Project Nightingale - Commitment Letter 

Ladies and Gentlemen: 

You have advised us that Quest Diagnostics Incorporated (the "Borrower") intends to acquire (the "Acquisition") all of the outstanding common stock of a certain company that you have confidentially identified to us (the "Target").  In connection with the Acquisition, you have
requested that Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc. (“Morgan Stanley”) provide you with a financing commitment for 100% of the Senior Bank Financing (as defined and described
below). You have further advised us that for purposes of consummating the Transaction (as defined below) and for ongoing working capital and general corporate purposes, the following financing will be required on the date the Acquisition is to be
consummated (the “Closing Date”): 

	          	
a)     	
A senior unsecured credit facility in an aggregate amount of $2,250,000,000 to be provided by Morgan Stanley and certain other financial institutions (the “Bank
Lenders”), which facilities shall consist of a $1,500,000,000 term loan facility (the “Term Loan Facility”) and a $750,000,000
revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”, together with the Term Loan Facility, the “Senior Credit
Facilities”), having substantially the terms set forth in Exhibit A hereto (such Exhibit, together with Exhibit B referred to below, being the “Term
Sheets” and, together with this letter, this “Commitment Letter”). Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in Exhibit A, the
committed amounts of each of the Senior Credit Facilities may be increased by up to $250,000,000.

	
	 
	 	
b)	
A senior unsecured bridge loan facility of up to $1,100,000,000 (the "Bridge Loan Facility", together with the Senior Credit Facilities, the
“Senior Bank Financing”) to be provided by Morgan Stanley and certain other financial institutions (the “Bridge
Lenders” and, together with the Bank Lenders, the “Lenders”) having substantially the terms set forth in Exhibit B hereto (as defined
below). You have informed us that, after the consummation of the Acquisition, you expect to issue up to $1,100,000,000 of senior notes or other securities (the "Securities") which
will be used to repay the Bridge Loan Facility. 

	 

	 

  You have further informed us that no other external debt financing other than the Term Loan Facility and Bridge Loan Facility will be required to consummate the Acquisition.

The Acquisition, the entering into and funding of the Senior Bank Financing, the issuance and sale of the Securities and all related transactions, including the refinancing of (x) the Borrower’s existing debt, including (i)
the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of April 20, 2004, among the Borrower, certain of the Borrower’s subsidiaries, as Guarantors, the Lenders (as defined therein), and Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent and (ii) the
Interim Credit Agreement, dated as of January 31, 2007, among the Borrower, certain of the Borrower’s subsidiaries, as Guarantors, the Lenders (as defined therein), and Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent (the credit agreements
described in clauses (i) and (ii) above being, collectively, the “Existing Credit Facilities”) and (y) the Target’s existing debt (collectively, the
“Refinancing”), and the payment of related fees, costs and expenses are collectively referred to as the "Transaction". 

Our affiliate, Morgan Stanley & Co., Incorporated ("MSCI") has also delivered to you a separate engagement letter, dated the date hereof (the
"Engagement Letter"), setting forth, among other things, the terms on which MSCI is willing to act as the exclusive lead arranger and lead bookrunner for the Securities. 

In connection with the foregoing, and upon and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the Term Sheets, Morgan Stanley is pleased to offer its commitment to lend, or to cause one or more of its affiliates to
lend on the Closing Date, 100% of the $3,350,000,000 Senior Bank Financing.

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Commitment Letter, Morgan Stanley shall act as (i) the sole lead arranger, and sole book-runner in respect of each of the Senior Credit Facilities and the Bridge Loan Facility (in such
capacities, the “Lead Arranger”) and (ii) the administrative agent for each of the Senior Credit Facilities and the Bridge Loan Facility. It
is understood that Morgan Stanley shall be permitted to designate, in consultation with you, one or more Lenders as agents or co-agents, as the case may be, but no other agents, co-agents, or arrangers will be appointed, no other titles may be
given, and no other compensation (other than as expressly set forth in the Term Sheets or in the fee letter, dated the date hereof, among Morgan Stanley and the Borrower and executed simultaneously herewith (the “Fee Letter”)) will be paid without Morgan Stanley’s prior written consent; provided that the Borrower shall have the right to appoint
(x) one additional institution to act as joint lead arranger and book runner, (y) additional documentation agents and syndication agents for the Senior Bank Financings and (z) one other financial institution to act as administrative agent under the
Senior Credit Facilities, in each case subject to (i) the consent of Morgan Stanley (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and (ii) economics and commitment amounts to be mutually agreed upon by you and us. Fees payable to the syndicate of
Lenders shall be payable from the amounts payable pursuant to the Fee Letter.

