NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
1. Defined Terms. Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms which are defined in the Credit Agreement are used herein as therein defined.
2. Amendment. Section 1 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by deleting the references to “137.5” and “37.5” basis points (under the headings “Eurocurrency Margin” and “Base Rate Margin”, respectively) in the final row of the table in the definition of “Pricing Grid” appearing in such Section and substituting in lieu thereof references to “275” and “175” basis points, respectively.
3. Waiver. The Required Banks hereby waive compliance, until July 29, 2005, by the Company with the requirements of Section 7.1(b) of the Credit Agreement with respect to the quarterly period ended March 31, 2005.
4. Conditions to Effectiveness. This Amendment and Waiver shall become effective (the “Effective Date”) on the date on which the Administrative Agent shall have received: (a) this Amendment and Waiver, executed and delivered by the Administrative Agent, the Company, the Special Purpose Borrower and the Required Banks, (b) evidence satisfactory to the Administrative Agent that amendments and waivers to each of the Five-Year Revolving Loan Credit Agreement, dated as of June 20, 2002, among the Company, the several banks from time to time parties thereto and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, and the 364-Day Credit Agreement, dated as of June 18, 2004, among the Company, the several banks from time to time parties thereto and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, shall have become effective, which amendments and waivers shall contain substantially the same terms and conditions as this Amendment and Waiver (other than with respect to the duration of the Waiver set forth herein), (c) an officer’s certificate of the Company certifying compliance with Section 5 of this Amendment and Waiver and (d) for the account of each Bank that executes and delivers this Amendment and Waiver to the Administrative Agent on or before 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on May 20, 2005, an amendment and waiver fee equal to the Applicable Amendment and Waiver Fee Rate of the amount of such Bank’s Aggregate Exposure as of the Effective Date.

The Company hereby confirms, reaffirms and restates that the representations and warranties set forth in Section 6 of the Credit Agreement are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the Effective Date as if made on and as of such date, except to the extent such representations and warranties expressly relate to an earlier date. The Company represents and warrants that, after giving effect to this Amendment and Waiver, no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

Except as expressly waived hereby, the provisions of the Credit Agreement are and shall remain in full force and effect.
