(b)                                 Notice of Committed Borrowing.  When the Borrower or applicable Qualified Borrower desires to borrow under this Section 2.1, it shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a Notice of Committed Borrowing, signed by it (i) no later than 12:00 noon (New York time) on the proposed Funding Date, in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, (ii) no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) at least three (3) Business Days in advance of the proposed Funding Date, in the case of a Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans, (iii) no later than 11:00 a.m. (London time) at least four (4) Business Days before each Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency, and (iv) no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) at least nine (9) Business Days for the first instance of borrowing by such Foreign Qualified Borrower and thereafter, at least four (4) Business Days, before each Borrowing by a Foreign Qualified Borrower; provided that a Foreign Qualified Borrower may not deliver a Notice of Committed Borrowing until the date that is at least five (5) Business Days following the later of

38

(A) the date of a New Foreign Qualified Borrower Notice or (B) the date of a New Foreign Qualified Borrower Amendment.  Such Notice of Committed Borrowing shall specify (i) the proposed Funding Date (which shall be a Business Day), (ii) the amount of the proposed Borrowing, (iii) the Revolving Credit Availability as of the date of such Notice of Borrowing, (iv) whether the proposed Borrowing will be of Base Rate Loans or Eurodollar Rate Loans, and if Eurodollar Rate Loans are requested other than in Dollars, the Alternative Currency being requested, (v) in the case of Eurodollar Rate Loans, the requested Eurodollar Interest Period, (vi) instructions for the disbursement of the proceeds of the proposed Borrowing, and (vii) if the Notice of Committed Borrowing is delivered by a Foreign Qualified Borrower, the jurisdiction of formation and organization of such Foreign Qualified Borrower.  In lieu of delivering such a Notice of Committed Borrowing (except with respect to a Borrowing of Committed Loans on the Initial Funding Date or to a Foreign Qualified Borrower), the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower may give the Administrative Agent telephonic notice of any proposed Borrowing by the time required under this Section 2.1(b), if the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower confirms such notice by delivery of the Notice of Borrowing to the Administrative Agent by facsimile transmission promptly, but in no event later than 3:00 p.m. (New York time) on the same day.  Any Notice of Borrowing (or telephonic notice in lieu thereof) given pursuant to this Section 2.1(b) shall be irrevocable.

(c)                                  Making of Loans.

(i)                                     Promptly after receipt of a Notice of Committed Borrowing under Section 2.1(b) (or telephonic notice in lieu thereof), the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender by facsimile transmission, or other similar form of transmission, of the proposed Borrowing (which notice to the Lenders, in the case of a Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans, shall be at least three (3) Business Days in advance of the proposed Funding Date for such Loans, or four (4) Business Days in the case of an Alternative Currency Loan, or seven (7) Business Days (for a first borrowing) or four (4) Business Days (for a subsequent borrowing), as applicable, in the case of a Committed Loan to a Foreign Qualified Borrower).  Subject to Section 2.8(i) with respect to Committed Loans to a Foreign Qualified Borrower, each Lender shall deposit an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the Borrowing requested by the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower with the Administrative Agent at its office in New York, New York, in immediately available funds in Dollars or Alternative Currency, as applicable, not later than 12:00 noon (New York time), or (x) in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans for which the Notice of Committed Borrowing was given on such Funding Date, 2:00 p.m. (New York time) or (y) in the case of an Alternative Currency Borrowing, 12:00 noon local time of the Principal Financial Center of the applicable currency, on the respective Funding Date therefor.  Subject to the fulfillment of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 6.1 or Section 6.2, as applicable, the Administrative Agent shall make the proceeds of such amounts received by it available to the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower at the Administrative Agent’s office in New York, New York on such Funding Date (or on the date received if later than such Funding Date) and shall disburse such proceeds in accordance with the Borrower’s or the applicable Qualified Borrower’s disbursement instructions set forth in the applicable Notice of Borrowing.  Subject to the provisions of Section 2.8(i) with respect to Committed Loans to a Foreign Qualified Borrower, the failure of any Lender to deposit the amount described above with

39

the Administrative Agent on the applicable Funding Date shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder to make its Committed Loan on such Funding Date. In the event the conditions precedent set forth in Section 6.1 or 6.2 are not fulfilled as of the proposed Funding Date for any Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall promptly return, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, the amount deposited by each Lender to such Lender.

(ii)                                  Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender on the Business Day immediately preceding the applicable Funding Date (or, in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans for which the Notice of Committed Borrowing was given on such Funding Date, by 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on such Funding Date) in respect of any Borrowing that such Lender does not intend to fund its Committed Loan requested to be made on such Funding Date, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has funded its Committed Loan and is depositing the proceeds thereof with the Administrative Agent on the Funding Date therefor, and the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion may, but shall not be obligated to, disburse a corresponding amount to the Borrower on the applicable Funding Date.  In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower jointly and severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower, the interest rate applicable to the Loan.  If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing and the interest rate applicable to such Borrowing shall be as requested by the Borrower in the applicable Notice of Borrowing. This Section 2.1(c)(ii) does not relieve any Lender of its obligation to make its Committed Loan on any applicable Funding Date.

(d)                                 Optional Increase in Commitments.  Unless a Potential Event of Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, may request on multiple occasions, on or before the date that is six (6) months prior to the Revolving Credit Termination Date, that the Commitments be increased by an amount not less than Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000) per request and not more than One Billion Dollars ($1,000,000,000) in the aggregate (such that the aggregate Commitments after such increases shall never exceed Five Billion Dollars ($5,000,000,000)); provided that for any such request (i) any Lender which is a party to this Agreement prior to such request for increase, at its sole discretion, may elect to increase its Commitment but shall not have any obligation to so increase its Commitment, (ii) any Lender which is a party to this Agreement prior to such request for increase that so elects to increase its Commitment shall be required to increase its Alternative Currency Commitment on a pro rata basis (provided that to the extent any Lender’s Pro Rata Share of Alternative Currency Commitments was zero prior to such increase, then such Lender shall not be required to allocate any portion of such increase to an Alternative Currency

40

Commitment), and (iii) in the event that any Lender which is a party to this Agreement prior to such request for increase does not elect to increase its Commitment, the Administrative Agent and the Syndication Agent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to locate additional Eligible Assignees willing to provide commitments for the requested increase, and the Borrower may also identify additional Eligible Assignees willing to provide commitments for the requested increase, provided further that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Swingline Lenders shall approve any such additional Eligible Assignees that are not Lenders with an existing Revolving Credit Commitment, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.  In the event that Eligible Assignees commit to any such increase, the Commitments of the committed Lenders shall be increased, the Pro Rata Shares of the Lenders shall be adjusted, Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower shall make such borrowings and repayments as shall be necessary to effect the reallocation of the Committed Loans so that the Committed Loans are held by the Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares after giving effect to such increase, and other changes shall be made to the Loan Documents as may be necessary to reflect the aggregate amount, if any, by which Lenders have agreed to increase their respective Commitments or make new Commitments in response to the Borrower’s request for an increase in the aggregate Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.1(d), in each case without the consent of the Lenders other than those Lenders increasing their Commitments.  The fees payable by Borrower upon any such increase in the Commitments shall be agreed upon by the Administrative Agent and Borrower at the time of such increase.  In addition, if as a result of any such increase in the Commitments, there shall be a reallocation of Eurodollar Rate Loans, Borrower shall pay any amounts that may be due pursuant to Section 5.2(f) hereof.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 2.1(d) shall constitute or be deemed to constitute an agreement by any Lender to increase its Commitment hereunder.

2.2                               Money Market Loans.

(a)                                 The Money Market Option.  From time to time during the Revolving Credit Period, and provided that at such time the Borrower maintains an Investment Grade Credit Rating, the Borrower may, as set forth in this Section 2.2, request the Lenders during the Revolving Credit Period to make offers to make Money Market Loans in Dollars or Alternative Currency to the Borrower, provided that the aggregate outstanding amount of such Money Market Loans shall not exceed, at any time, the lesser of (i) sixty five percent (65%) of the Maximum Revolving Credit Amount and (ii) the Revolving Credit Availability; and provided further that after giving effect to any Money Market Loan denominated in an Alternative Currency, the Dollar Equivalent Amount of all Alternative Currency Loans and all Letter of Credit Obligations with respect to Alternative Currency Letters of Credit shall not exceed the Alternative Currency Sublimit.  Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Borrower may repay any outstanding Money Market Loan on any day which is a Business Day and any amounts so repaid may be reborrowed, up to the amount available under this Section 2.2(a) at the time of such Borrowing, until the Business Day next preceding the Revolving Credit Termination Date.  The Lenders may, but shall have no obligation to, make such offers and the Borrower may, but shall have no obligation to, accept any such offers in the manner set forth in this Section 2.2.

The Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, the Co-Agents, the Lenders and any Issuing Bank shall be entitled to rely conclusively on such employee’s or agent’s authority to request such Loan or Letter of Credit or such conversion/continuation until the Administrative Agent and the Arrangers receive written notice to the contrary.  None of the Administrative Agent or the Arrangers shall have any duty to verify the authenticity of the signature appearing on any written Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation or any other document, and, with respect to an oral request for such a Loan or Letter of Credit or such conversion/continuation, the Administrative Agent and the Arrangers shall have no duty to verify the identity of any person representing himself or herself as one of the employees or agents authorized to make such request or otherwise to act on behalf of the Borrower.  None of the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers or the Lenders shall incur any liability to the Borrower or any other Person in acting upon any telephonic or facsimile notice referred to above which the Administrative Agent or the Arrangers believes to have been given by a person duly authorized to act on behalf of the Borrower and the Borrower hereby indemnifies and holds harmless the Administrative Agent, each Arranger and each other Lender from any loss or expense the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers or the Lenders might incur in acting in good faith as provided in this Section 2.7.

2.8                               Special Provisions Regarding Alternative Currency Loans and Loans to Foreign Qualified Borrowers.

(a)                                 Upon the occurrence of an Automatic Sharing Event, automatically (and without the taking of any action), or upon the occurrence of an Elective Sharing Event, upon three (3) Business Days’ notice from the applicable Lender to the Administrative Agent and Borrower, (x) all then outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loans denominated in the Alternative Currency (in the case of an Elective Sharing Event, however, only with respect to all such Loans of the applicable Lender) shall be automatically converted into Base Rate Loans denominated in Dollars (in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent Amount of the aggregate principal amount of the applicable Eurodollar Rate Loans on the date such Sharing Event first occurred, which Loans denominated in Dollars (i) shall thereafter continue to be deemed to be Base Rate Loans and (ii) unless the Sharing Event resulted solely from a termination of the Commitments, shall be immediately due and payable on the date such Sharing Event has occurred), and (y) unless the Sharing Event resulted solely from a termination of the Commitments, all accrued and unpaid

47

interest and other amounts owing with respect to such Loans (in the case of an Elective Sharing Event, however, only with respect to all such Loans of the applicable Lender) shall be immediately due and payable in Dollars, such accrued and unpaid interest and other amounts having been converted into a Dollar Equivalent Amount.

