        	2. 	Deferred Stock
                Units. 

        	 	 

        	(a) 	CIGNA granted you [XXXX] Units
                effective as of the Grant Date. 

        	 	 

        	
                (b)

                  Unit represents your right to receive, under the terms and conditions
                  described in this Agreement, payment
                  of:

              

      

      

      
        	 	
                (1)

              	
                One
                  share of CIGNA common stock; and

              

      

      

      
        	 	
                (2)

              	
                Dividend
                  equivalents (described in paragraph 7) on one share of CIGNA common
                  stock
                  from the Grant Date until the Payment Date.

              

      

      

      
        	
                (c)

              	
                Your
                  right to Unit payments is subject to the conditions described in
                  this
                  Agreement, including the forfeiture provisions described in paragraphs
                  3
                  and 9.

              

      

       

      3. Regular
        Unit Vesting. The
        regular Vesting Date is August 6, 2009. You shall forfeit any Unit, and shall
        have no right to receive any payments related to that Unit, if your Termination
        of Employment occurs before the Vesting Date. The Units will vest on the
        regular
        Vesting Date unless:

      

      
        	
                (a)

              	
                The
                  Units vest on an accelerated Vesting Date as described in paragraph
                  4;

              

      

      

      
        	
                (b)

              	
                The
                  Units vest early as described in paragraph 5;
                  or

              

      

      

      
        	
                (c)

              	
                You
                  forfeit the Units.

              

      

       

      4. Accelerated
        Unit Vesting. If
        CIGNA
        achieves certain performance goals approved by the Committee on August 6,
        2003,
        the Units will vest on the earliest of the following accelerated Vesting
        Dates,
        as applicable: August 6, 2006; August 6, 2007 or August 6, 2008. The Committee
        will have sole authority to determine whether CIGNA has met those performance
        goals.

       

      5. Early
        Unit Vesting. If
        your
        Termination of Employment occurs before the Vesting Date and is due to your
        death or Disability or is a Termination upon a Change of Control, the forfeiture
        described in paragraph 3 shall not apply and the Units shall immediately
        become
        vested upon your Termination of Employment. If your Termination of Employment
        occurs before the Vesting Date and is due to your Retirement, the forfeiture
        described in paragraph 3 shall apply unless the Committee, in its sole
        discretion, decides that the Units shall immediately vest upon your Termination
        of Employment. 

       

      
        
          
          

        

        
          2

          
            

          

        

        
          
          

        

      

      6. Deferred
        Share Issuance. 
        Issuance
        of the shares described in paragraph 2(b)(1) will generally be deferred under
        the terms of the Deferred Plan until the Payment Date; however, CIGNA may
        issue
        and then withhold some shares when Units vest to meet tax withholding
        requirements under paragraph 16. CIGNA will issue the shares under Article
        9 of
        the Stock Plan as a grant in lieu of an award under a Qualifying Incentive
        Plan.
        This Agreement is a Qualifying Incentive Plan. Issuance of the Shares shall
        be
        subject to the deferral, vesting, forfeiture and other provisions of this
        Agreement and the Stock Plan. 

       

      7. Dividend
        Equivalents. 

      

      
        	
                (a)

              	
                From
                  the Grant Date until the Vesting Date, CIGNA shall pay you an amount
                  equal
                  to the per share dividend CIGNA pays on common stock for each Unit
                  granted
                  to you under paragraph 2 that has not yet become vested. CIGNA
                  shall pay
                  these amounts on or about each date that CIGNA makes dividend payments
                  with respect to shares of common stock, but in any event no later
                  than the
                  end of the year in which such dividends are
                  paid.

              

      

      

      
        	
                (b)

              	
                From
                  the Vesting Date until the Payment Date, CIGNA will credit an amount
                  equal
                  to the dividends CIGNA pays on each share of common stock to your
                  Deferred
                  Plan account for each vested Unit. CIGNA will pay you these deferred
                  dividend equivalents on the Payment Date under the terms of the
                  Deferred
                  Plan. During this deferral period CIGNA will also credit (or debit)
                  your
                  Deferred Plan account with hypothetical earnings (or losses) on
                  the
                  deferred dividend equivalents, as if you had voluntarily elected
                  to defer
                  the Unit shares under the Deferred Plan. CIGNA will base the hypothetical
                  earnings credits (or loss debits) on the provisions of the Deferred
                  Plan.
                  CIGNA will pay you any accumulated hypothetical earnings on the
                  Payment
                  Date.

              

      

      

      
        	
                (c)

              	
                Your
                  right to further payment of any dividend equivalents under paragraph
                  7
                  shall end immediately if you forfeit the
                  Units.

              

      

       

      8. Payments
        after Your Death. Notwithstanding
        the provisions of paragraph 6, if you die before CIGNA has issued all Unit
        shares to you and made all related dividend equivalent payments to you under
        this Agreement, CIGNA shall issue the Unit shares and make the dividend
        equivalent payments on the first day of the fourth month following the month
        of
        your death to your surviving spouse or, if you have no surviving spouse,
        to your
        estate.

       

      
        	
                9.

              	
                Forfeiture.

              

      

      

      
        	
                (a)

              	
                If
                  you have a Forfeiture Event, you shall forfeit any Unit, have no
                  right to
                  receive any shares or dividend equivalent payments related to that
                  Unit,
                  and shall be obligated to return to CIGNA (as described in paragraph
                  9(c))
                  any Unit shares that are issued to you. You will have a Forfeiture
                  Event
                  if you do any of the following at any time up to and including
                  the first
                  anniversary of the Vesting Date:

                  a Termination of Employment initiated by a CIGNA Company because
                  of your
                  misconduct;

                  or operate a business, or accept a job as an employee or independent
                  contractor with a business, that competes with any CIGNA Company,
                  unless
                  your Termination of Employment is initiated by a CIGNA Company
                  for reasons
                  other than your misconduct;

                  to persuade any employee or customer of any CIGNA Company to end
                  an
                  existing relationship, contractual or otherwise, with that company;
                  or

                  anything after your Termination of Employment that would, if you
                  were
                  still a CIGNA Company employee, be reason for your Termination

                The
                  Committee shall determine whether you have a Forfeiture Event.
                  Determinations of the Committee shall be final and binding on all

                If

                  to you
                  by any or all of the following methods that CIGNA management determines
                  are needed for CIGNA to recover all the Unit shares issued to
                  you.

              

      

      

      
        	 	
                (1)

              	
                When
                  a Forfeiture Event occurs, if you have any shares in your Stock
                  Account or
                  in any other account in book-entry form, you will forfeit up to
                  the number
                  of Unit shares issued to you.

                You
                  will deliver to CIGNA any shares you hold in certificate form (up
                  to the
                  number of Unit shares issued to you) within 30 days after the Forfeiture
                  Event.

                If
                  you do not then own enough shares, you will purchase shares (up
                  to the
                  number of Unit shares issued to you) and deliver them to CIGNA
                  within 30
                  days after the Forfeiture Event.

