NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises herein contained and for other good and valuable consideration, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

“Aggregate Committed Sum” means, as of any date, the aggregate of the Committed Sums of all Lenders in effect on such date.

Participation Fee Rate” as the case may be, based upon the ratings by Xxxxx’x, S&P and Fitch, respectively, applicable on such date to the Index Debt:


Index Debt Ratings:	Base Rate Spread	Eurocurrency Spread	Eurodollar Spread	Facility Fee Rate	Utilization Fee Rate	Performance LC Participation Fee Rate	Financial LC Participation Fee Rate

For purposes of the foregoing, (i) if Xxxxx’x, S&P or Fitch shall not have in effect a rating for the Index Debt (other than by reason of the circumstances referred to in the last sentence of this definition), then such rating agency shall be deemed to have established a rating in category 7 above; (ii) if the ratings established or deemed to have been established by Xxxxx’x, S&P and Fitch for the Index Debt shall fall within different categories above, the Applicable Rate shall be based on the lowest (numerically highest) of the three categories unless one of the three ratings is two or more categories lower than the lower of the other two, in which case the Applicable Rate shall be determined by reference to the category next above that of the lowest (numerically highest) of the three categories (provided that, at any time one rating is in category 5 and each of the other two ratings are in category 4 or better, the Applicable Rate will be determined based on category 4); and (iii) if the ratings established or deemed to have been established by Xxxxx’x, S&P and Fitch for the Index Debt shall be changed (other than as a result of a change in the rating system of Xxxxx’x, S&P or Fitch), such change shall be effective as of the date on which it is first announced by the applicable rating agency, irrespective of when notice of such change shall have been furnished by EDS to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders pursuant to Section 7.3 or otherwise.

ARTICLE II

FACILITY

SECTION 2.1. Loans. Subject to and in reliance upon the terms, conditions, representations, and warranties contained in this Agreement, each Lender, severally, and not jointly, agrees to make Advances in Permitted Loan Currencies to EDS and any of the other Borrowers, provided that no Lender shall be obligated to make an Advance which, when added to such Lender’s Credit Exposure (in the case of Credit Exposure denominated in Alternative Currencies, calculated, as of the date of such Advance, by reference to the Dollar Equivalent Value of such Credit Exposure) at such time would exceed such Lender’s Committed Sum; provided, further that, no Lender shall be obligated to make an Advance which, when added to the aggregate Credit Exposure (in the case of Credit Exposure denominated in Alternative Currencies, calculated, as of the date of such Advance, by reference to the Dollar Equivalent Value of such Credit Exposure) of all Lenders would exceed the Aggregate Committed Sum. The Administrative Agent shall maintain a record of each Lender’s Committed Sum, Percentage and Credit Exposure. Each Lender’s Commitment shall continue in full force and effect until, and expire on, the Commitment Termination Date, and no Lender shall have any obligation to make any Loan or acquire participations in Letters of Credit issued thereafter, provided that, each Borrower’s Obligations and Lender’s Rights under the Loan Documents shall continue in full force and effect until such Borrower’s Obligations are paid and performed in full. From and after the Availability Date, through and including the Commitment Termination Date, EDS and each other Borrower may borrow, repay, and reborrow Loans hereunder.

SECTION 2.2. Loan Borrowing Procedure; Disbursement.

(a) Notice of Borrowing of Loans. Each Loan shall be made following a Borrower’s Notice of Advance to the Administrative Agent requesting a Loan on a certain Borrowing Date. Each Notice of Advance shall be given to the Administrative Agent in writing or by telegraph, telex or telecopy, or by telephonic notice (followed by a written confirmation) (i) not later than 11:00 a.m., New York, New York time on the proposed Borrowing Date of each Loan which is a Base Rate Loan, which proposed Borrowing Date shall be a Business Day, (ii) not later than 11:00 a.m., New York, New York time on the Eurocurrency Business Day that is three Eurocurrency Business Days before the proposed Borrowing Date of each Loan which is a Eurodollar Loan, which proposed Borrowing Date shall be a Eurocurrency Business Day and (iii) not later than 10:00 a.m., New York, New York time on the Eurocurrency Business Day that is three Eurocurrency Business Days before the proposed Borrowing Date of each Loan which is to be a Eurocurrency Loan, which proposed Borrowing Date shall be a Eurocurrency Business Day. Each Loan shall be in an amount of not less than $5,000,000 or, if greater, an integral multiple of $1,000,000 (or, if advanced in an Alternative Loan Currency, in an amount of such currency having a Dollar Equivalent Value, on the Borrowing Date, substantially equal to $5,000,000 or a greater integral multiple of $1,000,000), except for Loans for the remaining available Aggregate Committed Sum or Loans required to

finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as contemplated by Section 2.5(e), which shall not be subject to the foregoing limitations.

(b) Funding of Loans. After receiving a Notice of Advance in the manner provided herein, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender by telephone (confirmed immediately by telex, cable or telecopy), telecopy, telex or cable of the terms of the Notice of Advance and such Lender’s Percentage of the requested Loan. Each Lender shall, (i) before 1:00 p.m., New York, New York time on the Borrowing Date specified in the Notice of Advance, deposit with the Administrative Agent at its Payment Office for Dollars, and, in same day funds, for any Loan denominated in Dollars, such Lender’s Percentage of such Loan and (ii) before 12:00 noon, New York, New York time on the Borrowing Date specified in the Notice of Advance, deposit with the Administrative Agent at its Payment Office for Alternative Currencies, and in same day funds, for any Loan denominated in any Alternative Loan Currency, such Lender’s Percentage of such Loan. Upon fulfillment of all applicable conditions set forth herein, including receipt by the Administrative Agent of a duly executed Note for each Lender from the relevant Borrower (provided, however, that EDS shall be required only to provide to each Lender a Note in the form of Exhibit E to evidence all Loans from such Lender to EDS) and after receipt by the Administrative Agent of such funds, the Administrative Agent shall pay or deliver all funds so received to the order of the relevant Borrower to the account specified in the Notice of Advance; provided that the proceeds of Loans made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.5(e) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the applicable Fronting Bank.

(c) Failure to Fund Loans. The failure of any Lender to make any Advance required to be made by it hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation to make its Advance hereunder. If any Lender fails to provide its Percentage of any Loan and if all conditions to such Loan have apparently been satisfied, the Administrative Agent will make available to the relevant Borrower the funds received by it from the other Lenders. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall be responsible for the performance by any other Lender of its obligations hereunder. Upon the failure of a Lender to make an Advance required to be made by it hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall notify EDS, the relevant Borrower (if other than EDS) and all Lenders, and shall consult with all Lenders (other than the defaulting Lender) to determine whether one or more of such Lenders will make an additional Advance to cover the shortfall created by the defaulting Lender’s failure to fund its Advance. If Lenders decline to cover such shortfall, the Administrative Agent shall use good faith efforts to obtain one or more banks, acceptable to EDS, to replace the defaulting Lender, but neither the Administrative Agent nor any other Lender shall have any liability or obligation whatsoever as a result of the failure to obtain a replacement for such Lender.

(d) Funding by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the date of any Loan that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s Percentage of such Loan, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Loan in accordance with this

Section 2.2. The Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available a corresponding amount to or on behalf of the relevant Borrower on such date. If and to the extent any Lender shall not have so made its Percentage of any Loan available to the Administrative Agent, the relevant Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to or on behalf of such Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent, at the rate per annum applicable to the Loan in question. Each Lender shall record in its records, or at its option on the schedule attached to its applicable Note, the date, amount and currency of each Loan made by such Lender thereunder, each repayment or prepayment thereof, and the dates on which each Interest Period for such Loan shall begin and end. The aggregate unpaid principal amount so recorded shall be rebuttable presumptive evidence of the principal amount owing and unpaid on such Note. The failure to so record or any error in so recording any such amount shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligations of any Borrower hereunder or under any Note to repay the principal amount of each Loan to such Lender together with all interest accruing thereon.

SECTION 2.3. Several Obligations. The failure of any Lender to perform its obligations under this Agreement shall not affect the obligations of any Borrower toward any other Lender or the obligations of any Lender toward any Borrower, nor shall any other Lender be liable for the failure of such Lender to perform its obligations under this Agreement.

SECTION 2.4. Determination of Availability. At or before thirty minutes after the time for delivery of a Notice of Advance pursuant to Section 2.2(a), and promptly after delivery of a notice requesting the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of a Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 2.5(b) (and before such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension is effective), the Administrative Agent will make a determination of the Dollar Equivalent Value of the Credit Exposure for purposes of calculating whether the making of the requested Loan, or the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of such Letter of Credit, as the case may be, would cause the Credit Exposure to exceed the Aggregate Committed Sum.

SECTION 2.5. Letters of Credit. (a) General. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein applicable to the issuance of Letters of Credit, any Borrower may request the issuance by any Fronting Bank of Letters of Credit for such Borrower’s own account, and, subject to such terms and conditions, the Fronting Bank of which such request is made shall issue promptly any requested Letter of Credit in each instance in a form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Fronting Bank, at any time and from time to time during the Availability Period. 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 a Borrower to, or entered into by a Borrower with, any Fronting Bank relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control and if any such application or other agreement contains any provisions relating to providing security for the reimbursement or other obligations of the Borrower with respect to any Letter of

Credit, such provisions shall be deemed to be without force or effect. It is understood that a Letter of Credit may recite that it is issued for the account of an EDS Subsidiary or for the account of a joint venture to which a Borrower or an EDS Subsidiary is a party; provided that any such recital shall not be construed to affect the applicable Borrower’s obligations hereunder as the account party with respect to such Letter of Credit. Unless otherwise agreed by the applicable Fronting Bank and to the extent permitted under applicable federal regulations, the face amount of a Letter of Credit shall not be less than U.S. $100,000 (or the Alternative LC Currency equivalent thereof).

(b) Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions. To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit), the requesting Borrower shall hand deliver or telecopy (or transmit by electronic communication, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the applicable Fronting Bank) to the applicable Fronting Bank and the Administrative Agent (reasonably in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension) a notice requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, and specifying the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (which shall be a Business Day), the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraph (c) of this Section), the amount and currency (which shall be a Permitted LC Currency) of such Letter of Credit, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit. If requested by the applicable Fronting Bank, the applicable Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on such Fronting Bank’s standard form in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit, provided that any such application shall be subject to the provisions of Section 2.5(a). A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended to increase the maximum amount that may be drawn under the Letter of Credit, renewed or extended only if (and upon such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, the aggregate Credit Exposure (in the case of any part of the Credit Exposure denominated in Alternative Currencies, calculated, as of the date of such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, by reference to the Dollar Equivalent Value of such Credit Exposure) will not exceed the Aggregate Committed Sum. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders of the issuance of a Letter of Credit, including the amount and currency thereof.

(c) Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the date that is thirty Business Days prior to the Commitment Termination Date.

