W I T N E S S E T H:
WHEREAS:
(A) The Borrower, the Agent and the banks signatory thereto (the “Existing Banks”) entered into a certain Fourth Amended and Restated Loan Agreement dated as of February 12, 2002, which was amended pursuant to Amendment No. 1 to Fourth Amended and Restated Loan Agreement dated as of February 10, 2003 (as so amended, the “Original Loan Agreement”; the Original Loan Agreement, as amended hereby, and as it may hereafter be further amended, modified or supplemented, is hereinafter referred as the “Loan Agreement”);
(B) The Borrower wishes to amend the Original Loan Agreement to, among other things, (i) extend the A Commitment Termination Date to May 7, 2006, and (ii) extend the B Commitment Termination Date to May 7, 2004, and the Banks and the Agent are willing to amend and supplement the Original Loan Agreement on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth;
(C) Simultaneously with the execution and delivery hereof, each of The Bank of Nova Scotia and Bank of Scotland (each, a “New Bank” and together, the “New Banks”) has agreed to make loans to the Borrower in the amounts set forth opposite its name on its signature page hereto and the Borrower desires to accept the Total Commitment of each New Bank and to cause the New Banks to be added as a “Bank” to the Original Loan Agreement as amended hereby, and the Agent and the Banks are agreeable to the addition of the New Banks;
(D) Certain of the Existing Banks desire to change their respective Total Commitment (as between its A Commitment and B Commitment) to the amounts set forth opposite its name on its signature page hereto and the Borrower desires to accept such changes in the Total Commitment of each of them; and
(E) All capitalized terms used herein which are not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed thereto in the Original Loan Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:
Article 1. Changes in Total Commitments.
Section 1.1 Total Commitments. From and after the date hereof, for purposes of the Loan Agreement, the Total Commitment of each Bank shall be the sum of the amounts set forth opposite each Bank’s name on the signature pages hereto as the same may be reduced pursuant to the terms of the Loan Agreement, and, with respect to each Bank (other than the New Banks) such amount shall supersede and be deemed to amend the amount of such Bank’s respective Total Commitment as set forth opposite its name on the signature pages to the Original Loan Agreement.
Section 1.2 New Banks. Each New Bank agrees with the Borrower, the Banks and the Agent that (i) it will abide by the terms of the Original Loan Agreement, as amended hereby, and (ii) the Loan Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by and against it.
Section 1.3 Adjustment of Outstanding Loans. If any Loans are outstanding under the Original Loan Agreement on the date hereof, the Banks shall on the date hereof, at the direction of the Agent, make appropriate adjustments among themselves in order to insure that the amount (and type) of the Loans outstanding to the Borrower from each Bank under the Loan Agreement (as of the date hereof) are proportionate to the aggregate amount of all of the Total Commitments, after giving effect to the additional Total Commitment of the New Banks and the change of the amounts of the Total Commitment of certain of the Banks. The Borrower agrees and consents to the terms of this Section 1.2.

All B Loans made by each Bank hereunder and all payments and prepayments made on account of the principal thereof, and all conversions of such B Loans shall be recorded by such Bank on the schedule attached to the relevant First Substituted B Note (provided that any failure by such Bank to make any such endorsement shall not affect the obligations of the Borrower hereunder or under such First Substituted B Note in respect of such B Loans).
(c) The Swing Line Loans made by the Swing Line Lender shall be evidenced by a single promissory note of the Borrower (the “First Substituted Swing Line Note”) substantially in the form of Exhibit A-3 annexed to Amendment No. 2.

Each of the Banks (other than the New Banks) shall, upon the execution and delivery by the Borrower of its applicable First Substituted Notes as herein provided, xxxx the Notes delivered to it in connection with the Original Loan Agreement “Replaced by First Substituted Note” and return them to the Borrower.
