NONCOMPETITION AGREEMENT    

        NONCOMPETITION
AGREEMENT (the "Agreement") dated as of this April 27, 2002 among Anthem Inc., an Indiana corporation ("Anthem"); Trigon Healthcare, Inc., a Virginia
corporation ("Trigon" or the "Company"); and Thomas R. Byrd (the "Executive" or "Covenantor"). 

        WHEREAS,
Covenantor is currently employed as Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of the Company; 

        WHEREAS,
the Company is entering into an Agreement and Plan of Merger of even date herewith (the "Merger Agreement") with Anthem, pursuant to which the Company will merge with and into
AI Sub Acquisition Corp. ("Merger Sub") which will survive as a wholly owned subsidiary of Anthem (the "Merger"); 

        WHEREAS,
Covenantor and the Company are parties to an Executive Continuity Agreement dated February 20, 2002 (the "Executive Continuity Agreement"), as well as the Employment
Agreement between Trigon and the Executive, dated April 29, 1998 (collectively with the Executive Continuity Agreement, the "Prior Agreements"); 

        WHEREAS,
Covenantor has entered into an Employment Agreement with the Company of even date herewith, pursuant to which Covenantor will serve as Senior Vice President for Finance of the
Southeast Region of the Company (the "New Agreement") which shall be effective at the Effective Time as defined in the Merger Agreement (the "Effective Time"); 

        WHEREAS,
in consideration of the willingness of Anthem and the Company to enter into the New Agreements, Covenantor agrees that the Prior Agreements shall be cancelled in their entirety
immediately prior to the Effective Time; 

        WHEREAS,
Covenantor agrees to enter into this Agreement in consideration for which Anthem will provide certain monetary consideration recited below; 

        NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual commitments contained in this Agreement, the parties hereto agree as follows: 

        1.    Effectiveness; Effect on Prior Agreements.    

        (a)  This
Agreement shall be effective as of the Effective Time. The parties agree that the Prior Agreements as well as any prior non-competition agreement
between Trigon and the Covenantor will be null and void in their entirety immediately prior to the Effective Time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Merger Agreement is terminated in accordance
with Article VII of the Merger Agreement, the Prior Agreements shall not be cancelled and this Agreement shall be null and void. 

        2.    Noncompete Consideration.    

        In
consideration for his execution and continuing compliance with this Agreement, Anthem will pay to Covenantor the amount of $556,515 in three equal annual installments, beginning
60 days after the Effective Time regardless of continued employment with Anthem or the Company. The unpaid installments shall accrue interest at the rate used under the Anthem Deferred
Compensation Plan. The unpaid installment payments under this Section 2 shall be forfeitable upon a breach by the Executive of this Agreement. 

        3.    Other Payments.    

        In
addition, Anthem will pay to Covenantor the amount of $1,669,545 in three equal annual installments, beginning 60 days after the Effective Time regardless of continued
employment with Anthem or the Company. The unpaid installments shall accrue interest at the rate used under the Anthem Deferred Compensation Plan. The installment payments under this Section 3
shall under no circumstances be forfeitable. 

 

        4.    Non-Competition.    

        For
26 months following the Effective Time (the "Restrictive Period"), Anthem and its subsidiaries ("Anthem Affiliates") must protect their legitimate business interests by
limiting the Executive's ability to compete with Anthem Affiliates. This non-competition provision is drafted narrowly so as to be able to safeguard Anthem Affiliates' legitimate business
interests while not unreasonably interfering with the Executive's ability to obtain other employment. Anthem Affiliates does not intend, and the Executive acknowledges, that this limited
non-competition provision is not an attempt to prevent the Executive from obtaining other employment. The Executive further acknowledges that Anthem Affiliates may need to take action,
including litigation, to enforce this limited non-competition provision, which efforts the parties stipulate shall not be deemed an attempt to prevent the Executive from obtaining other
employment. 