                In
                  the event of a stock dividend, stock split, or other subdivision
                  or
                  combination of CIGNA common stock, the Committee shall make a
                  proportionate adjustment in the number of shares under paragraph
                  2(b)(1)
                  and in the number of shares that form the basis of the dividend
                  equivalents under paragraph 2(b)(2).

                (b)

              	
                If
                  the outstanding shares of CIGNA common stock are changed or converted
                  into, exchanged or exchangeable for, a different number or kind
                  of shares
                  or other securities of CIGNA or of another corporation, by reason
                  of a
                  reorganization, merger, consolidation, reclassification or combination
                  (an
                  Event), the Committee shall make an appropriate adjustment in the
                  number
                  and/or kind of shares under paragraph 2(b)(1) and in the number
                  and/or
                  kind of shares that form the basis of the dividend equivalents
                  under
                  paragraph 2(b)(2), so that your proportionate interest under this
                  Agreement shall be maintained as before the Event. However, in
                  case of any
                  contemplated Event that may constitute a Change of Control, the
                  Committee,
                  with the approval of a majority of the members of the Board who
                  are not
                  then CIGNA Company employees, may modify any and all outstanding
                  Units so
                  as to accelerate, as a consequence of or in connection with the
                  Event, the
                  vesting of your Units. 

              

      

       

      11. Effect
        of Agreement.
        This
        Agreement is not a contract of employment for any specified term, and nothing
        in
        it is intended to change, and it shall not be construed as changing, the
        nature
        of your employment from an at-will relationship. This Agreement is limited
        to
        the terms and conditions that it includes and does not otherwise address
        your
        compensation or benefits, your duties and responsibilities, or any of CIGNA's
        rights as employer. This Agreement contains the entire agreement between
        you and
        CIGNA with respect to the matters addressed herein and fully replaces and
        supersedes all prior agreements or understandings between them related to
        such
        matters.

       

      12. Applicable
        Law. The
        Agreement is entered into in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, and at all
        times
        and for all purposes shall be interpreted, enforced and governed under its
        laws
        without regard to principles of conflict of laws.

       

      13. Arbitration
        of Disputes. CIGNA
        and
        you agree that any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this
        Agreement shall be settled exclusively by arbitration in Philadelphia,
        Pennsylvania, in accordance with the Employment Dispute Resolution Rules
        of the
        American Arbitration Association, as modified by Company. Copies of the
        Arbitration Policy and Rules and Procedures can be obtained from your Human
        Resources representative. A legal judgment based upon the Arbitrator’s award may
        be entered in any court having jurisdiction over the matter. 

       

      14. Successors.
        CIGNA's
        rights and obligations under this Agreement will inure to the benefit of,
        and be
        binding upon, CIGNA's successors and assigns. Your rights under this Agreement,
        including the right to receive Common Stock or any other payment, shall not
        be
        assignable or transferable by you except by will or by the laws of descent
        and
        distribution. Any other attempted assignment or alienation shall be void
        and of
        no force or effect.

      15. Funding
        of Payments. CIGNA's
        obligations under this Agreement to issue shares and make cash payments are
        unfunded and unsecured promises, and shall be considered as such for tax
        purposes and for purposes of the Employee Retirement Income and Security
        Act of
        1974. Cash shall be paid when due out of CIGNA’s general assets. 

       

      16. Withholding.
        You
        must
        satisfy any required tax withholding obligation when the Units vest and when
        the
        Units are paid, and CIGNA reserves the right to withhold enough shares to
        cover
        all or part of any applicable tax withholding.

       

      17. Changes
        to Agreement. Any
        amendment to this Agreement must be in writing and signed by both you and
        CIGNA.

      Maximum Amount of any such Letter of Credit from time to time on or before
      the
      Outside Expiry Date; provided

      each such issuance of, or increase in the Maximum Amount of, any Letter of

    (3)
      Each

      or any other circumstance whatsoever.

    

    (2)
      In
      consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Bank severally agrees

      under a Fronted Letter of Credit promptly upon the request of such Issuing
      Bank,
      through the Administrative Agent, at any time from the time of such
      LC Disbursement until such LC Disbursement is reimbursed by the
      Company in full or at any time after any reimbursement payment is required

    (3)

      Fronted Letter of Credit, the occurrence or continuance of any Default, any
      reduction or termination of the Commitments, any circumstance referred to in

      such payment to the relevant Issuing Bank or, to the extent that the Banks
      have
      made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse such Issuing Bank, then
      to
      such Banks and such Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. Any payment
      made
      by a Bank pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse an Issuing Bank for any
      LC Disbursement shall not relieve the Company of its obligation to
      reimburse such LC Disbursement.

      Disbursement under a Multi-Bank Letter of Credit by such Bank and (2) each
      Issuing Bank for the full amount of each LC Disbursement under a Fronted Letter
      of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, each such reimbursement to be made by
      paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to the amount of such LC
      Disbursement (i) not later than noon, New York City time, on the Business
      Day that the Company receives notice of such LC Disbursement if such notice
      is
      received by it prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, or (ii) not
      later than the Business Day immediately following the day that the Company
      receives such notice, if such notice is received by it on a day which is not
      a
      Business Day or is not received prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on
      a Business Day. If the Company fails to make such payment when due with respect
      to a Fronted Letter of Credit, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Bank
      of the applicable LC Disbursement under such Fronted Letter of Credit, the
      payment then due from the Company in respect thereof and such Bank's Applicable
      Percentage thereof. Reimbursements under this Section 2.02(a) may be made
      with the Company's funds or, subject to the terms and conditions of this
      Agreement, with the proceeds of a Borrowing.

    

    (b)
      LC
      Reimbursement Obligations Absolute.

    

    (1)
      The
      obligation of the Company to reimburse the Banks for LC Disbursements with
      respect to Multi-Bank Letters of Credit or the Issuing Banks with respect to
      Fronted Letters of Credit as provided in Section 2.02(a) shall be absolute,
      unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance
      with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including the
      following: (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of
      Credit, or of any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other
      document presented under the relevant Letter of Credit proving to be forged,
      fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue
      or
      inaccurate in any respect, or (iii) payment under the relevant Letter of
      Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply
      strictly with the terms of such Letter of Credit.

    

    (2)
      The
      Company shall be obligated to make the reimbursements provided for in this
      Section 2.02 in respect of each Letter of Credit regardless of the identity
      of the account party on such Letter of Credit.

