on which all of the following conditions precedent have been satisfied or
waived:

(a)                                  The Administrative Agent shall have received
a counterpart of this Amendment, executed and delivered by a duly authorized
officer of each of (i) the Borrower and (ii) the Requisite Lenders;

(b)                                 The Borrower shall have paid all fees and

(c)                                  After giving effect to the Amendment, no

SECTION 4.                                Representations

representations and warranties made by the Borrower in or pursuant to the Loan

representations and warranties expressly relate to an earlier date, in which case

Documents shall continue to be in full force and effect and are hereby in all
respects ratified and confirmed.

(b)                                 The
execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Amendment shall not operate as a
waiver of any right, power or remedy of any Lender or the Administrative Agent
under any of the Loan Documents, nor constitute a waiver of any provision of
any of the Loan Documents.

SECTION 6.                                Expenses.  The Borrower agrees to pay or reimburse the

Waiver, Cumulative Remedies.  No
failure or delay or course of dealing on the part of the Lenders or the
Administrative Agent in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder
shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of
any such right, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise
thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder.  The rights, powers and remedies herein
expressly provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, powers or
remedies which the Lenders or the Administrative Agent would otherwise
have.  No notice to or demand on the

or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the
rights of the Lenders to any other or further action in any circumstances
without notice or demand.

SECTION 8.                                Severability.  In case any provision in or obligation under
this Amendment shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction,
the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or
obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction,
shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

SECTION 10.                       Execution
in Counterparts; Effectiveness of Facsimile.  This Amendment may be executed by one or more
of the parties to this Amendment on any number of separate counterparts, and

For
purposes of this definition, the Performance Level shall be determined by the
applicable public debt rating for the Borrower as follows:  (i) the public debt ratings shall be

as the case may be, for any class of non-credit-enhanced long-term senior

Performance Level will be Level V; (iv) if such public debt ratings established
by S&P and Moody’s shall fall within different levels, the public debt
rating will be determined by the higher of the two ratings, provided
that, in the event that the lower of such public debt ratings is more than one
level below the higher of such public debt ratings, the public debt rating will
be determined based upon the level that is one level above the lower of such
public debt ratings; (v) if any such public debt rating established by S&P
or Moody’s shall be changed, such change shall be effective as of the 

 3

S&P or Moody’s, as the case may be, shall refer to the then-equivalent
rating by S&P or Moody’s, as the case may be.

any category of liabilities which includes deposits by reference to which the
applicable LIBOR rate is to be determined, or (ii) any category of extensions
of credit or other assets which include LIBOR Rate Loans.  For purposes hereof, a LIBOR Rate Loan shall
be deemed to constitute Eurocurrency liabilities and as such shall be deemed

exceptions or offsets that may be available from time to time to the applicable

Credit is acceptable to the Issuing Bank in its reasonable discretion (it being
understood that any such form shall have only explicit documentary conditions
to draw and shall not include discretionary conditions), the Issuing Bank will,
unless any Lender gives prior notice to the Issuing Bank or the Administrative
Agent that the applicable conditions of Section 3.2 would not be satisfied at

risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of the Letters of Credit issued
by the Issuing Bank, by the respective 

 26
 

beneficiaries
of such Letters of Credit.  In
furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Issuing Bank shall not
be responsible for:  (i) the form,
validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document
submitted by any party in connection with the application for and issuance of
any such Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all
respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged; (ii) the
validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or
purporting to transfer or assign any such Letter of Credit or the rights or
benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove
to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii) failure of the beneficiary
of any such Letter of Credit to comply fully with any conditions required in
order to draw upon such Letter of Credit; (iv) errors, omissions, interruptions
or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable,
telegraph, telex or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (v) errors in
interpretation of technical terms; (vi) any loss or delay in the transmission

the control of the Issuing Bank, including any Governmental Acts; none of the
above shall affect or impair, or prevent the vesting of, any of the Issuing
Bank’s rights or powers hereunder. 
Without limiting the foregoing and in furtherance thereof, any action taken
or omitted by the Issuing Bank under or in connection with the Letters of
Credit or any documents and certificates delivered thereunder, if taken or
omitted in good faith, shall not give rise to any liability on the part of the
Issuing Bank to the Borrower. 
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.2C,
the Borrower shall retain any and all rights it may have against the Issuing
Bank for any liability arising out of the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of the Issuing Bank.

D.            Reimbursement by the
Borrower of Amounts Drawn or Paid Under Letters of Credit.  In
the event the Issuing Bank has determined to honor a drawing under a Letter of
Credit, it shall immediately notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent,
and the Borrower shall reimburse the Issuing Bank on or before the Business Day
immediately following the date on which such drawing is honored (the “Reimbursement Date”) in an amount in Dollars and in same day
funds equal to the amount of such honored drawing; provided, anything
contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) unless the Borrower shall
have notified the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank prior to 10:00 a.m.
(New York City time) on the date such drawing is honored that the Borrower intends
to reimburse the Issuing Bank for the amount of such honored drawing with funds
other than the proceeds of Loans, the Borrower shall be deemed to have given a
timely Notice of Borrowing to the Administrative Agent requesting the Lenders
to make Base Rate Loans on the Reimbursement Date in an amount in Dollars equal
to the amount of such honored drawing, and (ii) subject to satisfaction or
waiver of the applicable conditions specified in Section 3.2, the Lenders
shall, on the Reimbursement Date, make Base Rate Loans in the amount of such
honored drawing, the proceeds of which shall be applied directly by the
Administrative Agent to reimburse the Issuing Bank for the amount of such
honored drawing; and provided further, if
for any reason proceeds of Loans are not received by the Issuing Bank on the
Reimbursement Date in an amount equal to the amount of such honored drawing,
the Borrower shall reimburse the Issuing Bank, on demand, in an amount in same
day funds equal to the excess of the amount of such honored drawing over the
aggregate amount of such Loans, if any, which are so received.  Nothing in this Section 2.2D shall be deemed
to relieve any Lender from its obligation to make Loans on the terms and
conditions set forth 

 27
 

herein,
and the Borrower shall retain any and all rights it may have against any Lender
resulting from the failure of such Lender to make such Loans under this Section
2.2D.

E.             Lenders’ Purchase
of Participations in Letters of Credit. 
Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Lender
having a Commitment shall be deemed to have purchased, and hereby agrees to
irrevocably purchase, from the Issuing Bank a participation in such Letter of
Credit and any drawings honored thereunder in an amount equal to such Lender’s
Pro Rata Share (with respect to the Commitments) of the maximum amount which is
or at any time may become available to be drawn thereunder.  In the event that the Borrower shall fail for
any reason to reimburse the Issuing Bank as provided in Section 2.2D, the Issuing
Bank shall promptly notify each Lender of the unreimbursed amount of such
honored drawing and of such Lender’s respective participation therein based on
such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Commitments.  Each Lender shall make available to the Issuing
Bank an amount equal to its respective participation, in Dollars and in same
day funds, at the office of the Issuing Bank specified in such notice, not
later than 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the first Business Day (under the
laws of the jurisdiction in which such office of the Issuing Bank is located)
after the date notified by the Issuing Bank. 
In the event that any Lender fails to make available to the Issuing Bank
on such Business Day the amount of such Lender’s participation in such Letter
of Credit as provided in this Section 2.2E, the Issuing Bank shall be entitled
to recover such amount on demand from such Lender together with interest
thereon for three Business Days at the rate customarily used by the Issuing
Bank for the correction of errors among banks and thereafter at the Base
Rate.  Nothing in this Section 2.2E shall
be deemed to prejudice the right of any Lender to recover from the Issuing Bank
any amounts made available by such Lender to the Issuing Bank pursuant to this
Section 2.2E in the event that it is determined that the payment with respect
to a Letter of Credit in respect of which payment was made by such Lender
constituted gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Issuing
Bank.  In the event the Issuing Bank shall
have been reimbursed by other Lenders pursuant to this Section 2.2E for all or
any portion of any drawing honored by the Issuing Bank under a Letter of
Credit, the Issuing Bank shall distribute to each Lender which has paid all
amounts payable by it under this Section 2.2E with respect to such honored
drawing such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of all payments subsequently received by
the Issuing Bank from the Borrower in reimbursement of such honored drawing
when such payments are received.  Any
such distribution shall be made to a Lender at its notice address set forth on
the signature pages hereto or at such other address as such Lender may request.

F.             Obligations
Absolute.  The obligation of the Borrower to reimburse
the Issuing Bank for drawings honored under the Letters of Credit issued by it
and to repay any Loans made by Lenders pursuant to Section 2.2D and the
obligations of Lenders under Section 2.2E shall be unconditional and
irrevocable and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms hereof under
all circumstances including any of the following circumstances:  (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of
any Letter of Credit; (ii) the existence of any claim, set off, defense or
other right which the Borrower or any Lender may have at any time against a
beneficiary or any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Persons for whom
any such transferee may be acting), the Issuing Bank, any Lender or any other
Person or, in the case of a Lender, against the Borrower, whether in connection
herewith, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transaction
(including any underlying transaction between the Borrower or one of its
Subsidiaries and the beneficiary for which any Letter of Credit was procured);
(iii) any draft or other 

 28
 

document
presented under any Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid
or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or
inaccurate in any respect; (iv) payment by the Issuing Bank under any Letter of
Credit against presentation of a draft or other document which does not
strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; (v) the occurrence of
any Material Adverse Effect; (vi) any breach hereof or any other Loan Document
by any party thereto; (vii) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever,
whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; or (viii) the fact that an
Event of Default or a Potential Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing; provided, in each case, that payment by the Issuing Bank
under the applicable Letter of Credit shall not have constituted gross
negligence or willful misconduct of the Issuing Bank under the circumstances in
question.

G.            Indemnification. 
Without duplication of any obligation of the Borrower under Section 9.2
or 9.3, in addition to amounts payable as provided therein, the Borrower hereby
agrees to protect, indemnify, pay and save harmless the Issuing Bank from and
against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, costs,
charges and expenses (including reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of
counsel and, without duplication, allocated costs of internal counsel) which
the Issuing Bank may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or
indirect, of (i) the issuance of any Letter of Credit by the Issuing Bank,
other than as a result of (1) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the
Issuing Bank or (2) the wrongful dishonor by the Issuing Bank of a proper
demand for payment made under any Letter of Credit issued by it, or (ii) the
failure of the Issuing Bank to honor a drawing under any such Letter of Credit
as a result of any Governmental Act.

2.3                               Pro
Rata Shares; Availability of Funds; UCP.

A.            Pro Rata Shares.  All
Loans shall be made, and all participations purchased, by the Lenders (or, if
applicable, by their Affiliates) simultaneously and proportionately to their
respective Pro Rata Shares (determined as of the date of such Loans or such
purchases, as the case may be), it being understood that no Lender shall be
responsible for any default by any other Lender in such other Lender’s
obligation to make a Loan requested hereunder or purchase a participation
required hereby nor shall any Commitment of any Lender be increased or
decreased as a result of a default by any other Lender in such other Lender’s
obligation to make a Loan requested hereunder or purchase a participation
required hereby.  Each Lender
acknowledges and agrees that its participation in each Letter of Credit will be
automatically adjusted to reflect such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of each Letter
of Credit at each time such Lender’s Commitment is increased pursuant to
Section 2.14, reduced on a date prior to the date to which the Maturity Date
may have been extended pursuant to Section 2.15, amended pursuant to an
assignment in accordance with Section 9.1 or otherwise changed pursuant to this
Agreement.

B.            Availability of
Funds.  Unless the Administrative Agent shall have
been notified by any Lender prior to the applicable Credit Date that such
Lender does not intend to make available to the Administrative Agent the amount
of such Lender’s Loan requested on such Credit Date, the Administrative Agent
may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to the
Administrative Agent on such Credit Date and the Administrative Agent may, in
its sole discretion, but shall not be obligated to, make available to the
Borrower a corresponding amount on such Credit Date.  If such corresponding amount is not in fact
made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender or an Affiliate of such
Lender, the Administrative Agent 

 29
 

shall
be entitled to recover such corresponding amount on demand from such Lender
together with interest thereon, for each day from such Credit Date until the
date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent, at the customary rate set
by the Administrative Agent for the correction of errors among banks for three
Business Days and thereafter at the Base Rate. 
If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon the
Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, the Administrative Agent shall promptly
notify the Borrower and the Borrower shall immediately pay such corresponding
amount to the Administrative Agent together with interest thereon, for each day
from such Credit Date until the date such amount is paid to the Administrative
Agent, at the rate payable hereunder for Base Rate Loans.  Nothing in this Section 2.3B shall be deemed
to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitments hereunder
or to prejudice any rights that the Borrower may have against any Lender as a
result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

C.            Uniform Customs and
Practice for Documentary Credits.  It is hereby agreed that,
except as otherwise specified in any Letter of Credit, each commercial Letter
of Credit shall be subject to the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary
Credits and each standby Letter of Credit shall be subject to the International
Standby Practices (ISP 98).

2.4                               The
Register; Evidence of Debt; Notes.

A.            Register.

(i)            The Administrative
Agent shall maintain at its Payment and Funding Office a register for the
recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitment and
Loans of each Lender from time to time (the “Register”).  The Register shall be available for
inspection by the Credit Parties or any Lender at any reasonable time and from
time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 
The Administrative Agent shall record in the Register the Commitment and
the Loans of each Lender, and each repayment or prepayment in respect of the
principal amount of such Loans.  Any such
recordation shall be prima facie evidence of the amount owed to such Lender
hereunder; provided that failure to make any such recordation, or any
error in such recordation, shall not affect any Lender’s Commitment or the
Obligations in respect of any Loan.  The
Credit Parties hereby designate Citicorp to serve as the Credit Parties’ agent
solely for purposes of maintaining the Register as provided in this Section
2.4, and the Credit Parties hereby agree that, to the extent Citicorp serves in
such capacity, Citicorp and its officers, directors, employees, agents and
affiliates shall constitute “Indemnitees” hereunder.

(ii)           The Credit Parties,
the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall deem and treat the Persons listed
as Lenders in the Register as the holders and owners of the corresponding
Commitments and Loans listed therein for all purposes hereof, and no assignment
or transfer of any Commitment or Loan shall be effective, in each case unless
and until an Assignment Agreement effecting the assignment or transfer thereof
shall have been accepted by the Administrative Agent and recorded in the
Register as provided in Section 9.1C. 
Prior to such recordation, all amounts owed with respect to the
applicable Commitment or Loan shall be owed to the Lender listed in the
Register as the owner thereof, and any request, authority or consent of any
Person who, at the time of making such request or giving such authority or
consent, is listed in the Register as a Lender shall be conclusive and binding
on any subsequent holder, assignee or transferee of the corresponding
Commitments or Loans.

 30
 

B.            Lenders’ Evidence of
Debt.  Each Lender shall maintain on its internal
records an account or accounts evidencing the Obligations of each Credit Party
to such Lender, including the amounts of the Loans made by it and each
repayment and prepayment in respect thereof. 
Any such recordation shall be conclusive and binding on the Credit
Parties, absent manifest error; provided that the failure to make any
such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect any
Lender’s Commitments or the Obligations of the Credit Parties in respect of any
applicable Loans; and provided further, in
the event of any inconsistency between the Register and any Lender’s records,
the recordations in the Register shall govern.

C.            Notes.  If so
requested by any Lender by written notice to any Credit Party (with a copy to
the Administrative Agent), such Credit Party shall execute and deliver to such
Lender, promptly after such Credit Party’s receipt of such notice, a Note or
Notes to evidence such Lender’s Loans.

2.5                               Interest
on the Loans.

A.            Rate of Interest;
Type of Loan.

(i)            Subject to the
provisions of Sections 2.5E, 2.8 and 2.9, each Loan shall bear interest on the
unpaid principal amount thereof from the date made through the Maturity Date
(whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate equal to (a) if a Base Rate
Loan, the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin or (b) if a LIBOR Rate
Loan, the sum of LIBOR plus the Applicable Margin.

(ii)           The basis for
determining the rate of interest with respect to any Loan and the Interest
Period with respect to any LIBOR Rate Loan, shall be selected by the applicable
Credit Party and notified to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders pursuant
to the applicable Notice of Borrowing or Conversion/Continuation Notice, as the
case may be.  If on any day a Loan is
outstanding with respect to which a Notice of Borrowing or Conversion/Continuation
Notice has not been delivered to the Administrative Agent in accordance with
the terms hereof specifying the applicable basis for determining the rate of
interest, then for that day such Loan shall be a Base Rate Loan.

(iii)          With
respect to Dollar-Denominated Loans or Alternative Currency Loans denominated
in Canadian Dollars, in the event the Borrower fails to specify Base Rate Loans
or LIBOR Rate Loans in the applicable Notice of Borrowing or
Conversion/Continuation Notice, such Loans (if outstanding as a LIBOR Rate
Loans) will be automatically converted into Base Rate Loans on the last day of
the then current Interest Period for such Loans (or if outstanding as Base Rate
Loans will remain as, or (if not then outstanding) will be made as, Base Rate
Loans).  As soon as practicable after
11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on each Interest Rate Determination Date, the
Administrative Agent shall determine (which determination shall, absent
manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding upon all parties) the interest
rate that shall apply to the LIBOR Rate Loans for which an interest rate is
then being determined for the applicable Interest Period and shall promptly
give notice thereof (in writing or by telephone confirmed in writing) to the
applicable Credit Party and each Lender.

 31

B.                                    Interest Periods.  The applicable interest period (each an “Interest Period”) of each Borrowing of
LIBOR Rate Loans shall be a one (1), two (2), three (3) or six (6) month
period, as selected by the applicable Credit Party in the applicable Notice of
Borrowing or Conversion/Continuation Notice, initially commencing on the date
of the Loan or any Conversion/Continuation Date, as the case may be; provided
that

(i)                                     in
the case of immediately successive Interest Periods applicable to LIBOR Rate
Loans, each successive Interest Period shall commence on the day on which the
immediately preceding Interest Period expires;

(ii)                                  if
an Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day that is not a Business Day,
such Interest Period shall expire on the next succeeding Business Day; provided
that, if any Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day that is not a
Business Day but is a day of the month after which no further Business Day
occurs in such month, such Interest Period shall expire on the immediately
preceding Business Day;

(iii)                               any
Interest Period that begins on the last Business Day of a calendar month (or on
a day for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar month
at the end of such Interest Period) shall, subject to clause (iv) of this
Section 2.5B, end on the last Business Day of a calendar month;

(iv)                              no
Interest Period shall extend beyond the latest Maturity Date;

(v)                                 no
more than ten (10) Interest Periods shall be outstanding at any time; and

(vi)                              if
the applicable Credit Party fails to specify an Interest Period for any
Borrowing of LIBOR Rate Loans in the applicable Notice of Borrowing or
Conversion/Continuation Notice, such Credit Party shall be deemed to have
selected an Interest Period of one (1) month.

C.                                    Interest Payments. On each Interest Payment Date for a
Borrowing, the applicable Credit Party shall pay an amount equal to the
aggregate amount of interest that has accrued on such Borrowing since the
Effective Date or the last Interest Payment Date for such Borrowing, as applicable.  In addition, interest on each Loan shall be
payable upon any prepayment of such Loan (to the extent accrued on the amount
being prepaid) and at maturity.

D.                                    Default Rate.  Upon the occurrence and during the
continuation of any Event of Default, (i) the Credit Parties shall no longer
have the option to request LIBOR Rate Loans, (ii) each LIBOR Rate Loan
denominated in Dollars shall convert to a Base Rate Loan at the end of the
Interest Period then in effect for such LIBOR Rate Loan, (iii) upon request of
the Requisite Lenders, the outstanding principal amounts of all LIBOR Rate
Loans shall bear interest (including post-petition interest in any case or
proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code) at a rate per annum equal to two percent
(2%) plus the rate then applicable to LIBOR Rate Loans until the end of the
applicable Interest Period and thereafter at a rate equal to two percent (2%)
plus the rate then applicable to Base Rate Loans, and (iv) upon request of the
Requisite Lenders, all outstanding Base Rate Loans and, to the extent permitted
by applicable law, other Obligations arising hereunder or under any other Loan
Document shall bear interest (including post-petition

 32
 

interest in
any case or proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code) at a rate per annum equal to
two percent (2%) plus the rate then applicable to such Base Rate Loans or such
other Obligations arising hereunder or under any other Loan Document.  Payment or acceptance of the increased rates
of interest provided for in this Section 2.5D is not a permitted alternative to
timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or
otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of Agents or Lenders.

E.                                      Computation of
Interest.

(i)                                     Interest
payable pursuant to Section 2.5A shall be computed (i) in the case of Base Rate
Loans on the basis of a 365 day or 366 day year, as the case may be, and (ii)
in the case of LIBOR Rate Loans, on the basis of a 360 day year, in each case
for the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which it
accrues.  In computing interest on any
Loan, the date of the making of such Loan or the first day of an Interest
Period applicable to such Loan or, with respect to a Base Rate Loan being
converted from a LIBOR Rate Loan, the date of conversion of such LIBOR Rate
Loan to such Base Rate Loan, as the case may be, shall be included, and the
date of payment of such Loan or the expiration date of an Interest Period
applicable to such Loan or, with respect to a Base Rate Loan being converted to
a LIBOR Rate Loan, the date of conversion of such Base Rate Loan to such LIBOR
Rate Loan, as the case may be, shall be excluded; provided, if a Loan is
repaid on the same day on which it is made, one day’s interest shall be paid on
that Loan.

(ii)                                  For
purposes of disclosure pursuant to the Interest Act (Canada), R.S. 1985, c
I-15, the annual rates of interest or fees to which the rates of interest or
fees provided in this Agreement and each Note (and stated herein or therein as
applicable to be computed on the basis of a 365-day year or any other period of
time less than a calendar year) are equivalent, and are the rates so determined
multiplied by the actual number of days in the applicable calendar year and
divided by 365 or such other period of time.

F.                                      Conversion/Continuation.

(i)                                     Subject
to Section 2.9 and so long as no Potential Event of Default or Event of Default
shall have occurred and then be continuing, each Credit Party shall have the
option:

(a)                                  to
convert at any time all or any part of any Borrowing of Dollar-Denominated
Loans in an aggregate amount of $5,000,000 or a higher integral multiple of
$1,000,000 from one Type of Loan to another Type of Loan; provided if
any LIBOR Rate Loan is converted on a day other than the last day of an
Interest Period therefor, the applicable Credit Party shall pay all amounts due
under Section 2.8 in connection with such conversion; or

(b)                                 upon
the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to any Borrowing LIBOR Rate
Loans, to continue all or any portion of such Loans in a minimum amount of
$5,000,000 or a higher integral multiple of 1,000,000 units of the applicable
currency as LIBOR Rate Loans.

(ii)                                  The
applicable Credit Party shall deliver a Conversion/Continuation Notice to the
Administrative Agent no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) at least one

 33
 

Business Day
in advance of the proposed conversion date (in the case of a conversion to Base
Rate Loans) and at least three Business Days in advance of the proposed
Conversion/Continuation Date (in the case of a conversion to, or a continuation
of, LIBOR Rate Loans).  Except as
otherwise provided herein, a Conversion/Continuation Notice for conversion to,
or continuation of, LIBOR Rate Loans (or telephonic notice in lieu thereof)
shall be irrevocable on and after the related Interest Rate Determination Date,
and the applicable Credit Party shall be bound to effect a conversion or
continuation in accordance therewith.

G.                                    Letter of Credit
Drawings.  The Borrower agrees to pay
to the Issuing Bank, with respect to drawings honored under any Letter of
Credit, interest on the amount paid by the Issuing Bank in respect of each such
honored drawing from the date such drawing is honored to but excluding the date
such amount is reimbursed by or on behalf of the Borrower at a rate equal to
(i) for the period from the date such drawing is honored to, but excluding, the
applicable Reimbursement Date, the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin, and
(ii) thereafter, the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin plus 2%.

H.                                    Computation of Interest
on Reimbursement Obligations. 
Interest payable pursuant to Section 2.5G shall be computed on the basis
of a 365/366 day year for the actual number of days elapsed in the period
during which it accrues, and shall be payable on demand or, if no demand is
made, on the date on which the related drawing under a Letter of Credit is
reimbursed in full.  Promptly upon
receipt by the Issuing Bank of any payment of interest pursuant to Section
2.5G, the Issuing Bank shall distribute to each Lender, out of the interest
received by the Issuing Bank in respect of the period from the date such
drawing is honored to, but excluding, the date on which the Issuing Bank is
reimbursed for the amount of such drawing (including any such reimbursement out
of the proceeds of any Loans), the amount that such Lender would have been
entitled to receive in respect of the letter of credit fee that would have been
payable in respect of such Letter of Credit for such period if no drawing had
been honored under such Letter of Credit. 
In the event the Issuing Bank shall have been reimbursed by the Lenders
for all or any portion of such honored drawing, the Issuing Bank shall
distribute to each Lender which has paid all amounts payable by it under
Section 2.2E with respect to such honored drawing such Lender’s Pro Rata Share
of any interest received by the Issuing Bank in respect of that portion of such
honored drawing so reimbursed by the Lenders for the period from the date on
which the Issuing Bank was so reimbursed by the Lenders to but excluding the
date on which such portion of such honored drawing is reimbursed by the
Borrower.

I.                                         Additional
Interest on LIBOR Rate Loans.  Each
Credit Party shall pay to each Lender, so long as and to the extent such Lender
shall be required under regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal
Reserve System to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets
consisting of or including “Eurocurrency liabilities” (as such term is defined
in Regulation D), additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each
LIBOR Rate Loan of such Lender, from the date of such Loan until such principal
amount is paid in full, at an interest rate per annum equal at all times to the
remainder obtained by subtracting (a) the LIBOR rate for the applicable
Interest Period for such Loan from (b) the rate obtained by dividing such LIBOR
rate by a percentage equal to 100% minus the Applicable Reserve Requirement
(expressed as a percentage) of such Lender for such Interest Period, payable on
each date on which interest is payable on such Loan.  Such Lender shall as soon as practicable
provide notice to the

 34
 

Administrative
Agent and the Borrower of any such additional interest arising in connection
with such Loan, which notice shall be conclusive and binding, absent
demonstrable error.

2.6                               Fees.

All fees referred to in this Section 2.6 shall be paid to the
Administrative Agent at its Funding and Payment Office and upon receipt, the
Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to each Lender its Pro Rata
Share thereof.

(i)                                     The
Borrower agrees to pay to each Lender having Credit Exposure the fees listed
below.

(a)                                  Facility
Fee:  From the Effective Date until
the Maturity Date, the Borrower shall pay a facility fee (the “Facility Fee”) to each Lender, ratably in accordance
with such Lender’s then current Commitment, determined by reference to the
pricing grid set forth in the definition of Applicable Margin.  The Facility Fee shall be paid quarterly in
arrears and on the Maturity Date;

(b)                                 Utilization
Fee:  From the Effective Date until
the Maturity Date, for each day on which the outstanding principal amount of
the Loans exceeds 50% of the total Commitments, the Borrower shall pay a
utilization fee (the “Utilization Fee”)
to each Lender, ratably in accordance with such Lender’s outstanding Loans
during the applicable period, determined by reference to the pricing grid set
forth in the definition of Applicable Margin. 
The Utilization Fee will be paid quarterly in arrears and on the
Maturity Date; and

(c)                                  Letter
of Credit Fee:  From the Effective
Date until the Maturity Date, the Borrower shall pay letter of credit fees to
each Lender, ratably in accordance with its then current Commitment, equal to
(1) the Applicable Margin for LIBOR Rate Loans, times (2) the average aggregate
daily maximum amount available to be drawn under all Letters of Credit
(regardless of whether any conditions for drawing could then be met and
determined as of the close of business on any date of determination).