(d) Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the applicable Fronting Bank or the Lenders, the applicable Fronting Bank hereby grants to each Lender, and each Lender hereby acquires from such Fronting Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under 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 the applicable Fronting Bank, such Lender’s Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by such Fronting Bank and not reimbursed by the applicable Borrower on the date due as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to such 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 Potential Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

(e) Reimbursement. If a Fronting Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the applicable Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent (or the Fronting Bank in the case of a reimbursement to be made in an Alternative LC Currency pursuant to Section 2.5(k)) an amount equal to such LC Disbursement as follows: (i) if such Borrower shall have received notice of such LC Disbursement prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the date such LC Disbursement is made, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on that date; or (ii) if such Borrower shall have not received notice of such LC Disbursement prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the date such LC Disbursement is made, then not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on (A) the Business Day that such Borrower receives such notice, if such Borrower receives such notice prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on such day or (B) the Business Day immediately following the Business Day such Borrower receives such notice, if such Borrower does not receive such notice prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the day of its receipt; provided that such Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.2(a) that, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, such payment be financed with a Base Rate Loan (which must be in Dollars, in compliance with paragraph (k) of this Section, if such LC Disbursement is under an Alternative Currency Letter of Credit) and, to the extent so financed, such Borrower’s obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting Base Rate Loan. If the applicable Borrower fails to make such payment when due, such Borrower shall be deemed to have made a request (including a deemed Notice of Advance) in accordance with Section 2.2(a) that, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, such payment be financed with a Base Rate Loan (which must be in Dollars, in compliance with paragraph (k) of this Section, if such LC Disbursement is under an Alternative Currency Letter of Credit) and, to the extent so financed, such LC Disbursement shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting Base Rate Loan. Solely for purposes of determining whether a Loan may be made to the Borrower as contemplated by the two immediately preceding sentences, the amount of the Credit Exposure at the time of determination shall be assumed to be reduced by the amount equal to the amount of such Credit Exposure attributable to such LC Disbursement that will be discharged and replaced by such Loan. If the applicable Borrower fails to make such payment when due and such payment is not financed in accordance with this paragraph (e) (including as a result of the failure to satisfy any condition to the making of

a Base Rate Loan requested or deemed requested as provided above), the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from such Borrower in respect thereof and such Lender’s Percentage thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent its Percentage of the payment then due from such Borrower (subject to paragraph (k) of this Section), in the same manner as provided in Section 2.2(b) and (c) with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Sections 2.2(b) and (c) shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the applicable Fronting Bank the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the applicable Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the applicable Fronting Bank or, to the extent that Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse such Fronting Bank, then to such Lenders and such Fronting Bank as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse a Fronting Bank for any LC Disbursement (other than the funding of Base Rate Loan as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the applicable Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement.

(f) Obligations Absolute. Each Borrower’s obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section 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 (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the applicable Fronting Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, such Borrower’s obligations hereunder. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Lenders nor the Fronting Banks (including the Fronting Bank that issued the relevant Letter of Credit), 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 (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), 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 the applicable Fronting Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the applicable Fronting Bank from liability to the applicable Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by each Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by any Borrower that are caused by such Fronting Bank’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof.

The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of a Fronting Bank (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), such Fronting Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, such Fronting Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.

(g) Disbursement Procedures. A Fronting Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. Such Fronting Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the applicable Borrower (in accordance with the applicable provisions of Section 11.4) by electronic mail (confirmed by telecopy) of (i) such demand for payment and whether such Fronting Bank has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder and (ii) if the notice delivered pursuant to the foregoing clause (i) is delivered prior to the day on which such LC Disbursement is made, the making of such LC Disbursement; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving any such notice shall not relieve the applicable Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such Fronting Bank and the Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(h) Interim Interest. If a Fronting Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the applicable Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that such Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to Base Rate Loans; provided that, if the applicable Borrower fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section, then Section 3.6 shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the applicable Fronting Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section to reimburse such Fronting Bank shall be for the account of such Lender in proportion to the amount of such payment.

(i) Addition or Termination of the Fronting Banks. (i) The status of any Fronting Bank as a “Fronting Bank” may be terminated at any time by mutual agreement of such Fronting Bank and EDS and notice to the Administrative Agent of such termination. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such termination of a Fronting Bank. At the time any such termination shall become effective, the applicable Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued to the effective date of such termination for the account of the terminated Fronting Bank pursuant to Section 4.3. After the termination of a Fronting Bank hereunder, the terminated Fronting Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of a

Fronting Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such termination, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.

(ii) Any Lender may become a Fronting Bank by written agreement between such Lender and EDS, subject to notice to and the consent of the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of the designation of any additional Fronting Bank hereunder.

(iii) A Fronting Bank shall not cease to be a Fronting Bank by reason of it ceasing to be a Lender.

(j) Cash Collateralization. If any Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that EDS receives notice from the Administrative Agent that the Majority Lenders have demanded the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, each Borrower shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Lenders, an amount in cash equal to the LC Exposure as of such date attributable to Letters of Credit issued for the account of such Borrower, plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Default with respect to any Borrower described in clause (f) or (g) of Section 8.1. Such deposits of cash collateral shall be made in the respective amounts and currencies that correspond to the amounts and currencies of the LC Exposure in respect of each Letter of Credit. Such deposits shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. The Administrative Agent agrees to hold such deposits in an interest bearing account. Interest on such deposits shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the Fronting Banks for LC Disbursements for which they have not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrowers for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, be applied to satisfy other obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement. If the Borrowers are required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of a Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrowers within three Business Days after all Defaults have been cured or waived.

(k) Alternative Currency Letters of Credit. The following provisions shall apply in the event of any LC Disbursement under an Alternative Currency Letter of Credit:

(i) Subject to paragraph (iii) below, the obligation of the applicable Borrower to reimburse the applicable Fronting Bank for any LC Disbursement under any Alternative Currency Letter of Credit, and to pay interest thereon, may, at the option of such Borrower, be paid in the Alternative LC Currency in which

such LC Disbursement is made directly to the applicable Fronting Bank or in Dollars to the Administrative Agent; provided that any such payment in Dollars shall be made in compliance with paragraph (iv) below.

(ii) The obligation of each Lender under paragraphs (d) and (e) of this Section to pay its Percentage of any unpaid LC Disbursement under any Alternative Currency Letter of Credit shall be payable only in Dollars and shall be in an amount equal to such Percentage of the Dollar Equivalent Value of such unreimbursed LC Disbursement determined as provided in paragraph (iv) below. Under no circumstances shall the provisions hereof permitting the issuance of Letters of Credit in an Alternative LC Currency be construed, by implication or otherwise, as imposing any obligation upon any Lender to pay a Fronting Bank its Percentage of any LC Disbursement, or to accept any payment from any Borrower in respect of any unreimbursed LC Disbursement, in any currency other than Dollars.

(iii) If and to the extent that any Lender pays its Percentage of any unreimbursed LC Disbursement under any Alternative Currency Letter of Credit, then, notwithstanding clause (i) above, the obligation of the applicable Borrower to reimburse the portion of such unreimbursed LC Disbursement funded by such Lender shall be converted to, and shall be payable only in, Dollars (in an amount equal to the Dollar amount funded by such Lender as provided above) and shall not be discharged by paying an amount in any other currency.

(iv) The amount of any payment to be made in Dollars in respect of any unreimbursed LC Disbursement under any Alternative Currency Letter of Credit (whether made by a Borrower under paragraph (i) above or by a Lender under paragraph (ii) above) shall be calculated based on the Dollar Equivalent Value of the relevant amount of the applicable Alternative LC Currency, calculated as of the date of payment. In addition, if a Fronting Bank is reimbursed in Dollars for any such LC Disbursement, then such Fronting Bank may demand payment from the applicable Borrower (by notice through the Administrative Agent) of such amount as will (in the reasonable determination of such Fronting Bank) reimburse such Fronting Bank for any loss or expense caused by the failure to receive payment in the applicable Alternative LC Currency, and such Borrower shall make such payment with 10 Business Days after receipt of such demand.

(v) Each Fronting Bank shall notify the Administrative Agent of any payment received by it in respect of the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement.

(l) Transfers of Letters of Credit to be Governed by Other Agreements. If a Borrower at whose request an outstanding Letter of Credit has been issued and the Fronting Bank issuing such Letter of Credit shall agree to enter into a bilateral letter of credit agreement to govern such Letter of Credit and the reimbursement of any disbursements made by such Fronting Bank thereunder or shall agree to treat such Letter of Credit as a letter of credit issued under an existing bilateral letter of credit agreement to which such Borrower and such Fronting Bank are parties, at close of business upon the

date set forth in a notice of such action to be given as provided herein below, such Letter of Credit shall no longer be deemed to be a Letter of Credit issued under this Agreement, the participations of the Lenders in such Letter of Credit arising under Section 2.5(d) shall be cancelled and without further force or effect, the face amount of such Letter of Credit shall cease to be a part of the LC Exposure and all of the respective rights and obligations of such Fronting Bank, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent, such Borrower, EDS, the other Borrowers and each Subsidiary Guarantor arising under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with respect to such Letter of Credit (other than those rights to receive any payment or performance in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document that have accrued prior to such time and rights to indemnification attributable to events or circumstances prior to such time) shall be terminated and this Agreement shall no longer apply to or govern such Letter of Credit. Any such action with respect to such a Letter of Credit shall not affect in any manner the rights and obligations of the parties hereto with respect to any other Letters of Credit. Such Borrower and such Fronting Bank shall give the Administrative Agent three Business Days prior notice of any such proposed action with respect to an outstanding Letter of Credit, which notice shall identify such Letter of Credit to be affected by such action, the number of such Letter of Credit, the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit, the account party for whose account such Letter of Credit was issued, the applicable Borrower, the Fronting Bank issuing such Letter of Credit, the face amount of such Letter of Credit and the date on which such Letter of Credit will cease to be as a Letter of Credit hereunder.

ARTICLE III

TERMS OF PAYMENT

SECTION 3.1. Notes. Loans and interest thereon shall be evidenced by promissory notes substantially in the form and upon the terms of Exhibit E in the case of EDS or Exhibit F in the case of any other Borrower, respectively, duly executed by the applicable Borrower (the “Notes”) and shall be due and payable in accordance with this Agreement and the terms of such Notes.