    

    (3)
      Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Bank nor any Issuing Bank nor any
      of
      their respective directors, officers, employees or representatives shall have
      any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance
      or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any
      payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in
      the
      preceding clause), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in
      transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under
      or
      relating to any Letter of Credit, any error in interpretation of technical
      terms
      or any consequence arising from causes beyond their control; provided
      that the
      foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the Administrative Agent or a Bank
      or
      an Issuing Bank from liability to the Company to the extent of any direct
      damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are
      hereby waived by the Company to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered
      by the Company that are caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct
      of
      the Administrative Agent or such Bank or such Issuing Bank, as the case may
      be,
      or in the case of any Bank, its failure to make an LC Disbursement in respect
      of
      any drawing made in accordance with the terms and conditions of the relevant
      Letter of Credit and this Agreement. The parties expressly agree
      that:

    (A)
      the
      Administrative Agent and each Issuing Bank may accept documents that appear
      on
      their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of the relevant Letter
      of Credit without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any
      notice or information to the contrary, and may make payment upon presentation
      of
      documents that appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the
      terms of the relevant Letter of Credit;

    

    (B)
      the
      Administrative Agent or an Issuing Bank, as the case may be, shall have the
      right, in its sole discretion, to decline to accept such documents and to make
      such payment if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms
      of
      the relevant Letter of Credit; and

    

    (C)
      without prejudice to Section 9.02, this sentence shall establish the standard
      of
      care to be exercised by the Administrative Agent or an Issuing Bank, as the
      case
      may be, when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under
      any
      Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof (and the parties hereto hereby
      waive, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any standard of care
      inconsistent with the foregoing).

    

    SECTION
      2.03. LC
      Disbursement Procedures.
      The
      Administrative Agent and each Issuing Bank shall, within a reasonable time
      following its receipt thereof, examine any draft submitted by the Beneficiary
      under a Letter of Credit examine the same and promptly after such examination
      (i) notify the Company and, in the case of a Multi-Bank Letter of Credit,
      each Bank by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of receipt of such draft and
      (ii) deliver to the Company and each Bank, in the case of a Multi-Bank
      Letter of Credit, a copy thereof. With respect to any drawing properly made
      under any Multi-Bank Letter of Credit, each Bank will make an LC Disbursement
      in
      an amount equal to its Applicable Percentage of the amount of such drawing,
      such
      LC Disbursement to be made to the Administrative Agent's Account not later
      than
      1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date specified in such notification
      from the Administrative Agent (which shall be at least one Business Day after
      the date of such notification). The Administrative Agent (in the case of a
      Multi-Bank Letter of Credit) and the Issuing Bank (in the case of a Fronted
      Letter of Credit) will make the proceeds of each such LC Disbursement available
      to the relevant Beneficiary by promptly crediting the amounts so received,
      in
      like funds, to such account as such Beneficiary shall direct. Promptly following
      the making of any LC Disbursement, the Administrative Agent will notify the
      Banks and the Company thereof; provided
      that any
      failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve such Company
      of
      any of its obligations hereunder.

    SECTION
      2.04. Interest.
      Without
      prejudice to the obligations of the Company under Section 2.02, if the
      Company does not reimburse (a) the Banks for the full amount of an LC
      Disbursement under a Multi-Bank Letter of Credit or (b) the relevant
      Issuing Bank for the full amount of an LC Disbursement under a Fronted Letter
      of
      Credit on the date such LC Disbursement is made (without regard for when notice
      thereof is given), the Company agrees to pay interest on the LC Reimbursement
      Obligation relating to such LC Disbursement, for each day from the date such
      LC
      Disbursement is made until the date that the Company reimburses such LC
      Disbursement in full, at a rate per annum equal to 2% per annum plus
      the Base
      Rate from time to time, such interest to be payable on demand.

    

    SECTION
      2.05. Provision
      of Cover.

    

    (a)
      If
      there shall occur an Event of Default and the Company is as a result thereof
      required pursuant to Section 8.01 to provide cover for the Letters of Credit,
      the Administrative Agent will forthwith establish a separate collateral account
      (the "Collateral
      Account")
      at
      Citibank, which shall be a "securities account" (as defined in Section 8-501
      of
      the UCC) in respect of which the Administrative Agent is the "entitlement
      holder" (as defined in Section 8-102(a)(7) of the UCC), into which there shall
      be deposited from time to time the amounts paid to the Administrative Agent
      as
      cover.

    

    (b)
      As
      collateral security for the prompt payment in full when due of all LC
      Reimbursement Obligations (whether now existing or hereafter from time to time
      arising), all interest thereon, and all other present and future obligations
      of
      the Company to the Banks or the Issuing Banks and the Administrative Agent
      hereunder, the Company hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the
      benefit of the Banks and the Issuing Banks and the Administrative Agent, a
      security interest in all of its right, title and interest in, to and under
      the
      Collateral Account and the balances from time to time in the Collateral Account
      (including without limitation any and all securities and other financial assets
      from time to time carried therein) and any and all proceeds thereof (all such
      collateral being herein collectively called the "Cover").
      The
      balances from time to time in the Collateral Account shall not constitute
      payment of any obligation of the Company until applied by the Administrative
      Agent as provided herein. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary
      notwithstanding, funds held in the Collateral Account shall be subject to
      withdrawal only as provided in this Section 2.05.

    

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    -
      21
      -

     

    (c)
      Amounts on deposit in the Collateral Account shall be invested and reinvested
      by
      the Administrative Agent in such Permitted Investments as the Administrative
      Agent shall determine in its sole discretion. All such investments and
      reinvestments and proceeds shall be held in the name and be under the sole
      dominion and control of the Administrative Agent and shall be credited to the
      Collateral Account. 

    

    (d)
      At
      any time and from time to time while an Event of Default has occurred and is
      continuing, the Administrative Agent shall have the rights and remedies of
      a
      secured party under the UCC and, without limiting the foregoing, shall, if
      so
      instructed by the Majority Banks, liquidate the Cover and credit the proceeds
      thereof to the Collateral Account and apply or cause to be applied such proceeds
      and any other balances in the Collateral Account to the payment of the
      obligations secured thereby. 

    

    (e)
      When
      all of the obligations of the Company under this Agreement shall have been
      paid
      in full and each Letter of Credit has expired or been terminated and no
      Commitments remain in effect, the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver
      to
      the Company against receipt, but without recourse, warranty or representation
      whatsoever, the balances remaining in the Collateral Account.

    

    (f)
      The
      Company recognizes that, by reason of prohibitions contained in the Securities
      Act of 1933, as amended, and applicable state securities laws, the
      Administrative Agent may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any
      part of the Cover, to limit purchasers to those who will agree, among other
      things, to acquire the same for their own account for investment and not with
      a
      view to the distribution or resale thereof. The Company acknowledges that any
      such private sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the
      Administrative Agent than those obtainable through a public sale without such
      restrictions, and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such
      private sale shall be deemed to the extent permitted by applicable law to have
      been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that the Administrative Agent
      shall have no obligation to engage in public sales and no obligation to delay
      the sale thereof for the period of time necessary to permit the Company to
      register it for public sale.

