(a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and relying upon the representations and warranties herein set forth, each Lender agrees, severally and not jointly, to make Revolving Credit Loans in Dollars or any Optional Currency to the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower, at any time and from time to time on and after the Closing Date and until the earlier of the Maturity Date and the termination of the Commitment of such Lender, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding not to exceed such Lender’s Commitment minus the sum of such Lender’s pro rata share of the then current Revolving L/C Exposure plus the amount by which the Competitive Loans and Competitive L/C Exposure outstanding at such time shall be deemed to have used such Lender’s Commitment pursuant to Section 2.19 subject, however, to the conditions that (a) at no time shall (i) the Revolving Credit Exposure exceed (ii) the Total Commitment and (b) at all times the outstanding aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Credit Loans made by each Lender shall equal the product of (i) the percentage that its Commitment represents of the Total Commitment times (ii) the outstanding aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Credit Loans made pursuant to a notice given by the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower under Section 2.6. The Commitments of the Lenders may be terminated or reduced from time to time pursuant to Section 2.13 or Section 7.

(b) Within the foregoing limits, the Borrower and any Subsidiary Borrower may borrow, pay or repay and reborrow hereunder, on and after the Closing Date and prior to the Maturity Date, upon the terms and subject to the conditions and limitations set forth herein.

SECTION 2.2. Loans.

(a) Each Revolving Credit Loan shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans made by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their Commitments; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender to make any Revolving Credit Loan shall not in itself relieve any other Lender of its obligation to lend hereunder (it being understood, however, that no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make any Loan required to be made by such other Lender). Each Competitive Loan shall be made in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.4. The Revolving Credit Loans or Competitive Loans comprising any Borrowing shall be (i) in the case of Competitive Loans and LIBOR Loans, in an aggregate principal amount that is an integral multiple of $5,000,000 (or the Dollar Equivalent thereof) and not less than $10,000,000 (or the Dollar Equivalent thereof) and (ii) in the case of ABR Loans, in an aggregate principal amount that is an integral multiple of $500,000 and not less than $5,000,000 (or, in the case of clause (i) and clause (ii) above, if less, an aggregate principal amount equal to the remaining balance of the available Total Commitment). ABR Loans shall be denominated only in Dollars.

(b) Each Competitive Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of LIBOR Competitive Loans or Fixed Rate Competitive Loans, and each Revolving Credit Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of LIBOR Revolving Credit Loans or ABR Loans, as the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower may request pursuant to Section 2.4 or 2.6, as applicable. Each Lender may at its option make any LIBOR Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan, provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower or such Subsidiary Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the applicable Note. Borrowings of more than one Interest Rate Type may be outstanding at the same time; provided, however, that neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary Borrower shall be entitled to request any Borrowing that, if made, would result in an aggregate of more than nine separate Revolving Credit Loans of any Lender being outstanding hereunder at any one time. For purposes of the calculation required by the immediately preceding sentence, LIBOR Revolving Credit Loans having different Interest Periods, regardless of whether they commence on the same date, shall be considered separate Loans and all Loans of a single Interest Rate Type made on a single date shall be considered a single Loan if such Loans have a common Interest Period.

(c) Subject to Section 2.7, each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by making funds available at the offices of the Administrative Agent’s Agent Bank Services Department, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., 000 Xxxxxx, 00^xx xxxxx, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxx 00000, Attention of Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx (Telephone No. 000-000-0000; Facsimile No. 713-750-2932), for credit to Cendant Corporation Clearing Account, Account No. 144812905 (Reference: Cendant Corporation Credit Agreement dated as of November 22, 2004) no later than 1:00 P.M. New York City time (2:00 P.M. New York City time, in the case of an ABR Borrowing) in Federal or other immediately available funds. Upon receipt of the funds to be made available by the Lenders to fund any Borrowing hereunder, the

Administrative Agent shall disburse such funds by depositing them into an account of the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower maintained with the Administrative Agent. Competitive Loans shall be made by the Lender or Lenders whose Competitive Bids therefor are accepted pursuant to Section 2.4 in the amounts so accepted and Revolving Credit Loans shall be made by all the Lenders pro rata in accordance with Section 2.1 and this Section 2.2.

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary Borrower shall be entitled to request any Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Maturity Date.

SECTION 2.3. Use of Proceeds.

The proceeds of the Loans shall be used for working capital and general corporate purposes of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, including, without limitation, for acquisitions. No part of the proceeds of any Loan will be used, whether directly or indirectly, for any purpose that entails a violation of any of the Regulations of the Board, including Regulations U and X of the Board.

SECTION 2.4. Competitive Bid Procedure - Competitive Loans

(a) In order to request Competitive Bids for Competitive Loans, the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower shall hand deliver or telecopy to the Administrative Agent a duly completed Competitive Bid Request in the form of Exhibit E-1, to be received by the Administrative Agent (i) in the case of a LIBOR Competitive Loan, not later than 10:00 A.M., New York City time, four Business Days before a proposed Competitive Borrowing, (ii) in the case of a Local Fixed Rate Competitive Loan, not later than 10:00 A.M., New York City time, two Business Day before a proposed Competitive Borrowing and (iii) in the case of a Domestic Fixed Rate Competitive Loan, not later than 10:00 A.M., New York City time, one Business Day before a proposed Competitive Borrowing.

Such request for Competitive Bids shall in each case refer to this Agreement and specify (i) whether the Borrowing then being requested is to be a LIBOR Borrowing or a Fixed Rate Borrowing, (ii) the date of such Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day) and the aggregate principal amount thereof, which shall be in a minimum principal amount of $10,000,000 (or the Dollar Equivalent thereof) and in an integral multiple of $5,000,000 (or the Dollar Equivalent thereof) (or if less, an aggregate principal amount equal to the remaining balance of the available Total Commitment), (iii) the Interest Period with respect thereto (which may not end after the Maturity Date), (iv) the Currency with respect thereto and (v) if such requested Borrowing is to consist of Local Competitive Loans, the jurisdiction in which such requested Borrowing is to be made. Promptly after its receipt of a Competitive Bid Request that is not rejected as aforesaid, the Administrative Agent shall invite by telecopier (in the form set forth in Exhibit E-2) the Lenders to bid, on the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, to make Competitive Loans pursuant to the Competitive Bid Request.

(b) Each Lender may, in its sole discretion, make one or more Competitive Bids for Competitive Loans to the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower responsive to a Competitive Bid Request.

Multiple bids will be accepted by the Administrative Agent. Competitive Bids for Competitive Loans that do not conform substantially to the format of Exhibit E-3 may be rejected by the Administrative Agent after conferring with, and upon the instruction of, the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower, and the Administrative Agent shall notify the Lender making such nonconforming bid of such rejection as soon as practicable. Each Competitive Bid for a Competitive Loan shall refer to this Agreement and specify (i) the principal amount (which shall be in a minimum principal amount of $10,000,000 (or the Dollar Equivalent thereof) and in an integral multiple of $5,000,000 (or the Dollar Equivalent thereof) and which may equal the entire principal amount of the Competitive Borrowing requested by the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower) of the Competitive Loan or Loans that the Lender is willing to make to the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower, (ii) the Competitive Bid Rate or Rates at which the Lender is prepared to make the Competitive Loan or Loans, (iii) the Interest Period or Interest Periods with respect thereto and (iv) in the case of a Local Competitive Loan, the location of and contact information for the lending office.

A Competitive Bid for a Competitive Loan submitted by a Lender pursuant to this paragraph (b) shall be irrevocable.

(c) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower by telecopier of all the Competitive Bids made, the Competitive Bid Rate or Rates and the principal amount of each Competitive Loan in respect of which a Competitive Bid was made and the identity of the Lender that made each bid.

(h) All notices required by this Section 2.4 shall be given in accordance with Section 10.1.

(viii) any Lender shall be prohibited from issuing Competitive Letters of Credit hereunder upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (provided that such Lender shall have received notice of such Event of Default pursuant to Section 8.4 hereof and provided further that such notice shall be received at least 24 hours prior to the date on which any Competitive Letter of Credit is to be issued).

(i) The Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent a fee in the amount of $1,500 in connection with each Competitive Bid Request made pursuant to Sections 2.4 and 2.5; provided that no fee shall be due and payable with respect to the first two Competitive Bid Requests made after November 22, 2004.

The Administrative Agent will, upon request of any Lender that has issued or is making a Competitive Bid for a Competitive Letter of Credit, confirm the total amount of L/C Exposure and the aggregate outstanding Loans to such Lender.

SECTION 2.6. Revolving Credit Borrowing Procedure.

In order to effect a Revolving Credit Borrowing, the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower shall hand deliver or telecopy to the Administrative Agent a Borrowing notice in the form of Exhibit F (a) in the case of a LIBOR Borrowing, not later than 12:00 Noon, New York City time, three Business Days before a proposed Borrowing, and (b) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 12:00 Noon, New York City time, on the day of a proposed Borrowing. No Fixed Rate Competitive Loan shall be requested or made pursuant to a Revolving Credit Borrowing Request. Such notice shall be irrevocable and shall in each case specify (a) whether the Borrowing then being requested is to be a LIBOR Borrowing or an ABR Borrowing, (b) the

date of such Revolving Credit Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day) and the amount thereof and (c) if such Borrowing is to be a LIBOR Borrowing, the Currency and the Interest Period with respect thereto. If no election as to the Interest Rate Type of a Revolving Credit Borrowing is specified in any such notice, then the requested Revolving Credit Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing. If no Currency with respect to any LIBOR Borrowing is specified in any such notice, then the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a borrowing in Dollars. If no Interest Period with respect to any LIBOR Borrowing is specified in any such notice, then the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. If the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower shall not have given notice in accordance with this Section 2.6 of its election to refinance a Revolving Credit Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing, then the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower shall (unless such Borrowing is repaid at the end of such Interest Period) be deemed to have given notice of an election to refinance such Borrowing with an ABR Borrowing. The Administrative Agent shall promptly advise the Lenders of any notice given pursuant to this Section 2.6 and of each Lender’s portion of the requested Borrowing.

SECTION 2.7. Refinancings.

The Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower may refinance all or any part of any Borrowing with a Borrowing of the same Currency and of the same Interest Rate Type (or of the same or different Interest Rate Type, in the case of Loans denominated in Dollars) made pursuant to Section 2.4 or pursuant to a notice under Section 2.6, subject to the conditions and limitations set forth herein and elsewhere in this Agreement, including refinancings of Competitive Borrowings with Revolving Credit Borrowings and Revolving Credit Borrowings with Competitive Borrowings; provided, however, that at any time after the occurrence, and during the continuation, of a Default or an Event of Default, a Revolving Credit Borrowing or portion thereof may only be refinanced with an ABR Borrowing. Any Borrowing or part thereof so refinanced shall be deemed to be repaid in accordance with Section 2.9 with the proceeds of a new Borrowing hereunder and the proceeds of the new Borrowing, to the extent they do not exceed the principal amount of the Borrowing being refinanced, shall not be paid by the Lenders to the Administrative Agent or by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower pursuant to Section 2.2(c); provided, however, that (a) if the principal amount extended by a Lender in a refinancing is greater than the principal amount extended by such Lender in the Borrowing being refinanced, then such Lender shall pay such difference to the Administrative Agent for distribution to the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower or any Lenders described in clause (b) below, as applicable, (b) if the principal amount extended by a Lender in the Borrowing being refinanced is greater than the principal amount being extended by such Lender in the refinancing, the Administrative Agent shall return the difference to such Lender out of amounts received pursuant to clause (a) above, and (c) to the extent any Lender fails to pay the Administrative Agent amounts due from it pursuant to clause (a) above, any Loan or portion thereof being refinanced with such amounts shall not be deemed repaid in accordance with this Section 2.7 and, to the extent of such failure, the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower shall pay such amount to the Administrative Agent as required by Section 2.11; and (d) to the extent the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower fails to pay to the Administrative Agent any amounts due in accordance with Section 2.11 as a result of the failure of a Lender to pay the Administrative Agent any amounts due as described in clause (c) above, the portion of

any refinanced Loan deemed not repaid shall be deemed to be outstanding solely to the Lender which has failed to pay the Administrative Agent amounts due from it pursuant to clause (a) above to the full extent of such Lender’s portion of such Loan.