SECTION 3.2. Payments on Notes. The unpaid principal balance of each Note, and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, shall be due and payable on the Commitment Termination Date. The Administrative Agent shall deliver to each Borrower and EDS notice of each payment of interest, principal, facility fee or other payment required to be made on each Loan not less than three Business Days or Eurocurrency Business Days, as applicable, prior to the due date thereof; provided, however, that failure to provide such notice will not affect any Borrower’s Obligations hereunder. Each payment or prepayment on the Obligations and payments of fees must be paid at (i) the Administrative Agent’s Payment Office for Dollars, if the payment is due in Dollars and (ii) the Administrative Agent’s Payment Office for Alternative Currencies, if the payment is due in any currency other than Dollars, in funds which are or will be available for immediate use by Administrative Agent at such address on or before (1) 1:00 p.m., New York, New York time, on the day due, in the case of Base Rate

Loans and Eurodollar Loans and (2) 12:00 noon, New York, New York time on the day due in the case of Eurocurrency Loans. Funds received after such time shall be deemed to have been received by the Administrative Agent on the next following Business Day (in the case of Base Rate Loans) or Eurocurrency Business Day (in the case of Eurodollar Loans or Eurocurrency Loans). Amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of another Person shall be promptly remitted in like funds to such other Person. If, in the case of Base Rate Loans, any action is required or any payment is to be made on a day which is not a Business Day, then such action or payment shall be delayed until the next succeeding Business Day. If, in the case of Eurodollar Loans or Eurocurrency Loans, any action is required or any payment is to be made on a day which is not a Eurocurrency Business Day, then such action or payment shall be delayed until the next Eurocurrency Business Day unless a payment by a Borrower of a Eurodollar Loan or a Eurocurrency Loan is involved and the next Eurocurrency Business Day would fall in the succeeding calendar month, in which event such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Eurocurrency Business Day. Any extension of time shall be included in the computation of payments of interest. Upon receipt of any payment of principal or interest from a Borrower hereunder the Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed (x) like funds relating to the payment of principal or interest or facility fees ratably (other than amounts payable pursuant to Sections 3.5, 3.10, 3.11, 3.12 or 3.14) to the Lenders for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices and (y) like funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any Lender or Fronting Bank to such Lender for the account of its Applicable Lending Office or to such Fronting Bank, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon any assignment of any Lender’s Commitment pursuant to Section 11.12 and after notification thereof to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall make all payments hereunder in respect of the interest assigned thereby to the assignee.

SECTION 3.3. Interest. The Loans from day to day shall bear interest on the outstanding principal balance thereof at a rate per annum equal to the lesser of (a) the Highest Lawful Rate, or (b) (i) in the case of Base Rate Loans, the Base Rate, (ii) in the case of Eurodollar Loans, the Eurodollar Rate and (iii) in the case of Eurocurrency Loans, the Eurocurrency Rate. Accrued interest on each Loan is payable in arrears, (x) in the case of Base Rate Loans, on each Interest Payment Date, and, (y) in the case of Eurodollar Loans and Eurocurrency Loans, on the last day of each Interest Period with respect to such Loan or if occurring earlier in any case, the Commitment Termination Date; provided, however, as to any Loan having an Interest Period longer than three months, in the case of Eurodollar Loans or Eurocurrency Loans, interest shall also be payable on each day which is at an interval of three months after the first day of such Interest Period. Interest accrued on the principal of each Loan after the maturity thereof and, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, interest on other overdue amounts, shall be payable on demand. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of the rate of interest applicable to any Loan or LC Disbursement shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error and each change in the Base Rate and Highest Lawful Rate, subject to the terms hereof, will become effective, without notice to any Borrower, upon the effective date of such change.

SECTION 3.4. Continuation/Conversion with Respect to Loans.

(a) Conversion of Loans. Any Borrower may elect at any time to convert all or any part (but, if less than all, not less than $5,000,000 or any greater integral multiple of $1,000,000) of any outstanding Base Rate Loan to a Eurodollar Loan or of any outstanding Eurodollar Loan to a Base Rate Loan by giving the Administrative Agent an irrevocable notice of such election, in the form of Exhibit D hereto (the “Notice of Continuation/Conversion”) not later than 12:00 noon, New York, New York time, on the second Business Day before the date of conversion, in the case of conversion into a Base Rate Loan, or 12:00 noon, New York, New York time on the third Eurocurrency Business Day before the date of the conversion, in the case of conversion into a Eurodollar Loan, specifying the date of conversion, the type of Loan into which each such Loan or specified portion thereof shall be converted and, if a Base Rate Loan is to be converted to a Eurodollar Loan, the duration of the Interest Period applicable thereto. Any conversion pursuant to this clause (a) other than a conversion from a Base Rate Loan to a Eurodollar Loan, shall be made on the last day of an Interest Period.

(b) Continuation of Loans. Any Borrower may elect to continue (on the last day of the applicable Interest Period) any Eurodollar Loan or Eurocurrency Loan as the same type of Loan by giving the Administrative Agent an irrevocable Notice of Continuation/Conversion not later than 12:00 noon, New York, New York time, the third Eurocurrency Business Day before the last day of such Interest Period, if continuing a Eurodollar Loan or Eurocurrency Loan. The Notice of Continuation/Conversion shall specify the portion of such Loan that shall be continued and the duration of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

(c) Coordination with Interest Periods. Notwithstanding anything in clause (a) and (b) of this Section 3.4 to the contrary, but without limiting Section 3.5, each Borrower shall use its reasonable efforts to exercise its options with regard to electing to convert into or continue a Loan so that, on any date on which the Committed Sum is reduced pursuant to Section 4.3, it will not be necessary to prepay any Loan that does not have an Interest Period ending on such date.

(d) Inapplicability of Conditions Precedent. Loans continued or converted pursuant to this Section 3.4 shall not constitute new Loans for purposes of Section 5.2 hereof.

(e) Failure to Provide Notice. If no Notice of Continuation/Conversion is given with respect to any Loan prior to the time specified in this Section 3.4 or if a Notice of Continuation/Conversion is given, but it is incomplete, the Administrative Agent shall use good faith efforts to contact the relevant Borrower to obtain a Notice of Continuation/Conversion or to complete the information required thereby, but if a complete Notice of Continuation/Conversion is not provided in a timely fashion, the relevant Borrower shall be deemed to have converted such Loan, if denominated in Dollars, into a Base Rate Loan or, if a Eurocurrency Loan, to have continued such Loan as a Eurocurrency Loan having an Interest Period equivalent to the Interest Period then

ending, on the last day of the applicable Interest Period and the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the relevant Borrower of such conversion or continuation.

(f) Continuation/Conversion in Default Situations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 3.4, no Eurodollar Loan or Eurocurrency Loan may be continued as such or converted into another type of Loan when any Default exists, but on the last day of the applicable Interest Period (i) each such Eurodollar Loan shall be automatically converted to a Base Rate Loan and (ii) each such Eurocurrency Loan shall be due and payable.

SECTION 3.5. Funding Losses. If any Borrower makes any payment of principal with respect to (or a Lender is forced to assign pursuant to Section 3.17(b) hereof) any Loan, other than a Base Rate Loan, on any day other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, or if any Borrower fails to borrow or prepay any Loan after the applicable notice has been given to any Lender by the Administrative Agent or if any Borrower converts a Loan from a Eurodollar Loan at any time other than at the end of the relevant Interest Period, such Borrower shall reimburse each affected Lender, on demand, for any resulting loss or expense, including any loss incurred in obtaining, liquidating, employing or redeploying deposits or foreign currencies from third parties, for the period after any such payment, conversion, or failure to borrow, through the end of such Interest Period (the calculation of such loss or expense shall include a credit (not in excess of such loss or expense) for the interest that could be earned by such Lender as a result of redepositing or redeploying such amount), together with interest thereon at the Compensation Rate from the date of demand until paid in full, provided that, the Administrative Agent shall have delivered to such Borrower a certificate of each affected Lender as to the amount of such loss or expense, which certificate shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

SECTION 3.6. Default Rates. To the extent permitted by Law, all past-due Obligations and accrued and unpaid interest thereon and fees shall bear interest from maturity (stated or by acceleration) at a rate per annum from day to day equal to the lesser of (i) the Highest Lawful Rate or (ii) the interest rate then being charged on such Obligations or portion thereof hereunder plus two percent per annum. Any sum referred to in Section 8.1(a)(ii) not paid when due in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents shall bear interest at the Compensation Rate from the due date thereof until the earlier of (i) the date such sum is paid in full, or (ii) the date any applicable grace period expires.

SECTION 3.7. Interest and Fee Calculations. All payments of interest and fees shall be calculated on the basis of actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) elapsed during the period for which such interest or fee is payable but computed as if each calendar year consisted of 360 days, provided that the Base Rate shall be computed on the basis of a calendar year of 365 (or 366, as the case may be) days.

SECTION 3.8. Mandatory Principal Prepayments. If the Administrative Agent determines that, as a result of fluctuations in exchange rates, the Dollar Equivalent

Value of the total Credit Exposure exceeds 102% of the Aggregate Committed Sum, as reduced pursuant to Section 4.4, the Administrative Agent shall provide notice thereof to EDS and EDS (or, if no Loans are then outstanding to EDS, any other Borrower) shall make a mandatory principal prepayment, in Dollars (or, in any other Permitted Loan Currency then owing by EDS or any other Borrower), of the Loans in the amount by which the Credit Exposure exceeds the Aggregate Committed Sum within one Eurocurrency Business Day after notice from the Administrative Agent requesting such prepayment; provided that, if no Loans are outstanding or if after giving effect to the prepayment of all Loans, the Credit Exposure would continue to exceed the Aggregate Committed Sum, then the applicable Borrower or Borrowers shall cash collateralize the LC Exposure pursuant to Section 2.5(j) in the amount by which the Credit Exposure exceeds the Aggregate Committed Sum (after giving effect to prepayment of any outstanding Loans) within (x) one Business Day in the case of deposits in Dollars and (y) three Eurocurrency Business Days in the case of deposits made in Permitted LC Currencies. Any cash collateral so deposited with the Administrative Agent pursuant to the proviso to the preceding sentence shall be treated as reducing the Credit Exposure for purposes of future determinations under this Section 3.8 (but not for purposes of other provisions of this Agreement) so long as such deposits are held as cash collateral hereunder. The Administrative Agent will from time to time release to EDS any cash collateral so deposited pursuant to this Section 3.8; provided that (x) after giving effect to such release, the Dollar Equivalent Value of the Credit Exposure shall not exceed the Aggregate Committed Sum and (y) no Potential Default or Default has occurred and is continuing. Any Lender may request at any time or from time to time that the Administrative Agent determine the Dollar Equivalent Value of the Credit Exposure for purposes of evaluating whether the Dollar Equivalent Value of the Credit Exposure exceeds the Aggregate Committed Sum. The Administrative Agent shall notify such Lender and EDS of its conclusion. The Administrative Agent also agrees (a) to notify EDS of any determination by it of the Dollar Equivalent Value of the Credit Exposure pursuant to this Section and, (b) upon request by EDS, to determine such Dollar Equivalent Value and notify EDS of the amount so determined.