(b)                                 Upon the occurrence of a Sharing Event, and after giving effect to any automatic or elective conversion pursuant to Section 2.8(a), each Lender in the case of an Automatic Sharing Event or each applicable Lender in the case of an Elective Sharing Event shall (and hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees to) purchase and sell (in each case in Dollars) undivided participating interests in all such Loans outstanding to Borrower in such amounts so that each Lender shall have a share of such outstanding Loans then owing by Borrower equal to its Pro Rata Share of the Commitments (although if because of fluctuations in currency exchange rates any Lender would be required to purchase such participations after giving effect to which such Lender’s allocated share of all Loans and Letter of Credit Obligations (including participations therein purchased pursuant to this Section 2.8) would exceed the Dollar Equivalent Amount of such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment, then such participations shall be in an amount after giving effect to which such Lender’s allocated share of all Loans and Letter of Credit Obligations (including participations therein purchased pursuant to this Section 2.8) would equal the Dollar Equivalent Amount of such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment).  Upon any such occurrence, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender and shall specify the amount of Dollars required from such Lender in order to effect the purchases and sales by the various Lenders of participating interests in the amounts required above (together with accrued interest with respect to the period for the last interest payment date through the date of the Sharing Event plus any additional amounts payable by Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.8 in respect of such accrued but unpaid interest); provided, in the event that a Sharing Event shall have occurred, each Lender shall be deemed to have purchased, automatically and without request, such participating interests. Promptly upon receipt of such request, each Lender shall deliver to the Administrative Agent (in immediately available funds in Dollars) the net amounts as specified by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver the amounts so received to the various Lenders in such amounts as are needed to effect the purchases and sales of participations as provided above. Promptly following receipt thereof, each Lender which has sold participations in any of its Loans (through the Administrative Agent) will deliver to each Lender (through the Administrative Agent) which has so purchased a participating interest a participation certificate dated the date of receipt of such funds and in such amount. It is understood that the amount of funds delivered by each Lender shall be calculated on a net basis, giving effect to both the sales and purchases of participations by the various Lenders as required above.

(c)                                  Upon the occurrence of an Automatic Sharing Event or an Elective Sharing Event with respect to the applicable electing Lenders (i) no further Alternative Currency Loans shall be made, (ii) all amounts from time to time accruing with respect to, and all amounts from time to time payable on account of, any outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loans initially denominated in the Alternative Currency (including, without limitation, any interest and other amounts which were accrued but unpaid on the date of such purchase) shall be payable in Dollars as if such Eurodollar Rate Loans had originally been made in Dollars and shall be distributed by the relevant Lenders (or their Affiliates) to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders which made such Loans or are participating therein and (iii) the Commitments of the

48

Lenders shall be automatically terminated. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above, the failure of any Lender to purchase its participating interest in any Loans upon the occurrence of a Sharing Event shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to purchase its participating interests in a timely manner, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to purchase the participating interest to be purchased by such other Lender on any date.

(d)                                 If any amount required to be paid by any Lender pursuant to Section 2.8(b) is not paid to the Administrative Agent within one (1) Business Day following the date upon which such Lender receives notice from the Administrative Agent of the amount of its participations required to be purchased pursuant to said Section 2.8(b), such Lender shall also pay to the Administrative Agent on demand an amount equal to the product of (i) the amount so required to be paid by such Lender for the purchase of its participations times (ii) the daily average Federal Funds Rate during the period from and including the date of request for payment to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the Administrative Agent times (iii) a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days that elapsed during such period and the denominator of which is 360. If any such amount required to be paid by any Lender pursuant to Section 2.8(b) is not in fact made available to the Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days following the date upon which such Lender receives notice from the Administrative Agent as to the amount of participations required to be purchased by it, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover from such Lender on demand, such amount with interest thereon calculated from such request date at the rate per annum applicable to Base Rate Loans hereunder. A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts payable by any Lender pursuant to this Section 2.8 shall be paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant Lenders; provided that, if the Administrative Agent (in its sole discretion) has elected to fund on behalf of such Lender the amounts owing to such Lenders, then the amounts shall be paid to the Administrative Agent for its own account.

(e)                                  Whenever, at any time after the relevant Lenders have received from any Lenders purchases of participations in any Loans pursuant to this Section 2.8, the Lenders receive any payment on account thereof, such Lenders will distribute to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the various Lenders participating therein, such Lenders’ participating interests in such amounts (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such participations were outstanding) in like funds as received; provided, however, that in the event that such payment received by any Lenders are required to be returned, the Lenders who received previous distributions in respect of their participating interests therein will return to the respective Lenders any portion thereof previously so distributed to them in like funds as such payment is required to be returned by the respective Lenders.

(f)                                   Each Lender’s obligation to purchase participating interests pursuant to this Section 2.8 shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance including, without limitation, (a) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against any other Lender, Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (b) the occurrence or continuance of an Event of Default, (c) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of Borrower or any other Person, (d) any

49

breach of this Agreement by the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or any Lender or any other Person, or (e) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

(g)                                  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement, upon any purchase of participations as required above, each Lender which has purchased such participations shall be entitled to receive from Borrower any increased costs and indemnities directly from Borrower to the same extent as if it were the direct Lender as opposed to a participant therein. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that, upon the occurrence of a Sharing Event and after giving effect to the requirements of this Section 2.8, increased Taxes may be owing by the Borrower pursuant to Section 13.1, which Taxes shall be paid (to the extent provided in Section 13.1) by Borrower, without any claim that the increased Taxes are not payable because same resulted from the participations effected as otherwise required by this Section 2.8.

(h)                                 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement, subject to the reasonable approval of the Administrative Agent, from time to time, the Borrower may request that the definition of “Alternative Currencies” be amended to include one or more additional alternative currencies specified at such time by the Borrower. If less than all the Lenders holding Alternative Currency Commitments shall agree to such proposed amendment, then any such amendment shall be subject to a sufficient numbers of such Lenders agreeing to fund in such additional alternative currency or currencies as the Administrative Agent shall deem to be practicable and shall include any such other changes as the Administrative Agent and such Lenders shall deem to be reasonably necessary to effectuate such amendment. Nothing in this Section 2.8(h) shall constitute or be deemed to constitute an agreement by any Lender to fund any additional alternative currency even if such an amendment shall be entered into.

(i)                                     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement, in the event a Foreign Qualified Borrower delivers a Notice of Committed Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.1, on or before 3:00 p.m. on the day that is five (5) Business Days after the Administrative Agent notifies such Lender of the proposed Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.1(c)(i) (the “Election Deadline”), each Lender with an Alternative Currency Commitment shall notify the Administrative Agent that it elects to either (x) fund such Committed Loan to the applicable Foreign Qualified Borrower or (y) not fund such Committed Loan to the applicable Foreign Qualified Borrower.  If any such Lender fails to notify the Administrative Agent of such election on or before the Election Deadline, then such Lender shall be irrevocably deemed to have elected not to make such Committed Loan.  Based on the results of such elections, the following shall apply:

(i)                                     If all Lenders with an Alternative Currency Commitment elect to fund such Committed Loan to the applicable Foreign Qualified Borrower, then the provisions of Section 2.1(c)(i) shall apply without modification.

(ii)                                  If no Lenders with an Alternative Currency Commitment elect to fund such Committed Loan to the applicable Foreign Qualified Borrower, then the

50

applicable Foreign Qualified Borrower shall be deemed never to have submitted a Notice of Committed Borrowing.

(iii)                               If some but less than all of the Lenders with an Alternative Currency Commitment elect to make such Committed Loan to the applicable Foreign Qualified Borrower, then the Pro Rata Shares of the Lenders with an Alternative Currency Commitment electing to make such Committed Loan to such applicable Foreign Qualified Borrower shall be increased with respect to such Committed Loan in proportion to their respective Alternative Currency Commitments such that the sum of such Lenders’ Pro Rata Shares is 100%; provided, however, that in no event shall a Lender be required to fund a cumulative aggregate amount exceeding its Alternative Currency Commitment.  If the limitation on Lenders’ funding obligations provided in the preceding sentence results in an amount less than the amount of the proposed Borrowing set forth in the Notice of Committed Borrowing being funded, then such amount of proposed Borrowing shall be deemed to be reduced to the amount funded in accordance with this Section 2.8(i)(iii).

(j)                                    Limitation on Foreign Qualified Borrowers.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Foreign Qualified Borrowers may borrow only in an Alternative Currency.  In no event shall a Foreign Qualified Borrower have the right to borrow hereunder in Dollars.

(a)                                 Swingline Commitment.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 2.9, each Swingline Lender, in its individual capacity, severally agrees to make certain revolving credit loans to the Borrower or any Qualified Borrower in Dollars or in Euros or Yen (each a “Swingline Loan” and, collectively, the “Swingline Loans”) from time to time during the term hereof to the extent that such Swingline Lender has a Swingline Commitment for such currency; provided, however, that (v) after giving effect to such Swingline Loan, the aggregate outstanding amount of Swingline Loans in the applicable currency made by such Swingline Lender shall not exceed such Swingline Lender’s Swingline Commitment for such currency, (w) after giving effect to such Swingline Loan, such Swingline Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure shall not exceed its Revolving Credit Commitment, (x) the aggregate amount of Swingline Loans (including Alternative Currency Swingline Loans, the amount of which shall be calculated based on the Dollar Equivalent Amount thereof) outstanding at any time shall not exceed the lesser of (i) 400,000,000, and (ii) the Revolving Credit Availability, (y) after giving effect to any Alternative Currency Swingline Loan, the sum of all Alternative Currency Loans and Letter of Credit Obligations with respect to Alternative Currency Letters of Credit shall not exceed the Alternative Currency Sublimit and (z) no Swingline Loans shall be made to any Foreign Qualified Borrower organized or domiciled in Japan.  Subject to the limitations set forth herein, any amounts repaid in respect of Swingline Loans may be reborrowed.

(b)                                 Swingline Borrowings.

(i)                                     Notice of Borrowing.  With respect to any Swingline Borrowing, the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent

(ii)                                  Minimum Amounts.  Each Swingline Borrowing shall be in a minimum principal amount of $3,000,000, or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (or the Dollar Equivalents thereof, if an Alternative Currency Swingline Loan).

