The credit ratings to be utilized for purposes of this Schedule are the ratings assigned to
outstanding senior unsecured long-term debt securities of the Company without third party credit
support. Ratings assigned to any obligation of the Company which is secured or which has the
benefit of third party credit support shall be disregarded.
The Applicable Margin shall be determined in accordance with the foregoing table based on the
Company’s Status as determined from its then-current Moody’s and S&P Ratings. The credit rating in
effect on any date for the purposes of this Schedule is that in effect at the close of business on

shall exist. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at any time there exists a difference between the
Xxxxx’x Rating and the S&P Rating, the rating corresponding to the higher of the two ratings shall
apply; provided, however, that if the difference is greater than one level, the
Status shall be determined based upon the rating one level above the lower of the two ratings.