SECTION 3.9. Voluntary Principal Prepayments. Upon giving the Administrative Agent two Business Days’ notice, in the case of a prepayment of a Base Rate Loan, two Eurocurrency Business Days’ notice, in the case of a prepayment of a Eurodollar Loan, or three Eurocurrency Business Days’ notice, in the case of a prepayment of a Eurocurrency Loan, each Borrower shall be entitled to prepay any Loan from time to time and at any time, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty (subject, however, to the Borrowers’ other obligations hereunder in respect of funding losses and other matters), provided that (a) each partial prepayment shall equal or exceed the principal amount of (i) $5,000,000 (or the Dollar Equivalent Value thereof if such prepayment is made in any currency other than Dollars) or, if greater, an integral multiple of $1,000,000 (or the Dollar Equivalent Value thereof if such prepayment is made in any currency other than Dollars) in the aggregate for Loans or (ii) the unpaid principal balance of any Loan being prepaid in full, (b) a Borrower shall only be entitled to make a prepayment if all accrued interest on the amount prepaid (including past due interest, if any) payable hereunder shall be paid to the date of such prepayment and (c) except as otherwise set forth herein, prepayments of Eurodollar Loans or Eurocurrency Loans shall

only be made on a Eurocurrency Business Day. Prior to the Commitment Termination Date, the Loans prepaid may, subject to the conditions of this Agreement, be reborrowed hereunder, and this Agreement shall not be deemed to be terminated or canceled prior to the expiration or termination of Lenders’ Commitments solely because the Obligations may from time to time be paid in full or no LC Exposure exists.

SECTION 3.10. Inadequacy of Eurodollar or Eurocurrency Pricing. If with respect to any Interest Period for any Eurodollar Loan or any Eurocurrency Loan (i) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be binding and conclusive on all parties) that by reason of circumstances affecting the interbank eurocurrency market generally, deposits in any Permitted Loan Currency in which a Loan is then outstanding (in the applicable amounts) are not being offered to the relevant Lenders in the interbank eurocurrency market for such Interest Period or (ii) Majority Lenders advise the Administrative Agent that the Eurodollar Rate or the Eurocurrency Rate, as the case may be, will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of maintaining or funding such Eurodollar Loan or such Eurocurrency Loan for such Interest Period, and the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to EDS and all affected Borrowers and Lenders, whereupon until the Administrative Agent notifies EDS and such affected Borrowers that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, (A) the obligation of the Lenders to make Eurodollar Loans or Eurocurrency Loans in the relevant currency shall be suspended, and (B) all affected Borrowers shall either (1) repay in full the then outstanding principal amount of the affected Loans, together with accrued interest thereon, on the last day of the then-current Interest Period applicable thereto, (2) convert such affected Loans (if such affected Loans are Eurodollar Loans) to Base Rate Loans in accordance with Section 3.4 of this Agreement at the end of the then–current Interest Period applicable to such affected Loans or (3) exercise the option set forth in Section 3.17(b).

SECTION 3.11. Illegality. If, after the date of this Agreement, the adoption of any applicable Law or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Tribunal charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender or Fronting Bank with any request or directive of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency, shall make it unlawful or impossible for any Lender to make, maintain or fund its Eurodollar Loans or Eurocurrency Loans or any of them or any Fronting Bank to issue any Letter of Credit, and such Lender or Fronting Bank shall so notify the Administrative Agent, which shall notify EDS (and, if EDS shall so request, such Lender or Fronting Bank shall provide EDS with reasonable evidence of such illegality or impossibility), then, until such Lender or Fronting Bank, as the case may be, notifies EDS, via the Administrative Agent, that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, the obligation of such Lender to make Eurodollar Loans and/or Eurocurrency Loans, as the case may be, or to convert Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Loans, or of such Fronting Bank to issue any Letter of Credit, shall be suspended; provided, however, if such unlawfulness or impossibility affects only a Lender’s ability to make, maintain or fund Loans in certain currencies or a Fronting Bank’s ability to issue any Letter of Credit in certain currencies, such Lender’s or Fronting Bank’s obligations hereunder in respect of other currencies shall not be affected. Subject to the provisions of Section 3.17(a), if such Lender shall

determine that it may not lawfully continue to maintain and fund any of its outstanding Eurodollar Loans or Eurocurrency Loans or any of them to maturity and shall so specify in such notice, each affected Borrower shall immediately prepay in full the then outstanding principal amount of each such Loan together with accrued interest thereon without premium or penalty (subject, however, to the Borrowers’ other obligations hereunder in respect of funding losses and other matters), provided that, concurrently with prepaying each such Loan the affected Borrower may (i) borrow a Base Rate Loan in an equal principal amount (or, if the Loan being prepaid is denominated in a currency other than Dollars, a Base Rate Loan in the Dollar Equivalent Value of the Loan so prepaid) from such Lender or, if such circumstances affect only certain Permitted Loan Currencies borrow a Eurocurrency Loan in a Permitted Loan Currency other than the affected Permitted Loan Currency and in any amount substantially equivalent to the Loan being prepaid. Any Lender that has given a notice of unlawfulness pursuant to this Section 3.11 shall rescind such notice promptly upon the cessation of such unlawfulness by giving notice to the Administrative Agent, EDS and the affected Borrower(s).

SECTION 3.12. Increased Cost and Reduced Return.

(a) Increases in Reserve Requirements. If, after the date hereof, the adoption of any applicable Law or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Tribunal charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender (or its lending office) or any Fronting Bank with any request or directive of general applicability (whether or not having the force of Law) of any such Tribunal shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement (including any such requirement imposed by the Board, but excluding with respect to any Eurodollar Loan or Eurocurrency Loan any such requirement included in an applicable Eurocurrency Reserve Percentage) against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by such Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office) or such Fronting Bank, or shall impose on such Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office) or such Fronting Bank or on the London interbank market any other condition affecting its Eurodollar Loans, Eurocurrency Loans, its Notes evidencing such Loans or any Letter of Credit or participation therein or its obligation to make such Loans and the result of any of the foregoing is actually to increase the cost to (or to impose a cost on) such Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office) of making or maintaining any such Loan or to any Fronting Bank of issuing or maintaining, or of any Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office) of participating in, any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office) or such Fronting Bank, as the case may be, under this Agreement or under its Notes with respect thereto by an amount deemed by such Lender or Fronting Bank to be material, then, subject to the provisions of Section 3.17(a), if such Lender or Fronting Bank is generally imposing payments for increased costs on its similarly situated customers for making or maintaining similar extensions of credit, within ten Business Days after demand by such Lender or Fronting Bank, as the case may be, made via the Administrative Agent, accompanied by the certificate required by Section 3.12(c), any affected Borrower or EDS shall pay to such Lender or Fronting Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or Fronting Bank, as the case may

be, for such increased cost or reduction actually incurred by it in connection with this Agreement and EDS may reduce the Commitment of that Lender and prepay (or cause any other Borrower to prepay) Loans from that Lender without premium or penalty (subject, however, to the Borrowers’ other obligations hereunder in respect of funding losses and other matters).

(b) Capital Adequacy Rules. If, after the date hereof, the adoption or phase-in of any Law of general applicability regarding capital adequacy, or any change in existing or future Laws regarding capital adequacy, or any change in the interpretation or administration of any such Law by any Tribunal charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office or any corporation controlling such Lender) or any Fronting Bank with any request or directive of general applicability regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of Law) of any such Tribunal, shall, in the reasonable determination of any Lender or Fronting Bank, have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or Fronting Bank’s capital or on the capital of the corporation controlling such Lender or Fronting Bank as a consequence of such Lender’s obligations or such Fronting Bank’s obligations under any outstanding Letters of Credit issued by it hereunder to a level below that which such Lender or Fronting Bank or such corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, change, or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or Fronting Bank’s policies with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time if such Lender or Fronting Bank is generally imposing payments for such reduction on its similarly situated customers, within ten Business Days after demand by such Lender or Fronting Bank, as the case may be, made via the Administrative Agent, all affected Borrowers or EDS shall pay to such Lender or Fronting Bank such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or Fronting Bank, as the case may be, for such reduction, net of the savings, if any, which may be reasonably projected to be associated with any such increased capital requirement.

(c) Procedure for Claiming Compensation. Any affected Lender or Fronting Bank will promptly notify the Borrowers, via the Administrative Agent, of any event of which such Lender or Fronting Bank has knowledge, occurring after the date hereof, which will entitle such Lender or Fronting Bank to compensation pursuant to this Section 3.12 and, in the case of a Lender, will designate a different lending office if such designation will avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such compensation and will not, in the judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. A certificate of such Lender or Fronting Bank, delivered via the Administrative Agent, claiming compensation under this Section 3.12 and setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it, as well as the manner in which such amount or amounts were calculated, hereunder shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. In determining such amount, the affected Lender or Fronting Bank may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.

SECTION 3.13. Several Obligations. Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein and in the Guaranty Agreement, the obligations of the Borrowers hereunder are several and not joint and each Borrower shall be liable only in respect of Loans made

to, and Letters of Credit issued for the account of, such Borrower and the Obligations of such Borrower related thereto.

SECTION 3.14. Taxes.

(a) Payments to be Free and Clear. All payments made by any Borrowers under this Agreement shall be made, in accordance with Sections 3.2 and 3.3, free and clear of and without any deduction or withholding for or on account of any Tax (other than an Excluded Tax), by way of setoff or otherwise, except as otherwise provided by this Section 3.14 and by Section 11.15 or unless required by Law.

(b) Grossing-up of Payments. If any Borrower shall be required by Law to deduct any Tax (other than an Excluded Tax) from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to any Lender, Fronting Bank or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be):

(i) as soon as such Borrower is aware that any such deduction, withholding or payment of a Tax (other than an Excluded Tax) is required, or of any change in any such requirement, it shall notify the Administrative Agent;

(ii) the sum payable by such Borrower shall be increased to the extent necessary so that, after such Borrower has made all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section), such Lender, Fronting Bank or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made;

(iii) such Borrower shall make such deductions, or pay such Tax (other than an Excluded Tax), before any interest or penalty becomes payable or, if such Tax (other than an Excluded Tax) is paid by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or Fronting Bank, shall reimburse the Administrative Agent, such Lender or Fronting Bank (as the case may be) on demand for the amount paid by it;

(iv) such Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxing authority or other authority in accordance with applicable Law; and

(v) within thirty days after paying any such Tax (other than an Excluded Tax), the relevant Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, at its address referred to in Section 11.4, satisfactory evidence of that deduction, withholding or payment and (where remittance is required) of the remittance thereof to the relevant taxing or other authority.