SECTION 2.8. Fees.

(a) The Borrower agrees to pay to each Lender, through the Administrative Agent, on the 15^th day (or, on the next Business Day, if the 15^th day is not a Business Day) of the calendar month immediately following the end of each fiscal quarter, commencing with the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2004, and on the date on which the Commitment of such Lender shall be terminated as provided herein, a facility fee (a “Facility Fee”), at the rate per annum from time to time in effect in accordance with Section 2.23, on the average daily amount of the Commitment of such Lender, whether used or unused, during the preceding quarter (or shorter period commencing with the Closing Date, or ending with (i) the Maturity Date or (ii) any date on which the Commitment of such Lender shall be terminated). All Facility Fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days. The Facility Fee due to each Lender shall commence to accrue on the Closing Date, shall be payable in arrears and shall cease to accrue on the earlier of the Maturity Date and the termination of the Commitment of such Lender as provided herein.

(d) All fees shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent for distribution, if and as appropriate, among the Lenders. Once paid, none of the fees shall be refundable under any circumstances.

SECTION 2.9. Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt.

(a) The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Credit Loan of such Lender made to the Borrower on the Maturity Date (or such earlier date on which the Revolving Credit Loans become due and payable pursuant to Section 7). The Borrower hereby further agrees to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans made to the Borrower from time to time outstanding from the Closing Date until payment in full thereof at the rates per annum, and on the dates, set forth in Section 2.10. Each Subsidiary Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Credit Loan of such Lender made to such Subsidiary Borrower on the Maturity Date (or such earlier date on which the Revolving Credit Loans become due and payable pursuant to Section 7). Each Subsidiary Borrower hereby further agrees to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans made to such Subsidiary Borrower from time to time outstanding from the Closing Date until payment in full thereof at the rates per annum, and on the dates, set forth in Section 2.10.

(b) The Borrower unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender that makes a Competitive Loan to the Borrower, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Competitive Loan, the principal amount of such Competitive Loan. The Borrower further unconditionally promises to pay interest on each such Competitive Loan for the period from and including the date of Borrowing of such Competitive Loan on the unpaid principal amount thereof from time to time outstanding at the applicable rate per annum determined as provided in, and payable as specified in, Section 2.10. Each Subsidiary Borrower unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender that makes a Competitive Loan to such Subsidiary Borrower, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Competitive Loan, the principal amount of such Competitive Loan made to such Subsidiary Borrower. Each Subsidiary Borrower further unconditionally promises to pay interest on each such Competitive Loan made to such Subsidiary Borrower for the period from and including the date of Borrowing of such Competitive Loan on the unpaid principal amount thereof from time to time outstanding at the applicable rate per annum determined as provided in, and payable as specified in, Section 2.10.

(c) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing indebtedness of the Borrower and any Subsidiary Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Revolving Credit Loan and Competitive Loan of such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time under this Agreement.

(d) The Administrative Agent shall maintain the Register pursuant to Section 10.3(e), and a subaccount therein for each Lender, in which shall be recorded (i) the amount of each Revolving Credit Loan and Competitive Loan made hereunder, the Interest Rate Type thereof and each Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower and any Subsidiary Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) both the amount of any sum received by the Administrative

Agent hereunder from the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower and each Lender’s share thereof.

(e) The entries made in the Register and the accounts of each Lender maintained pursuant to this Section 2.9 shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of the Borrower and any Subsidiary Borrower therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain the Register or any such account, or any error therein, shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower to repay (with applicable interest) the Revolving Credit Loans and Competitive Loans made to the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower by such Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(f) The Borrower and each Subsidiary Borrower agree that, upon the request to the Administrative Agent by any Lender, the Borrower and any Subsidiary Borrower will each execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note of the Borrower or such Subsidiary Borrower, as applicable, evidencing the Revolving Credit Loans of such Lender, substantially in the form of Exhibit A-1 with appropriate insertions as to date and principal amount (a “Revolving Credit Note”).

(g) The Borrower and each Subsidiary Borrower agree that, upon the request to the Administrative Agent by any Lender, the Borrower and any Subsidiary Borrower each will execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note of the Borrower or such Subsidiary Borrower, as applicable, evidencing the Competitive Loans of such Lender, substantially in the form of Exhibit A-2 with appropriate insertions as to date and principal amount (a “Competitive Note”).

SECTION 2.10. Interest on Loans.

(a) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.11, the Loans comprising each LIBOR Borrowing shall bear interest (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days) at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of each LIBOR Revolving Credit Loan, LIBOR for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the applicable LIBOR Spread from time to time in effect and (ii) in the case of each LIBOR Competitive Loan, LIBOR for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Margin offered by the Lender making such Loan and accepted by the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower pursuant to Section 2.4. Interest on each LIBOR Borrowing shall be payable on each applicable Interest Payment Date.

(b) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.11, the Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing shall bear interest (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, when determined by reference to the Prime Rate and over a year of 360 days at all other times) at a rate per annum equal to the Alternate Base Rate plus the applicable margin, if any, for ABR Loans from time to time in effect pursuant to Section 2.23.

(c) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.11, each Fixed Rate Competitive Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days) equal to the fixed rate of interest offered by the Lender making such Loan and accepted by the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower pursuant to Section 2.4.

(d) Interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date applicable to such Loan. The LIBOR or the Alternate Base Rate for each Interest Period or day within an Interest Period shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

SECTION 2.11. Interest on Overdue Amounts.

If the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower shall default in the payment of the principal of, or interest on, any Loan or any other amount becoming due hereunder, the Borrower or such Subsidiary Borrower shall on demand from time to time pay interest, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, on such defaulted amount up to (but not including) the date of actual payment (after as well as before judgment) at a rate per annum computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 365 or 366 days, as applicable, in the case of amounts bearing interest determined by reference to the Prime Rate and a year of 360 days in all other cases, equal to (a) in the case of the remainder of the then current Interest Period for any LIBOR Loan or Fixed Rate Competitive Loan, the rate applicable to such Loan under Section 2.10 plus 2% per annum and (b) in the case of any other Loan or amount, the rate that would at the time be applicable to an ABR Loan under Section 2.10 plus 2% per annum.

SECTION 2.12. Alternate Rate of Interest.

In the event, and on each occasion, that on the day two Business Days prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a LIBOR Loan, the Administrative Agent shall have determined that Dollar deposits or deposits in the applicable Optional Currency in the amount of the requested principal amount of such LIBOR Loan are not generally available in the London Interbank market, or that the rate at which such Dollar deposits or deposits in the applicable Optional Currency are being offered will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to any Lender of making or maintaining its portion of such LIBOR Loans during such Interest Period, or that reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR, the Administrative Agent shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, give written or telecopier notice of such determination to the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower and the Lenders. In the event of any such determination, until the Administrative Agent shall have determined that circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (a) any request by the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower for a LIBOR Competitive Loan pursuant to Section 2.4 shall be of no force and effect and shall be denied by the Administrative Agent and (b) any request by the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower for a LIBOR Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.6 shall be deemed to be a request for an ABR Loan. Each determination by the Administrative Agent hereunder shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

SECTION 2.13. Termination and Reduction of Commitments; Increase of Commitments.

(a) The Commitments of all of the Lenders shall be automatically terminated on the Maturity Date.

(b) Subject to Section 2.14(b), upon at least one Business Day of prior written or telecopy notice to the Administrative Agent (which notice shall have been received not later than 12:00 Noon, New York City time), the Borrower may at any time in whole permanently terminate, or from time to time in part permanently reduce, the Total Commitment; provided, however, that (i) each partial reduction of the Total Commitment shall be in an integral multiple of $5,000,000 and in a minimum principal amount of $10,000,000 and (ii) the Borrower shall not be entitled to make any such termination or reduction that would reduce the Total Commitment to an amount less than the sum of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Loans plus the then current L/C Exposure. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.12(b) shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Commitments delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case, such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied.

(c) Each reduction in the Total Commitment hereunder shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders on the date of each termination or reduction in the Total Commitment, the Facility Fees on the amount of the Total Commitment so terminated or reduced accrued to the date of such termination or reduction.

(d) In the event that the Borrower wishes to increase the aggregate Commitments at any time when no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, it shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing of the amount (the “Offered Increase Amount”) of such proposed increase (such notice, a “Commitment Increase Notice”), and the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of such proposed increase and provide such additional information regarding such proposed increase as any Lender may reasonably request. The Borrower may, at its election, (i) offer one or more of the Lenders the opportunity to participate in all or a portion of the Offered Increase Amount pursuant to paragraph (f) below and/or (ii) with the consent of the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), offer one or more additional banks, financial institutions or other entities the opportunity to participate in all or a portion of the Offered Increase Amount pursuant to paragraph (e) below. Each Commitment Increase Notice shall specify which Lenders and/or banks, financial institutions or other entities the Borrower desires to participate in such Commitment increase. The Borrower or, if requested by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, will notify such Lenders and/or banks, financial institutions or other entities of such offer.

(e) Any additional bank, financial institution or other entity which the Borrower selects to offer participation in the increased Commitments and which elects to become a party to this Agreement and provide a Commitment in an amount so offered and accepted by it pursuant to Section 2.13(d)(ii) shall execute a New Lender Supplement with the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, substantially in the form of Exhibit H, whereupon such bank, financial

institution or other entity (herein called a “New Lender”) shall become a Lender for all purposes and to the same extent as if originally a party hereto and shall be bound by and entitled to the benefits of this Agreement, and Schedule 2.1 shall be deemed to be amended to add the name and Commitment of such New Lender, provided that the Commitment of any such new Lender shall be in an amount not less than $5,000,000.

(f) Any Lender which accepts an offer to it by the Borrower to increase its Commitment pursuant to Section 2.13(d)(i) shall, in each case, execute a Commitment Increase Supplement with the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, substantially in the form of Exhibit I, whereupon such Lender shall be bound by and entitled to the benefits of this Agreement with respect to the full amount of its Commitment as so increased, and Schedule 2.1 shall be deemed to be amended to so increase the Commitment of such Lender.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.13, (i) in no event shall any transaction effected pursuant to this Section 2.13 cause the aggregate Commitments hereunder to exceed $4,000,000,000 and (ii) no Lender shall have any obligation to increase its Commitment unless it agrees to do so in its sole discretion.

SECTION 2.14. Prepayment of Loans.

(a) Prior to the Maturity Date, the Borrower and any Subsidiary Borrower shall have the right at any time to prepay any Revolving Credit Borrowing, in whole or in part, subject to the requirements of Section 2.18 but otherwise without premium or penalty, upon prior written or telecopy notice to the Administrative Agent before 12:00 Noon, New York City, time at least one Business Day in the case of an ABR Loan and at least three Business Days in the case of a LIBOR Loan; provided, however, that each such partial prepayment shall be in an integral multiple of $5,000,000 (or the Dollar Equivalent thereof) and in a minimum aggregate principal amount of $10,000,000 (or the Dollar Equivalent thereof). Neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary Borrower shall have the right to prepay any Competitive Borrowing without the consent of the relevant Lender.

