Each of TW NY and TWE is a subsidiary of the Company. Pursuant to the Indenture, each of TW NY and TWE, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, has agreed to fully, irrevocably and unconditionally guarantee (together, the “Guarantees” and, together with the Debt Securities, the “Securities”), to each holder of Debt Securities and to the Trustee, (i) the full and punctual payment of principal of and interest on the Debt Securities when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, and all other monetary obligations of the Company under the Indenture and the Debt Securities and (ii) the full and punctual performance within applicable grace periods of all other obligations of the Company under the Indenture and the Debt Securities. If the firm or firms listed in Schedule II hereto include only the firm or firms listed in Schedule I hereto, then the terms “Underwriters” and “Representatives”, as used herein, shall each be deemed to refer to such firm or firms.

All references in this Agreement to the Registration Statement, the Base Prospectus, any Preliminary Final Prospectus or the Final Prospectus shall be deemed as

of the relevant time and date to refer to and include the documents incorporated by reference therein pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3; all references in this Agreement to financial statements and schedules and other information that is “contained”, “included”, “stated” or “set forth” in the Registration Statement, the Base Prospectus, any Preliminary Final Prospectus or the Final Prospectus (and all other references of like import) shall be deemed to mean and include all such financial statements and schedules and other information that are or are deemed to be incorporated by reference from time to time in the Registration Statement, the Base Prospectus, any Preliminary Final Prospectus or the Final Prospectus, as the case may be; and all references in this Agreement to amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement, the Base Prospectus, any Preliminary Final Prospectus or the Final Prospectus shall be deemed to mean and include any document filed under the Exchange Act after the Effective Date of the Registration Statement or the issue date of the Base Prospectus, any Preliminary Final Prospectus or the Final Prospectus, as the case may be, that is or is deemed to be incorporated therein by reference.

1. Representations and Warranties. Each of the Company, TW NY and TWE represents and warrants to, and agrees with, each Underwriter as set forth below in this Section 1.

(a) The Company and the Guarantors meet the requirements for the use of Form S-3 under the Act, and have filed with the Commission an automatic shelf registration statement as defined in Rule 405 (the file number of which is set forth in Schedule I hereto) on Form S-3, including a base prospectus, for registration under the Act of the offering and sale of the Securities. Such Registration Statement, including any amendments thereto filed prior to the Execution Time, became effective upon filing not more than three years prior to the Execution Time. No stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued under the Act and no proceedings for that purpose have been instituted or are pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, are contemplated or threatened by the Commission, and any request on the part of the Commission for additional information has been complied with. The Company has not received from the Commission any notice pursuant to Rule 401(g)(2) of the Act objecting to use of the automatic shelf registration statement form. The Company and the Guarantors may have filed with the Commission, as part of an amendment to the Registration Statement or pursuant to Rule 424(b), one or more Preliminary Final Prospectuses, each of which has previously been furnished to you.

(d) (i) At the time of filing the Registration Statement, (ii) at the time of the most recent amendment thereto for the purposes of complying with Section 10(a)(3) of the Act (whether such amendment was by post-effective amendment, incorporated reports filed pursuant to Sections 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act or form of prospectus), (iii) at the time the Company or any person

acting on its behalf (within the meaning, for this clause only, of Rule 163(c)) made any offer relating to the Securities in reliance on the exemption in Rule 163 and (iv) at the Execution Time, the Company was or is (as the case may be) a “well-known seasoned issuer” as defined in Rule 405.

(c) If there occurs an event or development as a result of which the Disclosure Package would include an untrue statement of a material fact or would omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances then prevailing, not misleading, the Company will notify promptly the Representatives so that any use of the Disclosure Package may cease until it is amended or supplemented and will promptly prepare, at its own expense, an amendment or supplement.

(d) If, at any time when a prospectus relating to the Securities is required to be delivered under the Act (including in circumstances where such requirement may be satisfied pursuant to Rule 172), any event occurs as a result of which the Final Prospectus as then supplemented would include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein in the light of the circumstances under which they were made not misleading, or if it shall be necessary to amend the Registration Statement, file a new registration statement or supplement the Final Prospectus to comply with the Act or the Exchange Act or the respective rules thereunder, the Company and the Guarantors promptly will prepare and file with the Commission, subject to the first sentence of paragraph (a) of this Section 4, an amendment, supplement or new registration statement which will correct such statement or omission or effect such compliance.

