(iii)          Borrower, the Administrative Agent, and the Lenders hereby agree that upon the effectiveness of this Agreement, the terms and provisions of the Existing Credit Agreement which in any manner govern or evidence the Obligations, the rights and interests of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and any terms, conditions or matters related to any thereof, shall be and hereby are amended and restated in their entirety by the terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement, and the terms and provisions of the Existing Credit Agreement, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, shall be superseded by this Agreement.

to Section 10.6. Subject to the foregoing and other terms and conditions hereof, Borrower may borrow, Convert, Continue, prepay and reborrow Committed Loans as set forth herein without premium or penalty

(b)                                 Loans made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more loan accounts or records maintained by such Lender in the ordinary course of business. Upon the request of any Lender made through Administrative Agent, such Lender’s Loans may be evidenced by one or more Committed Loan Notes, instead of or in addition to loan accounts. (Each such Lender may endorse on the schedules annexed to its Committed Loan Note(s) the date, amount and maturity of its Committed Loans and payments with respect thereto.) Such loan accounts, records or Committed Loan Notes shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of such Loans and payments thereon. Any failure so to record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of Borrower to pay any amount owing with respect to the Loans.

2.2                                 Borrowings, Conversions and Continuations of Committed Loans.

(a)                                  Borrower may irrevocably request a Borrowing, Conversion or Continuation of Committed Loans in a Minimum Amount therefor by delivering a duly completed Request for Extension of Credit therefor by Requisite Notice to Administrative Agent not later than the Requisite Time therefor. All Borrowings, Conversions or Continuations shall constitute Base Rate Loans unless properly and timely otherwise designated as set forth in the preceding sentence.

(b)                                 Promptly following receipt of a Request for Extension of Credit, Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of its Pro Rata Share thereof by Requisite Notice. In the case of a Borrowing of Loans, each Lender shall make the funds for its Loan available to Administrative Agent at Administrative Agent’s Office not later than the Requisite Time therefor on the Business Day specified in such Request for Extension of Credit. Upon satisfaction or waiver of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 4, all funds so received shall be made available to Borrower in like funds received.

(c)                                  Administrative Agent shall promptly notify Borrower and Lenders of the Eurodollar Rate applicable to any Eurodollar Rate Loan upon determination thereof.

(d)                                 Unless Administrative Agent and the Requisite Lenders otherwise consent, Loans with no more than ten different Interest Periods shall be outstanding at any one time.

(e)                                  Without limiting the requirements of Section 4.2, no Loans other than Base Rate Loans may be requested or continued during the existence of an Event of Default. During the existence of an Event of Default, the Requisite Lenders may determine that any or all of the then outstanding Committed Loans other than Base Rate Loans shall be Converted to Base Rate Loans.  Such Conversion shall be effective upon notice to Borrower from Administrative Agent and shall continue so long as such Event of Default continues to exist.

32

(f)                                    If a Loan is to be made on the same date that another Loan is due and payable, Borrower or Lenders, as the case may be, shall make available to Administrative Agent the net amount of funds giving effect to both such Loans and the effect for purposes of this Agreement shall be the same as if separate transfers of funds had been made with respect to each such Loan.

(g)                                 The failure of any Lender to make any Loan on any date shall not relieve any other Lender of any obligation to make a Loan on such date, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan.

2.3                                 Swing Line.

(a)                                  Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swing Line Lender agrees, in reliance upon the agreements of the other Lenders set forth in this Section 2.3, from time to time through the day prior to the Maturity Date to make Swing Line Loans to Borrower in such amounts as Borrower may request, provided that (i) after giving effect to such Swing Line Loan, the Swing Line Outstandings do not exceed the Swing Line Sublimit, (ii) without the consent of all of Lenders, no Swing Line Loan may be made during the continuation of an Event of Default and (iii) the Swing Line Lender has not given at least 24 hours prior notice to Borrower that availability under the Swing Line is suspended or terminated; provided, further, that after giving effect to any Swing Line Loan, (x) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of all Loans and Letter of Credit Usage shall not exceed the Aggregate Commitments, and (y) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Committed Loans of any Lender, plus such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of all Letter of Credit Usage, plus such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of all Swing Line Loans shall not exceed such Lender’s Commitment; and provided, further, that the Swing Line Lender shall not make any Swing Line Loan to refinance any outstanding Swing Line Loan. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow under this Section. Unless notified to the contrary by the Swing Line Lender, Borrowings under the Swing Line may be made in amounts which are integral multiples of $500,000 (“integral amount”) upon Requisite Notice made to the Swing Line Lender not later than 1:00 p.m. California time. Promptly after receipt of such a request for Borrowing, the Swing Line Lender shall obtain telephonic verification from Administrative Agent that, giving effect to such request, availability for Loans will exist under Section 2.1 (and such verification shall be promptly confirmed in writing by facsimile). Unless notified to the contrary by the Swing Line Lender, each repayment of a Swing Line Loan shall be in an amount which is an integral multiple of the integral amount. If Borrower instructs the Swing Line Lender to debit their demand deposit account at the Swing Line Lender in the amount of any payment with respect to a Swing Line Loan, or the Swing Line Lender otherwise receives repayment, such payment shall be deemed received on the next Business Day. The Swing Line Lender shall promptly notify Administrative Agent of the Swing Line Outstandings each time there is a change therein.

(b)                                 Swing Line Loans shall bear interest at a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin or, if Borrower so requests, a fixed rate of

33

interest quoted by Swing Line Lender and agreed to by Borrower, for an interest period quoted by Swing Line Lender and agreed to by Borrower, but for a period not longer than ten Business Days, payable on such dates, as may be specified by the Swing Line Lender and in any event on the Maturity Date. Interest on Swing Line Loans shall be payable upon demand of the Swing Line Lender, and the Swing Line Lender shall be responsible for invoicing Borrower for such interest. The interest payable on Swing Line Loans is solely for the account of the Swing Line Lender.

(c)                                  Each Swing Line Loan shall be payable on the earlier of demand made by the Swing Line Lender or the tenth Business Day after the funding of the Swing Line Loan.

(d)                                 Upon the making of a Swing Line Loan, each Lender shall be deemed to have purchased from the Swing Line Lender a participation therein in an amount equal to that Lender’s Pro Rata Share times the amount of the Swing Line Loan. Upon demand made by the Swing Line Lender, each Lender shall, according to its Pro Rata Share, promptly provide to the Swing Line Lender its purchase price therefor in an amount equal to its participation therein. The obligation of each Lender to so provide its purchase price to the Swing Line Lender shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by the occurrence of an Event of Default or any other occurrence or event.

(e)                                  In the event that any Swing Line Loan is outstanding for more than ten Business Days, then on the next Business Day (unless Borrower has made other arrangements acceptable to the Swing Line Lender to repay the Swing Line Loan), Borrower shall request a Committed Loan in a Minimum Amount necessary to repay the Swing Line Loan in full. In the event that Borrower fails to request a Committed Loan within the Requisite Time therefor, Administrative Agent may, but is not required to, without notice to or the consent of Borrower, cause Committed Loans to be made by Lenders in the Minimum Amount necessary to repay the Swing Line Loan in full (and the Administrative Agent may apply Cash Collateral available with respect to the applicable Swing Line Loan for such purpose) and, for this purpose, the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4 shall not apply. The proceeds of such Committed Loans shall be paid to the Swing Line Lender for application to the applicable Swing Line Loan.

(a)                                  Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, (i) the Issuing Lender agrees, in reliance upon the agreements of Lenders set forth in this Section 2.4, to (x) from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date until the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, to issue Letters of Credit for the account of Borrower or its Subsidiaries, and to amend or extend Letters of Credit previously issued by it, in accordance with this Section, and (2) to honor drawings under the Letters of Credit; and (ii) the Lenders severally agree to participate in Letters of Credit issued for the account of Borrower or its Subsidiaries and any drawings thereunder; provided that after giving effect to any Letter of Credit Extension with respect to any Letter of Credit (x) the Outstanding Amount of all Letter of Credit Usage and all Loans shall not exceed the Aggregate Commitments, (y) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Committed

(d)                                 The Issuing Lender shall not be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if:  (i) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain the Issuing Lender from issuing the Letter of Credit, or any Law applicable to the Issuing Lender or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over the Issuing Lender shall prohibit, or request that the Issuing Lender refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or the Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon the Issuing Lender with respect to the Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which the Issuing Lender is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon the Issuing Lender any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date and which the Issuing Lender in good faith deems material to it;  (ii)                                                 the issuance of the Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of the Issuing Lender applicable to letters of credit generally;  (iii) the Letter of Credit is to be denominated in a currency other than Dollars; (iv) any Lender is at that time a Defaulting Lender, unless the Issuing Lender has entered into arrangements, including the delivery of Cash Collateral, satisfactory to the Issuing Lender (in its sole discretion) with Borrower or such Lender to eliminate the Issuing Lender’s actual or potential Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 2.16(a)(iv)) with respect to the Defaulting Lender arising from either the Letter of Credit then proposed to be issued or that Letter of Credit and all other Letter of Credit Usage as to which the Issuing Lender has actual or potential Fronting Exposure, as it may elect in its sole discretion; or (v) the Letter of Credit contains any provisions for automatic reinstatement of the stated amount after any drawing thereunder.