(iii)                               Repayment of Swingline Loans.  Each Swingline Loan shall be due and payable on the earliest of (A) 10 days from and including the date of the applicable Swingline Borrowing, (B) the date of the next Committed Borrowing (subject to the following sentence) or (C) the Revolving Credit Termination Date.  If, and to the extent, any Swingline Loans shall be outstanding on the date of any Committed Borrowing which is denominated in the currency in which such Swingline Loan was made, such Swingline Loans shall first be repaid from the proceeds of such Committed Borrowing prior to the disbursement of the same to the Borrower or the Qualified Borrower, as applicable.  With respect to any Swingline Borrowing denominated in Dollars, if, and to the extent a Committed Borrowing denominated in Dollars is not requested prior to the Revolving Credit Termination Date or the end of the 10 day period

52

after such Swingline Borrowing, and unless the Borrower shall have notified the Administrative Agent and the Swingline Lenders prior to 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the fourth (4th) Business Day after such Swingline Borrowing that the Borrower intends to reimburse the Swingline Lenders for the amount of such Swingline Borrowing with funds other than proceeds of the Loans, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Committed Borrowing denominated in Dollars comprised entirely of Base Rate Loans in the amount of the applicable Swingline Loan then outstanding, the proceeds of which shall be used to repay such Swingline Loan to the Swingline Lenders.  With respect to any Swingline Borrowing denominated in an Alternative Currency, unless the Borrower shall have notified the Administrative Agent and the Swingline Lenders prior to 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the second (2nd) day after such Swingline Borrowing that the Borrower intends to reimburse the Swingline Lenders for the amount of such Swingline Borrowing with funds other than proceeds of the Loans, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Committed Borrowing denominated in such Alternative Currency comprised entirety of Eurodollar Rate Loans with an Interest Period of seven (7) days in the amount of the applicable Swingline Loan then outstanding, the proceeds of which shall be used to repay such Swingline Loan to the Swingline Lenders.  In addition, if (x) the Borrower does not repay the Swingline Loan on or prior to the end of such 10 day period, or (y) a Potential Event of Default or Event of Default shall have occurred during such 10 day period, any Swingline Lender may, at any time, in its sole discretion, by written notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, demand repayment of its Swingline Loans by way of a Committed Borrowing, in which case the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Committed Borrowing comprised entirely of Base Rate Loans (if such Swingline Loans are denominated in Dollars) or Eurodollar Rate Loans with an Interest Period of seven (7) days (if such Swingline Loans are denominated in an Alternative Currency) in the amount of such Swingline Loans then outstanding, the proceeds of which shall be used to repay such Swingline Loans to the Swingline Lenders.  Any Committed Borrowing which is deemed requested by the Borrower in accordance with this Section 2.9(b)(iii) is hereinafter referred to as a “Mandatory Borrowing”.  Each Lender hereby irrevocably agrees to make Committed Loans promptly upon receipt of notice from a Swingline Lender of any such deemed request for a Mandatory Borrowing in the amount and in the manner specified in the preceding sentences and (x) on the date such notice is received by such Lender (or the next Business Day if such notice is received after 12:00 noon (New York City time)), in the case of Committed Loans denominated in Dollars or (y) on the third (3rd) Business Day after such notice is received by such Lender (or the next Business Day thereafter if such notice is received after 12:00 noon (New York City time)), in the case of Committed Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency, in each case notwithstanding (I) that the amount of the Mandatory Borrowing may not comply with the minimum amount of Committed Borrowings otherwise required hereunder, (II) whether any conditions specified in Section 6.2 are then satisfied, (III) whether a Potential Event of Default or an Event of Default then exists, (IV) failure of any such deemed request for a Committed Borrowing to be made by the time otherwise required in Section 2.1, (V) the date of such Mandatory Borrowing (provided that such date must be a Business Day), or (VI) any termination of the Commitments immediately prior to such Mandatory Borrowing or contemporaneously therewith; provided, however, that no Lender shall be obligated to

53

make Committed Loans in respect of a Mandatory Borrowing if a Potential Event of Default or an Event of Default then exists and the applicable Swingline Loan was made by the Swingline Lenders without receipt of a written Notice of Borrowing in the form specified in subclause (i) above or after the Administrative Agent has delivered a notice of Potential Event of Default or Event of Default which has not been rescinded.

(iv)                              Purchase of Participations.  In the event that any Mandatory Borrowing cannot for any reason be made on the date otherwise required above (including, without limitation, as a result of the commencement of a proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code with respect to the Borrower), then each Lender hereby agrees that it shall forthwith purchase (as of the date the Mandatory Borrowing would otherwise have occurred, but adjusted for any payment received from the Borrower on or after such date and prior to such purchase) from the Swingline Lenders such participations in the outstanding Swingline Loans as shall be necessary to cause each such Lender to share in such Swingline Loans ratably based upon its Pro Rata Share (determined before giving effect to any termination of the Commitments pursuant hereto), provided that (A) all interest payable on the Swingline Loans with respect to any participation shall be for the account of the Swingline Lenders until but excluding the day upon which the Mandatory Borrowing would otherwise have occurred, and (B) in the event of a delay between the day upon which the Mandatory Borrowing would otherwise have occurred and the time any purchase of a participation pursuant to this sentence is actually made, the purchasing Lender shall be required to pay to the Swingline Lenders interest on the principal amount of such participation for each day from and including the day upon which the Mandatory Borrowing would otherwise have occurred to but excluding the date of payment for such participation, at the rate equal to the Federal Funds Rate, for the two (2) Business Days after the date the Mandatory Borrowing would otherwise have occurred, and thereafter at a rate equal to the Base Rate.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender shall be obligated to purchase a participation in any Swingline Loan if a Potential Event of Default or an Event of Default then exists and such Swingline Loan was made by the Swingline Lenders without receipt of a written Notice of Borrowing in the form specified in subclause (i) above or after the Administrative Agent has delivered a notice of Potential Event of Default or Event of Default which has not been rescinded.

(c)                                  Interest Rate.  Each Swingline Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for each day from the date such Swingline Loan is made until the date it is repaid, at a rate per annum equal to (A) the Federal Funds Rate, in the case of a Swingline Loan denominated in Dollars or (B) the Base Eurocurrency Rate for an overnight borrowing, in the case of an Alternative Currency Swingline Loan denominated in Euros or Yen, in each case plus the Applicable Margin for Eurodollar Rate Loans for such day.

2.10                        Qualified Borrowers.

(a)                                 The Borrower may, at any time or from time to time, request that one or more Qualified Borrowers be added to this Agreement by notifying the Administrative Agent thereof in substantially the form of Exhibit O hereto (including the jurisdiction of formation thereof), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender. Borrower shall, or shall cause such Qualified Borrower to, deliver all documents required to be delivered pursuant

54

to Sections 6.1 and 6.2(d) with respect to a proposed Qualified Borrower, including, without limitation, copies of all Organizational Documents, good standing certificates (if applicable), and resolutions, each of which shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.  Following the giving of any request pursuant to this Section 2.10, if the request for such Qualified Borrower obligates the Administrative Agent or any Lender to comply with “know your customer” or similar identification procedures in circumstances where the necessary information is not already available to it, the Borrower shall, promptly upon the request of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, supply such documentation and other evidence as is reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in order for the Administrative Agent or such Lender to carry out and be satisfied it has complied with the results of all necessary “know your customer” or other similar checks under all applicable laws and regulations.  Upon delivery of the documentation and information required above to the reasonable satisfaction of the Administrative Agent, the proposed Qualified Borrower shall become a Qualified Borrower under this Agreement and the Administrative Agent shall give written notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders (a “New Foreign Qualified Borrower Notice”).  If the jurisdiction of organization of any proposed Qualified Borrower would require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to comply with any Requirements of Law (including, without limitation any provisions relating to tax treaty status with respect to loans to Foreign Qualified Borrowers organized in the United Kingdom or anti-social forces representations and covenants with respect to Foreign Qualified Borrowers organized in Japan) then the Borrower and the Administrative Agent may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to implement the provisions of this Section, a copy of which amendment (a “New Foreign Qualified Borrower Amendment”) shall be made available to each Lender.  Nothing contained in this Section 2.10(a) shall limit the provisions of Section 2.8(i).

(b)                                 If the Borrower shall designate as a Qualified Borrower hereunder any entity not organized under the laws of the United States or any State thereof, any Lender may, with notice to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, fulfill its Commitment by causing any domestic or foreign branch or an Affiliate of such Lender to act as the Bank in respect of such Qualified Borrower (and such Lender shall, to the extent of Loans  made to, and participations in Letters of Credit issued for the account of such Qualified Borrower, be deemed for all purposes hereof to have pro tanto assigned such Loans and participations to such branch or Affiliate in compliance with the provisions of Section 14.16 (but only for so long as such Loans or Letters of Credit shall be outstanding) except that unless such branch or Affiliate is a Eligible Assignee, nothing herein shall be deemed to have relieved such Lender from its obligations under its Commitments).  Any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of a Qualified Borrower to repay any Credit Extension made by such branch or Affiliate.

(i)                                     if the aggregate Letter of Credit Obligations with respect to such Issuing Bank, after giving effect to the issuance, amendment or extension of the Letter of Credit or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit requested hereunder, shall exceed any limit imposed by law or regulation upon such Issuing Bank;

(ii)                                  if, immediately after giving effect to the issuance, amendment or extension of such Letter of Credit or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit, (1) the Letter of Credit Obligations at such time would exceed $150,000,000 with respect to Letters of Credit (including Alternative Currency Letters of Credit, the amount of which shall be calculated based on the Dollar Equivalent Amount thereof), or (2) the aggregate amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit issued by any Issuing Bank at any time would exceed its Letter of Credit Commitment at such time (unless otherwise agreed by such Issuing Bank), or (3) the Revolving Credit Obligations at such time would exceed the Maximum Revolving Credit Amount at such time, or (4) such Issuing Bank’s Revolving Credit Exposure would exceed its Revolving Credit Commitment, or (5) the sum of the Loans in the Alternative Currency and the Letter of Credit Obligations with respect to Alternative Currency Letters of Credit at such time would exceed the Alternative Currency Sublimit, or (6) one or more of the conditions precedent contained in Sections 6.1 or 6.2, as applicable, would not on such date be satisfied, unless such conditions are thereafter satisfied and written notice of such satisfaction is given to such Issuing Bank by the Administrative Agent (and such Issuing Bank shall not otherwise be required to determine that, or take notice whether, the conditions precedent set forth in Sections 6.1 or 6.2, as applicable, have been satisfied);

(iii)                               which has an expiration date later than the first anniversary of the then Revolving Credit Termination Date;

(iv)                              which is in a currency other than Dollars or an Alternative Currency;

(v)                                 (A) where the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit is a Sanctioned Person, (B) to secure any transaction or the undertaking of any activity or business of or with any Sanctioned Person, or in any country or territory, that at the time of such issuance is the subject of any Sanctions or (C) in any manner that would result in a violation of any Sanctions by any party to this Agreement;

56

(vi)                              if any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain the Issuing Bank from issuing the Letter of Credit, or any Law applicable to the Issuing Bank or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over the Issuing Bank shall prohibit, or request that the Issuing Bank refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or the Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon the Issuing Bank with respect to the Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which the Issuing Bank is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon the Issuing Bank any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date and which the Issuing Bank in good faith deems material to it; or

(vii)                           if the issuance of the Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of the Issuing Bank applicable to letters of credit generally.