(b) On any date when the sum of the aggregate outstanding Loans (after giving effect to any Borrowings effected on such date) plus the then current L/C Exposure exceeds the Total Commitment, the Borrower shall make a mandatory prepayment of the Revolving Credit Loans (or cause any Subsidiary Borrower to make such a prepayment) in such amount as may be necessary so that the aggregate amount of outstanding Loans plus the then current L/C Exposure after giving effect to such prepayment does not exceed the Total Commitment then in effect. Any prepayments required by this paragraph shall be applied to outstanding ABR Loans up to the full amount thereof before they are applied to outstanding LIBOR Revolving Credit Loans.

(c) Each notice of prepayment pursuant to Section 2.14(a) shall specify the specific Borrowing(s), the prepayment date and the aggregate principal amount of each Borrowing to be prepaid, shall be irrevocable and shall commit the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower to prepay such Borrowing(s) by the amount stated therein. All prepayments under this Section 2.14 shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the principal amount being prepaid, to the date of prepayment.

SECTION 2.15. Eurocurrency Reserve Costs.

The Borrower and any Subsidiary Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender, so long as such Lender shall be required under regulations of the Board to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of, or including, Eurocurrency Liabilities (as defined in Regulation D of the Board), additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each LIBOR Loan made to the Borrower or such Subsidiary Borrower by such Lender, from the date of such Loan until such Loan is paid in full, at an interest rate per annum equal at all times during the Interest Period for such Loan to the remainder obtained by subtracting (i) LIBOR for such Interest Period from (ii) the rate obtained by multiplying LIBOR as referred to in clause (i) above by the Statutory Reserves of such Lender for such Interest Period. Such additional interest shall be determined by such Lender and notified to the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) not later than five Business Days before the next Interest Payment Date for such Loan, and such additional interest so notified to the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower by any Lender shall be payable to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan.

SECTION 2.16. Reserve Requirements; Change in Circumstances.

(a) Except with respect to Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes, which shall be governed solely and exclusively by Section 2.22, if after the Closing Date any change in Applicable Law or regulation or in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof (whether or not having the force of law) (i) shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender, or (ii) shall impose on any Lender or the London Interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or any LIBOR Loan or Fixed Rate Competitive Loan made by such Lender, and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost (other than the amount of Taxes, if any) to such Lender of making or maintaining any LIBOR Loan or Fixed Rate Competitive Loan or to reduce the amount (other than a reduction resulting from an increase in Taxes, if any) of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise) in respect thereof by an amount deemed in good faith by such Lender to be material, then the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower shall pay such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such increase or reduction to such Lender.

(b) If, after the Closing Date, any Lender shall have determined in good faith that the adoption after the Closing Date of any applicable law, rule, regulation or guideline regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender (or any Lending Office of such Lender) with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of the Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender (or its holding company) could have achieved but for such

applicability, adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies or the policies of its holding company, as the case may be, with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then, from time to time, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such reduction upon demand by such Lender.

(c) A certificate of a Lender setting forth in reasonable detail (i) such amount or amounts as shall be necessary to compensate such Lender as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) above, as the case may be, and (ii) the calculation of such amount or amounts referred to in the preceding clause (i), shall be delivered to the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower shall pay the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 Business Days after its receipt of the same.

(d) Failure on the part of any Lender to demand compensation for any increased costs or reduction in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital with respect to any Interest Period shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s rights to demand compensation for any increased costs or reduction in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital with respect to such Interest Period or any other Interest Period. The protection of this Section 2.16 shall be available to each Lender regardless of any possible contention of invalidity or inapplicability of the law, regulation or condition which shall have been imposed.

(e) Each Lender agrees that, as promptly as practicable after it becomes aware of the occurrence of an event or the existence of a condition that (i) would cause it to incur any increased cost under this Section 2.16, Section 2.17, Section 2.22 or Section 2.25(g) or (ii) would require the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower to pay an increased amount under this Section 2.16, Section 2.17, Section 2.22 or Section 2.25(g), it will notify the Borrower and such Subsidiary Borrower of such event or condition and, to the extent not inconsistent with such Lender’s internal policies, will use its reasonable efforts to make, fund or maintain the affected Loans of such Lender, or, if applicable to participate in Letters of Credit or maintain Competitive Letters of Credit, through another Lending Office of such Lender if as a result thereof the additional monies which would otherwise be required to be paid or the reduction of amounts receivable by such Lender thereunder in respect of such Loans, Letters of Credit or Competitive Letters of Credit would be materially reduced, or any inability to perform would cease to exist, or the increased costs which would otherwise be required to be paid in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit pursuant to this Section 2.16, Section 2.17, Section 2.22 or Section 2.25(g) would be materially reduced or the Taxes or other amounts otherwise payable under this Section 2.16, Section 2.17, Section 2.22 or Section 2.25(g) would be materially reduced, and if, as determined by such Lender, in its sole discretion, the making, funding or maintaining of such Loans, Letters of Credit or Competitive Letters of Credit through such other Lending Office would not otherwise materially adversely affect such Loans, Letters of Credit or Competitive Letters of Credit or such Lender.

(f) In the event any Lender shall have delivered to the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower a notice that LIBOR Loans are no longer available from such Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, or if the Borrower or such Subsidiary Borrower is required to pay any

additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.15 or Section 2.21, the Borrower may (but subject in any such case to the payments required by Section 2.17), upon at least five Business Days’ prior written or telecopier notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, identify to the Administrative Agent a lending institution reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent which will purchase the Commitment, the amount of outstanding Loans, any participations in Letters of Credit and any Competitive Letters of Credit from the Lender providing such notice and such Lender shall thereupon assign its Commitment, any Loans owing to such Lender, any participations in Letters of Credit, and any Competitive Letters of Credit and the Notes held by such Lender to such replacement lending institution pursuant to Section 10.3. Such notice shall specify an effective date for such assignment and at the time thereof, the Borrower and any relevant Subsidiary Borrower shall pay all accrued interest, accrued Facility Fees, Utilization Fees and all other amounts (including without limitation all amounts payable under this Section) owing hereunder to such Lender as at such effective date for such assignment.

SECTION 2.17. Change in Legality.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained, if, after the Closing Date, any change in any law or regulation or in the interpretation thereof by any Governmental Authority charged with the administration or interpretation thereof shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain any LIBOR Loan or to give effect to its obligations as contemplated hereby, then, by written notice to the Borrower and to the Administrative Agent, such Lender may:

(i) declare that LIBOR Loans will not thereafter be made by such Lender hereunder, whereupon such Lender shall not submit a Competitive Bid in response to a request for LIBOR Competitive Loans and the Borrower and any Subsidiary Borrower shall be prohibited from requesting LIBOR Revolving Credit Loans from such Lender hereunder unless such declaration is subsequently withdrawn; and

(ii) require that all outstanding LIBOR Loans made by it be converted to ABR Loans, in which event (A) all such LIBOR Loans shall be automatically converted to ABR Loans as of the effective date of such notice as provided in Section 2.17(b) and (B) all payments and prepayments of principal which would otherwise have been applied to repay the converted LIBOR Loans shall instead be applied to repay the ABR Loans resulting from the conversion of such LIBOR Loans.

(b) For purposes of this Section 2.17, a notice to the Borrower by any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17(a) shall be effective on the date of receipt thereof by the Borrower.

SECTION 2.18. Reimbursement of Lenders.

(a) The Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower shall reimburse each Lender on demand for any loss incurred or to be incurred by it in the reemployment of the funds released (i) by any prepayment (for any reason) of any LIBOR or Fixed Rate Competitive Loan if such Loan is repaid other than on the last day of the applicable Interest Period for such Loan or (ii) in the event that after the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower delivers a notice of

borrowing under Section 2.6 in respect of LIBOR Revolving Credit Loans or a Competitive Bid Accept/Reject Letter under Section 2.4(d), pursuant to which it has accepted bids of one or more of the Lenders, the applicable Loan is not made on the first day of the Interest Period specified by the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower for any reason other than (I) a suspension or limitation under Section 2.17 of the right of the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower to select a LIBOR Loan or (II) a breach by a Lender of its obligations hereunder. In the case of such failure to borrow, such loss shall be the amount as reasonably determined by such Lender as the excess, if any of (A) the amount of interest which would have accrued to such Lender on the amount not borrowed, at a rate of interest equal to the interest rate applicable to such Loan pursuant to Section 2.10, for the period from the date of such failure to borrow, to the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan which would have commenced on the date of such failure to borrow, over (B) the amount realized by such Lender in reemploying the funds not advanced during the period referred to above. In the case of a payment other than on the last day of the Interest Period for a Loan, such loss shall be the amount as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent as the excess, if any, of (A) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the amount so paid at a rate of interest equal to the interest rate applicable to such Loan pursuant to Section 2.10, for the period from the date of such payment to the last day of the then current daily Interest Period for such Loan, over (B) the amount equal to the product of (x) the amount of the Loan so paid times (y) the current daily yield on U.S. Treasury Securities (at such date of determination) with maturities approximately equal to the remaining Interest Period for such Loan times (z) the number of days remaining in the Interest Period for such Loan. Each Lender shall deliver to the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower from time to time one or more certificates setting forth the amount of such loss (and in reasonable detail the manner of computation thereof) as determined by such Lender, which certificates shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the amount shown as due on any certificate within thirty days after its receipt of the same.

(b) In the event the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower fails to prepay any Loan on the date specified in any prepayment notice delivered pursuant to Section 2.14(a), the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower on demand by any Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender any amounts required to compensate such Lender for any loss incurred by such Lender as a result of such failure to prepay, including, without limitation, any loss, cost or expenses incurred by reason of the acquisition of deposits or other funds by such Lender to fulfill deposit obligations incurred in anticipation of such prepayment. Each Lender shall deliver to the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower and the Administrative Agent from time to time one or more certificates setting forth the amount of such loss (and in reasonable detail the manner of computation thereof) as determined by such Lender, which certificates shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

SECTION 2.19. Pro Rata Treatment.

Except as permitted under Sections 2.15, 2.16(c), 2.17 and 2.18 (i) each Revolving Credit Borrowing, each payment or prepayment of principal of any Revolving Credit Borrowing, each payment of interest on the Revolving Credit Loans, each payment of the Facility Fees and Utilization Fees, each reduction of the Total Commitment and each refinancing of any Borrowing with, or conversion of any Borrowing to, a Revolving Credit Borrowing, or

continuation of any Borrowing as a Revolving Credit Borrowing, shall be allocated pro rata among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments (or, if such Commitments shall have expired or been terminated, in accordance with the respective principal amount of their outstanding Revolving Credit Loans). Each payment of principal of any Competitive Borrowing shall be allocated pro rata among the Lenders participating in such Borrowing in accordance with the respective principal amounts of their outstanding Competitive Loans comprising such Borrowing. Each payment of interest on any Competitive Borrowing shall be allocated pro rata among the Lenders participating in such Borrowing in accordance with the respective amounts of accrued and unpaid interest on their outstanding Competitive Loans comprising such Borrowing. Each payment of reimbursement obligations, commission, interest or other amounts in respect of a Competitive Letter of Credit shall be allocated to the Issuing Lender of such Competitive Letter of Credit. For purposes of determining the available Commitments of the Lenders at any time, each outstanding Competitive Borrowing and the Competitive L/C Exposure shall be deemed to have utilized the Commitments of the Lenders (including those Lenders that shall not have made Loans as part of such Competitive Borrowing and Lenders that shall not have issued Competitive Letters of Credit) pro rata in accordance with such respective Commitments. Each Lender agrees that in computing such Lender’s portion of any Borrowing to be made hereunder, the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, round each Lender’s percentage of such Borrowing computed in accordance with Section 2.1, to the next higher or lower whole dollar amount.