(e)                                  The Issuing Lender shall be under no obligation to amend any Letter of Credit if (x) the Issuing Lender would have no obligation at such time to issue the Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof, or (y) the beneficiary of the Letter of Credit does not accept the proposed amendment to the Letter of Credit.

(f)                                    The Issuing Lender shall act on behalf of the Lenders with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it and the documents associated therewith, and the Issuing Lender shall have all of the benefits and immunities (i) provided to the Administrative Agent in Section 9 with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by the Issuing Lender in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and Issuer Documents pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Administrative Agent” as used in Section 9 included the Issuing Lender with respect to such acts or omissions, and (ii) as additionally provided herein with respect to the Issuing Lender.    Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender and Borrower agree that, in

36

paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lender shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by the Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document.  None of the Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any correspondent, participant or assignee of the Issuing Lender shall be liable to any Lender for (i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Lenders or the Requisite Lenders, as applicable; (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct; or (iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Letter of Credit or Issuer Document.  Borrower hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided, that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude Borrower’s pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement.

(g)                                 If Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Application, the Issuing Lender may, in its sole discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic extension provisions (each, an “Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”); provided that any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit the Issuing Lender to prevent any such extension at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the “Non-Extension Notice Date”) in each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued.  Unless otherwise directed by the Issuing Lender, Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to the Issuing Lender for any such extension.  Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the Issuing Lender to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than the Letter of Credit Expiration Date; provided, however, that the Issuing Lender shall not permit any such extension if (A) the Issuing Lender has determined that it would not be permitted at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its revised form (as extended) under the terms hereof, or (B) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is seven Business Days before the Non-Extension Notice Date (1) from the Administrative Agent that the Requisite Lenders have elected not to permit such extension or (2) from the Administrative Agent, any Lender or Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 4.2 is not then satisfied, and in each such case directing the Issuing Lender not to permit such extension.

(h)                                 Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing under such Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lender shall notify Borrower and the Administrative Agent thereof.  Not later than 11:00 a.m. on the date of any payment by the Issuing Lender under a Letter of Credit (each such date, an “Honor Date”), Borrower shall reimburse the Issuing Lender through the Administrative Agent in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing.  If Borrower fails to so reimburse the Issuing Lender by such time, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the Honor Date, the amount of the unreimbursed drawing (the “Unreimbursed Amount”), and the

37

amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof.  In such event, Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Committed Borrowing of Base Rate Loans to be disbursed on the Honor Date in an amount equal to the Unreimbursed Amount, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in Section 2.2 for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the Aggregate Commitments and the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 (other than the delivery of a Committed Loan Notice).  Any notice given by the Issuing Lender or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.4(h) may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.  Each Lender shall upon any notice pursuant to this Section 2.4(h) make funds available (and the Administrative Agent may apply Cash Collateral provided for this purpose) for the account of the Issuing Lender at the Administrative Agent’s Office in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the Unreimbursed Amount not later than 1:00 p.m. on the Business Day specified in such notice by the Administrative Agent, whereupon, subject to the provisions of Section 2.4(i), each Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Committed Loan to Borrower in such amount.  The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the Issuing Bank.   Until each Lender funds its Committed Loan or Letter of Credit Advance pursuant to this Section 2.4(h) to reimburse the Issuing Lender for any amount drawn under any Letter of Credit, interest in respect of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such amount shall be solely for the account of the Issuing Lender.

(i)                                     With respect to any Unreimbursed Amount that is not fully refinanced by a Committed Borrowing of Base Rate Loans because the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 cannot be satisfied or for any other reason, Borrower shall be deemed to have incurred from the Issuing Lender a Letter of Credit Borrowing in the amount of the Unreimbursed Amount that is not so refinanced, which Letter of Credit Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at the Default Rate.  In such event, each Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 2.4(h) shall be deemed payment in respect of its participation in such Letter of Credit Borrowing and shall constitute a Letter of Credit Advance from such Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 2.4.

(j)                                     Each Lender’s obligation to make Committed Loans or Letter of Credit Advances to reimburse the Issuing Lender for amounts drawn under Letters of Credit, as contemplated by this Section 2.4, shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against the Issuing Lender, Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or Event of Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Lender’s obligation to make Committed Loans pursuant to this Section 2.4 is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 (other than delivery by Borrower of a Committed Loan Notice).  No such making of a Letter of Credit Advance shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of

38

Borrower to reimburse the Issuing Lender for the amount of any payment made by the Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit, together with interest as provided herein.

(k)                                  If any Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.4 by the time specified in Section 2.4(h), then, without limiting the other provisions of this Agreement, the Issuing Lender shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the Issuing Lender at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Issuing Lender in accordance with banking industry practice on interbank compensation, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Issuing Lender in connection with the foregoing.  If such Lender pays such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Committed Loan included in the relevant Committed Borrowing or Letter of Credit Advance in respect of the relevant Letter of Credit Borrowing, as the case may be.  A certificate of the Issuing Lender submitted to any Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this Section shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(l)                                     The obligation of Borrower to pay to the Issuing Lender the amount of any payment made by the Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional, and irrevocable. Without limiting the foregoing, Borrower’s obligations shall not be affected by any of the following circumstances:

(i)                                     any lack of validity or enforceability of the Letter of Credit, this Agreement, or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto;

(ii)                                  any amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from the Letter of Credit, this Agreement, or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto, with the consent of Borrower;

(iii)                               the existence of any claim, set-off, defense, or other rights which Borrower may have at any time against the Issuing Lender, Administrative Agent or any Lender, any beneficiary of the Letter of Credit (or any persons or entities for whom any such beneficiary may be acting) or any other Person, whether in connection with the Letter of Credit, this Agreement, or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated transactions;

(iv)                              any demand, statement, or any other document presented under the Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid, or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect whatsoever so long as any such document appeared to comply with the terms of the Letter of Credit;

39

(v)                                 payment by the Issuing Lender in good faith under the Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or any accompanying document which does not strictly comply with the terms of the Letter of Credit;

(vi)                              the existence, character, quality, quantity, condition, packing, value or delivery of any Property purported to be represented by documents presented in connection with any Letter of Credit or for any difference between any such Property and the character, quality, quantity, condition, or value of such Property as described in such documents;

(vii)                           the time, place, manner, order or contents of shipments or deliveries of Property as described in documents presented in connection with any Letter of Credit or the existence, nature and extent of any insurance relative thereto;

(viii)                        the solvency or financial responsibility of any party issuing any documents in connection with a Letter of Credit;

(ix)                                any failure or delay in notice of shipments or arrival of any Property;

(x)                                   any error in the transmission of any message relating to a Letter of Credit not caused by the Issuing Lender, or any delay or interruption in any such message;

(xi)                                any error, neglect or default of any correspondent of the Issuing Lender in connection with a Letter of Credit;

(xii)                             any consequence arising from acts of God, wars, insurrections, civil unrest, disturbances, labor disputes, emergency conditions or other causes beyond the control of the Issuing Lender;

(xiii)                          so long as the Issuing Lender in good faith determines that the document appears to comply with the terms of the Letter of Credit, the form, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any contract or document referred to in any document submitted to the Issuing Lender in connection with a Letter of Credit; and

(xiv)                         where the Issuing Lender has acted in good faith and observed general banking usage, any other circumstances whatsoever.

(m)                               Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the Issuing Lender and Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued (including any such agreement applicable to an Existing Letter of Credit), (i) the rules of the ISP shall apply to each standby Letter of Credit, and (ii) the rules of the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits, as most recently published by the International Chamber of Commerce at the time of issuance shall apply to each commercial Letter of Credit.