For the avoidance of doubt, if the Administrative Agent and Bank of America, N.A. (and/or any other Lender or Affiliate of a Lender designated by the Borrower, with such Lender’s consent, to issue a Letter of Credit) are not obligated or permitted pursuant to any of the preceding paragraphs of this Section 3.1(a) to issue a Letter of Credit but another Lender designated by the Borrower, with such Lender’s consent, to issue such Letter of Credit (a “Replacement Issuing Bank”) is not prohibited from issuing such Letter of Credit pursuant to any of the preceding paragraphs of this Section 3.1(a), then the Replacement Issuing Bank shall, subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, issue such Letter of Credit.  The Borrower may, at any time and from time to time, reduce the Letter of Credit Commitment of any Issuing Bank with the consent of such Issuing Bank; provided that the Borrower shall not reduce the Letter of Credit Commitment of any Issuing Bank if, after giving effect of such reduction, the conditions set forth in clause (ii) above shall not be satisfied.

(b)                                 Conditions.  In addition to being subject to the satisfaction of the conditions precedent contained in Sections 6.1 and 6.2, as applicable, the obligation of an Issuing Bank to issue, amend or extend any Letter of Credit and/or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit is subject to the satisfaction in full of the following conditions:

(i)                                     if the Issuing Bank so requests, the Borrower shall have executed and delivered to such Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent a Letter of Credit Reimbursement Agreement and Application and such other documents and materials as may be required pursuant to the terms thereof; it being agreed that in the event of any inconsistencies between this Agreement and such Letter of Credit Agreement and Application, the provisions of this Agreement shall control; and

(ii)                                  the terms of the proposed Letter of Credit and/or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit shall be satisfactory to the Issuing Bank in its sole discretion.

(c)                                  Issuance of Letters of Credit.

(i)                                     The Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank written notice that it requires the issuance of

57

a Letter of Credit or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the third (3rd) Business Day preceding the requested date for issuance thereof under this Agreement.  Such notice shall be irrevocable unless and until such request is denied by the applicable Arranger and shall specify (A) that the requested Letter of Credit or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit is either a Commercial Letter of Credit or a Standby Letter of Credit, (B) that such Letter of Credit or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit is solely for the account of the Borrower or such Qualified Borrower, (C) the stated amount of the Letter of Credit or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit requested, (D) the effective date (which shall be a Business Day) of issuance of such Letter of Credit or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit, (E) the date on which such Letter of Credit or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall be a Business Day and no later than the Business Day immediately preceding the first anniversary of the then scheduled Revolving Credit Termination Date), (F) the Person for whose benefit such Letter of Credit or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit is to be issued, (G) other relevant terms of such Letter of Credit or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit, (H) the Revolving Credit Availability at such time, and (I) the amount of the then outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations.

(ii)                                  The Borrower or such Qualified Borrower shall select one or more Lenders with a Letter of Credit Commitment to act as the Issuing Bank with respect to such Letter of Credit and/or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit, which selection shall be in the sole discretion of the Borrower.  If such Issuing Bank is unable or declines to issue the Letter of Credit and/or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit, the Borrower or such Qualified Borrower shall select an alternative Issuing Bank with such Issuing Bank’s written consent to issue such Letter of Credit and/or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit.  The Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts, to the extent practicable, to cause the Letters of Credit to be issued by the Issuing Banks on a proportionate basis in accordance with their proportionate share of the Letter of Credit Commitments, although, for the avoidance of doubt, no single Letter of Credit will be required to be issued by more than one Issuing Bank unless the amount of such Letter of Credit will exceed the available Letter of Credit Commitment of the applicable Issuing Bank (unless otherwise agreed by such Issuing Bank).

(iii)                               The selected Issuing Bank (if not the Administrative Agent) shall give the Administrative Agent written notice, or telephonic notice confirmed promptly thereafter in writing, of the issuance, amendment or extension of a Letter of Credit and/or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit(which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit by telegram, facsimile transmission, or similar transmission to each Lender).

(iv)                              If the Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Notice, the Issuing Bank shall 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 Bank 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

58

be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued.  Unless otherwise directed by the Issuing Bank, the Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to the Issuing Bank 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 Bank to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than the Business Day immediately preceding the first anniversary of the Revolving Credit Termination Date; provided, however, that the Issuing Bank shall not permit any such extension if (A) the Issuing Bank has determined that it would not be permitted, or would have no obligation, at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its revised form (as extended) under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of Section 3.1(a) or otherwise), 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 from the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 6.2 is not then satisfied, and in each such case directing the Issuing Bank not to permit such extension.

(d)                                 Reimbursement Obligations; Duties of Issuing Banks and other Lenders.

(i)                                     Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary in any Letter of Credit Reimbursement Agreement, if an Issuing Bank shall make any disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower shall reimburse such Issuing Bank in respect of such Reimbursement Obligation by paying to the Issuing Bank an amount equal to such Reimbursement Obligation not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on (i) the Business Day that the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower receives notice of such disbursement, if such notice is received prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, or (ii) the Business Day immediately following the day that the Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is not received prior to such time (such date, the “Reimbursement Date”), provided that the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.1 that such payment be financed with a Base Rate Borrowing in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Borrower’s or the applicable Qualified Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting Base Rate Borrowing.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the case of Alternative Currency Letters of Credit, the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower shall reimburse any applicable drawing thereunder in the Alternative Currency in which such Alternative Letter of Credit was denominated; provided, however, that if (A) any such drawing is made at a time when an Event of Default exists or a Sharing Event shall have occurred or (B) the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower shall not have notified the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, at least two (2) Business Days immediately prior to such drawing that the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower intends to reimburse the Issuing Bank in the applicable Alternative Currency, then, in either such case, such reimbursement shall instead be made by payment in Dollars of the Dollar Equivalent amount of such drawing and in immediately available funds.

59

(ii)                                  The Issuing Bank shall give the Administrative Agent written notice, or telephonic notice confirmed promptly thereafter in writing, of all drawings under a Letter of Credit and/or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit and the payment (or the failure to pay when due) by the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower on account of a Reimbursement Obligation (which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit by telegram, facsimile transmission or similar transmission to each Lender).

(iii)                               No action taken or omitted in good faith by an Issuing Bank under or in connection with any Letter of Credit and/or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit shall put such Issuing Bank under any resulting liability to any Lender, the Borrower or Qualified Borrower or, so long as it is not issued in violation of Section 3.1(a), relieve any Lender of its obligations hereunder to such Issuing Bank.  Solely as between the Issuing Banks and the other Lenders, in determining whether to pay under any Letter of Credit and/or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank shall have no obligation to the other Lenders other than to confirm that any documents required to be delivered under a respective Letter of Credit and/or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit appear to have been delivered and that they appear on their face to comply with the requirements of such Letter of Credit and/or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit.

(e)                                  Participations.

(i)                                     Immediately upon issuance by an Issuing Bank of any Letter of Credit and/or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 3.1, each Lender shall be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased and received from that Issuing Bank, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in such Letter of Credit and/or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit to the extent of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share, including, without limitation, all obligations of the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower with respect thereto (other than amounts owing to the Issuing Bank under Section 3.1(g)) and any security therefor and guaranty pertaining thereto.

(ii)                                  If any Issuing Bank makes any payment under any Letter of Credit and/or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit and the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower does not repay such amount to the Issuing Bank on the Reimbursement Date, the Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, which shall promptly notify each other Lender, and each Lender shall promptly and unconditionally pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank, in immediately available funds, the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such payment (net of that portion of such payment, if any, made by such Issuing Bank in its capacity as an issuer of a Letter of Credit and/or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to such Issuing Bank such amounts received by it, and any other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for such Issuing Bank’s account, pursuant to this Section 3.1(e).  If a Lender does not make its Pro Rata Share of the amount of such payment available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank, forthwith on demand, such amount together with interest thereon at the greater of the Base Rate and a rate

60

determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. The failure of any Lender to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of an Issuing Bank its Pro Rata Share of any such payment shall neither relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank such other Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any payment on the date such payment is to be made nor increase the obligation of any other Lender to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.

(iii)                               Whenever an Issuing Bank receives a payment on account of a Reimbursement Obligation, including any interest thereon, as to which the Administrative Agent has previously received payments from any other Lender for the account of such Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section 3.1(e), such Issuing Bank shall promptly pay to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to each other Lender an amount equal to such other Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof.  Each such payment shall be made by such reimbursed Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, on the Business Day on which such Person receives the funds paid to such Person pursuant to the preceding sentence, if received prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on such Business Day, and otherwise on the next succeeding Business Day.

(iv)                              Upon the written request of any Lender, the Issuing Banks shall furnish such requesting Lender copies of any Letter of Credit and/or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit, Letter of Credit Reimbursement Agreement, and related amendment to which such Issuing Bank is party and such other documentation as reasonably may be requested by the requesting Lender.

(v)                                 The obligations of a Lender to make payments to the Administrative Agent for the account of any Issuing Bank with respect to a Letter of Credit and/or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit shall be irrevocable, shall not be subject to any qualification or exception whatsoever except willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Issuing Bank, and shall be honored in accordance with this Article III (irrespective of the satisfaction of the conditions described in Sections 6.1 and 6.2, as applicable) under all circumstances, including, without limitation, any of the following circumstances:

(A)                               any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents;

(B)                               the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right which the Borrower or any Qualified Borrower may have at any time against a beneficiary named in a Letter of Credit and/or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit or any transferee of a beneficiary named in a Letter of Credit and/or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit(or any Person for whom any such transferee may be acting), any Lender, or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any Letter of Credit and/or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transactions (including any

61

underlying transactions between the account party and beneficiary named in any Letter of Credit and/or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit);

(C)                               any draft, certificate or any other document presented under the Letter of Credit and/or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit having been determined to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect;

(D)                               the surrender or impairment of any security for the performance or observance of any of the terms of any of the Loan Documents;

(E)                                any failure by that Issuing Bank to make any reports required pursuant to Section 3.1(h) or the inaccuracy of any such report; or

(F)                                 the occurrence of any Event of Default or Potential Event of Default.

(f)                                   Payment of Reimbursement Obligations.

(i)                                     The Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower unconditionally agrees to pay to each Issuing Bank, in Dollars or Alternative Currency, as applicable, the amount of all Reimbursement Obligations, interest and other amounts payable to such Issuing Bank under or in connection with the Letters of Credit and/or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit when such amounts are due and payable, irrespective of any claim, setoff, defense or other right which the Borrower may have at any time against any Issuing Bank or any other Person.

(ii)                                  In the event any payment by the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower received by an Issuing Bank with respect to a Letter of Credit and/or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit and distributed by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders on account of their participations is thereafter set aside, avoided or recovered from such Issuing Bank in connection with any receivership, liquidation or bankruptcy proceeding, each Lender which received such distribution shall, upon demand by such Issuing Bank, contribute such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the amount set aside, avoided or recovered together with interest at the rate required to be paid by such Issuing Bank upon the amount required to be repaid by it.