(d) Indemnification. Within ten days from the date of written demand therefor from any Lender, Fronting Bank or the Administrative Agent, each Borrower will indemnify and hold harmless each Lender, Fronting Bank and the Administrative Agent from and against the full amount of Taxes (other than Excluded Taxes), including Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 3.14(d), paid by such Lender, Fronting Bank or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) and any liability, including penalties, interest and expenses, arising therefrom or with respect thereto whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally asserted by such jurisdiction, provided that any Lender or Fronting Bank receiving indemnification from any Borrower under this Section 3.14(d) shall cooperate fully with and assist such Borrower at such Borrower’s expense in any challenge or contest by such Borrower relating to such Taxes, which challenge shall be pursued at such Borrower’s expense except that Borrowers have no right hereunder to participate in the internal tax affairs of any Lender or Fronting Bank. If the Administrative Agent, a Fronting Bank or a Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrowers or with respect to which the Borrowers have paid additional sums pursuant to this Section 3.14, it shall pay over such refund to the Borrowers (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional sums paid, by the Borrowers under this Section 3.14 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses that the Administrative Agent, such Fronting Bank or such Lender incurred in connection with such refund and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Tribunal with respect to such refund); provided, that each Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, such Fronting Bank or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to that Borrower (plus any interest, from the date of Borrower’s receipt of such amount, together with penalties and charges imposed by such Tribunal with respect to such amount (but not including penalties and charges resulting from tax return positions or payments unrelated to this Agreement or to willful misconduct or gross negligence of the Administrative Agent, Fronting Bank or such Lender)), to the Administrative Agent, Fronting Bank or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent, such Fronting Bank or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Tribunal.

(e) Tax Certificates.

(i) In the event a Borrower is incorporated under the laws of the United States or a state or jurisdiction thereof, then each Lender and each Fronting Bank that is not incorporated under the laws of the United States or a State thereof shall

Each Lender and each Fronting Bank shall honor all reasonable requests from any Borrower to file or to provide such Borrower with such statements, declarations, certifications or other documentation as shall enable such Borrower to claim on behalf of such Lender or Fronting Bank a reduced rate of Tax or exemption from any Taxes, provided that no Lender or Fronting Bank shall be required to file or provide any such statement, declaration, certification or other

documentation unless (i) such Borrower shall have provided to such Lender and Fronting Bank, within a reasonable time prior to the date such Borrower wishes to receive or have such Lender or Fronting Bank file such statement or other documentation, a written request describing such statement or other documentation and, if available, a blank copy thereof with instructions for completion thereof and (ii) the information necessary for completion of such statement or other documentation is within the control of such Lender or Fronting Bank; provided, further, that any Borrower receiving any information or documentation pursuant to this Section 3.14 shall keep such information and documentation strictly confidential and disclose the same only to appropriate Tribunals in furtherance of the purposes of this Section 3.14.

SECTION 3.15. Application of Principal Payments. Each repayment or prepayment of the principal of Loans in any currency by any Borrower shall be applied (except as EDS may otherwise specify by notice to the Administrative Agent when no Default shall be continuing), to the extent of such payment, Pro Rata:

In addition to any such Dollar payment, not later than ten Business Days after demand by any Lender or Fronting Bank, made via the Administrative Agent, such

Borrower shall pay to such Lender or the Fronting Bank, via the Administrative Agent, such amount as will (in the reasonable determination of such Lender or the Fronting Bank) reimburse such Lender or the Fronting Bank for any loss or expense caused by the failure of such Borrower to make any payment in the Required Currency on the due date therefor. A statement as to any such loss or expense (including calculations thereof in reasonable detail) shall be submitted by such Lender or the Fronting Bank to the Administrative Agent and the affected Borrower, and such statement shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on such Borrower.

SECTION 3.17. Mitigation of Circumstances; Replacement of Affected Lenders.

(a) Mitigation of Circumstances. Each Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts to mitigate or avoid (i) an obligation by any Borrower to withhold or deduct any Taxes pursuant to Section 3.14, pay any amounts pursuant to Section 3.16, or pay any costs pursuant to Section 3.12 or (ii) the occurrence of any circumstances of the nature described in Section 3.10 or Section 3.11 (including by changing the office through which it has booked or funded its Commitment or any Loan or by making any other mechanical change in funding Loans), in each case prior, if possible, to the occurrence of such circumstances or the incurrence of any obligation of any Borrower to compensate such Lender for amounts payable pursuant to any such Section, provided that, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, such efforts are consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions and are not materially disadvantageous to such Lender.

(b) Replacement of Affected Lenders. At any time any Lender is affected by any condition or circumstance set forth in Sections 3.10, 3.11, 3.12 or 3.14, and so long as no Default or Potential Default exists, (i) EDS may replace such affected Lender as a party to this Agreement with one or more other bank(s), financial institution(s) or other Person(s) approved by the Administrative Agent, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld (and, upon notice from EDS and the Administrative Agent, such affected Lender shall assign, pursuant to Section 11.12, without recourse or warranty, its Commitment, its Loans, its Note(s) and all of its other rights and obligations hereunder to such replacement bank(s), other financial institution(s) or other Person(s) for a purchase price equal to the sum of the principal amount of the Loans and participations in LC Disbursements not reimbursed or repaid so assigned, all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, its ratable share of all accrued and unpaid fees, any amounts required to be reimbursed to such Lender pursuant to Section 3.5 (except to the extent paid directly by the applicable Borrower to the affected Lender) and its ratable share of the remaining unpaid Obligations owed to such affected Lender) and/or (ii) EDS may (and, if EDS replaces any affected Lender in part as provided in clause (i) above, concurrently with such replacement EDS shall) cause such affected Lender to cease to be a party hereto by terminating the Commitment of such Lender (whereupon the Aggregate Committed Sum shall be reduced by the amount of such affected Lender’s Committed Sum less any portion thereof assigned pursuant to clause (i) above) by paying, and causing any other relevant Borrower to pay, the principal amount of such affected Lender’s Loans and participations in LC Disbursements not reimbursed or repaid, all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, all accrued and unpaid commitment fees owed to such affected Lender,

any amounts required to be reimbursed to such Lender pursuant to Section 3.5 and any remaining unpaid Obligations owed to such affected Lender, in each case to the extent not assigned and purchased pursuant to clause (i) above, and such affected Lender shall thereupon cease to be a party hereto. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 3.17, EDS may not require any assignment or effect the termination of any Lender’s Commitment pursuant to this Section 3.17 if (x) such assignment or termination would conflict with any applicable Law or (y) after giving effect thereto, the Credit Exposure would exceed the Aggregate Committed Sum.

SECTION 3.18. Failure to Pay Additional Amounts. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the failure of any Borrower to pay any amount demanded by any Lender or Fronting Bank pursuant to Sections 3.5, 3.8, 3.10, 3.11, 3.12, 3.14 or 11.17 shall not be deemed to constitute a Default hereunder to the extent that such Borrower is contesting in good faith its obligations to pay such amount by ongoing discussions diligently pursued with such Lender or Fronting Bank or by appropriate proceedings; provided, however, that under no circumstances shall any such failure to pay continue for more than forty days from the date on which the related amount is demanded consistent with the terms of this Agreement, at which date such failure to pay shall become a Default.

ARTICLE IV

FEES; MODIFICATION OF COMMITMENTS

SECTION 4.1. Facility Fee. EDS will pay the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender, in Dollars, a facility fee (the “Facility Fee”) on the average daily Committed Sum of such Lender from the Availability Date through and including the Commitment Termination Date at the Applicable Rate computed on a daily basis for the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days, including the first day but excluding the last day, provided that such Facility Fee shall continue to accrue on the average daily principal amount of any Credit Exposure of such Lender outstanding in excess of such Lender’s Committed Sum from and including the date on which its Commitment terminates to but excluding the date on which such Credit Exposure ceases to be owing to such Lender. The Facility Fee will be payable quarterly in arrears on each Quarterly Date and Commitment Termination Date and the Administrative Agent shall notify EDS, not less than ten days prior to each such date, of the amount of the Facility Fee then payable, provided that any Facility Fee accruing after the Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand.

SECTION 4.2. Utilization Fee. The Borrowers agree that a utilization fee (the “Utilization Fee”) shall accrue for the account of each Lender, in Dollars, for each day on which the sum of (x) the aggregate Credit Exposure plus (y) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding loans under the Existing Three Year Credit Agreement (or any credit agreement replacing, refinancing or renewing the Existing Three Year Credit Agreement) exceeds 50.0% of (b) the sum of (x) the Aggregate Committed Sum plus (y) the aggregate commitments of all lenders under the Existing Three Year Credit Agreement (or any credit agreement replacing, refinancing or renewing the Existing

Three Year Credit Agreement). The Utilization Fee shall be calculated as an increase in the interest rate otherwise accruing in respect of the principal amount of each Loan outstanding, an increase in the interest rate otherwise used to calculate accrued interest in respect of any LC Disbursement prior to its reimbursement (or such time as the applicable LC Disbursement shall be refinanced with an Advance hereunder) or an increase in the otherwise applicable LC Participation Fee in respect of the LC Exposure, in each instance accruing on each day that the Utilization Fee is applicable and in an amount equal to the Applicable Rate computed on a daily basis for the actual number of days applicable over a year of 360 days; provided, however, accruals of the Utilization Fee in respect of Base Rate Loans shall be calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a 365-day (366-day, if applicable) year. The Utilization Fee shall be payable by the applicable Borrowers on the same dates as accrued interest or LC Participation Fees (as applicable) is payable under Section 3.3 and the Administrative Agent shall notify EDS, not less than ten days prior to each such date, of the amount of the Utilization Fee then payable. To the extent any Utilization Fee shall accrue in respect of any LC Disbursement prior to payment thereof by the applicable Borrower or such date as an Advance is made hereunder to refinance such LC Disbursement, the applicable Utilization Fee shall be payable promptly following Borrower’s receipt of written notice of the applicability and amount of such Utilization Fee.

SECTION 4.3. Letter of Credit Fees. Each Borrower agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at (A) in the case of participation fees (“Financial LC Participation Fees”) with respect to Financial Letters of Credit, the Applicable Rate with respect to Financial LC Participation Fees on the average daily amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure attributable to Financial Letters of Credit (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements), and (B) in the case of participation fees (“Performance LC Participation Fees”) with respect to Performance Letters of Credit, the Applicable Rate with respect to Performance LC Participation Fees on the average daily amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure attributable to Performance Letters of Credit (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements), in each case during the period from and including the Availability Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such Lender’s Commitment terminates and the date on which such Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure, and (ii) to each Fronting Bank a fronting fee, which shall accrue at the rate or rates per annum separately agreed upon between such Fronting Bank and EDS on the average daily amount of the LC Exposure attributable to Letters of Credit issued by such Fronting Bank (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date of termination of the Commitments and the date on which there ceases to be any LC Exposure, as well as such Fronting Bank’s standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder. LC Participation Fees and, to the extent not otherwise agreed between EDS and any applicable Fronting Bank, fronting fees accrued through and including the last day of March, June, September and December of each year shall be payable on the third Business Day following such last day, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Availability Date; provided that all such fees shall be payable on

the date on which the Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on which the Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. Any other fees payable to any Fronting Bank pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within 10 days after demand. All LC Participation Fees and, unless otherwise agreed between EDS and the applicable Fronting Bank, fronting fees shall be payable in Dollars and shall computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). For purposes of calculating LC Participation Fees, each Fronting Bank will calculate the Dollar Equivalent Value of LC Exposure attributable to Alternative Currency Letters of Credit issued by it that are outstanding during any month based on the relevant exchange rate determined at the beginning of such month and notify the Administrative Agent on a monthly basis of such Dollar Equivalent Value. For purposes of calculating fronting fees, fronting fees of each Fronting Bank will be calculated on the same basis unless otherwise agreed by a Fronting Bank.