(e) As soon as practicable, the Company and the Guarantors will make generally available to their respective security holders and to the Representatives an earnings statement or statements of each of the Company, TW NY and TWE and their respective subsidiaries which will satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Act and Rule 158.

(i) The Company and the Guarantors will pay and bear all costs and expenses incident to the performance of their obligations under this Agreement, including (i) the preparation, printing and filing of the Registration Statement (including financial statements and exhibits), the Base Prospectus, any Preliminary Final Prospectus, the Final Prospectus and any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, and any amendments or supplements thereto, and the cost of furnishing copies thereof to the Underwriters, (ii) the preparation, printing and distribution of this Agreement, the Indenture, the Securities, any Blue Sky Survey and any Legal Investment Survey, (iii) the delivery of the Securities to the Underwriters, (iv) the fees and disbursements of the Company’s and the Guarantors’ counsel and the accountants required hereby to provide “comfort letters,” (v) the qualification of the Securities under the applicable securities laws in accordance with Section 4(j) and any filing for review of the offering with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”), including filing fees and reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for the Underwriters in connection therewith and in connection with any Blue Sky Survey and any Legal Investment Survey, (vi) any fees charged by rating agencies for rating the Securities, (vii) the fees and expenses of the Trustee, including the fees and disbursements of counsel for the Trustee, in connection with the Indenture and the Securities, (viii) any expenses and listing fees in connection with the listing of the Securities, (ix) the cost and charges of any transfer agent or registrar and (x) the costs of qualifying the Securities with The Depository Trust Company.

(j) The Company and the Guarantors will arrange, if necessary, for the qualification of each series of Securities for distribution, offering and sale under the laws of such jurisdictions as the Representatives may designate, will maintain such qualifications in effect so long as required for the distribution of such series of Securities and will arrange for the determination of the legality of the Securities for purchase by institutional investors; provided, however, that none of the Company, TW NY or TWE shall be required to (i) qualify as a foreign

corporation or as a dealer in securities in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this Section 4(j), (ii) file any general consent to service of process or (iii) subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction if it is not so subject.

(k) The Company agrees that, unless it obtains the prior written consent of the Representatives, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, agrees with the Company that, unless it obtains the prior written consent of the Company, it has not made and will not make any offer relating to the Securities that would constitute an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or that would otherwise constitute a Free Writing Prospectus, other than the final term sheet prepared and filed pursuant to Section 4(b) hereto or a Free Writing Prospectus that contains only the preliminary terms of the Securities or their offering or information that is included in the Preliminary Final Prospectus or the final term sheet; provided that the prior written consent of the parties hereto shall be deemed to have been given in respect of the Issuer Free Writing Prospectuses included in Schedule IV hereto.

(i) the representations and warranties of the Company, TW NY and TWE in this Agreement are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the Closing Date with the same effect as if made on the

Closing Date and each of the Company, TW NY and TWE has complied with all the agreements and satisfied all the conditions on its part to be performed or satisfied at or prior to the Closing Date;

(ii) no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued and no proceedings for that purpose have been instituted or, to the Company’s knowledge, threatened; and

(iii) since the date of the most recent financial statements included or incorporated by reference in the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus, the Company has made all filings with the Commission and announcements, in either case required to be made by the Act or the Exchange Act.

(2) TW NY shall have furnished to the Representatives a certificate of TW NY, signed by any two officers who are Vice Presidents of TW NY, dated the Closing Date, to the effect that the signers of such certificate have examined the Registration Statement, the Final Prospectus, the Disclosure Package and any supplement or amendments thereto and that the representations and warranties of TW NY in this Agreement are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the Closing Date with the same effect as if made on the Closing Date and TW NY has complied with all the agreements and satisfied all the conditions on its part to be performed or satisfied at or prior to the Closing Date.