    

    SECTION
      2.06. Replacement
      of an Issuing Bank.
      An
      Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement between the
      Company, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor
      Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Banks of any such
      replacement of an Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become
      effective, the Company shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for account of the
      replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 4.01(b). From and after the
      effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Bank
      shall have all the rights and obligations of the replaced Issuing Bank under
      this Agreement with respect to Fronted Letters of Credit to be issued by it
      thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term "Issuing Bank" shall be
      deemed to include such successor or any previous Issuing Bank, or such successor
      and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the
      replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain
      a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of
      an
      Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Fronted Letters of Credit
      issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue
      additional Fronted Letters of Credit.
      If an
      Issuing Bank is to be replaced with respect to an outstanding Fronted Letter
      of
      Credit that is issued by it, such replacement may be accomplished by
      (i) cancellation of the relevant outstanding Letter of Credit with the
      consent of the Beneficiary and simultaneous replacement thereof by the successor
      Issuing Bank or (ii) making other arrangements satisfactory to the replaced
      Issuing Bank to effectively assume the obligations of the replaced Issuing
      Bank
      with respect to such Fronted Letter of Credit and the replaced Issuing Bank
      shall to the extent thereof be released from its obligations as Issuing Bank
      with respect to such Fronted Letter of Credit.

    ADVANCES

     

    

    SECTION
      3.01. The
      Advances.
      

    

    (a)
      Each
      Bank severally agrees, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, to
      make Advances to the Company from time to time on any Business Day during the
      Revolving Credit Availability Period in an aggregate amount not to exceed at
      any
      one time outstanding such Bank's Revolving Credit Commitment.

    

    (b)
      Each
      Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount of $10,000,000 or an integral multiple
      of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (or, if less, the aggregate amount of the unused
      Revolving Credit Commitments) and shall consist of Advances of the same Type
      made on the same day by the Banks ratably according to their respective
      Commitments.

    

    (c)
      Within the limits of each Bank's Revolving Credit Commitment, the Company may
      borrow under this Section 3.01, prepay pursuant to Section 3.09 and reborrow
      under this Section 3.01.

    

    (d)
      Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, the sum of
      (i) the aggregate amount of the LC Exposures of all Banks plus
      (ii) the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Exposures of all Banks
      may not at any time exceed the Total Commitments.

    

    SECTION
      3.02. Making
      the Advances.

    

    (a)
      Each
      Borrowing shall be made on notice, given not later than 11:00 a.m. (New
      York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed
      Borrowing in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Eurodollar Rate Advances,
      or
      the date of the proposed Borrowing in the case of a Borrowing consisting of
      Base
      Rate Advances, by the Company to the Administrative Agent, which shall give
      to
      each Bank prompt notice thereof by telecopier or telex. Each such notice of
      a
      Borrowing (a "Notice
      of Borrowing")
      shall
      be by telecopier or telex, confirmed promptly in writing, in substantially
      the
      form of Exhibit B, specifying therein the requested (i) date of such
      Borrowing, (ii) Type of Advances comprising such Borrowing,
      (iii) aggregate amount of such Borrowing and (iv) in the case of a
      Borrowing consisting of Eurodollar Rate Advances, initial Interest Period for
      each such Advance. Each Bank shall, before 11:00 a.m. (New York City time),
      in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Eurodollar Rate Advances, or before
      1:00 p.m. (New York City time), in the case of a Borrowing consisting of
      Base Rate Advances, on the date of such Borrowing, make available for the
      account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Administrative Agent at the
      Administrative Agent's Account, in same day funds, such Bank's ratable portion
      of such Borrowing. After the Administrative Agent's receipt of such funds and
      upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, the
      Administrative Agent will make such same day funds available to the Company
      at
      the Company's account at the Administrative Agent's address referred to in
      Section 9.02; provided that Advances made to finance an LC Reimbursement
      Obligation as provided in Section 2.02 shall be remitted by the Administrative
      Agent to the respective Issuing Bank or the Banks as their interests may
      appear.

    

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    -
      23
      -

     

    (b)
      Anything in Section 3.02(a) to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) the Company
      may
      not select Eurodollar Rate Advances for any Borrowing if the aggregate amount
      of
      such Borrowing is less than $10,000,000 or if the obligation of the Banks to
      make Eurodollar Rate Advances shall then be suspended pursuant to Section 3.07
      and (ii) the Eurodollar Rate Advances may not be outstanding as part of more
      than three separate Borrowings.

    

    (c)
      Each
      Notice of Borrowing shall be irrevocable and binding on the
      Company.

    

    (d)
      Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Bank prior
      to
      the date of any Borrowing that such Bank will not make available to the
      Administrative Agent such Bank's ratable portion of such Borrowing, the
      Administrative Agent may assume that such Bank has made such portion available
      to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance
      Section 3.02(a) and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such
      assumption, make available to the Company on such date a corresponding amount.
      If and to the extent that such Bank shall not have so made such ratable portion
      available to the Administrative Agent, such Bank and the Company severally
      agree
      to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding
      amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount
      is
      made available to the Company until the date such amount is repaid to the
      Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of the Company, the interest rate
      applicable at the time to Advances comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in the
      case of such Bank, the Federal Funds Rate. If such Bank shall repay to the
      Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so repaid shall
      constitute such Bank's Advance as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this
      Agreement and shall be made available in same day funds to the Company's account
      at the Administrative Agent's address referred to in
      Section 9.02.

      24
      -

     

    (e)
      The
      failure of any Bank to make any LC Disbursement or any payment under
      Section 2.01(b)(2) or the Advance to be made by it as part of any Borrowing
      shall not relieve any other Bank of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make
      its LC Disbursement or payment or its Advance, but no Bank shall be responsible
      for the failure of any other Bank to make such LC Disbursement or payment or
      the
      Advance to be made by such other Bank.

     

    SECTION
      3.03. Notes.
      Any
      Bank
      may request that the Advances made or to be made by it be evidenced by a
      promissory note of the Company. In such event, the Company shall promptly
      prepare, execute and deliver to such Bank a promissory note payable to the
      order
      of such Bank, in substantially the form of Exhibit C (a "Note"),
      in an
      amount equal to the Commitment of such Bank and dated the date
      hereof.

    

    SECTION
      3.04. Termination
      or Reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments.

    

    (a)
      Unless
      previously terminated, the Commitments shall automatically terminate on the
      last
      day of the Revolving Credit Availability Period.

    

    (b)
      The
      Company may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce ratably in part,
      the Revolving Credit Commitments; provided that (i) any reduction of the
      Commitments shall be in the aggregate amount of $10,000,000 or an integral
      multiple of $5,000,000 in excess thereof and (ii) the Company shall not
      terminate or reduce the aggregate amount of the Commitments if, after giving
      effect thereto, the sum of the aggregate LC Exposures plus
      the
      aggregate principal amount of the Advances then outstanding would exceed the
      aggregate amount of the Commitments. No termination or reduction of any of

      Issuing Bank under an outstanding Letter of Credit or the obligations of any
      of
      the Banks under or in connection with any outstanding Letter of
      Credit.

      reduce the Commitments under Section 3.04(b) at least three Business Days

      3.05. Repayment
      of Advances and Evidence of Indebtedness.

    

    (a)
      The
      Company shall repay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of
      the
      Banks on the Final Maturity Date the aggregate principal amount of the Advances
      then outstanding.