SECTION 4.4. Reduction or Cancellation of Commitments. Upon three Business Days’ prior written and irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent, EDS may from time to time permanently reduce in whole or in part the Aggregate Committed Sum, provided that, any reduction in part must be in the amount of at least $5,000,000 or a greater integral multiple of $1,000,000; provided, further, that no such notice may be given or become effective at any time when a Notice of Advance is outstanding; provided, further, that no such reduction shall cause the Aggregate Committed Sum to be less than the total Credit Exposure at the time. Any such reduction shall be effective as of the date set forth in the notice and shall reduce the Committed Sum of each Lender in proportion to each Lender’s Percentage unless such reduction shall be made pursuant to Section 3.17. Any reduction in the Aggregate Committed Sum shall have no effect upon any Loans or LC Exposure then outstanding hereunder.

RIGHTS AND REMEDIES UPON DEFAULT

Should a Default (other than a Default under Section 8.1(f) or (g) with respect to any Borrower) exist, the Majority Lenders may, at their election, do any one or more of the following without notice of any kind, including notice of acceleration or of intention to accelerate, presentment and demand or protest, all of which are hereby expressly waived by each Borrower: (a) declare or instruct the Administrative Agent to declare (in which case the Administrative Agent shall declare) the entire unpaid balance of the Obligations, or any part thereof, immediately due and payable, whereupon it shall be due and payable; (b) terminate all or any portion of their Commitments hereunder (and thereupon such Commitments shall terminate immediately); (c) reduce any claim to judgment; (d) exercise the Rights of offset or banker’s lien against the interest of each Borrower and Subsidiary Guarantor in and to every account and other property of any Borrower or Subsidiary Guarantor which are in the possession of any Lender to the extent of the full amount of the Obligations;

and (e) exercise any and all other legal or equitable Rights afforded by the Loan Documents or applicable Laws, as the Majority Lenders shall deem appropriate. Should a Default under Section 8.1(f) or (g) exist with respect to a Borrower, the Commitments shall automatically terminate and the unpaid balance of the Obligations accrued hereunder shall automatically become due and payable, without notice of any kind, including notice of acceleration or of intention to accelerate, presentment and demand or protest, all of which are hereby expressly waived by each Borrower.

SECTION 9.2. Waivers by Borrower and Others. EDS, and by its acceptance of the benefits hereunder, each other Borrower, each Subsidiary Guarantor and each surety, endorser, guarantor, and other party ever liable for payment of any of the Obligations, jointly and severally, waive notice, presentment, demand for payment, protest, notice of intention to accelerate, notice of acceleration, and notice of protest and nonpayment, and agree that their liability with respect to the Obligations, or any part thereof, shall not be affected by any renewal or extension in the time of payment of the Obligations, by any indulgence, or by any release or change in any security for the payment of the Obligations, and hereby consent to any and all renewals, extensions, indulgences, releases, or changes, regardless of the number thereof.

SECTION 9.3. Delegation of Duties and Rights. Each Lender may perform any of its duties or exercise any of its Rights under the Loan Documents by or through its officers, directors, employees, attorneys, agents, or other representatives.

SECTION 9.4. Lenders Not in Control. None of the covenants or other provisions contained in this Agreement shall, or shall be deemed to, give the Lenders the Right or power to exercise control over the affairs or management of any Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor, the power of the Lenders being limited to the Rights of creditors generally and the Right to exercise the remedies provided in this Article IX.

SECTION 9.5. Cumulative Remedies. The Rights provided for in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are cumulative and not intended to be exclusive of any other Right given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise.

SECTION 9.6. Expenditures by Lenders. Following any Default hereunder, all court costs, reasonable attorneys’ fees, other costs of collection, and other sums spent by any Lender pursuant to the exercise of any Right (including any effort to collect or enforce the Notes) provided herein shall be payable by the Borrowers to such Lender on demand, shall become part of the Obligations, and shall bear interest at a rate per annum that is two percent above the Base Rate from the date spent until the date repaid.

SECTION 9.7. Performance by Administrative Agent. Should EDS or any other Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor fail to perform any covenant, duty, or agreement contained herein or in any of the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent, after giving ten days’ notice to EDS and such Borrower or Subsidiary Guarantor, may, but shall not be obligated to, perform or attempt to perform such covenant, duty, or

agreement on behalf of such Borrower. In such event, such Borrower or such Subsidiary Guarantor shall, at the request of the Administrative Agent promptly pay any amount expended by the Administrative Agent in such performance or attempted performance to the Administrative Agent at the Payment Office for Dollars together with interest thereon at the default rate from the date of such expenditure until paid. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is expressly understood that neither the Administrative Agent nor the Lenders assume any liability or responsibility for the performance of any duties of any Borrower or Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents or other control over the management and affairs of any Borrower or Subsidiary Guarantor, nor by any such action shall the Administrative Agent or the Lenders be deemed to create a partnership arrangement with any Borrower or Subsidiary Guarantor.

ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

SECTION 10.1. Appointment and Authorization. Each Lender and Fronting Bank hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action on its behalf and to exercise such powers under the Loan Documents as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. With respect to its Committed Sum and the Loans made by it, the Notes issued to it, the Letters of Credit issued by it and the participations in Letters of Credit acquired by it, the Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender or Fronting Bank and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent; and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include the Administrative Agent in its capacity as a Lender. The Administrative Agent and its affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of, and generally engage in any kind of business with, any of Borrowers, any Subsidiary Guarantor or any of their respective Affiliates and any Person which may do business with any of Borrowers, any Subsidiary Guarantor or any of their respective Affiliates, all as if the Administrative Agent were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to Lenders.

SECTION 10.2. Note Holders. The Administrative Agent may treat the payee of any Note as the holder thereof until written notice of transfer shall have been filed with it signed by such payee and in form satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 10.3. Consultation with Counsel. The Lenders agree that the Administrative Agent may retain legal counsel, accountants and other professionals and may consult with such professionals selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or suffered in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such professionals.

SECTION 10.4. Documents. The Administrative Agent shall not be under a duty to examine or pass upon the validity, effectiveness, enforceability, genuineness or value of any of the Loan Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto or in connection therewith and the Administrative Agent shall

be entitled to assume that the same are valid, effective, enforceable and genuine and what they purport to be.

SECTION 10.5. Resignation or Removal of Administrative Agent. Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent as provided below, the Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving thirty days’ prior written notice thereof to the Lenders, the Fronting Banks, EDS and the other Borrowers. Upon any such resignation, the Majority Lenders shall have the right, subject to the consent of EDS (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), to appoint a successor. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Majority Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Fronting Banks, appoint a successor Administrative Agent. 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 hereunder. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between EDS and such successor. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article X and Section 11.16 shall continue in effect for its benefit and the benefit of its agents, attorneys-in-fact and Related Parties in respect to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as Administrative Agent.

SECTION 10.6. Responsibility of Administrative Agent. It is expressly understood and agreed that the obligations of the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents are only those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents and that the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to assume that no Default exists and shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default, unless and until the Administrative Agent receives written notice from a Borrower or from a Lender that such Borrower or Lender considers that a Default exists and specifying the nature thereof. The Lenders recognize and agree that the Administrative Agent has no responsibility for confirming the accuracy of any statements made by any Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor, or to inspect the property, including the books and financial records, of any Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor, and in disbursing funds to the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent may rely fully upon statements contained in the relevant Notice of Advance. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it under or in connection with the Loan Documents, except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. In the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, the Administrative Agent shall incur no liability under or in respect of any of the Loan Documents by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate, warranty or other paper or instrument believed by it to be genuine or authentic or to be signed by the proper party or parties, or with respect to anything which it may do or refrain from doing in the reasonable exercise of its judgment, or which may seem to it to be necessary or desirable in the premises.

The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible to the Lenders for, or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any recitals, statements, representations or warranties contained in or made in connection with this Agreement, any other Loan Document or in any certificate or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by any Lender under, this Agreement, (ii) the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any document referred to or provided for herein, (iii) any failure by the Borrowers or the Subsidiary Guarantors to perform any of their obligations hereunder or thereunder or (iv) other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent, the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article V or elsewhere herein.

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 EDS or any of the EDS Subsidiaries 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 be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon.

The Administrative Agent may employ and perform any and all of its duties and exercise any and all of its rights and power by or through agents and attorneys-in-fact and shall not be answerable, except as to money or securities received by it or its authorized agents, for the negligence or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care. The Administrative Agent and any such agent or attorney-in-fact may perform any and all of its duties and exercise any and all of its rights and powers through its respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such agents, attorneys-in-fact and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such agents, attorneys-in-fact, 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.

The relationship between the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders is only that of agent and principal, has no fiduciary aspects and imposes no implied duties on the Administrative Agent, regardless of whether a Potential Default has occurred and is continuing, and the Administrative Agent’s duties hereunder are acknowledged to be only ministerial and not involving the exercise of discretion on its part. Nothing in this Agreement or elsewhere contained shall be construed to impose on the Administrative Agent any duties or responsibilities other than those for which express provision is herein made. In performing its duties and functions hereunder, the Administrative Agent does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed, and hereby expressly disclaims, any obligation or responsibility toward or any relationship of agency or trust with or for the Borrowers and the Subsidiary Guarantors. As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement (including enforcement or

collection of the Notes), the Administrative Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Majority Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 11.9) and such instructions shall be binding upon all Lenders and all holders of Notes and all Fronting Banks; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action which exposes the Administrative Agent to personal liability or which is contrary to this Agreement, any other Loan Document or applicable law.

SECTION 10.7. Notices of Default. In the event that the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice of any Default or any Potential Default from any Borrower or any Lender or Fronting Bank, the Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice thereof to Lenders.

SECTION 10.8. Independent Investigation. Each of the Lenders and Fronting Banks severally represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent that it has made its own independent investigation and assessment of the financial condition and affairs of EDS, the other Borrowers and the Subsidiary Guarantors in connection with the making and continuation of its participation in the Loans and Letters of Credit hereunder and has not relied on any information provided to such Lender or Fronting Bank by the Administrative Agent in connection herewith, and each Lender and Fronting Bank represents, warrants and undertakes to the Administrative Agent that it shall continue to make its own independent appraisal of the creditworthiness of EDS, the other Borrowers and the Subsidiary Guarantors while the Loans or Letters of Credit are outstanding or while it has any obligation to make Loans or issue or participate in Letters of Credit hereunder to the Borrowers.