(ii)                                  The
Borrower agrees to pay directly to the Issuing Bank, for its own account, the
following fees:

(a)                                  a
fronting fee equal to 0.125% per annum (or such other rate as may be agreed to
by the Borrower and the Issuing Bank), times the average aggregate daily
maximum amount available to be drawn under all Letters of Credit (determined as
of the close of business on any date of determination); and

(b)                                 such
documentary and processing charges for any issuance, amendment, transfer or
payment of a Letter of Credit as are in accordance with the Issuing Bank’s
standard schedule for such charges and as in effect at the time of such
issuance, amendment, transfer or payment, as the case may be.

(iii)                               All
fees referred to in Section 2.6(i) and 2.6(ii)(a) shall be calculated on the
basis of a 360 day year and the actual number of days elapsed and shall be
payable quarterly in arrears on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31
of each year during the

 35
 

Commitment
Period, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date,
and on the Maturity Date.

(iv)                              In
addition to any of the foregoing fees, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Lead
Arrangers and the Agents such other fees in the amounts and at the times
separately agreed upon in the Fee Letter.

2.7                               Provisions
Regarding Payments.

A.                                    Voluntary
Prepayments.

(i)                                     Any
time and from time to time:

(a)                                  the
Borrower may prepay any Base Rate Loans on any Business Day in whole or in
part, in an aggregate principal amount of $5,000,000 or a higher integral
multiple of $1,000,000; provided, that if Loans are made pursuant to
Section 2.2D, then during the thirty (30) days after the making of such Loans,
the Borrower may make one prepayment of Base Rate Loans in any amount so long
as after giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount of all Base Rate
Loans is an integral multiple of $1,000,000; and

(b)                                 the
Borrower may prepay any Borrowing of LIBOR Rate Loans on any Business Day in
whole or in part in an aggregate principal Dollar Amount of $5,000,000 or a
higher integral multiple of 1,000,000 units of the applicable currency.

(ii)                                  All
prepayments shall be made upon prior written or telephonic notice received by
the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time):

(a)                                  In the case of Base Rate Loans, on
the date of such prepayment; and

(b)                                 In the case of LIBOR Rate Loans, two
(2) Business Days’ prior to the date of such prepayment;

and, if such notice is given by telephone, such notice
shall be promptly confirmed in writing to the Administrative Agent (and the
Administrative Agent will promptly transmit such telephonic or original notice
for the Loans by facsimile or telephone to each Lender).  Upon the giving of any such notice, the
principal amount of the Loans specified in such notice shall become due and
payable on the prepayment date specified therein.

B.                                    Voluntary
Commitment Reductions.

(i)                                     The
Credit Parties may, upon not less than three (3) Business Days’ prior written
or telephonic notice confirmed in writing to the Administrative Agent (which
original written or telephonic notice the Administrative Agent will promptly
transmit by facsimile or telephone to each applicable Lender), at any time and
from time to time terminate in whole or permanently reduce in part, without
premium or penalty, the Commitments in an amount up to the amount by which the
Commitments exceed the Total Utilization of Commitments at the time

 36
 

of such
proposed termination or reduction; provided any such partial reduction
of the Commitments shall be in the amount of $5,000,000 or a higher integral
multiple of $1,000,000.

(ii)                                  The
Credit Parties’ notice to the Administrative Agent shall designate the date
(which shall be a Business Day) of such termination or reduction and the amount
of any partial reduction, and such termination or reduction of the Commitments
shall be effective on the date specified in the Borrower’s notice and shall
reduce the Commitment of each Lender proportionately to its Pro Rata Share
thereof.

C.                                    Mandatory
Prepayments.  Subject to Section
2.10B, the Credit Parties shall from time to time prepay the Loans to the
extent necessary so that the Total Utilization of Commitments shall not at any
time exceed the Commitments then in effect.

D.                                    Application of Prepayments/Reductions.  Unless otherwise
specified by the applicable Credit Party in a notice of prepayment,

(a) any amount to be applied
pursuant to Section 2.7A or C shall be applied as follows:

first, to prepay outstanding reimbursement obligations
with respect to Letters of Credit;

second, to prepay Loans to the full extent thereof; and

third, to cash collateralize Letters of Credit; and

(b) considering each Type of Loan
being prepaid separately, any prepayment thereof shall be applied first to Base
Rate Loans to the full extent thereof before application to LIBOR Rate Loans, in
each case in a manner which minimizes the amount of any payments required to be
made by the Credit Parties pursuant to Section 2.9C.

E.                                      General
Provisions Regarding Payments.

(i)                                     Manner
and Time of Payment.  All payments by
the Credit Parties of principal, interest, fees and other Obligations shall be
made in Dollars or, with respect to Alternative Currency Loans, in the relevant
Alternative Currency in same day funds, without defense, set-off or
counterclaim, free of any restriction or condition, and delivered to the
Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date
due at the Funding and Payment Office for the account of the Lenders; funds
received by the Administrative Agent after that time on such due date shall be
deemed to have been paid by the applicable Credit Party on the next succeeding
Business Day.

(ii)                                  Payments
on Business Days.  Subject to the
provisions of Section 2.5B with respect to Interest Periods, whenever any
payment to be made hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a
Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day
and such extension of time shall be included in the computation of the payment
of interest hereunder.

 37
 

(iii)                               Application
of Payments to Principal and Interest. 
All payments in respect of the principal amount of the Loans shall
include payment of accrued interest on the principal amount being repaid or
prepaid, and all such payments shall be applied to the payment of interest
before application to principal.

(iv)                              Distribution
to Lenders.  The Administrative Agent
shall promptly distribute to each Lender at such address as such Lender shall
indicate in writing, such Lender’s applicable Pro Rata Share of all payments
and prepayments of principal and interest due hereunder, together with all
other amounts due thereto, including all fees payable with respect thereto, to
the extent received by Administrative Agent.

(v)                                 Withdrawal
of Notice.  Notwithstanding the
foregoing provisions hereof, if any Conversion/Continuation Notice is withdrawn
as to any Affected Lender or if any Affected Lender makes Base Rate Loans in
lieu of its Pro Rata Share of any LIBOR Rate Loans, the Administrative Agent
shall give effect thereto in apportioning payments received thereafter.

(vi)                              Authorization
to Charge Accounts.  Each Credit
Party hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to charge such Credit Party’s
accounts with the Administrative Agent in order to cause timely payment to be
made to the Administrative Agent of all principal, interest, fees and expenses
due hereunder (subject to sufficient funds being available in its accounts for
that purpose).

(vii)                           Non-Conforming
Payments.  The Administrative Agent
shall deem any payment by or on behalf of any Credit Party hereunder that is
not made in same day funds prior to 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) to be a
non-conforming payment.  Any such payment
shall not be deemed to have been received by the Administrative Agent until the
later of (i) the time such funds become available funds, and (ii) the
applicable next Business Day.  The
Administrative Agent shall give prompt telephonic notice to the applicable
Credit Party and each applicable Lender (confirmed in writing) if any payment
is non-conforming.  Any non-conforming
payment may constitute or become a Potential Event of Default or Event of
Default in accordance with the terms of Section 8.1.  Interest shall continue to accrue on any
principal as to which a non-conforming payment is made until such funds become
available funds (but in no event less than the period from the date of such
payment to the next succeeding applicable Business Day) at the rate determined
pursuant to Section 2.5D from the date such amount was due and payable until
the date such amount is paid in full.

2.8                               Increased
Costs; Taxes.

A.                                    Compensation for
Increased Costs and Taxes.  Subject
to the provisions of Section 2.8B (which shall be controlling with respect to
the matters covered thereby), in the event that any Lender shall determine
(which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and
binding upon all parties hereto) that any law, treaty or governmental rule,
regulation or order, or any change therein or in the interpretation,
administration or application thereof (including the introduction of any new
law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order), or any determination of
a court or Governmental Authority, in each case that becomes effective after
the date hereof, or compliance by such Lender with any guideline, request or

 38
 

directive
issued or made after the date hereof by any central bank or other governmental
or quasi-governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law):

(i)                                     subjects
such Lender (or its applicable lending office) to any additional Tax (other
than any Tax on the overall net income of such Lender) with respect to this
Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or any of its obligations
hereunder or thereunder or any payments to such Lender (or its applicable
lending office) of principal, interest, fees or any other amount payable
hereunder;

(ii)                                  imposes,
modifies or holds applicable any reserve (including any marginal, emergency,
supplemental, special or other reserve), special deposit, compulsory loan,
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance or similar requirement against
assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, or
advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of
funds by, any office of such Lender (other than any such reserve or other
requirements with respect to LIBOR Rate Loans that are reflected in the
definition of LIBOR); or

(iii)                               imposes
any other condition (other than with respect to a Tax matter) on or affecting
such Lender (or its applicable lending office) or its obligations hereunder or
the London interbank market;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such
Lender of agreeing to make, making or maintaining Loans hereunder or to reduce
any amount received or receivable by such Lender (or its applicable lending
office) with respect thereto; then, in any such case, the Credit Parties shall
promptly pay to such Lender, upon receipt of the statement referred to in the
next sentence, such additional amount or amounts (in the form of an increased rate
of, or a different method of calculating, interest or otherwise as such Lender
in its sole discretion shall determine) as may be necessary to compensate such
Lender for any such increased cost or reduction in amounts received or
receivable hereunder.  Such Lender shall
deliver to the Credit Parties (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) a
written statement, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for, and a
calculation in reasonable detail of, the additional amounts owed to such Lender
under this Section 2.8A, which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon
all parties hereto absent manifest error.

B.                                    Withholding of
Taxes.

(i)                                     Payments
to Be Free and Clear.  All sums
payable by any Credit Party under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents
shall (except to the extent required by law) be paid free and clear of, and
without any deduction or withholding on account of, any Tax (other than a Tax
on the overall net income of any Lender) imposed, levied, collected, withheld
or assessed by or within the United States of America or any political
subdivision in or of the United States of America or any other jurisdiction
from or to which a payment is made by or on behalf of any Credit Party or by
any federation or organization of which the United States of America or any
such jurisdiction is a member at the time of payment.

(ii)                                  Grossing-up
of Payments.  If any Credit Party or
any other Person is required by law to make any deduction or withholding on
account of any such Tax from any sum

 39
 

paid or payable
by such Credit Party to the Administrative Agent or any Lender under any of the
Loan Documents:

(a)                                  such
Credit Party shall notify the Administrative Agent of any such requirement or
any change in any such requirement as soon as such Credit Party becomes aware
of it;

(b)                                 such
Credit Party shall pay any such Tax before the date on which penalties attach
thereto, such payment to be made (if the liability to pay is imposed on such
Credit Party) for its own account or (if that liability is imposed on the Administrative
Agent or such Lender, as the case may be) on behalf of and in the name of the
Administrative Agent or such Lender;

(c)                                  the
sum payable by such Credit Party in respect of which the relevant deduction,
withholding or payment is required shall be increased to the extent necessary
to ensure that, after the making of that deduction, withholding or payment, the
Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, receives on the due
date and retains a net sum equal to what it would have received and retained
had no such deduction, withholding or payment been required or made; and

(d)                                 within
thirty (30) days after paying any sum from which it is required by law to make
any deduction or withholding, and within thirty (30) days after the due date of
payment of any Tax which it is required by clause (b) above to pay, such Credit
Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent evidence reasonably
satisfactory to the other affected parties of such deduction, withholding or
payment and of the remittance thereof to the relevant taxing or other
authority.

(iii)                               Evidence
of Exemption from U.S. Withholding Tax.

(a)                                  Each
Lender that is not a United States Person (as such term is defined in Section
7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code) for U.S. federal income tax purposes
(a “Non-US Lender”) shall deliver
to the Administrative Agent for transmission to the Credit Parties, on or prior
to the Effective Date (in the case of each Lender listed on the signature pages
hereof on the Effective Date) or on or prior to the date of the Assumption
Agreement or Assignment Agreement, as applicable, pursuant to which it becomes
a Lender (in the case of each other Lender), and at such other times as may be
necessary in the determination of the Credit Parties or Administrative Agent
(each in the reasonable exercise of its discretion), (x) two original copies of
Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI (or any successor forms),
properly completed and duly executed by such Lender, and such other
documentation required under the Internal Revenue Code or reasonably requested
by the Credit Parties to establish that such Lender is not subject to deduction
or withholding of United States federal income tax with respect to any payments
to such Lender of principal, interest, fees or other amounts payable under any
of the Loan Documents.

(b)                                 Each
Lender required to deliver any forms, certificates or other evidence with
respect to United States federal income tax withholding matters pursuant to
Section 2.8B(iii)(a) hereby agrees, from time to time after the initial
delivery by such Lender of

 40
 

such forms,
certificates or other evidence, whenever a lapse in time or change in
circumstances renders such forms, certificates or other evidence obsolete or
inaccurate in any material respect, that such Lender shall promptly (1) deliver
to Administrative Agent for transmission to the Borrower two new original
copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI, or a Certificate re
Non-Bank Status and two (2) original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form
W-8BEN (or any successor form), as the case may be, properly completed and duly
executed by such Lender, and such other documentation required under the
Internal Revenue Code and reasonably requested by the Credit Parties to confirm
or establish that such Lender is not subject to deduction or withholding of
United States federal income tax with respect to payments to such Lender under
the Loan Documents or (2) notify Administrative Agent and the Borrower of its
inability to deliver any such forms, certificates or other evidence.

(c)                                  The
Credit Parties shall not be required to pay any additional amount to any Non-US
Lender under clause (c) of Section 2.8B(ii) if such Lender shall have failed to
satisfy the requirements of clause (a) or (b)(1) of this Section 2.8B(iii); provided
that if such Lender shall have satisfied the requirements of Section
2.8B(iii)(a) on the Effective Date or on the date of the Assumption Agreement
or Assignment Agreement, as applicable, pursuant to which it became a Lender,
as applicable, nothing in this Section 2.8B(iii)(c) shall relieve the Credit
Parties of its obligation to pay any additional amounts pursuant to clause (c)
of Section 2.8B(ii) in the event that, as a result of any change in any
applicable law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order, or any change
in the interpretation, administration or application thereof, such Lender is no
longer properly entitled to deliver forms, certificates or other evidence at a
subsequent date establishing the fact that such Lender is not subject to
withholding as described herein.

(iv)                              If a
payment is made by a Credit Party under the foregoing provisions of this
Section 2.8(B) for the account of any Lender and such Lender, in its sole
opinion, determines that it has irrevocably received or been granted a credit
against, or relief or remission from, or repayment or refund of, any tax paid
or payable by it in respect of or calculated with reference to the deduction or
withholding giving rise to such additional payment, such Lender shall, to the
extent that it determines that it can do so without prejudice to the retention
of the amount of such credit, relief, remission or repayment, pay to such
Credit Party such amount as such Lender shall, in its sole opinion, have determined
is attributable to such deduction or withholding and will leave such Lender
(after such payment) in no worse position than it would have been had such
Credit Party not been required to make such deduction or withholding.  Nothing contained herein shall (i) interfere
with the right of a Lender to arrange its tax affairs in whatever manner it
thinks fit, (ii) oblige any Lender to disclose any information relating to its
tax affairs or any computations in respect thereof or (iii) require any Lender
to take or refrain from taking any action that would prejudice its ability to
benefit from any other credit, relief, remission, repayment or refund to which
it may be entitled.

(v)                                 Evidence
of Exemption from Applicable Withholding Tax.  Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption
from or reduction of withholding tax imposed by the jurisdiction in which a
Subsidiary Borrower is organized (the “Relevant Jurisdiction”) with respect to
payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the relevant Subsidiary Borrower
(with a copy to the Administrative Agent) within 15 Business Days following
receipt of the written notice referred to below, such properly completed and
executed documentation as is reasonably

 41
 

requested by
such Subsidiary Borrower or the Administrative Agent in order to permit such
payments to be made with the benefit of such exemption or reduction (and shall
make application to the relevant Governmental Authority for exemption or
reduced rates if it is the party required by law to do so), provided
that such Lender has received written notice from such Subsidiary Borrower or
the Administrative Agent identifying the requirements for such exemption or
reduction, supplying all applicable documentation and specifying the time
period within which documentation is to be provided under this Section 2.8B(v)
(or such application is to be made). 
Without limiting the Lenders’ obligations under the preceding sentence,
each Lender agrees that it will, without material cost or other material
disadvantage (as determined in such Lender’s good faith judgment), cooperate
with such Subsidiary Borrower to minimize the applicable withholding tax
burdens in the Relevant Jurisdiction.  If
any Lender becomes subject to any Tax because it fails to comply with this
Section 2.8B(v), each Subsidiary Borrower shall take such steps as such Lender
shall reasonably request to assist such Lender to recover such Tax.  The Administrative Agent agrees that it will
provide administrative and ministerial assistance to each relevant Subsidiary
Borrower with respect to any payments made by such Subsidiary Borrower to the
Lenders, and the calculation, reporting, withholding and remitting of any Taxes
imposed by Canada or Ireland to the appropriate Governmental Authority.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) the
Subsidiary Borrowers shall retain primary responsibility for ascertaining the
requirements of Applicable Law and providing to the Lenders the written notice
described in the first sentence of this Section 2.8B(v), and (b) no failure by
the Administrative Agent to meet any obligations under this Section 2.8B(v)
shall operate to excuse any Subsidiary Borrower from its obligations to the
Lenders under this Section 2.8B(v).

C.                                    Capital Adequacy
Adjustment.  In the event that any
Lender shall have determined that the adoption, effectiveness, phase-in or
applicability after the Effective Date of any law, rule or regulation (or any
provision thereof) regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein after the
Effective Date or in the interpretation or administration thereof by any
Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the
interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by such Lender (or its
applicable lending office) with any guideline, request or directive regarding
capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such
Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency issued after the
Effective Date, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on
the capital of such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender as a
consequence of, or with reference to, such Lender’s Loans or Commitment, or
participations therein or other obligations hereunder with respect to the Loans
to a level below that which such Lender or such controlling corporation could
have achieved but for such adoption, effectiveness, phase-in, applicability,
change or compliance (taking into consideration the policies of such Lender or
such controlling corporation with regard to capital adequacy), then from time
to time, the Credit Parties shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or
amounts as will compensate such Lender or such controlling corporation on an
after-tax basis for such reduction.  Such
Lender shall deliver to the Credit Parties (with a copy to the Administrative
Agent) a written statement, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for,
and calculation in reasonable detail of, the additional amounts owed to the
Lender under this Section 2.8C, which statement shall be conclusive and binding
upon all parties hereto absent manifest error.

 42
 

2.9                               Special
Provisions Governing LIBOR Rate Loans.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary,
the following provisions shall govern with respect to LIBOR Rate Loans as to
the matters covered:

A.                                    Inability to
Determine Applicable Interest Rate. 
In the event that the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which
determination shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties
hereto), on any Interest Rate Determination Date with respect to any Borrowing
of LIBOR Rate Loans, that by reason of circumstances affecting the interbank
LIBOR market adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the interest
rate applicable to such Loans on the basis provided for in the definition of
LIBOR Rate, the Administrative Agent shall on such date give notice (by
facsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Credit Parties and each
Lender of such determination, whereupon (i) no Loans may be made as, or
converted to, LIBOR Rate Loans until such time as the Administrative Agent
notifies the Credit Parties and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise
to such notice no longer exist, and (ii) any Notice of Borrowing or
Conversion/Continuation Notice given by any Credit Party with respect to the
Loans in respect of which such determination was made shall be deemed to be
rescinded by such Credit Party.

B.                                    Illegality or
Impracticability of LIBOR Rate Loans. 
In the event that on any date any Lender shall have determined (which determination
shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto but shall be
made only after consultation with Credit Parties and the Administrative Agent)
that the making, maintaining or continuation of its LIBOR Rate Loans in Dollars
or any Alternative Currency (i) has become unlawful as a result of compliance
by such Lender in good faith with any law, treaty, governmental rule,
regulation, guideline or order (or would conflict with any such treaty,
governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order not having the force of law
even though the failure to comply therewith would not be unlawful) or (ii) has
become impracticable, or would cause such Lender material hardship, as a result
of contingencies occurring after the date of this Agreement which materially
and adversely affect the interbank LIBOR market or the position of such Lender
in that market, then, and in any such event, such Lender shall be an “Affected Lender” and it shall on that day
give notice (by facsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Credit
Parties and the Administrative Agent of such determination (which notice the
Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each other Lender).  Thereafter (a) (i) if such LIBOR Rate
Loan is denominated in Dollars, it shall be Converted into a Base Rate Loan and
(ii) if such LIBOR Rate Loan is denominated in any Alternative Currency,
it shall be exchanged into an Equivalent amount of Dollars and be Converted
into a Base Rate Loan and (b) the obligation of the Lenders to make LIBOR
Rate Loans in the affected currency or to Convert Loans into LIBOR Rate Loans
shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and
the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist.

C.                                    Compensation For
Breakage.  The Credit Parties shall
compensate each Lender upon written request by such Lender (which request shall
set forth the basis for requesting such amounts and a calculation thereof in
reasonable detail) for all reasonable losses, expenses and liabilities
(including any interest paid by such Lender to lenders of funds borrowed by it
to make or carry its LIBOR Rate Loans and any loss, expense or liability
sustained by such Lender in connection with the liquidation or re-employment of
such funds, but excluding lost profits)

 43
 

which that
Lender may sustain:  (i) if for any
reason (other than a default by such Lender) a LIBOR Rate Loan is not made on a
date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or a telephonic request for
borrowing, or a conversion to or continuation of any LIBOR Rate Loan does not
occur on a date specified therefor in a Conversion/Continuation Notice or a
telephonic request for conversion or continuation, (ii) if any prepayment or
other principal payment of, or any conversion of, any of its LIBOR Rate Loans
occurs on a date other than the last day of an Interest Period applicable to
such LIBOR Rate Loan or (iii) if any prepayment of any LIBOR Rate Loan made by
such Lender is not made on any date specified in a notice of prepayment given
by the Borrower.

D.                                    Booking of LIBOR
Rate Loans.  Any Lender may make,
carry or transfer LIBOR Rate Loans at, to, or for the account of any of its
branch offices or the office of an Affiliate of that Lender.

E.                                      Assumptions
Concerning Funding of LIBOR Rate Loans. 
Calculation of all amounts payable to a Lender under this Section 2.9
and under Section 2.8A shall be made as though that Lender had actually funded
each of its relevant LIBOR Rate Loans through the purchase of a LIBOR deposit
bearing interest at the rate obtained pursuant to the definition of LIBOR in an
amount equal to the amount of such LIBOR Rate Loan and having a maturity
comparable to the relevant Interest Period and through the transfer of such
LIBOR deposit from an offshore office of that Lender to a domestic office of
that Lender in the United States of America; provided, however, that each
Lender may fund each of its LIBOR Rate Loans in any manner it sees fit and the
foregoing assumptions shall be utilized only for the purposes of calculating
amounts payable under this Section 2.9 and under Section 2.8A and 2.8C.

2.10                        Matters
Relating to Currency Exchange Rates and Conversion of Amounts to Alternative
Currencies.

A.                                    Spot Rate
Calculation.  The Administrative
Agent shall determine the Dollar Amount of each Alternative Currency Loan as of
(x) the first day of each Interest Period applicable thereto and (y) the last
Business Day of each calendar month, and such calculation shall remain in
effect for purposes of this Agreement until the next date on which an event
described in this Section 2.10A occurs and a recalculation is made.  The Administrative Agent shall promptly
notify the applicable Credit Party and the Lenders of each Dollar Amount so
determined by it.  Each such
determination shall be based on the Spot Rate (x) on the date of the related
Notice of Borrowing for purposes of the initial such determination for any
Alternative Currency Loan and (y) on the fourth Business Day prior to the date
as of which such Dollar Amount is to be determined, for purposes of any
subsequent determination.

B.                                    Prepayment.  If after giving effect to any such
determination of a Dollar Amount, the Total Utilization of Commitments exceeds
105% of the Commitments or the aggregate Dollar Amount of Alternative Currency
Loans exceeds 105% of the Alternative Currency Sublimit, the Credit Parties
shall, within five Business Days of receipt of notice thereof from the
Administrative Agent setting forth such calculation in reasonable detail,
prepay outstanding Loans (as selected by the Credit Parties and notified to the
Lenders through the Administrative Agent not less than three Business Days
prior to the date of prepayment) or take other action (including, in the Credit
Parties’ discretion, Dollar cash collateralization of Letters of

 44
 

Credit
pursuant to documentation reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent
in amounts from time to time equal to such excess) to the extent necessary to
eliminate any such excess.

C.                                    Conversion of
Amounts to Applicable Currencies.  To
the extent funds received by the Administrative Agent (or debited from any
Person’s account with the Administrative Agent) must be converted into Dollars
or an Alternative Currency for any payment required hereunder, the
Administrative Agent shall effect such conversion on the applicable payment
date on the basis of the Spot Rate then in effect.

2.11                        Defaulting
Lenders.

Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event
that any Lender defaults (a “Defaulting Lender”)
in its obligation to fund (a “Funding Default”)
any Loan or its portion of any unreimbursed payment under Section 2.2D (in each
case, a “Defaulted Loan”), then (a) during any
Default Period with respect to such Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender
shall be deemed not to be a “Lender” for purposes of voting on any matters
(including the granting of any consents or waivers) with respect to any of the
Loan Documents; (b) to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, until such time
as the Default Excess with respect to such Defaulting Lender shall have been
reduced to zero, (i) any voluntary prepayment of the Loans shall, if the
applicable Credit Party so directs at the time of making such voluntary
prepayment, be applied to the Loans of other Lenders as if such Defaulting
Lender had no Loans outstanding and the Credit Exposure of such Defaulting
Lender were zero, and (ii) any mandatory prepayment of the Loans shall, if the
applicable Credit Party so directs at the time of making such mandatory
prepayment, be applied to the Loans of other Lenders (but not to the Loans of
such Defaulting Lender) as if such Defaulting Lender had funded all Defaulted
Loans of such Defaulting Lender, it being understood and agreed that the
applicable Credit Party shall be entitled to retain any portion of any
mandatory prepayment of the Loans that is not paid to such Defaulting Lender
solely as a result of the operation of the provisions of this clause (b); (c)
such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment and outstanding Loans and such Defaulting Lender’s
Pro Rata Share of the Letter of Credit Usage shall be excluded for purposes of
calculating the Facility Fee payable to Lenders in respect of any day during
any Default Period with respect to such Defaulting Lender, and such Defaulting
Lender shall not be entitled to receive any Facility Fee pursuant to Section
2.6 with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment in respect of any
Default Period with respect to such Defaulting Lender; and (d) the Total
Utilization of Commitments as at any date of determination shall be calculated
as if such Defaulting Lender had funded all Defaulted Loans of such Defaulting
Lender.  No Commitment of any Lender
shall be increased or otherwise affected, and, except as otherwise expressly
provided in this Section 2.11, performance by the Credit Parties of their
Obligations shall not be excused or otherwise modified as a result of any
Funding Default or the operation of this Section 2.11.  The rights and remedies against a Defaulting
Lender under this Section 2.11 are in addition to other rights and remedies
which the Credit Parties may have against such Defaulting Lender with respect
to any Funding Default and which the Administrative Agent or any Lender may
have against such Defaulting Lender with respect to any Funding Default.

 45
 

2.12                        Removal
or Replacement of a Lender.

Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event
that any Lender shall give notice to the Credit Parties that such Lender is an
Affected Lender or that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under
Section 2.8 or 2.9, if the circumstances which have caused such Lender to be an
Affected Lender or which entitle such Lender to receive such payments shall
remain in effect, and such Lender shall fail to withdraw such notice within five
(5) Business Days after receipt by such Lender of a written request for such
withdrawal from a Credit Party; then, with respect to each such Lender (the “Terminated Lender”), the Credit Parties may, by giving
written notice to the Administrative Agent and any Terminated Lender of its
election to do so, elect to cause such Terminated Lender (and such Terminated
Lender hereby irrevocably agrees) to assign its outstanding Loans in full to
one or more Eligible Assignees (each a “Replacement Lender”)
in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.1 for a purchase price equal to
the outstanding principal amount of the Loans assigned and accrued interest
thereon and accrued and theretofore unpaid fees owing to such Terminated Lender
under Section 2.6 through the date of assignment, to be paid by the Replacement
Lender; provided that concurrently with such assignment, the Credit
Parties shall pay any amounts payable to such Terminated Lender to the date of
such assignment pursuant to Sections 2.8 or 2.9 or otherwise as if it were a
prepayment.  Upon the completion of such
assignment and the prepayment of all amounts owing to any Terminated Lender,
such Terminated Lender shall no longer constitute a “Lender” for purposes
hereof; provided that any rights of such Terminated Lender to
indemnification hereunder shall survive as to such Terminated Lender.