40

(n)                                 Concurrently with the issuance of each Letter of Credit, Borrower shall pay a letter of credit issuance fee to the Issuing Lender, for the sole account of the Issuing Lender, in an amount set forth in the Fee Letter to which MLPFS is a party. Borrower shall also pay to Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Share, a Letter of Credit fee in an amount equal to the Applicable Margin times the average daily maximum amount available to be drawn on such outstanding Letter of Credit, computed and payable in arrears on the last day of each calendar quarter, commencing September 30, 2011, through the date upon which the outstanding Letter of Credit shall expire, with the final payment to be made on such expiration date; provided, however, any Letter of Credit fees otherwise payable for the account of a Defaulting Lender with respect to any Letter of Credit shall be payable, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, to the other Lenders in accordance with the upward adjustments in their respective Pro Rata Shares allocable to such Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 2.16(a)(iv). Borrower shall also pay to the Issuing Lender for its own account, from time to time on demand, the Issuing Lender’s standard processing fees, costs and charges with respect to Letters of Credit. The Letter of Credit issuance fee and the Letter of Credit fee are nonrefundable.

(o)                                 .As of the Effective Date, Bank of America has issued for the account of Borrower certain existing letters of credit listed on Schedule 2.4 hereto (collectively, the “Existing Letters of Credit”). On the Effective Date, all Existing Letters of Credit shall be deemed to have been issued pursuant hereto and each Lender shall be deemed to have purchased a participation in the Existing Letters of Credit in the same manner as if the Existing Letters of Credit had been a Letter of Credit issued hereunder.   With respect to the Existing Letters of Credit, from and after the Effective Date the letter of credit fee for the ratable account of Lenders will accrue, the undrawn amount thereof shall constitute Letter of Credit Usage and such Existing Letters of Credit shall be subject to and governed by the terms and conditions hereof.

(p)                                 Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder is in support of any obligations of, or is for the account of, a Subsidiary, Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the Issuing Lender hereunder for any and all drawings under such Letter of Credit.  Borrower hereby acknowledges that the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of Subsidiaries inures to the benefit of Borrower, and that Borrower’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such Subsidiaries.

2.5                                 Prepayments.

(a)                                  Upon Requisite Notice to Administrative Agent not later than the Requisite Time therefor, Borrower may at any time and from time to time voluntarily prepay Committed Loans in the Minimum Amount therefor. Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender thereof and of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such prepayment.

(b)                                 If for any reason the Outstanding Obligations exceed the Aggregate Commitments as in effect or as reduced or because of any limitation set forth in this Agreement or otherwise, Borrower shall immediately prepay Loans and/or deposit Cash

41

Collateral to be held by Administrative Agent in an interest-bearing cash collateral account as collateral for Letter of Credit Usage hereunder in an aggregate amount equal to such excess.

(c)                                  Any prepayment of a Loan other than a Base Rate Loan shall be accompanied by all accrued interest thereon, together with the costs set forth in Section 3.6.

2.6                                 Voluntary Reduction or Termination of Commitments.  Upon Requisite Notice to Administrative Agent not later than the Requisite Time therefor, Borrower shall have the right, at any time and from time to time, without penalty or charge, to permanently and irrevocably reduce the Commitments in a Minimum Amount therefor, or terminate the then unused portion of the Commitments, provided, that Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Commitments if, after giving effect thereto and any concurrent prepayment hereunder, the Outstanding Obligations would exceed the Aggregate Commitments; provided further, that any such reduction or termination shall be accompanied by payment of all accrued and unpaid commitment fees with respect to the portion of the Commitments being reduced or terminated. Administrative Agent shall promptly notify Lenders of any request for reduction or termination of the Commitments under this Section. Each Lender’s Commitment shall be reduced by an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share times the amount of such reduction.

2.7                                 Principal and Interest.

(a)                                  If not sooner paid, Borrower shall pay the outstanding principal amount of each Committed Loan on the Maturity Date.

(b)                                 Subject to subsection (c) below, Borrower agrees to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Loans (before and after default, before and after maturity, before and after judgment, and before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law) from the date borrowed until paid in full (whether by acceleration or otherwise) (i) in the case of Committed Loans that are Base Rate Loans, on each Interest Payment Date therefor at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin, (ii) in the case of Eurodollar Rate Loans, on each Interest Payment Date therefore at the Eurodollar Rate for the applicable Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin and (iii) in the case of Swing Line Loans, at such times and at such rates as set forth in Section 2.3.

(c)                                  If any amount payable by Borrower under any Loan Document is not paid when due (without regard to any applicable grace periods), it shall thereafter bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws. Upon the request of the Requisite Lenders, while any Event of Default exists, Borrower shall pay interest on the principal amount of all outstanding Obligations hereunder at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws. Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts including, without limitation, interest on past due

42

interest shall be compounded monthly, on the last day of each calendar month, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws and payable upon demand.

2.8                                 Fees.

(a)                                  Commitment Fee.  Borrower agrees to pay to Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender pro rata according to its Pro Rata Share, a commitment fee equal to the Applicable Margin times the actual daily amount by which the Aggregate Commitments exceed the Outstanding Obligations (excluding Swing Line Loans), subject to adjustment as provided in Section 2.16. The commitment fee shall accrue at all times from the Effective Date until the Maturity Date and shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each Quarterly Payment Date. The commitment fee shall be calculated quarterly in arrears, and if there is any change in the Applicable Margin during any quarter, the actual daily amount shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Margin separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Margin was in effect. The commitment fee shall accrue at all times, including at any time during which one or more conditions in Section 4 are not met.

(b)                                 Other Fees.  Borrower shall pay to the Arrangers, Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender for their own respective accounts (or, to the extent specified in the Fee Letter to which MLPFS is a party, for the account of Lenders) fees in the amounts and at the times specified in the Fee Letters. Such fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever.

2.9                                 Computation of Interest and Fees; Retroactive Adjustments of Applicable Margin.

(a)                                  Computation of Interest and Fees.  Computation of interest on Base Rate Loans shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and the actual number of days elapsed; computation of interest on all other types of Loans and all fees under this Agreement shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days and the actual number of days elapsed, which results in a higher yield to Lenders than a method based on a year of 365 or 366 days. Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made; interest shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid. Any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall bear interest for one day. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, interest in excess of the maximum amount permitted by applicable Laws shall not accrue or be payable hereunder, and any amount paid as interest hereunder which would otherwise be in excess of such maximum permitted amount shall instead be treated as a payment of principal.

(b)                                 Retroactive Adjustments of Applicable Margin.  If, as a result of any restatement of or other adjustment to the financial statements of Borrower or for any other reason, Borrower or the Lenders determine that (i) the Total Leverage Ratio as calculated by Borrower as of any applicable date on or after the Effective Date was inaccurate and (ii) a proper calculation of the Total Leverage Ratio would have resulted in higher pricing for such period, Borrower shall immediately and retroactively be

43

obligated to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, promptly on demand by the Administrative Agent (or, after the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, automatically and without further action by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Lender), an amount equal to the excess of the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for such period over the amount of interest and fees actually paid for such period.  This paragraph shall not limit the rights of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Lenders, as the case may be, under Section 2.4(h), 2.4(n) or 2.7(c) or under Section 8.  Borrower’s obligations under this paragraph shall survive the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and the repayment of all other Obligations hereunder.

2.10                           Manner and Treatment of Payments among Lenders, Borrower and Administrative Agent.

(a)                                  All payments to be made by Borrower shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by Borrower or any Lender hereunder shall be made to Administrative Agent at Administrative Agent’s Office not later than the Requisite Time for such type of payment in Dollars in immediately available funds. The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender any such payment made by Borrower for the account of Lenders such Lender’s Pro Rata Share (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s Lending Office. All payments received after such Requisite Time shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day. All payments shall be made in immediately available funds in lawful money of the United States of America.

(b)                                 Upon satisfaction of any applicable terms and conditions set forth herein, Administrative Agent shall promptly make any amounts received in accordance with the prior subsection available in like funds received as follows: (i) if payable to Borrower, by crediting the Designated Deposit Account, and (ii) if payable to any Lender, by wire transfer to such Lender at the address specified in Schedule 10.2 or the Administrative Questionnaire. Administrative Agent’s determination, or any Lender’s determination not contradictory thereto, of any amount payable hereunder shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

(c)                                  Subject to the definition of “Interest Period,” if any payment to be made by Borrower or any other Borrower Party shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall instead be considered due on the next succeeding Business Day and the extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest and fees.