SECTION 10.9. Indemnification of Administrative Agent. The Lenders agree to pay the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by Borrowers), Pro Rata, (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, the Co-Agents and their respective Affiliates, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent, in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation and administration of the Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), and (ii) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with the Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit. The Lenders further agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Related Party of the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by Borrowers), Pro Rata, (each such Person being called an “Agent Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Agent Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and

disbursements of any counsel for any Agent Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Agent Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any Loan or the use of the proceeds therefrom or Letters of Credit, (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by EDS or any of the EDS Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to EDS or any EDS Subsidiary, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Agent Indemnitee is a party thereto, provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Agent Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Agent Indemnitee.

SECTION 10.10. Agents and Co-Agents. None of the Lenders (other than the Administrative Agent) identified on the cover page or signature pages of this Agreement as an “agent,” or a “co-agent” shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty, including any fiduciary duty, under this Agreement other than those applicable to all Lenders as such. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any of the Lenders so identified in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder.

SECTION 10.11. Benefit of Article X. The agreements contained in this Article X are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and Lenders, and are not for the benefit of, or to be relied upon by, the Borrowers or any third party.

All covenants, agreements, undertakings, representations, and warranties made in any of the Loan Documents shall survive all closings under the Loan Documents and, except as otherwise indicated, shall not be affected by any investigation made by any party. The provisions of Sections 3.5, 3.12, 3.14(d) and 11.16 and Article X shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment or assignment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any provision hereof.

SECTION 11.7. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND ALL OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (OTHER THAN THE CONFLICT OF LAWS PROVISIONS THEREOF), EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THAT FEDERAL LAWS MAY APPLY.

SECTION 11.8. Maximum Interest Rate. Regardless of any provision contained in any of the Loan Documents, no Lender shall ever be entitled to contract for, charge, take, reserve, receive, or apply, as interest on the Obligations, or any part thereof, any amount in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate, and, in the event any Lender ever contracts for, charges, takes, reserves, receives, or applies as interest any such excess, it shall be deemed a partial prepayment of principal and treated hereunder as such and any remaining excess shall be refunded to the relevant Borrower. In determining whether or not the interest paid or payable, under any specific contingency, exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, the Borrowers and the Lenders shall, to the maximum extent permitted under applicable Law, (a) treat all Advances as but a single extension of credit (and the Lenders and the Borrowers agree that such is the case and that provision herein for multiple Advances and for one or more Notes is for convenience only), (b) characterize any nonprincipal payment as an expense, fee, or premium rather than as interest, (c) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (d) “spread” the total amount of interest throughout the entire contemplated term of the Obligations, provided that, if the Obligations is paid and performed in full prior to the end of the full contemplated term thereof, and if the interest received for the actual period of existence thereof exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, any Lender receiving such excess interest shall refund such excess, and, in such event, such Lender shall not be subject to any penalties provided by any Laws for contracting for, charging, taking, reserving, or receiving interest in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate. To the extent the Laws of the State of Texas are applicable for purposes of determining the “Highest Lawful Rate,” such term shall mean the “weekly ceiling” from time to time in effect under Chapter 303 of the Texas Finance Code, as amended.

SECTION 11.9. ENTIRETY AND AMENDMENTS. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS BY THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO

UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents embody the entire agreement between the Borrowers and the Lenders and supersedes all prior proposals, agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof. The Borrowers certify that they are relying on no representation, warranty, covenant or agreement except for those set forth herein and the other Loan Documents of even date herewith. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be amended, or the provisions hereof waived, only by an instrument in writing executed jointly by an authorized officer of EDS (or, in the case of an amendment to the Guaranty Agreement or other Loan Document, to the extent applicable, by an authorized officer of EDS, each Subsidiary Guarantor and each Designated EDS Affiliate affected by such amendment) and the Majority Lenders or the Administrative Agent, acting with consent of the Majority Lenders, and supplemented only by documents delivered or to be delivered in accordance with the express terms hereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, no change in the Loan Documents or waiver of the provisions thereof which has the effect of (a) extending the maturity or decreasing the amount of any payment on any Notes or payment of any fee or any amount payable in respect of an LC Disbursement, (b) decreasing any rate or amount of or postponing any scheduled payment of interest or other sums payable to any Lender under the Loan Documents, (c) changing the definition of the term “Majority Lenders”, (d) amending or waiving Section 5.2 or 11.9 or (e) discharging any guarantor, except as explicitly provided in the Guaranty Agreement, shall be effective absent the concurrence of all Lenders. No increase to the Committed Sum of any Lender, no extension of the Commitment Termination Date of any Lender and no imposition of any additional obligations upon any Lender, except as expressly provided herein, shall be effective without the consent of such Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no change in the Loan Documents or waiver of the provisions thereof shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent or any Fronting Bank hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent or such Fronting Bank, as the case may be. EDS and the Administrative Agent may, from time to time and at any time, enter into an amendment hereof, for the purpose of adding as a Lender hereunder any commercial lending institution.

SECTION 11.10. Waivers. The acceptance by Lenders at any time and from time to time of partial payment on the Obligations shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any Default or Potential Default then existing. No failure to exercise and no delay on the part of the Lenders or the Fronting Banks or their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives or attorneys in exercising any Right under this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any Right under this Agreement or any other Loan Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other Right. Any waiver or consent allowed hereunder and in conformity with the provisions hereof shall be effective only in the specific instance to which it relates and for the purpose for which it is given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or Advance or the issuance, amendment or renewal of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default or Potential Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Fronting Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default or Potential Default at the time.

SECTION 11.11. Multiple Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of identical counterparts, and by different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original for all purposes and all of which constitute, collectively, one Agreement; but, in making proof of this Agreement, it shall not be necessary to produce or account for more than one such counterpart. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy or other electronic transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

SECTION 11.12. Parties Bound; Participations and Assignments.

(a) Successors and Assigns. This Agreement is binding upon, and inures to the benefit of, each Lender, each Fronting Bank, each Borrower, and their respective successors and assigns (including any Affiliate of any Fronting Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), provided that, unless otherwise permitted by this Section 11.12, no Lender may transfer, pledge, assign, sell participations in or otherwise encumber its Commitment or Loans hereunder; provided further that, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the Borrowers shall not have any right to assign their rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of the Lenders (and any attempted assignment or transfer by any Borrower without such consent shall be null and void).

(b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it and participations in Letters of Credit held by it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) of:

(A) EDS, provided that no consent of EDS shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund or, if a Default has occurred and is continuing, any other assignee;

(B) the Administrative Agent, provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment of any Commitment to an assignee that is a Lender immediately prior to giving effect to such assignment; and

(ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions:

(A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans and participations in Letters of Credit held by it, the amount of the Commitment or Loans and participations in Letters of Credit held by it of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance, substantially in the form of

Exhibit H (an “Assignment and Acceptance”) with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000 or a greater integral multiple of $1,000,000 unless each of EDS and the Administrative Agent otherwise consents, provided that no such consent of EDS shall be required if a Default has occurred and is continuing;

(B) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement;

(C) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500, provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the assigning Lender is being replaced in accordance with Section 3.17(b), EDS shall pay the processing and recordation fee of $3,500 to the Administrative Agent.; and

(D) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an administrative questionnaire in a form approved by the Administrative Agent.

For the purpose of this Section 11.12(b), the term “Approved Fund” has the following meaning:

“Approved Fund” means any Person (other than a natural person) that is engaged in making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business and that is administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an Affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender.

(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.5, 3.10, 3.11, 3.12, 3.14 and 11.16). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 11.12 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section.

(iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of EDS and the other Borrowers, shall maintain at one of its offices 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 Commitment and Credit Exposure of, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Fronting Banks and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by EDS, any Fronting Bank and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. The Administrative Agent shall upon request provide a copy of the Register to EDS.

(v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed administrative questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

(c) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of EDS and the Administrative Agent or any Fronting Bank sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it and its participations in Letters of Credit), provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Fronting Banks 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. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the fifth sentence of Section 11.9 that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section, EDS agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.5, 3.10, 3.11, 3.12 and 3.14 with respect to its participation in the Commitment and the Loans outstanding from time to time as if it were a Lender to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 11.19 as though it were a

Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 11.19 as though it were a Lender.

(ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.10, 3.11, 3.12 or 3.14 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with EDS’s prior written consent. A Participant shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.14 unless EDS is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of EDS, to comply with Section 3.14 as though it were a Lender.

(d) Within five Business Days after its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance, together with an execution copy of each replacement Note, the applicable Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent in exchange for the surrendered Note or Notes such replacement Note or Notes, duly executed, and payable to the order of the applicable assignee in an amount equal to the amount assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance and, if the assigning Lender has retained a portion of the Obligations hereunder, a replacement Note or Notes to the order of the assigning Lender in an amount equal to the portion of the Obligations retained by it hereunder. Such replacement Note or Notes shall be in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of such surrendered Note or Notes, shall be dated the effective date of such Assignment and Acceptance and shall otherwise be in substantially the form of the surrendered Note or Notes.

(e) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest, provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

SECTION 11.13. CONSENT TO JURISDICTION; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THE BORROWERS HEREBY AGREE THAT ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING AGAINST THE BORROWERS WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, THE NOTES, THE LETTERS OF CREDIT, OR ANY JUDGMENT ENTERED BY ANY COURT IN RESPECT THEREOF, MAY BE BROUGHT IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN, OR IN THE UNITED STATES COURTS LOCATED IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK, BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN AS THE MAJORITY LENDERS IN THEIR SOLE DISCRETION MAY ELECT AND THE BORROWERS HEREBY SUBMIT TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS FOR THE PURPOSE OF ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING. THE BORROWERS HEREBY AGREE THAT SERVICE OF ALL WRITS, PROCESS AND SUMMONSES IN ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN THE STATE OF

NEW YORK MAY BE MADE UPON PROCESS AGENT AT ITS ADDRESS AS SET FORTH IN SECTION 11.4 (AS SUCH ADDRESS MAY BE CHANGED FROM TIME TO TIME) AND EACH OF THE BORROWERS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY APPOINTS PROCESS AGENT AS ITS TRUE AND LAWFUL ATTORNEY-IN-FACT IN THE NAME, PLACE AND STEAD OF SUCH BORROWER TO ACCEPT SUCH SERVICE OF ANY AND ALL SUCH WRITS, PROCESS AND SUMMONSES, AND AGREES THAT THE FAILURE OF THE PROCESS AGENT TO GIVE ANY NOTICE OF SUCH SERVICE OF PROCESS TO IT SHALL NOT IMPAIR OR AFFECT THE VALIDITY OF SUCH SERVICE OR OF ANY JUDGMENT BASED THEREON. THE BORROWERS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY CONSENT TO THE SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN SAID COURTS BY THE MAILING THEREOF BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY LENDER BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL, POSTAGE PREPAID, TO THE BORROWERS’ ADDRESS SET FORTH IN SECTION 11.4 HEREOF. EACH BORROWER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTIONS WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY NOTE BROUGHT IN THE COURTS LOCATED IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK, BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN, AND HEREBY FURTHER IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY CLAIM THAT ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM. EACH BORROWER HEREBY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, THE NOTES OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, WHICH WAIVER IS INFORMED AND VOLUNTARY.