        (a)    Restrictive Period.    During the Restrictive Period, the Executive shall not: 

          (i)  (A)
directly or indirectly have any ownership interest in any entity or person engaged in development or sale of a product or service which competes with or is
substantially similar to any product or service sold by Anthem Affiliates, in any jurisdiction in which Anthem Affiliates operates or in which Anthem Affiliates reasonably expects to operate pursuant
to provisions of a strategic plan adopted by the Board of Directors; 

                (B)  directly
or indirectly have any ownership interest in any entity or person engaged in development or sale of a product or service which
competes with or is substantially similar to any product or service sold by Anthem Affiliates, within the geographical area in which the Executive has been performing services on behalf of Anthem
Affiliates or for which he has been assigned responsibility at any time within the Restrictive Period; 

        (ii)  (A)
in a competitive capacity, directly or indirectly work for, advise, manage, or act as an agent or consultant for or have any business connection or business or
employment relationship with any entity or person engaged in development or sale of a product or service which competes with or is substantially similar to any product or service sold by Anthem
Affiliates, in any jurisdiction in which Anthem Affiliates operates or in which Anthem Affiliates reasonably expects to operate pursuant to provisions of a strategic plan adopted by the Board of
Directors; 

                (B)  in
a competitive capacity, directly or indirectly work for, advise, manage, or act as an agent or consultant for or have any business
connection or business or employment relationship with any entity or person engaged in development or sale of a product or service which competes with or is substantially similar to any product or
service sold by Anthem Affiliates, within the geographical area in which the Executive has been performing services on behalf of Anthem Affiliates or for which the Executive has been assigned
responsibility at any time within the Restrictive Period; 

        (iii)  (A)
directly or indirectly market, sell or otherwise provide any product or service which is competitive with or substantially similar to any product or service sold
by Anthem Affiliates, to any customer of Anthem Affiliates with whom the Executive has had contact (either directly or indirectly) or over which he has had responsibility at any time within the
Restrictive Period; 

                (B)  directly
or indirectly market, sell or otherwise provide any product or service which is competitive with or substantially similar to any
product or service sold by Anthem Affiliates, to any customer of Anthem Affiliates; and 

        (iv)  directly
or indirectly, on behalf of the Executive or any third party, make any business contacts with, solicit or accept business from any customer of Anthem
Affiliates for 

2

 

any product or service which is competitive with or substantially similar to any product or service sold by Anthem. 

        (b)    Acknowledgment of Anthem Affiliates' Superseding Interest in Protecting its Business.    The Executive
recognizes that personal relationships between Anthem, its employees and customers are essential to Anthem Affiliates' business operations and that Anthem Affiliates furthers such relationships by
investments of time and money. The Executive recognizes that this Agreement is reasonably necessary to protect Anthem Affiliates' legitimate interest in its customers, and to protect Anthem
Affiliates' confidential information and goodwill, and acknowledges that nothing contained in this Agreement shall unreasonably alter the Executive's ability to obtain a livelihood or preclude the
Executive from engaging in his profession. The Executive, therefore, acknowledges that Anthem Affiliates' interest in maintaining its relationships with its established customers during the
Restrictive Period, supersedes any interest of the Executive in soliciting, servicing, or accepting Anthem Affiliates' customers on behalf of any entity other than Anthem Affiliates during that period
of time. 

        (c)    Publicly Traded Stock.    Nothing in the foregoing provisions of this section prohibits the Executive from
purchasing for investment purposes only, any stock or corporate security traded or quoted on a national securities exchange or national market system. 

        (d)    Maximum Application.    The parties expressly agree that the terms of this limited non-competition
provision under this section are reasonable, enforceable, and necessary to protect Anthem Affiliates' interests, and are valid and enforceable. In the unlikely event, however, that a court of
competent jurisdiction were to determine that any portion of this limited non-competition provision is unenforceable, then the parties agree that the remainder of the limited
non-competition provision shall remain valid and enforceable to the maximum extent possible. 

        5.    Other Limited Prohibitions.    

        During
the Restrictive Period, the Executive shall not: 

        (a)  request
or advise any customer of Anthem Affiliates, or any person or entity having business dealings with Anthem Affiliates, to withdraw, curtail or cease such business
with Anthem Affiliates; 

        (b)  disclose
to any person or entity the identities of any customers of Anthem Affiliates, or the identity of any persons or entities having business dealings with Anthem
Affiliates; or 

        (c)  directly
or indirectly influence or attempt to influence any other employee of Anthem Affiliates to separate from Anthem Affiliates. 