(d)                                 Unless Borrower or any Lender have notified Administrative Agent prior to the time any payment to be made by them is due, that they do not intend to remit such payment, Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, assume that Borrower or Lender, as the case may be, have timely remitted such payment and may, in its discretion and in reliance thereon, make available such payment to the Person entitled thereto. If such payment was not in fact remitted to Administrative Agent, then:

44

(i)                                     if Borrower failed to make such payment, each Lender shall forthwith on demand repay to Administrative Agent the amount of such assumed payment made available to such Lender, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such amount was made available by Administrative Agent to such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to Administrative Agent at the Federal Funds Rate; and

(ii)                                  if any Lender failed to make such payment, Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount on demand from such Lender. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, Administrative Agent promptly shall notify Borrower, and Borrower shall pay such corresponding amount to Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent also shall be entitled to recover from such Lender interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding amount was made available by Administrative Agent or Borrower to the date such corresponding amount is recovered by Administrative Agent, (A) from such Lender at a rate per annum equal to the daily Federal Funds Rate, and (B) from Borrower, at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable to such Borrowing. Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitments or to prejudice any rights which Administrative Agent or Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

2.11                           Funding Sources.  Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner.

2.12                           Automatic Deduction.  On each date when the payment of any principal, interest or fees are due hereunder or under any Note, Borrower agrees to maintain on deposit in an ordinary checking account maintained by Borrower with Administrative Agent (as such account shall be designated by Borrower in a written notice to Administrative Agent from time to time, the “Borrower Account”) an amount sufficient to pay such principal, interest or fees in full. Borrower hereby authorizes Administrative Agent (i) to deduct automatically all interest or fees when due hereunder or under the Notes from Borrower Account, and (ii) if and to the extent any payment under this Agreement or any other Loan Document is not made when due, to deduct automatically any such amount from any or all of the accounts of Borrower maintained with Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent agrees to provide timely notice to Borrower of any automatic deduction made pursuant to this Section 2.12.

2.13                                                                           Obligations of Lenders Several.  The obligations of Lenders hereunder to make Committed Loans, to fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans and to make payments pursuant to Section 10.4(c) are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Committed Loan, to fund any such participation or to make any payment under Section 10.4(c) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender

45

shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Committed Loan, to purchase its participation or to make its payment under Section 10.4(c).

2.14                           Sharing of Payments by Lenders.  If any Lender, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtains payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of the Committed Loans made by it, or the participations in Letter of Credit Usage or in Swing Line Loans held by it resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of Committed Loans or participations and accrued interest thereon greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Committed Loans and subparticipations in Letter of Credit Usage and Swing Line Loans of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Committed Loans and other amounts owing to them; provided that:

(i)                                     if any such participations or subparticipations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations or subparticipations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and

(ii)                                  the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment by Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender), (y) the application of Cash Collateral provided for in Section 2.17, or (z) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Committed Loans or subparticipations in Letter of Credit Usage or Swing Line Loans to any assignee or participant other than to Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (as to which the provisions of this Section apply).

2.15                           Increase in Commitments.

(a)                                  Request for Increase.  Provided there exists no Default or Event of Default, upon notice to Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders), Borrower may from time to time request an increase in the Aggregate Commitments by an amount for all such requests) not exceeding $500,000,000; provided that (i) any such request for an increase shall be in a minimum amount of $50,000,000, and (ii) Borrower may make a maximum of ten such requests. At the time of sending such notice, Borrower (in consultation with Administrative Agent) shall specify the time period within which each Lender is requested to respond (which shall in no event be less than ten Business Days from the date of delivery of such notice to the Lenders).

(b)                                 Lender Elections to Increase.  Each Lender shall notify Administrative Agent within such time period whether or not it agrees to increase its Commitment and, if so, whether by an amount equal to, greater than, or less than its Pro Rata Share of such

46

requested increase. Any Lender not responding within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to increase its Commitment.

(c)                                  Notification by Administrative Agent; Additional Lenders.  Administrative Agent shall notify Borrower and each Lender of the Lenders’ responses to each request made hereunder. To achieve the full amount of a requested increase and subject to the approval of Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and the Swing Line Lender (which approvals shall not be unreasonably withheld), Borrower may also invite additional Eligible Assignees to become Lenders pursuant to a joinder agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Administrative Agent and its counsel.

(d)                                 Effective Date and Allocations.  If the Aggregate Commitments are increased in accordance with this Section, Administrative Agent and Borrower shall determine the effective date (the “Increase Effective Date”) and the final allocation of such increase. Administrative Agent shall promptly notify Borrower and the Lenders of the final allocation of such increase and the Increase Effective Date.

(e)                                  Conditions to Effectiveness of Increase.  As a condition precedent to such increase, Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent a certificate of Borrower and each Guarantor dated as of the Increase Effective Date (with sufficient copies for each Lender) signed by a Responsible Officer of such Person (i) certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by such Person approving or consenting to such increase and (ii) in the case of Borrower, certifying that, before and after giving effect to such increase, (A) the representations and warranties contained in Section 5 and the other Loan Documents are true and correct on and as of the Increase Effective Date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they were true and correct as of such earlier date, and except that for purposes of this Section 2.15, the representations and warranties contained in clauses (a) and (b) of Section 5.12 shall be deemed to refer to the most recent statements furnished pursuant to clauses (a) and (b), respectively, of Section 6.2, and (B) no Default or Event of Default exists. Borrower shall prepay any Committed Loans outstanding on the Increase Effective Date (and pay any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.6) to the extent necessary to keep the outstanding Committed Loans ratable with any revised Pro Rata Shares arising from any nonratable increase in the Commitments under this Section.

(f)                                    Conflicting Provisions.  This Section shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.14 or 10.1 to the contrary.

2.16                           Defaulting Lenders.

(a)                                  Adjustments.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Law:

(i)                                     Waivers and Amendments.  That Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in Section 10.1.

47

(ii)                                  Reallocation of Payments.  Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of that Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 3 or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by that Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 10.8), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Lender or Swing Line Lender hereunder; third, if so determined by the Administrative Agent or requested by the Issuing Lender or Swing Line Lender, to be held as Cash Collateral for future funding obligations of that Defaulting Lender of any participation in any Swing Line Loan or Letter of Credit; fourth, as Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and Borrower, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of that Defaulting Lender to fund Loans under this Agreement; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the Issuing Lender or the Swing Line Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the Issuing Lender or the Swing Line Lender against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by Borrower against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to that Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or in respect of any Letter of Credit Usage in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and (y) such Loans were made or such Letter of Credit Usage incurred at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and amounts in respect of Letter of Credit Usage owed to, all non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or amounts in respect of Letter of Credit Usage owed to, that Defaulting Lender.  Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.16(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by that Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii)                               Certain Fees.  That Defaulting Lender (x) shall not be entitled to receive any commitment fee pursuant to Section 2.8(a) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to

48

that Defaulting Lender and (y) shall be limited in its right to receive Letter of Credit Fees as provided in Section 2.4(n).

(iv)                              Reallocation of Pro Rata Shares to Reduce Fronting Exposure.  During any period in which there is a Defaulting Lender, for purposes of computing the amount of the obligation of each non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Swing Line Loans or Letters of Credit pursuant to Sections 2.3 and 2.4, the “Pro Rata Share” of each non-Defaulting Lender shall be computed without giving effect to the Commitment of that Defaulting Lender; provided, that, (i) each such reallocation shall be given effect only if, at the date the applicable Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, no Default or Event of Default exists; and (ii) the aggregate obligation of each non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Swing Line Loans and Letters of Credit shall not exceed the positive difference, if any, of (1) the Commitment of that non-Defaulting Lender minus (2) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Committed Loans of that Lender.