SECTION 2.20. Right of Setoff.

If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and any Lender shall have directed the Administrative Agent to declare the Loans immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 7, each Lender is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held by such Lender and any other indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender to, or for the credit or the account of, (i) the Borrower, against any of and all the obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement and the Loans to the Borrower held by such Lender, or (ii) any Subsidiary Borrower, against any of and all the obligations of such Subsidiary Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement and the Loans to such Subsidiary Borrower held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or such Loans and although such Obligations may be unmatured. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower or such Subsidiary Borrower, as applicable, after any such setoff and application made by such Lender, but the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The rights of each Lender under this Section 2.20 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have.

SECTION 2.21. Manner of Payments.

All payments by the Borrower and any Subsidiary Borrower hereunder and under the Notes shall be made in Dollars, except that prepayments or repayments in respect of Loans shall be made in the Currency in which such Loan is denominated, in Federal or other immediately available funds without deduction, setoff or counterclaim at the office of the Administrative Agent’s Agent Bank Services Department, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. 000

Xxxxxx, 00^xx xxxxx, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxx 00000, Attention of Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx (Telephone No. 000-000-0000; Facsimile No. 713-750-2932), for credit to Cendant Corporation Clearing Account, Account No. 144812905 (Reference: Cendant Corporation Credit Agreement dated November 22, 2004) no later than 1:00 P.M., New York City time, on the date on which such payment shall be due. Interest in respect of any Loan hereunder shall accrue from and including the date of such Loan to, but excluding, the date on which such Loan is paid or refinanced with a Loan of a different Interest Rate Type.

SECTION 2.22. Taxes.

(a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.22) the Administrative Agent or Lender, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law.

(b) In addition, the Borrower or any relevant Subsidiary Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law.

(c) If the United States Internal Revenue Service or other Governmental Authority of the United States of America or other jurisdiction asserts a claim against the Administrative Agent or a Lender that the full amount of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes has not been paid, the Borrower and each Subsidiary Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower or such Subsidiary Borrower hereunder (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.22) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority (other that those resulting from the Administrative Agent or Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct). A certificate (along with a copy of the applicable documents from the United States Internal Revenue Service or other Governmental Authority of the United States of America or other jurisdiction that asserts such claim) as to the amount of such payment or liability and setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation and basis for such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower by a Lender or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower

or such Subsidiary Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(e) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement and at any other time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate. Each Lender and Administrative Agent that is a United States Person, as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (other than Persons that are corporations or otherwise exempt from United States backup withholding Tax), shall deliver at the time(s) and in the manner(s) prescribed by Applicable Law, to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (as applicable), a properly completed and duly executed United States Internal Revenue Form W-9, or any successor form, certifying that such Person is exempt from United States backup withholding Tax on payments made hereunder.

(f) If the Administrative Agent or a Lender determines, in its sole good-faith discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.22, it shall pay over such refund to the Borrower or such Subsidiary Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower or such Subsidiary Borrower under this Section 2.22 with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that the Borrower or such Subsidiary Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower or such Subsidiary Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This Section 2.22 shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to the Borrower, any Subsidiary Borrower or any other Person.

(g) Each Lender agrees (i) that as between it and the Borrower, any Subsidiary Borrower or the Administrative Agent, it shall be the Person to deduct and withhold Taxes, and to the extent required by law it shall deduct and withhold Taxes, on amounts that such Lender may remit to any other Person(s) by reason of any undisclosed transfer or assignment of an interest in this Agreement to such other Person(s) pursuant to paragraph (g) of Section 10.3 and (ii) to indemnify the Borrower, any Subsidiary Borrower and the Administrative Agent and any officers, directors, agents, or employees of the Borrower, any Subsidiary Borrower or the Administrative Agent against, and to hold them harmless from, any Tax, interest, additions to Tax, penalties, reasonable counsel and accountants’ fees, disbursements or payments arising from the assertion by any appropriate Governmental Authority of any claim against them relating

to a failure to withhold Taxes as required by Applicable Law with respect to amounts described in clause (i) of this paragraph (c).

(h) Each assignee of a Lender’s interest in this Agreement in conformity with Section 10.3 shall be bound by this Section 2.22, so that such assignee will have all of the obligations and provide all of the forms and statements and all indemnities, representations and warranties required to be given under this Section 2.22.

SECTION 2.23. Certain Pricing Adjustments.

The Facility Fee and the applicable LIBOR Spread in effect from time to time shall be determined in accordance with the following table:

S&P/Xxxxx’x/Xxxxx Rating Equivalent Of The Borrower’s Senior Non-Credit Enhanced Unsecured Long-Term Debt	Facility Fee (in Basis Points)	Applicable LIBOR Spread (in Basis Points)

A/A2/A or better	8.0	17.0
X-/X0/X-	00.0	27.5
BBB+/Baa1/BBB+	11.0	39.0
BBB/Baa2/BBB	13.0	49.5
BBB-/Baa3/BBB-	17.5	57.5
BB+/Ba1/BB+ or worse	25.0	112.5

In the event that S&P, Xxxxx’x and Fitch ratings on the Borrower’s senior non-credit enhanced unsecured long-term debt are not equivalent to each other, the higher rating of S&P or Xxxxx’x will determine the Facility Fee and applicable LIBOR Spread, unless the ratings are more than one level apart, in which case the rating one level below the higher rating of S&P or Xxxxx’x will be determinative. In the event that (a) the Borrower’s senior non-credit enhanced unsecured long-term debt is rated by (i) Fitch and only one of S&P or Xxxxx’x, or (ii) only one of S&P or Xxxxx’x (for any reason, including if S&P or Xxxxx’x shall cease to be in the business of rating corporate debt obligations), and not by Fitch, (b) if the rating system of any of S&P, Xxxxx’x or Fitch shall change, or (c) in the event that the Borrower’s senior unsecured long-term debt is (i) not rated by any of S&P, Xxxxx’x or Fitch or (ii) rated only by Fitch, then an amendment shall be negotiated in good faith to the references to specific ratings in the table above to reflect such changed rating system or the unavailability of ratings from such rating agency (including an amendment to provide for the substitution of an equivalent or successor ratings agency). In the event that the Borrower’s senior unsecured long-term debt is (i) not rated by any of S&P, Xxxxx’x or Fitch or (ii) rated only by Fitch, then the Facility Fee and the applicable LIBOR Spread shall be deemed to be calculated as if the lowest rating category set forth above applied until such time as an amendment to the table above shall be agreed to. Any increase in the Facility Fee or the applicable LIBOR Spread determined in accordance with the foregoing table shall become effective on the date of announcement or publication by the Borrower or the applicable rating agency of a reduction in such rating or, in the absence of such

announcement or publication, on the effective date of such decreased rating, or on the date of any request by the Borrower to the applicable rating agency not to rate its senior unsecured long-term debt or on the date any of such rating agencies announces it shall no longer rate the Borrower’s senior unsecured long-term debt. Any decrease in the Facility Fee or applicable LIBOR Spread shall be effective on the date of announcement or publication by any of such rating agencies of an increase in rating or in the absence of announcement or publication on the effective date of such increase in rating.

The applicable margin for ABR Loans shall be the applicable LIBOR Spread minus 100 Basis Points (but not less than 0%).

SECTION 2.24. Prepayments Required Due to Currency Fluctuation. (a) Not later than 1:00 P.M., New York City time, on the last Business Day of each fiscal quarter or at such other time as is reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent (the “Calculation Time”), the Administrative Agent shall determine the Dollar Equivalent of the Revolving Credit Exposures as of such date.

(b) If at the Calculation Time, the Dollar Equivalent of the Revolving Credit Exposure exceeds the Total Commitment by 5% or more, then within five Business Days after notice thereof to the Borrower from the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall prepay Revolving Credit Loans (or cause any Subsidiary Borrower to make such prepayment) in an aggregate principal amount at least equal to such excess. Nothing set forth in this Section 2.24(b) shall be construed to require the Administrative Agent to calculate compliance under this Section 2.24(b) other than at the times set forth in Section 2.24(a).

SECTION 2.25. Letters of Credit.

(a) (i) Prior to the Closing Date, the Existing Issuing Lender(s) have issued the Existing Letters of Credit which, from and after the Closing Date, shall constitute Letters of Credit hereunder. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions hereof, each Issuing Lender agrees to issue standby letters of credit (the letters of credit issued on and after the Closing Date pursuant to this Section 2.25, together with the Existing Letters of Credit, collectively, the “Letters of Credit”) payable in Dollars from time to time after the Closing Date and prior to the earlier of the Maturity Date and the termination of the Commitments, upon the request of the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower, provided that (A) neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary Borrower shall request that any Letter of Credit be issued or reinstated if, after giving effect thereto, the sum of the then current L/C Exposure plus the aggregate Loans then outstanding would exceed the Total Commitment, (B) in no event shall any Issuing Lender issue (x) any Letter of Credit having an expiration date later than five Business Days before the Maturity Date or (y) any Letter of Credit having an expiration date more than one year after its date of issuance, provided that any Letter of Credit with a one-year tenor may provide for the renewal thereof for additional one-year periods (which shall in no event extend beyond the date referred to in clause (x) above), (C) neither Borrower nor any Subsidiary Borrower shall request that an Issuing Lender issue or reinstate any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to such issuance or reinstatement, the L/C Exposure would exceed $1,750,000,000 and (D) an Issuing Lender shall be prohibited from issuing Letters of

Credit hereunder upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (provided that such Issuing Lender shall have received notice of such Event of Default pursuant to Section 8.4 hereof and provided further that such notice shall be received at least 24 hours prior to the date on which any Letter of Credit is to be issued). The Administrative Agent will, upon request of any Issuing Lender, confirm the total amount of L/C Exposure and the aggregate outstanding Loans to such Issuing Lender.

(ii) Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby agrees to, have irrevocably purchased from the applicable Issuing Lender, a participation in such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of such Issuing Lender, such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the Total Commitment, multiplied by the amount paid by such Issuing Lender in respect of a Letter of Credit, issued by such Issuing Lender and not reimbursed by the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower on the date due as provided in this Section 2.25, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower for any reason. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

(iii) Neither the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, any Issuing Lender, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder, or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of any Issuing Lender; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse any Issuing Lender from liability to the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower and any Subsidiary Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower that are caused by such Issuing Lender’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof.

(iv) Each Letter of Credit may, at the option of the applicable Issuing Lender, provide that such Issuing Lender may (but shall not be required to) pay all or any part of the maximum amount which may at any time be available for drawing thereunder to the beneficiary thereof upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and the acceleration of the maturity of the Loans, provided that, if payment is not then due to the beneficiary, such Issuing Lender shall deposit the funds in question in an account with such Issuing Lender to secure payment to the beneficiary and any funds so deposited shall be paid to

the beneficiary of the Letter of Credit if conditions to such payment are satisfied or returned to the Administrative Agent for distribution to the Lenders (or, if all Obligations shall have been paid in full in cash, to the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower) if no payment to the beneficiary has been made and the final date available for drawings under the Letter of Credit has passed. Each payment or deposit of funds by an Issuing Lender as provided in this paragraph shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as a drawing duly honored by such Issuing Lender under the related Letter of Credit.