        6.    Specific Enforcement/Injunctive Relief.    

        The
Executive agrees that it would be difficult to measure damages to Anthem Affiliates from any breach of the covenants contained in Sections 4 and 5, but that such damages from any
breach would be great, incalculable and irremediable, and that damages would be an inadequate remedy. Accordingly, the Executive agrees that Anthem Affiliates may have specific performance of the
terms of this Agreement in any court permitted by this Agreement. In addition, if the Executive violates the non-competition provisions of Section 4. the Executive agrees that any
period of such violation shall be added to the term of the non-competition. For example, if the Executive violates the provision for three (3) months, Anthem Affiliates shall be
entitled to enforce the non-competition provision during the Restrictive Period, plus three (3) months following the conclusion of the Restrictive Period. In determining the period
of any violation, the parties stipulate that in any calendar month in which the Executive engages in any activity violative of the non-competition provision, the Executive is deemed to
have violated the non-competition provision for the entire month, and that month shall be added to the duration of the non-competition provision as set out above. The parties
agree however, that specific performance and the "add back" remedies described above shall not be the exclusive remedies, and 

3

 

Anthem Affiliates may enforce any other remedy or remedies available to it either in law or in equity including, but not limited to, temporary, preliminary, and/or permanent injunctive relief. 

        7.    Choice of Forum.    

        Anthem
Affiliates is based in Indiana, and the Executive understands and acknowledges Anthem Affiliates' desire and need to defend any litigation against it in Indiana. Accordingly, the
parties agree that any claim of any type brought by the Executive against Anthem Affiliates or any of its employees
or agents must be maintained only in a court sitting in Marion County, Indiana, or, if a federal court, the Southern District of Indiana, Indianapolis Division. 

        The
Executive further understands and acknowledges that in the event Anthem Affiliates initiates litigation against the Executive, Anthem Affiliates may need to prosecute such litigation
in the Executive's forum state, in the State of Indiana, or in such other state where the Executive is subject to personal jurisdiction. Accordingly, the parties agree that Anthem Affiliates can
pursue any claim against the Executive in any forum in which the Executive is subject to personal jurisdiction. The Executive specifically consents to personal jurisdiction in the State of Indiana.
The Executive expressly waives any rights to a jury trial and agrees that any claim of any type made against Anthem Affiliates or its agents or executives (including, but not limited to, the
restrictions contained in Sections 4 and 5, or any other claim) lodged in any court will be tried, if at all, without a jury. 

        8.    Entire Agreement; Modification.    

        This
Agreement contains the entire agreement between Covenantor, Anthem, the Company and with respect to the subject matter hereof and it is the complete, final and exclusive embodiment
of our agreement with regard to this subject matter hereof. It is entered into without reliance on any promise or representation other than those expressly contained herein, and it cannot be amended
except in writing signed by all parties. 

        In
case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall, for any reason, be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality
or unenforceability shall not affect the other provisions of this Agreement, and this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained
herein. If, moreover, any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall for any reason be held to be excessively broad as to duration, geographical scope, activity or subject, it
shall be construed by limiting and reducing it, so as to be enforceable to the extent compatible with the applicable law as it shall then appear. 

        9.    Notices.    

        For
purposes of this Agreement, all notices and other communications required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given when delivered or
five (5) days after deposit in the United States mail, certified and return receipt requested, postage prepaid, to such address as either party may have furnished to the other in writing in
accordance herewith, except that notices of change of address shall be effective only upon receipt. 

        10.    Waiver.    

        Failure
of Anthem Affiliates to insist upon strict compliance with any terms or provisions of this Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver of any terms, provisions or rights of Anthem
Affiliates.
Moreover, no modifications, amendments, extensions or waivers of this Agreement or any provisions hereof shall be binding upon Anthem Affiliates or the Executive unless in writing and signed by the
Executive and Anthem Affiliates. 

        11.    Assignment.    

        This
Agreement and any rights or obligations hereunder may be assigned by the Company or Anthem to any successor in interest to the Company's or Anthem's business. This Agreement may not
be assigned by Covenantor.

        12.    Headings.    

        The
headings of the sections hereof are inserted for convenience only and shall not be deemed to constitute a part hereof nor to affect the meaning thereof. 

        13.    Governing Law.    

        This
Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Indiana. The parties expressly agree that it is appropriate for Indiana law to apply to: (i) the interpretation of the
Agreement; (ii) any disputes arising out of this Agreement; (iii) any disputes arising out of the employment relationship of the parties; and (iv) any and all other disputes
between the parties. 