(b)                                 Defaulting Lender Cure.  If Borrower, the Administrative Agent, Swing Line Lender and the Issuing Lender agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Committed Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares (without giving effect to Section 2.16(a)(iv)), whereupon that Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from a Defaulting Lender to a Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

2.17                           Cash Collateral.

(a)                                  Certain Credit Support Events.  (i) Upon the request of Issuing Lender, if Issuing Lender has honored any full or partial drawing request under any Letter of Credit and such drawing has resulted in Letter of Credit Usage in respect of such Letter of Credit, Borrower shall, in each case, immediately Cash Collateralize the then Outstanding Amount of all Letter of Credit Usage; or (ii) if, as of the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, any Letter of Credit Usage for any reason remains outstanding, Borrower shall, in each case, immediately Cash Collateralize all Letter of Credit Usage.  At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, immediately upon the request of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or the Swing Line Lender, Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to cover all Fronting

49

Exposure (after giving effect to Section 2.16(a)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).

(b)                                 Grant of Security Interest.  All Cash Collateral (other than credit support not constituting funds subject to deposit) shall be maintained in blocked, non-interest bearing deposit accounts at the Issuing Lender.  Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Lender, such Lender, hereby grants to (and subjects to the control of) the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and the Lenders (including the Swing Line Lender), and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such cash, deposit accounts and all balances therein, and all other property so provided as collateral pursuant hereto, and in all proceeds of the foregoing, all as security for the obligations to which such Cash Collateral may be applied pursuant to Section 2.17(c).  If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the applicable Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 2.16(a)(iv)) and other obligations secured thereby (as identified at the time such Cash Collateral is provided), Borrower or the relevant Defaulting Lender will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency.

(c)                                  Application.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under any of this Section 2.17 or Sections 2.3, 2.4, or 8.2 or any other provision of this Agreement in respect of Letters of Credit or Swing Line Loans shall be held and applied to the satisfaction of the specific Letter of Credit Usage, Swing Line Loans, obligations to fund participations therein (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) and other obligations (as identified at the time of the provision thereof) for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may be provided for herein.(d)                Release.  Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce Fronting Exposure or other obligations shall be released promptly following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure or other obligations giving rise thereto (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender (or, as appropriate, its assignee following compliance with Sections 10.6 and 10.13) or (ii) the Administrative Agent’s good faith determination that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided, however, (x) that Cash Collateral furnished by or on behalf of a Borrower Party shall not be released during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default (and following application as provided in this Section 2.17 may be otherwise applied in accordance with Section 8.3), and (y) the Person providing Cash Collateral and the Issuing Lender or Swing Line Lender, as applicable, may agree that Cash Collateral shall not be released but instead held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations.

50

SECTION 3
TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY

3.1                                 Taxes.

(a)                                  Payments Free of Taxes.  Each payment of any amount payable by Borrower or any other Borrower Party under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of, and without reduction by reason of, any Applicable Taxes. To the extent that Borrower is obligated by applicable Laws to make any deduction or withholding on account of Applicable Taxes or Lender Taxes from any amount payable to any Lender or the Issuing Lender under this Agreement, Borrower shall promptly notify Administrative Agent of such fact and (a) make such deduction or withholding and pay the same to the relevant Governmental Authority and (b) in case of an Applicable Tax, pay such additional amount directly to that Lender or the Issuing Lender as is necessary to result in that Lender or the Issuing Lender receiving a net after-Applicable Tax amount equal to the amount to which that Lender or the Issuing Lender would have been entitled under this Agreement absent such deduction or withholding. Within 30 days after the date of any payment by Borrower of any amounts pursuant to this section, Borrower shall furnish to Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof, or other evidence of payment satisfactory to Administrative Agent.

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

3.2                                 Increased Costs.  If any Lender or the Issuing Lender reasonably determines that any Law or guidelines (whether or not having the force of law), or compliance therewith, have the effect of increasing its cost of agreeing to make or making, to issue or participating in, funding or maintaining any Loans or Letters of Credit, then Borrower shall, upon demand by such Lender or the Issuing Lender (with a copy of such demand to Administrative Agent), pay to Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender or the Issuing Lender additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender or the Issuing Lender for such increased cost.

3.3                                 Capital Adequacy.  If any Lender or the Issuing Lender determines that any Law regarding capital adequacy, or compliance by such Lender or the Issuing Lender (or its Lending Office) or any corporation controlling Lender or the Issuing Lender, with any Law, request, guideline or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not

51

having the force of law) of any Governmental Authority not imposed as a result of the Issuing Lender’s, such Lender’s or such corporation’s failure to comply with any other Laws, affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Lender, the Issuing Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender or the Issuing Lender and (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy and such Lender’s and the Issuing Lender’s desired return on capital) determines in good faith that the amount of such capital is increased, or the rate of return on capital is reduced, as a consequence of its obligations under this Agreement, then upon demand of such Lender or the Issuing Lender (with a copy to Administrative Agent), Borrower shall pay to such Lender or the Issuing Lender, from time to time as specified in good faith by such Lender or the Issuing Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender or the Issuing Lender in light of such circumstances, to the extent reasonably allocable to such obligations under this Agreement.

3.4                                 Illegality.  If any Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to the Eurodollar Rate, or materially restricts the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars in the applicable offshore Dollar market, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to Borrower through Administrative Agent, any obligation of such Lender to make such Loans shall be suspended until such Lender notifies Administrative Agent and Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to Administrative Agent), prepay or Convert all Eurodollar Rate Loans of such Lender, either on the last day of the Interest Period thereof, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loans. If such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender determining or charging interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate, the Administrative Agent shall during the period of such suspension compute the Base Rate applicable to such Lender without reference to the Eurodollar Rate component thereof until the Administrative Agent is advised in writing by such Lender that it is no longer illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate.  Each Lender agrees to designate a different Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for such notice and will not, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender.

3.5                                 Inability to Determine Rates.  If, in connection with any Request for Extension of Credit, Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders determines that (a) Dollar deposits are not being offered to Lenders in the applicable offshore Dollar market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of the requested Loan, (b) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the underlying interest rate for the Loans requested therein, or (c) such underlying interest rates do not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to Lenders of funding such Loan, Administrative Agent will promptly so notify Borrower and each Lender. Thereafter, the obligation of Lenders to (x) make or maintain

52

Eurodollar Rate Loans based upon such affected interest rate shall be suspended and (y) in the event of a determination described in this sentence with respect to the Eurodollar Rate component of the Base Rate, the utilization of the Eurodollar Rate component in determining the Base Rate shall be suspended, in each case until the Administrative Agent (including at the direction of the Required Lenders in the case of such a determination by the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, Borrower may revoke any pending Request for Extension of Credit for such type of Loan or, failing that, be deemed to have converted such Request for Extension of Credit into a request for Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein.

3.6                                 Breakfunding Costs.  Upon Continuation, Conversion, payment or prepayment of any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on a day other than the last day in the applicable Interest Period (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise and including any such action required under this Section 3), or upon the failure of Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of a Lender to make a Loan) to borrow, Continue or Convert any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on the date or in the amount specified in any Request for Extension of Credit, then Borrower shall, upon demand made by any Lender (with a copy to Administrative Agent), reimburse each Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender) and hold each such Lender harmless from any loss or expense which any such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence thereof, including any such loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained.

3.7                                 Matters Applicable to all Requests for Compensation.

(a)                                  Administrative Agent and any Lender shall provide reasonable detail to Borrower regarding the manner in which the amount of any payment to Administrative Agent or that Lender under this Section 3 has been determined, concurrently with demand for such payment. Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s determination of any amount payable under this Section 3 shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

(b)                                 For purposes of calculating amounts payable under this Section 3 any Loan shall be deemed to have been funded at the applicable interest rate set forth in the definition thereof whether or not such Loan was, in fact, so funded.

(c)                                  All of Borrower’s obligations under this Section 3 shall survive termination of the Aggregate Commitments and payment in full of all Outstanding Obligations hereunder.

SECTION 5
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

Borrower represents and warrants to Administrative Agent and Lenders that:

5.1                                 Existence and Qualification; Power; Compliance With Laws.  Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries is a corporation duly formed, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation. Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries is duly qualified or registered to transact business and is in good standing in each other jurisdiction in which the conduct of its business or the ownership or leasing of its Properties makes such qualification or registration necessary, except where the failure so to qualify or register and to be in good standing would not constitute a Material Adverse Effect. Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries has all requisite corporate power and authority to conduct its business, to own and lease its Properties and to execute and deliver each Loan Document to which it is a party and to perform its Obligations hereunder and thereunder. All outstanding shares of capital stock of Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, and no holder thereof has any enforceable right of rescission under any applicable state or federal securities Laws. Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries is in compliance with all Laws and other legal requirements applicable to its business, has obtained all authorizations, consents, approvals, orders, licenses and permits from, and has accomplished all filings, registrations and qualifications with, or obtained exemptions from any of the foregoing from, any Governmental Authority that are necessary for the transaction of its business, except where the failure so to comply, file, register, qualify or obtain exemptions does not constitute a Material Adverse Effect.