SECTION 11.14. Invalid Provisions. If any provision of any of the Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable under present or future laws during the term of this Agreement, such provision shall be fully severable; such Loan Document shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part of such Loan Document; and the remaining provisions of such Loan Document shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected by the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision or by its severance from such Loan Document. Furthermore, in lieu of each such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision there shall be added as part of such Loan Document a provision mutually agreeable to the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Majority Lenders as similar in terms to such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible and be legal, valid and enforceable. In the event the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Majority Lenders are unable to agree upon a provision to be added to the Loan Document in question within a period of ten Business Days after a provision of any Loan Document is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, then a provision acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Majority Lenders as similar in terms to the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision as is possible and be legal, valid and enforceable shall be added automatically to such Loan Document. In either case, the effective date of the

added provision shall be the date upon which the prior provision was held effectively to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable.

SECTION 11.15. Borrowers’ Right of Offset.

(a) Offset Against Accounts. Each of Lenders and the Borrowers hereby agree, with respect to the Obligations, that, automatically and without any action by or notice to the Borrowers, upon the occurrence of the appointment of a conservator or receiver for a Lender or, if a Lender’s deposits are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation on the date of an Advance by such Lender, the termination of federal deposit insurance of such Lender’s deposits by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or any successor thereto, each Borrower’s unpaid payment obligations under the Obligations, including any unpaid principal and interest thereunder, shall be offset, Dollar for Dollar, against any and all funds of such Borrower on deposit with such Lender in any and all accounts which such Borrower maintains at such Lender in the name of such Borrower, whether individually, or jointly with any of its Affiliates, and which have not been previously pledged to a party other than such Lender (the “Section 11.15 Accounts”). The Section 11.15 Accounts shall in such circumstance be applied against the Obligations in such order as each Borrower elects or, if no such election is made, in such order as the Lender or the entity applying such Section 11.15 Accounts elects.

(b) Lender Representations. Each Lender whose deposits are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation represents and warrants that the execution of this Agreement by such Lender and the obligations herein undertaken by it have been approved in compliance with applicable regulations of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.

SECTION 11.16. Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver. (a) EDS shall pay (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, the Co-Agents and their respective Affiliates, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent, in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation and administration of the Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by each Fronting Bank in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder and (iii) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, any Fronting Bank or any Lender, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent, any Fronting Bank or any Lender in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with the Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit.

(b) EDS shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each Fronting Bank and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons and their respective successors and assigns (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by any Fronting Bank to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by EDS or any of the EDS Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to EDS or any EDS Subsidiary, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto, provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee.

(c) To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Borrower shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof.

(d) All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than 10 days after written demand therefor.

SECTION 11.17. Designation of EDS Subsidiaries as Borrowers; Additional Existing Letters of Credit. EDS may, at any time or from time to time, supplement or amend Schedule 2 hereto to add an EDS Subsidiary directly or indirectly wholly owned by EDS thereto or to delete a Designated EDS Affiliate therefrom by delivering to the Administrative Agent a revised Schedule 2 together with (a) in the case of an addition of an EDS Subsidiary, a certificate executed by the Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer or Assistant Treasurer of EDS stating that the guaranty by EDS and the Subsidiary Guarantors of the obligations of such EDS Subsidiary may reasonably be expected to benefit, directly or indirectly, EDS and such Subsidiary Guarantors, (b)(i) in the case of the addition of an EDS Subsidiary, a Borrower Addition Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto pursuant to which such EDS Subsidiary agrees to be bound by the terms hereof and a supplement to the Guaranty Agreement in the form of Exhibit 2 thereto pursuant to which such EDS Subsidiary agrees to be bound by the terms thereof applicable to it as a Borrower hereunder or (ii) in the case of the

deletion of a Designated EDS Affiliate, a Borrower Termination Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit I hereto, (c) in the case of the addition of an EDS Subsidiary, an Officers’ Certificate of such EDS Subsidiary dated the date of such Borrower Addition Agreement and such supplement to the Guaranty Agreement and signed by the Secretary or Assistant Secretary of such entity, certifying as to (i) the articles or certificate of incorporation (or equivalent organizational documents) and all amendments thereto of such EDS Subsidiary as of such date (and certified by the secretary of state (or equivalent officer) of the jurisdiction of organization of such entity as of a recent date), (ii) bylaws (or equivalent organizational documents), (iii) resolutions and (iv) incumbency of all officers of such EDS Subsidiary who will be authorized to execute or attest to any Loan Document substantially in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and (d) in the case of the addition of an EDS Subsidiary, an Officers’ Certificate of each of EDS Information Services L.L.C. and EDS Properties Corporation, to the extent such entities remain party to the Guaranty Agreement at such time and such an Officers’ Certificate has not prior to such date been delivered to the Administrative Agent, dated on or prior to the date of such Borrower Addition Agreement and signed by the Secretary or Assistant Secretary of such entities, certifying as to the authority of each of EDS Information Services L.L.C. and EDS Properties Corporation to Guarantee the Obligations of such additional EDS Subsidiary. The Administrative Agent may conclusively rely on the certificate delivered pursuant to clause (c) of the immediately preceding sentence until it shall receive a further certificate canceling or amending the prior certificate and submitting the signatures of the officers named in such further certificate.

At any time, EDS may supplement Schedule 3 to this Agreement by providing written notice to the Administrative Agent designating additional letters of credit issued by one or more Lenders as Existing Letters of Credit, to the extent such Lenders shall have been, or concurrently therewith are, designated as Fronting Banks in accordance with Section 2.5(i); provided that (a) any such notice shall indicate the amount, currency and expiration date of each such letter of credit to which such notice applies, (b) the applicable Lenders that issued such letters of credit shall have consented to such designation and (c) the conditions set forth in Sections 2.5(b) and (c) and 5.2 are satisfied with respect to such designation (determined as though each letter of credit so designated were being issued as a Letter of Credit hereunder on the date of such designation). Upon receipt of any such supplement to Schedule 3 from EDS, and subject to satisfaction of the conditions set forth or referred to in the preceding sentence, the letters of credit designated therein shall be deemed to constitute Letters of Credit hereunder as though issued hereunder on the date of such receipt by the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall notify each of the Lenders of the inclusion of such additional Existing Letters of Credit under this Facility and each of the Lenders shall be deemed to have acquired a participation in such additional Existing Letters of Credit in accordance with Section 2.5 as of the date of such notice.

SECTION 11.18. Judgment Currency.

(a) If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or under the Notes from a currency (the “Original Currency”) into another currency (the “Other Currency”), the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the Original Currency with the Other Currency at its office in London, England on the second Eurocurrency Business Day preceding the day on which final judgment is given.

(b) The obligation of any Borrower in respect of any sum due in the Original Currency from it to any Lender or the Administrative Agent hereunder or under the Note held by such Lender shall, notwithstanding any judgment in any Other Currency, be discharged only if and to the extent that on the Eurocurrency Business Day following receipt by such Lender or the Administrative Agent of any sum adjudged to be so due in such Other Currency such Lender or the Administrative Agent may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase such amount of the Original Currency with such Other Currency at its office in London, England which the Administrative Agent could have purchased on the second Eurocurrency Business Day preceding the day on which the final judgment referred to in Section 11.18(a) is given; if the amount of the Original Currency so purchased is less than the amount of the Original Currency which the Administrative Agent could have purchased on the second Eurocurrency Business Day preceding the day on which such final judgment is given, such Borrower agrees, as a separate Obligations and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Lender or the Administrative Agent against such difference, and if the amount of the Original Currency so purchased exceeds the amount of the Original Currency which the Administrative Agent could have purchased on the second Eurocurrency Business Day preceding that on which such final judgment is given, such Lender or the Administrative Agent agrees to remit to such Borrower such excess.

SECTION 11.19. Lenders’ Right of Setoff; Payments Set Aside; Sharing of Payments.

(a) Right of Setoff. Should a Default exist, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of a Borrower against any and all of the obligations of such Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement and the Notes, irrespective of whether or not demand shall have been made under this Agreement or any such Note and although such obligations may be unmatured. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify any affected Borrower after any such setoff and application made by such Lender or one of its Affiliates, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The rights of each Lender and each of its Affiliates under this Section 11.19 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender or Affiliate may have.

(b) Payments Set Aside. To the extent that EDS or any other Borrower makes a payment or payments to a Lender or a Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or setoff or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other person under any Debtor Relief Law or equitable cause, then, to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all rights and remedies therefor, shall be revived and shall continue in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

(c) Sharing of Payments. If any Lender or Fronting Bank shall obtain any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of setoff, or otherwise) on account of the Loans or LC Disbursements made by it (other than costs or losses paid pursuant to Sections 3.5, 3.10 or 3.12) in excess of its ratable share of payments on account of the Loans or LC Disbursements obtained by all the Lenders or Fronting Banks, such Lender or Fronting Bank shall forthwith purchase from the other Lenders or Fronting Banks such participations in the Loans or Letters of Credit made by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender or Fronting Bank to share the excess payment ratably with each of them, provided, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender or Fronting Bank, such purchase from each Lender or Fronting Bank shall be rescinded and such Lender or Fronting Bank shall repay to the purchasing Lender or Fronting Bank the purchase price to the extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to such Lender’s or Fronting Bank’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Lender’s or Fronting Bank’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender or Fronting Bank) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender or Fronting Bank in respect of the total amount so recovered. EDS and each Borrower agrees that any Lender or Fronting Bank so purchasing a participation from another Lender or Fronting Bank pursuant to this Section 11.19(c) may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of setoff) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender or Fronting Bank were the direct creditor of the applicable Borrower or Borrowers in the amount of such participation.

SECTION 11.20. Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential and to use such Information only for the purposes permitted herein), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority, (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party to this Agreement, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee

of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to any of the Borrowers and its obligations, (g) with the consent of EDS or (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than EDS. For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from EDS relating to EDS or its business, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by EDS, provided that, in the case of information received from EDS after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders also agrees to use the Information (other than Information referred to in clause (h) of the preceding paragraph) only in connection with (i) extensions of credit to EDS and the EDS Subsidiaries or (ii) evaluating the credit of EDS and the EDS Subsidiaries in connection with the provision of other commercial banking services to EDS and the EDS Subsidiaries.

L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrower in accordance with the Act.