    

    (b)
      Each
      Bank shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts
      evidencing the indebtedness of the Company to such Bank resulting from each
      Advance made by such Bank, including the amounts of principal and interest
      payable and paid to such Bank from time to time hereunder. The Administrative
      Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of
      each Advance made hereunder, the Type thereof and the Interest Period, if any,
      applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and
      payable or to become due and payable from the Company to each Bank hereunder
      and
      (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder
      for the account of the Banks and each Bank's share thereof. The entries made
      in
      the accounts maintained pursuant to this Section shall be prima facie
      evidence
      of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided
      that the
      failure of any Bank or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or
      any
      error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Company
      to
      repay the Advances in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 

    

    SECTION
      3.06. Interest
      on Advances.
      The
      Company shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Advance,
      from
      the date of such Advance until such principal amount shall be paid in full,
      at
      the following rates per annum:

    

    (a)
      Base
      Rate Advances.
      During
      such periods as such Advance is a Base Rate Advance, a rate per annum equal
      at
      all times to the Base Rate in effect from time to time, payable quarterly in
      arrears on the last day of each March, June, September and December and on
      the
      date such Base Rate Advance shall be Converted or paid in full.

    

    (b)
      Eurodollar
      Rate Advances.
      During
      such periods as such Advance is a Eurodollar Rate Advance, a rate per annum
      equal at all times during each Interest Period for such Advance to the sum
      of
      (x) the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period for such Advance plus
      (y) the Applicable Margin, payable in arrears on the last day of such
      Interest Period and, if such Interest Period has a duration of more than three
      months, on each day that occurs during such Interest Period every three months
      from the first day of such Interest Period and on the date such Advance shall
      be
      Converted or paid in full.

    

    (c)
      Default
      Interest.
      Notwithstanding Sections 3.06(a) and 3.06(b), upon the occurrence and during
      the
      continuance of an Event of Default, the Company shall pay interest on the
      outstanding principal amount of each Advance, and on the unpaid amount of all
      interest, fees and other amounts payable by the Company hereunder, such interest
      to be paid in arrears on the date such amount shall be paid in full and on
      demand, at a rate per annum equal at all times to (i) in the case of any
      amount of principal, 2% per annum above the rate per annum required to be paid
      pursuant to paragraph (a) or (b) above, as the case may be and (ii) in
      the case of all other amounts, 2% per annum above the Base Rate from time to
      time.

      Rate Determination.

    

    (a)
      If
      the Eurodollar Rate does not appear on Page 3750 of the Telerate Service (or
      any
      successor page), each Reference Bank agrees to furnish to the Administrative
      Agent timely information for the purpose of determining each Eurodollar Rate.
      If
      the Eurodollar Rate does not appear on said Page 3750 (or any successor page),
      and if any one or more of the Reference Banks shall not furnish such timely
      information to the Administrative Agent for the purpose of determining any
      such
      interest rate, the Administrative Agent shall determine such interest rate
      on
      the basis of timely information furnished by the remaining Reference Banks.
      The
      Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the Company and the Banks
      of
      the applicable interest rate determined by the Administrative Agent for purposes
      of Section 3.06(b), and the rate, if any, furnished by each Reference Bank
      for
      the purpose of determining the interest rate under Section 3.06(b).

    

    (b)
      If,
      with
      respect to any Eurodollar Rate Advances, the Majority Banks notify the
      Administrative Agent that the Eurodollar Rate for any Interest Period for such
      Advances will not adequately reflect the cost to such Majority Banks of making,
      funding or maintaining their respective Eurodollar Rate Advances for such
      Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith so notify the Company
      and the Banks, whereupon (i) such Eurodollar Rate Advances will
      automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor,
      Convert into Base Rate Advances, and (ii) the obligation of the Banks to
      make, or to Convert Advances into, Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended
      until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Company and the Banks that
      the
      circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist.

    

    (c)
      If
      the Company shall fail to select the duration
      of any
      Interest Period for any Eurodollar Rate Advances in accordance with the
      provisions contained in the definition of "Interest Period" in Section 1.01,
      the
      Administrative Agent will forthwith so notify the Company and the Banks and
      the
      Company will be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one
      month.

    

    (d)
      If
      the aggregate unpaid principal amount of Eurodollar Rate Advances comprising
      any
      Borrowing shall be reduced, by payment or prepayment or otherwise, to less
      than
      $10,000,000, such Advances shall automatically Convert into Base Rate Advances
      on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

    

    (e)
      If
      the
      Eurodollar Rate does not appear on Page 3750 of the Telerate Service (or any

      3.08. Optional
      Conversion of Advances.
      The

      not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the third Business Day
      prior to the date of the proposed Conversion, Convert all Advances of one Type
      comprising the same Borrowing into Advances of the other Type or Continue
      Eurodollar Rate Advances (and in the absence of timely notice of Continuation,
      such Eurodollar Rate Advances shall Convert to Base Rate Advances on the last
      day of the then current Interest Period); provided,
      however,
      that
      any Conversion of Eurodollar Rate Advances into Base Rate Advances shall be
      made
      only on the last day of an Interest Period for such Eurodollar Rate Advances,
      any Conversion of Base Rate Advances into Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be
      in
      an amount not less than the minimum amount specified in Section 3.02(b) and
      no
      Conversion of any Advances shall result in more separate Borrowings than
      permitted under Section 3.02(b). Each such notice of a Conversion shall, within
      the restrictions specified above, specify (i) the date of such Conversion,
      (ii)
      the Advances to be Converted, and (iii) if such Conversion is into Eurodollar

      time), in the case of Base Rate Advances, and upon not less than two Business
      Days' notice, in the case of Euro dollar Rate Advances, to the Administrative
      Agent stating the proposed date and aggregate principal amount of the
      prepayment, and if such notice is given the Company shall, prepay the
      outstanding principal amount of the Advances comprising part of the same
      Borrowing in whole or ratably in part, together with accrued interest to the
      date of such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid; provided,
      however, that (x) each partial prepayment shall be in an aggregate principal
      amount of $10,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof
      and (y) in the event of any such prepayment of a Eurodollar Rate Advance, the

      The

    SECTION
      4.02. Increased
      Costs.

    

    (a)
      If,
      due to either (i) the introduction of or any change in any law or regulation
      or
      in the interpretation or administration of any law or regulation by any
      governmental authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof
      or (ii) the compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank
      or
      other governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law), there
      shall be any increase in the cost to any Bank of agreeing to make or making,
      funding or maintaining Eurodollar Rate Advances by an amount deemed by such
      Bank
      to be material, then the Company shall from time to time, upon demand by such
      Bank (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to the
      Administrative Agent for the account of such Bank additional amounts sufficient
      to compensate such Bank for such increased cost. A certificate as to the amount
      of such increased cost submitted to the Company and the Administrative Agent
      by
      such Bank shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest
      error. 