Morgan Stanley reserves the right, prior to or after execution of the definitive documentation for the Senior Bank Financing, to syndicate all or part of its commitment for the Senior Bank Financing to one or more lending
institutions, in consultation with you, that will become parties 

2

to such definitive documentation pursuant to a syndication managed by Morgan Stanley; provided that (i) if you receive the Minimum Ratings (as defined in the Fee Letter),
you will have the right to consent to any lending institution that (x) is not a commercial bank or (y) you have previously identified to Morgan Stanley in writing, in each case prior to such lending institution becoming a member of the Senior Bank
Financing syndicate, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and (ii) you acknowledge that such syndicate will include financial institutions other than (and in addition to) those party to the Existing Credit Facilities. The
commitments of Morgan Stanley hereunder shall be reduced as and when commitments are received from the Lenders.  If requested, you agree to actively assist Morgan Stanley in achieving a syndication of the Senior Bank Financing that is satisfactory
to us and you. Such assistance shall include (i) your providing and causing your advisors to provide us and the Lenders, upon request and on a confidential basis, with all information reasonably deemed necessary by us to complete syndication,
including but not limited to information and evaluations prepared by you and your advisors or on your behalf relating to the Transaction; (ii) if needed, assistance in the preparation of an Offering Memorandum (which shall be acceptable to you) to
be used in connection with the syndication; (iii) your using commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the syndication efforts benefit materially from your and the Target’s existing lending relationships; and (iv) otherwise assisting us in
our syndication efforts, including by making senior management and advisors of the Borrower and its subsidiaries available, and using commercially reasonable best efforts to make the Target’s senior officers and representatives available, in
each case, from time to time to attend and make presentations regarding the business and prospects of the Borrower and its subsidiaries and the Target, as appropriate, at a reasonable number of meetings of prospective Lenders.  In addition, you
agree that until the Successful Syndication (as defined in the Fee Letter) of the Senior Bank Financing has occurred and the Lenders have executed and delivered the definitive documentation with respect to the Senior Bank Financing, no competing
offering, placement or arrangement of any bank financing by or on behalf of the Borrower or any of its subsidiaries shall be syndicated, privately placed or publicly offered, other than bilateral foreign currency facilities, the receivables facility
with Quest Diagnostics Receivables Incorporated, bilateral letter of credit and acceptance facilities replacing existing letter of credit and acceptance facilities, and other financings in the ordinary course of business of the Borrower and its
subsidiaries; provided that, to the extent any such other financings in the ordinary course constitute arrangements for borrowed money, the aggregate amount of such financings shall not
exceed $150,000,000. 

Subject to the condition that prior to the existence of an event of default you shall have the right to consent to any assignments (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), it is understood and agreed that Morgan Stanley, in
consultation with you, will manage all aspects of the syndication, including decisions as to the selection of proposed Lenders reasonably acceptable to you and any titles offered to proposed Lenders, when commitments will be accepted and the final
allocations of the commitments among the Lenders. It is understood that no Lender participating in the Senior Bank Financing will receive compensation from you in order to obtain its commitment, except on the terms contained in this Commitment
Letter and in the Fee Letter, it being understood that the foregoing is in no way intended to restrict the Borrower and its subsidiaries from entering into financing arrangements with, or paying compensation to, a Lender other than in connection
with the Senior Bank Financing, so long as such other financing arrangement is permitted hereunder.  It is also understood and agreed among all the parties

3

hereto that any syndication of the Senior Bank Financing will reduce the exposure of Morgan Stanley hereunder. 

You hereby represent, warrant and covenant that (i) all information, taken as a whole (excluding information of a general economic nature), other than the Projections (as defined below), which has been or is hereafter made
available to us or the Lenders by you or any of your representatives in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby (the "Information") is and will be complete and correct in
all material respects and does not and will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained therein not misleading, and (ii) all financial projections concerning the
Borrower and its subsidiaries or the Target that have been or are hereafter made available to us or the Lenders by you or any of your representatives (the "Projections") have been or
will be prepared in good faith based upon assumptions you believe at the time to be reasonable; provided that, with respect to the Projections, it is understood that actual results may
differ materially from any Projections provided. You agree to furnish us with such Information and Projections as we may reasonably request and to supplement such Information and the Projections from time to time until the Closing Date for the
Senior Bank Financing so that the representation, warranty and covenant in the preceding sentence is correct on such closing date.  You understand that in arranging and syndicating the Senior Bank Financing, Morgan Stanley will be using and relying
on the Information and the Projections without independent verification thereof.  The representations and covenants contained in this paragraph shall remain effective until definitive documentation with respect to the Senior Bank Financing is
executed and delivered and, thereafter, the disclosure representations contained herein shall terminate and be of no further force and effect.  You agree to continue to provide or cause to be provided to the Lenders material information received by
you or on your behalf or of which you become aware that is related to or affects the Borrower, the Target or any of their respective subsidiaries or any aspect of the Transaction. 