(3) TWE shall have furnished to the Representatives a certificate of TWE, signed by any two officers, one of whom is an Executive or Senior Vice President of TWE, dated the Closing Date, to the effect that the signers of such certificate have examined the Registration Statement, the Final Prospectus, the Disclosure Package and any supplement or amendments thereto and that the representations and warranties of TWE in this Agreement are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the Closing Date with the same effect as if made on the Closing Date and TWE has complied with all the agreements and satisfied all the conditions on its part to be performed or satisfied at or prior to the Closing Date.

(f) The Representatives shall have received from Ernst & Young LLP, independent registered public accounting firm for the Company at the Execution Time and at the Closing Date, letters, dated as of the Execution Time and as of the Closing Date as the case may be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Representatives, confirming that they are independent auditors with respect to the Company within the meaning of the Act and the Exchange Act and the respective applicable published rules and regulations thereunder and containing statements and information of the type ordinarily included in accountant’s “comfort letters” to underwriters, delivered according to Statement of Auditing Standards No. 72 (or any successor bulletin), with respect to the audited,

unaudited and pro forma financial statements, as applicable, and certain financial information contained or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Final Prospectus and the Final Prospectus.

(g) Subsequent to the Execution Time or, if earlier, the dates as of which information is given in the Disclosure Package (exclusive of any amendment or supplement thereof) and the Final Prospectus (exclusive of any supplement thereto), there shall not have been (i) any decrease or increase specified in the letter or letters referred to in paragraph (f) of this Section 5 or (ii) any change, or any development involving a prospective change, in or affecting the business (including the results of operations or management) or properties of the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole, except as set forth in or contemplated in the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus (exclusive of any amendment or supplement thereto) the effect of which, in any case referred to in clause (i) or (ii) above, is, in the reasonable judgment of the Representatives, so material and adverse as to make it impractical or inadvisable to proceed with the offering or delivery of any series of Securities as contemplated by the Registration Statement (exclusive of any amendment thereof), the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus (exclusive of any supplement thereto).

(h) Except as disclosed in the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus, subsequent to the Execution Time, (i) there shall not have been any downgrade in the credit ratings of any of the Company’s, TW NY’s or TWE’s debt securities by Xxxxx’x Investor Service, Inc. or Standard & Poor’s Ratings Group, and (ii) none of the Company, TW NY or TWE shall have been placed under special surveillance, with negative implications, by Xxxxx’x Investor Service, Inc. or Standard & Poor’s Ratings Group.

If any of the conditions specified in this Section 5 shall not have been fulfilled in all material respects when and as provided in this Agreement, or if any of the opinions and certificates mentioned above or elsewhere in this Agreement shall not be in all material respects reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Representatives and counsel for the Underwriters, this Agreement and all obligations of the Underwriters hereunder may be canceled at, or at any time prior to, the Closing Date by the Representatives and such cancellation shall be without liability of any party to any other party, except to the extent provided in Sections 4 and 6. Notice of such cancellation shall be given to the Company in writing or by telephone or facsimile confirmed in writing.

6. Reimbursement of Underwriters’ Expenses. If the sale of the Securities provided for herein is not consummated because any condition to the obligations of the Underwriters set forth in Section 5 hereof is not satisfied or because of any refusal,

inability or failure on the part of the Company, TW NY or TWE to perform any agreement herein or comply with any provision hereof other than by reason of a default by any of the Underwriters, the Company and the Guarantors will reimburse the Underwriters severally upon demand for all out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable fees and disbursements of one counsel) that shall have been incurred by them in connection with the proposed purchase and sale of the Securities.

7. Indemnification and Contribution. (a) Each of the Company, TW NY and TWE agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, the directors, officers, employees and agents of each Underwriter and each person who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which they or any of them may become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act or other Federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) (i) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement or in any amendment thereof, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (ii) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Base Prospectus, any Preliminary Final Prospectus, the Final Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, the Disclosure Package or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and agrees to reimburse each such indemnified party, as incurred, for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that none of the Company, TW NY or TWE will be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company, TW NY or TWE by or on behalf of any Underwriter through the Representatives specifically for inclusion therein. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Company, TW NY or TWE may otherwise have.