    

    (b)
      If
      any Bank determines that compliance with any law or regulation or any guideline
      or request from any central bank or other governmental authority (whether or
      not
      having the force of law) affects or would affect the amount of capital required
      or expected to be maintained by such Bank or any company controlling such Bank
      and that the amount of such capital is increased by or based upon the existence
      of such Bank's Commitment or the Letters of Credit or the Advances, then, upon
      demand by such Bank (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent),
      the Company shall immediately pay to the Administrative Agent for the account
      of
      such Bank, from time to time as specified by such Bank, additional amounts
      sufficient to compensate such Bank or such corporation in the light of such
      circumstances, to the extent that such Bank reasonably determines such increase
      in capital to be allocable to the existence thereof. A certificate as to such
      amounts submitted to the Company and the Administrative Agent by such Bank
      shall
      be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

    

    SECTION
      4.03. Illegality.
      Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Bank shall notify
      the Administrative Agent that the introduction of or any change in or in the
      interpretation of any law or regulation makes it unlawful, or any central bank
      or other governmental authority asserts that it is unlawful, for such Bank
      or
      its Eurodollar Lending Office to perform its obligations hereunder to make
      Eurodollar Rate Advances or to fund or maintain Eurodollar Rate Advances
      hereunder, (i) each Eurodollar Rate Advance of such Bank will automatically,
      upon such demand, Convert into a Base Rate Advance and (ii) the obligation
      of
      such Bank to make, or to Convert Advances into, Eurodollar Rate Advances shall
      be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Company and such
      Bank that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist and such
      Bank shall make the Base Rate Advances in the amount and on the dates that
      it
      would have been requested to make Eurodollar Rate Advances had no such
      suspension been in effect.

      Company shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether
      of
      principal of, or interest on, the Advances, fees, LC Reimbursement Obligations
      or otherwise) prior to 1:00 p.m. New York City time, on the day when due,
      in Dollars and immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim.
      Any
      amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the
      Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding
      Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon.

    

    (b)
      All
      such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative
      Agent's Account, except that payments pursuant to Section 10.04 shall be made
      directly to the Persons entitled thereto and except payments to be made directly
      to an Issuing Bank as expressly provided herein. The Administrative Agent shall
      distribute any such payments received by it for account of any other Person
      to
      the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof.

    

    (c)
      If
      any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the
      date
      for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, in the
      case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for
      the
      period of such extension.

    

    (d)
      Upon
      its acceptance of an Assignment and Assumption and recording of the information
      contained therein in the register maintained by the Administrative Agent
      pursuant to Section 9.06(b), from and after the effective date specified in
      such
      Assignment and Assumption, the Administrative Agent shall make all payments
      hereunder in respect of the interest assigned thereby to the Bank assignee
      thereunder, and the parties to such Assignment and Assumption shall make all
      appropriate adjustments in such payments for periods prior to such effective
      date directly between themselves.

    

    (e)
      If at
      any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative
      Agent to pay fully all amounts then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied
      (i) first, to pay costs and expenses, if any, of the Administrative Agent
      required to be reimbursed hereunder, (ii) second, to pay interest and fees
      then

    (f)
      All
      computations of interest based on the Base Rate shall be made by the
      Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case
      may
      be, and all computations of interest based on the Eurodollar Rate or the Federal
      Funds Rate and of commitment fees, and of letter of credit commissions shall
      be
      made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days, in each
      case for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the
      last day) occurring in the period for which such interest or commitment fees,
      or
      letter of credit commissions are payable. Each determination by the
      Administrative Agent of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and
      binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

    

    (g)
      Except to the extent otherwise provided herein (i) each payment of
      principal of Advances shall be for the pro rata
      account
      of the Banks in accordance with the amounts of the Advances made by them,
      (ii) each reimbursement of LC Disbursements shall be for the pro rata
      account
      of the Banks in accordance with the amounts of the LC Disbursements made by
      them, (iii) each payment of commitment fee and letter of credit commission
      shall
      be for the pro rata
      account
      of the Banks, and each increase or reduction of the Maximum Amount or reduction
      of the amount of the Commitments under Section 3.04 shall be applied
pro rata
      to the
      respective obligations of the Banks, according to their respective Applicable
      Percentages; and (iv) each payment of interest shall be made for the
pro rata
      account
      of the Banks in accordance with the amounts of interest then due and payable
      to
      them. 

    

    (h)
      Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Company
      prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for
      account of the Banks hereunder that the Company will not make such payment,
      the
      Administrative Agent may assume that the Company made such payment on such
      date
      in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute
      to
      the Banks the amount due. In such event, if the Company has not in fact made
      such payment, then each of the Banks severally agrees to repay to the
      Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such
      Bank
      with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed
      to
      it to the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds
      Rate.

    

    SECTION
      4.05. Taxes.
      

    

    (a)
      Any
      and all payments by the Company hereunder and under the Notes shall be made
      free
      and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes,
      levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with
      respect thereto, excluding,
      in the
      case of each Bank, each Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent, taxes imposed
      on its income, and franchise taxes imposed on it, by the jurisdiction under
      the
      laws of which such Bank, such Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent (as
      the
      case may be) is organized or any political subdivision thereof and, in the
      case
      of each Bank and each Issuing Bank, taxes imposed on its income, and franchise
      taxes imposed on it, by the jurisdiction of such Bank's or such Issuing Bank's
      Applicable Lending Office or any political subdivision thereof (all such
      non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and
      liabilities being hereinafter referred to as "Taxes").
      If
      the Company shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect
      of
      any sum payable hereunder or under the Notes to any Bank, any Issuing Bank
      or
      the Administrative Agent, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as may be
      necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions
      applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 4.05) such Bank, such
      Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount
      equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii)
      the Company shall make such deductions and (iii) the Company shall pay the
      full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority
      in
      accordance with applicable law.

    

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    -
      32
      -

     

    (b)
      In
      addition, the Company agrees to pay any present or future stamp or documentary
      taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies which
      arise from any payment made hereunder or from the execution, delivery or
      registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement and the Notes
      (hereinafter referred to as "Other Taxes").

    

    (c)
      The
      Company will indemnify each Bank, and the Administrative Agent for the full
      amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes and
      Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section
      4.05) paid by such Bank, or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) and
      any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom
      or
      with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly
      or
      legally asserted. This indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the
      date such Bank, or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) makes written
      demand therefor. A certificate as to the amount of such Taxes and Other Taxes,
      submitted to the Company and the Administrative Agent by such Bank shall be
      conclusive and binding (as between the Company, the Banks and the Administrative
      Agent) for all purposes, absent manifest error. Nothing herein shall preclude
      the Company from contesting the applicability of any Taxes or Other Taxes as
      against any governmental entity, and each Bank and the Administrative Agent
      agree to cooperate in such manner as the Company may reasonably request in
      contesting any such Taxes or Other Taxes (provided
      that
      neither any Bank nor the Administrative Agent shall be required to so cooperate
      with the Company to the extent such Bank or the Administrative Agent believes
      (in its sole discretion) that (i) such Taxes or Other Taxes have been
      correctly asserted or (ii) such cooperation would be disadvantageous to it
      in
      any way).