        14.    Legal Fees.    

        If
any dispute arises in connection with the enforcement or interpretation of the Executive's rights under this Agreement, the Company shall pay all reasonable legal fees and expenses
incurred by the Executive in connection with such dispute, irrespective of the outcome of such dispute.

extend credit to enable it to borrow term loans on the Effective Date in a principal amount not in excess of $1,200,000,000 at any time outstanding. The proceeds of borrowings hereunder are to be used

Loan to the Borrower in an amount not exceeding such Lender's Commitment. There shall be only one funding under the Commitments which shall be on the Effective Date. Any amount borrowed under this

outstanding amount of the Loans. Borrowings of more than one Type may be outstanding at the same time; provided that there shall not at any time be more
than a total of five Eurodollar Borrowings outstanding. 

        (d)  Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement, no Borrower shall be entitled to request, or to elect to convert or continue any Borrowing if the Interest Period
requested with respect thereto would end after the Maturity Date. 

        SECTION

        (b)  Unless
the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the Effective Date that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent
such Lender's share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and may,
in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the Borrowing available to the Administrative

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

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

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

        (e)  If
the Borrower shall fail to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurodollar Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable
thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing. Notwithstanding any contrary provision
hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Borrower, then, so long as an Event of Default is

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

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

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

        (e)  Any
Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a
promissory note payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and in a form approved by the Administrative Agent. Thereafter, the
Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 8.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form
payable to the order of the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns). 

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

prepayment of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, one Business Day before the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the
prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall
advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided in
Section 2.02. Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required
by Section 2.11 and shall be subject to break funding payments to the extent required by Section 2.14. 

        (b)  Mandatory Prepayments.

        (i)

within one hundred eighty (180) days of receipt thereof in long term productive assets of the general type used in the business of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries;  further provided that no such
prepayment shall be required to be made to the extent it shall be prohibited by any Governmental Authority having
jurisdiction over the Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries so long as the Borrower shall have used its best efforts to obtain removal of such prohibition. 

        (ii)
Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds. No later than the first Business Day following the date of receipt by the Borrower or any of the
Subsidiaries, or Administrative Agent as loss payee, of any Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds, the Borrower shall prepay the Loans in an aggregate amount equal to such Net Insurance/Condemnation
Proceeds; provided that, to the extent the amount of such Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds shall exceed the aggregate amount of the Loans then
outstanding, the Commitments shall be permanently reduced by an amount equal to such excess; provided further that (A) so long as no Default or
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and (B) to the extent that aggregate Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds from the Effective Date through the applicable date of
determination do not exceed $25,000,000, the Borrower shall have the option, directly or through one or more of the Subsidiaries, to invest such Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds within one hundred
eighty (180) days of receipt thereof in long term productive assets of the general type used in the business of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries, which investment may include the repair,
restoration or replacement of the applicable assets thereof. 

        (iii)
Issuance of Equity Securities. On the date of receipt by the Borrower of any Cash proceeds from a capital contribution to, or the
issuance of any Capital Stock of, the Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries
(other than pursuant to any employee stock or stock option compensation plan), the Borrower shall prepay the Loans in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of such proceeds net of underwriting discounts
and commissions and other reasonable costs and expenses associated therewith, including reasonable legal fees and expenses; provided that, to the extent
the amount of such net proceeds shall exceed the aggregate amount of the Loans then outstanding, the Commitments shall be permanently reduced by an amount equal to such excess. 

        (iv)
Issuance of Debt. On the date (a) of receipt by the Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries of any Cash proceeds from incurrence
of any Indebtedness of the Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries or (b) on which the Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries shall be able to incur any Indebtedness pursuant to any bank credit
facility or other financing arrangement (other than, in either of cases (a) or (b), with respect to any Exempt Indebtedness and, in the case of (b) only, with respect to any Indebtedness
able to be incurred pursuant to the Existing Credit Agreements), the Borrower shall prepay the Loans in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of such proceeds or amount of Indebtedness available to be
incurred under such bank credit facility or other financing arrangement, net of underwriting discounts and commissions and other reasonable costs and expenses associated therewith, including
reasonable legal fees and expenses; provided that, to the extent the amount of any such net proceeds or amount of Indebtedness available to be incurred
shall exceed the aggregate amount of the Loans then outstanding, the Commitments shall be permanently reduced by an amount equal to such excess. 

        (v)
Dividends. On the date of receipt by the Borrower of any Cash proceeds received by the Borrower from dividends paid by AICI, the
Borrower shall prepay the Loans in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of such Cash proceeds; provided that, to the extent the amount of such Cash

permanently reduced by an amount equal to such excess. 

