to the Expiration Date.  Whether Executive’s termination is in connection with or within two years following a Change in Control will be solely determined by the Committee.

(c) If Executive’s Service terminates on or after December 31, 2015 for any reason other than Cause, then the Option shall be exercisable, in whole or in part, by Executive at any time on or prior to the Expiration Date.
 
(d)   If DIRECTV terminates Executive’s employment for Cause, any unexercised shares underlying the Option shall terminate as of the date of the action or inaction which constitutes Cause, as solely determined by the Committee. 

8.   Adjustments Upon Specified Events.  As provided in Section 14 of the Plan, upon the occurrence of certain events relating to or affecting the Common Stock as contemplated by Section 14 of the Plan, the Committee shall, in such manner, to such extent (if any) and at such times as it deems appropriate and equitable in the circumstances, make adjustments in the number, amount and type of shares of Common Stock (or other securities or property) subject to the Option, the Grant Price and the securities deliverable upon exercise of the Option (or any combination thereof) or provide for a cash payment or the assumption, substitution or exchange of the Option or the shares or other securities subject to the Option, based upon the distribution or consideration payable to holders of Common Stock

generally.  All rights of Executive hereunder are subject to such adjustments and other provisions of the Plan.
 
9.   Possible Early Termination of Award.  As permitted by Section 14 of the Plan, and without limiting the authority of the Committee under any of the provisions of Section 14 of the Plan, the Committee retains the right to terminate any portion or all of the Option, to the extent such Option has not vested, upon a dissolution of DIRECTV or a reorganization event or transaction in which DIRECTV does not survive (or does not survive as a public company in respect of its outstanding Common Stock).  This Section 9 is not intended to prevent future vesting (including provision for future vesting) if the Option (or a substituted Award) remains outstanding following a transaction described in Section 14 of the Plan.
 
Absence from work caused by military service, authorized sick leave, or other leave approved by the Company will not be considered a termination of employment by the Company and/or termination of Service if reemployment upon the expiration of the leave is required by contract or law, or if the leave is for a period of not more than 90 days. The Company reserves the right to adjust grants for employees on leave in excess of 90 days.

10.   Leaves of Absence.  Absence from work caused by military service, authorized sick leave, or other leave approved by the Company will not be considered a termination of employment by the Company and/or termination of Service if reemployment upon the expiration of the leave is required by contract or law, or if the leave is for a period of not more than 90 days. The Company reserves the right to adjust grants for employees on leave in excess of 90 days.
 
11.   No Limitations on Acceleration. The Severance Plan, in particular Article IX, Section F thereof, contains express provisions regarding Section 280G and/or 4999 of the Code of the type described in Section 14(f) of the Plan.  Accordingly, the limitations on acceleration set forth in Section 14(f) of the Plan shall not apply to this Award.  A reduction, if any, to this Award or other effect related to Section 280G and/or Section 4999 shall be governed by the Severance Plan.
 
12.   Associated Stock Rights.  Neither Executive nor any other person entitled to exercise the Option shall have any of the rights or privileges of a stockholder of DIRECTV as to any shares of Common Stock subject to the Option until the issuance and delivery to him or such other person of a certificate (or book entry in lieu thereof) evidencing the shares of Common Stock registered in his or such other person’s name.  No adjustment will be made for dividends or other rights as a stockholder as to which the record date is prior to such date of delivery, except as otherwise provided in Section 8.
 
13.   No Guarantee of Continued Service.  Nothing contained in this Agreement or the Plan constitutes an employment or service commitment by DIRECTV, confers upon Executive any right to remain employed by DIRECTV, interferes in any way with the right of DIRECTV at any time to terminate such employment or affects the right of DIRECTV to increase or decrease Executive’s other compensation or benefits.   Nothing in this Section 13, however, is intended to adversely affect any independent contractual right of Executive under the Severance Plan or any other agreement between DIRECTV and Executive without his consent thereto.
 
14.   Non-Transferability of Option.  The Option and any other rights of Executive under this Agreement or the Plan are nontransferable except as provided in Section 15(i) of the Plan.
 
15.   Notices.  Any notice to be given under the terms of this Agreement shall be in writing and addressed:  to DIRECTV at its office located at 2230 East Imperial Highway, El Segundo, California

90245, to the attention of the Corporate Secretary; and to Executive at the address on file with DIRECTV, or at such other address as either party may hereafter designate in writing to the other.

16.  Taxes.  DIRECTV may, in its discretion, take action to satisfy any of Executive’s tax obligations related to the Option, including, but not limited to, withholding from Executive’s wages or other cash compensation, withholding shares that otherwise would be issued to Executive on exercise of the Option, or requiring Executive to satisfy such liability by other means as approved by DIRECTV.  

General information regarding taxation related to Options is provided in the Plan Prospectus.  Please note, however, that any taxes or withholding related to Options, or any other Award under the Plan, are the ultimate responsibility of Executive.  DIRECTV, the members of the Board of Directors or the Committee shall not be liable to Executive or other person for any adverse tax consequences realized by Executive relating to the grant, vesting or exercise of the Option hereunder or any tax consequences relating to the later sale of shares of Common Stock purchased pursuant to an exercise of the Option.  

DIRECTV has made no representations to Executive with respect to the tax consequences of any Award or transactions contemplated herein.  Nothing stated herein is intended or written to be used, and cannot be used, for the purpose of avoiding taxpayer penalties. 

17.  Effect of Agreement.  This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successor or successors of DIRECTV, except to the extent the Committee determines otherwise.
 
18.   Entire Agreement; Governing Law.  The Plan is incorporated herein and made a part hereof by this reference.  Subject to Section 20 below, the Plan and this Agreement constitute the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede in their entirety all prior undertakings and agreements of DIRECTV and Executive with respect to the subject matter hereof.  The construction, interpretation, performance and enforcement of this Agreement and the Option shall be governed by the internal substantive laws, but not the choice of law rules, of the State of Delaware.
 
19.   Plan.  The Option and all rights of Executive with respect thereto are subject to, and Executive agrees to be bound by, all of the terms and conditions of the provisions of the Plan, as amended or supplemented in accordance with the Plan.  Executive acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan and agrees to be bound by the terms thereof as so amended or supplemented.  Unless otherwise expressly provided in other Sections of this Agreement, provisions of the Plan that confer discretionary authority on the Committee do not (and shall not be deemed to) create any rights in Executive unless such rights are expressly set forth herein or are otherwise in the sole discretion of the Committee specifically so conferred by appropriate action of the Committee under the Plan after the date hereof.
 
20.   Severance Plan.  If any provision of this Agreement is inconsistent with any provision of the Severance Plan (as it may be amended from time to time), the provisions of the Severance Plan shall control.
 
21.   Amendment.  The terms of this Agreement may be amended only by an agreement in writing executed by DIRECTV and Executive.  DIRECTV may amend or terminate the Plan at any time and for any reason, however, such amendment or termination shall not impair the rights or obligations of the parties under the Option without Executive’s consent, unless such modification is necessary or desirable to comply with any applicable law, regulation or rule.

22.   Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together shall constitute on and the same instrument.
 
23.   Section Headings.  The Section headings of this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not be deemed to alter or affect any provision hereof.
 
IN WITNESS WHEREOF , DIRECTV has caused this Agreement to be executed on its behalf by the Chairman of its Compensation Committee and Executive has hereunto set his hand as of the date and year first written above.