(b) Each Underwriter severally agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each of the Company, TW NY and TWE, each of their respective directors, each of their respective officers, and each person who controls the Company, TW NY and TWE within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company, TW NY and TWE to each Underwriter, but only with reference to written information relating to such Underwriter furnished to the Company, TW NY and TWE by or on behalf of such Underwriter through the Representatives specifically for inclusion in the documents referred to in the foregoing indemnity. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which any Underwriter may otherwise have. Each of the Company, TW NY and TWE acknowledges that (i) the statements set forth in any Preliminary Final Prospectus and

Final Prospectus in (1) the last paragraph of the cover page regarding the delivery of the Securities and, under the heading “Underwriting”, (2) the list of Underwriters and their respective participation in the sale of the Securities, (3) the sentences related to concessions and reallowances and (4) the paragraph related to stabilization, syndicate covering transactions and penalty bids and (ii) any information expressly furnished by the Underwriters for inclusion in any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus appearing on Schedule IV, which Issuer Free Writing Prospectuses shall not include the final term sheets, the form of which appears in Schedule III, is the only information provided to the Company by the Representatives specifically for inclusion in the documents referred to in the first sentence of the Section 7(b).

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 7 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 7, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the failure so to notify the indemnifying party (i) will not relieve it from liability under paragraph (a) or (b) above unless and to the extent it did not otherwise learn of such action and such failure results in the forfeiture by the indemnifying party of substantial rights and defenses and (ii) will not, in any event, relieve the indemnifying party from any obligations to any indemnified party other than the indemnification obligation provided in paragraph (a) or (b) above. The indemnifying party shall be entitled to appoint counsel (including local counsel) of the indemnifying party’s choice at the indemnifying party’s expense to represent the indemnified party in any action for which indemnification is sought (in which case the indemnifying party shall not thereafter be responsible for the fees and expenses of any separate counsel retained by the indemnified party or parties except as set forth below); provided, however, that such counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. Notwithstanding the indemnifying party’s election to appoint counsel (including local counsel) to represent the indemnified party in an action, the indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel (including separate local counsel), and the indemnifying party shall bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel if (i) the use of counsel chosen by the indemnifying party to represent the indemnified party would present such counsel with a conflict of interest, (ii) the actual or potential defendants in, or targets of, any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party (it being understood, however, that in connection with such action, the indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel (in addition to local counsel) in any one action or separate but substantially similar actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, representing the indemnified parties who are parties to such action or actions), (iii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of the institution of such action or (iv) the indemnifying party shall authorize the indemnified party to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, effect any settlement or compromise or consent to the entry of any

judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which any indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such claim or action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent (i) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of any indemnified party. No indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement or compromise of, or consent to the entry of judgment with respect to, any claim, action, suit or proceeding affected, without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(d) In the event that the indemnity provided in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 7 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party for any reason, the Company, TW NY, TWE and the Underwriters severally agree to contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending same) (collectively “Losses”) to which the Company, the Guarantors and one or more of the Underwriters may be subject in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company, TW NY and TWE on one hand, and by the Underwriters, on the other hand, from the offering of the Securities; provided, however, that in no case shall any Underwriter (except as may be provided in any agreement among underwriters relating to the offering of the Securities) be responsible for any amount in excess of the underwriting discount or commission applicable to the Securities purchased by such Underwriter hereunder. If the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is unavailable for any reason, the Company, TW NY, TWE and the Underwriters severally shall contribute in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and of the Underwriters, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such Losses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. Benefits received by the Company and the Guarantors shall be deemed to be equal to the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses), and benefits received by the Underwriters shall be deemed to be equal to the total underwriting discounts and commissions, in each case as set forth on the cover page of the Final Prospectus. Relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information provided by the Company, TW NY or TWE on the one hand, or the Underwriters on the other, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The Company, the Guarantors and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution were determined by pro rata allocation or any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above. Notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph (d), no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 7, each person who controls an Underwriter within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act and each director, officer, employee and agent of an Underwriter shall have the same

rights to contribution as such Underwriter, and each person who controls the Company, TW NY or TWE within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act, each officer of the Company, TW NY or TWE and each director of the Company, TW NY or TWE shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company and the Guarantors, subject in each case to the applicable terms and conditions of this paragraph (d).