        SECTION
2.10.    Fees.    (a) (i) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the
account of each Lender a facility fee, which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate on the daily amount of the aggregate Exposures of all the Lenders. 

        Accrued
facility fees shall be payable in arrears on the last day of March, June, September and December of each year and on the Maturity Date, commencing on the first such date to occur
after the date hereof; provided that any facility fees accruing after the Maturity Date shall be payable on demand. All facility fees shall be computed
on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). 

        (b)  [Intentionally
Omitted.] 

        (c)  The
Borrower agrees to pay to the Agents, for their own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between the Borrower and the Agents. 

        (d)  All
fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent for distribution, in the case of facility fees, to
the Lenders and, in the case of fees referred to in Section 2.10(c), to the Agents. Fees paid shall not be refundable. 

        SECTION
2.11.    Interest.    (a) The portions of the Loans consisting of ABR Borrowings shall bear interest
at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate (if any). 

        (b)  The
portions of the Loans consisting of Eurodollar Borrowings shall bear interest at the LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the
Applicable Rate. 

        (c)  [Intentionally
Omitted.] 

        (d)  Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at
stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of
any Loan, 2% per annum plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2% per annum plus the
rate applicable to ABR Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section. 

        (e)  Accrued
interest on each Loan shall constitute an obligation of the Borrower and shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan;  provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to
paragraph (d) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any
repayment or prepayment of any Loan, accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any
conversion of any Eurodollar Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion. 

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

21

 

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

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

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

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

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

        (i)
impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender; or 

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

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

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

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

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

22

  

        SECTION 2.14.    Break Funding Payments.    In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurodollar
Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of
the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Loan on the date or in the amount specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto, or
(d) the assignment of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.17, then, in
any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurodollar Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be
deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not
occurred, at the LIBO Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a
failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for
such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the
eurodollar market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be
conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof. 

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

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

        (c)
The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other
Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder (including Indemnified Taxes
or Other Taxes
imposed or asserted on or attributable to a mounts payable under this Section) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such
Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the
Borrower by a Lender, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

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

        (e)
Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is located, or any treaty to which
such 

23

 

jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law, such
properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate,
provided that such Foreign Lender has received written notice from the Borrower advising it of the availability of such exemption or reduction and containing all applicable documentation. 

        (f)
If the Administrative Agent or a Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the
Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.15, it shall pay over such refund to the Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity
payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 2.15 with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all
out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such
refund); provided, that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower
(plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is
required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This Section shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other
information relating to its taxes which it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person. 

        SECTION
2.16. Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs. (a) The Borrower shall make each payment
required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest or fees, or of amounts payable under Section 2.13, 2.14 or 2.15, or otherwise) prior to 12:00 noon, New York City time, on
the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be
deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest
thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its offices at 85 Broad Street, New York, New York 10004, except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.13, 2.14, 2.15 and 8.03
shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient
promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the
case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder shall be made in dollars. 

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

        (c)
If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans
resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender
receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared
by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans; provided that
(i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to
the extent of such 

24

 

recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms
of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower
or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under
applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such
participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation. 

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

        (e)
If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it hereunder (including, without limitation, pursuant to Sections 2.05 or 2.16), then the Administrative Agent
may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender's
obligations hereunder until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid. 

        SECTION
2.17. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. (a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.13,
or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.15, then such Lender shall use
reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or
affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.13 or 2.15, as the case may be, in the
future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable
costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. 

        (b)
If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.13, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account
of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.15, or if any Lender defaults in its obligation to fund its Loan hereunder, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender
and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 8.04), all its interests,
rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment);  provided that (i) the
Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, which consent shall not unreasonably be
withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it
hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of any such
assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.13 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.15, such assignment will result in a material reduction in
such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any 

25

 

such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to
apply.

untrue statement of a material fact or omitted, omits or will omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained herein or therein not misleading in light of the
circumstances in which the same were made. As of the date of this Agreement, there is no fact known to the Borrower (other than matters of a general economic nature) that has had since
December 31, 2001, or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and that has not been disclosed herein or in such other documents, certificates and statements furnished to
the Lenders for use in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions.