2.13                        Mitigation.

A.                                    Each Lender
agrees that, as promptly as practicable after the officer of such Lender
responsible for administering the Loans of such Lender becomes aware of the
occurrence of an event or the existence of a condition that would cause such
Lender to become an Affected Lender or that would entitle such Lender to
receive payments under Section 2.8 or 2.9, it will, to the extent not
inconsistent with the internal policies of such Lender and any applicable legal
or regulatory restrictions, use reasonable efforts (i) to make, issue, fund or
maintain the Commitment of such Lender or the affected Loans of such Lender
through another lending office of such Lender, or (ii) take such other measures
as such Lender may deem reasonable, if as a result thereof the circumstances
which would cause such Lender to be an Affected Lender would cease to exist or
the additional amounts which would otherwise be required to be paid to such
Lender pursuant to Section 2.8 or 2.9 would be materially reduced and if, as
determined by such Lender in its sole discretion, the making, issuing, funding
or maintaining of such Commitment or Loans through such other lending office or
in accordance with such other measures, as the case may be, would not otherwise
adversely affect such Commitment or Loans or the interests of such Lender; provided
that such Lender will not be obligated to utilize such other lending office
pursuant to this Section 2.13 unless the Credit Parties agree to pay all
incremental expenses incurred by such Lender as a result of utilizing such
other lending office as described in clause (i) above.  A certificate as to the amount of any such
expenses payable by the Credit Parties pursuant to this Section 2.13 (setting
forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such amount and a
calculation thereof in reasonable detail) submitted by such Lender to the
Credit Parties (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) shall be conclusive
absent manifest error.

 

 

 46

B.                                    Notwithstanding the provisions of Section
2.8, if any Lender fails to notify the Borrower of any event or circumstance
which will entitle such Lender to compensation pursuant to Section 2.8 within
365 days after such Lender obtains knowledge of such event or circumstance,
then such Lender shall not be entitled to compensation from the Borrower for
any amount arising prior to the date which is 365 days before the date on which
such Lender notifies the Borrower of such event or circumstance.

2.14                        Increase
in the Aggregate Commitments.

A.                                    The Borrower may, at any time but in any
event not more than twice in any calendar year prior to the Maturity Date
(unless the Administrative Agent otherwise consents), by notice to the
Administrative Agent, request that the aggregate amount of the Commitments be
increased by (i) increasing the amount of the Commitment of any Lender which
has agreed to such increase (any such Lender, an “Increasing Lender”)
and/or (ii) adding one or more Eligible Assignees as parties hereto with
Commitments in an amount agreed to by such respective Eligible Assignees;
provided that (a) the aggregate amount of any such increase (for all Increasing
Lenders and Eligible Assignees on any particular day) shall be $25,000,000 or a
higher integral multiple of $5,000,000, (b) the amount of the Commitment of any
Eligible Assignee that is not already a Lender shall be not less than
$5,000,000, (c) any such increase shall be effective as of a date that is at
least 90 days prior to the scheduled Maturity Date then in effect (the “Increase Date”) as specified in the related notice to the
Administrative Agent; (d) in no event shall the aggregate amount of the
Commitments at any time exceed $500,000,000 and (iv) on the date of any request
by the Borrower for a Commitment Increase and on the related Increase Date, the
conditions set forth in Section 3.3 shall be satisfied.

B.                                    On each Increase Date, each Eligible Assignee
that has agreed to participate in the applicable Commitment Increase (each such
Eligible Assignee and each Eligible Assignee that agrees to an extension of the
Maturity Date in accordance with Section 2.15C, an “Assuming Lender”)
shall become a Lender party to this Agreement as of such Increase Date and the
Commitment of each Increasing Lender shall be increased by the amount agreed
upon by such Lender and the Borrower; provided, however, that the
Administrative Agent shall have received on or before such Increase Date the
following, each dated such date:

(i)                                     (A)
certified copies of resolutions of the Board of Directors of the Borrower or
the Executive Committee of such Board approving the Commitment Increase and the
corresponding modifications to this Agreement and (B) an opinion of counsel for
the Borrower (which may be in-house counsel), in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and its counsel;

(ii)                                  an
assumption agreement from each Assuming Lender, if any, in form and substance
satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (each an “Assumption Agreement”), duly executed by
such Assuming Lender, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower; and

(iii)                               confirmation
from each Increasing Lender of the increase in the amount of its Commitment in
a writing satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

 47
 

On each Increase
Date, upon fulfillment of the conditions set forth in the immediately preceding
sentence, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders (including each
Assuming Lender) and the Borrower, on or before 1:00 P.M. (New York City time),
by facsimile, of the occurrence of the Commitment Increase to be effected on
such Increase Date and shall record in the Register the relevant information
with respect to each Increasing Lender and each Assuming Lender on such date.  Each Increasing Lender and each Assuming
Lender shall, before 2:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the Increase Date, make
available to the Administrative Agent at the Funding and Payment Office, in
same day funds, in the case of such Assuming Lender, an amount equal to such Assuming
Lender’s ratable portion of the Loans then outstanding (calculated based on its
Commitment as a percentage of the aggregate Commitments outstanding after
giving effect to the relevant Commitment Increase) and, in the case of such
Increasing Lender, an amount equal to the excess of (i) such Increasing
Lender’s ratable portion of the Loans then outstanding (calculated based on its
Commitment as a percentage of the aggregate Commitments outstanding after
giving effect to the relevant Commitment Increase) over (ii) such Increasing
Lender’s ratable portion of the Loans then outstanding (calculated based on its
Commitment (without giving effect to the relevant Commitment Increase) as a
percentage of the aggregate Commitments (without giving effect to the relevant
Commitment Increase).  After the
Administrative Agent’s receipt of such funds from each such Increasing Lender
and each such Assuming Lender, the Administrative Agent will promptly
thereafter cause to be distributed like funds to the other Lenders in an amount
to each other Lender such that the aggregate amount of the outstanding Loans
owing to each Lender after giving effect to such distribution equals such
Lender’s ratable portion of the aggregate Loans then outstanding (calculated
based on its Commitment as a percentage of the aggregate Commitments
outstanding after giving effect to the relevant Commitment Increase).

2.15                        Extension
of Maturity Date.

A.                                    At least 45 days but not more than 60 days
prior to the first or second anniversary of the Effective Date (or both), the
Borrower, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, may request an
extension of the Maturity Date in effect at such time by one year from its then
scheduled expiration.  The Administrative
Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of such request, and each Lender shall
in turn, in its sole discretion, not later than 20 days prior to such
anniversary date, notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing
as to whether such Lender will consent to such extension.  If any Lender shall fail to notify the
Administrative Agent and the Borrower in writing of its consent to any such
request for extension of the Maturity Date at least 20 days prior to the
applicable anniversary date, such Lender shall be deemed to be a Non-Consenting
Lender with respect to such request.  The
Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower not later than 15 days prior to
the applicable anniversary date of the decision of the Lenders regarding the
Borrower’s request for an extension of the Maturity Date.

B.                                    If all the Lenders consent in writing to any
such request in accordance with Section 2.15A, the Maturity Date in effect at
such time shall, effective as at the Maturity Date (the “Extension Date”), be extended for one year; provided
that on each Extension Date the conditions set forth in Section 3.3 shall be
satisfied.  If less than all of the
Lenders consent in writing to any such request in accordance with Section
2.15A, the Maturity Date in effect at such time shall, effective as at the
applicable Extension Date and subject to Section 2.15D, be extended as to those
Lenders that so consented (each a “Consenting
Lender”) but shall not be

 48
 

extended
as to any other Lender (each a “Non-Consenting Lender”).  To the extent that the Maturity Date is not
extended as to any Lender pursuant to this Section 2.15 and the Commitment of
such Lender is not assumed in accordance with Section 2.15C on or prior to the
applicable Extension Date, the Commitment of such Non-Consenting Lender shall
automatically terminate in whole on such unextended Maturity Date without any
further notice or other action by the Borrower, such Lender or any other
Person; provided that such Non-Consenting Lender’s rights under Sections
2.8 and 9.3, and its obligations under Section 10.4, shall survive the Maturity
Date for such Lender as to matters occurring prior to such date.  It is understood and agreed that no Lender
shall have any obligation whatsoever to agree to any request made by the
Borrower for any requested extension of the Maturity Date.

C.                                    If less than all of the Lenders consent to
any such request pursuant to Section 2.15A, the Borrower may arrange for one or
more Consenting Lenders or other Eligible Assignees as Assuming Lenders to
assume, effective as of the Extension Date, any Non-Consenting Lender’s
Commitment and all of the obligations of such Non-Consenting Lender under this
Agreement thereafter arising, without recourse to or warranty by, or expense
to, such Non-Consenting Lender; provided, however, that the
amount of the Commitment of any such Assuming Lender as a result of such
substitution shall in no event be less than $5,000,000 unless the amount of the
Commitment of such Non-Consenting Lender is less than $5,000,000, in which case
such Assuming Lender shall assume all of such lesser amount; and provided
further that:

(i)                                     any
such Consenting Lender or Assuming Lender shall have paid to such
Non-Consenting Lender (A) the aggregate principal amount of, and any interest
accrued and unpaid to the effective date of the assignment on, the outstanding
Loans, if any, of such Non-Consenting Lender plus (B) any accrued but
unpaid facility fees owing to such Non-Consenting Lender as of the effective
date of such assignment;

(ii)                                  all
additional costs reimbursements, expense reimbursements and indemnities payable
to such Non-Consenting Lender, and all other accrued and unpaid amounts owing
to such Non-Consenting Lender hereunder, as of the effective date of such
assignment shall have been paid to such Non-Consenting Lender; and

(iii)                               with
respect to any such Assuming Lender, the applicable processing and recordation
fee required under Section 9.15B for such assignment shall have been paid;

provided
further that such Non-Consenting Lender’s rights under Sections 2.8 and
9.3, and its obligations under Section 10.4, shall survive such substitution as
to matters occurring prior to the date of substitution.  At least three Business Days prior to any
Extension Date, (A) each such Assuming Lender, if any, shall have delivered to
the Borrower and the Administrative Agent an Assumption Agreement, duly
executed by such Assuming Lender, such Non-Consenting Lender, the Borrower and
the Administrative Agent, (B) any such Consenting Lender shall have delivered
confirmation in writing satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent as to the increase in the amount of its Commitment and (C) each
Non-Consenting Lender being replaced pursuant to this Section 2.15 shall have
delivered to the Administrative Agent any Note or Notes held by such Non-Consenting
Lender.  Upon the payment or prepayment
of all amounts referred to in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of the immediately
preceding sentence, each such

 49
 

Consenting Lender
or Assuming Lender, as of the Extension Date, will be substituted for such
Non-Consenting Lender under this Agreement and shall be a Lender for all
purposes of this Agreement, without any further acknowledgment by or the
consent of the other Lenders, and the obligations of each such Non-Consenting
Lender hereunder shall, by the provisions hereof, be released and discharged.

D.                                    If (after giving effect to any assignments or
assumptions pursuant to Section 2.15C) Lenders having Commitments equal to at
least 50% of the Commitments in effect immediately prior to the Extension Date
consent in writing to a requested extension (whether by execution or delivery
of an Assumption Agreement or otherwise) not later than one Business Day prior
to such Extension Date, the Administrative Agent shall so notify the Borrower,
and, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions in Section 3.3, the Maturity
Date then in effect shall be extended for the additional one-year period as
described in Section 2.15A, and all references in this Agreement, and in the
Notes, if any, to the “Maturity Date” shall, with respect to each Consenting
Lender and each Assuming Lender for such Extension Date, refer to the Maturity
Date as so extended.  Promptly following
each Extension Date, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders (including
each Assuming Lender) of the extension of the scheduled Maturity Date in effect
immediately prior thereto and shall thereupon record in the Register the
relevant information with respect to each such Consenting Lender and each such
Assuming Lender.

SECTION 3.    
CONDITIONS PRECEDENT

3.1                               Conditions

B.                                    Opinions of Counsel.  The

Governmental Authorizations and all consents of other Persons, in each case
that are necessary in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Loan
Documents, and each of the foregoing shall be in full force and effect and in
form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders.  All applicable waiting periods
shall have expired without any action being taken or threatened by any
competent authority which would restrain, prevent or otherwise impose material
adverse conditions on the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents or
the financing thereof and no action, request for stay, petition for review or
rehearing, reconsideration, or appeal with

 51
 

respect
to any of the foregoing shall be pending, and the time for any applicable
agency to take action to set aside its consent on its own motion shall have expired.

(ii)                                  PATRIOT Act.  Each

laundering rules and regulations, including as required by the Uniting and
Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and
Obstruct Terrorism (USA PATRIOT ACT) Act of 2001 (the “Patriot Act”).  Each Lender and each Agent (for itself and
not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the
requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record
information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and
address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender or

SECTION 4.    
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

In
order to induce the Agents and the Lenders to enter into this Agreement and to
induce the Lenders to make each Credit Extension hereunder, each Credit Party
represents and warrants (solely, in the case of any Subsidiary Borrower, as to
itself and its Subsidiaries) to each Agent, each Lender and the Issuing Bank
that the following statements are true, correct and complete:

4.1                               Organization,
Powers, Qualification, Good Standing, Business and Subsidiaries.

A.                                    Organization and Powers.  Such
Credit Party and each of its Subsidiaries is duly organized, validly existing
and in good standing, as applicable, under the laws of its jurisdiction of
organization, except, in the case of any Subsidiary that is not a Credit Party,
where the failure to be so organized, existing or in good standing has not had
and would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  Such Credit Party and each of its
Subsidiaries has all requisite power and authority to own, lease and operate
its properties, to carry on its business

 53
 

as
now conducted and as proposed to be conducted, to enter into the Loan Documents
to which it is a party and to carry out the transactions contemplated thereby.

B.                                    Qualification and Good Standing.  Such
Credit Party and each of its Subsidiaries is duly qualified to do business and
in good standing, as applicable, in every jurisdiction in which its assets are
located and wherever necessary to carry out its business and operations, except
in jurisdictions where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing has
not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

4.2                               Authorization
of Borrowing, etc.

A.                                    Authorization of Borrowing, etc.  The
execution, delivery and performance of each Loan Document to which it is a
party have been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of each
Credit Party.

B.                                    No Conflict.  The
execution, delivery and performance by such Credit Party of each Loan Document
to which it is a party and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by
each such Loan Document do not and will not (i) violate any provision of any
Applicable Law with respect to such Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries,
any of the Organizational Documents of such Credit Party or any of its
Subsidiaries or any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority
binding on such Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries, except to the extent
such violation would not be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect, (ii) conflict with, result in a breach of or constitute (with due
notice or lapse of time or both) a default under any Contractual Obligation of
such Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries, except to the extent such
conflict, breach or default would not reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect, (iii) result in or require the creation or imposition of any
Lien upon any of the properties or assets of such Credit Party or any of its
Subsidiaries, or (iv) require any approval of stockholders, partners or members
or any approval or consent of any Person under any Contractual Obligation of
such Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries, except for such approvals or
consents which will be obtained on or before the Effective Date and disclosed
in writing to Administrative Agent.

C.                                    Governmental Consents.  The
execution, delivery and performance by such Credit Party of each Loan Document
to which it is a party and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by
such Loan Document do not and will not require any Governmental Authorization.

D.                                    Binding Obligation.  Each
of the Loan Documents to which it is a party has been duly executed and
delivered by such Credit Party and is the legally valid and binding obligation
of such Credit Party, enforceable against such Credit Party in accordance with
its respective terms, except as may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium or similar laws relating to or limiting creditors’
rights generally or by equitable principles relating to enforceability.

4.3                               Disclosure.

No
representation or warranty of such Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries
contained in any Loan Document or in any other document, certificate or written
statement furnished to any

 54
 

Agent or any
Lender by or on behalf of such Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries for use
in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement contains any
untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact (known to
such Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries in the case of any document not
furnished by any of them) necessary in order to make the statements contained
herein or therein not misleading in light of the circumstances in which the
same were made.  Any projections and pro
forma financial information contained in such materials are based upon good
faith estimates and assumptions believed by the applicable Credit Party to be
reasonable at the time made, it being recognized by the Agents and the Lenders
that such projections as to future events are not to be viewed as facts and
that actual results during the period or periods covered by any such
projections may differ from the projected results.

4.4                               Financial
Condition.

The
Borrower has heretofore delivered to the Administrative Agent the audited
consolidated balance sheet of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as at December
31, 2005 and the related audited consolidated statements of income,
stockholders’ equity and cash flows of the Borrower for the Fiscal Year then
ended, together with all related notes and schedules thereto.  All such statements were prepared in
conformity with GAAP and fairly present, in all material respects, the
financial position of the entities described in such financial statements as at
the respective dates thereof and the results of operations and cash flows of
the entities described therein for each of the periods then ended, subject, in
the case of any such unaudited financial statements, to changes resulting from
audit and normal year-end adjustments. 
Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries has any contingent
liability or liability for taxes, long-term lease or unusual forward or long-term
commitment that is not reflected in the foregoing financial statements or the
notes thereto and which in any such case could reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect.

4.5                               No
Material Adverse Change.

Since
December 31, 2005, no event or change has occurred that has caused or
evidences, or could reasonably be expected to have, either individually or in
the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

4.6                               Intellectual
Property Matters.

Except
where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect, each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries owns or possesses
rights to use all franchises, licenses, copyright registrations, copyright
applications, issued patents, patent applications, trademarks, trademark applications,
trademark registrations, trademark rights, service marks, service mark
applications, service mark rights, trade names, trade name rights, copyrights
and rights with respect to the foregoing which are required to conduct its
business.  No event has occurred which
permits, or after notice or lapse of time or both would permit, the revocation
or termination of any such rights (except for the expiration of patents in the
ordinary course), and neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary thereof is liable
to any Person for infringement under Applicable Law with respect to any such
rights as a result of its business

 55
 

operations except
to the extent any such revocation, termination, or infringement could not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

4.7                               No
Litigation; Compliance with Laws.

Except
for the Disclosed Litigation, there are no actions, suits, proceedings (whether
administrative, judicial or otherwise), litigations, arbitrations or
governmental investigations (whether or not purportedly on behalf of the
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries) at law or in equity, or before or by any
Governmental Authority, domestic or foreign (including any Environmental
Claims), that are pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened
against or affecting the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any property of
the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries and that, individually or in the
aggregate, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
Effect.  Neither the Borrower nor any of
its Subsidiaries (i) is in violation of any Applicable Laws (including, but not
limited to, Environmental Laws) that, individually or in the aggregate, could
reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect or (ii) is
subject to or in default with respect to any final judgments, writs,
injunctions, decrees, rules or regulations of any Governmental Authority,
domestic or foreign, that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably
be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

4.8                               No
Default.

Neither
the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is in default in the performance,
observance or fulfillment of any of the obligations, covenants or conditions
contained in any of its Contractual Obligations, and no condition exists that,
with the giving of notice or the lapse of time or both, would constitute such a
default, except where the consequences, direct or indirect, of such default or
defaults, if any, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect.

4.9                               Governmental
Regulation.

Neither
the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is subject to regulation under the
Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, the Federal Power Act or the
Investment Company Act of 1940 or under any federal or state statute or
regulation which may limit its ability to incur Indebtedness or which may
otherwise render all or any portion of the Obligations unenforceable.  Neither the Borrower nor any of its
Subsidiaries is a “registered investment company” or a company “controlled” by
a “registered investment company” or a “principal underwriter” of a “registered
investment company” as such terms are defined in the Investment Company Act of
1940.

4.10                        Securities
Activities.

Neither
the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is engaged principally, or as one of
its important activities, in the business of extending credit for the purpose
of purchasing or carrying any Margin Stock. 
No part of the proceeds of the Loans will be used to purchase or carry
any Margin Stock or to extend credit to others for the purpose of purchasing or
carrying any Margin Stock in violation of the provisions of Regulation T, U or
X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

 56
 

4.11                        Employee
Benefit Plans.

A.                                    Each of the Borrower and its ERISA Affiliates
is in material compliance with all applicable provisions and requirements of
ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code and the regulations and published
interpretations thereunder with respect to each Employee Benefit Plan, and have
performed all their obligations under each Employee Benefit Plan in all
material respects.  Each Employee Benefit
Plan which is intended to qualify under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue
Code has received a favorable determination letter from the Internal Revenue
Service or has submitted or will submit a request for such a determination
letter within the applicable remedial amendment period.

B.                                    No material liability to the PBGC (other than
required premium payments) or the Internal Revenue Service has been or is
expected to be incurred by the Borrower or any of its ERISA Affiliates with
respect to any Employee Benefit Plan, and no ERISA Event has occurred or is
reasonably expected to occur, other than ERISA Events for which the liability
has been satisfied in full or is immaterial in amount.

C.                                    As of the most recent valuation date for each
Multiemployer Plan for which the actuarial report is available, the potential
liability of the Borrower or any of its ERISA Affiliates for a complete
withdrawal from such Multiemployer Plan (within the meaning of Section 4203 of
ERISA), when aggregated with such potential liability for a complete withdrawal
from all Multiemployer Plans, based on information available pursuant to
Section 4221(e) of ERISA is not expected to be material.  The Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries and
each of their ERISA Affiliates have complied in all material respects with the
requirements of Section 515 of ERISA with respect to each Multiemployer Plan
and are not in material “default” (as defined in Section 4219(c)(5) of ERISA) with
respect to payments to a Multiemployer Plan.

4.12                        Environmental
Protection.

A.                                    Neither the Borrower nor any of its
Subsidiaries nor any of their respective Facilities or operations is subject to
any outstanding written order, consent decree or settlement agreement with any
Person relating to any Environmental Law, any Environmental Claim, or any
Hazardous Materials Activity that, individually or in the aggregate, could
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

B.                                    Neither the Borrower nor any of its
Subsidiaries has received any letter or request for information under Section
104 of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability
Act (42 U.S.C. § 9604) or any comparable state law, except to the extent that
such letter or request could not reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect.

C.                                    There are and, to the Borrower’s and each of
its Subsidiaries’ knowledge, have been no conditions, occurrences, or Hazardous
Materials Activities which could reasonably be expected to form the basis of an
Environmental Claim against the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that,
individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect.

 57
 

D.                                    Compliance with all current or reasonably
foreseeable future requirements pursuant to or under Environmental Laws could
not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to give rise to a
Material Adverse Effect.

E.                                      Neither the Borrower nor any of its
Subsidiaries nor, to the knowledge of the Borrower, any predecessor of the
Borrower or any Subsidiary of such predecessor, has filed any notice under any
Environmental Law indicating past or present treatment of Hazardous Materials
at any Facility, and none of the Borrower’s nor any of its Subsidiaries’
operations involves the generation, transportation, treatment, storage or
disposal of hazardous waste, as defined under 40 C.F.R.  Parts 260 270 or any state equivalent, except
to the extent that any of the foregoing could not reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect.

F.                                      No event or condition has occurred or is
occurring with respect to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries relating to
any Environmental Law, any Release of Hazardous Materials, or any Hazardous
Materials Activity which individually or in the aggregate has had, or could
reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect.

4.13                        Pari
Passu.

The
Obligations and any other claims of the Lead Arrangers, the Agents and the
Lenders arising hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents rank at least pari passu with the claims of all of such
Credit Party’s other senior unsecured creditors, except those creditors whose
claims are preferred by any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium
or similar laws relating to or limiting creditors’ rights generally.

4.14                        Restrictions.

There
are no contractual restrictions on any Credit Party or any of their
Subsidiaries which prohibit or otherwise restrict the transfer of cash or other
assets from any such Subsidiary to such Credit Party, other than prohibitions
or restrictions permitted under Section 6.4.

SECTION 5.    
AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS

The
Borrower covenants and agrees that, so long as the Commitments shall remain in
effect and until payment in full of all Obligations (other than Surviving
Obligations) and cancellation or expiration of all Letters of Credit, unless
the provisions of this Section 5 are waived or amended in accordance with
Section 9.5, the Borrower shall perform, and shall cause each of its
Subsidiaries to perform, all covenants in this Section 5.

dealings and transactions in relation to its business and activities and permit
representatives or agents of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to visit
and inspect any of its properties or assets and examine and make abstracts from
any of its books and records upon reasonable prior notice during normal

existence and all rights, privileges, licenses and franchises material to its
business; provided that neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries
shall be required to preserve any such right, privilege, license or franchise

business of such Person, and that the loss thereof is not disadvantageous in
any material respect to the Borrower or the Lenders.

5.4                               Insurance.

The Borrower will
maintain or cause to be maintained, with financially sound and reputable insurers,

other material Taxes imposed upon it or any of its properties or assets or in
respect of any of its income, businesses or franchises before any penalty or
fine accrues thereon; provided no such Tax need be paid (a) if it is

consolidated income Tax return with any Person (other than the Borrower or any
of its Subsidiaries).

5.6                               Payment

noncompliance with which could reasonably be expected to have, individually or
in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

5.9                               Use
of Proceeds.

A.                                    Proceeds of Loans.  The

promptly execute, acknowledge and deliver such further documents and do such
other acts and things as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request in

foregoing, the Borrower shall take, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to
take, such actions as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request from time
to time to ensure that the Guaranteed Obligations are guarantied by the
Guarantor.

interests in the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any such Affiliate of

Borrower or such Subsidiary, as the case may be, than those that might be
obtained at the time in a comparable arm’s length transaction from a Person who
is not such a holder or Affiliate; provided the foregoing restriction
shall not apply to (a) any transaction between the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries or between such Subsidiaries to the extent otherwise permitted

such period on a pro forma basis using the historical audited financial
statements of any business so acquired or to be acquired or sold or to be sold
and the consolidated financial statements of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries
which shall be reformulated as if such Subject Transaction, and any
Indebtedness incurred or repaid in connection therewith, had been consummated
or incurred or repaid at the beginning of such period.

6.12                        Interest Rate Agreements and
Currency Agreements.

The
Borrower shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, enter into
any Interest Rate Agreement or Currency Agreement after the Effective Date
except Interest Rate Agreements and Currency Agreements entered into to hedge
or manage bona fide risks to which the Borrower or any such Subsidiary is
exposed in the conduct of its business or the management of its liabilities
(and, in any event, not for speculative purposes).

SECTION 7.     GUARANTY

7.1                               Guaranty of the Obligations.

The
Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees to the
Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Beneficiaries the due and
punctual payment in full of all Obligations of the Subsidiary Borrowers when
the same shall become due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment,
declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise (including

 69
 

amounts that would
become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of
the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. § 362(a)) (collectively, the “Guaranteed Obligations”).

7.2                               Payment by the Borrower.

The
Guarantor hereby agrees, in furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation
of any other right which any Beneficiary may have at law or in equity against
the Guarantor by virtue hereof, that upon the failure of any Subsidiary
Borrower to pay any of the Guaranteed Obligations when and as the same shall
become due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration,
acceleration, demand or otherwise (including amounts that would become due but
for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy
Code, 11 U.S.C. § 362(a)), the Guarantor will upon demand pay, or cause to be
paid, in Cash, to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the
Beneficiaries, an amount equal to the sum of the unpaid principal amount of all
Guaranteed Obligations then due as aforesaid, accrued and unpaid interest on
such Guaranteed Obligations (including interest which, but for such Subsidiary
Borrower becoming the subject of a case under the Bankruptcy Code, would have
accrued on such Guaranteed Obligations, whether or not a claim is allowed
against such Credit Party for such interest in the related bankruptcy case) and
all other Guaranteed Obligations then owed to the Beneficiaries as aforesaid.