5.2                                 Authority; Compliance With Other Agreements and Instruments and Government Regulations.  The execution, delivery and performance by Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries of the Loan Documents to which it is a party have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action, and do not and will not:

(a)                                  Require any consent or approval not heretofore obtained of any partner, director, stockholder, security holder or creditor of such party;

(b)                                 Violate or conflict with any provision of such party’s charter, articles of incorporation or bylaws, as applicable;

(c)                                  Result in or require the creation or imposition of any Lien upon or with respect to any Property now owned or leased or hereafter acquired by such party;

(d)                                 Violate any Laws applicable to such party; or

(e)                                  Result in a breach of or constitute a default under, or cause or permit the acceleration of any obligation owed under, any indenture or loan or credit agreement or any other Contractual Obligation to which such party is a party or by which such party or any of its Property is bound or affected;

56

5.3                                 No Governmental Approvals or Other Consents Required.  No authorization, consent, approval, order, license or permit from, or filing, registration or qualification with, any Governmental Authority or any other Person is or will be necessary or required to authorize or permit under applicable Laws the execution, delivery and performance by, or enforcement against, Borrower and its Subsidiaries of the Loan Documents to which it is a party.

5.4                                 Binding Obligations.  Each of the Loan Documents to which Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof is a party will, when executed and delivered by such party, constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation of such party, enforceable against such party in accordance with its terms, except as enforcement may be limited by Debtor Relief Laws or equitable principles relating to the granting of specific performance and other equitable remedies as a matter of judicial discretion.

5.5                                 Litigation.  Except for (a) any matter fully covered as to subject matter and amount (subject to applicable deductibles and retentions) by insurance for which the insurance carrier has not asserted lack of subject matter coverage or reserved its right to do so, (b) any matter, or series of related matters, involving a claim against Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof of less than $20,000,000, (c) matters of an administrative nature not involving a claim or charge against Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries and (d) matters set forth in Schedule 5.5, there are no actions, suits, proceedings or investigations pending as to which Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries have been served or have received notice or, to the best knowledge of Borrower, threatened against or affecting Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any Property of any of them before any Governmental Authority, which if adversely determined would have a Material Adverse Effect.

5.6                                 No Default.  No event has occurred and is continuing that is a Default or Event of Default.

5.7                                 ERISA Compliance.

(a)                                  Each Pension Plan is in compliance in all material respects with the applicable provisions of ERISA, the Code and other federal or state law. Each Pension Plan which is intended to qualify under Section 401(a) of the Code has received a favorable determination letter from the United States Internal Revenue Service or an application for such a letter is currently being processed by the United States Internal Revenue Service with respect thereto and, to the best knowledge of Borrower, nothing has occurred which would prevent, or cause the loss of, such qualification.

(b)                                 Borrower and each ERISA Affiliate have met all applicable requirements under the Pension Funding Rules in respect of each Pension Plan and Multiemployer Plan, and no application for a funding waiver or an extension of any amortization period under the Pension Funding Rules has been made with respect to any Pension Plan or Multiemployer Plan.

57

(c)                                  There are no pending or, to the best knowledge of Borrower, threatened claims, actions or lawsuits, or action by any Governmental Authority, with respect to any Pension Plan which has resulted or could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. There has been no prohibited transaction or violation of the fiduciary responsibility rules with respect to any Pension Plan which has resulted or could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

(d)                                 (i) No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur; (ii) no Pension Plan has any Unfunded Pension Liability, other than Unfunded Pension Liability which, when aggregated with all Unfunded Pension Liability of all other Pension Plans, does not exceed $35,000,000 in the aggregate at any time; (iii) neither Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate has incurred, or reasonably expects to incur, any liability under Title IV of ERISA with respect to any Pension Plan (other than premiums due and not delinquent under Section 4007 of ERISA); (iv) neither Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate has incurred, or reasonably expects to incur, any liability (and no event has occurred which, with the giving of notice under Section 4219 of ERISA, would result in such liability) under Section 4201 or 4243 of ERISA with respect to a Multiemployer Plan; and (v) neither Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate has engaged in a transaction that could be subject to Sections 4069 or 4212(c) of ERISA.

5.8                                 Use of Proceeds; Margin Regulations.  No part of the proceeds of any Loan hereunder will be used to purchase or carry, or to extend credit to others for the purpose of purchasing or carrying, any Margin Stock in violation of Regulations T, U and X.

72

8.2                                 Remedies Upon Event of Default.  If any Event of Default occurs, Administrative Agent shall, at the request of, or may, with the consent of, the Requisite Lenders,

(b)                                 declare the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Loans, all interest accrued and unpaid thereon, and all other amounts owing or payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document to be immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by Borrower;

(c)                                  require that Borrower Cash Collateralize the Letter of Credit Usage (in an amount equal to the then Outstanding Amount thereof); and

(d)                                 exercise on behalf of itself and Lenders all rights and remedies available to it and Lenders under the Loan Documents or applicable law;

provided, however, that upon the occurrence of any event specified in subsection (i) of Section 8.1, the obligation of each Lender to make Loans and any obligation of the Issuing Lender to make Letter of Credit Extensions shall automatically terminate, the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Loans and all interest and other amounts as aforesaid shall automatically become due and payable, and the obligation of Borrower to Cash Collateralize the Letter of Credit Usage as aforesaid shall automatically become effective, in each case without further act of Administrative Agent or any Lender.

8.3                                 Application of Funds.  After the exercise of remedies provided for in Section 8.2 (or after the Loans have automatically become immediately due and payable and the Letter of Credit Usage has automatically been required to be Cash Collateralized as set forth in the proviso to Section 8.2), any amounts received on account of the Obligations shall, subject to the provisions of Sections 2.16 and 2.17, be applied by the Administrative Agent in the following order:

First, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts (including fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to Administrative Agent and amounts payable under Section 3) payable to Administrative Agent in its capacity as such;

Second, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities and other amounts (other than principal, interest and Letter of Credit fees calculated based on the Applicable Margin and payable to or for the account of the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.4(n)) payable to the Lenders and the Issuing Lender (including fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to the respective Lenders and the Issuing Lender and amounts payable under Section 3), ratably among them in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Second payable to them;

73

Fourth, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting unpaid principal of the Loans, the aggregate amount of all drawings under Letters of Credit honored by the Issuing Lender and not theretofor reimbursed or converted into Committed Loans and Obligations then owing under Guarantied Hedge Agreements and Guarantied Cash Management Agreements, ratably among the Lenders, the Hedge Banks, the Cash Management Banks and the Issuing Lender in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Fourth held by them;

Fifth, to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender, to Cash Collateralize that portion of Letter of Credit Usage comprised of the aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit; and

Last, the balance, if any, after all of the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full, to Borrower or as otherwise required by Law.

Subject to Sections 2.17 and 2.5(b), amounts used to Cash Collateralize the aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit pursuant to clause Fifth above shall be applied to satisfy drawings under such Letters of Credit as they occur. If any amount remains on deposit as Cash Collateral after all Letters of Credit have either been fully drawn or expired, such remaining amount shall be applied to the other Obligations, if any, in the order set forth above.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Obligations arising under Guarantied Cash Management Agreements and Guarantied Hedge Agreements shall be excluded from the application described above if the Administrative Agent has not received written notice thereof, together with such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Cash Management Bank or Hedge Bank, as the case may be.  Each Cash Management Bank or Hedge Bank not a party to this Agreement that has given the notice contemplated by the preceding sentence shall, by such notice, be deemed to have acknowledged and accepted the appointment of the Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms of Section 9 for itself and its Affiliates as if a “Lender” party hereto.

SECTION 9
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

9.1                                 Appointment and Authority.

(a)                                  Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Lender (including in its capacities as a potential Hedge Bank and a potential Cash Management Bank) hereby irrevocably

74

appoints Bank of America to act on its behalf as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Section 9 are solely for the benefit of Administrative Agent, Lenders and the Issuing Lender, and neither Borrower nor any other Borrower Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions.