8. Default by an Underwriter. If any one or more Underwriters shall fail on the Closing Date to purchase and pay for any of the Securities agreed to be purchased by such Underwriter or Underwriters hereunder and such failure to purchase shall constitute a default in the performance of its or their obligations under this Agreement, the remaining Underwriters shall be obligated severally to take up and pay for (in the respective proportions for each of the Debt Securities which such Underwriter failed to purchase which the principal amount of the Debt Securities set forth opposite their names in Schedule II hereto bears to the aggregate principal amount of such Debt Securities set forth opposite the names of all the remaining Underwriters) the Securities which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase; provided, however, that in the event that the aggregate principal amount of Securities which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase shall exceed 10% of the aggregate principal amount of Securities set forth in Schedule II hereto, the remaining Underwriters shall have the right to purchase all, but shall not be under any obligation to purchase any, of the Securities, and if such nondefaulting Underwriters do not purchase all of the Securities, this Agreement will terminate without liability to any nondefaulting Underwriter or the Company and the Guarantors. In the event of a default by any Underwriter as set forth in this Section 8, the Closing Date shall be postponed for such period, not exceeding seven days, as the Representatives and the Company shall determine in order that the required changes in the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements may be effected. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall relieve any defaulting Underwriter of its liability, if any, to the Company, the Guarantors and any nondefaulting Underwriter for damages occasioned by its default hereunder.

9. Termination. This Agreement shall be subject to termination in the absolute discretion of the Representatives, by notice given to the Company prior to delivery of and payment for the Securities, if prior to such time (i) trading in the Company’s common stock or any of the Company’s, TW NY’s or TWE’s debt securities shall have been suspended by the Commission or the New York Stock Exchange or trading in securities generally on such exchange shall have been suspended or limited or minimum or maximum prices shall have been established on such exchange, or maximum ranges for prices for securities have been required, by such exchange or by order of the Commission or any other governmental authority, (ii) a banking moratorium shall have been declared either by Federal or New York State authorities or (iii) there shall have occurred any new outbreak or escalation of hostilities, declaration by the United States of a national emergency or war or other calamity or crisis the effect of which on financial markets of the United States is such as to make it, in the judgment of the Representatives, impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offering or delivery of a series of Securities as contemplated by the Final Prospectus (exclusive of any amendment or supplement thereto). If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this

Section, such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party, except to the extent provided in Sections 4(i), 6 and 7.

10. Representations and Indemnities to Survive. The respective agreements, representations, warranties, indemnities and other statements of the Company, TW NY or TWE or any of their respective officers and of the Underwriters set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter or the Company, TW NY and TWE, or any of the officers, directors or controlling persons referred to in Section 7 hereof, and will survive delivery of and payment for the Securities. The provisions of Sections 4(i), 6 and 7 hereof shall survive the termination or cancellation of this Agreement.

11. Notices. All communications hereunder will be in writing and effective only on receipt, and, if sent to the Representatives, will be mailed, delivered or telefaxed and confirmed to them, at the address specified in Schedule I hereto; or, if sent to the Company, TW NY or TWE, will be mailed, delivered or telefaxed to (000) 000-0000 and confirmed to it at 00 Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000, attention of General Counsel.

12. Successors. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and the officers and directors and controlling persons referred to in Section 7 hereof, and no other person will have any right or obligation hereunder.

13. Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement constitutes an agreement solely among the parties hereto, and, except as expressly provided in the last sentence of Section 7(d), is not intended to and shall not confer any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities, legal or equitable, on any person other than the parties hereto and their successors or assigns or otherwise constitute any person a third party beneficiary under or by reason of this Agreement.

14. Applicable Law. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.

15. Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument.