7.3                               Liability of Guarantor
Absolute.

The
Guarantor agrees that its Obligations hereunder are irrevocable, absolute,
independent and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance
which constitutes a legal or equitable discharge of a guarantor or surety other
than payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations.  In furtherance of the foregoing and without
limiting the generality thereof, the Guarantor agrees as follows:

(a)                                  this Guaranty is a guaranty of payment when
due and not of collectability.  This
Guaranty is a primary obligation of the Guarantor and not merely a contract of
surety;

(b)                                 the Administrative Agent may enforce this
Guaranty upon the occurrence of an Event of Default notwithstanding the existence
of any dispute between any Credit Party and any Beneficiary with respect to the
existence of such Event of Default;

(c)                                  the Obligations of the Guarantor hereunder
are independent of the Obligations of the Borrower and the Subsidiary Borrowers
and the obligations of any other guarantor (including any other Guarantor), and
a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against the
Guarantor whether or not any action is brought against the Borrower or any
Subsidiary Borrower or any of such other guarantors and whether or not the
Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower is joined in any such action or actions;

(d)                                 payment by the Guarantor of a portion, but
not all, of the Guaranteed Obligations shall in no way limit, affect, modify or
abridge the Guarantor’s liability for any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations
which has not been paid.  Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, if the Administrative Agent is
awarded a judgment in any suit brought to enforce the Guarantor’s covenant to
pay a portion of the Guaranteed Obligations, such

 70
 

judgment shall not be deemed to release the Guarantor from its covenant
to pay the portion of the Guaranteed Obligations that is not the subject of
such suit;

(e)                                  any Beneficiary, upon such terms as it deems
appropriate, without notice or demand and without affecting the validity or
enforceability hereof or giving rise to any reduction, limitation, impairment,
discharge or termination of the Guarantor’s liability hereunder, from time to
time may (i) renew, extend, accelerate, increase the rate of interest on, or
otherwise change the time, place, manner or terms of payment of the Guaranteed
Obligations; (ii) settle, compromise, release or discharge, or accept or refuse
any offer of performance with respect to, or substitutions for, the Guaranteed
Obligations or any agreement relating thereto and/or subordinate the payment of
the same to the payment of any other obligations; (iii) request and accept
other guaranties of the Guaranteed Obligations and take and hold security for
the payment hereof or the Guaranteed Obligations; (iv) release, surrender,
exchange, substitute, compromise, settle, rescind, waive, alter, subordinate or
modify, with or without consideration, any security for payment of the
Guaranteed Obligations, any other guaranties of the Guaranteed Obligations, or
any other obligation of any Person with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations;
(v) enforce and apply any security now or hereafter held by or for the benefit
of such Beneficiary in respect hereof or the Guaranteed Obligations and direct
the order or manner of sale thereof, or exercise any other right or remedy that
such Beneficiary may have against any such security, in each case as such
Beneficiary in its discretion may determine consistent herewith and any
applicable security agreement, including foreclosure on any such security
pursuant to one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, whether or not every
aspect of any such sale is commercially reasonable, and even though such action
operates to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or
other right or remedy of the Guarantor against any Subsidiary Borrower or any
security for the Guaranteed Obligations; and (vi) exercise any other rights
available to it under the Loan Documents; and

(f)                                    this Guaranty and the obligations of the
Guarantor hereunder shall be valid and enforceable and shall not be subject to
any reduction, limitation, impairment, discharge or termination for any reason
(other than payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations), including the
occurrence of any of the following, whether or not the Guarantor shall have had
notice or knowledge of any of them:  (i)
any failure or omission to assert or enforce or agreement or election not to
assert or enforce, or the stay or enjoining, by order of court, by operation of
law or otherwise, of the exercise or enforcement of, any claim or demand or any
right, power or remedy (whether arising under the Loan Documents, at law, in
equity or otherwise) with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or any
agreement relating thereto, or with respect to any other guaranty of or
security for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) any rescission,
waiver, amendment or modification of, or any consent to departure from, any of
the terms or provisions (including provisions relating to events of default)
hereof, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument executed
pursuant thereto, or of any other guaranty or security for the Guaranteed
Obligations, in each case whether or not in accordance with the terms hereof or
such Loan Document or any agreement relating to such other guaranty or
security; (iii) the Guaranteed Obligations, or any agreement relating thereto,
at any time being found to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect;
(iv) the application of payments received from any source (other than payments
received pursuant to the other Loan Documents or from the proceeds of any
security for the Guaranteed Obligations, except to the extent such security
also serves as collateral for Indebtedness other than the Guaranteed
Obligations) to the payment of

 71
 

Indebtedness other than the Guaranteed Obligations, even though any
Beneficiary might have elected to apply such payment to any part or all of the
Guaranteed Obligations; (v) any Beneficiary’s consent to the change,
reorganization or termination of the corporate structure or existence of the
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries and to any corresponding restructuring of
the Guaranteed Obligations; (vi) any failure to perfect or continue perfection
of a security interest in any collateral which secures any of the Guaranteed
Obligations; (vii) any defenses, set offs or counterclaims which any Credit
Party may allege or assert against any Beneficiary in respect of the Guaranteed
Obligations, including failure of consideration, breach of warranty, payment,
statute of frauds, statute of limitations, accord and satisfaction and usury;
and (viii) any other act or thing or omission, or delay to do any other act or
thing, which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of the
Guarantor as an obligor in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations.

7.4                               Waivers by Guarantor.

The
Guarantor hereby waives, for the benefit of Beneficiaries:  (a) any right to require any Beneficiary, as
a condition of payment or performance by the Guarantor, to (i) proceed against
the Borrower or the Subsidiary Borrowers, any other guarantor of the Guaranteed
Obligations or any other Person, (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security
held from the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower, any such other guarantor or
any other Person, (iii) proceed against or have resort to any balance of any
Deposit Account or credit on the books of any Beneficiary in favor of the
Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower or any other Person, or (iv) pursue any
other remedy in the power of any Beneficiary whatsoever; (b) any defense
arising by reason of the incapacity, lack of authority or any disability or
other defense of the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower including any defense
based on or arising out of the illegality, lack of validity or unenforceability
of the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement or instrument relating thereto
or by reason of the cessation of the liability of the Borrower or any
Subsidiary Borrower from any cause other than payment in full of the Guaranteed
Obligations; (c) any defense based upon any statute or rule of law which
provides that the obligation of a surety must be neither larger in amount nor
in other respects more burdensome than that of the principal; (d) any defense
based upon any Beneficiary’s errors or omissions in the administration of the
Guaranteed Obligations, except behavior which amounts to bad faith; (e) (i) any
principles or provisions of law, statutory or otherwise, which are or might be
in conflict with the terms hereof and any legal or equitable discharge of the
Guarantor’s obligations hereunder, (ii) the benefit of any statute of
limitations affecting the Guarantor’s liability hereunder or the enforcement
hereof, (iii) any rights to set offs, recoupments and counterclaims, and (iv)
promptness, diligence and any requirement that any Beneficiary protect, secure,
perfect or insure any security interest or lien or any property subject
thereto; (f) notices, demands, presentments, protests, notices of protest,
notices of dishonor and notices of any action or inaction, including acceptance
hereof, notices of default hereunder, notices of any renewal, extension or
modification of the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement related thereto,
notices of any extension of credit to any Subsidiary Borrower and notices of
any of the matters referred to in Section 7.2 and any right to consent to any
thereof; and (g) any defenses or benefits that may be derived from or afforded
by law which limit the liability of or exonerate guarantors or sureties, or
which may conflict with the terms hereof.

 72
 

7.5                               Guarantor’s Rights of
Subrogation, Contribution, etc.

Until
the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full and the
Commitments shall have terminated and all Letters of Credit shall have expired
or been cancelled, the Guarantor hereby waives any claim, right or remedy,
direct or indirect, that the Guarantor now has or may hereafter have against
any Subsidiary Borrower or any of its assets in connection with this Guaranty
or the performance by the Guarantor of its Obligations hereunder, in each case
whether such claim, right or remedy arises in equity, under contract, by
statute, under common law or otherwise and including (a) any right of
subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification that the Guarantor now has or may
hereafter have against any Subsidiary Borrower with respect to the Guaranteed
Obligations, (b) any right to enforce, or to participate in, any claim, right
or remedy that any Beneficiary now has or may hereafter have against any
Subsidiary Borrower, and (c) any benefit of, and any right to participate in,
any collateral or security now or hereafter held by any Beneficiary.  In addition, until the Guaranteed Obligations
shall have been indefeasibly paid in full and the Commitments shall have
terminated and all Letters of Credit shall have expired or been cancelled, the
Guarantor shall withhold exercise of any right of contribution the Guarantor
may have against any other guarantor (including any other Guarantor) of the
Guaranteed Obligations.  The Guarantor
further agrees that, to the extent the waiver or agreement to withhold the
exercise of its rights of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification and
contribution as set forth herein is found by a court of competent jurisdiction
to be void or voidable for any reason, any rights of subrogation, reimbursement
or indemnification the Guarantor may have against any Subsidiary Borrower or
against any collateral or security, and any rights of contribution the
Guarantor may have against any such other guarantor, shall be junior and
subordinate to any rights any Beneficiary may have against any Subsidiary
Borrower, to all right, title and interest any Beneficiary may have in any such
collateral or security, and to any right any Beneficiary may have against such
other guarantor.  If any amount shall be
paid to the Guarantor on account of any such subrogation, reimbursement,
indemnification or contribution rights at any time when all Guaranteed
Obligations shall not have been finally and indefeasibly paid in full, such
amount shall be held in trust for the Administrative Agent on behalf of the
Beneficiaries and shall forthwith be paid over to the Administrative Agent for
the benefit of the Beneficiaries to be credited and applied against the
Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the
terms hereof.

7.6                               Subordination of Other
Obligations.

Any
Indebtedness of any Subsidiary Borrower now or hereafter held by the Guarantor
is hereby subordinated in right of payment to the Guaranteed Obligations, and
any such Indebtedness collected or received by the Guarantor after an Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing shall be held in trust for the
Administrative Agent on behalf of the Beneficiaries and shall forthwith be paid
over to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Beneficiaries to be
credited and applied against the Guaranteed Obligations but without affecting,
impairing or limiting in any manner the liability of the Guarantor under any
other provision hereof.

7.7                               Continuing Guaranty.

This
Guaranty is a continuing guaranty and shall remain in effect until all of the
Guaranteed Obligations shall have been paid in full and the Commitments shall
have terminated

 73
 

and all Letters of
Credit shall have expired or been cancelled. 
The Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any right to revoke this
Guaranty as to future transactions giving rise to any Guaranteed Obligations.

7.8                               Authority of Credit Parties.

It
is not necessary for any Beneficiary to inquire into the capacity or powers of
any Credit Party or the officers, directors or any agents acting or purporting
to act on behalf of any of them.

7.9                               Financial Condition of
Credit Parties.

Any
Credit Extension may be made to any Credit Party or continued from time to
time, without notice to or authorization from the Guarantor regardless of the
financial or other condition of any Credit Party at the time of any such grant
or continuation is entered into, as the case may be.  No Beneficiary shall have any obligation to
disclose or discuss with the Guarantor its assessment, or the Guarantor’s
assessment, of the financial condition of any Credit Party.  The Guarantor has adequate means to obtain
information from the other Credit Parties on a continuing basis concerning the
financial condition of the other Credit Parties and their ability to perform
their Obligations under the Loan Documents, and the Guarantor assumes the
responsibility for being and keeping informed of the financial condition of the
other Credit Parties and of all circumstances bearing upon the risk of
nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations. 
The Guarantor hereby waives and relinquishes any duty on the part of any
Beneficiary to disclose any matter, fact or thing relating to the business,
operations or conditions of any other Credit Parties now known or hereafter
known by any Beneficiary.

7.10                        Bankruptcy, etc.

(a)                                  So long as any Guaranteed Obligations remain
outstanding, the Guarantor shall not, without the prior written consent of the
Administrative Agent acting pursuant to the instructions of the Requisite
Lenders, commence or join with any other Person in commencing any bankruptcy,
reorganization or insolvency case or proceeding of or against any other Credit
Party.  The Obligations of the Guarantor
hereunder shall not be reduced, limited, impaired, discharged, deferred,
suspended or terminated by any case or proceeding, voluntary or involuntary,
involving the bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, reorganization, liquidation
or arrangement of any Credit Party or by any defense which such Credit Party or
any other Credit Party may have by reason of the order, decree or decision of
any court or administrative body resulting from any such proceeding.

(b)                                 The Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that
any interest on any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations which accrues after
the commencement of any case or proceeding referred to in clause (a) above (or,
if interest on any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations ceases to accrue by
operation of law by reason of the commencement of such case or proceeding, such
interest as would have accrued on such portion of the Guaranteed Obligations if
such case or proceeding had not been commenced) shall be included in the Guaranteed
Obligations because it is the intention of the Guarantor and the Beneficiaries
that the Guaranteed Obligations which are guaranteed by the Guarantor pursuant
hereto should be determined without regard to any rule of law or order which
may relieve any other Credit Party of any

 74
 

portion of such Guaranteed Obligations. 
The Guarantor will permit any trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, debtor in
possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors or similar person to pay the
Administrative Agent, or allow the claim of the Administrative Agent in respect
of, any such interest accruing after the date on which such case or proceeding
is commenced.

(c)                                  In the event that all or any portion of the
Guaranteed Obligations are paid by any Credit Party, the Obligations of the
Guarantor hereunder shall continue and remain in full force and effect or be
reinstated, as the case may be, in the event that all or any part of such
payment(s) are rescinded or recovered directly or indirectly from any
Beneficiary as a preference, fraudulent transfer or otherwise, and any such
payments which are so rescinded or recovered shall constitute Guaranteed
Obligations for all purposes hereunder.

SECTION 8.     EVENTS OF DEFAULT

portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, including all or a
portion of its Commitment or Loans owing to it or other Obligation (provided,
however, that each such assignment shall be of a uniform, and not
varying, percentage of all rights and obligations under and in respect of Loans
and its Commitment):  (i) to any Person
meeting the criteria of clause (A) of the definition of the term of “Eligible
Assignee” or to any Approved Fund upon the giving of notice to the Borrower and
the Administrative Agent; and (ii) to any Person meeting the criteria of clause
(B) of the definition of the term of “Eligible Assignee” and consented to by
each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be (x)
unreasonably withheld or delayed and, (y) in the case of the Borrower, required
at any time an Event of Default shall have occurred and then be continuing); provided
further each such assignment pursuant to this Section 9.1A shall be in
an aggregate amount of not less than $5,000,000, which such amount shall be
reduced to $1,000,000 at any time an Event of Default shall have occurred and
be continuing (or such lesser amount as may be agreed to by the Borrower and
the Administrative Agent or as shall constitute the aggregate amount of the
Commitment and Loans of the assigning Lender).

B.                                    Requirements.  The
assigning Lender and the assignee thereof shall execute and deliver to the
Administrative Agent an Assignment Agreement, together with (i) a processing

completed Assignment Agreement, together with the processing and recordation
fee referred to in Section 9.1B (and any forms, certificates or other evidence

D.                                    Representations and Warranties of
Assignee.  Each Lender, upon execution and delivery
hereof or upon executing and delivering an Assignment Agreement, as the case
may be, represents and warrants as of the Effective Date or as of the
applicable Effective Date (as defined in the applicable Assignment Agreement)
that (i) it is an Eligible Assignee; (ii) it has experience and expertise in
the making of or investing in commitments or loans such as its Commitment or
Loans, as the case may be; and (iii) it will make or invest in, as the case may
be, its Commitment or Loans for its own account in the ordinary course of its
business and without a view to distribution of its Commitment or Loans within
the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or other federal
securities laws (it being understood that, subject to the provisions of this
Section 9.1, the disposition of its Commitment or Loans or any interests
therein shall at all times remain within its exclusive control).

E.                                      Effect of Assignment. 
Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 9.1, as of the
“Effective Date” specified in the applicable Assignment Agreement:  (i) the assignee thereunder shall have the
rights and obligations of a “Lender” hereunder to the extent such rights and
obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment Agreement
and shall thereafter be a party hereto and a “Lender” for all purposes hereof;
(ii) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and
obligations hereunder have been assigned thereby pursuant to such Assignment
Agreement, relinquish its rights (other than any rights which survive the
termination hereof under Section 9.9) and be released from its obligations
hereunder (and, in the case of an Assignment Agreement covering all or the
remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations hereunder,
such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto; provided, anything contained in
any of the Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, (y) the Issuing Bank
shall continue to have all rights and obligations thereof with respect to such
Letters of Credit until the cancellation or expiration of such Letters of
Credit and the reimbursement of any amounts drawn thereunder and (z) such
assigning Lender shall continue to be entitled to the benefit of all
indemnities hereunder as specified herein with respect to matters arising out
of the prior involvement of such assigning Lender as a Lender hereunder); (iii)
the Commitments shall be modified to reflect the Commitment of such assignee
and any Commitment of such assigning Lender, if any; and (iv) if any such
assignment occurs after the issuance of any Note to the assigning Lender, the
assigning Lender shall, upon the effectiveness of such assignment or as
promptly thereafter as practicable, surrender its applicable Notes to the
Administrative Agent for cancellation, and thereupon the Credit Parties shall
issue and deliver new Notes, if so requested by the assignee and/or assigning
Lender, to such assignee and/or to such assigning Lender, with appropriate
insertions, to evidence the Loans of the assignee and/or the assigning Lender.

F.                                      Certain Other Permitted
Assignments.  In addition to any other assignment permitted
pursuant to this Section 9.1, any Lender may assign and/or pledge all or any
portion of its Loans, the other obligations owed by or to such Lender, and its
Letters of Credit, if any, to secure obligations of such Lender including to
any Federal Reserve Bank as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A of the
Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and any operating circular
issued by such Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such assignment or
pledge shall release any Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or
substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

 79

G.                                    Participations.  Each
Lender shall have the right at any time to sell one or more participations to
any Person (other than the Credit Parties, any of their Subsidiaries or any of
their Affiliates) in all or any part of its Commitment, Loans or other Obligations.  The holder of any such participation, other
than an Affiliate of the Lender granting such participation, shall not be
entitled to require such Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder
except with respect to any amendment, modification or waiver that would (i)
extend the final scheduled maturity of any Loan or Note in which such
participant is participating, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment
of interest or fees thereon (except in connection with a waiver of applicability
of any post default increase in interest rates) or reduce the principal amount
thereof, or increase the amount of the participant’s participation over the
amount thereof then in effect (it being understood that a waiver of any Event
of Default or of a mandatory reduction in the Commitment shall not constitute a
change in the terms of such participation, and that an increase in any
Commitment or Loan shall be permitted without the consent of any participant if
the participant’s participation is not increased as a result thereof) or (ii)
consent to the assignment or transfer by any Credit Party of any of its rights
and obligations under this Agreement. 
The Credit Parties agree that each participant shall be entitled to the
benefits of Sections 2.9C and 2.8 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and
had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 9.1A; provided
(i) a participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under
Section 2.8 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 applicable Credit Party’s
prior written consent and (ii) a participant that would be a Non-US Lender if it
were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.8B unless the
applicable Credit Party is notified of the participation sold to such
participant and such participant agrees, for the benefit of such Credit Party,
to comply with Section 2.8B as though it were a Lender.  To the extent permitted by law, each
participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.5 as though it
were a Lender, provided such participant agrees to be subject to Section 9.19
as though it were a Lender.

9.2                               Expenses.

Whether
or not the transactions contemplated hereby shall be consummated, the Credit
Parties agree to pay promptly (i) all the actual and reasonable costs and
out-of-pocket expenses of preparation of the Loan Documents; (ii) all the costs
of furnishing all opinions by counsel for the Credit Parties; (iii) the
reasonable fees, out-of-pocket expenses and disbursements of a single U.S.

execution of the Loan Documents and any other documents or matters requested by
the Credit Parties; (iv) all the actual and reasonable costs and out-of-pocket
reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of any auditors, accountants,
consultants or appraisers; (v) all other actual and reasonable costs and

and each Syndication Agent in connection with the syndication of the Loans and
the negotiation, preparation and execution of the Loan Documents and the
transactions contemplated thereby; (vi) all actual and reasonable costs and
out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with
any consents, amendments, waivers or other modifications of the Loan Documents
(including the reasonable fees, out-of-pocket expenses and disbursements of
counsel to the Administrative Agent in connection therewith); and (vii) after
the occurrence of an Event of Default, all costs and expenses, including
reasonable attorneys’ fees (including, without duplication, allocated

 80
 

costs of internal
counsel) and costs of settlement, incurred by any Agent or Lender in enforcing
any Obligations of or in collecting any payments due from the Credit Parties hereunder
or under the other Loan Documents by reason of such Event of Default (including
in connection with the sale of, collection from, or other realization upon any
collateral) or in connection with any refinancing or restructuring of the
credit arrangements provided under this Agreement in the nature of a “work-out”
or pursuant to any insolvency or bankruptcy cases or proceedings.

9.3                               Indemnity.

A.                                    In addition to the payment of expenses
pursuant to Section 9.2, whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby
shall be consummated, the Credit Parties agree to defend (subject to
Indemnitees’ selection of counsel), indemnify, pay and hold harmless each of
the Lead Arrangers and Agents and each Lender, and the respective partners,
officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys, and affiliates of each of
the Lead Arrangers and each of the Agents and each Lender (collectively called
the “Indemnitees”), from and against any and all Indemnified
Liabilities (as hereinafter defined); provided that the Credit Parties
shall not have any obligation to any Indemnitee hereunder with respect to any
Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities arise from
the gross negligence or willful misconduct of that Indemnitee or any of its
Affiliates as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent
jurisdiction.  As used herein, “Indemnified Liabilities” means, collectively, any and all
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages (including natural resource damages),
penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims (including environmental claims),
costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including
the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for Indemnitees in connection
with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding commenced or
threatened by any Credit Party or any other Person, whether or not any such
Indemnitee shall be designated as a party or a potential party thereto, and any
fees or expenses incurred by Indemnitees in enforcing this indemnity), whether
direct, indirect or consequential and whether based on any federal, state or
foreign laws, statutes, rules or regulations (including securities and
commercial laws, statutes, rules or regulations and Environmental Laws), on
common law or equitable cause or on contract or otherwise, that may be imposed
on, incurred by, or asserted against any such Indemnitee, in any manner
relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (including the Lenders’ agreements
to make the Credit Extensions hereunder or the use or intended use of the
proceeds thereof, or any enforcement of any of the Loan Documents (including
the enforcement of the Guaranty)).

B.                                    To the extent that the undertakings to defend,
indemnify, pay and hold harmless set forth in this Section 9.3 may be
unenforceable in whole or in part because they are violative of any law or
public policy, the Credit Parties shall contribute the maximum portion that it
is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and
satisfaction of all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by Indemnitees or any of
them.

C.                                    To the extent permitted by applicable law,
the Credit Parties and each of their Subsidiaries shall not assert, and each
hereby waives, any claim against the Lenders, the Agents, the Lead Arrangers
and their respective Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, attorneys or
agents, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or
punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) (whether or not the
claim therefor is based on contract, tort

 81
 

or duty imposed by any applicable legal requirement) arising out of, in
connection with, arising out of, as a result of, or in any way related to, this
Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any agreement or instrument
contemplated hereby or thereby or referred to herein or therein, the
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the
proceeds thereof or any act or omission or event occurring in connection
therewith, and the Credit Parties and each of its Subsidiaries hereby waives,
releases and agrees not to sue upon any such claim or any such damages, whether
or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor.

9.4                               Exception
for Subsidiary Borrowers.

Notwithstanding
the foregoing, nothing in Sections 9.2 and 9.3 shall require a payment by a
Subsidiary Borrower if such payment would violate any Applicable Law or if any
Applicable Law would require minority shareholder approval, a valuation or a
discretionary order, provided that the Guarantor shall be liable for any
such payment referred to in this Section 9.4.

9.5                               Set-Off.

In
addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law and not by
way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of any Event of Default, each of the Agents and each Lender (and
each of their respective Affiliates) is hereby authorized by the Credit Parties
at any time or from time to time subject, except in the case of an Event of
Default under Section 8.1, 8.6 or 8.7, to the consent of the Administrative
Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), without notice
to the Credit Parties or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby
expressly waived, to set-off and to appropriate and to apply any and all
deposits (general or special, including Indebtedness evidenced by certificates
of deposit, whether matured or unmatured, but not including trust accounts) and
any other Indebtedness at any time held or owing by such Agent or such Lender
(or such Affiliate), and any of their respective affiliates, as the case may
be, to or for the credit or the account of any Credit Party against and on
account of the obligations and liabilities of any Credit Party to such Agent or
such Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including all
claims of any nature or description arising out of or connected with this
Agreement or any other Loan Document, irrespective of whether or not (i) such
Agent or such Lender shall have made any demand hereunder or (ii) the principal
of or the interest on the Loans or any other amounts due hereunder shall have
become due and payable pursuant to Section 9 and although said Obligations, or
any of them, may be contingent or unmatured.

9.6                               Amendments
and Waivers.

No
amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of this
Agreement or of any other Loan Document, or consent to any departure by the
Credit Parties therefrom, shall in any event be effective without the written
concurrence of the Requisite Lenders; provided that no amendment,
modification, termination, waiver or consent shall, without the consent of each
Lender:  (i) except as provided in
Section 2.15, extend the scheduled final maturity of any Loan or Note; (ii)
waive, reduce or postpone any scheduled repayment (but not prepayment); (iii)
reduce the rate of interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable
hereunder; (iv) extend the time for payment of any such interest, fees or other
amounts; (v)

 82

transfer by any Credit Party of any of its rights and obligations under this
Agreement; or (x) release the Guarantor from its Obligations under the
Guaranty; provided further that no such amendment, modification,
termination or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents, or consent to any
departure by any Credit Party therefrom, shall: 
(1) increase the Commitments of any Lender over the amount thereof then
in effect without the consent of such Lender; or (2) amend, modify, terminate
or waive any provision of this Agreement as the same applies to the rights or
obligations of any Agent, in each case without the consent of such Agent.  The Administrative Agent may, but shall have
no obligation to, with the concurrence of any Lender, execute amendments,
modifications, waivers or consents on behalf of such Lender.  Any waiver or consent shall be effective only
in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was
given.  No notice to or demand on any
Credit Party in any case shall entitle such Credit Party to any other or
further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

9.7                               Independence
of Covenants.

All
covenants hereunder shall be given independent effect so that if a particular
action or condition is not permitted by any of such covenants, the fact that it
would be permitted by an exception to, or would otherwise be within the
limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid the occurrence of an Event of
Default or Potential Event of Default if such action is taken or condition
exists.

9.8                               Notices.

transmission system (the “Platform”).

(iii)                            THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS”

(AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE

ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE OFFICERS, DIRECTORS,
EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, ADVISORS OR REPRESENTATIVES (COLLECTIVELY, “AGENT PARTIES”)
HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO THE CREDIT PARTIES, ANY LENDER OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR
ENTITY FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING DIRECT OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL,
INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOSSES OR EXPENSES (WHETHER IN TORT,
CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF THE CREDIT PARTIES’ OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE
AGENT’S TRANSMISSION OF COMMUNICATIONS THROUGH THE INTERNET, EXCEPT TO THE
EXTENT THE LIABILITY OF ANY AGENT PARTY IS FOUND IN A FINAL NON-APPEALABLE
JUDGMENT BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION TO HAVE RESULTED PRIMARILY FROM
SUCH AGENT PARTY’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT.