(b)                                 The Issuing Lender shall act on behalf of Lenders with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it and the documents associated therewith until such time and except for so long as Administrative Agent may agree at the request of the Requisite Lenders to act for such Issuing Lender with respect thereto; provided, however, that the Issuing Lender shall have all of the benefits and immunities (i) provided to Administrative Agent in this Section 9 with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by the Issuing Lender in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and the application and agreements for letters of credit pertaining to the Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Administrative Agent”, as used in this Section 9, included the Issuing Lender with respect to such acts or omissions, and (ii) as additionally provided in this Agreement with respect to the Issuing Lender.

9.2                                 Rights as a Lender.  The Person serving as Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to Lenders.

9.3                                 Exculpatory Provisions.  Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Administrative Agent:

(a)                                  shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;

(b)                                 shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Requisite Lenders (or such other number or percentage of Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents), provided that Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law; and

75

(c)                                  shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Requisite Lenders (or such other number or percentage of Lenders as shall be necessary, or as Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 10.1 and 8.2) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given to Administrative Agent by Borrower, a Lender or the Issuing Lender.

Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Section 4 or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to Administrative Agent.

9.4                                 Reliance by Administrative Agent.  Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or the Issuing Lender, Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or the Issuing Lender unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or the Issuing Lender prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit. Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

9.5                                 Delegation of Duties.  Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by Administrative Agent.

76

Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Section 9 shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.

9.6                                 Resignation of Administrative Agent.  Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to Lenders, the Issuing Lender and Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Requisite Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with Borrower, to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Requisite Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may on behalf of Lenders and the Issuing Lender, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that if Administrative Agent shall notify Borrower and Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (1) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (2) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and the Issuing Lender directly, until such time as the Requisite Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this Section. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Section 9 and Section 10.4 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.

Any resignation by Bank of America as Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section shall also constitute its resignation as Issuing Lender and Swing Line Lender. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Issuing Lender and Swing Line Lender, (b) the retiring Issuing Lender and Swing Line Lender shall be discharged from all of their respective duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, and (c) the successor Issuing Lender shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements

satisfactory to the retiring Issuing Lender to effectively assume the obligations of the retiring Issuing Lender with respect to such Letters of Credit.

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

9.8                                 No Other Duties, Etc.  Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the Arrangers or other agents listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as Administrative Agent, a Lender or the Issuing Lender hereunder.

9.9                                 Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim.  In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Borrower Party, Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or Letter of Credit Usage shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise

(a)                                  to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, Letter of Credit Usage and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid under the Loan Documents and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of Lenders, the Issuing Lender and Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Lenders, the Issuing Lender and Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due Lenders, the Issuing Lender and Administrative Agent under Sections 2.4(n), 2.8 and 10.4) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

(b)                                 to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender and the Issuing Lender to make such payments to Administrative Agent and, in the event that Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to Lenders

78

and the Issuing Lender, to pay to Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due Administrative Agent under Sections 2.8 and 10.4.

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender or the Issuing Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.

9.10                           Master Subsidiary Guaranty Matters.  Each of the Lenders (including in its capacities as a potential Hedge Bank and a potential Cash Management Bank) and the Issuing Lender irrevocably authorize Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Master Subsidiary Guaranty if such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary as a result of a transaction permitted hereunder. Upon request by Administrative Agent at any time, the Requisite Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Master Subsidiary Guaranty pursuant to this Section 9.10.

9.11                           Guarantied Cash Management Agreements and Guarantied Hedge Agreements.  Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, no Cash Management Bank or Hedge Bank that obtains the benefit of the provisions of Section 8.3 or  the Master Subsidiary Guaranty by virtue of the provisions hereof or of the Master Subsidiary Guaranty shall have any right to notice of any action or to consent to, direct or object to any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document (or to notice of or to consent to any amendment, waiver or modification of the provisions hereof or of the Master Subsidiary Guaranty) other than in its capacity as a Lender and, in such case, only to the extent expressly provided in the Loan Documents.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 9 to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to verify the payment of, or that other satisfactory arrangements have been made with respect to, Obligations arising under Guarantied Cash Management Agreements and Guarantied Hedge Agreements unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice of such Obligations, together with such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Cash Management Bank or Hedge Bank, as the case may be.

shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder, except that (x) the Commitment of any Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender more adversely than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender.

10.2                           Notices; Effectiveness; Electronic Communication.

(a)                                  Notices Generally.  Except in the case of notices and other communications expressly permitted to be given by telephone (and except as provided in subsection (b) below), all notices and other communications provided for herein shall be in writing and shall be delivered by hand or overnight courier service, mailed by certified or registered mail or sent by telecopier as follows, and all notices and other communications expressly permitted hereunder to be given by telephone shall be made to the applicable telephone number, as follows:

Notices sent by hand or overnight courier service, or mailed by certified or registered mail, shall be deemed to have been given when received; notices sent by telecopier shall be deemed to have been given when sent (except that, if not given during normal business hours for the recipient, shall be deemed to have been given at the opening of business on the next business day for the recipient). Notices delivered through electronic communications to the extent provided in subsection (b) below, shall be effective as provided in such subsection (b).

(b)                                 Electronic Communications.  Notices and other communications to Lenders and the Issuing Lender hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communication (including e-mail and Internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by Administrative Agent, provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender or the Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 2 if such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as applicable, has notified Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under such Section by electronic communication. Administrative Agent or Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it, provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications. Unless Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the

81

sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgement), provided that if such notice or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next business day for the recipient, and (ii) notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing clause (i) of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the web site address therefor.

(c)                                  The Platform.  THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” THE AGENT PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS IN OR OMISSIONS FROM THE BORROWER MATERIALS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY ANY AGENT PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE PLATFORM. In no event shall Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties (collectively, the “Agent Parties”) have any liability to Borrower, any Lender, the Issuing Lender or any other Person for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses of any kind (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of Borrower’s or the Administrative Agent’s transmission of Borrower Materials through the Internet, except to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Agent Party; provided, however, that in no event shall any Agent Party have any liability to Borrower, any Lender, the Issuing Lender or any other Person for indirect, special, incidental, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages).

(d)                                 Change of Address, Etc.  Each of Borrower, Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and the Swing Line Lender may change its address, telecopier or telephone number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto. Each other Lender may change its address, telecopier or telephone number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to Borrower, Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and the Swing Line Lender. In addition, each Lender agrees to notify Administrative Agent from time to time to ensure that Administrative Agent has on record (i) an effective address, contact name, telephone number, telecopier number and electronic mail address to which notices and other communications may be sent and (ii) accurate wire instructions for such Lender.   Furthermore, each Public Lender agrees to cause at least one individual at or on behalf of such Public Lender to at all times have selected the “Private Side Information” or similar designation on the content declaration screen of the Platform in order to enable such Public Lender or its delegate, in accordance with such Public Lender’s compliance procedures and applicable Law, including United States Federal and state securities Laws, to make reference to Borrower Materials that are

82

not made available through the “Public Side Information” portion of the Platform and that may contain material non-public information with respect to Borrower or its securities for purposes of United States Federal or state securities laws.

(e)                                  Reliance by Administrative Agent, Issuing Lender and Lenders.  Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices purportedly given by or on behalf of Borrower which are reasonably believed to be genuine and correct even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein, or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. Borrower shall indemnify Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender, each Lender and the Related Parties of each of them from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of Borrower. All telephonic notices to and other telephonic communications with Administrative Agent may be recorded by Administrative Agent, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording.

10.3                           No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies.  No failure by any Lender, the Issuing Lender or Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay by any such Person in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents  against the Borrower Parties or any of them shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 8.2 for the benefit of all the Lenders and the Issuing Lender; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit (a) the Administrative Agent from exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Administrative Agent) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (b) the Issuing Lender or the Swing Line Lender from exercising the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Issuing Lender or Swing Line Lender, as the case may be) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (c) any Lender from exercising setoff rights in accordance with Section 10.8 (subject to the terms of Section 2.14), or (d) any Lender from filing proofs of claim or appearing and filing pleadings on its own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding relative to any Borrower Party under any Debtor Relief Law; and provided, further, that if at any time there is no Person acting as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, then (i) the Requisite Lenders shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 8.2 and (ii) in addition to the matters set forth in clauses (b), (c) and (d) of the preceding proviso and subject to Section 2.14, any Lender may, with the

83

consent of the Requisite Lenders, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Requisite Lenders.