(g)                                  Letter of Credit Fee Charges.  In connection with each Letter of Credit and/or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit, Borrower and the applicable Qualified Borrower each hereby covenants to pay to the Administrative Agent the following fees each payable quarterly in arrears (on the first Business Day of each calendar quarter following the issuance of each Letter of Credit and/or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit):  (1) a fee (in Dollars or the applicable Alternative Currency) for the account of the Lenders, computed daily on the amount of the Letter of Credit or the Alternative Currency Letter of Credit issued and outstanding at a rate per annum equal to the “Banks’ L/C Fee Rate” (as hereinafter defined) and (2) a fee (in Dollars or the applicable Alternative Currency), for the Issuing Bank’s own account, computed daily on the amount of the Letter of Credit and/or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit issued and outstanding at a rate per annum equal to 0.125%.  For purposes of this Agreement, the

62

“Banks’ L/C Fee Rate” shall mean, at any time, a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin for Eurodollar Rate Loans less 0.125% per annum.  It is understood and agreed that the last installment of the fees provided for in this paragraph (g) with respect to any particular Letter of Credit shall be due and payable on the first day of the fiscal quarter following the return, undrawn, or cancellation of such Letter of Credit and/or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit.  In addition, the Borrower shall pay to each Issuing Bank, solely for its own account, the standard charges assessed by such Issuing Bank in connection with the issuance, administration, amendment and payment or cancellation of Letters of Credit and/or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit and such compensation in respect of such Letters of Credit and/or Alternative Currency Letters of Credit for the Borrower’s account as may be agreed upon by the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower and such Issuing Bank from time to time.

(h)                                 Letter of Credit Reporting Requirements.  Each Issuing Bank shall, no later than the tenth (10th) Business Day following the last day of each calendar month, provide to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, separate schedules for Commercial Letters of Credit and/or Alternative Currency Letters of Credit and Standby Letters of Credit and/or Alternative Currency Letters of Credit issued as Letters of Credit and/or Alternative Currency Letters of Credit, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, setting forth the aggregate Letter of Credit Obligations outstanding to it at the end of each month and, to the extent not otherwise provided in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.1(c)(ii), any information requested by the Administrative Agent or the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower relating to the date of issue, account party, amount, expiration date and reference number of each Letter of Credit and/or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit issued by it.

(i)                                     Indemnification; Exoneration.

(i)                                     In addition to all other amounts payable to an Issuing Bank, the Borrower and the applicable Qualified Borrower each, jointly and severally, hereby agrees to defend, indemnify, and save the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank, and each other Lender harmless from and against any and all (exclusive of those based on any theory of liability for special, indirect consequential or punitive damages, unless such special, indirect consequential or punitive damages are asserted by a third party) claims, demands, liabilities, penalties, damages, losses (other than loss of profits), costs, charges and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses but excluding taxes) which the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks, or such other Lender may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of (A) the issuance of any Letter of Credit and/or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit other than as a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Issuing Bank, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, or (B) the failure of the Issuing Bank to honor a drawing under such Letter of Credit and/or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit as a result of any act or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future de jure or de facto government or Governmental Authority.

(ii)                                  As between the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower on the one hand and the Lenders on the other hand, the Borrower and the applicable Qualified Borrower assumes all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of Letters of

63

Credit by, the respective beneficiaries of the Letters of Credit and/or Alternative Currency Letters of Credit.  In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, subject to the provisions of the Letter of Credit Reimbursement Agreements, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the other Lenders shall not be responsible for:  (A) the form, validity, legality, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for and issuance of the Letters of Credit, and/or Alternative Currency Letters of Credit even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged; (B) the validity, legality or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit and/or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (C) failure of the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit and/or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit to duly comply with conditions required in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit and/or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit; (D) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (E) errors in interpretation of technical terms; (F) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under any Letter of Credit and/or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit or of the proceeds thereof; (G) the misapplication by the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit and/or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit and/or Alternative Currency Letter of Credit; and (H) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks or the other Lenders.

(j)                                    Replacement of an Issuing Bank.

(i)                                     An Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank.  The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of an Issuing Bank.  At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 3.1(g).  From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (x) the successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (y) references herein to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to include such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require.  After the replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.

(ii)                                  Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Issuing Bank, any Issuing Bank may resign as an Issuing Bank at any time upon thirty days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Lenders, in which case, such Issuing Bank shall be replaced in accordance with Section 3.1(j)(i) above.

64

3.2                               Obligations Several.  The obligations of the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank, and each other Lender under this Article III are several and not joint, and no Issuing Bank or other Lender shall be responsible for the obligation to issue Letters of Credit and/or Alternative Currency Letters of Credit or participation obligation hereunder, respectively, of any other Issuing Bank or other Lender.

3.3                               Expiration after the Revolving Credit Termination Date.  Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if any Letters of Credit, by their terms, shall mature after the Revolving Credit Termination Date (as the same may be extended), then, on and after the Revolving Credit Termination Date, the provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect with respect to such Letters of Credit, and the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower shall comply with the provisions of Section 3.4.

3.4                               Actions in Respect of Letters of Credit.  (a) If, at any time and from time to time, any Letter of Credit shall have been issued hereunder and the same shall expire on a date after the Revolving Credit Termination Date, then, on the Revolving Credit Termination Date, the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, in same day funds at the Administrative Agent’s office designated in such demand, for deposit in a special cash collateral account (the “Letter of Credit Collateral Account”) to be maintained in the name of the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Lenders) and under its sole dominion and control at such place as shall be designated by the Administrative Agent, an amount equal to the amount of the Letter of Credit Obligations, in the applicable currency, under the Letters of Credit.  Interest shall accrue on the Letter of Credit Collateral Account at a rate equal to the rate on overnight funds.  The Borrower shall also make deposits into the Letter of Credit Collateral Account in accordance with Section 11.2 and Section 14.25(c).

(b)                                 The Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower hereby pledges, assigns and grants to the Administrative Agent, as Administrative Agent for its benefit and the ratable benefit of the Lenders a lien on and a security interest in, the following collateral (the “Letter of Credit Collateral”):

(i)                                     the Letter of Credit Collateral Account, all cash deposited therein and all certificates and instruments, if any, from time to time representing or evidencing the Letter of Credit Collateral Account;

(ii)                                  all notes, certificates of deposit and other instruments from time to time hereafter delivered to or otherwise possessed by the Administrative Agent for or on behalf of the Borrower in substitution for or in respect of any or all of the then existing Letter of Credit Collateral;

(iii)                               all interest, dividends, cash, instruments and other property from time to time received, receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of or in exchange for any or all of the then existing Letter of Credit Collateral; and

(iv)                              to the extent not covered by the above clauses, all proceeds of any or all of the foregoing Letter of Credit Collateral.

65

(c)                                  The lien and security interest granted hereby secures the payment of all obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing hereunder and under any other Loan Document.

(d)                                 The Borrower and the applicable Qualified Borrower hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Lenders to apply, from time to time after funds are deposited in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account and for so long as an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, funds then held in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account to the payment of any amounts, in such order as the Administrative Agent may elect, as shall have become due and payable by the Borrower to the Lenders in respect of the Letters of Credit.

(e)                                  Neither the Borrower nor the applicable Qualified Borrower nor any Person claiming or acting on behalf of or through the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower shall have any right to withdraw any of the funds held in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account.

(f)                                   The Borrower and the applicable Qualified Borrower each agrees that it will not (i) sell or otherwise dispose of any interest in the Letter of Credit Collateral or (ii) create or permit to exist any lien, security interest or other charge or encumbrance upon or with respect to any of the Letter of Credit Collateral, except for the security interest created by this Section 3.4.

(g)                                  If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing:

(i)                                     The Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, without notice to the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower except as required by law and at any time from time to time, charge, set off or otherwise apply all or any part of first, (x) amounts previously drawn on any Letter of Credit that have not been reimbursed by the Borrower and (y) any Letter of Credit Obligations described in clause (ii) of the definition thereof that are then due and payable and second, any other unpaid Obligations then due and payable against the Letter of Credit Collateral Account or any part thereof, in such order as the Administrative Agent shall elect.  The rights of the Administrative Agent under this Section 3.4 are in addition to any rights and remedies which any Lender may have.

(ii)                                  The Administrative Agent may also exercise, in its sole discretion, in respect of the Letter of Credit Collateral Account, in addition to the other rights and remedies provided herein or otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party upon default under the Uniform Commercial Code in effect in the State of New York at that time.

(iii)                               The Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Letter of Credit Collateral if the Letter of Credit Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the Administrative Agent accords its own property, it being understood that, assuming such treatment, the Administrative Agent shall not have any responsibility or liability with respect thereto.

(iv)                              At such time as all Events of Default have been cured or waived in writing, all fees and expenses, if any, owing to the Lenders paid in full, and all Letters of Credit returned to the Issuing Banks, all amounts remaining in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account shall be promptly returned to the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower.  Absent such cure or written waiver, any surplus of the funds held in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account and remaining after payment in full of all of the Obligations of the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower hereunder and under any other Loan Document after the Revolving Credit Termination Date shall be paid promptly to the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus.

3.5                               Applicability of ISP and UCP.  Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the Issuing Bank and the Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued, (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.

3.6                               Existing Letters of Credit.  It is hereby acknowledged and agreed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and all the Lenders party hereto that on the Closing Date, the letters of credit previously issued by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. or Bank of America, N.A. as “Issuing Bank” under the Existing Credit Agreement, and more particularly set forth on Schedule 3.6 hereto, shall be transferred to this Agreement and shall be deemed to be Letters of Credit hereunder.

ARTICLE IV

PAYMENTS AND PREPAYMENTS

4.1                               Prepayments; Reductions in Revolving Credit Commitments.

(a)                                 Voluntary Prepayments.  The Borrower or any Qualified Borrower may, at any time and from time to time, prepay the Loans in part or in their entirety, subject to the following limitations. The Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower shall give at least one (1) Business Day’s prior written notice, in the case of Base Rate Loans or Money Market Loans bearing interest at the Base Rate pursuant to Section 5.2, and at least three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice, in the case of Eurodollar Rate Loans, to the Administrative Agent (which the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each Lender) of any prepayment in the entirety to be made prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, which notice of prepayment shall specify the date (which shall be a Business Day) of prepayment. When notice of prepayment is delivered as provided herein, the outstanding principal amount of the Loans on the prepayment date specified in the notice shall become due and payable on such prepayment date. Each voluntary partial prepayment of the Loans shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 (or the remaining balance of the Commitments, if less), except in the case of Swingline Loans, which shall be in the minimum amount of $100,000, and integral multiples of $100,000. Eurodollar Rate Loans and Money Market Loans may be prepaid in part or in their entirety only upon payment of the amounts described in Section 5.2(f).