(iv)                              The Administrative Agent agrees that the receipt of the Communications
by the Administrative Agent at its e-mail address set forth above shall
constitute effective delivery of the Communications to the Administrative Agent
for purposes of the Loan Documents.  Each
Lender agrees that notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) specifying
that the Communications have been posted to the Platform shall constitute
effective delivery of the Communications to such Lender for purposes of the

notify the Administrative Agent in writing (including by electronic communication)
from time to time of such Lender’s e-mail address to which the foregoing notice
may be sent by electronic transmission and (ii) that the foregoing notice may

C.                                    Notices to Subsidiary Borrowers.  Each
Subsidiary Borrower hereby designates the Borrower as its representative and
agent on its behalf for the purposes of giving and receiving all notices (other
than Notices of Borrowing) and any other documentation required to be delivered
to it pursuant to this Agreement and any other Loan Document by the Administrative
Agent or any Lender.  The Borrower hereby
accepts such appointment.  The Agents and
the Lenders may regard any notice (other than Notices of Borrowing) or other
communication pursuant to any Loan Document from the Borrower as a notice or
communication from all borrowers, and may give any notice or communication
required or permitted to be given to any Subsidiary Borrower or Subsidiary
Borrowers hereunder to the Borrower on behalf of such Subsidiary Borrower or
Subsidiary Borrowers.  Each Subsidiary
Borrower agrees that each notice, election, representation and warranty,
covenant, agreement and undertaking made on its behalf by the Borrower shall be
deemed for all purposes to have been made by such Subsidiary Borrower and shall
be binding upon and enforceable against such Subsidiary Borrower to the same

in Sections 2.8, 2.9C, 9.2, 9.3 and 9.5 and the agreements of Lenders set forth
in Sections 9.19, 10.2C and 10.4 shall survive the payment of the Loans and the
termination of this Agreement.

9.10                        Failure
or Indulgence Not Waiver; Remedies Cumulative.

No
failure or delay on the part of any Lead Arranger, any Agent or any Lender in
the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan
Document shall impair such power, right or privilege or be construed to be a
waiver of any default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial
exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further
exercise thereof or of any other power, right or privilege.  The rights, powers and remedies given to each
Lead Arranger, each Agent and each Lender hereby are cumulative and shall be in
addition to and independent of all rights, powers and remedies existing by
virtue of any statute or rule of law or in any other Loan Document.  Any forbearance or failure to exercise, and any
delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall not impair any
such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver thereof, nor shall
it preclude the further exercise of any such right, power or remedy.

Payments Set Aside.

No
Agent or Lender shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of
any Credit Party or any other Person or against or in payment of any or all of
the Obligations.  To the extent that any
Credit Party makes a payment or payments to the Administrative Agent or the
Lenders (or to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lenders) or the
Administrative Agent or the Lenders enforce any security interests or exercises
their rights of set-off, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such
enforcement or set-off or any part thereof are subsequently

 85
 

invalidated,
declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required to be
repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, any
other state or federal law, common law or any equitable cause, then, to the
extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to
be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor or related thereto,
shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment or payments
had not been made or such enforcement or set-off had not occurred.

9.12                        Severability.

In
case any provision in or obligation under any Loan Document shall be invalid,
illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and
enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations of such Loan
Document, the other Loan Documents or of such provision or obligation in any
other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

9.13                        Headings.

Section
and subsection headings in this Agreement are included herein for convenience
of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement for any
other purpose or be given any substantive effect.

successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and
the successors and assigns of the Lenders (it being understood that each
Lender’s rights of assignment are subject to Section 9.1).  The Credit Parties may not assign or delegate
its rights or obligations hereunder or any interest therein without the prior
written consent of each Lender.  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 Indemnitees,
and Affiliates of each of the Agents and the Lenders) any legal or equitable
right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

MODIFICATIONS

9.18                        Confidentiality.

Each
Agent and Lender shall hold all confidential, proprietary or non-public
information regarding the Credit Parties and their respective Subsidiaries and
their respective businesses which has been identified as confidential by any
such Credit Party and obtained pursuant to the requirements of this Agreement
in accordance with such Agent’s or Lender’s customary procedures for handling
confidential information of this nature and in accordance with safe and sound
banking practices, it being understood and agreed by the Credit Parties that in
any event each Lender may make disclosures (i) to Affiliates of such Agent or
Lender and the directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and other
representatives of such Agent or Lender and their Affiliates (and to other
persons authorized by an Agent or Lender to organize, present or disseminate
such information in connection with disclosures otherwise made in accordance
with this Section 9.18); (ii) reasonably required by any bona fide or potential
assignee, transferee or participant in connection with the contemplated
assignment, transfer or participation by any Lender of its Loans or any
interest therein; (iii) to any rating agency when required by it, provided
that, prior to any disclosure, such rating agency shall undertake in writing to
preserve the confidentiality of any confidential information relating to the
Credit Parties or their Subsidiaries received by it from any of the Agents or
any Lender; (iv) required or requested by any Governmental Authority or
representative thereof; provided that unless specifically prohibited by
applicable law, court order or similar regulatory process, each Agent and
Lender shall make reasonable efforts to notify the Credit Parties of any
request by any Governmental Authority or representative thereof (other than any
such request in connection with any examination of the financial condition or
other routine examination of such Agent or Lender by such Governmental
Authority) for disclosure of any such non-public information prior to
disclosure of such information; (v) to any other party hereto; (vi) in
connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan
Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other
Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder; (vii) to
any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or
derivative transaction relating to the Credit Parties and their Obligations;
(viii) with the consent of the applicable Credit Party or (ix) to the extent
such information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a
breach of this Section 9.18 or (y) becomes available to any Agent, any Lender
or their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other
than the Credit Parties so long as such Agent, such Lender or such Affiliate
does not have knowledge that such source has an obligation to any Credit Party
to keep such information confidential; provided that in no event shall
any Agent or Lender be obligated or required to return any materials furnished
by any Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries.

9.19                        Ratable
Sharing.

The
Lenders hereby agree among themselves that if any of them shall, whether by
voluntary payment (other than a voluntary prepayment of Loans made and applied
in accordance with the terms hereof), through the exercise of any right of
set-off or banker’s lien, by

 88
 

counterclaim or
cross action or by the enforcement of any right under the Loan Documents or
otherwise, or as adequate protection of a deposit treated as cash collateral
under the Bankruptcy Code, receive payment or reduction of a proportion of the
aggregate amount of principal, interest, amounts payable in respect of facility
fees or commitment fees and other amounts then due and owing to such Lender
hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (collectively, the “Aggregate Amounts Due” to such Lender),
which is greater than the proportion received by any other Lender in respect to
of the Aggregate Amounts Due to such other Lender, then the Lender receiving
such proportionately greater payment shall (i) notify the Administrative Agent
of the receipt of such payment and (ii) apply a portion of such payment to
purchase (for cash at face value) participations (which it shall be deemed to
have purchased from each seller of a participation simultaneously upon the
receipt by such seller of its portion of such payment), or such other
adjustments as shall be equitable, in the Aggregate Amounts Due to the other
Lenders so that all such recoveries of Aggregate Amounts Due shall be shared by
all Lenders in proportion to the Aggregate Amounts Due to them; provided
that, if all or part of such proportionately greater payment received by such
purchasing Lender is thereafter recovered from such Lender upon the bankruptcy
or reorganization of any Credit Party or otherwise, those purchases shall be
rescinded and the purchase prices paid for such participations shall be
returned to such purchasing Lender ratably to the extent of such recovery, but
without interest.  The Credit Parties and
each of their Subsidiaries expressly consents to the foregoing arrangement and
agrees that any holder of a participation so purchased may exercise any and all
rights of banker’s lien, set-off or counterclaim with respect to any and all
monies owing by the Credit Parties or any of their Subsidiaries to that holder
with respect thereto as fully as if that holder were owed the amount of the
participation held by that holder.

9.20                        Counterparts;
Effectiveness.

This
Agreement and any amendments, waivers, consents or supplements hereto or in
connection herewith may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of
which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all such
counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same instrument.  This Agreement shall become effective upon
the execution of a counterpart hereof by each of the parties hereto and receipt
by the Administrative Agent of written or telephonic notification of such
execution and authorization of delivery thereof.

9.21                        Obligations
Several; Independent Nature of Lenders’ Rights.

The
obligations of the Lenders hereunder are several and no Lender shall be
responsible for the obligations or Commitment of any other Lender
hereunder.  Nothing contained herein or
in any other Loan Document, and no action taken by the Lenders pursuant hereto
or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Lenders as a partnership, an
association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity.  The amounts payable at any time hereunder to
each Lender shall be a separate and independent debt, and each Lender shall be
entitled to protect and enforce its rights arising out hereof and it shall not
be necessary for any other Lender to be joined as an additional party in any
proceeding for such purpose.

 89
 

9.22                        Usury
Savings Clause.

Notwithstanding
any other provision herein, the aggregate interest rate charged with respect to
any of the Obligations, including all charges or fees in connection therewith
deemed in the nature of interest under applicable law shall not exceed the
Highest Lawful Rate.  As used herein, “Highest Lawful Rate” means the maximum
lawful interest rate, if any, that at any time or from time to time may be
contracted for, charged, or received under the laws applicable to any Lender
which are presently in effect or, to the extent allowed by law, under such
applicable laws which may hereafter be in effect and which allow a higher
maximum nonusurious interest rate than applicable laws now allow.  If the rate of interest (determined without
regard to the preceding sentence) under this Agreement at any time exceeds the
Highest Lawful Rate, the outstanding amount of the Loans made hereunder shall
bear interest at the Highest Lawful Rate until the total amount of interest due
hereunder equals the amount of interest which would have been due hereunder if
the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been
in effect.  In addition, if when the
Loans made hereunder are repaid in full the total interest due hereunder
(taking into account the increase provided for above) is less than the total
amount of interest which would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of
interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect, then to
the extent permitted by law, the Credit Parties shall pay to the Administrative
Agent an amount equal to the difference between the amount of interest paid and
the amount of interest which would have been paid if the Highest Lawful Rate
had at all times been in effect. 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is the intention of the Lenders and
the Credit Parties to conform strictly to any applicable usury laws.  Accordingly, if any Lender contracts for,
charges, or receives any consideration which constitutes interest in excess of
the Highest Lawful Rate, then any such excess shall be cancelled automatically
and, if previously paid, shall at such Lender’s option be applied to the
outstanding amount of the Loans made hereunder or be refunded to the Credit
Parties.

9.23                        Judgment
Currency.

The
obligation of the Credit Parties to make payments of the principal of and
interest on the Obligations in the Currency specified for such payment shall
not be discharged or satisfied by any tender, or any recovery pursuant to any
judgment, which is expressed in or converted into any other currency, except to
the extent that such tender or recovery shall result in the actual receipt by
the Administrative Agent or the applicable Lender of the full amount of the
particular Currency expressed to be payable pursuant to the applicable Loan
Document.  The Administrative Agent
shall, using all amounts obtained or received from the applicable Credit Party
pursuant to any such tender or recovery in payment of principal of and interest
on the Obligations, promptly purchase the applicable Currency at the most
favorable spot exchange rate determined by the Administrative Agent to be
available to it.  The obligation of the
Credit Parties to make payments in the applicable Currency shall be enforceable
as an alternative or additional cause of action solely for the purpose of
recovering in the applicable Currency the amount, if any, by which such actual
receipt shall fall short of the full amount of the currency expressed to be
payable pursuant to the applicable Loan Document.

 90
 

9.24                        Termination
of Existing Credit Agreement.

The
Borrower and each of the Lenders that is also a “Lender” party to the Credit
Agreement and Guaranty dated as of April 30, 2002, as amended, among the
Borrower, the lenders party thereto and Citicorp North America, Inc., as
administrative agent (the “Existing Credit Agreement”), agrees that the
“Commitments” as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement shall be terminated
in their entirety on the Effective Date in accordance with the terms
thereof.  Each of such Lenders waives any
requirement of notice of such termination pursuant to Article II of the
Existing Credit Agreement.

Parties shall have no rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the
provisions thereof.  In performing its
functions and duties under this Agreement, each of the Agents shall act solely
as an agent of the Lenders and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have

any Credit Party or any of their respective Subsidiaries.

10.2                        Powers
and Duties; General Immunity.

A.                                    Powers; Duties Specified.  Each
Lender irrevocably authorizes each Agent to take such action on such Lender’s
behalf and to exercise such powers, rights and remedies hereunder and under the
other Loan Documents as are specifically delegated or granted to such Agent by
the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers, rights and remedies as
are reasonably incidental thereto.  Each
Agent shall have only those duties and responsibilities that are expressly
specified in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.  Each Agent may exercise such powers, rights
and remedies and perform such duties by or through its agents or
employees.  No Agent shall have, by
reason of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, a fiduciary
relationship in respect of any Lender; and nothing in this Agreement or any of
the other Loan Documents, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so
construed as to impose upon any Agent any obligations in respect of this
Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents except as expressly set forth
herein or therein.  Anything herein to
the contrary notwithstanding, none of the Lead Arrangers, Syndication Agents or
Documentation Agents listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers,
duties or responsibilities under this

 91
 

Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity,
as applicable, as a Lender or the Issuing Bank hereunder.

B.                                    No Responsibility for Certain
Matters.  No Agent shall be responsible to any Lender
for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability,
collectability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or
for any representations, warranties, recitals or statements made herein or
therein or made in any written or oral statements or in any financial or other
statements, instruments, reports or certificates or any other documents
furnished or made by any Agent to the Lenders or by or on behalf of the Credit
Parties to any Agent or any Lender in connection with the Loan Documents and
the transactions contemplated thereby or for the financial condition or business
affairs of the Credit Parties or any other Person liable for the payment of any
Obligations, nor shall any Agent be required to ascertain or inquire as to the
performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions, provisions,
covenants or agreements contained in any of the Loan Documents (other than to
confirm receipt of items required under this Agreement or any Loan Document to
be delivered to such Agent) or as to the use of the proceeds of the Loans or as
to the existence or possible existence of any Event of Default or Potential
Event of Default (unless and until notice describing such Event of Default or
Potential Event of Default is given to such Agent by a Credit Party or any
other Agent) or to make disclosures with respect to the foregoing.  Anything contained in this Agreement to the
contrary notwithstanding, the Administrative Agent shall not have any liability
arising from confirmations of the amount of outstanding Loans or the component
amounts thereof.

C.                                    Exculpatory Provisions.  No
Agent nor any of its officers, partners, directors, employees or agents shall
be liable to the Lenders for any action taken or omitted by any Agent under or
in connection with any of the Loan Documents except to the extent caused by
such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.  Each Agent shall be entitled to refrain from
any act or the taking of any action (including the failure to take an action)
in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or from
the exercise of any power, discretion or authority vested in it hereunder or
thereunder unless and until such Agent shall have received instructions in
respect thereof from the Requisite Lenders (or such other the Lenders as may be
required to give such instructions under Section 9.6) and, upon receipt of such
instructions from the Requisite Lenders (or such other Lenders, as the case may
be), such Agent shall be entitled to act or (where so instructed) refrain from
acting, or to exercise such power, discretion or authority, in accordance with
such instructions.  Without prejudice to
the generality of the foregoing, (i) each of Agent shall be entitled to rely,
and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any communication, instrument or
document believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or
sent by the proper Person or Persons, and shall be entitled to rely and shall
be protected in relying on opinions and judgments of attorneys (who may be
attorneys for the Credit Parties and their Subsidiaries), accountants, experts and
other professional advisors selected by it; and (ii) no Lender shall have any
right of action whatsoever against any Agent as a result of such Agent acting
or (where so instructed) refraining from acting under this Agreement or any of
the other Loan Documents in accordance with the instructions of the Requisite
Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required to give such instructions
under Section 9.6).

D.                                    Agents Entitled to Act as
Lenders.  The agency hereby created shall in no way
impair or affect any of the rights and powers of, or impose any duties or
obligations upon, any

 92
 

Agent in its individual capacity as a Lender hereunder.  With respect to its participation in the
Loans and the Letters of Credit, each Agent shall have the same rights and powers
hereunder as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not
performing the duties and functions delegated to it hereunder, and the term
“Lender” shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include each
Agent in its individual capacity.  Any
Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own
Securities of, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial
advisory or other business with the Credit Parties or any of their Affiliates
as if it were not performing the duties specified herein, and may accept fees
and other consideration from the Credit Parties for services in connection with
this Agreement and otherwise without having to account for the same to Lenders.  No Agent shall have any duty to disclose any
information obtained or received by it or any of its Affiliates relating to the
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries to the extent such information was obtained
or received in any capacity other than as an Agent under this Agreement.  In the event that Citicorp or any of its
Affiliates shall be or become an indenture trustee under the Trust Indenture
Act of 1939 (as amended, the “Trust Indenture Act”)
in respect of any securities issued or guaranteed by the Borrower, the parties
hereto acknowledge and agree that any payment or property received in
satisfaction of or in respect of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder or
under any other Loan Document by or on behalf of Citicorp in its capacity as
the Administrative Agent for the benefit of any Lender under this Agreement or
any Note (other than Citicorp or an Affiliate of Citicorp) and which is applied
in accordance with this Agreement shall be deemed to be exempt from the
requirements of Section 311 of the Trust Indenture Act pursuant to Section
311(b)(3) of the Trust Indenture Act.

10.3                        Representations
and Warranties; No Responsibility For Appraisal of Creditworthiness.

Each
Lender represents and warrants that it has made its own independent
investigation of the financial condition and affairs of the Credit Parties and
their Subsidiaries in connection with the making of the Loans hereunder and
that it has made and shall continue to make its own appraisal of the
creditworthiness of the Credit Parties and their Subsidiaries.  No Agent shall have any duty or
responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to make any such
investigation or any such appraisal on behalf of the Lenders or to provide any
Lender with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether
coming into its possession before the making of the Loans or at any time or
times thereafter, and no Agent shall have any responsibility with respect to
the accuracy of or the completeness of any information provided to the Lenders.

10.4                        Right
to Indemnity.

Each
Lender, in proportion to its Pro Rata Share, severally agrees to indemnify each
Agent, to the extent that such Agent shall not have been reimbursed by the
Credit Parties to the full extent required by this Agreement or any other Loan
Document, for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses,
damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses (including
counsel fees and disbursements) or disbursements of any kind or nature
whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent
in exercising its powers, rights and remedies or performing its duties
hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or otherwise in its capacity as
such Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or

 93
 

the other Loan
Documents; provided that (a) no Lender shall be liable for any portion
of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions,
judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from such Agent’s
gross negligence or willful misconduct and (b) no Lender shall be liable for
the payment of any portion of an Indemnified Liability pursuant to this Section
10.4 unless such Indemnified Liability was incurred by such Agent in its
capacity as such or by another Person acting for such Agent in such capacity.  If any indemnity furnished to any Agent for
any purpose shall, in the opinion of such Agent, be insufficient or become
impaired, such Agent may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not
commence, to do the acts indemnified against until such additional indemnity is
furnished.

10.5                        Successor
Administrative Agent.

The
Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving thirty (30) days’ prior
written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Credit Parties, and the
Administrative Agent may be removed at any time with or without cause by an
instrument or concurrent instruments in writing delivered to the Credit Parties
and the Administrative Agent and signed by the Requisite Lenders.  Upon any such notice of resignation or any
such removal, the Requisite Lenders shall have the right, with, so long as no
Potential Event of Default or Event of Default exists, the consent of the
Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), upon
five (5) Business Days’ notice to the Credit Parties, to select a successor
Administrative Agent.  Upon the
acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor
Administrative Agent, that successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon
succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties
of the retiring or removed Administrative Agent and the retiring or removed
Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under
this Agreement.  After any retiring or
removed Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as
Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 10 shall inure to its
benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the
Administrative Agent under this Agreement.

10.6                        Agents
Under Guaranty.

Each
Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent on behalf of and for the
benefit of the Lenders, to be the agent for and representative of the Lenders
with respect to the Guaranty.

10.7                        Acknowledgment
of Potential Related Transactions.

The
Credit Parties hereby acknowledge their understanding that each of the Lead
Arrangers, each of the Agents and each of the Lenders may from time to time
effect transactions (for its own account or the account of customers), and hold
positions in loans or options on loans that may be the subject of this
arrangement.  In addition, certain
Affiliates of the Lenders are full service securities firms and as such may
from time to time effect transactions (for its own account or the account of
customers), and hold positions, in loans or options on loans or securities or
options on securities that may be the subject of this arrangement.  In addition, each of the Lead Arrangers, each
of the Agents and each of the Lenders may employ the services of its Affiliates
in providing certain services hereunder and may, subject to Section 9.18,
exchange with such Affiliates information concerning the Credit Parties and
other companies that may be the subject of this arrangement.

or more favorable written opinions of (x) special New York counsel for such
Subsidiary Borrower and (y) counsel for such Subsidiary Borrower in the
jurisdiction of its organization and (ii) any additional legal opinions
reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, each in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and its counsel, dated as
of the Joinder Date.

E.                                      Payment of Amounts Due.  The
Subsidiary Borrower requesting such Loan shall have paid to the Administrative
Agent all reasonable out-of-pocket costs, fees and expenses (including
reasonable legal fees and expenses of a single U.S. counsel and of a single
counsel in the jurisdiction of organization of such Subsidiary Borrower)
incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the negotiation,
preparation and execution of a Joinder Agreement and the transactions
contemplated by the joinder of such Subsidiary Borrower as a Credit Party
hereunder.

F.                                      Authorizations and Consents.

(i)                                     The Subsidiary Borrower requesting such Loan
shall have obtained all Governmental Authorizations and all consents of other
Persons, in each case that are necessary in connection with the transactions
contemplated by the Loan Documents, and each of the foregoing shall be in full
force and effect and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders. 
All applicable waiting periods shall have expired without any action
being taken or threatened by any competent authority which would restrain,
prevent or otherwise impose material adverse conditions on the transactions
contemplated by the Loan Documents or the financing thereof and no action, request
for stay, petition for review or rehearing, reconsideration, or appeal with
respect to any of the foregoing shall be pending, and the time for any
applicable agency to take action to set aside its consent on its own motion
shall have expired.

(ii)                                  Each of the Lenders shall have received, at
least two (2) Business Days in advance of the Effective Date, all documentation
and other information required by Governmental Authorities under applicable
“know-your-customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including
as required by the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate
Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism (USA PATRIOT ACT) Act of
2001.

11.2                        Termination
of Status as Subsidiary Borrower

The
Borrower may, at any time that any Subsidiary Borrower has no outstanding Loans
(and no requests for Loans) hereunder, terminate such Subsidiary’s status as a
Subsidiary

 96
 

Borrower by notice
to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly advise each Lender).  Upon receipt of such notice by the
Administrative Agent, such Subsidiary shall cease to be a Subsidiary Borrower
(and may not become a Subsidiary Borrower again without satisfaction of the
requirements set forth in Section 11.1).

For
purposes of this definition, the Performance Level shall be determined by the
applicable public debt rating for the Borrower as follows:  (i) the public debt ratings shall be

as the case may be, for any class of non-credit-enhanced long-term senior

shall have in effect such a public debt rating, the Performance Level shall be
determined by reference to the applicable rating; (iii) if neither S&P nor
Moody’s shall have in effect such a public debt rating, the applicable
Performance Level will be Level V; (iv) if such public debt ratings established
by S&P and Moody’s shall fall within different levels, the public debt
rating will be determined by the higher of the two ratings, provided
that, in the event that the lower of such public debt ratings is more than one
level below the higher of such public debt ratings, the public debt rating will
be determined based upon the level that is one level above the lower of such
public debt ratings; (v) if any such public debt rating established by S&P
or Moody’s shall be changed, such change shall be effective as of the date on
which such change is first announced publicly by the rating agency making such
change; and (vi) if S&P or Moody’s shall change the basis on which such
public debt ratings are established, each reference to the public debt rating
announced by S&P or Moody’s, as the case may be, shall refer to the
then-equivalent rating by S&P or Moody’s, as the case may be.

“Applicable Reserve Requirement” means, at

regulator.  Without limiting the effect
of the foregoing, the Applicable Reserve Requirement shall reflect any other

any category of liabilities which includes deposits by reference to which the
applicable LIBOR rate is to be determined, or (ii) any category of extensions
of credit or other assets which include LIBOR Rate Loans.  For purposes hereof, a LIBOR Rate Loan shall
be deemed to constitute Eurocurrency liabilities and as such shall be deemed

exceptions or offsets that may be available from time to time to the applicable

Lender shall be paid in full on the Maturity Date.

2.3                               Pro
Rata Shares; Availability of Funds.

A.                                    Pro
Rata Shares.  The Loans shall be made
by the Lenders simultaneously and proportionately to their respective Pro Rata
Shares (determined as of the Credit Date), it being understood that no Lender
shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender in such other Lender’s
obligation to make its Loan hereunder nor shall any Commitment of any Lender be
increased or decreased as a result of a default by any other Lender in such
other Lender’s obligation to make its Loan hereunder.

B.                                    Availability
of Funds.  Unless the Administrative
Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to the Credit Date that such
Lender does not intend to make available to the Administrative Agent the amount
of such Lender’s Loan requested on the Credit Date, the Administrative Agent
may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to the
Administrative Agent on the Credit Date and the Administrative Agent may, in
its sole discretion, but shall not be obligated to, make available to the
Borrower a corresponding amount on the Credit Date.  If such corresponding amount is not in fact
made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender or an Affiliate of
such Lender, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such
corresponding amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon,
for each day from the Credit Date until the date such amount is paid to the
Administrative Agent, at the customary rate set by the Administrative Agent for
the correction of errors among banks for three Business Days and thereafter at
the Base Rate.  If such Lender does not
pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent’s demand
therefor, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the
Borrower shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to the Administrative
Agent together with interest thereon, for each day from the Credit Date until
the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent, at the rate payable
hereunder for Base Rate Loans.  Nothing
in this Section 2.3B shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation
to fulfill its Commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights that the
Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender
hereunder.

2.4                               The
Register; Evidence of Debt; Notes.

A.                                    Register.

(i)                                     The
Administrative Agent shall maintain at its Payment and Funding Office a
register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the
Commitment and Loan of each Lender from time to time (the “Register”). 
The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any
Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior
notice.  The Administrative Agent shall
record in the Register the Commitment and the Loan of each Lender, and each
repayment or prepayment in respect of the principal amount of such Loans.  Any such recordation shall be prima facie
evidence of the

 22
 

amount owed to such Lender hereunder; provided that failure to
make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect
any Lender’s Commitment or the Obligations in respect of any Loan.  The Borrower hereby designates Citibank to
serve as the Borrower’s agent solely for purposes of maintaining the Register
as provided in this Section 2.4, and the Borrower hereby agrees that, to the
extent Citibank serves in such capacity, Citibank and its officers, directors,
employees, agents and affiliates shall constitute “Indemnitees” hereunder.

(ii)                                  The
Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall deem and treat the
Persons listed as Lenders in the Register as the holders and owners of the
corresponding Commitments and Loans listed therein for all purposes hereof, and
no assignment or transfer of any Commitment or Loan shall be effective, in each
case unless and until an Assignment Agreement effecting the assignment or
transfer thereof shall have been accepted by the Administrative Agent and
recorded in the Register as provided in Section 8.1C.  Prior to such recordation, all amounts owed
with respect to the applicable Commitment or Loan shall be owed to the Lender
listed in the Register as the owner thereof, and any request, authority or
consent of any Person who, at the time of making such request or giving such
authority or consent, is listed in the Register as a Lender shall be conclusive
and binding on any subsequent holder, assignee or transferee of the
corresponding Commitments or Loans.

B.                                    Lenders’
Evidence of Debt.  Each Lender shall
maintain on its internal records an account or accounts evidencing the
Obligations of the Borrower to such Lender, including the amounts of the Loans
made by it and each repayment and prepayment in respect thereof.  Any such recordation shall be conclusive and
binding on the Borrower, absent manifest error; provided that the
failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall
not affect any Lender’s Commitments or the Obligations of the Borrower in
respect of any applicable Loans; and provided further, in the event of
any inconsistency between the Register and any Lender’s records, the
recordations in the Register shall govern.