10.4                           Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver.

(a)                                  Costs and Expenses.  Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Administrative Agent and its Affiliates (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for Administrative Agent), in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery and administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Issuing Lender in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder and (iii) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Lender (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Lender), and shall pay all fees and time charges for attorneys who may be employees of Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Lender, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights (A) in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section, or (B) in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit.

(b)                                 Indemnification by Borrower.  Borrower shall indemnify Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof), each Lender and the Issuing Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, penalties, liabilities and related expenses (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee), and shall indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnitee from all fees and time charges and disbursements for attorneys who may be employees of any Indemnitee, incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or by Borrower or any other Borrower Party arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or, in the case of Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof) and its Related Parties only, the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by the Issuing Lender to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or

84

proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by Borrower or any other Borrower Party, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto, in all cases, whether or not caused by or arising, in whole or in part, out of the comparative, contributory or sole negligence of the Indemnitee; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (x) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (y) result from a claim brought by any Borrower Party against an Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if any such Borrower Party has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.

(c)                                  Reimbursement by Lenders.  To the extent that Borrower for any reason fails to indefeasibly pay any amount required under subsection (a) or (b) of this Section to be paid by it to Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), the Issuing Lender or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay to Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), the Issuing Lender or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s Pro Rata Share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount, provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or the Issuing Lender in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or Issuing Lender in connection with such capacity. The obligations of Lenders under this subsection (c) are subject to the provisions of Section 2.14.

(d)                                 Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc.  To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, neither Borrower nor any other Borrower Party shall assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee referred to in subsection (b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

(e)                                  Payments.  All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than ten Business Days after demand therefor.

(f)                                    Survival.  The agreements in this Section shall survive the resignation of Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender, the replacement of any Lender, the

85

termination of the Aggregate Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other Obligations.

10.5                           Payments Set Aside.  To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of Borrower is made to Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any Lender, or Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred, and (b) each Lender and the Issuing Lender severally agrees to pay to Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of Lenders and the Issuing Lender under clause (b) of the preceding sentence shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

10.6                           Successors and Assigns.

(a)                                  Successors and Assigns Generally.  The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that neither Borrower nor any other Borrower Party may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent and each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an Eligible Assignee in accordance with the provisions of subsection (b) of this Section, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of subsection (d) of this Section, (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of subsection (f) of this Section, or (iv) to an SPC in accordance with the provisions of subsection (i) of this Section (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in subsection (d) of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b)                                 Assignments by Lenders.  Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans (including for

86

purposes of this subsection (b), participations in Letter of Credit Usage and in Swing Line Loans) at the time owing to it); provided that:

(i)                                     except in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to a Lender, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date, shall not be less than the Minimum Amount unless each of Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided, however, that concurrent assignments to members of an Assignee Group and concurrent assignments from members of an Assignee Group to a single Eligible Assignee (or to an Eligible Assignee and members of its Assignee Group) will be treated as a single assignment for purposes of determining whether such minimum amount has been met;

(ii)                                  each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loans or the Commitment assigned, except that this clause (ii) shall not apply to rights in respect of Swing Line Loans;

(iii)                               any assignment of a Commitment must be approved by Administrative Agent (which approval will not be unreasonably withheld), the Issuing Lender and the Swing Line Lender unless the Person that is the proposed assignee is itself a Lender (whether or not the proposed assignee would otherwise qualify as an Eligible Assignee); and

(iv)                              the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee in the amount of $3,500; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment. The assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and,

87

in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.1 through 3.3, 3.6 and 10.4 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. Upon request, Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver new or replacement Notes to the assigning Lender and the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with subsection (d) of this Section.

(c)                                  Register.  Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of Borrower, shall maintain at Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Loans and Letter of Credit Usage owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an Eligible Assignee, the Eligible Assignee’s completed administrative questionnaire (unless such Eligible Assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), any processing and recordation fee and any written consent to such assignment required hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register.  No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this clause (c).  The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and Borrower, Administrative Agent and Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower and the Issuing Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. In addition, at any time that a request for a consent for a material or substantive change to the Loan Documents is pending, any Lender may request and receive from Administrative Agent a copy of the Register.

(d)                                 Participations.  Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, Borrower or Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person, a Defaulting Lender, or Borrower or any of Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”); in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans (including such Lender’s participations in Letter of Credit Usage and/or Swing Line Loans) owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) Borrower, Administrative Agent, Lenders and the Issuing Lender shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.

88

Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso to Section 10.1 that affects such Participant. Subject to subsection (e) of this Section, Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.1 through 3.3 and Section 3.6 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.8 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.10 as though it were a Lender

(e)                                  Limitations upon Participant Rights.  A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 3.1 through 3.3 and Section 3.6 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.1 unless Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of Borrower, to comply with Section 10.18 as though it were a Lender.

(f)                                    Certain Pledges.  Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(g)                                 Electronic Execution of Assignments.  The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

(h)                                 As used herein, the following terms have the following meaning:

“Eligible Assignee” means (a) a Lender; (b) an Affiliate of a Lender; (c) an Approved Fund; and (d) any other Person (other than a natural person) approved by (i) Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and the Swing Line Lender, and (ii) unless (A) such Person is taking delivery of an assignment in connection with physical settlement of a credit derivative transaction or (B) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,

89

Borrower (each such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), which approval of any such assignment shall be deemed given by Borrower unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after having received notice thereof; provided that notwithstanding the foregoing, “Eligible Assignee” shall not include (x) Borrower or any of its Affiliates or Subsidiaries or (y) any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (y); provided further that, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, an Eligible Assignee under clause (d) above shall have a minimum of $100,000,000 of combined capital and surplus.

“Fund” means any Person (other than a natural person) that is (or will be) engaged in making, purchasing, holding or otherwise investing in commercial loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its activities.

“Approved Fund” means any Fund that is administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an Affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender.

(i)                                     Special Purpose Funding Vehicles.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to Administrative Agent and Borrower (an “SPC”) the option to provide all or any part of any Committed Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to fund any Committed Loan, and (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to make all or any part of such Committed Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Committed Loan pursuant to the terms hereof or, if it fails to do so, to make such payment to Administrative Agent as is required under Section 2.10(d). Each party hereto hereby agrees that (i) neither the grant to any SPC nor the exercise by any SPC of such option shall increase the costs or expenses or otherwise increase or change the obligations of Borrower under this Agreement (including its obligations under Section 3.2), (ii) no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement for which a Lender would be liable, and (iii) the Granting Lender shall for all purposes, including the approval of any amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of any Loan Document, remain the lender of record hereunder. The making of a Committed Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Committed Loan were made by such Granting Lender. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior debt of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency, or liquidation proceeding under the laws of the United States or any State thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without prior consent of Borrower or Administrative Agent and with the payment of a processing fee in the

90

amount of $3,500, assign all or any portion of its right to receive payment with respect to any Committed Loan to the Granting Lender and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its funding of Committed Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety or guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC.

(j)                                     Resignation as Issuing Lender or Swing Line Lender after Assignment.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time Bank of America assigns all of its Commitment and Loans pursuant to subsection (b) above, Bank of America may, (i) upon 30 days’ notice to Borrower and Lenders, resign as Issuing Lender and/or (ii) upon 30 days’ notice to Borrower, resign as Swing Line Lender.  In the event of any such resignation as Issuing Lender or Swing Line Lender, Borrower shall be entitled to appoint from among Lenders a successor Issuing Lender or Swing Line Lender hereunder; provided, however, that no failure by Borrower to appoint any such successor shall affect the resignation of Bank of America as Issuing Lender or Swing Line Lender, as the case may be. If Bank of America resigns as Issuing Lender, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the Issuing Lender hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as Issuing Lender and all Letter of Credit Usage with respect thereto (including the right to require Lenders to make Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in Unreimbursed Amounts pursuant to Section 2.4). If Bank of America resigns as Swing Line Lender, it shall retain all the rights of the Swing Line Lender provided for hereunder with respect to Swing Line Loans made by it and outstanding as of the effective date of such resignation, including the right to require Lenders to make Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in outstanding Swing Line Loans pursuant to Section 2.3. Upon the appointment of a successor Issuing Lender and/or Swing Line Lender, (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Issuing Lender or Swing Line Lender, as the case may be, and (b) the successor Issuing Lender shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to Bank of America to effectively assume the obligations of Bank of America with respect to such Letters of Credit.