(b) Whenever the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower desires the issuance of a Letter of Credit, it shall hand deliver or telecopy (or transmit by electronic communication, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the applicable Issuing Lender) to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Lender a written notice no later than 1:00 P.M. (New York time) at least five Business Days prior to the proposed date of issuance provided, however, the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower and the Administrative Agent and such Issuing Lender may agree to a shorter time period. That notice shall specify (i) the Issuing Lender for such Letter of Credit, (ii) the proposed date of issuance (which shall be a Business Day under the laws of the jurisdiction of the applicable Issuing Lender), (iii) the face amount of the Letter of Credit, (iv) the expiration date of the Letter of Credit and (v) the name and address of the beneficiary and (vi) such other information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit. Such notice shall be accompanied by a brief description of the underlying transaction and upon the request of the applicable Issuing Lender, the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower shall provide additional details regarding the underlying transaction. If requested by an Issuing Lender, the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on the Issuing Lender’s standard form in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit, which form shall be furnished in accordance with Section 10.1. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit application or other agreement submitted by the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower to, or entered into by the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower with, any Issuing Lender relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. Concurrently with the giving of written notice of a request for the issuance of a Letter of Credit, the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower shall specify a precise description of the documents and the verbatim text of any certificate to be presented by the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit which, if presented by such beneficiary prior to the expiration date of the Letter of Credit, would require the applicable Issuing Lender to make payment under the Letter of Credit; provided that the applicable Issuing Lender, in its reasonable discretion, may require customary changes in any such documents and certificates. Upon issuance of any Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent of the issuance of such Letter of Credit. Promptly after receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the issuance and the amount of each such Lender’s respective participation therein.

(c) The payment of drafts under any Letter of Credit shall be made in accordance with the terms of such Letter of Credit and, in that connection, any Issuing Lender shall be entitled to honor any drafts and accept any documents presented to it by the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit in accordance with the terms of such Letter of Credit and believed by such Issuing Lender in good faith to be genuine. No Issuing Lender shall have any duty to inquire as to the accuracy or authenticity of any draft or other drawing documents which may be presented

to it, but shall be responsible only to determine in accordance with customary commercial practices that the documents which are required to be presented before payment or acceptance of a draft under any Letter of Credit have been delivered and that they comply on their face with the requirements of that Letter of Credit.

(d) If any Issuing Lender shall be requested to make payment on any draft presented under a Letter of Credit, such Issuing Lender shall give notice of such request for payment to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall give notice to each Lender no later than 3:00 P.M. New York City time of its respective participation therein on behalf of such Issuing Lender. Each Lender hereby authorizes and requests such Issuing Lender to advance for its account pursuant to the terms hereof its share of such payment based upon its participation in the Letter of Credit and agrees to reimburse such Issuing Lender in immediately available funds for the amount so advanced on its behalf no later than 4:00 P.M. New York City time on the date such Issuing Lender makes such request. If such reimbursement is not made by any Lender in immediately available funds on the same day on which such Issuing Lender shall have made payment on any such draft presented under a Letter of Credit, such Lender shall pay interest thereon to such Issuing Lender at a rate per annum equal to the Issuing Lender’s cost of obtaining overnight funds in the New York Federal Funds Market.

(e) In the case of any draft presented under a Letter of Credit provided that the conditions specified in Section 4.2 are then satisfied, and notwithstanding the limitations as to the aggregate principal amount of ABR Loans set forth in Section 2.2(a), as to the time of funding of a Borrowing set forth in Section 2.2(c) and as to the time of notice of a proposed Borrowing set forth in Section 2.6, payment by the applicable Issuing Lender of such draft shall constitute an ABR Loan hereunder, and interest shall accrue from the date the applicable Issuing Lender makes such payment, which ABR Loan, upon and to the extent that a Lender shall have made reimbursement to the applicable Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 2.25(d), shall constitute such Lender’s ABR Loan hereunder. If any draft is presented under a Letter of Credit and (i) the conditions specified in Section 4.2 are not satisfied or (ii) if the Commitments have been terminated, then the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower will, upon demand by the Administrative Agent or the applicable Issuing Lender, pay to the applicable Issuing Lender, in immediately available funds, the full amount of such draft.

(f) (i) The Borrower and each Subsidiary Borrower agree to pay the following amount to each Issuing Lender with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it hereunder:

(A) with respect to drawings made under any Letter of Credit issued for the account of the Borrower or such Subsidiary Borrower, interest, payable on demand, on the amount paid by such Issuing Lender in respect of each such drawing from the date of the drawing to, but excluding, the date such amount is reimbursed by the Borrower or such Subsidiary Borrower at a rate which is at all times equal to 2% per annum in excess of the Alternate Base Rate plus the applicable margin therefore calculated pursuant to Section 2.23; provided that no such default interest shall be payable if such reimbursement is made from the proceeds of Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to Section 2.25(e);

(B) with respect to the issuance, amendment or transfer of each Letter of Credit issued for the account of the Borrower or such Subsidiary Borrower and each drawing made thereunder, documentation and processing charges in accordance with such Issuing Lender’s standard schedule for such charges in effect at the time of such issuance, amendment, transfer or drawing, as the case may be; and

(C) a fronting fee computed at the rate agreed to by the Borrower and the applicable Issuing Lender, on the daily average face amount of each outstanding Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender for the account of the Borrower or such Subsidiary Borrower, such fee to be due and payable in arrears on and through the last day of each fiscal quarter of the Borrower, on the Maturity Date and on the expiration of the last outstanding Letter of Credit.

(ii) The Borrower and each Subsidiary Borrower agree to pay to the Administrative Agent for distribution to each Lender in respect of all outstanding Letters of Credit issued for the account of the Borrower or such Subsidiary Borrower, such Lender’s pro rata share of a commission on the maximum amount available from time to time to be drawn under such outstanding Letters of Credit calculated at a rate per annum equal to the applicable LIBOR Spread from time to time in effect hereunder. Such commission shall be payable in arrears on and through the last day of each fiscal quarter of the Borrower and on the later of the Maturity Date and the expiration of the last outstanding Letter of Credit.

(iii) Promptly upon receipt by any Issuing Lender or the Administrative Agent (as applicable) of any amount described in clause (i)(A) or (ii) of this Section 2.25(f), or any amount described in Section 2.25(e) previously reimbursed to the applicable Issuing Lender by the Lenders, such Issuing Lender shall distribute such amount to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall distribute to each Lender (other than to any Lender which has failed to reimburse the Issuing Lender for the applicable drawing) its pro rata share of such amount. Amounts payable under clauses (i)(B) and (i)(C) of this Section 2.25(f) shall be paid directly to the Issuing Lender and shall be for its exclusive use.

(iv) The obligation of the Borrower and each Subsidiary Borrower to reimburse payments made with respect to any Letter of Credit as provided in this Section 2.25 shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of any event or circumstance whatsoever that might constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrower’s or such Subsidiary Borrower’s Obligations, as the case may be, hereunder.

(g) If at any time when an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, any Letters of Credit shall remain outstanding, then either the applicable Issuing Lender(s), the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders may, at its or their option, require the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower to deposit Cash Equivalents in a Cash Collateral Account in an amount equal to the full amount of the L/C Exposure or to furnish other

security acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Lender(s), provided that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective within one Business Day after the Borrower and/or such Subsidiary Borrower receives notice from the applicable Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, and provided, further that such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the Borrower described in clause (f) or (g) of Article VII. Such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the Obligations. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made in Cash Equivalents and at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and at the Borrower’s and/or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower’s risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Any amounts so delivered pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be applied to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender(s) for the amount of any drawings honored under Letters of Credit issued by it. If the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower is required to deposit Cash Equivalents (or other security) pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2.25(g) as a result of the occurrence of an Event or Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as set forth in the preceding provisions of this paragraph) shall be returned by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower or such Subsidiary Borrower within three Business Days after such Event of Default has been cured or waived.

(h) If at any time, the sum of the L/C Exposure and the outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Loans exceeds the aggregate Commitments, then the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders may, at its or their option, require the Borrower and/or any Subsidiary Borrower to deposit Cash Equivalents in a Cash Collateral Account in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess or to furnish other security for such excess acceptable to the Administrative Agent. Any amounts so delivered pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be applied to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender(s) for the amount of any drawings honored under Letters of Credit issued for the account of the Borrower or such Subsidiary Borrower and held as cash collateral for the Obligations. If the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower is required to deposit Cash Equivalents (or other security) pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2.25(h), such amount (to the extent not applied as set forth in the preceding sentence) shall be returned by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower or such Subsidiary Borrower within three Business Days after such excess is reduced to $0.

(i) Upon the request of the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Lender shall furnish to the Administrative Agent copies of any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender and such related documentation as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent.

(j) Notwithstanding the termination of the Commitments and the payment of the Loans, the obligations of the Borrower, any Subsidiary Borrower and the Lenders under this Section 2.25 shall remain in full force and effect until the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Lender and the Lenders shall have been irrevocably released from their obligations with regard to any and all Letters of Credit.

3.	REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF BORROWER

In order to induce the Lenders to enter into this Agreement and to make the Loans and issue and participate in the Letters of Credit provided for herein, the Borrower makes the following representations and warranties to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, all of which shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the issuance of the Notes and the making of the Loans and issuance of the Letters of Credit and Competitive Letters of Credit:

SECTION 3.1. Corporate Existence and Power.

The Borrower and its Subsidiaries have been duly organized and are validly existing in good standing under the laws of their respective jurisdictions of incorporation and are in good standing or have applied for authority to operate as a foreign corporation in all jurisdictions where the nature of their properties or business so requires it and where a failure to be in good standing as a foreign corporation would have a Material Adverse Effect. The Borrower has the corporate power to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under this Agreement and the other Fundamental Documents and other documents contemplated hereby and to borrow hereunder.

SECTION 3.2. Corporate Authority, No Violation and Compliance with Law.

The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Fundamental Documents and the borrowings hereunder (a) have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Borrower, (b) will not violate any provision of any Applicable Law (including any laws related to franchising) applicable to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective properties or assets, (c) will not violate any provision of the Certificate of Incorporation or By-Laws of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, (d) will not violate or be in conflict with, result in a breach of, or constitute (with due notice or lapse of time or both) a default under, any material indenture, bond, note, instrument or any other material agreement to which the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective properties or assets are bound and (e) will not result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any property or assets of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries other than pursuant to this Agreement or any other Fundamental Document.

SECTION 3.3. Governmental and Other Approval and Consents.

No action, consent or approval of, or registration or filing with, or any other action by, any governmental agency, bureau, commission or court is required in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of this Agreement or the other Fundamental Documents, except such as have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect.

and September 30, 2004, together with the related unaudited statements of income, shareholders’ equity and cash flows for such periods, fairly present the financial condition of the Borrower and its Consolidated Subsidiaries as at the dates indicated and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods indicated in conformity with GAAP subject to normal year-end adjustments in the case of the March 31, 2004, June 30, 2004 and September 30, 2004 financial statements.

SECTION 3.5. No Material Adverse Change.

There has been no material adverse change in the business, assets, operations, or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole from that disclosed in the audited consolidated financial statements (including the footnotes thereto) of the Borrower referred to in Section 3.4 for its 2003 fiscal year.

SECTION 3.6. Copyrights, Patents and Other Rights.

Each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries owns, or is licensed to use, all trademarks, tradenames, copyrights, patents and other intellectual property material to its business, and the use thereof by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries does not infringe upon the rights of any other Person, except for any such infringements that, individually or in the aggregate, would not result in a Material Adverse Effect.

SECTION 3.7. Title to Properties.