67

(b)                                 Voluntary Reductions In Revolving Credit Commitments.  The Borrower may, upon at least three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent (which the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each Lender), at any time and from time to time, terminate in whole or permanently reduce in part the Revolving Credit Commitments and/or the Alternative Currency Commitments, provided that the Borrower shall have made whatever payment may be required to reduce the Revolving Credit Obligations to an amount less than or equal to the Revolving Credit Commitments as reduced or terminated, which amount shall become due and payable on the date specified in such notice.  Any partial reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments and/or the Alternative Currency Commitments shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $25,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount, and shall reduce the Revolving Credit Commitment and/or the Alternative Currency Commitment of each Lender proportionately in accordance with its Pro Rata Share.  Any notice of termination or reduction given to the Administrative Agent under this Section 4.1(b) shall specify the date (which shall be a Business Day) of such termination or reduction and, with respect to a partial reduction, the aggregate principal amount thereof.

(c)                                  No Penalty.  The prepayments and payments in respect of reductions and terminations described in clauses (a) and (b) of this Section 4.1 may be made without premium or penalty (except as provided in Section 5.2(f)).

(d)                                 Mandatory Prepayments of Alternative Currency Loans.  The Administrative Agent shall calculate the Dollar Equivalent Amount of all Loans denominated in the Alternative Currency at the time of each Borrowing thereof and on the last Business Day of each month during each Interest Period longer than one month in duration.  If at any such time (y) the Dollar Equivalent Amount of the sum of (i) all outstanding Loans denominated in the Alternative Currency, and (ii) the outstanding Dollar Equivalent Amount of the Letter of Credit Obligations for Alternative Currency Letters of Credit, so determined by the Administrative Agent, in the aggregate, exceeds the Alternative Currency Sublimit, Borrower shall repay all or a portion of such Loans, otherwise in accordance with the applicable terms of this Agreement, in such amount so that, following the making of such payment, the Dollar Equivalent Amount outstanding of such Loans and Letter of Credit Obligations does not exceed the Alternative Currency Sublimit, or (z) the Dollar Equivalent Amount of the sum of (i) all outstanding Loans and (ii) the outstanding Dollar Equivalent Amount of the Letter of Credit Obligations so determined by the Administrative Agent, in the aggregate, exceeds the Maximum Revolving Credit Amount, Borrower shall, in each case, repay all or a portion of the Loans, otherwise in accordance with the applicable terms of this Agreement, in such amount so that, following the making of such payment, the Dollar Equivalent Amount outstanding of all Loans and Letter of Credit Obligations does not exceed the Maximum Revolving Credit Amount.

4.2                               Payments.

(a)                                 Manner and Time of Payment.  All payments of principal of and interest on the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations and other Obligations (including, without limitation, fees and expenses) which are payable to the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers or any other Lender shall be made without condition or reservation of right, in immediately available funds, delivered to the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of Reimbursement Obligations, to the pertinent Arranger) not later than 12:00 noon (New York time or local time to

68

the Principal Financial Center of the applicable currency, in the case of an Alternative Currency) on the date and at the place due, to such account of the Administrative Agent (or such Arranger) as it may designate, for the account of the Administrative Agent, an Arranger, or such other Lender, as the case may be; and funds received by the Administrative Agent (or such Arranger), including, without limitation, funds in respect of any Loans to be made on that date, not later than 12:00 noon (New York time or local time to the Principal Financial Center of the applicable currency, in the case of an Alternative Currency) on any given Business Day shall be credited against payment to be made that day and funds received by the Administrative Agent (or such Arranger) after that time shall be deemed to have been paid on the next succeeding Business Day.  All payments shall be in Dollars except for payments of principal, interest and fees on Alternative Currency Loans and Reimbursement Obligations with respect to Alternative Currency Letters of Credit, which shall be in the applicable Alternative Currency thereof. Payments actually received by the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, or any of them, shall be paid to them by the Administrative Agent promptly after receipt thereof, in immediately available funds.

(b)                                 Apportionment of Payments.  (i)  Subject to the provisions of Section 4.2(b)(v), all payments of principal and interest in respect of outstanding Loans, all payments in respect of Reimbursement Obligations, all payments of fees and all other payments in respect of any other Obligations, shall be allocated among such of the Lenders as are entitled thereto, in proportion to their respective Pro Rata Shares or otherwise as provided herein.  Subject to the provisions of Section 4.2(b)(ii), all such payments and any other amounts received by the Administrative Agent from or for the benefit of the Borrower or any Qualified Borrower shall be applied in the following order:

(A)                               to pay principal of and interest on any portion of the Loans which the Administrative Agent may have advanced on behalf of any Lender other than itself for which the Administrative Agent has not then been reimbursed by such Lender or the Borrower or such Qualified Borrower,

(B)                               to pay all other Obligations then due and payable and

(C)                               as the Borrower so designates.

Unless otherwise designated by the Borrower, all principal payments in respect of Committed Loans shall be applied first, to repay outstanding Base Rate Loans, and then to repay outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loans, with those Eurodollar Rate Loans which have earlier expiring Interest Periods being repaid prior to those which have later expiring Interest Periods.

(ii)                                  After the occurrence of an Event of Default and while the same is continuing, the Administrative Agent shall apply all payments in respect of any Obligations and any amounts received as a result of the exercise of remedies pursuant to Sections 11.12 and 14.5, in the following order:

(A)                               first, to pay principal of and interest on any portion of the Loans which the Administrative Agent may have advanced on behalf of any

69

Lender other than itself for which the Administrative Agent has not then been reimbursed by such Lender or the Borrower or any Qualified Borrower;

(B)                               second, to pay Obligations in respect of any fees, expense reimbursements or indemnities then due to the Administrative Agent;

(C)                               third, to pay principal of and interest on Letter of Credit Obligations (or, to the extent such Obligations are contingent, deposited with the Administrative Agent to provide cash collateral in respect of such Obligations);

(D)                               fourth, to pay Obligations in respect of any fees, expense reimbursements or indemnities then due to the Lenders and the Co-Agents;

(E)                                fifth, to pay interest due in respect of Loans;

(F)                                 sixth, to the ratable payment or prepayment of principal outstanding on Loans; and

(G)                               seventh, to the ratable payment of all other Obligations.

The order of priority set forth in this Section 4.2(b)(ii) and the related provisions of this Agreement are set forth solely to determine the rights and priorities of the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, the other Lenders and other Holders as among themselves.  The order of priority set forth in clauses (C) through (G) of this Section 4.2(b)(ii) may at any time and from time to time be changed by the Requisite Lenders without necessity of notice to or consent of or approval by the Borrower, any Holder which is not a Lender, or any other Person.  The order of priority set forth in clauses (A) and (B) of this Section 4.2(b)(ii) may be changed only with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent.

(iii)                               The Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion subject only to the terms of this Section 4.2(b)(iii), may pay from the proceeds of Loans made to the Borrower hereunder, whether made following a request by the Borrower or any Qualified Borrower pursuant to Sections 2.1 or 2.2 or a deemed request as provided in this Section 4.2(b)(iii), all amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder, including, without limitation, amounts payable with respect to payments of principal, interest, Reimbursement Obligations and fees and all reimbursements for expenses pursuant to Section 14.2.  The Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes the Lenders to make Loans, which Loans shall be Base Rate Loans, in each case, upon notice from the Administrative Agent as described in the following sentence for the purpose of paying principal, interest, Reimbursement Obligations and fees due from the Borrower, reimbursing expenses pursuant to Section 14.2 and paying any and all other amounts due and payable by the Borrower hereunder or under the Notes, and agrees that all such Loans so made shall be deemed to have been requested by it pursuant to Section 2.1 as of the date of the aforementioned notice.  The Administrative Agent shall request Loans on behalf of the Borrower as described in the preceding sentence by notifying the Lenders by facsimile transmission or other similar form of transmission (which notice the Administrative Agent shall thereafter promptly transmit to the Borrower), of the amount and Funding Date of the proposed Borrowing and that such Borrowing is being requested on the

70

Borrower’s behalf pursuant to this Section 4.2(b)(iii).  On the proposed Funding Date, the Lenders shall make the requested Loans in accordance with the procedures and subject to the conditions specified in Section 2.1.

(iv)                              Subject to Section 4.2(b)(v), the Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to each Arranger and each other Lender at its primary address set forth on the appropriate signature page hereof or the signature page to the Assignment and Acceptance by which it became a Lender, or at such other address as a Lender or other Holder may request in writing, such funds as such Person may be entitled to receive, subject to the provisions of Article XII; provided that the Administrative Agent shall under no circumstances be bound to inquire into or determine the validity, scope or priority of any interest or entitlement of any Holder and may suspend all payments or seek appropriate relief (including, without limitation, instructions from the Requisite Lenders or an action in the nature of interpleader) in the event of any doubt or dispute as to any apportionment or distribution contemplated hereby.

(v)                                 In the event that any Lender fails to fund its Pro Rata Share of any Loan requested by the Borrower or any Qualified Borrower which such Lender is obligated to fund under the terms of this Agreement (the funded portion of such Loan being hereinafter referred to as a “Non Pro Rata Loan”), until the earlier of such Defaulting Lender’s cure of such failure and the termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments, the proceeds of all amounts thereafter repaid to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower or any Qualified Borrower and otherwise required to be applied to such Defaulting Lender’s share of all other Obligations pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be advanced to the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower by the Administrative Agent on behalf of such Defaulting Lender to cure, in full or in part, such failure by such Lender, but shall nevertheless be deemed to have been paid to such Defaulting Lender in satisfaction of such other Obligations.  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary:

(A)                               the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.2(b)(v) shall apply only with respect to the proceeds of payments of Obligations and shall not affect the conversion or continuation of Loans pursuant to Section 5.1(c);

(B)                               a Lender shall be deemed to have cured its failure to fund its Pro Rata Share of any Loan at such time as an amount equal to such Lender’s original Pro Rata Share of the requested principal portion of such Loan is fully funded to the Borrower, whether made by such Lender itself or by operation of the terms of this Section 4.2(b)(v), and whether or not the Non Pro Rata Loan with respect thereto has been repaid, converted or continued;

(C)                               amounts advanced to the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower to cure, in full or in part, any such Lender’s failure to fund its Pro Rata Share of any Loan (“Cure Loans”) shall bear interest at the Base Rate in effect from time to time, and for all other purposes of this Agreement shall be treated as if they were Base Rate Loans; and

71

(D)                               regardless of whether or not an Event of Default has occurred or is continuing, and notwithstanding the instructions of the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower as to its desired application, all repayments of principal which, in accordance with the other terms of this Section 4.2, would be applied to the outstanding Base Rate Loans shall be applied first, ratably to all Base Rate Loans constituting Non Pro Rata Loans, second, ratably to Base Rate Loans other than those constituting Non Pro Rata Loans or Cure Loans and, third, ratably to Base Rate Loans constituting Cure Loans.

(c)                                  Payments on Non-Business Days.  Whenever any payment to be made by the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower hereunder or under the Notes is stated to be due on a day which is not a Business Day, the payment shall instead be due on the next succeeding Business Day (or, as set forth in Section 5.2(b)(iii), the next preceding Business Day).