By acceptance of this offer, the Borrower agrees to pay all reasonable due diligence and legal expenses incurred before the date hereof and all reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and
expenses and due diligence expenses) incurred after the date hereof by us in connection with the Senior Bank Financing and the syndication thereof (whether of not the Senior Bank Financing is consummated). We agree to notify you of the then
outstanding legal fees incurred by us in connection herewith upon your request. 

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Morgan Stanley, MSCI, each Lender and each of their respective affiliates and their respective directors, officers, agents and employees (each an "Indemnitee") from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages, and costs and expenses of any kind arising out of or relating to this letter or the transactions contemplated hereby, the Senior
Bank Financing, the use of loan proceeds or the commitments, including without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel, which may be incurred by such Indemnitee in connection with any investigation, administrative, or judicial
proceeding (whether or not such Indemnitee shall be a designated party thereto); provided that no Indemnitee shall have the right to be indemnified hereunder for such Indemnitee's own, or
its affiliate’s or its directors’, officers’, agents’ and employees’, gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith as determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction. You
agree

4

to reimburse each Indemnitee for any such indemnified amounts as the same are incurred by such Indemnitee. In the case of an investigation, litigation or proceeding to which the indemnity in this paragraph applies, such indemnity
shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by you, your equity holders or creditors or an Indemnitee, whether or not an Indemnitee is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not the transactions
contemplated hereby are consummated. No Indemnitee shall be liable (i) for any action taken by it or not taken by it in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct, including any action or inaction in connection with the use by
others of Information or other materials obtained through the internet, Intralinks or other similar electronic telecommunications or other information transmission systems in connection with the Senior Bank Financing or (ii) for any special,
indirect, consequential, punitive, or indirect damages. This indemnification and limitation of liability shall survive and continue for the benefit of the Indemnitees at all times after the Borrower's acceptance of this Commitment Letter,
notwithstanding any failure of the Closing Date for the Senior Bank Financing to occur. It is further agreed that Morgan Stanley shall only have liability to you (as opposed to any other person) and that Morgan Stanley shall be liable solely in
respect of its own commitment to the Senior Bank Financing, and that such liability shall only arise to the extent damages have been caused by a breach of Morgan Stanley’s obligations hereunder to negotiate, in good faith, definitive
documentation for the Senior Bank Financing on the terms set forth herein, as determined in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction. 

The terms of this Commitment Letter, the Engagement Letter and the Fee Letter are confidential and, except for disclosure on a confidential basis to our and your respective accountants, attorneys and other professional advisors
retained in connection with the Senior Bank Financing or as may be required by law, rule or regulation or regulatory authority, may not be disclosed by any party hereto in whole or in part to any other person or entity without the prior written
consent of each other party hereto; provided that it is understood and agreed that you may disclose the terms of this Commitment Letter (but not the Fee Letter or the Engagement Letter) (i)
on a confidential basis to the board of directors and advisors of the Target in connection with their consideration of the Acquisition and (ii) after your acceptance hereof, in filings with the SEC and other applicable regulatory authorities, and in
proxy and other materials disseminated to stockholders.  In connection with and solely for the purposes of services and transactions contemplated hereby, you agree that Morgan Stanley is permitted to access, use and share with any of their bank or
non-bank affiliates, agents, advisors (legal or otherwise) or representatives or with any potential lenders in connection with the syndication of the Senior Bank Financing on a confidential basis, any information concerning the Borrower and its
subsidiaries related to this financing that is or may come into the possession of Morgan Stanley and MSCI or any of such affiliates. We hereby notify you that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act, Title III of Pub. L.
107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001) (the "Act"), we are
required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies you, which information includes your name and address and other information that will allow us to identify you in accordance with the Act. This notice is given in accordance with the
requirements of the PATRIOT Act and is effective as to Morgan Stanley and each Lender. In addition, it is a condition to our commitment hereunder that we receive, at least five business days prior to the Closing Date, all documentation and other
information required by regulatory authorities under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including without limitation the PATRIOT Act.