C.                                    Notes.  If so requested by any Lender by written
notice to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower
shall execute and deliver to such Lender, promptly after the Borrower’s receipt
of such notice, a Note or Notes to evidence such Lender’s Loans.

2.5                               Interest
on the Loans.

A.                                    Rate

provisions of Sections 2.5E, 2.8 and 2.9, each Loan shall bear interest on the
unpaid principal amount thereof from the date made through the Maturity Date
(whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate equal to (a) at all times such
Loan is a Base Rate Loan, the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin or
(b) at all times such Loan is a LIBOR Rate Loan, the sum of LIBOR plus the
Applicable Margin.

(ii)                                  The basis for
determining the rate of interest with respect to any Loan, and the Interest
Period with respect to any LIBOR Rate Loan, shall be selected by the Borrower
and notified to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders pursuant to the Notice
of Borrowing or a Conversion/Continuation Notice, as the case may be.

 23
 

(iii)                               As soon as practicable
after 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on each Interest Rate Determination Date,
the Administrative Agent shall determine (which determination shall, absent
manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding upon all parties) the interest
rate that shall apply to the LIBOR Rate Loans for which an interest rate is
then being determined for the applicable Interest Period and shall promptly
give notice thereof (in writing or by telephone confirmed in writing) to the
Borrower and each Lender.

B.                                    Interest
Periods.  The applicable interest
period (each an “Interest Period”)
of each Borrowing of LIBOR Rate Loans shall be a one (1), two (2), three (3) or
six (6) month period, as selected by the Borrower in the applicable Notice of
Borrowing or Conversion/Continuation Notice, initially commencing on the date
of the Loan or any Conversion/Continuation Date, as the case may be; provided
that

(i)                                     in
the case of immediately successive Interest Periods applicable to LIBOR Rate
Loans, each successive Interest Period shall commence on the day on which the
immediately preceding Interest Period expires;

(ii)                                  if
an Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day that is not a Business Day,
such Interest Period shall expire on the next succeeding Business Day; provided
that, if any Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day that is not a
Business Day but is a day of the month after which no further Business Day
occurs in such month, such Interest Period shall expire on the immediately
preceding Business Day;

(iii)                               any
Interest Period that begins on the last Business Day of a calendar month (or on
a day for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar month
at the end of such Interest Period) shall, subject to clause (iv) of this
Section 2.5B, end on the last Business Day of a calendar month;

(iv)                              no
Interest Period shall extend beyond the Maturity Date;

(v)                                 no
more than ten (10) Interest Periods shall be outstanding at any time;

(vi)                              subject
to clause (vii) of this Section 2.5B, if the Borrower fails to specify an
Interest Period for any Borrowing of LIBOR Rate Loans in the applicable
Conversion/Continuation Notice or fails to give timely notice of the
continuation of any outstanding Borrowing of LIBOR Rate Loans, the Borrower
shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one (1) month; and

(vii)                           until
the earlier of (x) the date that is 30 days after the Effective Date and (y)
the date that the Lead Arrangers notify the Borrower that the primary
syndication of the Loans has been completed, all LIBOR Rate Loans shall have an
Interest Period of one (1) week, if one week Interest Periods are available
from all Lenders or, if one week Interest Periods are not available from all
Lenders, all Loans shall be Base Rate Loans during such period.

C.                                    Interest
Payments.  On each Interest Payment
Date for a Loan, the Borrower shall pay an amount equal to the aggregate amount
of interest that has accrued on such Loan since the Effective Date or the last
Interest Payment Date for such Loan, as applicable.  In

 24
 

addition, interest on each Loan shall be payable upon any prepayment of
such Loan (to the extent accrued on the amount being prepaid) and at maturity.

D.                                    Default
Rate.  Upon the occurrence and during
the continuation of any Event of Default, (i) the Borrower shall no longer have
the option to continue or convert into LIBOR Rate Loans, (ii) each LIBOR Rate
Loan shall convert to a Base Rate Loan at the end of the Interest Period then
in effect for such LIBOR Rate Loan, (iii) upon request of the Requisite
Lenders, the outstanding principal amounts of all LIBOR Rate Loans shall bear
interest (including post-petition interest in any case or proceeding under the
Bankruptcy Code) at a rate per annum equal to two percent (2%) plus the rate
then applicable to LIBOR Rate Loans until the end of the applicable Interest
Period and thereafter at a rate equal to two percent (2%) plus the rate then
applicable to Base Rate Loans, and (iv) upon request of the Requisite Lenders,
all outstanding Base Rate Loans and, to the extent permitted by applicable law,
other Obligations arising hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall bear
interest (including post-petition interest in any case or proceeding under the
Bankruptcy Code) at a rate per annum equal to two percent (2%) plus the rate
then applicable to such Base Rate Loans or such other Obligations arising
hereunder or under any other Loan Document. 
Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Potential Event
of Default under Section 7.13, (i) the outstanding principal amounts of all
LIBOR Rate Loans shall bear interest (including post-petition interest in any
case or proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code) at a rate per annum equal to two
percent (2%) plus the rate then applicable to LIBOR Rate Loans until the end of
the applicable Interest Period and thereafter at a rate equal to two percent
(2%) plus the rate then applicable to Base Rate Loans, and (ii) all outstanding
Base Rate Loans and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, other
Obligations arising hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall bear
interest (including post-petition interest in any case or proceeding under the
Bankruptcy Code) at a rate per annum equal to two percent (2%) plus the rate
then applicable to such Base Rate Loans or such other Obligations arising
hereunder or under any other Loan Document. 
Payment or acceptance of the increased rates of interest provided for in
this Section 2.5D is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall
not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or Potential Event of Default
or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of Agents or Lenders.

E.                                      Computation
of Interest.  Interest payable
pursuant to Section 2.5A shall be computed (i) in the case of Base Rate Loans,
on the basis of a 365 day or 366 day year, as the case may be, and (ii) in the
case of LIBOR Rate Loans, on the basis of a 360 day year, in each case for the
actual number of days elapsed in the period during which it accrues.  In computing interest on any Loan, the date
of the making of such Loan or the first day of an Interest Period applicable to
such Loan or, with respect to a Base Rate Loan being converted from a LIBOR
Rate Loan, the date of conversion of such LIBOR Rate Loan to such Base Rate
Loan, as the case may be, shall be included, and the date of payment of such
Loan or the expiration date of an Interest Period applicable to such Loan or,
with respect to a Base Rate Loan being converted to a LIBOR Rate Loan, the date
of conversion of such Base Rate Loan to such LIBOR Rate Loan, as the case may
be, shall be excluded; provided, if a Loan is repaid on the same day on
which it is made, one day’s interest shall be paid on that Loan.

 25
 

F.                                      Conversion/Continuation.

(i)                                     Subject
to Section 2.9 and so long as no Potential Event of Default or Event of Default
shall have occurred and then be continuing, the Borrower shall have the option:

(a)                                  to
convert at any time all or any part of any Borrowing in an aggregate amount of
$5,000,000 or a higher integral multiple of $1,000,000 from one Type of Loan to
another Type of Loan; provided if any LIBOR Rate Loan is converted on a
day other than the last day of an Interest Period therefor, the Borrower shall
pay all amounts due under Section 2.8 in connection with such conversion; or

(b)                                 upon
the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to any Borrowing LIBOR Rate Loans,
to continue all or any portion of such Borrowing for a new Interest Period in a
minimum amount of $5,000,000.

(ii)                                  The
Borrower shall deliver a Conversion/Continuation Notice to the Administrative
Agent no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) at least one Business Day
in advance of the proposed conversion date (in the case of a conversion to Base
Rate Loans) and at least three Business Days in advance of the proposed
Conversion/Continuation Date (in the case of a conversion to, or a continuation
of, LIBOR Rate Loans).  Except as
otherwise provided herein, a Conversion/Continuation Notice for conversion to,
or continuation of, LIBOR Rate Loans (or telephonic notice in lieu thereof)
shall be irrevocable on and after the related Interest Rate Determination Date,
and the Borrower shall be bound to effect a conversion or continuation in
accordance therewith.

G.                                    Additional
Interest on LIBOR Rate Loans.  The
Borrower shall pay to each Lender, so long as and to the extent such Lender
shall be required under regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal
Reserve System to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets
consisting of or including “Eurocurrency liabilities” (as such term is defined
in Regulation D), additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each
LIBOR Rate Loan of such Lender, from the date of such Loan until such principal
amount is paid in full, at an interest rate per annum equal at all times to the
remainder obtained by subtracting (a) the LIBOR rate for the applicable
Interest Period for such Loan from (b) the rate obtained by dividing such LIBOR
rate by a percentage equal to 100% minus the Applicable Reserve Requirement
(expressed as a percentage) of such Lender for such Interest Period, payable on
each date on which interest is payable on such Loan.  Such Lender shall as soon as practicable
provide notice to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower of any such
additional interest arising in connection with such Loan, which notice shall be
conclusive and binding, absent demonstrable error.

2.6                               Fees.

(i)                                     Commitment
Fee:  The Borrower agrees to pay to
each Lender, for the period from the Effective Date until the Credit Date, a
commitment fee (the “Commitment Fee”)
on such Lender’s then current unused Commitment, determined by reference to the
pricing grid set forth in the definition of Applicable Margin.  The Commitment Fee shall be paid quarterly in
arrears and on the Credit Date or the date of the termination of the Commitments
to the Administrative Agent at its Funding and Payment Office and upon receipt,
the Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to each Lender its Pro Rata
Share thereof.  The Commitment Fee shall
be calculated on the basis of a 360 day year and the actual number of days
elapsed.

 26
 

(ii)                                  Lead
Arrangers’ Fees.  In addition to the
foregoing fees, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Lead Arrangers and the Agents
such other fees in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon in the
Fee Letters.

2.7                               Provisions
Regarding Payments.

A.                                    Voluntary
Prepayments.

(i)                                     Any
time and from time to time:

(a)                                  the
Borrower may prepay any Borrowing of Base Rate Loans on any Business Day in
whole or in part, in an aggregate principal amount of $5,000,000 or a higher
integral multiple of $1,000,000; and

(b)                                 the
Borrower may prepay any Borrowing of LIBOR Rate Loans on any Business Day in
whole or in part in an aggregate principal amount of $5,000,000.

(ii)                                  All
prepayments shall be made upon prior written or telephonic notice received by
the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time):

(a)                             In the case of Base Rate Loans, on
the date of such prepayment; and

(b)                            In the case of LIBOR Rate Loans, two
(2) Business Days’ prior to the date of such prepayment;

and, if such notice is given by telephone, such notice
shall be promptly confirmed in writing to the Administrative Agent (and the
Administrative Agent will promptly transmit such telephonic or original notice
for the Loans by facsimile or telephone to each Lender).  Upon the giving of any such notice, the
principal amount of the Loans specified in such notice shall become due and
payable on the prepayment date specified therein.  Each prepayment under this Section 2.7A shall
be applied ratably to the remaining installments of the Loans.

B.                                    Voluntary
Commitment Reductions.

(i)                                     The
Borrower may, upon not less than three (3) Business Days’ prior written or
telephonic notice confirmed in writing to the Administrative Agent (which
original written or telephonic notice the Administrative Agent will promptly
transmit by facsimile or telephone to each Lender), at any time and from time
to time terminate in whole or permanently reduce in part, without premium or
penalty, the unused Commitments; provided any such partial reduction of
the Commitments shall be in the amount of $5,000,000 or a higher integral
multiple of $1,000,000.

(ii)                                  The
Borrower’s notice to the Administrative Agent shall designate the date (which
shall be a Business Day) of such termination or reduction and the amount of any
partial reduction, and such termination or reduction of the Commitments shall
be effective on the date specified in the Borrower’s notice and shall reduce
the Commitment of each Lender proportionately to its Pro Rata Share thereof.

 27
 

C.                                    Mandatory Prepayments. 
(i)  The Borrower shall, on the
date and in the amount of the receipt by the Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries as to which the transfer of funds to the Borrower would not result
in adverse tax consequences of Net Cash Proceeds from any Asset Sale (other
than the Net Cash Proceeds of the Divestiture in an amount not to exceed
$12,000,000 and other than to the extent that (x) the Net Cash Proceeds of such
Asset Sale are less than $1,000,000 for any single transaction or series of
related transactions or (y) the Net Cash Proceeds of all Asset Sales after the
date hereof are less than $30,000,000 in the aggregate), repay the Loans in an
aggregate amount equal to the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds (rounded
downward to the nearest $5,000,000 increment, with such rounded amount applied
in accordance with the proviso to this Section 2.7.C.(i)); provided, that,
if the Borrower has previously made a mandatory prepayment of Loans in
accordance with this Section 2.7.C.(i), no further mandatory prepayment shall
be required until the amount of Net Cash Proceeds of the nature described above
again exceed $5,000,000.

(ii)                                  If the Bridge Loans have been, or
substantially contemporaneously with the receipt of Net Cash Proceeds as
described in this paragraph (ii) will be, repaid or prepaid in full, the
Borrower shall, on the date and in the amount of the receipt by the Borrower or
any of its Subsidiaries of Net Cash Proceeds from (a) the incurrence or
issuance of debt (including pursuant to a public offering, a private placement
or a syndicated bank financing (other than borrowings under the Borrower’s
Credit Agreement dated as of December 16, 2005 with the lenders parties thereto
and CNAI, as administrative agent, not used directly or indirectly to finance
the Mayne Pharma Acquisition) or (b) the issuance of equity or equity-linked
transactions in the capital markets, repay the Loans in an aggregate amount
equal to the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds that are not used by the Borrower
to prepay the Bridge Loans.

(iii)                               Each prepayment pursuant to this Subsection
2.7C shall be applied ratably to the remaining installments of the Loans.

D.                                    Application of Prepayments/Reductions.  Unless otherwise
specified by the Borrower in a notice of prepayment,

(a) any
amount to be applied pursuant to Section 2.7A or C shall be applied to prepay
Loans to the full extent thereof.

(b)
considering each Type of Loan being prepaid separately, any prepayment thereof
shall be applied first to Base Rate Loans to the full extent thereof before
application to LIBOR Rate Loans, in each case in a manner which minimizes the
amount of any payments required to be made by the Borrower pursuant to Section
2.9C.

E.                                      General
Provisions Regarding Payments.

(i)                                     Manner
and Time of Payment.  All payments by
the Borrower of principal, interest, fees and other Obligations shall be made
in Dollars in same day funds, without defense, set-off or counterclaim, free of
any restriction or condition, and delivered to the Administrative Agent not
later than 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date due at the Funding and
Payment Office for the account of the Lenders; funds received by the

 28
 

Administrative Agent after that time on such due date shall be deemed
to have been paid by the Borrower on the next succeeding Business Day.

(ii)                                  Payments
on Business Days.  Subject to the
provisions of Section 2.5B with respect to Interest Periods, whenever any
payment to be made hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a
Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day
and such extension of time shall be included in the computation of the payment
of interest hereunder.

(iii)                               Application
of Payments to Principal and Interest. 
All payments in respect of the principal amount of the Loans shall
include payment of accrued interest on the principal amount being repaid or
prepaid, and all such payments shall be applied to the payment of interest
before application to principal.

(iv)                              Distribution
to Lenders.  The Administrative Agent
shall promptly distribute to each Lender at such address as such Lender shall
indicate in writing, such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of all payments and
prepayments of principal and interest due hereunder, together with all other
amounts due thereto, including all fees payable with respect thereto, to the
extent received by Administrative Agent.

(v)                                 Withdrawal
of Notice.  Notwithstanding the
foregoing provisions hereof, if any Conversion/Continuation Notice is withdrawn
as to any Affected Lender or if any Affected Lender makes Base Rate Loans in lieu
of its Pro Rata Share of any LIBOR Rate Loans, the Administrative Agent shall
give effect thereto in apportioning payments received thereafter.

(vi)                              Authorization
to Charge Accounts.  The Borrower
hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to charge the Borrower’s accounts
with the Administrative Agent in order to cause timely payment to be made to
the Administrative Agent of all principal, interest, fees and expenses due
hereunder (subject to sufficient funds being available in its accounts for that
purpose).

(vii)                           Non-Conforming
Payments.  The Administrative Agent
shall deem any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower hereunder that is not
made in same day funds prior to 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) to be a
non-conforming payment.  Any such payment
shall not be deemed to have been received by the Administrative Agent until the
later of (i) the time such funds become available funds, and (ii) the
applicable next Business Day.  The
Administrative Agent shall give prompt telephonic notice to the Borrower and
each Lender (confirmed in writing) if any payment is non-conforming.  Any non-conforming payment may constitute or
become a Potential Event of Default or Event of Default in accordance with the
terms of Section 7.1.  Interest shall
continue to accrue on any principal as to which a non-conforming payment is
made until such funds become available funds (but in no event less than the
period from the date of such payment to the next succeeding applicable Business
Day) at the rate determined pursuant to Section 2.5D from the date such amount
was due and payable until the date such amount is paid in full.

 29
 

2.8                               Increased
Costs; Taxes.

A.                                    Compensation
for Increased Costs and Taxes. 
Subject to the provisions of Section 2.8B (which shall be controlling
with respect to the matters covered thereby), in the event that any Lender
shall determine (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and
conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) that any law, treaty or
governmental rule, regulation or order, or any change therein or in the
interpretation, administration or application thereof (including the
introduction of any new law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order),
or any determination of a court or Governmental Authority, in each case that
becomes effective after the date hereof, or compliance by such Lender with any
guideline, request or directive issued or made after the date hereof by any
central bank or other governmental or quasi-governmental authority (whether or
not having the force of law):

(i)                                     subjects
such Lender (or its applicable lending office) to any additional Tax (other
than any Tax on the overall net income of such Lender) with respect to this
Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or any of its obligations hereunder
or thereunder or any payments to such Lender (or its applicable lending office)
of principal, interest, fees or any other amount payable hereunder;

(ii)                                  imposes,
modifies or holds applicable any reserve (including any marginal, emergency,
supplemental, special or other reserve), special deposit, compulsory loan,
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance or similar requirement against
assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, or
advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of
funds by, any office of such Lender (other than any such reserve or other
requirements with respect to LIBOR Rate Loans that are reflected in the
definition of LIBOR); or

(iii)                               imposes
any other condition (other than with respect to a Tax matter) on or affecting
such Lender (or its applicable lending office) or its obligations hereunder or
the London interbank market;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such
Lender of agreeing to make, making or maintaining Loans hereunder or to reduce
any amount received or receivable by such Lender (or its applicable lending
office) with respect thereto; then, in any such case, the Borrower shall
promptly pay to such Lender, upon receipt of the statement referred to in the
next sentence, such additional amount or amounts (in the form of an increased
rate of, or a different method of calculating, interest or otherwise as such
Lender in its sole discretion shall determine) as may be necessary to compensate
such Lender for any such increased cost or reduction in amounts received or
receivable hereunder.  Such Lender shall
deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) a written
statement, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for, and a calculation
in reasonable detail of, the additional amounts owed to such Lender under this
Section 2.8A, which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties
hereto absent manifest error.

 30
 

B.                                    Withholding
of Taxes.

(i)                                     Payments
to Be Free and Clear.  All sums
payable by the Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall
(except to the extent required by law) be paid free and clear of, and without
any deduction or withholding on account of, any Tax (other than a Tax on the overall
net income of any Lender) imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by
or within the United States of America or any political subdivision in or of
the United States of America or any other jurisdiction from or to which a
payment is made by or on behalf of the Borrower or by any federation or
organization of which the United States of America or any such jurisdiction is
a member at the time of payment.

(ii)                                  Grossing-up
of Payments.  If the Borrower or any
other Person is required by law to make any deduction or withholding on account
of any such Tax from any sum paid or payable by the Borrower to the
Administrative Agent or any Lender under any of the Loan Documents:

(a)                                  the
Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any such requirement or any
change in any such requirement as soon as the Borrower becomes aware of it;

(b)                                 the
Borrower shall pay any such Tax before the date on which penalties attach
thereto, such payment to be made (if the liability to pay is imposed on the
Borrower) for its own account or (if that liability is imposed on the
Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be) on behalf of and in
the name of the Administrative Agent or such Lender;

(c)                                  the
sum payable by the Borrower in respect of which the relevant deduction,
withholding or payment is required shall be increased to the extent necessary
to ensure that, after the making of that deduction, withholding or payment, the
Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, receives on the due
date and retains a net sum equal to what it would have received and retained
had no such deduction, withholding or payment been required or made; and

(d)                                 within
thirty (30) days after paying any sum from which it is required by law to make
any deduction or withholding, and within thirty (30) days after the due date of
payment of any Tax which it is required by clause (b) above to pay, the
Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent evidence reasonably
satisfactory to the other affected parties of such deduction, withholding or
payment and of the remittance thereof to the relevant taxing or other
authority.

(iii)                               Evidence
of Exemption from U.S. Withholding Tax.

(a)                                  Each
Lender that is not a United States Person (as such term is defined in Section
7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code) for U.S. federal income tax purposes
(a “Non-US Lender”) shall deliver
to the Administrative Agent for transmission to the Borrower, on or prior to
the Effective Date (in the case of each Lender listed on the signature pages
hereof on the Effective Date) or on or prior to the date of the Assignment
Agreement pursuant to which it becomes a Lender (in the case of each other
Lender), and at such other times as may be necessary in the determination of
the Borrower or Administrative Agent (each in the reasonable exercise of its
discretion), (x) two original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form

 31
 

W-8BEN or W-8ECI (or any successor forms), properly completed and duly
executed by such Lender, and such other documentation required under the
Internal Revenue Code or reasonably requested by the Borrower to establish that
such Lender is not subject to deduction or withholding of United States federal
income tax with respect to any payments to such Lender of principal, interest,
fees or other amounts payable under any of the Loan Documents.

(b)                                 Each
Lender required to deliver any forms, certificates or other evidence with
respect to United States federal income tax withholding matters pursuant to
Section 2.8B(iii)(a) hereby agrees, from time to time after the initial
delivery by such Lender of such forms, certificates or other evidence, whenever
a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders such forms, certificates or
other evidence obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, that such Lender
shall promptly (1) deliver to Administrative Agent for transmission to the
Borrower two new original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or
W-8ECI, or a Certificate re Non-Bank Status and two (2) original copies of
Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (or any successor form), as the case may
be, properly completed and duly executed by such Lender, and such other
documentation required under the Internal Revenue Code and reasonably requested
by the Borrower to confirm or establish that such Lender is not subject to
deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax with respect to
payments to such Lender under the Loan Documents or (2) notify Administrative
Agent and the Borrower of its inability to deliver any such forms, certificates
or other evidence.

(c)                                  The
Borrower shall not be required to pay any additional amount to any Non-US
Lender under clause (c) of Section 2.8B(ii) if such Lender shall have failed to
satisfy the requirements of clause (a) or (b)(1) of this Section 2.8B(iii); provided
that if such Lender shall have satisfied the requirements of Section
2.8B(iii)(a) on the Effective Date or on the date of the Assignment Agreement
pursuant to which it became a Lender, as applicable, nothing in this Section
2.8B(iii)(c) shall relieve the Borrower of its obligation to pay any additional
amounts pursuant to clause (c) of Section 2.8B(ii) in the event that, as a
result of any change in any applicable law, treaty or governmental rule,
regulation or order, or any change in the interpretation, administration or
application thereof, such Lender is no longer properly entitled to deliver
forms, certificates or other evidence at a subsequent date establishing the
fact that such Lender is not subject to withholding as described herein.

(iv)                              If
a payment is made by the Borrower under the foregoing provisions of this
Section 2.8(B) for the account of any Lender and such Lender, in its sole
opinion, determines that it has irrevocably received or been granted a credit
against, or relief or remission from, or repayment or refund of, any tax paid
or payable by it in respect of or calculated with reference to the deduction or
withholding giving rise to such additional payment, such Lender shall, to the
extent that it determines that it can do so without prejudice to the retention
of the amount of such credit, relief, remission or repayment, pay to the
Borrower such amount as such Lender shall, in its sole opinion, have determined
is attributable to such deduction or withholding and will leave such Lender
(after such payment) in no worse position than it would have been had the
Borrower not been required to make such deduction or withholding.  Nothing contained herein shall (i) interfere
with the right of a Lender to arrange its tax affairs in whatever manner it
thinks fit, (ii) oblige any Lender to disclose any information relating to its
tax affairs or any computations in respect thereof or (iii) require any Lender
to take or refrain from taking any

 32
 

action that would prejudice its ability to benefit from any other
credit, relief, remission, repayment or refund to which it may be entitled.

C.                                    Capital
Adequacy Adjustment.  In the event
that any Lender shall have determined that the adoption, effectiveness,
phase-in or applicability after the Effective Date of any law, rule or
regulation (or any provision thereof) regarding capital adequacy, or any change
therein after the Effective Date or in the interpretation or administration
thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged
with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by such Lender
(or its applicable lending office) with any guideline, request or directive
regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such
Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency issued after the
Effective Date, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on
the capital of such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender as a
consequence of, or with reference to, such Lender’s Loans or Commitment, or
participations therein or other obligations hereunder with respect to the Loans
to a level below that which such Lender or such controlling corporation could
have achieved but for such adoption, effectiveness, phase-in, applicability,
change or compliance (taking into consideration the policies of such Lender or
such controlling corporation with regard to capital adequacy), then from time
to time, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or
amounts as will compensate such Lender or such controlling corporation on an
after-tax basis for such reduction.  Such
Lender shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent)
a written statement, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for, and
calculation in reasonable detail of, the additional amounts owed to the Lender
under this Section 2.8C, which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon
all parties hereto absent manifest error.

2.9                               Special
Provisions Governing LIBOR Rate Loans.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary,
the following provisions shall govern with respect to LIBOR Rate Loans as to
the matters covered:

A.                                    Inability
to Determine Applicable Interest Rate. 
In the event that the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which
determination shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties
hereto), on any Interest Rate Determination Date with respect to any Borrowing
of LIBOR Rate Loans, that by reason of circumstances affecting the interbank
LIBOR market adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the interest
rate applicable to such Loans on the basis provided for in the definition of
LIBOR Rate, the Administrative Agent shall on such date give notice (by
facsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Borrower and each Lender
of such determination, whereupon (i) no Loans may be made as, or converted to,
LIBOR Rate Loans until such time as the Administrative Agent notifies the
Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no
longer exist, and (ii) any Notice of Borrowing or Conversion/Continuation
Notice given by the Borrower with respect to the Loans in respect of which such
determination was made shall be deemed to be rescinded by the Borrower.

B.                                    Illegality
or Impracticability of LIBOR Rate Loans. 
In the event that on any date any Lender shall have determined (which
determination shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto
but shall be made only after consultation with the Borrower and

 33
 

the Administrative Agent) that the making, maintaining or continuation
of its LIBOR Rate Loans (i) has become unlawful as a result of compliance by
such Lender in good faith with any law, treaty, governmental rule, regulation,
guideline or order (or would conflict with any such treaty, governmental rule,
regulation, guideline or order not having the force of law even though the
failure to comply therewith would not be unlawful) or (ii) has become
impracticable, or would cause such Lender material hardship, as a result of
contingencies occurring after the date of this Agreement which materially and
adversely affect the interbank LIBOR market or the position of such Lender in
that market, then, and in any such event, such Lender shall be an “Affected Lender” and it shall on that day
give notice (by facsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Borrower
and the Administrative Agent of such determination (which notice the
Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each other Lender).  Thereafter (a) such LIBOR Rate Loan
shall be Converted into a Base Rate Loan and (b) the obligation of the
Lenders to make LIBOR Rate Loans or to Convert Loans into LIBOR Rate Loans
shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and
the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist.