Each of the Borrower or its Subsidiaries will have at the Closing Date good title or valid leasehold interests to each of the properties and assets reflected on the balance sheets referred to in Section 3.4 (other than properties or assets owned by a Person that is consolidated with the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries under GAAP but is not a Subsidiary of the Borrower), except for defects in title or interests that would not result in a Material Adverse Effect, and all such properties and assets will be free and clear of Liens, except Permitted Encumbrances.

SECTION 3.8. Litigation.

(a) Except for the Disclosed Matters, there are no lawsuits or other proceedings pending (including, but not limited to, matters relating to Environmental Law and Environmental Liability), or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened, against or affecting the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective properties, by or before any Governmental Authority or arbitrator, which would have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is in default with respect to any order, writ, injunction, decree, rule or regulation of any Governmental Authority, which default would have a Material Adverse Effect.

SECTION 3.9. Federal Reserve Regulations.

Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is engaged principally, or as one of its important activities, in the business of extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any Margin Stock. No part of the proceeds of the Loans will be used, whether immediately, incidentally or ultimately, for any purpose violative of or inconsistent with any of the provisions of Regulation U or X of the Board.

SECTION 3.10. Investment Company Act.

The Borrower is not, and will not during the term of this Agreement be, (x) an “investment company” subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended or (y) subject to regulation under the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935 or the Federal Power Act.

SECTION 3.11. Enforceability.

This Agreement and the other Fundamental Documents when executed by all parties hereto will constitute legal, valid and binding obligations (as applicable) of the Borrower (enforceable in accordance with its terms subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

SECTION 3.12. Taxes.

The Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries has filed or caused to be filed all federal, state and local Tax returns which are required to be filed, and has paid or has caused to be paid all Taxes required to have been paid by it, except (a) Taxes that are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and for which the Borrower or such Subsidiary, as applicable, has set aside on its books adequate reserves in conformity with GAAP or (b) to the extent that the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

SECTION 3.13. Compliance with ERISA.

No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries is in compliance in all material respects with the provisions of ERISA and the Code applicable to Plans, and the regulations and published interpretations thereunder, if any, which are applicable to it. Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries has, with respect to any Plan established or maintained by it, engaged in a prohibited transaction which would subject it to a material tax or penalty on prohibited transactions imposed by ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code. Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries has engaged in a transaction which would result in the incurrence of a material liability under Section 4069 of ERISA. The present value of all accumulated benefit obligations under each Plan (based on the assumptions used for purposes of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 87) did not, as of the date of the most recent financial statements reflecting such amounts, exceed by more than $300,000,000 the fair market value of the assets of such Plan, and the present value of all accumulated benefit obligations of all underfunded Plans (based on the assumptions used for purposes of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 87) did not, as of the date of the most recent financial statements reflecting such amounts, exceed by more than $300,000,000 the fair market value of the assets of all such underfunded Plans.

SECTION 3.14. Disclosure.

As of the Closing Date, neither this Agreement nor the Confidential Information Memorandum dated November 2004, at the time it was furnished, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact, under the circumstances under which it was made, necessary in order to make the statements contained herein or therein not misleading. At the Closing Date, there is no fact known to the Borrower which has not been disclosed to the Lenders and which, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. The Borrower has delivered to the Administrative Agent certain projections relating to the Borrower and its Consolidated Subsidiaries. Such projections are based on good faith estimates and assumptions believed to be reasonable at the time made, provided, however, that the Borrower makes no representation or warranty that such assumptions will prove in the future to be accurate or that the Borrower and its Subsidiaries will achieve the financial results reflected in such projections.

SECTION 3.15. Environmental Liabilities.

Except for the Disclosed Matters and except with respect to any matters, that, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries (i) has failed to comply with any Environmental Law or to obtain, maintain or comply with any permit, license or other approval required under any Environmental Law, (ii) has become subject to any Environmental Liability, (iii) has received notice of any claim with respect to any Environmental Liability or (iv) knows of any basis for any Environmental Liability.

(g) any involuntary case, proceeding or other action against the Borrower or any of its Material Subsidiaries shall be commenced seeking to have an order for relief entered against it as debtor or to adjudicate it a bankrupt or insolvent, or seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, liquidation, dissolution or composition of it or its debts under any law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or relief of debtors, or seeking appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian or other similar official for it or for all or any substantial part of its property, and such case, proceeding or other action (i) results in the entry of any order for relief against it or (ii) shall remain undismissed for a period of sixty days;

8.	THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH ISSUING LENDER

SECTION 8.1. Administration by Administrative Agent.

The general administration of the Fundamental Documents and any other documents contemplated by this Agreement shall be by the Administrative Agent or its designees. Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent, at its discretion, to take or refrain from taking such actions as agent on its behalf and to exercise or refrain from exercising such powers under the Fundamental Documents, the Notes and any other documents contemplated by this Agreement as are delegated by the terms hereof or thereof, as appropriates together with all powers reasonably incidental thereto. The Administrative Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities except as set forth in the Fundamental Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise in writing as directed by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 10.9), and (c) except as expressly set forth herein, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose,

and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 10.9) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower, any Subsidiary Borrower or a Lender, and the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or in connection herewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Section 4 or elsewhere herein. Any Lender which is not the Administrative Agent (regardless of whether such Lender bears the title of any other Agent or any similar title, as indicated on the signature pages hereto) for the credit facility hereunder shall not have any duties or responsibilities except as a Lender hereunder.

SECTION 8.2. Advances and Payments.

(a) On the date of each Loan, the Administrative Agent shall be authorized (but not obligated) to advance, for the account of each of the Lenders, the amount of the Loan to be made by it in accordance with this Agreement. Each of the Lenders hereby authorizes and requests the Administrative Agent to advance for its account, pursuant to the terms hereof, the amount of the Loan to be made by it, unless with respect to any Lender, such Lender has theretofore specifically notified the Administrative Agent that such Lender does not intend to fund that particular Loan. Each of the Lenders agrees forthwith to reimburse the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds for the amount so advanced on its behalf by the Administrative Agent pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence. If any such reimbursement is not made in immediately available funds on the same day on which the Administrative Agent shall have made any such amount available on behalf of any Lender in accordance with this Section 8.2, such Lender shall pay interest to the Administrative Agent at a rate per annum equal to the Administrative Agent’s cost of obtaining overnight funds in the New York Federal Funds Market. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, if such reimbursement is not made by the second Business Day following the day on which the Administrative Agent shall have made any such amount available on behalf of any Lender or such Lender has indicated that it does not intend to reimburse the Administrative Agent, the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary Borrower shall immediately pay such unreimbursed advance amount (plus any accrued, but unpaid interest at the rate applicable to ABR Loans) to the Administrative Agent.

(b) Any amounts received by the Administrative Agent in connection with this Agreement or the Notes the application of which is not otherwise provided for shall be applied, in accordance with each of the Lenders’ pro rata interest therein, first, to pay accrued but unpaid Facility Fees, second, to pay accrued but unpaid Utilization Fees, third, to pay accrued but unpaid interest on the Loans, fourth, the principal balance outstanding on the Loans and fifth, to

pay other amounts payable to the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders. All amounts to be paid to any of the Lenders by the Administrative Agent shall be credited to the Lenders, promptly after collection by the Administrative Agent, in immediately available funds either by wire transfer or deposit in such Lender’s correspondent account with the Administrative Agent, or as such Lender and the Administrative Agent shall from time to time agree.

SECTION 8.3. Sharing of Setoffs and Cash Collateral.

Each of the Lenders agrees that if it shall, through the operation of Sections 2.20, 2.25(g) or 2.25(h) hereof or the exercise of a right of bank’s lien, setoff or counterclaim against the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower, including, but not limited to, a secured claim under Section 506 of Title 11 of the United States Code or other security or interest arising from, or in lieu of, such secured claim and received by such Lender under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of its Revolving Credit Loans or Revolving L/C Exposure as a result of which the unpaid portion of its Revolving Credit Loans or Revolving L/C Exposure is proportionately less than the unpaid portion of any of the other Lenders (a) it shall promptly purchase at par (and shall be deemed to have thereupon purchased) from such other Lenders a participation in the Revolving Credit Loans or Revolving L/C Exposure of such other Lenders, so that the aggregate unpaid principal amount of each of the Lenders’ Revolving Credit Loans and Revolving L/C Exposure and its participation in Revolving Credit Loans and Revolving L/C Exposure of the other Lenders shall be in the same proportion to the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Revolving Credit Loans and Revolving L/C Exposure then outstanding as the principal amount of its Revolving Credit Loans and Revolving L/C Exposure prior to the obtaining of such payment was to the principal amount of all Revolving Credit Loans and Revolving L/C Exposure outstanding prior to the obtaining of such payment and (b) such other adjustments shall be made from time to time as shall be equitable to ensure that the Lenders share such payment pro rata.

SECTION 8.4. Notice to the Lenders.

Upon receipt by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower of any communication calling for an action on the part of the Lenders, or upon notice to the Administrative Agent of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent will in turn immediately inform the other Lenders (including any Issuing Lender) in writing (which shall include telegraphic communications) of the nature of such communication or of the Event of Default, as the case may be.

SECTION 8.5. Liability of Administrative Agent and each Issuing Lender.

(a) The Administrative Agent or any Issuing Lender, when acting on behalf of the Lenders may execute any of its duties under this Agreement by or through its officers, agents, or employees and neither the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders nor their respective directors, officers, agents, or employees shall be liable to the Lenders or any of them for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith, or be responsible to the Lenders or to any of them for the consequences of any oversight or error of judgment, or for any loss, unless the same shall happen through its gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and their respective directors, officers, agents, and employees shall in no event

be liable to the Lenders or to any of them for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it pursuant to instructions received by it from the Required Lenders or in reliance upon the advice of counsel selected by it. Without limiting the foregoing, neither the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders nor any of their respective directors, officers, employees, or agents shall be responsible to any of the Lenders for the due execution, validity, genuineness, effectiveness, sufficiency, or enforceability of, or for any statement, warranty, or representation in, or for the perfection of any security interest contemplated by, this Agreement or any related agreement, document or order, or for the designation or failure to designate this transaction as a “Highly Leveraged Transaction” for regulatory purposes, or shall be required to ascertain or to make any inquiry concerning the performance or observance by the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower of any of the terms, conditions, covenants, or agreements of this Agreement or any related agreement or document.

(b) Neither the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders, nor any of their respective directors, officers, employees, or agents shall have any responsibility to the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower on account of the failure or delay in performance or breach by any of the Lenders or the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower of any of their respective obligations under this Agreement or the Notes or any related agreement or document or in connection herewith or therewith.

(c) The Administrative Agent, and the Issuing Lenders, in such capacities hereunder, shall be entitled to rely on any communication, instrument, or document reasonably believed by it to be genuine or correct and to have been signed or sent by a Person or Persons believed by it to be the proper Person or Persons, and it shall be entitled to rely on advice of legal counsel, independent public accountants, and other professional advisers and experts selected by it.

SECTION 8.6. Reimbursement and Indemnification.