    

    (d)
      Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Taxes, the Company will furnish
      to the Administrative Agent, at its address referred to in Section 10.02,
      the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof or
      other proof of payment of such Taxes reasonably satisfactory to the relevant
      Bank(s). If no Taxes are payable in respect of any payment hereunder upon the
      request of the Administrative Agent the Company will furnish to the
      Administrative Agent, at such address, a statement to such effect with respect
      to each jurisdiction designated by the Administrative Agent.

    (e)
      Each
      Bank organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States,
      on or
      prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement (in the case
      of each Initial Bank) and on the date of the Assignment and Assumption pursuant
      to which it becomes a Bank (in the case of each other Bank), and from time
      to
      time thereafter if requested in writing by the Company (but only so long as
      such
      Bank remains lawfully able to do so), shall provide the Company with Internal
      Revenue Service form W-8ECI or W-8BEN, as appropriate, or any successor form
      prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, certifying that such Bank is
      entitled to benefits under an income tax treaty to which the United States
      is a
      party which reduces the rate of withholding tax on payments of interest or
      certifying that the income receivable pursuant to this Agreement is effectively
      connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States. If
      the
      form provided by a Bank at the time such Bank first becomes a party to this
      Agreement indicates a United States interest withholding tax rate in excess
      of
      zero, withholding tax at such rate shall be considered excluded from "Taxes"
      as
      defined in Section 4.05(a).

    

    (f)
      For
      any period with respect to which a Bank has failed to provide the Company with
      the appropriate form described in Section 4.05(e) (other than if such failure
      is
      due to a change in law occurring subsequent to the date on which a form
      originally was required to be provided, or if such form otherwise is not
      required under the first sentence of subsection (e) above), such Bank shall
      not be entitled to indemnification under Section 4.05(a) with respect to Taxes
      imposed by the United States; provided, however, that should a Bank become
      subject to Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form required hereunder,
      the Company shall take such steps as the Bank shall reasonably request to assist
      the Bank to recover such Taxes.

    

    (g)
      Any
      Bank claiming any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 4.05
      shall use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal
      and
      regulatory restrictions) to change the jurisdiction of its Applicable Lending
      Office(s) if the making of such a change would avoid the need for, or reduce
      the
      amount of, any such additional amounts that may thereafter accrue and would
      not,
      in the reasonable judgment of such Bank, be otherwise disadvantageous to such
      Bank.

      6.01. Representations
      and Warranties of the Company.
      The
      Company represents and warrants to the Banks and the Administrative Agent as
      follows:

    

    (a)
      The
      Company (i) is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good
      standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, (ii) is duly qualified and
      in
      good standing as a foreign corporation in each other jurisdiction in which
      it
      owns or leases property or in which the conduct of its business requires it
      to
      so qualify or be licensed and where, in each case, failure so to qualify and
      be
      in good standing could have a Material Adverse Effect and (iii) has all
      requisite corporate power and authority to own or lease and operate its property
      and to carry on its business as now conducted and as proposed to be
      conducted.

    (b)
      The
      execution, delivery and performance by the Company of this Agreement and the
      Notes are within the Company's corporate powers, have been duly authorized
      by
      all necessary corporate action, and do not (i) contravene the Company's
      charter or by-laws, (ii) contravene any contractual restriction binding on
      the
      Company or (iii) violate any law, rule or regulation (including, without
      limitation, the Securities Act of 1933 and the Exchange Act and the regulations
      thereunder and Regulations U and X issued by the Board of Governors of the
      Federal Reserve System, each as from time to time amended), or order, writ,
      judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award.

    

    (c)
      No
      authorization or approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with,
      any governmental authority or regulatory body is required for the due execution,
      delivery and performance by the Company of this Agreement and the

      the
      Company in accordance with its terms.

    

    (e)
      The
      Company has heretofore furnished to each of the Banks (i) the consolidated
      balance sheet of the Company and its Subsidiaries as at December 31, 2005,
      and the related consolidated statements of income and retained earnings of
      the
      Company and its Consolidated Subsidiaries for the fiscal year then ended, with
      the opinion thereon of PricewaterhouseCoopers, LLP and (ii) the unaudited
      consolidated balance sheet of the Company and its Subsidiaries as at
      March 31, 2006 and the related statements of consolidated income and
      retained earnings of the Company and its Consolidated Subsidiaries for the
      three-month period ended on said date. All such financial statements fairly
      present the consolidated financial condition of the Company and its Consolidated
      Subsidiaries as at such dates and the results of the operations of the Company
      and its Consolidated Subsidiaries for the fiscal year and three-month period
      ended on such dates (subject, in the case of such financial statements as at
      March 31, 2006, to normal year-end audit adjustments), all in accordance
      with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied. Since
      December 31, 2005, no Material Adverse Change has occurred, except as may
      have been disclosed in the Company's form 10-K filed with the Securities
      and Exchange Commission for the period ending December 31, 2005.

    

    (f)
      Except for the Disclosed Litigation, there is no pending or threatened action
      or
      proceeding affecting the Company or any of its Material Subsidiaries before
      any
      court, governmental agency or arbitrator which (i) is reasonably likely to
      have
      a Material Adverse Effect or (ii) purports to affect this Agreement or the
      transactions contemplated hereby; and since the date of this Agreement there
      has
      been no adverse change in the status, or financial effect on the Company or
      any
      of its Subsidiaries, with respect to the Disclosed Litigation.

    

    (g)
      The
      Company is not engaged in the business of extending credit for the purpose
      of
      buying or carrying Margin Stock, and no part of the proceeds of any Advance
      hereunder will be used, directly or indirectly, for the purpose, whether
      immediate, incidental or ultimate, of buying or carrying any Margin
      Stock.

      the

    THE
      ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

     

    

    SECTION
      9.01. Authorization
      and Action.
      Each
      Bank
      hereby appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action
      as
      administrative agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this
      Agreement as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof,
      together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. As to any
      matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement, the Administrative Agent
      shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall
      be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected
      in so
      acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Majority Banks,
      and such instructions shall be binding upon all Banks; provided,
      however,
      that
      the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action which exposes
      the Administrative Agent to personal liability or which is contrary to this
      Agreement or applicable law.

    

    SECTION
      9.02. Administrative
      Agent's Reliance, Etc.  Neither
      the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees
      shall be liable to the Banks for any action taken or omitted to be taken by
      it
      or them under or in connection with this Agreement, except for its or their
      own
      gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the generality
      of
      the foregoing, the Administrative Agent: (i) may consult with legal counsel
      (including counsel for the Company), independent public accountants and other
      experts selected by it and shall not be liable to the Banks for any action
      taken
      or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of
      such
      counsel, accountants or experts; (ii) makes no warranty or representation to
      any
      Bank and shall not be responsible to any Bank for any statements, warranties
      or
      representations (whether written or oral) made in or in connection with this
      Agreement; (iii) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the
      performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this
      Agreement on the part of the Company or to inspect the property (including
      the
      books and records) of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; (iv) shall
      not be responsible to any Bank for the due execution (other than its own),
      legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this
      Agreement or any related agreement, instrument or document furnished pursuant
      hereto; and (v) shall incur no liability to the Banks under or in respect
      of this Agreement by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other
      instrument or writing (which may be by telecopier, telegram, cable or telex)
      reasonably believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party
      or parties.