4.3                               Promise to Repay; Evidence of Indebtedness.

(a)                                 Promise to Repay.  The Borrower and each Qualified Borrower hereby promise to pay when due the principal amount of each Loan which is made to it, and further agree to pay all unpaid interest accrued thereon, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Notes.  Unless a Lender elects not to receive any such promissory note, the Borrower and/or any Qualified Borrower shall execute and deliver to each Lender on the Closing Date (or in the case of any Qualified Borrower, at such time as it becomes a Qualified Borrower hereunder), a promissory note, in form and substance acceptable to the Administrative Agent and such Lender, evidencing the Loans and thereafter shall execute and deliver such other promissory notes as are necessary to evidence the Loans owing to the Lenders after giving effect to any assignment thereof pursuant to Section 14.1 or any increase in such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitments pursuant to Section 2.1(d), all in form and substance acceptable to the Administrative Agent, the applicable Lenders and the parties to such assignment (all such promissory notes and all amendments thereto, replacements thereof and substitutions therefor being collectively referred to as the “Notes”; and “Note” means any one of the Notes).

(b)                                 Loan Account.  Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts (a “Loan Account”) evidencing the Indebtedness of the Borrower and each Qualified Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan owing to such Lender from time to time, including the amount of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder and under the Notes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure by any Lender to maintain a Loan Account shall in no way affect the Borrower’s or the applicable Qualified Borrower’s obligations hereunder, including, without limitation, the obligation to repay the Obligations.

(c)                                  Control Account.  The Register maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 14.1(c) shall include a control account, and a subsidiary account for each Lender, in which accounts (taken together) shall be recorded (i) the date and amount of each Borrowing made hereunder, the type of Loan comprising such Borrowing and any Eurodollar Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the effective date and amount of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it and the parties thereto, (iii) the amount of any

72

principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder or under the Notes and (iv) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower hereunder and each Lender’s share thereof.

(d)                                 Entries Binding.  The entries made in the Register and each Loan Account shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(e)                                  No Recourse to Limited Partners or General Partner.  Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, it is expressly understood and agreed that nothing herein or in the Notes shall be construed as creating any liability on any Limited Partner, any General Partner, or any partner, member, manager, officer, shareholder or director of any Limited Partner or any General Partner, to pay any of the Obligations other than liability arising from or in connection with (i) fraud or (ii) the misappropriation or misapplication of proceeds of the Loans (in which case such liability shall extend to the Person(s) committing such fraud, misappropriation or misapplication, but not to any other Person described above); but nothing contained in this Section 4.3(e) shall be construed to prevent the exercise of any remedy allowed to the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, the Co-Agents or the Lenders by law or by the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents which does not relate to or result in such an obligation by any Limited Partner or any General Partner (or any partner, member, manager, officer, shareholder or director of any Limited Partner or any General Partner) to pay money.

ARTICLE V

INTEREST AND FEES

5.1                               Interest on the Loans and other Obligations.

(a)                                 Rate of Interest.  All Loans and the outstanding principal balance of all other Obligations shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date such Loans are made and such other Obligations are due and payable until paid in full, except as otherwise provided in Section 5.1(d), as follows:

(i)                                     If a Base Rate Loan or such other Obligation, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (A) the Base Rate, as in effect from time to time as interest accrues, plus (B) the then Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans;

(ii)                                  If a Eurodollar Rate Loan, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (A) the Eurodollar Rate determined for the applicable Eurodollar Interest Period, plus (B) the then Applicable Margin for Eurodollar Rate Loans;

(iii)                               If a Eurodollar Money Market Loan, at a rate per annum equal to either (A) the sum of (1) the Eurodollar Rate determined for the applicable Eurodollar Interest Period (determined as if the related Money Market Borrowing were a Committed Eurodollar Rate Borrowing) plus (or minus) (2) the Money Market Margin quoted by the Lender making such Money Market Loan in accordance with Section 2.2 or (B) the Money Market Rate, as applicable; and

73

(iv)                              If a Swingline Loan, as provided in Section 2.9(c).

The applicable basis for determining the rate of interest on the Loans shall be selected by the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower at the time a Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion/Continuation is delivered by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent; provided, however, neither the Borrower nor any Qualified Borrower may select the Eurodollar Rate as the applicable basis for determining the rate of interest on such a Loan if at the time of such selection an Event of Default or a Potential Event of Default would occur or has occurred and is continuing and further provided that, from and after the occurrence of an Event of Default or a Potential Event of Default, each Eurodollar Rate Loan then outstanding may, at the Administrative Agent’s option, convert to a Base Rate Loan.  If on any day any Loan is outstanding with respect to which notice has not been timely delivered to the Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement specifying the basis for determining the rate of interest on that day, then for that day interest on that Loan shall be determined by reference to the Base Rate.

(b)                                 Interest Payments.  (i) Interest accrued on each Committed Loan shall be calculated on the last day of each calendar month and shall be payable in arrears (A) in the case of a Base Rate Loan, on the first day of each calendar month, commencing on the first such day following the making of such Committed Loan, (B) with respect to any Eurodollar Rate Loan, the last day of the Interest Period applicable to the Borrowing of which such Loan is a part and, in the case of a Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans with an Interest Period of more than three months’ duration, each day prior to the last day of such Interest Period that occurs at intervals of three months’ duration after the first day of such Interest Period, and (C) in the case of any Committed Loan, if not theretofore paid in full, on the maturity date (whether by acceleration or otherwise) of such Committed Loan.

(ii)                                  Interest accrued on each Money Market Loan shall be calculated on the last day of each calendar month during the Interest Period applicable thereto (or, if such Interest Period is for a period one month or less, on the last day of such Interest Period) and shall be payable in arrears (A) if such Money Market Loan has an Interest Period longer than one month (1) on the first day of each calendar month, commencing on the first such day following the making of such Money Market Loan, and (2) if not theretofore paid in full, at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) of such Money Market Loan; and (B) if such Money Market Loan has an Interest Period of one month or less, at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) of such Money Market Loan.

(iii)                               Interest accrued on the principal balance of all other Obligations shall be calculated on the last day of each calendar month and shall be payable in arrears (A) on the first day of each calendar month, commencing on the first such day following the incurrence of such Obligation, (B) upon repayment thereof in full or in part, and (C) if not theretofore paid in full, at the time such other Obligation becomes due and payable (whether by acceleration or otherwise).

(c)                                  Conversion or Continuation.  (i) The Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower shall have the option (A) to convert at any time all or any part of outstanding Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Rate Loans; (B) to convert all or any part of outstanding Eurodollar

74

Rate Loans having Eurodollar Interest Periods which expire on the same date to Base Rate Loans, on such expiration date; and (C) to continue all or any part of outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loans having Eurodollar Interest Periods which expire on the same date as Eurodollar Rate Loans, and the succeeding Eurodollar Interest Period of such continued Loans shall commence on such expiration date; provided, however, no such outstanding Loan may be continued as, or be converted into, a Eurodollar Rate Loan (i) if the continuation of, or the conversion into, would violate any of the provisions of Section 5.2 or (ii) if an Event of Default or a Potential Event of Default would occur or has occurred and is continuing.  Any conversion into or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans under this Section 5.1(c) shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 and in integral multiples of $100,000 in excess of that amount, except in the case of a conversion into or a continuation of an entire Borrowing of Non Pro Rata Loans.

(ii)                                  To convert or continue a Loan under Section 5.1(c)(i), the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower shall deliver a Notice of Conversion/Continuation to the Administrative Agent no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) at least three (3) Business Days (in the case of a Dollar denominated Loan), or four (4) Business Days (in the case of an Alternative Currency Loan) in advance of the proposed conversion/continuation date.  A Notice of Conversion/Continuation shall specify (A) the proposed conversion/continuation date (which shall be a Business Day), (B) the principal amount of the Loan to be converted/continued, (C) whether such Loan shall be converted and/or continued, and (D) in the case of a conversion to, or continuation of, a Eurodollar Rate Loan, the requested Eurodollar Interest Period.  In lieu of delivering a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower may give the Administrative Agent telephonic notice of any proposed conversion/continuation by the time required under this Section 5.1(c)(ii), if the Borrower confirms such notice by delivery of the Notice of Conversion/Continuation to the Administrative Agent by facsimile transmission promptly, but in no event later than 3:00 p.m. (New York time) on the same day.  Promptly after receipt of a Notice of Conversion/Continuation under this Section 5.1(c)(ii) (or telephonic notice in lieu thereof), the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender by facsimile transmission, or other similar form of transmission, of the proposed conversion/continuation.  Any Notice of Conversion/Continuation for conversion to, or continuation of, a Loan (or telephonic notice in lieu thereof) given pursuant to this Section 5.1(c)(ii) shall be irrevocable, and the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower shall be bound to convert or continue in accordance therewith.  In the event no Notice of Conversion/Continuation is delivered as and when specified in this Section 5.1(c)(ii) with respect to outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loans, upon the expiration of the Interest Period applicable thereto, such Loans shall automatically be continued as Eurodollar Rate Loans with a Eurodollar Interest Period of thirty (30) days; provided, however, no such outstanding Loan may be continued as, or be converted into, a Eurodollar Rate Loan (i) if the continuation of, or the conversion into, would violate any of the provisions of Section 5.2 or (ii) if an Event of Default or a Potential Event of Default would occur or has occurred and is continuing.

(d)                                 Default Interest.  Notwithstanding the rates of interest specified in Section 5.1(a) or elsewhere in this Agreement, effective immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, and for as long thereafter as such Event of Default shall be continuing, the principal balance of all Loans and other Obligations shall bear interest at a rate equal to the sum

75

of (A) the Base Rate, as in effect from time to time as interest accrues, plus (B) two percent (2.0%) per annum.

(e)                                  Computation of Interest.  Interest on all Obligations shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which interest accrues and a year of 360 days (or 365/366 days in the case of interest computed by reference to clause (i) of the definition of Base Rate, the AUD Bank Bill Reference Rate, the CDOR Rate or Eurodollar Rate Loans denominated in U.K. Pounds Sterling).  In computing interest on any Loan, the date of the making of the Loan or the first day of a Eurodollar Interest Period, as the case may be, shall be included and the date of payment or the expiration date of a Eurodollar Interest Period, as the case may be, shall be excluded; provided, however, if a Loan is repaid on the same day on which it is made, one (1) day’s interest shall be paid on such Loan.

(f)                                   Eurodollar Rate Information.  Upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower from time to time, the Administrative Agent shall promptly provide to the Borrower such information with respect to the applicable Eurodollar Rate as may be so requested.

5.2                               Special Provisions Governing Eurodollar Rate Loans and Money Market Loans.

(a)                                 Amount of Eurodollar Rate Loans.  Each Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be in a minimum principal amount of $1,500,000 or, in the case of an Alternative Currency Loan, the Dollar Equivalent Amount equal to $1,500,000.