        SECTION 3.20.    Capital Stock and Ownership.    The Capital Stock of the Borrower and each Subsidiary has been
duly
authorized and validly issued and is fully paid and non-assessable. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.20, as of the date hereof, there is no existing option, warrant, call, right,
commitment or other agreement to which the Borrower or any Subsidiary is a party requiring, and there is no Capital Stock of the Borrower or any Subsidiary outstanding which upon conversion or
exchange would require, the issuance by the Borrower or any Subsidiary of any additional Capital Stock of the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Securities convertible into, exchangeable for or
evidencing the right to subscribe for or purchase, Capital Stock of the Borrower or any Subsidiary. Schedule 3.20 correctly sets forth the ownership interest of the Borrower and each Subsidiary
in their respective subsidiaries as of the Effective Date after giving effect to the Acquisition.

Existing Credit Agreements shall be amended, restated, supplemented, refinanced or otherwise modified so as to increase by any increment the rates at which interest and/or facility or similar fees
shall accrue thereunder, then this Agreement shall be deemed automatically amended so that the rates
at which interest and/or facility fees, as applicable, shall accrue under this Agreement shall be correspondingly increased by such increment, provided that no such amendment of this Agreement shall
be deemed to occur to the extent that any such incremental increase has occurred under either of the Existing Credit Agreements solely by reason of a change in the rating assigned by S&P and/or
Moody's to the Index Debt (as defined under the Existing Credit Agreements). 

        In
connection with the foregoing, the Borrower agrees, concurrently with the preparation of the documentation for any amendment, restatement, supplement, refinancing or other
modification (a "Modification") that will trigger the requirements of the foregoing paragraph, to prepare and deliver to the Administrative Agent for

implemented concurrently with the execution of any Modification. The Borrower shall provide the Administrative Agent with a copy of the documentation for any Modification promptly upon the
Modification becoming effective, and (except to the extent that furnishing the same to the Administrative Agent would either breach a legal requirement to keep the same confidential, or would be
competitively disadvantageous to the banks or other parties providing the credit facilities under the Existing Credit Agreements) copies of drafts of such documentation as they are prepared. In
addition, the Borrower shall obtain any authorizations, approvals or consents of, or any filings or registrations with, any Governmental Authority, or any securities exchange, that are necessary to
implement the amendments described in this paragraph and to make the undertakings of the Borrower in respect thereof, valid and enforceable.

ARTICLE VII
  
    The Administrative Agent

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

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

        The
Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Administrative
Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take
any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise in writing by
the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 8.02), and (c) except as expressly set forth
herein, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any Subsidiary that is
communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. 

        The
Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the
Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 8.02) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed
not to have knowledge of any Default, except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts required to be paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of
the Lenders, unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower or a Lender, and the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to
ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document
delivered hereunder or in connection herewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein, (iv) the validity,
enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or
elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent. None of the Lenders identified on the facing page or signature pages of this
Agreement as a "syndication agent" or a "documentation agent" shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than those applicable to all Lenders
as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Lenders so identified shall have or be
deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any of the Lenders so identified in deciding to enter into this
Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder. 

        The
Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or
other writing believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and
believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. The Administrative 

41

 

Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it
in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. 

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

        Subject
to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent as provided in this paragraph, the Administrative Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders and
the Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, to appoint a successor. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the
Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on
behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as
Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the
retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to
its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the Administrative Agent's resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 8.03 shall
continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any
of them while it was acting as Administrative Agent. 

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

Any
party hereto may change its address or telecopy number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto. All notices and other communications given to any party
hereto in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been given on the date of receipt. 

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

        (b)
Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the
Required Lenders or by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall
(i) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender, (ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any
fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (iii) postpone the scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan, or any interest thereon,
or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender
affected thereby, (iv) change Section 2.16(b) or (c) in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender, or
(v) change any of the provisions of this Section or the definition of "Required Lenders" or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or
modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender; provided further that
no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, any provision of this Agreement may be amended by an agreement in writing entered into by the Borrower, the Required Lenders and the Administrative Agent if (i) by the terms of such
agreement the Commitment of each Lender not consenting to the amendment provided for therein shall terminate upon the effectiveness of such amendment and (ii) at the time such amendment becomes
effective, each Lender not consenting thereto receives payment in full of the principal of and interest accrued on each Loan made by it and all other amounts owing to it or accrued for its account
under this Agreement. 