    SECTION
      9.03. Citibank
      and Affiliates.
      With
      respect to its Commitments Citibank shall have the same rights and powers under
      this Agreement as any other Bank and may exercise the same as though it were
      not
      the Administrative Agent, and the term "Bank" or "Banks" shall, unless otherwise
      expressly indicated, include Citibank in its individual capacity. Citibank
      and
      its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as trustee under
      indentures of, and generally engage in any kind of business with, the Company,
      any of its Subsidiaries and any Person who may do business with or own
      securities of the Company or any such Subsidiary, all as if Citibank were not
      the Administrative Agent and without any duty to account therefor to the
      Banks.

    

    SECTION
      9.04. Bank
      Credit Decision.
      Each
      Bank
      acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the
      Administrative Agent or any other Bank and based on the financial statements
      referred to in Section 6.01 and such other documents and information as it
      has
      deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into
      this
      Agreement. Each Bank also acknowledges that it will, independently and without
      reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Bank and based on such
      documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue
      to
      make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this
      Agreement.

    

    SECTION
      9.05. Indemnification.
      The
      Banks
      agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by
      the
      Company), ratably according to the respective amounts of their Commitments
      as
      most recently in effect, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations,
      losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or
      disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred
      by, or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or
      arising out of this Agreement or any action taken or omitted by the
      Administrative Agent under this Agreement, provided
      that no
      Bank 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. Without limiting the foregoing, each Bank agrees to reimburse the
      Administrative Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any
      out-of-pocket expenses (including counsel fees) incurred by the Administrative
      Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration,
      modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal
      proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or
      responsibilities under, this Agreement, to the extent that the Administrative
      Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by the Company.

    

    SECTION
      9.06. Successor
      Administrative Agent.
      The
      Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof
      to
      the Banks and the Company and may be removed at any time with or without cause
      by the Majority Banks. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Majority Banks
      shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent that, unless
      a
      Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and then be continuing, is
      reasonably acceptable to the Company. If no successor Administrative Agent
      shall
      have been so appointed by the Majority Banks, and shall have accepted such
      appointment, within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent's giving
      of
      notice of resignation or the Majority Banks' removal of the retiring
      Administrative Agent, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf
      of
      the Banks, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a commercial
      bank organized under the laws of the United States of America or of any State
      thereof and having total assets of at least $1,000,000,000. Upon the acceptance
      of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor
      Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon
      succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties
      of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent
      shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement. After
      any retiring Administrative Agent's resignation or removal hereunder as
      Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article VII shall inure to its
      benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was
      Administrative Agent under this Agreement.

      trustee under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, in respect of any
      securities issued or guaranteed by the Company, the parties hereto acknowledge
      and agree that any payment or property received in satisfaction of or in respect
      of any obligation of the Company hereunder or under any Letter of Credit by

      obligations of the Company under Sections 2.02(a), 4.02, 4.05, and 10.04,
      and the obligations of the Banks under Section 9.05, shall survive the
      repayment of the LC Reimbursement Obligations, the expiration or termination
      of
      the Letters of Credit, the termination of the Commitments and the payment in
      full of principal, interest and all other amounts payable hereunder. In
      addition, each representation and warranty made, or deemed to be made by any
      Notice of Borrowing, Notice of Issuance or Notice of Increase, herein or
      pursuant hereto shall survive the making of such representation and warranty,
      and no Bank shall be deemed to have waived, by issuing a Letter of Credit or
      making an Advance, any Default or Event of Default that may arise by reason
      of
      such representation or warranty proving to have been false or misleading,
      notwithstanding that such Bank, any Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent
      may
      have had notice or knowledge or reason to believe that such representation
      or
      warranty was false or misleading at the time such extension of credit was
      made.

    

    SECTION
      10.11. Sharing
      of Set-Offs, Etc.

    

    (a)
      Without limiting any of the rights or obligations of the Administrative Agent
      or
      the Banks or the rights or obligations of the Company hereunder, if the Company
      shall fail to pay when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or
      otherwise) any amount payable by it hereunder, each Bank is hereby authorized
      at
      any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, without
      prior notice to the Company (which notice is expressly waived by the Company
      to
      the fullest extent permitted by applicable law), to set off and appropriate
      and
      apply against such amount any and all deposits (general or special, time or
      demand, provisional
      or
      final, in any currency, matured or unmatured) and any other obligations at
      any
      time held or owing by such Bank or any Subsidiary, Affiliate, branch or agency
      thereof to or for the credit or account of the Company. Such Bank shall promptly
      provide notice to the Company of such set-off, provided,
      that
      failure by such Bank to provide such notice to the Company shall not give the
      Company any cause of action or right to damages or affect the validity of such
      set-off and application. The rights of each Bank under this Section are in
      addition to any other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, any
      other rights of set-off) that such Bank may have.

      -

     

    (b)
      Each
      Bank agrees that if it shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim
      or otherwise, receive payment of a proportion of the aggregate LC Reimbursement
      Obligations or the Advances or interest due with respect thereto in excess
      of
      its pro rata
      share
      thereof the Bank receiving such proportionately
      greater
      payment shall purchase such participations from the other Banks, and/or such
      other adjustments shall be made, as may be required so that all such payments
      shall be shared by the Banks pro rata
      as
      provided in this Agreement; provided
      that
      nothing in this Section shall impair the right of any Bank to exercise any
      right
      of set-off or counterclaim it may have and to apply the amount thereof to the
      payment of indebtedness of the Company other than its indebtedness under this
      Agreement. The
      Company agrees, to the fullest extent it may effectively do so under applicable
      law, that any holder of a participation under this clause may exercise rights
      of
      set-off or counterclaim and other rights with respect to such participation
      as
      fully as if such holder of a participation were a direct creditor of the Company
      in the amount of such participation.

    

    SECTION
      10.12. Waiver
      of Jury Trial.
      EACH
      OF
      THE COMPANY, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE BANKS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES,
      TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL
      BY
      JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR
      THE
      TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

    

    SECTION
      10.13. Confidentiality.  Neither
      the Administrative Agent nor any Bank shall disclose any Confidential
      Information to any Person without the consent of the Company, other than
      (a) to the Administrative Agent's or such Bank's Affiliates and their
      officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors and to actual or prospective
      assignees and participants, and then only on a confidential basis, (b) to
      the extent required by any applicable law, rule or regulation or judicial
      process, (c) to any rating agency when required by it, (d) to any other
      party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder,
      (f)
      subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those
      of
      this paragraph, to any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective
      assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this
      Agreement and (g) as requested or required by any state, federal or foreign
      authority or examiner or self-regulatory body regulating banks or
      banking.