It is understood and agreed by all parties hereto that the Bridge Facility shall be refinanced in full by the Borrower as soon as reasonably practicable following the Closing Date. In connection therewith, the Borrower agrees in
good faith to take all such action as may be necessary to refinance or repay the entire amount of the funding under the Bridge Facility as soon as reasonably practicable after the closing thereof, including, without limitation, with the proceeds of
a senior note offering as set forth in the Engagement Letter. 

In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated by this Commitment Letter, you acknowledge and agree, and acknowledge your affiliates' understanding, that: (i) agreements and arrangements of the parties hereto
described in this letter result from arm's-length commercial negotiations between you and your affiliates, on the one hand, and Morgan Stanley and MSCI, on the other hand, and you are capable of evaluating and understanding and understand and accept
the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated by this letter; (ii) in connection with the process leading to the agreements and arrangements described herein, Morgan Stanley and MSCI is and has been acting solely as a principal
and is not the financial advisor, agent or fiduciary for you or any of your affiliates, stockholders, creditors or employees or any other party; (iii) neither Morgan Stanley nor MSCI has assumed or will assume an advisory, agency or fiduciary
responsibility in your or your affiliates' favor with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether either Morgan Stanley or MSCI advised or is currently advising you or your
affiliates on other matters) and neither Morgan Stanley nor MSCI has any obligation to you or your affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth in this Commitment Letter; (iv) Morgan
Stanley and MSCI and their respective affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from yours and your affiliates and Morgan Stanley and MSCI have no obligation to disclose any of such transactions or
interests by virtue of any advisory, agency or fiduciary relationship; and (v) Morgan Stanley and MSCI have not provided any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to any of the agreements, arrangements or transactions contemplated
hereby and you have consulted your own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent you have deemed appropriate. Nothing in this Commitment Letter is in any way intended to limit the scope of the engagement of Morgan Stanley or the
obligations of Morgan Stanley pursuant to its engagement by you as financial advisor in connection with the Acquisition, or your rights and remedies in connection therewith. 

You acknowledge and agree that in connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated by this Commitment Letter, you and your affiliates and Morgan Stanley and MSCI and any of their affiliates through which any of any of
them may be acting (each a “Transaction Affiliate”) have an arms-length business relationship that creates no fiduciary duty on the part of Morgan Stanley and MSCI or any
Transaction Affiliate and each party hereto expressly disclaims any fiduciary relationship. 

The provisions of the immediately preceding six paragraphs shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the termination of this letter or any commitment or undertaking hereunder and regardless of whether any definitive
documentation for the Senior Bank Financing shall be executed.

Bridge Loan Facility
		 

	
	
Commitment Amount:
		
A maximum amount of $1,100,000,000 in senior financing to be
	
	 

		
provided to the Borrower pursuant to a bridge loan facility (the “Bridge
	
	 

		
Loan Facility”). Loans made under the Bridge Loan Facility are herein
	
	 
	collectively referred to as “Bridge Loans”.
	 

	
	
Maturity and Amortization:
		
The final maturity of the Bridge Loan Facility shall be the date that is

Maturity Date”). The Bridge Loans will not amortize prior to the Bridge
	
	 

		
Loan Maturity Date. Bridge Loans shall be repaid in full on the Bridge
	
	 

		
Loan Maturity Date.
	
	 

	
	
Use of Proceeds:
		
Proceeds of the Bridge Loans shall be used to finance, in part, the

“Acquisition”), the refinancing of certain existing debt of the Borrower
	
	 

		
and the Target, including the Existing Credit Facilities, (collectively, the
	
	 

		
“Refinancing”), and all related transactions, including the payment of
	
	 

		
related fees, costs and expenses (collectively, the “Transaction”).

(the “Delayed Draw Bridge Loans”) may be borrowed pursuant to a
	
	 

		
second drawing on or prior to the 90th day following the Closing Date, or
	
	 

		
such later date as may be mutually agreed upon (the “Delayed Draw

Interest Rates:
		
At the option of the Borrower, Bridge Loans may be maintained from

plus the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time.
	
	 

	
	 

		
The “Applicable Margin” means the appropriate applicable percentages
	
	 

		
corresponding to the Debt Rating (as defined below) of the Borrower in
	
	 

		
effect as described on Annex I to this Summary of Terms and Conditions
	
	 

		
(this “Term Sheet”).