        SECTION
8.03. Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver. (a) The Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative
Agent, in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation and administration of this Agreement or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the
provisions hereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated) and (ii) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the
Administrative Agent or any Lender, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent or any Lender, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its
rights in connection with this Agreement, including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses
incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans. 

43

   
        (b) The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an
"Indemnitee") against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the
fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or
delivery of this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or the consummation of the Transactions
or any other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any Loan or the use of the proceeds therefrom, (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any
property owned or operated by the Borrower or any of its subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to the Borrower or any of its subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or
prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party
thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses resulted from the gross negligence
or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. 

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

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

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

        SECTION
8.04. Successors and Assigns. (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior
written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower without such consent shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or
implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the
Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. 

        (b)
Any Lender may assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Exposure);  provided that (i) except in
the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund of any Lender, or an assignment
by or to GSCP, the Administrative Agent must give its prior written consent to such assignment (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), (ii) except in the case of an
assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender's Exposure, the amount of the Exposure of the assigning Lender subject to
each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000 unless the
Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, (iii) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender's rights and
obligations under this Agreement (iv) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, and (v) the assignee, if it shall
not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire; and provided further that any consent of the Borrower
otherwise required under this paragraph shall not be required if a Default has occurred and 

44

 

is continuing. Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (d) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance the assignee
thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning
Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and
Acceptance covering all of the assigning Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of
Sections 2.13, 2.14, 2.15 and 8.03). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph shall be treated for purposes of this
Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (e) of this Section. 

        (c)
The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in The City of New York a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance
delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms
hereof from time to time (the "Register"). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders
may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register
shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 

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

        (e)
Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a
"Participant") in all or a portion of such Lender's rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or
the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender's obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall
remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal
solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation
shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement;  provided that such agreement
or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment,
modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 8.02(b)(ii) or (iii) that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (f) of this Section, the Borrower
agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.13, 2.14 and 2.15 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to
paragraph (b) of this Section. 

        (f)
A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.13 or 2.15 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to
the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower's prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if
it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.15 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit
of the Borrower, to comply with Section 2.15(e) as though it were a Lender. 

        (g)
Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or
assignment 

45

 

to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided
that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. 

        (h)
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a "Granting Lender") may grant to a special purpose funding
vehicle utilized by such Granting Lender (an "SPC"), identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent
and the Borrower, the option to provide to the Borrower all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement;  provided
that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to make any Loan, (ii) if a SPC elects not to exercise such
option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting
Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. The making of a Loan by a SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if,
such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. 

Each
party hereto hereby agrees that no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement (all liability for which shall remain with the Granting Lender). In
furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment
in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior indebtedness of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy,
reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings under the laws of the United States or any State thereof. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement, any SPC may (i) with prior notice to, but without the prior written consent of, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans to
its Granting Lender or to any financial institutions providing liquidity and/or credit support to or for the account of such SPC to support the funding or maintenance of Loans and (ii) disclose
on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity
enhancement to such SPC. This subsection (h) may not be amended without the written consent of each SPC which has Loans outstanding at the time such amendment is made. Except for its obligation
to fund any portion of its Commitment that is actually funded by an SPC, the obligations of the Granting Lender under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, the Granting Lender shall remain solely
responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with the
Granting Lender in connection with the Granting Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement. Except as otherwise provided in this subsection (h), the Granting Lender shall retain the sole
right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement. 

        SECTION
8.05. Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrower herein and in the certificates or
other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of
this Agreement and the making of any Loans, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had
notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any
accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of
Sections 2.13, 2.14, 2.15 and 8.03 and Article VII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the
Loans, the expiration or termination of the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof. 

46

 

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

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

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

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

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

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

        (d)
Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 8.01. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of
any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. 

47

 

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

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

        SECTION
8.12. Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information
(as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates' directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors
(it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential),
(b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority, (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other
party to this Agreement, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder,
(f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of
its rights or obligations under this Agreement, (g) with the consent of the Borrower or (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of
a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower. For the purposes of this Section,
"Information" means all information received from the Borrower
relating to the Borrower or their business, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower;
provided that, in the case of information received from the Borrower after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to
maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to
maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. 

        SECTION
8.13. Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to
any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively the "Charges"), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the
"Maximum Rate") which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such
Loan hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect
of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be
increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received
by such Lender.