(b)                                 Determination of Eurodollar Interest Period.  By giving notice as set forth in Section 2.1(b) (with respect to a Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans), Section 2.2 (with respect to a Borrowing of Money Market Loans), or Section 5.1(c) (with respect to a conversion into or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans), the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower shall have the option, subject to the other provisions of this Section 5.2, to select an interest period (each, an “Interest Period”) to apply to the Loans described in such notice, subject to the following provisions:

(i)                                     Subject to availability, the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower may only select, as to a particular Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans, an Interest Period (each, a “Eurodollar Interest Period”) of one, two, three or six months in duration (or, with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and if available to all Lenders, twelve months), or for a period of 7 days (provided, however, that in no event shall there be more than three (3) Eurodollar Interest Periods of 7 days outstanding at any time);

(ii)                                  The Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower may only select, as to a particular Borrowing of Eurodollar Money Market Loans, a Eurodollar Interest Period of one, two, or three months in duration;

(iii)                               In the case of immediately successive Eurodollar Interest Periods applicable to a Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans, each successive Eurodollar Interest

76

Period shall commence on the day on which the next preceding Eurodollar Interest Period expires;

(iv)                              If any Eurodollar Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day which is not a Business Day, such Eurodollar Interest Period shall be extended to expire on the next succeeding Business Day if the next succeeding Business Day occurs in the same calendar month, and if there will be no succeeding Business Day in such calendar month, the Eurodollar Interest Period shall expire on the immediately preceding Business Day;

(v)                                 Neither the Borrower nor the applicable Qualified Borrower may select an Interest Period as to any Loan if such Interest Period terminates later than the Revolving Credit Termination Date;

(vi)                              Neither the Borrower nor the applicable Qualified Borrower may select an Interest Period with respect to any portion of principal of a Loan which extends beyond a date on which the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower is required to make a scheduled payment of such portion of principal; and

(vii)                           There shall be no more than twelve (12) Interest Periods in effect at any one time with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans.

(c)                                  Determination of Eurodollar Interest Rate.  As soon as practicable on the second Business Day prior to the first day of each Eurodollar Interest Period (the “Eurodollar Interest Rate Determination Date”), the Administrative Agent shall determine (pursuant to the procedures set forth in the definition of “Eurodollar Rate”) the interest rate which shall apply to the Eurodollar Rate Loans or Eurodollar Money Market Loans for which an interest rate is then being determined for the applicable Eurodollar Interest Period and shall promptly give notice thereof (in writing or by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Borrower, the applicable Qualified Borrower(s) and to each Lender.  The Administrative Agent’s determination shall be presumed to be correct, absent manifest error, and shall be binding upon the Borrower, the applicable Qualified Borrower and each Lender.

(d)                                 Market Disruption and Alternate Rate of Interest.

(i)                                     If at the time that the Administrative Agent shall seek to determine the relevant Screen Rate on the Quotation Day for any Interest Period for a Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans the applicable Screen Rate shall not be available for such Interest Period and/or for the applicable currency with respect to such Borrowing for any reason and the Administrative Agent shall determine that it is not possible to determine the Interpolated Rate (which conclusion shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error), then the applicable Reference Bank Rate shall be the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period for such Borrowing; provided,  however,  that if less than two Reference Banks shall supply a rate to the Administrative Agent for purposes of determining the Eurodollar Rate for such Borrowing, (i) if such Borrowing shall be requested in Dollars, then such Borrowing shall be made as a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans at the Base Rate and (ii) if such Borrowing shall be requested in any Alternative Currency, the Eurodollar

77

Rate shall be equal to the cost to each Lender to fund its pro rata share of such Borrowing (from whatever source and using whatever methodologies as such Lender may select in its reasonable discretion); such rate, the “CF Rate”).

(ii)                                  If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans:

(A)                               the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Base Eurocurrency Rate or the Eurodollar Rate, as applicable, for a Loan in the applicable currency or for the applicable Interest Period; or

(B)                               the Administrative Agent is advised by the Requisite Lenders (or, in the case of a Eurodollar Money Market Loan, the Lender that is required to make such Loan) that the Base Eurocurrency Rate or the Eurodollar Rate, as applicable, for a Loan in the applicable currency or for the applicable Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period,

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders by telephone promptly followed in writing or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (1) any Notice of Conversion/Continuation that requests the conversion of any Eurodollar Rate Loans to, or continuation of any Eurodollar Rate Loans in the applicable currency or for the applicable Interest Period, as the case may be, shall be ineffective, (2)  if such Borrowing is requested in Dollars, such Borrowing shall be made as a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans and (3) if such Borrowing is requested in any Alternative Currency, then the Eurodollar Rate for such Borrowing shall be at the CF Rate (as defined in clause (i) above); provided, further that if the circumstances giving rise to such notice do not affect all the Lenders, then requests by the Borrower for Eurodollar Money Market Loans may be made to Lenders that are not affected thereby.

(e)                                  Illegality.  (i)  If at any time any Lender determines (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties) that the making, converting, maintaining or continuation of any Eurodollar Rate Loan or Money Market Loan has become unlawful or impermissible by compliance by that Lender with any law, governmental rule, regulation or order of any Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law and whether or not failure to comply therewith would be unlawful or would result in costs or penalties), then, and in any such event, such Lender may give notice of that determination, in writing, to the Borrower, the applicable Qualified Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit the notice to each other Lender.

(ii)                                  When notice is given by a Lender under Section 5.2(e)(i), (A) the Borrower’s or the applicable Qualified Borrower’s right to request from such Lender and

78

such Lender’s obligation, if any, to make Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be immediately suspended, and such Lender shall make a Base Rate Loan as part of any requested Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans and (B) if the affected Eurodollar Rate Loans, or Eurodollar Money Market Loans are then outstanding, the Borrower or such Qualified Borrower shall immediately, or if permitted by applicable law, no later than the date permitted thereby, upon at least one (1) Business Day’s prior written notice to the Administrative Agent and the affected Lender, convert each such Loan into a Base Rate Loan.

(iii)                               If at any time after a Lender gives notice under Section 5.2(e)(i) such Lender determines that it may lawfully make Eurodollar Rate Loans, such Lender shall promptly give notice of that determination, in writing, to the Borrower, the applicable Qualified Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit the notice to each other Lender.  The Borrower’s and such Qualified Borrower’s right to request, and such Lender’s obligation, if any, to make Eurodollar Rate Loans shall thereupon be restored.

(iv)                              A Lender may at its option make any Loan or issue or extend any Letter of Credit (a “Credit Extension”) to the Borrower or any Qualified Borrower by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender (any “Lending Office”) to make such Credit Extension; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower or any Qualified Borrower to repay such Credit Extension in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; provided, however, if the Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for the Lender or its applicable Lending Office to issue, make, maintain, fund or charge interest with respect to any Credit Extension to any Foreign Qualified Borrower then, on notice thereof by the Lender to the Borrower, and until such notice by the Lender is revoked, any obligation of the Lender or its Lending Office to issue, make, maintain, fund or charge interest with respect to any such Credit Extension shall be suspended.  Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower shall take all reasonable actions requested by the Lender to mitigate or avoid such illegality.

(f)                                   Compensation.  In addition to all amounts required to be paid by the Borrower or the applicable Qualified Borrower pursuant to Section 5.1 and Article XIII, the Borrower and the applicable Qualified Borrower shall compensate each Lender, upon demand, for all losses, expenses to third parties and liabilities (including, without limitation, any loss or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund or maintain such Lender’s Eurodollar Rate Loans and/or Money Market Loans to the Borrower or such Qualified Borrower but excluding any loss of Applicable Margin on the relevant Loans, any losses or expenses incurred as the result of such Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction) and any administrative fees incurred in effecting such liquidation or reemployment) which that Lender may sustain (i) if for any reason a Borrowing, conversion into or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans and/or Eurodollar Money Market Loans does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion/Continuation given by the Borrower or any applicable Qualified Borrower or in a telephonic request by it for borrowing or conversion/ continuation or a successive Eurodollar

79

Interest Period does not commence after notice therefor is given pursuant to Section 5.1(c), including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 5.2(d), (ii) if for any reason any Eurodollar Rate Loan or Money Market Loan is prepaid on a date which is not the last day of the applicable Interest Period, (iii) as a consequence of a required conversion of a Eurodollar Rate Loan or Money Market Loan to a Base Rate Loan as a result of any of the events indicated in Section 5.2(d), (iv) as a consequence of any failure by the Borrower or any applicable Qualified Borrower to repay a Eurodollar Rate Loan or Money Market Loan when required by the terms of this Agreement, or (v) as a consequence of an assignment requested by the Borrower under Section 13.4.  The Lender making demand for such compensation shall deliver to the Borrower concurrently with such demand a written statement in reasonable detail as to such losses, expenses and liabilities, and this statement shall be conclusive as to the amount of compensation due to that Lender, absent manifest error.

(g)                                  Booking of Eurodollar Rate Loans and Money Market Loans.  Any Lender may make, carry or transfer Eurodollar Rate Loans and Money Market Loans at, to, or for the account of, its Eurodollar Lending Office or Eurodollar Affiliate or its other offices or Affiliates.  No Lender shall be entitled, however, to receive any greater amount under Sections 4.2 or 5.2(f) or Article XIII as a result of the transfer of any such Eurodollar Rate Loan or Money Market Loan to any office (other than such Eurodollar Lending Office) or any Affiliate (other than such Eurodollar Affiliate) than such Lender would have been entitled to receive immediately prior thereto, unless (i) the transfer occurred at a time when circumstances giving rise to the claim for such greater amount did not exist and (ii) such claim would have arisen even if such transfer had not occurred.

(h)                                 Affiliates Not Obligated.  No Eurodollar Affiliate or other Affiliate of any Lender shall be deemed a party to this Agreement or shall have any liability or obligation under this Agreement.

(i)                                     Adjusted Eurodollar Rate.  Any failure by any Lender to take into account the Eurodollar Reserve Percentage when calculating interest due on Eurodollar Rate Loans or Money Market Loans shall not constitute, whether by course of dealing or otherwise, a waiver by such Lender of its right to collect such amount for any future period.

5.3                               Fees.

(a)                                 Facility Fee.  The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders based on their respective Pro Rata Shares, a fee (the “Facility Fee”), accruing at a per annum rate equal to the then applicable Facility Fee Percentage on the Maximum Revolving Credit Amount and commencing on the Closing Date, such fee being payable quarterly, in arrears, commencing on the first day of the fiscal quarter next succeeding the Closing Date and on the first day of each fiscal quarter thereafter and on the Revolving Credit Termination Date.

(b)                                 Calculation and Payment of Fees.  All fees shall be calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a 360-day year.  All fees shall be payable in addition to, and not in lieu of, interest, compensation, expense reimbursements, indemnification and other Obligations.  Fees shall be payable to the Administrative Agent at its office in New York, New

80

York in immediately available funds.  All fees shall be fully earned and nonrefundable when paid.  All fees due to any Arranger or any other Lender, including, without limitation, those referred to in this Section 5.3, shall bear interest, if not paid when due, at the interest rate specified in Section 5.1(d) and shall constitute Obligations.