C.                                    Compensation
For Breakage.  The Borrower shall
compensate each Lender upon written request by such Lender (which request shall
set forth the basis for requesting such amounts and a calculation thereof in
reasonable detail) for all reasonable losses, expenses and liabilities
(including any interest paid by such Lender to lenders of funds borrowed by it
to make or carry its LIBOR Rate Loans and any loss, expense or liability
sustained by such Lender in connection with the liquidation or re-employment of
such funds, but excluding lost profits) which that Lender may sustain:  (i) if for any reason (other than a default
by such Lender) a LIBOR Rate Loan is not made on a date specified therefor in a
Notice of Borrowing or a telephonic request for borrowing, or a conversion to
or continuation of any LIBOR Rate Loan does not occur on a date specified
therefor in a Conversion/Continuation Notice or a telephonic request for conversion
or continuation, (ii) if any prepayment or other principal payment of, or any
conversion of, any of its LIBOR Rate Loans occurs on a date other than the last
day of an Interest Period applicable to such LIBOR Rate Loan or (iii) if any
prepayment of any LIBOR Rate Loan made by such Lender is not made on any date
specified in a notice of prepayment given by the Borrower.

D.                                    Booking
of LIBOR Rate Loans.  Any Lender may
make, carry or transfer LIBOR Rate Loans at, to, or for the account of any of
its branch offices or the office of an Affiliate of that Lender.

E.                                      Assumptions
Concerning Funding of LIBOR Rate Loans. 
Calculation of all amounts payable to a Lender under this Section 2.9
and under Section 2.8A shall be made as though that Lender had actually funded
each of its relevant LIBOR Rate Loans through the purchase of a LIBOR deposit
bearing interest at the rate obtained pursuant to the definition of LIBOR in an
amount equal to the amount of such LIBOR Rate Loan and having a maturity
comparable to the relevant Interest Period and through the transfer of such
LIBOR deposit from an offshore office of that Lender to a domestic office of
that Lender in the United States of America; provided, however,
that each Lender may fund each of its LIBOR Rate Loans in any manner it sees
fit and the foregoing assumptions shall be utilized only for the purposes of
calculating amounts payable under this Section 2.9 and under Section 2.8A and
2.8C.

 34

2.10                        Defaulting
Lenders.

Anything
contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that any Lender
defaults (a “Defaulting Lender”)
in its obligation to fund (a “Funding Default”)
its Loan (a “Defaulted Loan”),
then (a) during the Default Period with respect to such Defaulting Lender, such
Defaulting Lender shall be deemed not to be a “Lender” for purposes of voting
on any matters (including the granting of any consents or waivers) with respect
to any of the Loan Documents; (b) to the extent permitted by Applicable Law,
until such time as the Default Excess with respect to such Defaulting Lender
shall have been reduced to zero, (i) any voluntary prepayment of the Loans
shall, if the Borrower so directs at the time of making such voluntary prepayment,
be applied to the Loans of other Lenders as if such Defaulting Lender had no
Loan outstanding, and (ii) any mandatory prepayment of the Loans shall, if the
Borrower so directs at the time of making such mandatory prepayment, be applied
to the Loans of other Lenders (but not to the Loans of such Defaulting Lender)
as if such Defaulting Lender had funded the Defaulted Loan of such Defaulting
Lender, it being understood and agreed that the Borrower shall be entitled to
retain any portion of any mandatory prepayment of the Loans that is not paid to
such Defaulting Lender solely as a result of the operation of the provisions of
this clause (b); and (c) the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding
Loans as at any date of determination shall be calculated as if such Defaulting
Lender had funded the Defaulted Loan of such Defaulting Lender.  No Commitment of any Lender shall be
increased or otherwise affected, and, except as otherwise expressly provided in
this Section 2.10, performance by the Borrower of its Obligations shall not be
excused or otherwise modified as a result of any Funding Default or the
operation of this Section 2.10.  The
rights and remedies against a Defaulting Lender under this Section 2.10 are in
addition to other rights and remedies which the Borrower may have against such
Defaulting Lender with respect to any Funding Default and which the
Administrative Agent or any Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender with
respect to any Funding Default.

2.11                        Removal
or Replacement of a Lender.

Anything
contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that any Lender
shall give notice to the Borrower that such Lender is an Affected Lender or
that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under Section 2.8 or 2.9, if
the circumstances which have caused such Lender to be an Affected Lender or
which entitle such Lender to receive such payments shall remain in effect, and
such Lender shall fail to withdraw such notice within five (5) Business Days
after receipt by such Lender of a written request for such withdrawal from the
Borrower; then, with respect to each such Lender (the “Terminated Lender”), the Borrower may, by
giving written notice to the Administrative Agent and any Terminated Lender of
its election to do so, elect to cause such Terminated Lender (and such
Terminated Lender hereby irrevocably agrees) to assign its outstanding Loan in
full to one or more Eligible Assignees (each a “Replacement Lender”) in accordance with the provisions of
Section 8.1 for a purchase price equal to the outstanding principal amount of
the Loan assigned and accrued interest thereon through the date of assignment,
to be paid by the Replacement Lender; provided that concurrently with
such assignment, the Borrower shall pay any amounts payable to such Terminated
Lender to the date of such assignment pursuant to Sections 2.8 or 2.9 or
otherwise as if it were a prepayment. 
Upon the completion of such assignment and the prepayment of all amounts
owing to any Terminated Lender, such Terminated Lender shall no longer
constitute a

 35
 

“Lender” for
purposes hereof; provided that any rights of such Terminated Lender to
indemnification hereunder shall survive as to such Terminated Lender.

2.12                        Mitigation.

A.                                    Each
Lender agrees that, as promptly as practicable after the officer of such Lender
responsible for administering the Loan of such Lender becomes aware of the
occurrence of an event or the existence of a condition that would cause such
Lender to become an Affected Lender or that would entitle such Lender to
receive payments under Section 2.8 or 2.9, it will, to the extent not
inconsistent with the internal policies of such Lender and any applicable legal
or regulatory restrictions, use reasonable efforts (i) to make, issue, fund or
maintain the Commitment of such Lender or the Loan of such Lender through
another lending office of such Lender, or (ii) take such other measures as such
Lender may deem reasonable, if as a result thereof the circumstances which
would cause such Lender to be an Affected Lender would cease to exist or the
additional amounts which would otherwise be required to be paid to such Lender
pursuant to Section 2.8 or 2.9 would be materially reduced and if, as
determined by such Lender in its sole discretion, the making, issuing, funding or
maintaining of such Commitment or Loan through such other lending office or in
accordance with such other measures, as the case may be, would not otherwise
adversely affect such Commitment or Loan or the interests of such Lender; provided
that such Lender will not be obligated to utilize such other lending office
pursuant to this Section 2.12 unless the Borrower agrees to pay all incremental
expenses incurred by such Lender as a result of utilizing such other lending
office as described in clause (i) above. 
A certificate as to the amount of any such expenses payable by the
Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.12 (setting forth in reasonable detail the
basis for requesting such amount and a calculation thereof in reasonable
detail) submitted by such Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the
Administrative Agent) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

B.                                    Notwithstanding
the provisions of Section 2.8, if any Lender fails to notify the Borrower of
any event or circumstance which will entitle such Lender to compensation
pursuant to Section 2.8 within 365 days after such Lender obtains knowledge of
such event or circumstance, then such Lender shall not be entitled to
compensation from the Borrower for any amount arising prior to the date which
is 365 days before the date on which such Lender notifies the Borrower of such
event or circumstance.

SECTION 3.                            CONDITIONS

Precedent to each Loan.

The

Effective Date having occurred and the satisfaction of the following
conditions, which (except for the conditions that require effectiveness of the
Scheme and consummation of the Acquisition) shall be conclusively tested no
later than 8:00 a.m., Sydney time, on the Second Court Date (as defined in the
Implementation Agreement):

A.                                    Notice
of Borrowing.  The Administrative
Agent shall have received, in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.1B,

though made on and as of that date, except to the extent such representations
and warranties specifically relate to an earlier date, in which case such

all material respects on and as of such earlier date, (it being understood
that, notwithstanding that any representation or warranty contained herein with
respect to Mayne Pharma, its Subsidiaries or their businesses is not true,
correct and complete in all material respects on and as of the relevant date,
the Lenders shall be obligated to make their Loans unless the Borrower or the
relevant Subsidiary has the right to terminate its obligations under the
Implementation Agreement as a result of breach by Mayne Pharma of the
corresponding representation or warranty in the Implementation Agreement).

C.                                    No
Default.  No Event of Default or a
Potential Event of Default (excluding a Potential Event of Default under
Section 7.13) shall have occurred and be continuing, or would result from, the
Loans.

D.                                    Payment
of Amounts Due.  The Borrower shall

(including reasonable legal fees and expenses of a single U.S. counsel) and
other compensation payable on the date of the Mayne Pharma Acquisition.

E.                                      The
Acquisition.  (i) The Implementation
Agreement shall not have been altered, amended or otherwise changed or
supplemented, in each case in any respect materially adverse to the Lenders, or
any condition therein waived, without the prior written consent of the Lead
Arrangers.

(ii)                                  There shall not have
occurred any event, occurrence or matter which individually or when aggregated
with all such events, occurrences or matters:

(a)                                  diminishes,
or could reasonably be expected to diminish (whether now or in the future) (x)

of at least 10% of the consolidated net tangible assets of Mayne Pharma and its
Subsidiaries as disclosed in its audited balance sheet as at June 30, 2006; or
(y) the consolidated net profit after tax of Mayne Pharma and its Subsidiaries
in each of the financial years ending June 30, 2007, June 30, 2008 and June 30,

reasonably be expected to have a positive effect in each of the three
aforementioned financial years);

(b)                                 has
the result that Mayne Pharma and its Subsidiaries are unable to carry on their
business in substantially the same manner as carried on as at the date of the
Implementation Agreement; or

(c)                                  which
otherwise materially and adversely affects the prospects of Mayne Pharma and
its Subsidiaries, other than an event, occurrence or matter (x) which relates
to changes in prices of products sold by Mayne Pharma and its Subsidiaries in
response to changes in market conditions consistent with past practice, (y)
required to be done or procured by Mayne Pharma and its Subsidiaries in
connection with the Acquisition or (z) disclosed by Mayne Pharma and its

(iii)                               All
of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.1 of the Implementation
Agreement shall have been satisfied and the Scheme shall have become effective
in accordance with applicable law.

F.                                      No
Undisclosed Material Adverse Change. 
Except as disclosed in writing by the Borrower to the Administrative
Agent and the Lenders on or prior to the Credit Date, no event shall have

administrative, judicial or otherwise) affecting the Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries before any Governmental Authority or arbitrator, (ii) any event
arising under any Environmental Law or relating to any Hazardous Materials
Activity or (iii) the assertion of any Environmental Claim) that has had, or

Material Adverse Effect.

 39
 

G.                                    Additional
Documents.  The Administrative Agent shall
have received each additional document, certificate, instrument, legal opinion
or other item reasonably requested by it.

SECTION 4.                            REPRESENTATIONS
AND WARRANTIES

In
order to induce the Agents and the Lenders to enter into this Agreement and to
induce the Lenders to make each Loan hereunder, the Borrower represents and
warrants to each Agent and each Lender that the following statements are true,
correct and complete:

4.1                               Organization,
Powers, Qualification, Good Standing, Business and Subsidiaries.

A.                                    Organization
and Powers.  The Borrower and each of
its Subsidiaries is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing, as
applicable, under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization, except, in the
case of any Subsidiary of the Borrower, where the failure to be so organized,
existing or in good standing has not had and would not reasonably be expected
to have a Material Adverse Effect.  The
Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries has all requisite power and authority to
own, lease and operate its properties, to carry on its business as now
conducted and as proposed to be conducted, to enter into the Loan Documents and
to carry out the transactions contemplated thereby.

B.                                    Qualification
and Good Standing.  The Borrower and
each of its Subsidiaries is duly qualified to do business and in good standing,
as applicable, in every jurisdiction in which its assets are located and
wherever necessary to carry out its business and operations, except in
jurisdictions where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing has not
had and would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

4.2                               Authorization
of Borrowing, etc.

A.                                    Authorization
of Borrowing, etc.  The execution,
delivery and performance of each Loan Document have been duly authorized by all
necessary action on the part of the Borrower.

B.                                    No
Conflict.  The execution, delivery
and performance by the Borrower of each Loan Document and the consummation of
the transactions contemplated thereby do not and will not (i) violate any
provision of any Applicable Law with respect to the Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries, any of the Organizational Documents of the Borrower or any order,
judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority binding on the Borrower or any
of its Subsidiaries, except to the extent such violation would not be
reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (ii) conflict with,
result in a breach of or constitute (with due notice or lapse of time or both)

C.                                    Governmental
Consents.  The execution, delivery
and performance by the Borrower of each Loan Document and the consummation of
the transactions contemplated thereby do not and will not require any
Governmental Authorization (other than, prior to the Credit Date, Governmental
Authorizations required to complete the Mayne Pharma Acquisition).

D.                                    Binding
Obligation.  Each Loan Document has
been duly executed and delivered by the Borrower and is the legally valid and
binding obligation of the Borrower, enforceable against the Borrower in
accordance with its terms, except as may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium or similar laws relating to or limiting creditors’
rights generally or by equitable principles relating to enforceability.

4.3                               Disclosure.

No
representation or warranty of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries contained
in any Loan Document or in any other document, certificate or written statement
furnished to any Agent or any Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower or any of
its Subsidiaries for use in connection with the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to
state a material fact (known to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries in the
case of any document not furnished by any of them) necessary in order to make
the statements contained herein or therein not misleading in light of the
circumstances in which the same were made. 
Any projections and pro forma financial information contained in such
materials are based upon good faith estimates and assumptions believed by the
Borrower to be reasonable at the time made, it being recognized by the Agents
and the Lenders that such projections as to future events are not to be viewed
as facts and that actual results during the period or periods covered by any
such projections may differ from the projected results.

4.4                               Financial
Condition.

The
Borrower has heretofore delivered to the Administrative Agent the audited
consolidated balance sheet of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as at December
31, 2005 and the related audited consolidated statements of income,
stockholders’ equity and cash flows of the Borrower for the Fiscal Year then
ended, together with all related notes and schedules thereto.  All such statements were prepared in
conformity with GAAP and fairly present, in all material respects, the
financial position of the entities described in such financial statements as at
the respective dates thereof and the results of operations and cash flows of
the entities described therein for each of the periods then ended, subject, in
the case of any such unaudited financial statements, to changes resulting from
audit and normal year-end adjustments. 
Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries has any contingent
liability or liability for taxes, long-term lease or unusual forward or
long-term commitment that is not reflected in the foregoing financial statements
or the notes thereto and which in any such case could reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect.

4.5                               No
Material Adverse Change.

Except
as disclosed in the Borrower’s filings with the Securities and Exchange
Commission prior to September 20, 2006, no event or change occurred during the
period from

 41
 

December 31, 2005
through September 20, 2006 that had, or would reasonably be expected to have,
either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

4.6                               Intellectual
Property Matters.

Except
where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect, each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries owns or possesses
rights to use all franchises, licenses, copyright registrations, copyright
applications, issued patents, patent applications, trademarks, trademark
applications, trademark registrations, trademark rights, service marks, service
mark applications, service mark rights, trade names, trade name rights,
copyrights and rights with respect to the foregoing which are required to
conduct its business.  No event has
occurred which permits, or after notice or lapse of time or both would permit,
the revocation or termination of any such rights (except for the expiration of
patents in the ordinary course), and neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary
thereof is liable to any Person for infringement under Applicable Law with
respect to any such rights as a result of its business operations except to the
extent any such revocation, termination, or infringement could not reasonably
be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

4.7                               No
Litigation; Compliance with Laws.

Except
for the matters disclosed in the Borrower’s filings with the Securities and
Exchange Commission prior to September 20, 2006, as of such date there were no
actions, suits, proceedings (whether administrative, judicial or otherwise),
litigations, arbitrations or governmental investigations (whether or not
purportedly on behalf of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries) at law or in
equity, or before or by any Governmental Authority, domestic or foreign
(including any Environmental Claims), that were pending or, to the knowledge of
the Borrower, threatened against or affecting the Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries or any property of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries and
that, individually or in the aggregate, could have reasonably been expected to
result in a Material Adverse Effect. 
Prior to September 2006 and as of such date, neither the Borrower nor
any of its Subsidiaries was subject to or in default with respect to any final
judgment, writ, injunction, decree, rule or regulation of any Governmental
Authority, domestic or foreign, that, individually or in the aggregate, could
reasonably have been expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.  Neither the Borrower nor any of its
Subsidiaries is in violation of any Applicable Laws (including Environmental
Laws) that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to
result in a Material Adverse Effect.

4.8                               No
Default.

Neither
the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is in default in the performance,
observance or fulfillment of any of the obligations, covenants or conditions
contained in any of its Contractual Obligations, and no condition exists that,
with the giving of notice or the lapse of time or both, would constitute such a
default, except where the consequences, direct or indirect, of such default or
defaults, if any, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect.

 42
 

4.9                               Governmental
Regulation.

Neither
the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is subject to regulation under the
Federal Power Act or the Investment Company Act of 1940 or under any federal or
state statute or regulation which may limit its ability to incur Indebtedness
or which may otherwise render all or any portion of the Obligations
unenforceable.  Neither the Borrower nor
any of its Subsidiaries is a “registered investment company” or a company
“controlled” by a “registered investment company” or a “principal underwriter”
of a “registered investment company” as such terms are defined in the
Investment Company Act of 1940.

4.10                        Securities
Activities.

Neither
the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is engaged principally, or as one of
its important activities, in the business of extending credit for the purpose
of purchasing or carrying any Margin Stock. 
No part of the proceeds of the Loans will be used to purchase or carry
any Margin Stock or to extend credit to others for the purpose of purchasing or
carrying any Margin Stock in violation of the provisions of Regulation T, U or
X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

4.11                        Employee
Benefit Plans.

A.                                    Each
of the Borrower and its ERISA Affiliates is in material compliance with all
applicable provisions and requirements of ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code
and the regulations and published interpretations thereunder with respect to
each Employee Benefit Plan, and have performed all their obligations under each
Employee Benefit Plan in all material respects. 
Each Employee Benefit Plan which is intended to qualify under Section
401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code has received a favorable determination
letter from the Internal Revenue Service or has submitted or will submit a
request for such a determination letter within the applicable remedial
amendment period.

B.                                    No
material liability to the PBGC (other than required premium payments) or the
Internal Revenue Service has been or is expected to be incurred by the Borrower
or any of its ERISA Affiliates with respect to any Employee Benefit Plan, and
no ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur, other than
ERISA Events for which the liability has been satisfied in full or is
immaterial in amount.

C.                                    As
of the most recent valuation date for each Multiemployer Plan for which the
actuarial report is available, the potential liability of the Borrower or any
of its ERISA Affiliates for a complete withdrawal from such Multiemployer Plan
(within the meaning of Section 4203 of ERISA), when aggregated with such
potential liability for a complete withdrawal from all Multiemployer Plans,
based on information available pursuant to Section 4221(e) of ERISA is not
expected to be material.  The Borrower
and each of its Subsidiaries and each of their ERISA Affiliates have complied
in all material respects with the requirements of Section 515 of ERISA with
respect to each Multiemployer Plan and are not in material “default” (as
defined in Section 4219(c)(5) of ERISA) with respect to payments to a
Multiemployer Plan.

 43
 

4.12                        Environmental
Protection.  As of September 20, 2006:

A.                                    Neither
the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries nor any of their respective Facilities
or operations was subject to any outstanding written order, consent decree or
settlement agreement with any Person relating to any Environmental Law, any
Environmental Claim, or any Hazardous Materials Activity that, individually or
in the aggregate, could reasonably have been expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect.

B.                                    Neither
the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries had received any letter or request for
information under Section 104 of the Comprehensive Environmental Response,
Compensation, and Liability Act (42 U.S.C. § 9604) or any comparable state law,
except to the extent that such letter or request could not reasonably have been
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

C.                                    There
were not and, to the Borrower’s and each of its Subsidiaries’ knowledge, had
not been any condition, occurrence, or Hazardous Materials Activity which could
reasonably have been expected to form the basis of an Environmental Claim
against the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that, individually or in the
aggregate, could reasonably have been expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect.

D.                                    Compliance
with all then-current or reasonably foreseeable future requirements pursuant to
or under Environmental Laws could not, individually or in the aggregate,
reasonably have been expected to give rise to a Material Adverse Effect.

E.                                      Neither
the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries nor, to the knowledge of the Borrower,
any predecessor of the Borrower or any Subsidiary of such predecessor, had
filed any notice under any Environmental Law indicating past or present
treatment of Hazardous Materials at any Facility, and none of the Borrower’s
nor any of its Subsidiaries’ operations involved the generation,
transportation, treatment, storage or disposal of hazardous waste, as defined
under 40 C.F.R.  Parts 260 270 or any
state equivalent, except to the extent that any of the foregoing could not
reasonably have been expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

F.                                      No
event or condition had occurred or was occurring with respect to the Borrower
or any of its Subsidiaries relating to any Environmental Law, any Release of
Hazardous Materials, or any Hazardous Materials Activity which individually or
in the aggregate had had, or could reasonably have been expected to have, a
Material Adverse Effect.

4.13                        Pari
Passu.

The
Obligations and any other claims of the Lead Arrangers, the Agents and the
Lenders arising hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents rank at least pari passu with the claims of all of the
Borrower’s other senior unsecured creditors, except those creditors whose
claims are preferred by any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium
or similar laws relating to or limiting creditors’ rights generally.

 44
 

4.14                        Restrictions.

There
are no contractual restrictions on the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries
which prohibit or otherwise restrict the transfer of cash or other assets from any
such Subsidiary to the Borrower, other than prohibitions or restrictions
permitted under Section 6.4.

its existence and all rights, privileges, licenses and franchises material to

Subsidiaries shall be required to preserve any such right, privilege, license
or franchise if management of the Borrower or such Subsidiary shall reasonably
determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct
of the business of

 47
 

such Person, and
that the loss thereof is not disadvantageous in any material respect to the
Borrower or the Lenders.

been made therefor or (b) if the aggregate amount of all unpaid Taxes that have
not been paid by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries (excluding amounts being

reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  The Borrower will not, nor will it permit any
of its Subsidiaries to, file or consent to the filing of any consolidated
income Tax return with any Person (other than the Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries).

SECTION 8.                            MISCELLANEOUS

8.1                               Assignments
and Participations in Loans.

A.                                    Right
to Assign.  Each Lender shall have
the right at any time to sell, assign or transfer all or a portion of its
rights and obligations under this Agreement, including all or a portion of its
Commitment or Loans owing to it or other Obligation (provided, however,
that each such assignment shall be of a uniform, and not varying, percentage of
all rights and obligations under and in respect of Loans and its
Commitment):  (i) to any Person meeting
the criteria of clause (A) of the definition of the term of “Eligible Assignee”
or to any Approved Fund upon the giving of notice to the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent; and (ii) to any Person meeting the criteria of clause (B)
of the definition of the term of “Eligible Assignee” and consented to by each
of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be (x)
unreasonably withheld or delayed and, (y) in the case of the Borrower, required
at any time an Event of Default shall have occurred and then be continuing); provided
further each such assignment pursuant to this Section 8.1A shall be in
an aggregate amount of not less than $5,000,000, which such amount shall be
reduced to $1,000,000 at any time an Event of Default shall have occurred and
be continuing (or such lesser amount as may be agreed to by the Borrower and
the Administrative Agent or as shall constitute the aggregate amount of the
Commitment and Loans of the assigning Lender).

B.                                    Requirements.  The assigning Lender and the assignee thereof
shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment Agreement,
together with (i) a processing and recordation fee of $3,500, and (ii) such
forms, certificates or other evidence, if any, with respect to United States
federal income tax withholding matters as the assignee under such Assignment
Agreement may be required to deliver to Administrative Agent pursuant to
Section 2.8B(iii).

C.                                    Acceptance
and Notice of Assignment.  Upon its
receipt of a duly executed and completed Assignment Agreement, together with
the processing and recordation fee referred to in Section 8.1B (and any forms,
certificates or other evidence required by this Agreement in connection
therewith), the Administrative Agent shall record the information contained in
such Assignment Agreement in the Register, shall give prompt notice thereof to
the Borrower and shall maintain a copy of such Assignment Agreement.

D.                                    Representations
and Warranties of Assignee.  Each
Lender, upon execution and delivery hereof or upon executing and delivering an
Assignment Agreement, as the case may be, represents and warrants as of the
Effective Date or as of the applicable Effective Date (as defined in the
applicable Assignment Agreement) that (i) it is an Eligible Assignee; (ii) it
has experience and expertise in the making of or investing in commitments or
loans such as its Commitment or Loans, as the case may be; and (iii) it will
make or invest in, as the case may be, its Commitment or Loans for its own
account in the ordinary course of its business and without a view to
distribution of its Commitment or Loans within the meaning of the Securities
Act or the Exchange Act or other federal securities laws (it being understood
that, subject to the provisions

 59
 

of this Section 8.1, the disposition of its Commitment or Loans or any
interests therein shall at all times remain within its exclusive control).

E.                                      Effect
of Assignment.  Subject to the terms
and conditions of this Section 8.1, as of the “Effective Date” specified in the
applicable Assignment Agreement:  (i) the
assignee thereunder shall have the rights and obligations of a “Lender”
hereunder to the extent such rights and obligations hereunder have been
assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment Agreement and shall thereafter be a
party hereto and a “Lender” for all purposes hereof; (ii) the assigning Lender
thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been
assigned thereby pursuant to such Assignment Agreement, relinquish its rights
(other than any rights which survive the termination hereof under Section 8.8) and
be released from its obligations hereunder (and, in the case of an Assignment
Agreement covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights
and obligations hereunder, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto; provided,
anything contained in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding
and (y) such assigning Lender shall continue to be entitled to the benefit of
all indemnities hereunder as specified herein with respect to matters arising
out of the prior involvement of such assigning Lender as a Lender hereunder);
(iii) the Commitments shall be modified to reflect the Commitment of such
assignee and any Commitment of such assigning Lender, if any; and (iv) if any
such assignment occurs after the issuance of any Note to the assigning Lender,
the assigning Lender shall, upon the effectiveness of such assignment or as
promptly thereafter as practicable, surrender its Notes to the Administrative
Agent for cancellation, and thereupon the Borrower shall issue and deliver new
Notes, if so requested by the assignee and/or assigning Lender, to such
assignee and/or to such assigning Lender, with appropriate insertions, to
evidence the Loans of the assignee and/or the assigning Lender.

F.                                      Certain
Other Permitted Assignments.  In
addition to any other assignment permitted pursuant to this Section 8.1, any
Lender may assign and/or pledge all or any portion of its Loans, the other
obligations owed by or to such Lender, if any, to secure obligations of such
Lender including to any Federal Reserve Bank as collateral security pursuant to
Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and any
operating circular issued by such Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no
such assignment or pledge shall release any Lender from any of its obligations
hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party
hereto.

G.                                    Participations.  Each Lender shall have the right at any time
to sell one or more participations to any Person (other than the Borrower, any
of its Subsidiaries or any of its Affiliates) in all or any part of its
Commitment, Loans or other Obligations. 
The holder of any such participation, other than an Affiliate of the
Lender granting such participation, shall not be entitled to require such Lender
to take or omit to take any action hereunder except with respect to any
amendment, modification or waiver that would (i) extend the final scheduled
maturity of any Loan or Note in which such participant is participating, or
reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest or fees thereon
(except in connection with a waiver of applicability of any post default
increase in interest rates) or reduce the principal amount thereof, or increase
the amount of the participant’s participation over the amount thereof then in
effect (it being understood that a waiver of any Event of Default or of a
mandatory reduction in the Commitment shall not constitute a change in the
terms of such participation, and that an increase in any Commitment or Loan
shall be permitted without the consent of any participant if the participant’s

 60
 

participation is not increased as a result thereof) or (ii) consent to
the assignment or transfer by the Borrower of any of its rights and obligations
under this Agreement.  The Borrower
agrees that each participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.9C
and 2.8 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest
by assignment pursuant to Section 8.1A; provided (i) a participant shall
not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.8 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 and (ii) a
participant that would be a Non-US Lender if it were a Lender shall not be
entitled to the benefits of Section 2.8B 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 2.8B as though it were a
Lender.  To the extent permitted by law,
each participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 8.5 as
though it were a Lender, provided such participant agrees to be subject
to Section 8.18 as though it were a Lender.