Each of the Lenders severally and not jointly agrees (to the extent not reimbursed or otherwise paid by the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower (pursuant to Section 10.5 hereof)) (i) to reimburse the Administrative Agent, in the amount of its proportionate share of the Total Commitment in effect on the date on which such reimbursement is sought (or, if reimbursement is sought after the date upon which the Total Commitment shall have been terminated in its entirety, in the amount of its proportionate share of the Total Commitment immediately prior to such date), for any expenses and fees incurred for the benefit of the Lenders under the Fundamental Documents, including, without limitation, counsel fees and compensation of agents and employees paid for services rendered on behalf of the Lenders, and any other expense incurred in connection with the administration or enforcement thereof; (ii) to indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent and any of its directors, officers, employees, or agents, on demand, in the amount of its proportionate share of the Total Commitment in effect on the date on which such indemnification is sought (or, if indemnification is sought after the date upon which the Total Commitment shall have been terminated in its entirety, in the amount of its proportionate share of the Total Commitment immediately prior to such date), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses, or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against it or any of them in any way relating to or arising out of the Fundamental

Documents or any action taken or omitted by it or any of them under the Fundamental Documents to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower or one of its Subsidiaries (including any Subsidiary Borrower) (except such as shall result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Person seeking indemnification); and (iii) to indemnify and hold harmless the Issuing Lenders (other than in respect of Competitive Letters of Credit) and any of their respective directors, officers, employees, or agents or demand in the amount of its proportionate share from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatever which may be imposed or incurred by or asserted against it relating to or arising out of the issuance of any Letters of Credit not reimbursed by the Borrower or one of its Subsidiaries (including any Subsidiary Borrower) (except such as shall result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Person seeking indemnification).

SECTION 8.7. Rights of Administrative Agent.

It is understood and agreed that JPMorgan Chase Bank shall have the same rights and powers hereunder (including the right to give such instructions) as the other Lenders and may exercise such rights and powers, as well as its rights and powers under other agreements and instruments to which it is or may be party, and engage in other transactions with the Borrower or any Subsidiary (including any Subsidiary Borrower) or other Affiliate thereof as though it were not the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders under this Agreement.

The Administrative Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent; provided that no such delegation shall limit or reduce in any way the Administrative Agent’s duties and obligations to the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower under this Agreement. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and any Affiliate of the Administrative Agent or any such sub-agent, may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers through their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and advisors. The exculpatory provisions of Section 8.5 shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.

SECTION 8.8. Independent Investigation by Lenders.

Each of the Lenders acknowledges that it has decided to enter into this Agreement and to make the Loans and issue and participate in the Letters of Credit hereunder, and will continue to make such decisions, based on its own analysis of the transactions contemplated hereby, based on such documents and other information as it has deemed appropriate and on the creditworthiness of the Borrower and agrees that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Issuing Lender shall bear responsibility therefor.

SECTION 8.9. Notice of Transfer.

The Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lenders may deem and treat any Lender which is a party to this Agreement as the owners of such Lender’s respective portions of

the Loans and Letter of Credit reimbursement rights for all purposes, unless and until a written notice of the assignment or transfer thereof executed by any such Lender shall have been received by the Administrative Agent and become effective pursuant to Section 10.3.

SECTION 8.10. Successor Administrative Agent.

The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Borrower (with the consent of the Required Lenders, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Borrower and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which with the consent of the Borrower, which will not be unreasonably withheld, shall be a commercial bank organized or licensed under the laws of the United States of America or of any State thereof and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 8 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement.

After any retiring Issuing Lender’s resignation hereunder as an Issuing Lender, the provisions of this Agreement shall continue to inure to its benefit as to any outstanding Letters of Credit or otherwise with regard to outstanding L/C Exposure and any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was an Issuing Lender under this Agreement.

SECTION 8.12. Agents Generally.

Except as expressly set forth herein, no Agent shall have any duties or responsibilities hereunder in its capacity as such; and shall incur no liability, under this Agreement and the other Fundamental Documents.

9.	GUARANTY OF SUBSIDIARY BORROWER OBLIGATIONS

SECTION 9.1. Guaranty.

(a) The Borrower hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guaranties to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders and their respective successors, indorsees, transferees and assigns, the prompt and complete payment and performance by any

Subsidiary Borrower when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the Subsidiary Borrower Obligations.

(b) The Borrower further agrees to pay any and all expenses (including, without limitation, all fees and disbursements of counsel) which may be paid or incurred by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender in enforcing, or obtaining advice of counsel in respect of, any rights with respect to, or collecting, any or all of the Subsidiary Borrower Obligations and/or enforcing any rights with respect to, or collecting against, any Subsidiary Borrower under this Guaranty; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm for the Lenders or any Issuing Lender (unless there shall exist an actual conflict of interest among such Persons, and in such case, not more than two separate firms) in connection with any one such action or any separate, but substantially similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction, nor shall the Borrower be liable for any settlement or proceeding effected without the Borrower’s written consent. This Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect until the Subsidiary Borrower Obligations are paid in full and the Commitments are terminated.

(c) No payment or payments made by any Subsidiary Borrower or any other Person or received or collected by the Administrative Agent or any Lender from any Subsidiary Borrower or any other Person by virtue of any action or proceeding or any set-off or appropriation or application, at any time or from time to time, in reduction of or in payment of the Subsidiary Borrower Obligations shall be deemed to modify, reduce, release or otherwise affect the liability of the Borrower hereunder which shall, notwithstanding any such payment or payments (other than payments made by the Borrower in respect of the Subsidiary Borrower Obligations or payments received or collected from the Borrower in respect of the Subsidiary Borrower Obligations), remain liable for the Subsidiary Borrower Obligations until the Subsidiary Borrower Obligations are paid in full and the Commitments are terminated.

(d) The Borrower agrees that whenever, at any time, or from time to time, it shall make any payment to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on account of its liability hereunder, it will notify the Administrative Agent and such Lender in writing that such payment is made under this Guaranty for such purpose.

SECTION 9.2. No Subrogation. Notwithstanding any payment or payments made by the Borrower hereunder, or any set-off or application of funds of the Borrower by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, the Borrower shall not be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against any Subsidiary Borrower or against any collateral security or Guaranty or right of offset held by the Administrative Agent or any Lender for the payment of the Subsidiary Borrower Obligations, nor shall the Borrower seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from any Subsidiary Borrower in respect of payments made by the Borrower hereunder, until all amounts owing to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders by any Subsidiary Borrower on account of the Subsidiary Borrower Obligations are paid in full and the Commitments are terminated. If any amount shall be paid to the Borrower on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Subsidiary Borrower Obligations shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held by the Borrower in trust for the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, segregated from other funds of the Borrower, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by the Borrower, be turned over to the

Administrative Agent in the exact form received by the Borrower (duly indorsed by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, if required), to be applied against the Subsidiary Borrower Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in such order as the Administrative Agent may determine.

SECTION 9.3. Amendments, etc. with respect to the Obligations; Waiver of Rights. The Borrower shall remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding that, without any reservation of rights against the Borrower, and without notice to or further assent by the Borrower, any demand for payment of any of the Subsidiary Borrower Obligations made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender may be rescinded by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, and any of the Subsidiary Borrower Obligations continued, and the Subsidiary Borrower Obligations, or the liability of any other party upon or for any part thereof, or any collateral security or guaranty therefor or right of offset with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, and this Agreement and any other documents executed and delivered in connection herewith may be amended, modified, supplemented or terminated, in whole or in part, as the Administrative Agent (or the requisite Lenders, as the case may be) may deem advisable from time to time, and any collateral security, guaranty or right of offset at any time held by the Administrative Agent or any Lender for the payment of the Subsidiary Borrower Obligations may be sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien at any time held by it as security for the Subsidiary Borrower Obligations or for the Guaranty under this Section 9 or any property subject thereto. When making any demand hereunder against the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any Lender may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on any Subsidiary Borrower, and any failure by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make any such demand or to collect any payments from any Subsidiary Borrower or any release of any Subsidiary Borrower shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligations or liabilities hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, express or implied, or as a matter of law, of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against the Borrower. For the purposes hereof “demand” shall include the commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings.

SECTION 9.4. Guaranty Absolute and Unconditional. The Borrower waives any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Subsidiary Borrower Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by the Administrative Agent or any Lender upon this Guaranty or acceptance of the Guaranty under this Section 9; the Subsidiary Borrower Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred, or renewed, extended, amended or waived, in reliance upon the Guaranty under this Section 9; and all dealings between any Subsidiary Borrower and the Borrower, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, on the other, shall likewise be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon the Guaranty under this Section 9. The Borrower waives diligence, presentment, protest, demand for payment and notice of default or nonpayment to or upon any Subsidiary Borrower or the Borrower with respect to the Subsidiary Borrower Obligations. The Guaranty under this Section 9 shall be construed as a continuing, absolute and unconditional guaranty of payment without regard to (a) the validity or enforceability of this Agreement, any of the Subsidiary Borrower Obligations or any other collateral security therefor or guaranty or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from

time to time held by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, (b) any defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment or performance) which may at any time be available to or be asserted by any Subsidiary Borrower against the Administrative Agent or any Lender, or (c) any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of such Subsidiary Borrower or the Borrower) which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of Subsidiary Borrower for its Subsidiary Borrower Obligations, or of the Borrower under the guaranty under this Section 9, in bankruptcy or in any other instance. When pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and any Lender may, but shall be under no obligation to, pursue such rights and remedies as it may have against any Subsidiary Borrower or any other Person or against any collateral security or guaranty for the Subsidiary Borrower Obligations or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from any Subsidiary Borrower or any such other Person or to realize upon any such collateral security or guaranty or to exercise any such right of offset, or any release of Subsidiary Borrower or any such other Person or of any such collateral security, guaranty or right of offset, shall not relieve the Borrower of any liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against such Subsidiary Borrower. The Guaranty under this Section 9 shall remain in full force and effect and be binding in accordance with and to the extent of its terms upon the Borrower and its successors and assigns thereof, and shall inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and their respective successors, indorsees, transferees and assigns, until all the Subsidiary Borrower Obligations and the obligations of the Borrower under the Guaranty under this Section 9 shall have been satisfied by payment in full and the Commitments shall be terminated, notwithstanding that from time to time during the term of this Agreement any Subsidiary Borrower may be free from any Subsidiary Borrower Obligations.

SECTION 9.5. Reinstatement. The Guaranty under this Section 9 shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Subsidiary Borrower Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Administrative Agent or any Lender upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of any Subsidiary Borrower or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, any Subsidiary Borrower or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payments had not been made.

All warranties, representations and covenants made by the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower herein or in any certificate or other instrument delivered by it or on its behalf in connection with this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and shall survive the making of the Loans herein contemplated and the issuance and delivery to the Administrative Agent of the Notes regardless of any investigation made by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders or on their behalf and shall continue in full force and effect so long as any amount due or to become due hereunder is outstanding and unpaid and so long as the Commitment has not been terminated. All statements in any such certificate or other instrument shall constitute representations and warranties by the Borrower or such Subsidiary Borrower hereunder.

SECTION 10.3. Successors and Assigns; Syndications; Loan Sales; Participations.

(a) Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the successors and assigns of such party (provided, however, that neither Borrower nor any Subsidiary Borrower may assign its rights hereunder without the prior written consent of all the Lenders), and all covenants, promises and agreements by, or on behalf of, the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower which are contained in this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Lenders.