Loan Documentation”), or an event of default of the type described in
	
	 

		
clause 10 of the section entitled “Events of Default” below the
	
	 

		
Applicable Margin then in effect on all obligations owing under the
	
	 

		
Bridge Loan Documentation shall increase by 2% per annum; provided
	
	 

		
that, in any such event, Base Rate Loans shall be deemed to have an
	
	 

		
“Applicable Margin” of 2%.
	
	 

	
	 

		
Interest periods of 1, 2, 3 and 6 months shall be available in the case of

to the Debt Rating of the Borrower in effect as described on Annex I to
	
	 

		
this Term Sheet will accrue on the unused portion of Bridge Loan
	
	 

		
Facility commitments, payable quarterly in arrears and on the earliest of

3.0 COMMISSIONING TEST PLAN OUTLINE

     3.1 GENERAL OVERVIEW

The Commissioning phase of the SWEP 2A program will consist of a [**]. The
result of a successful review of test results is the Certificate of Completion
of Commissioning and an issuance of the Preliminary Acceptance Certificate
(PAC).

Commissioning shall be accomplished in order to determine compliance against the
SWEP Phase 2A Wave Power Station Requirement Specification. In accordance with
this specification, requirements require testing, demonstration, inspection, or
analysis for determination of compliance. When the compliance phase begins, the
Contractor will conduct testing and demonstrations for requirements that require
these determination methods. Evidence of compliance for requirements requiring
inspection or analysis will be reviewed in the Test Results stage, as discussed
below.

     3.2 TEST PLANNING

<PAGE>

The Contractor shall plan for the verification of requirements requiring testing
or demonstration in the Commissioning Test Plan. The Commissioning Test Plan
shall document, in sufficient detail, the conduct of the testing and shall
include Test Procedures for those tests that require them. Procedures generated
shall include:

     1)   Specific Descriptions of

          a)   Test Setup

INTRODUCTION

[**]

Protective relaying for this project follows the general relaying concepts to
provide the following:

     1.   Reliability - to meet system needs that dependably handle trouble

     2.   Selectivity - provide maximum continuity of service, isolate trouble
          spots and allow balance of system to operate

     3.   Speed - remove fault and minimize damage

     4.   Simplicity - minimum amount of equipment to provide maximum protection

     5.   Economy - minimum cost for maximum protection

The basic premises used for the relay scheme are as follows:

     1.   [**]

     2.   [**]

     3.   [**]

PROTECTION DESCRIPTION

[**]

[**] the [**] in the event that the [**] is damaged or develops an internal
fault. Relay operation will [**] the [**] and [**] from the [**] as well as [**]
the relay will not operate.

[**]

[**] provides [**] for the [**]. As indicated on the drawing, [**] have [**]
adding to the overall protection scheme. The [**] relay offers [**]. The relay
[**] on [**] when the [**], preventing [**]. Since the relay is of a [**] it
will be capable of providing [**] and [**] on the [**] of the [**]. Relay will
also provide [**] for the [**].

[**]

[**] are shown in this [**] is an [**] relay, an [**] that operates when the
[**] and a [**].

<PAGE>

The [**] relay is designed to [**] in the event that the [**] that would be
detrimental to the [**] and could potentially cause [**] from the [**].
Conversely the [**] would [**] from the [**] in the event that the [**] in the
system [**].

The [**] relay is placed into the system to [**]. This is required in the event
that the [**]. The possibility exists that there may be [**]. The [**] needs the
utility as a means for [**] and the [**] as long as the utility is [**]. Should
the [**] become [**] from the [**], the [**] supplied by the [**] will not have
a [**] and will not [**]. The [**] relay provides a simple and effective method
to [**] and [**] from the utility. The [**] is set to [**]. Since this should
not occur under normal conditions, [**].

[**]

Since the electrical equipment will be located in a submersible enclosure, it is
necessary to [**] relaying provides a high speed method to detect a [**]. The
[**] overlaps the [**] providing addition protection. As previously stated, the
[**] will [**] on [**] giving additional reliability for the system.

[**]

Each [**] located in the submersible enclosure is [**]. Each [**] is equipped
with a [**] will be [**] and also [**].

[**]

The [**]. The [**] will convert the [**]. The [**] is then converted to [**]
that will be [**]. The [**] has [**]. Additionally the [**] ahead of the [**]
will also act to as a [**].