8.2                               Expenses.

Whether
or not the transactions contemplated hereby shall be consummated, the Borrower
agrees to pay promptly (i) all the actual and reasonable costs and
out-of-pocket expenses of preparation of the Loan Documents; (ii) all the costs
of furnishing all opinions by counsel for the Borrower; (iii) the reasonable
fees, out-of-pocket expenses and disbursements of a single U.S. counsel in
connection with the negotiation, preparation and execution of the Loan
Documents and any other documents or matters requested by the Borrower; (iv)
all the actual and reasonable costs and out-of-pocket reasonable fees, expenses
and disbursements of any auditors, accountants, consultants or appraisers; (v)
all other actual and reasonable costs and out-of-pocket expenses incurred by
each Lead Arranger, the Administrative Agent and each Syndication Agent in
connection with the syndication of the Loans and the negotiation, preparation
and execution of the Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby;
(vi) all actual and reasonable costs and out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the
Administrative Agent in connection with any consents, amendments, waivers or
other modifications of the Loan Documents (including the reasonable fees,
out-of-pocket expenses and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent
in connection therewith); and (vii) after the occurrence of an Event of
Default, all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees
(including, without duplication, allocated costs of internal counsel) and costs
of settlement, incurred by any Agent or Lender in enforcing any Obligations of
or in collecting any payments due from the Borrower hereunder or under the
other Loan Documents by reason of such Event of Default (including in
connection with the sale of, collection from, or other realization upon any
collateral) or in connection with any refinancing or restructuring of the
credit arrangements provided under this Agreement in the nature of a “work-out”
or pursuant to any insolvency or bankruptcy cases or proceedings.

8.3                               Indemnity.

A.                                    In
addition to the payment of expenses pursuant to Section 8.2, whether or not the
transactions contemplated hereby shall be consummated, the Borrower agrees to
defend (subject to Indemnitees’ selection of counsel), indemnify, pay and hold
harmless each of the Lead Arrangers and Agents and each Lender, and the
respective partners, officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys, and
affiliates of each of the Lead Arrangers and each of the Agents

 61
 

and each Lender (collectively called the “Indemnitees”), from and against any and all Indemnified
Liabilities (as hereinafter defined); provided that the Borrower shall
not have any obligation to any Indemnitee hereunder with respect to any
Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities arise from
the gross negligence or willful misconduct of that Indemnitee or any of its
Affiliates as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent
jurisdiction.  As used herein, “Indemnified Liabilities” means, collectively, any and all
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages (including natural resource damages),
penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims (including environmental claims),
costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including
the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for Indemnitees in connection
with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding commenced or
threatened by the Borrower or any other Person, whether or not any such
Indemnitee shall be designated as a party or a potential party thereto, and any
fees or expenses incurred by Indemnitees in enforcing this indemnity), whether
direct, indirect or consequential and whether based on any federal, state or
foreign laws, statutes, rules or regulations (including securities and
commercial laws, statutes, rules or regulations and Environmental Laws), on
common law or equitable cause or on contract or otherwise, that may be imposed
on, incurred by, or asserted against any such Indemnitee, in any manner
relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (including the Lenders’ agreements
to make the Loans hereunder or the use or intended use of the proceeds thereof,
or any enforcement of any of the Loan Documents).

B.                                    To
the extent that the undertakings to defend, indemnify, pay and hold harmless
set forth in this Section 8.3 may be unenforceable in whole or in part because
they are violative of any law or public policy, the Borrower shall contribute
the maximum portion that it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable
law to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by
Indemnitees or any of them.

C.                                    To
the extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower and each of its
Subsidiaries shall not assert, and each hereby waives, any claim against the
Lenders, the Agents, the Lead Arrangers and their respective Affiliates,
officers, directors, employees, attorneys or agents, on any theory of
liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed
to direct or actual damages) (whether or not the claim therefor is based on
contract, tort or duty imposed by any applicable legal requirement) arising out
of, in connection with, arising out of, as a result of, or in any way related
to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any agreement or instrument
contemplated hereby or thereby or referred to herein or therein, the
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the
proceeds thereof or any act or omission or event occurring in connection
therewith, and the Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries hereby waives,
releases and agrees not to sue upon any such claim or any such damages, whether
or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor.

8.4                               Set-Off.

In
addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law and not by
way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of any Event of Default, each of the Agents and each Lender (and
each of their respective Affiliates) is hereby authorized by the Borrower at
any time or from time to time subject, except in the case of an Event of
Default under Section 7.1, 7.6 or 7.7, to the consent of the Administrative
Agent (such

 62
 

consent not to be
unreasonably withheld or delayed), without notice to the Borrower or to any
other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set-off and to
appropriate and to apply any and all deposits (general or special, including
Indebtedness evidenced by certificates of deposit, whether matured or
unmatured, but not including trust accounts) and any other Indebtedness at any
time held or owing by such Agent or such Lender (or such Affiliate), and any of
their respective affiliates, as the case may be, to or for the credit or the
account of the Borrower against and on account of the obligations and
liabilities of the Borrower to such Agent or such Lender under this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents, including all claims of any nature or description
arising out of or connected with this Agreement or any other Loan Document,
irrespective of whether or not (i) such Agent or such Lender shall have made
any demand hereunder or (ii) the principal of or the interest on the Loans or
any other amounts due hereunder shall have become due and payable pursuant to
Section 7 and although said Obligations, or any of them, may be contingent or
unmatured.

8.5                               Amendments
and Waivers.

No
amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of this
Agreement or of any other Loan Document, or consent to any departure by the
Borrower therefrom, shall in any event be effective without the written
concurrence of the Requisite Lenders; provided that no amendment,
modification, termination, waiver or consent shall, without the consent of each
Lender affected thereby:  (i) extend the
scheduled final maturity of any Loan; (ii) waive, reduce or postpone any scheduled
repayment (but not prepayment); (iii) reduce the rate of interest on any Loan
or any fee or other amount hereunder; (iv) extend the time for payment of any
such interest, fees or other amounts; (v) reduce the principal amount of any
Loan; (vi) amend, modify, terminate or waive any provision of this Section 8.5;
(vii) amend, modify or replace the definition of “Requisite Lenders” or “Pro
Rata Share”, or any provision of this Agreement which would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required
hereunder; or (viii) consent to the assignment or transfer by the Borrower of
any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement; provided further
that no such amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of
the Loan Documents, or consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom,
shall:  (1) increase the Commitments of
any Lender over the amount thereof then in effect without the consent of such
Lender; or (2) amend, modify, terminate or waive any provision of this
Agreement as the same applies to the rights or obligations of any Agent, in
each case without the consent of such Agent. 
The Administrative Agent may, but shall have no obligation to, with the
concurrence of any Lender, execute amendments, modifications, waivers or consents
on behalf of such Lender.  Any waiver or
consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific
purpose for which it was given.  No
notice to or demand on the Borrower in any case shall entitle the Borrower to
any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

8.6                               Independence
of Covenants.

All
covenants hereunder shall be given independent effect so that if a particular
action or condition is not permitted by any of such covenants, the fact that it
would be permitted by an exception to, or would otherwise be within the
limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid the occurrence of an Event of
Default or Potential Event of Default if such action is taken or condition
exists.

 63
 

8.7                               Notices.

A.                                    Generally.  Unless otherwise specifically provided
herein, all notices or other communications provided for hereunder between the

Agreement, at its address set forth on the signature pages hereto, or, as to
each party, at such other address or to such other person as shall be

Borrower or any other Person party hereto shall not be effective until

B.                                    Intralinks.

(i)                                     The Borrower
hereby agree that they will provide to the Administrative Agent all
information, documents and other materials that they are obligated to furnish
to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Loan Documents, including all
notices, requests, financial statements, financial and other reports,
certificates and other information materials, but excluding any such
communication that (i) relates to a request for a new, or a conversion of an
existing, borrowing or other Loan (including any election of an interest rate
or interest period relating thereto), (ii) relates to the payment of any
principal or other amount due under this Agreement prior to the scheduled date
therefor, (iii) provides notice of any Potential Event of Default or Event of

Administrative Agent to oploanswebadmin@citigroup.com.  In addition, the Borrower agrees to continue
to provide the Communications to the Administrative Agent in the manner
specified in the Loan Documents but only to the extent requested by the
Administrative Agent.

(ii)                                  The Borrower further
agrees that the Administrative Agent may make the Communications available to
the Lenders by posting the Communications on Intralinks or a substantially
similar electronic transmission system (the “Platform”).

(iii)                            THE
PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”.  THE AGENT PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT
WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE COMMUNICATIONS, OR THE ADEQUACY OF
THE PLATFORM AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE
COMMUNICATIONS.  NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND,
EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY,
FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR
FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY THE AGENT PARTIES IN
CONNECTION WITH THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE PLATFORM.  IN NO EVENT SHALL THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR
ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE OFFICERS, DIRECTORS,
EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, ADVISORS OR REPRESENTATIVES (COLLECTIVELY, “AGENT PARTIES”)
HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO THE BORROWER, ANY LENDER OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR

 64
 

ENTITY FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING DIRECT OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL,
INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOSSES OR EXPENSES (WHETHER IN TORT,
CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF THE BORROWER’S OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE
AGENT’S TRANSMISSION OF COMMUNICATIONS THROUGH THE INTERNET, EXCEPT TO THE
EXTENT THE LIABILITY OF ANY AGENT PARTY IS FOUND IN A FINAL NON-APPEALABLE
JUDGMENT BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION TO HAVE RESULTED PRIMARILY FROM
SUCH AGENT PARTY’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT.

(iv)                              The Administrative Agent
agrees that the receipt of the Communications by the Administrative Agent at
its e-mail address set forth above shall constitute effective delivery of the
Communications to the Administrative Agent for purposes of the Loan
Documents.  Each Lender agrees that
notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) specifying that the
Communications have been posted to the Platform shall constitute effective
delivery of the Communications to such Lender for purposes of the Loan
Documents.  Each Lender agrees to notify
the Administrative Agent in writing (including by electronic communication)
from time to time of such Lender’s e-mail address to which the foregoing notice
may be sent by electronic transmission and (ii) that the foregoing notice may
be sent to such e-mail address.

8.8                               Survival
of Representations, Warranties and Agreements.

A.                                    All
representations, warranties and agreements made herein shall survive the
execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of the Loans hereunder.

B.                                    Notwithstanding
anything in this Agreement or implied by law to the contrary, the agreements of
the Borrower set forth in Sections 2.8, 2.9C, 8.2, 8.3 and 8.4 and the
agreements of Lenders set forth in Sections 8.18, 9.2C and 9.4 shall survive
the payment of the Loans and the termination of this Agreement.

8.9                               Failure
or Indulgence Not Waiver; Remedies Cumulative.

No
failure or delay on the part of any Lead Arranger, any Agent or any Lender in
the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan
Document shall impair such power, right or privilege or be construed to be a
waiver of any default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial
exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further
exercise thereof or of any other power, right or privilege.  The rights, powers and remedies given to each
Lead Arranger, each Agent and each Lender hereby are cumulative and shall be in
addition to and independent of all rights, powers and remedies existing by
virtue of any statute or rule of law or in any other Loan Document.  Any forbearance or failure to exercise, and
any delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall not impair
any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver thereof, nor
shall it preclude the further exercise of any such right, power or remedy.

8.10                        Marshalling;
Payments Set Aside.

No
Agent or Lender shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of
the Borrower or any other Person or against or in payment of any or all of the
Obligations.  To the 

 65
 

extent that the
Borrower makes a payment or payments to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders
(or to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lenders) or the
Administrative Agent or the Lenders enforce any security interests or exercises
their rights of set-off, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such
enforcement or set-off or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated,
declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required to be
repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, any
other state or federal law, common law or any equitable cause, then, to the
extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to
be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor or related thereto,
shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment or
payments had not been made or such enforcement or set-off had not occurred.

8.11                        Severability.

In
case any provision in or obligation under any Loan Document shall be invalid,
illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and
enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations of such Loan
Document, the other Loan Documents or of such provision or obligation in any
other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

8.12                        Headings.

Section
and subsection headings in this Agreement are included herein for convenience
of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement for any
other purpose or be given any substantive effect.

8.13                        Applicable
Law.

THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

8.14                        Successors
and Assigns.

This
Agreement shall be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective
successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and
the successors and assigns of the Lenders (it being understood that each Lender’s
rights of assignment are subject to Section 8.1).  The Borrower may not assign or delegate its
rights or obligations hereunder or any interest therein without the prior
written consent of each Lender.  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

Each Agent and
Lender shall hold all confidential, proprietary or non-public information
regarding the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and their respective businesses
which has been identified as confidential by any the Borrower and obtained
pursuant to the requirements of this Agreement in accordance with such Agent’s
or Lender’s customary procedures for handling confidential information of this
nature and in accordance with safe and sound banking practices, it being
understood and agreed by the Borrower that in any event each Lender may make
disclosures (i) to Affiliates of such Agent or Lender and the directors,
officers, employees, agents, advisors and other representatives of such Agent
or Lender and their Affiliates (and to other persons authorized by an Agent or
Lender to organize, present or disseminate such information in connection with
disclosures otherwise made in accordance with this Section 8.17); (ii)
reasonably required by any bona fide or potential assignee, transferee or
participant in connection with the contemplated assignment, transfer or

Subsidiaries received by it from any of the Agents or any Lender; (iv) required
or requested by any Governmental Authority or representative thereof; provided
that unless specifically prohibited by applicable law, court order or similar

representative thereof (other than any such request in connection with any
examination of the financial condition or other routine examination of such
Agent or Lender by such Governmental Authority) for disclosure of any such
non-public information prior to disclosure of such information; (v) to any

of a breach of this Section 8.17 or (y) becomes available to any Agent, any
Lender or their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source
other than the Borrower so long as such Agent, such Lender or such Affiliate
does not have knowledge that such source has an obligation to the Borrower to
keep such information confidential; provided that in no event shall any
Agent or Lender be obligated or required to return any materials furnished by
the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries.

 68

8.18                        Ratable
Sharing.

The
Lenders hereby agree among themselves that if any of them shall, whether by
voluntary payment (other than a voluntary prepayment of Loans made and applied
in accordance with the terms hereof), through the exercise of any right of set-off
or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross action or by the enforcement of any
right under the Loan Documents or otherwise, or as adequate protection of a
deposit treated as cash collateral under the Bankruptcy Code, receive payment
or reduction of a proportion of the aggregate amount of principal, interest,
amounts payable in respect of commitment fees and other amounts then due and
owing to such Lender hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (collectively,
the “Aggregate Amounts Due” to
such Lender), which is greater than the proportion received by any other Lender
in respect to of the Aggregate Amounts Due to such other Lender, then the
Lender receiving such proportionately greater payment shall (i) notify the
Administrative Agent of the receipt of such payment and (ii) apply a portion of
such payment to purchase (for cash at face value) participations (which it
shall be deemed to have purchased from each seller of a participation
simultaneously upon the receipt by such seller of its portion of such payment),
or such other adjustments as shall be equitable, in the Aggregate Amounts Due
to the other Lenders so that all such recoveries of Aggregate Amounts Due shall
be shared by all Lenders in proportion to the Aggregate Amounts Due to them; provided
that, if all or part of such proportionately greater payment received by such
purchasing Lender is thereafter recovered from such Lender upon the bankruptcy
or reorganization of the Borrower or otherwise, those purchases shall be
rescinded and the purchase prices paid for such participations shall be
returned to such purchasing Lender ratably to the extent of such recovery, but
without interest. The Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries expressly consents
to the foregoing arrangement and agrees that any holder of a participation so
purchased may exercise any and all rights of banker’s lien, set-off or
counterclaim with respect to any and all monies owing by the Borrower or any of
its Subsidiaries to that holder with respect thereto as fully as if that holder
were owed the amount of the participation held by that holder.

8.19                        Counterparts;
Effectiveness.

This
Agreement and any amendments, waivers, consents or supplements hereto or in
connection herewith may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of
which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all such
counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same instrument. This
Agreement shall become effective upon the execution of a counterpart hereof by
each of the parties hereto and receipt by the Administrative Agent of written
or telephonic notification of such execution and authorization of delivery
thereof.

8.20                        Obligations
Several; Independent Nature of Lenders’ Rights.

The
obligations of the Lenders hereunder are several and no Lender shall be
responsible for the obligations or Commitment of any other Lender hereunder.
Nothing contained herein or in any other Loan Document, and no action taken by
the Lenders pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the
Lenders as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of
entity. The amounts payable at any time hereunder to each Lender shall be a
separate and independent debt, and each Lender shall be entitled to protect and
enforce its rights arising

 69
 

out hereof and it
shall not be necessary for any other Lender to be joined as an additional party
in any proceeding for such purpose.

8.21                        Usury
Savings Clause.

Notwithstanding
any other provision herein, the aggregate interest rate charged with respect to
any of the Obligations, including all charges or fees in connection therewith
deemed in the nature of interest under applicable law shall not exceed the
Highest Lawful Rate. As used herein, “Highest
Lawful Rate” means the maximum lawful interest rate, if any, that at
any time or from time to time may be contracted for, charged, or received under
the laws applicable to any Lender which are presently in effect or, to the
extent allowed by law, under such applicable laws which may hereafter be in effect
and which allow a higher maximum nonusurious interest rate than applicable laws
now allow. If the rate of interest (determined without regard to the preceding
sentence) under this Agreement at any time exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, the
outstanding amount of the Loans made hereunder shall bear interest at the
Highest Lawful Rate until the total amount of interest due hereunder equals the
amount of interest which would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of
interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect. In
addition, if when the Loans made hereunder are repaid in full the total
interest due hereunder (taking into account the increase provided for above) is
less than the total amount of interest which would have been due hereunder if
the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been
in effect, then to the extent permitted by law, the Borrower shall pay to the
Administrative Agent an amount equal to the difference between the amount of
interest paid and the amount of interest which would have been paid if the
Highest Lawful Rate had at all times been in effect. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, it is the intention of the Lenders and the Borrower to conform
strictly to any applicable usury laws. Accordingly, if any Lender contracts
for, charges, or receives any consideration which constitutes interest in
excess of the Highest Lawful Rate, then any such excess shall be cancelled
automatically and, if previously paid, shall at such Lender’s option be applied
to the outstanding amount of the Loans made hereunder or be refunded to the
Borrower.

SECTION
9.                            AGENTS

9.1                               Appointment.

ABN
AMRO and MSSF are hereby appointed as Syndication Agents hereunder, and each
Lender hereby authorizes the Syndication Agents to act as its agents in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Bank
of America, N.A. and Wachovia Bank, National Association are hereby appointed
as Documentation Agents hereunder, and each Lender hereby authorizes the Documentation
Agents to act as its agents in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents. Citibank is hereby appointed by each Lender as the
Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and each
Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as its agent in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each
Agent hereby agrees to act upon the express conditions contained in this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents, as applicable. The provisions of this
Section 9 are solely for the benefit of the Agents and the Lenders, and the

 70
 

Borrower shall
have no rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions thereof.
In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement, each of the Agents
shall act solely as an agent of the Lenders and does not assume and shall not
be deemed to have assumed any obligation towards or relationship of agency or
trust with or for the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries.

9.2                               Powers
and Duties; General Immunity.

A.            Powers; Duties
Specified. Each
Lender irrevocably authorizes each Agent to take such action on such Lender’s
behalf and to exercise such powers, rights and remedies hereunder and under the
other Loan Documents as are specifically delegated or granted to such Agent by
the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers, rights and remedies as
are reasonably incidental thereto. Each Agent shall have only those duties and
responsibilities that are expressly specified in this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents. Each Agent may exercise such powers, rights and remedies and
perform such duties by or through its agents or employees. No Agent shall have,
by reason of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, a fiduciary relationship
in respect of any Lender; and nothing in this Agreement or any of the other
Loan Documents, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed
as to impose upon any Agent any obligations in respect of this Agreement or any
of the other Loan Documents except as expressly set forth herein or therein.
Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the Lead Arrangers,
Syndication Agents or Documentation Agents listed on the cover page hereof
shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any
of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as a Lender hereunder.

B.            No Responsibility
for Certain Matters. No
Agent shall be responsible to any Lender for the execution, effectiveness,
genuineness, validity, enforceability, collectability or sufficiency of this
Agreement or any other Loan Document or for any representations, warranties,
recitals or statements made herein or therein or made in any written or oral
statements or in any financial or other statements, instruments, reports or
certificates or any other documents furnished or made by any Agent to the
Lenders or by or on behalf of the Borrower to any Agent or any Lender in
connection with the Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby or
for the financial condition or business affairs of the Borrower or any other
Person liable for the payment of any Obligations, nor shall any Agent be
required to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of
the terms, conditions, provisions, covenants or agreements contained in any of
the Loan Documents (other than to confirm receipt of items required under this
Agreement or any Loan Document to be delivered to such Agent) or as to the use
of the proceeds of the Loans or as to the existence or possible existence of
any Event of Default or Potential Event of Default (unless and until notice
describing such Event of Default or Potential Event of Default is given to such
Agent by the Borrower or any other Agent) or to make disclosures with respect
to the foregoing. Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary
notwithstanding, the Administrative Agent shall not have any liability arising
from confirmations of the amount of outstanding Loans or the component amounts
thereof.

C.            Exculpatory
Provisions. No Agent
or any of its officers, partners, directors, employees or agents shall be
liable to the Lenders for any action taken or omitted by any Agent under or in
connection with any of the Loan Documents except to the extent caused by such

 71
 

Agent’s
gross negligence or willful misconduct. Each Agent shall be entitled to refrain
from any act or the taking of any action (including the failure to take an
action) in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or
from the exercise of any power, discretion or authority vested in it hereunder
or thereunder unless and until such Agent shall have received instructions in
respect thereof from the Requisite Lenders (or such other the Lenders as may be
required to give such instructions under Section 8.5) and, upon receipt of such
instructions from the Requisite Lenders (or such other Lenders, as the case may
be), such Agent shall be entitled to act or (where so instructed) refrain from
acting, or to exercise such power, discretion or authority, in accordance with
such instructions. Without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, (i)
each of Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in
relying, upon any communication, instrument or document believed by it to be
genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person or
Persons, and shall be entitled to rely and shall be protected in relying on
opinions and judgments of attorneys (who may be attorneys for the Borrower and
its Subsidiaries), accountants, experts and other professional advisors
selected by it; and (ii) no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever
against any Agent as a result of such Agent acting or (where so instructed)
refraining from acting under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents
in accordance with the instructions of the Requisite Lenders (or such other
Lenders as may be required to give such instructions under Section 8.5).

D.            Agents Entitled to
Act as Lenders. The
agency hereby created shall in no way impair or affect any of the rights and
powers of, or impose any duties or obligations upon, any Agent in its
individual capacity as a Lender hereunder. With respect to its participation in
the Loans, each Agent shall have the same rights and powers hereunder as any
other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not performing the
duties and functions delegated to it hereunder, and the term “Lender” shall,
unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include each Agent in its
individual capacity. Any Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from,
lend money to, own Securities of, and generally engage in any kind of banking,
trust, financial advisory or other business with the Borrower or any of their
Affiliates as if it were not performing the duties specified herein, and may
accept fees and other consideration from the Borrower for services in
connection with this Agreement and otherwise without having to account for the
same to Lenders. No Agent shall have any duty to disclose any information
obtained or received by it or any of its Affiliates relating to the Borrower or
any of its Subsidiaries to the extent such information was obtained or received
in any capacity other than as an Agent under this Agreement. In the event that
Citibank or any of its Affiliates shall be or become an indenture trustee under
the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (as amended, the “Trust Indenture Act”)
in respect of any securities issued or guaranteed by the Borrower, the parties
hereto acknowledge and agree that any payment or property received in
satisfaction of or in respect of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder or
under any other Loan Document by or on behalf of Citibank in its capacity as
the Administrative Agent for the benefit of any Lender under this Agreement or
any Note (other than Citibank or an Affiliate of Citibank) and which is applied
in accordance with this Agreement shall be deemed to be exempt from the
requirements of Section 311 of the Trust Indenture Act pursuant to Section
311(b)(3) of the Trust Indenture Act.

 72
 

9.3                               Representations
and Warranties; No Responsibility For Appraisal of Creditworthiness.

Each
Lender represents and warrants that it has made its own independent
investigation of the financial condition and affairs of the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries in connection with the making of the Loans hereunder and that it
has made and shall continue to make its own appraisal of the creditworthiness
of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries. No Agent shall have any duty or
responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to make any such
investigation or any such appraisal on behalf of the Lenders or to provide any
Lender with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether
coming into its possession before the making of the Loans or at any time or
times thereafter, and no Agent shall have any responsibility with respect to
the accuracy of or the completeness of any information provided to the Lenders.

9.4                               Right
to Indemnity.

Each
Lender, in proportion to its Pro Rata Share, severally agrees to indemnify the
Administrative Agent, to the extent that the Administrative Agent shall not
have been reimbursed by the Borrower to the full extent required by this
Agreement or any other Loan Document, for and against any and all liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs,
expenses (including counsel fees and disbursements) or disbursements of any
kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted
against such Agent in exercising its powers, rights and remedies or performing
its duties hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or otherwise in its
capacity as Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents; provided that (a) no Lender shall
be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages,
penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements
resulting from the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful
misconduct and (b) no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of
an Indemnified Liability pursuant to this Section 9.4 unless such Indemnified
Liability was incurred by the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such or
by another Person acting for the Administrative Agent in such capacity. If any
indemnity furnished to the Administrative Agent for any purpose shall, in the
opinion of the Administrative Agent, be insufficient or become impaired, the
Administrative Agent may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not
commence, to do the acts indemnified against until such additional indemnity is
furnished.

9.5                               Successor
Administrative Agent.

The
Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving thirty (30) days’ prior
written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower, and the Administrative
Agent may be removed at any time with or without cause by an instrument or
concurrent instruments in writing delivered to the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent and signed by the Requisite Lenders. Upon any such notice
of resignation or any such removal, the Requisite Lenders shall have the right,
with, so long as no Potential Event of Default or Event of Default exists, the
consent of the Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed), upon five (5) Business Days’ notice to the Borrower, to select a
successor Administrative Agent. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as
Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, that
successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested
with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed
Administrative Agent and the retiring or

 73
 

removed
Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under
this Agreement. After any retiring or removed Administrative Agent’s
resignation or removal hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of
this Section 9 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to
be taken by it while it was the Administrative Agent under this Agreement.

9.6                               Acknowledgment
of Potential Related Transactions.

The
Borrower hereby acknowledge its understanding that each of the Lead Arrangers,
each of the Agents and each of the Lenders may from time to time effect
transactions (for its own account or the account of customers), and hold
positions in loans or options on loans that may be the subject of this
arrangement. In addition, certain Affiliates of the Lenders are full service
securities firms and as such may from time to time effect transactions (for its
own account or the account of customers), and hold positions, in loans or
options on loans or securities or options on securities that may be the subject
of this arrangement. In addition, each of the Lead Arrangers, each of the Agents
and each of the Lenders may employ the services of its Affiliates in providing
certain services hereunder and may, subject to Section 8.17, exchange with such
Affiliates information concerning the Borrower and other companies that may be
the subject of this arrangement.