16. No Fiduciary Duty. Each of the Company, TW NY and TWE hereby acknowledges that (a) the purchase and sale of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement is an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Company, TW NY and TWE on the one hand, and the Underwriters and any affiliate through which any such Underwriter may be acting, on the other, (b) the Underwriters are acting as principal and not as an agent or fiduciary of the Company, TW NY and TWE and (c) each of the Company’s, TW NY’s and TWE’s engagement of the Underwriters in connection with the offering and the process leading up to the offering is as independent contractors and

not in any other capacity. Furthermore, each of the Company, TW NY and TWE agrees that it is solely responsible for making its own judgments in connection with the offering (irrespective of whether any of the Underwriters has advised or is currently advising the Company on related or other matters). Each of the Company, TW NY and TWE agrees that it will not claim that the Underwriters have rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owe an agency, fiduciary or similar duty to the Company, TW NY or TWE, in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto.

17. Integration. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings (whether written or oral) between the Company, TW NY, TWE and the Underwriters, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof.

Other terms:		Each Underwriter, on behalf of itself and each of its affiliates that participates in the initial distribution of the Debt Securities, severally represents to and agrees with the Company that (i) in relation to each Member State of the European Economic Area which has implemented the Prospectus Directive (each, a “Relevant Member State”), with effect from and including the date on which the Prospectus Directive is implemented in that Relevant Member State (the “Relevant Implementation Date”), it and each such affiliate have not made and will not make an offer of Debt Securities to the public in that Relevant Member State other than (A) to legal entities which are authorized or regulated to operate in the financial markets or, if not so authorized or regulated, whose corporate purpose is solely to invest in securities; (B) to any legal entity which has two or more

3.		The Debt Securities have been duly authorized and executed by the Company. The Debt Securities, when duly authenticated by the Trustee, and duly issued and delivered by the Company against payment as provided in the Underwriting Agreement, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company entitled to the benefits of the Indenture and enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms, except that the enforceability of the Debt Securities may be subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance or transfer, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law); and the Debt Securities, when issued and delivered, will conform in all material respects to the description contained in the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus under the captions “Description of Debt Securities and the Guarantees” and “Description of the Notes.”

4.		Each Guarantor has duly authorized its guarantee of the Debt Securities (each, a “Guarantee”). When the Debt Securities are duly issued and delivered by the Company against payment as provided in the Underwriting Agreement, the Guarantee of each Guarantor will be a valid and legally binding obligation of each such Guarantor, enforceable against each such Guarantor in accordance with its terms, except that enforceability of the Guarantee may be subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance or transfer, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law); and the Guarantees, when issued and delivered, will conform in all material respects to the description contained in the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus under the captions “Description of Debt Securities and the Guarantees” and “Description of the Notes.”

7.		The statements in the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus under the heading “Certain Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences,” to the extent that they constitute summaries of United States federal law or regulation or legal conclusions, have been reviewed by us and fairly summarize the matters described under that heading in all material respects.

8.		The Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus, as of their respective effective or issue times, appear on their face to be appropriately responsive in all material respects to the requirements of the Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission under the Act (the “Rules and Regulations”), except for the financial statements, financial statement schedules and other financial data included or incorporated by reference in or omitted from any of them and each Form T-1, as to which such counsel expresses no opinion.

9.

10.		The issuance and sale of the Debt Securities by the Company, the issuance of the Guarantees by the Guarantors, the compliance by the Company and each Guarantor with all of the provisions of the Underwriting Agreement, the Indenture, the Debt Securities and the Guarantees and the performance of their obligations thereunder do not and will not (i) result in a violation of the Charter Documents, (ii) breach or result in a default under any agreement, indenture or instrument listed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement, the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 or the Company’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for March 31, 2010, June 30, 2010 or September 30, 2010 or (iii) violate Applicable Law or any judgment, order or decree of any court or arbitrator known to us, except in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above, where the breach, default or violation could not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole. For purposes of this letter, the term “Applicable Law” means

		the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “GCL”), the Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act of the State of Delaware (the “RULPA”), the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act (the “DLLCA”) and those laws, rules and regulations of the United States of America and the State of New York, in each case which in our experience are normally applicable to the transactions of the type contemplated by the Underwriting Agreement, the Indenture, the Debt Securities and the Guarantees except that, “Applicable Law” does not include (i) the anti-fraud provisions of the securities laws of any applicable jurisdiction or (ii) any state securities or Blue Sky laws of the various states.