(b) Each of the Lenders may (but only with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Borrower, which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, provided that the consent of the Borrower shall not be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) assign to one or more banks or other entities either (i) all or a portion of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitment and the same portion of the Revolving Credit Loans at the time owing to it and the Revolving Credit Notes held by it and its Revolving L/C Exposure) (a “Ratable Assignment”) or (ii) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under and in respect of (A) its Commitment under this Agreement and the same portion of the Revolving Credit Loans at the time owing to it and its Revolving L/C Exposure or (B) the Competitive Loans at the time owing to it (including, without limitation, in the case of any such type of Loan, the same portion of the associated Note) or the Competitive Letters of Credit at the time issued by it (including, without limitation, in the case of Competitive Letters of Credit, any unpaid reimbursement obligations) (a “Non-Ratable Assignment”); provided, however, that (1) each Non-Ratable Assignment shall be of a constant, and not a varying, percentage of all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of the Loans, L/C Exposure and the Commitment (if applicable) which are the subject of such assignment, (2) each Ratable Assignment shall be of a constant, and not a varying, percentage of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, (3) the amount of the Commitment, Competitive Loans or Competitive Letters of Credit, as the case may be, of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Lender) shall be in a minimum principal amount of $1,000,000 (or, if less, the remaining portion of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement) unless otherwise agreed by the Borrower and the

Administrative Agent and (4) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register (as defined below), an Assignment and Acceptance, together with any Note or Notes subject to such assignment and a processing and recordation fee of $3,500. Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, and from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, which effective date shall be not earlier than five Business Days (or such shorter period approved by the Administrative Agent) after the date of acceptance and recording by the Administrative Agent, (x) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder and (y) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such assigning Lender shall cease to be a party hereto).

(c) Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section 10.3, each Lender may at any time make a Ratable Assignment or a Non-Ratable Assignment of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to (i) any Affiliate of such Lender or (ii) any other Lender hereunder without the consent of the Borrower provided that it meets the registration requirements in Section 10.3(b)(4).

(d) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the assigning Lender thereunder and the assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) other than the representation and warranty that it is the legal and beneficial owner of the interest being assigned thereby free and clear of any adverse claim, the assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in, or in connection with, this Agreement or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of the Fundamental Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto; (ii) such Lender assignor makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of the Borrower or the performance or observance by the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower of any of its obligations under the Fundamental Documents; (iii) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of the most recent financial statements delivered pursuant to Sections 5.1(a) and 5.1(b) (or if none of such financial statements shall have then been delivered, then copies of the financial statements referred to in Section 3.4 hereof) and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) such assignee will, independently and without reliance upon the assigning Lender, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement; (v) such assignee appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under the Fundamental Documents as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vi) such assignee agrees that it will be bound by the provisions of this Agreement and will perform in accordance with its terms all of the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender.

(e) The Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Borrower, shall maintain at its address at which notices are to be given to it pursuant to Section 10.1, a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitments of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Borrower, any Subsidiary Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of a Loan or other obligation hereunder as the owner thereof for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Fundamental Documents, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. Any assignment shall be effective only upon appropriate entries with respect thereto being made in the Register. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(f) Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, any Notes subject to such assignment and the processing and recordation fee, the Administrative Agent (subject to the right, if any, of the Borrower to require its consent thereto) shall, if such Assignment and Acceptance has been completed and is substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto, (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance, (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt written notice thereof to the Borrower. If a portion of the Commitment has been assigned by an assigning Lender, then such Lender shall deliver its Revolving Credit Note, if any, at the same time it delivers the applicable Assignment and Acceptance to the Administrative Agent. If only Competitive Loans have been assigned by the assigning Lender, such assigning Lender shall deliver its Competitive Note, if any, at the same time it delivers the applicable Assignment and Acceptance to the Administrative Agent. Within five Business Days after receipt of the notice, the Borrower, at its own expense, shall execute and deliver to the applicable Lenders at their request, either (A) a new Revolving Credit Note payable to such assignee in an amount equal to the Commitment assumed by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance and a Competitive Note payable to such assignee in an amount equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Competitive Loans assumed by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance hereunder, and a new Revolving Credit Note payable to the assigning Lender in an amount equal to the Commitment retained by it hereunder, or (B) if Competitive Loans only have been assigned, then a new Competitive Note payable to such assignee in an amount equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Competitive Loans(s) purchased by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance and, a new Competitive Note payable to the assigning Lender in an amount equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Competitive Loans retained by it hereunder. Any new Revolving Credit Notes shall be in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Commitments of the respective Lenders. All new Notes shall be dated as of the Closing Date and shall otherwise be in substantially the forms of Exhibits A-1 and A-2 hereto, as the case may be. No assignment shall be effective for purpose of the Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

(g) Each of the Lenders may, without the consent of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Lender, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it and

the Note or Notes held by it); provided, however, that (i) any such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Participant shall not be granted any voting rights under this Agreement, except with respect to matters requiring the consent of each of the Lenders hereunder, (iii) any such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iv) the participating banks or other entities shall be entitled to the cost protection provisions of Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.18, 2.22 and 2.25 hereof (and subject to the limitations thereof) but a Participant shall not be entitled to receive pursuant to such provisions an amount larger than its share of the amount to which the Lender granting such participation would have been entitled to receive; provided that a Participant shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.22 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 2.22(e) as though it were a Lender, and (v) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.

(h) The Lenders may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 10.3, disclose to the assignee or Participant or proposed assignee or Participant, any information, including confidential information, relating to the Borrower furnished to the Administrative Agent by or on behalf of the Borrower; provided that prior to any such disclosure, each such assignee or Participant or proposed assignee or Participant agrees in writing to be bound by the confidentiality provisions of Section 10.15.

(i) Each Lender hereby represents that it is a commercial lender or financial institution which makes loans in the ordinary course of its business and that it will make the Loans hereunder for its own account in the ordinary course of such business; provided, however, that, subject to preceding clauses (a) through (h), the disposition of the Notes or other evidence of Indebtedness held by that Lender shall at all times be within its exclusive control.

(j) The Borrower consents that any Lender may at any time and from time to time pledge, or otherwise grant a security interest in, any Loan or any Note evidencing such Loan (or any part thereof), including any such pledge or grant to any Federal Reserve Bank, and, with respect to any Lender which is a fund, to the fund’s trustee in support of its obligations to such trustee, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or grant; provided that no such pledge or grant shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(k) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an “SPC”), identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, the option to provide to the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower all or any part of any Revolving Credit Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to the Borrower or such Subsidiary Borrower pursuant to Section 2.1 or 2.7, provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment to make any Revolving Credit Loan by any SPC and (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Revolving Credit Loan or fund any other obligation required to be funded by it hereunder, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Revolving Credit Loan or fund such

obligation pursuant to the terms hereof. The making of a Revolving Credit Loan by an SPC hereunder shall satisfy the obligation of the Granting Lenders to make Revolving Credit Loans to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by the Granting Lender. Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPC shall be liable for any payment under this Agreement for which a Lender would otherwise be liable, for so long as, and to the extent, the related Granting Lender makes such payment. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding senior indebtedness of any SPC, it will not institute against or join any other person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings or similar proceedings under the laws of the United States or any State thereof. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 10.3 any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Revolving Credit Loan to its Granting Lender or to any financial institutions providing liquidity and/or credit facilities to or for the account of such SPC to fund the Revolving Credit Loans made by SPC or to support the securities (if any) issued by such SPC to fund such Revolving Credit Loans and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its Revolving Credit Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of a surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC.

SECTION 10.4. Expenses.

Whether or not the transactions hereby contemplated shall be consummated, the Borrower agrees to pay all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the syndication, preparation, execution, delivery and administration of this Agreement, the Notes, the making of the Loans and issuance and administration of the Letters of Credit, the reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx & Xxxxxxxx LLP, counsel to the Administrative Agent, as well as all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Lenders in connection with any restructuring or workout of this Agreement, the Notes, the Letters of Credit or the Competitive Letters of Credit or in connection with the enforcement or protection of the rights of the Lenders in connection with this Agreement or the Notes or the Letters of Credit or any other Fundamental Document, and with respect to any action which may be instituted by any Person against any Lender or any Issuing Lender in respect of the foregoing, or as a result of any transaction, action or nonaction arising from the foregoing, including but not limited to the reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of any counsel for the Lenders or any Issuing Lender, provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm for the Lenders or any Issuing Lender (unless there shall exist an actual conflict of interest among such Persons, and in such case, not more than two separate firms) in connection with any one such action or any separate but substantially similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction, nor shall the Borrower be liable for any settlement or any proceeding effected without the Borrower’s written consent. Such payments shall be made on the Closing Date and thereafter on demand. The obligations of the Borrower under this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and/or the payment of the Loans and/or expiration of the Letters of Credit and Competitive Letters of Credit.

SECTION 10.5. Indemnity.

Further, by the execution hereof, the Borrower and each Subsidiary Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents (each, an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all expenses (including reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of counsel), losses, claims, damages and liabilities arising out of any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding (regardless of whether any such Indemnified Party is a party thereto) in any way relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, but excluding therefrom all expenses, losses, claims, damages, and liabilities arising out of or resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Indemnified Party seeking indemnification or any of its Related Parties, provided, however, neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary Borrower shall be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm for all such Indemnified Parties (unless there shall exist an actual conflict of interest among such Indemnified Parties, and in such case, not more than two separate firms) in connection with any one such action or any separate but substantially similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction, nor shall the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without the Borrower’s or such Subsidiary Borrower’s written consent, and provided further, however, that this Section 10.5 shall not be construed to expand the scope of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrower and any Subsidiary Borrower specified in Section 10.4. The obligations of the Borrower and any Subsidiary Borrower under this Section 10.5 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and/or payment of the Loans and/or the expiration of the Letters of Credit and Competitive Letters of Credit.

SECTION 10.6. CHOICE OF LAW.

THIS AGREEMENT AND THE NOTES HAVE BEEN EXECUTED AND DELIVERED IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND SHALL IN ALL RESPECTS BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, AND GOVERNED BY, THE LAWS OF SUCH STATE APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS MADE AND TO BE PERFORMED WHOLLY WITHIN SUCH STATE AND, IN THE CASE OF PROVISIONS RELATING TO INTEREST RATES, ANY APPLICABLE LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.

SECTION 10.7. No Waiver.

No failure on the part of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Lender to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder or under the Notes or with regards to the Letters of Credit or Competitive Letters of Credit shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. All remedies hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other remedies provided by law.

SECTION 10.8. Extension of Maturity.

Except as otherwise specifically provided in Section 1 or 8 hereof, should any payment of principal of or interest on the Notes or any other amount due hereunder become due

and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, in the case of principal, interest shall be payable thereon at the rate herein specified during such extension.

SECTION 10.9. Amendments, etc.

(a) Except as set forth in Section 10.9(b), no modification, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, and no consent to any departure by the Borrower herefrom or therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed or consented to in writing by the Required Lenders, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given; provided, however, that no such modification or amendment shall without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby (w) increase or extend the expiration date of the Commitment of a Lender or postpone or waive any scheduled reduction in the Commitments, (x) provide for funding of Revolving Credit Loans at any location outside of the United States, (y) alter the stated maturity or principal amount of any installment of any Loan (or any reimbursement obligation with respect to a Letter of Credit or Competitive Letter of Credit) or decrease the rate of interest payable thereon or extend the scheduled date of any payment thereof, or the rate at which the Facility Fees, Utilization Fees or letter of credit fees accrue or (z) waive a default under Section 7(b) hereof with respect to a scheduled principal installment of any Loan; and provided, further that no such modification or amendment shall without the written consent of all of the Lenders (i) amend or modify any provision of this Agreement which provides for the unanimous consent or approval of the Lenders, (ii) amend this Section 10.9 or the definition of Required Lenders or (iii) release the Borrower from its obligations under the Guaranty; and provided, further that no such modification or amendment shall decrease the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender. No such amendment or modification may adversely affect the rights and obligations of the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Lender hereunder without its prior written consent. No notice to or demand on the Borrower shall entitle the Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances. Each holder of a Note shall be bound by any amendment, modification, waiver or consent authorized as provided herein, whether or not a Note shall have been marked to indicate such amendment, modification, waiver or consent and any consent by any holder of a Note shall bind any Person subsequently acquiring a Note, whether or not a Note is so marked.

(b) This Agreement may be amended without consent of the Lenders, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, as follows:
