ARTICLE II

The Credits

SECTION 2.01. Commitments to Lend. On the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, each Bank severally agrees to lend to the Borrower, from time to time during the Revolving Credit Period, amounts not to exceed in the aggregate at any one time outstanding the amount of such Bank’s Commitment. Each Borrowing under this Section 2.01 shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $15,000,000 or any larger multiple of $1,000,000 (except that any such Borrowing may be in the

aggregate amount of the unused Commitments) and shall be made from the several Banks ratably in proportion to their respective Commitments. Within the foregoing limits, the Borrower may borrow under this Section, repay, or to the extent permitted by Section 2.12, prepay Loans and reborrow at any time during the Revolving Credit Period under this Section. Failure by any Bank to make Loans as required under the terms of this Agreement will not relieve any other Bank of its obligations hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Money Market Loans made by a Bank shall be deemed usage of the total Commitments for the purpose of availability, but shall not reduce such Bank’s obligation to lend its pro rata share of its Commitment.

SECTION 2.02. Notice of Committed Borrowings. The Borrower shall give the Agent notice (a “Notice of Committed Borrowing”) not later than 10:30 A.M. (New York City time) on (x) the date of each Base Rate Borrowing and (y) the third Euro-Dollar Business Day before each Euro-Dollar Borrowing, specifying:


	(a) the date of such Borrowing, which shall be a Domestic Business Day in the case of a Base Rate Borrowing and a Euro-Dollar Business Day in the case of a Euro-Dollar Borrowing,


	(b) the aggregate amount of such Borrowing,

	(c) whether the Loans comprising such Borrowing are to be Base Rate Loans or Euro-Dollar Loans, and

	(d) in the case of a Euro-Dollar Borrowing, the duration of the initial Interest Period applicable thereto, subject to the provisions of the definition of Interest Period.

SECTION 2.03. Money Market Borrowings. (a) The Money Market Option. In addition to Committed Loans pursuant to Section 2.01, the Borrower may, as set forth in this Section, request the Banks from time to time during the Revolving Credit Period to make offers to make Money Market Loans to the Borrower. The Banks may, but shall have no obligation to, make such offers and the Borrower may, but shall have no obligation to, accept any such offers in the manner set forth in this Section.

(b) Money Market Quote Request. When the Borrower wishes to request offers to make Money Market Loans under this Section, it shall transmit to the Agent by telex or facsimile transmission a Money Market Quote Request substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto so as to be received no later than 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) on (x) the fourth Euro-Dollar Business Day prior to the date of Borrowing proposed therein, in the case of a LIBOR Auction or (y) the Domestic Business Day next preceding the date of Borrowing proposed therein, in the case of an Absolute Rate Auction (or, in either case, such other time or date as the Borrower and the Agent shall have mutually agreed upon and shall have notified to the Banks not later than the date of the Money Market Quote Request for the first LIBOR Auction or

Absolute Rate Auction for which such change is to be effective) specifying:


	(i) the proposed date of Borrowing, which shall be a Euro-Dollar Business Day in the case of a LIBOR Auction or a Domestic Business Day in the case of an Absolute Rate Auction,

	(ii) the aggregate amount of such Borrowing, which shall be $15,000,000 or a larger multiple of $1,000,000,

	(iii) the duration of the Interest Period applicable thereto, subject to the provisions of the definition of Interest Period, and

	(iv) whether the Money Market Quotes requested are to set forth a Money Market Margin or a Money Market Absolute Rate.

The Borrower may request offers to make Money Market Loans for more than one Interest Period in a single Money Market Quote Request. No Money Market Quote Request shall be given within five Euro-Dollar Business Days (or following notice to each of the Banks, such other number of days as the Borrower and the Agent may agree upon) of any other Money Market Quote Request.

(c) Invitation for Money Market Quotes. Promptly upon receipt of a Money Market Quote Request, the Agent shall send to the Banks by telex or facsimile transmission an Invitation for Money Market Quotes substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto, which shall constitute an invitation by the Borrower to each Bank to submit Money Market Quotes offering to make the Money Market Loans to which such Money Market Quote Request relates in accordance with this Section.

(d) Submission and Contents of Money Market Quotes. (i) Each Bank may submit a Money Market Quote containing an offer or offers to make Money Market Loans in response to any Invitation for Money Market Quotes. Each Money Market Quote must comply with the requirements of this subsection (d) and must be submitted to the Agent by telex or facsimile transmission at its offices specified in or pursuant to Section 9.01 not later than (x) 9:30 A.M. (New York City time) on the third Euro-Dollar Business Day prior to the proposed date of Borrowing, in the case of a LIBOR Auction, or (y) 9:30 A.M. (New York City time) on the proposed date of Borrowing, in the case of an Absolute Rate Auction (or, in either case, such other time or date as the Borrower and the Agent shall have mutually agreed and shall have notified to the Banks not later than the date of the Money Market Quote Request for the first LIBOR Auction or Absolute Rate Auction for which such change is to be effective); provided that Money Market Quotes submitted by the Agent (or any Affiliate of the Agent) in the capacity of a Bank may be submitted, and may only be submitted, if the Agent or such Affiliate notifies the Borrower of the terms of the offer or offers contained therein not later than (x) 9:15 A.M. (New York City time) on the third Euro-Dollar Business Day prior to the proposed date of Borrowing,

in the case of a LIBOR Auction or (y) 9:15 A.M. (New York City time) on the proposed date of Borrowing, in the case of an Absolute Rate Auction. Subject to Articles III and VI, any Money Market Quote so made shall be irrevocable except with the written consent of the Agent given on the instructions of the Borrower.


(ii) Each Money Market Quote shall be in substantially the form of Exhibit D hereto and shall in any case specify:

	(A) the proposed date of Borrowing,

	(B) the principal amount of the Money Market Loan for which each such offer is being made, which principal amount (x) may be greater than or less than the Commitment of the quoting Bank, (y) must be $15,000,000 or a larger multiple of $1,000,000 and (z) may not exceed the principal amount of Money Market Loans for which offers were requested,

	(C) in the case of a LIBOR Auction, the margin above or below the applicable London Interbank Offered Rate (the “Money Market Margin”) offered for each such Money Market Loan, expressed as a percentage (rounded to the nearest 1/10,000th of 1%) to be added to or subtracted from such base rate,

	(D) in the case of an Absolute Rate Auction, the rate of interest per annum (rounded to the nearest 1/10,000th of 1%) (the “Money Market Absolute Rate”) offered for each such Money Market Loan, and

	(E) the identity of the quoting Bank.

A Money Market Quote may set forth up to five separate offers by the quoting Bank with respect to each Interest Period specified in the related Invitation for Money Market Quotes.

(iii) Any Money Market Quote shall be disregarded if it:


	(A) is not substantially in conformity with Exhibit D hereto or does not specify all of the information required by subsection (d)(ii);

	(B) contains qualifying, conditional or similar language;

	(C) proposes terms other than or in addition to those set forth in the applicable Invitation for Money Market Quotes; or

	(D) arrives after the time set forth in subsection (d)(i).

(e) Notice to Borrower. The Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower of the terms (x) of any Money Market Quote submitted by a Bank that is in accordance with subsection (d) and

(y) of any Money Market Quote that amends, modifies or is otherwise inconsistent with a previous Money Market Quote submitted by such Bank with respect to the same Money Market Quote Request. Any such subsequent Money Market Quote shall be disregarded by the Agent unless such subsequent Money Market Quote is submitted solely to correct a manifest error in such former Money Market Quote. The Agent’s notice to the Borrower shall specify (A) the aggregate principal amount of Money Market Loans for which offers have been received for each Interest Period specified in the related Money Market Quote Request, (B) the respective principal amounts and Money Market Margins or Money Market Absolute Rates, as the case may be, so offered (including the names of the Banks) and (C) if applicable, limitations on the aggregate principal amount of Money Market Loans for which offers in any single Money Market Quote for any Interest Period may be accepted.

(f) Acceptance and Notice by Borrower. Not later than 10:30 A.M. (New York City time) on (x) the third Euro-Dollar Business Day prior to the proposed date of Borrowing, in the case of a LIBOR Auction or (y) the proposed date of Borrowing, in the case of an Absolute Rate Auction (or, in either case, such other time or date as the Borrower and the Agent shall have mutually agreed upon and shall have notified to the Banks not later than the date of the Money Market Quote Request for the first LIBOR Auction or Absolute Rate Auction for which such change is to be effective), the Borrower shall notify the Agent of its acceptance or non-acceptance of the offers so notified to it pursuant to subsection (e). In the case of acceptance, such notice (a “Notice of Money Market Borrowing”) shall specify the aggregate principal amount of offers for each Interest Period that are accepted. The Borrower may accept any Money Market Quote for any Interest Period in whole or in part; provided that:

(i) the aggregate principal amount of each Money Market Borrowing may not exceed the applicable amount set forth in the related Money Market Quote Request,

(ii) the principal amount of each Money Market Borrowing must be $15,000,000 or a larger multiple of $1,000,000,

(iii) acceptance of offers may only be made on the basis of ascending Money Market Margins or Money Market Absolute Rates, as the case may be, and

(iv) the Borrower may not accept any offer that is described in subsection (d)(iii) or that otherwise fails to comply with the requirements of this Agreement.

(g) Allocation by Agent. If offers are made by two or more Banks with the same Money Market Margins or Money Market Absolute Rates, as the case may be, for a greater aggregate principal amount than the amount in respect of which such offers are accepted for the related Interest Period, the principal amount of Money Market Loans in respect of which such offers are accepted shall be allocated by the Agent among such Banks as nearly as possible (in multiples of such number, not greater than

$1,000,000 as the Agent may deem appropriate) in proportion to the aggregate principal amounts of such offers. Determinations by the Agent of the pro rata amounts of Money Market Loans shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

SECTION 2.04. Notice to Banks; Funding of Loans. (a) Upon receipt of a Notice of Borrowing, the Agent shall promptly notify each Bank of the contents thereof and of such Bank’s share (if any) of such Borrowing and such Notice of Borrowing shall not thereafter be revocable by the Borrower.

(b) Not later than 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the date of each Borrowing, each Bank participating therein shall make available its share of such Borrowing, in Federal or other funds immediately available in New York City, to the Agent at its address specified in or pursuant to Section 9.01. Unless the Agent determines that any applicable condition specified in Article III has not been satisfied, the Agent will make the funds so received from the Banks available to the Borrower at the Agent’s aforesaid address.

(c) Unless the Agent shall have received notice from a Bank prior to the date of any Borrowing that such Bank will not make available to the Agent such Bank’s share of such Borrowing, the Agent may assume that such Bank has made such share available to the Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with subsection (b) of this Section 2.04 and the Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Bank shall not have so made such share available to the Agent, such Bank and the Borrower severally agree to repay to the Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Agent, at (i) in the case of the Borrower, a rate per annum equal to the higher of the Federal Funds Rate and the interest rate applicable thereto pursuant to Section 2.09 and (ii) in the case of such Bank, the Federal Funds Rate. If such Bank shall repay to the Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so repaid shall constitute such Bank’s Loan included in such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement.

SECTION 2.05. Evidence of Debt. (a) Each Bank shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Bank resulting from each Loan made by such Bank, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Bank from time to time hereunder.

(b) The Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the Commitment of each Bank and the amount of each Loan made hereunder by such Bank, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Bank hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Agent hereunder for the accounts of the Banks and each Bank’s share thereof.

(c) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 2.05 shall be evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein and shall be presumptively correct absent demonstrable error; provided that the failure of the Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(d) Any Bank may request in writing that Loans made by it be evidenced by a Note. In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Bank a Note payable to the order of such Bank in the form of Exhibit A. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such Note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 9.05) be represented by one or more Notes in such form payable to the order of the payee named therein.

(e) Each Bank agrees that it will cancel and return to the Borrower all Notes then held by it upon the earlier of (i) the Termination Date (or, in the case of any Note or Notes evidencing Term Loans, the Term-Out Maturity Date); provided that no Default shall have then occurred and be continuing or (ii) the date such Bank’s Commitment has been terminated and there are no Loans outstanding to or accrued interest owing to such Bank.

SECTION 2.06. Maturity of Loans. (a) The Committed Loans of each Bank shall mature, and the principal amount thereof shall be due and payable, together with accrued interest thereon, on the Termination Date (or, in the case of Term Loans, the Term-Out Maturity Date).

(b) Each Money Market Loan shall mature, and the principal amount thereof shall be due and payable, together with accrued interest thereon, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Money Market Loan.

SECTION 2.07. Termination or Reduction of Commitments. (a) The Commitments of each Bank shall terminate on the Termination Date.

(b) During the Revolving Credit Period the Borrower may, upon at least three Domestic Business Days’ notice to the Agent, terminate the Commitments at any time, if no Loans are outstanding at such time.

(c) During the Revolving Credit Period the Borrower may, upon at least three Domestic Business Days’ notice to the Agent, ratably reduce the Commitments from time to time by an aggregate amount of $10,000,000 or any larger multiple of $1,000,000, but only to the extent that the aggregate amount of the Commitments exceeds the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Loans.

SECTION 2.08. Increase in Commitments. (a) During the Revolving Credit Period, the Borrower may, by written notice to the Agent (which shall promptly deliver a copy to each of the

Banks), request at any time or from time to time that the total Commitments be increased; provided that (i) the aggregate amount of all such increases pursuant to this Section shall not exceed $75,000,000, (ii) the Borrower shall offer each Bank the opportunity to increase its Commitment by its Applicable Percentage of the proposed increased amount, and (iii) each Bank, in its sole discretion, may either (A) agree to increase its Commitment by all or a portion of the offered amount or (B) decline to increase its Commitment. Any such notice shall set forth the amount of the requested increase in the total Commitments and the date on which such increase is requested to become effective. In the event that the Banks shall have agreed to increase their Commitments by an aggregate amount less than the increase in the total Commitments requested by the Borrower, the Borrower may arrange for one or more banks or other financial institutions (any such bank or other financial institution being called an “Augmenting Bank”), which may include any Bank, to extend Commitments or increase its existing Commitments in an aggregate amount equal to the unsubscribed amount; provided that (i) each Augmenting Bank, if not already a Bank hereunder, shall be subject to the approval of the Agent (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) and (ii) each Augmenting Bank, if not already a Bank hereunder, shall become a party to this Agreement by completing and delivering to the Agent a duly executed accession agreement in a form satisfactory to the Agent and the Borrower. Increases and new Commitments created pursuant to this paragraph (a) shall become effective on the date specified in the notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to the first sentence of this paragraph. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no increase in the total Commitments (or in the Commitment of any Bank) shall become effective under this paragraph unless, (i) on the date of such increase, the conditions set forth in clauses (b) and (d) of Section 3.02 shall be satisfied (as though a Borrowing were being made on such date) and the Agent shall have received a certificate to that effect dated such date and executed by a Responsible Financial Officer of the Borrower, and (ii) the Agent shall have received (to the extent requested by the Agent reasonably in advance of such date) documents consistent with those delivered under clauses (c) and (d) of Section 3.01 as to the corporate power and authority of the Borrower to borrow hereunder and as to the enforceability of this Agreement after giving effect to such increase.

(b) At the time that any increase in the total Commitments pursuant to paragraph (a) above (a “Commitment Increase”) becomes effective, if any Committed Loans are outstanding, the Borrower shall prepay in accordance with Section 2.12 the aggregate principal amount of all Committed Loans outstanding (the “Initial Loans”); provided that (i) nothing in this Section shall prevent the Borrower from funding the prepayment of Initial Loans with concurrent Borrowings hereunder in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, giving effect to the Commitment Increase, and (ii) no such prepayment shall be required if, after giving effect to the Commitment Increase, each Bank has the same Applicable Percentage as immediately prior to such Commitment Increase.

SECTION 2.09. Interest Rates. (a) Each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for each day from the date such Loan is made until it becomes due, at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate Margin plus the Base Rate for such day. Such interest shall be payable for each Interest Period on the earlier of (i) the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto or (ii) the Termination Date (or, in the case of Term Loans, the Term-Out Maturity Date). Any overdue principal of and, to the extent permitted by law, overdue interest on any Base Rate Loan shall bear interest, payable on demand, for each day until paid at a rate per annum equal to the sum of 2% plus the Base Rate Margin plus the Base Rate for such day.

The “Base Rate Margin” applicable to any Base Rate Loan outstanding on any day, subject to paragraph (c) of this Section, means:


	(i) if such day falls within a Level I Period, Level II Period, Level III Period or Level IV Period, then 0%;

	(ii) if such day falls within a Level V Period, then 0.400%;

	(iii) if such day falls within a Level VI Period, then 0.700%; and

	(iv) if such day falls within a Level VII Period, then 1.250%.

(b) Each Euro-Dollar Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for each Interest Period applicable thereto, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Euro-Dollar Margin plus the applicable London Interbank Offered Rate. Such interest shall be payable for each Interest Period on the earlier of (i) the last day thereof, (ii) three months after the initial date thereof and, if such Interest Period is longer than three months, at intervals of three months thereafter or (iii) the Termination Date (or, in the case of Term Loans, the Term-Out Maturity Date).

“Euro-Dollar Margin” applicable to any Euro-Dollar Loan outstanding on any day, subject to paragraph (c) of this Section, means: (A) if Usage on such day is less than or equal to 33%:


	(i) if such day falls within a Level I Period, then 0.400%;

	(ii) if such day falls within a Level II Period, then 0.500%;

	(iii) if such day falls within a Level III Period, then 0.725%;

	(iv) if such day falls within a Level IV Period, then 0.825%;


	(v) if such day falls within a Level V Period, then 1.150%;

	(vi) if such day falls within a Level VI Period, then 1.450%; and

	(vii) if such day falls within a Level VII Period, then 2.000%; or

	(vi) if such day falls within a Level VI Period, then 1.700%; and

	(vii) if such day falls within a Level VII Period, then 2.250%.

The “London Interbank Offered Rate” applicable to any Interest Period means the rate per annum (rounded upwards, if necessary, to the nearest 1/32 of 1%) appearing on the Moneyline Telerate Screen page 3750 (or any successor page) as the London interbank offered rate for deposits in U.S. dollars at 11:00 A.M. (London time) two Euro-Dollar Business Days before the first day of such Interest Period for a period equal to such Interest Period; provided that, if for any reason such rate is not available, the term “London Interbank Offered Rate” applicable to any Interest Period shall mean the rate per annum (rounded upwards, if necessary, to the nearest 1/32 of 1%) appearing on Reuters Screen LIBO Page (or any successor page) as the London interbank offered rate for deposits in U.S. dollars at approximately 11:00 A.M. (London time) two Euro-Dollar Business Days before the first day of such Interest Period for a period equal to such Interest Period; provided, however, if more than one rate is specified on Reuters Screen LIBO Page (or any successor page), the applicable rate shall be the arithmetic mean of all such rates.

(c) After the Termination Date, the Base Rate Margin or Euro-Dollar Margin applicable to any Term Loan shall be increased by either (i) 0.500%, during any period that the Borrower’s commercial paper is rated A-2 or better by S&P and P-3 or better by Xxxxx’x, or (ii) 1.000%, during any period that the

Borrower’s commercial paper is not rated A-2 or better by S&P and P-3 or better by Xxxxx’x; provided that if S&P or Xxxxx’x changes its rating system after the date hereof, the new rating of such rating agency that most closely corresponds to the level specified above for such rating agency shall be substituted for such level.

(d) Any overdue principal of and, to the extent permitted by law, overdue interest on any Euro-Dollar Loan shall bear interest, payable on demand, for each day from and including the date payment thereof was due to but excluding the date of actual payment, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of 2% plus the Euro-Dollar Margin plus the higher of (i) the London Interbank Offered Rate applicable to such Loan and (ii) the average (rounded upward, if necessary, to the next higher 1/100 of 1%) of the respective rates per annum at which one day (or, if such amount due remains unpaid more than three Euro-Dollar Business Days, then for such other period of time not longer than three months as the Agent may select) deposits in dollars in an amount approximately equal to such overdue payment due to the Agent are offered to the Agent in the London interbank market for the applicable period determined as provided above (or, if the circumstances described in Section 8.01 shall exist, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of 2% plus the Base Rate Margin plus the Base Rate for such day).

(e) Subject to clause (y) of Section 8.01, each Money Market LIBOR Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for the Interest Period applicable thereto, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the London Interbank Offered Rate for such Interest Period plus (or minus) the Money Market Margin quoted by the Bank making such Loan in accordance with Section 2.03. Each Money Market Absolute Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for the Interest Period applicable thereto, at a rate per annum equal to the Money Market Absolute Rate quoted by the Bank making such Loan in accordance with Section 2.03. Such interest shall be payable for each Interest Period on the earlier of (i) the last day thereof, (ii) three months after the initial date thereof and, if such Interest Period is longer than three months, at intervals of three months thereafter or (iii) the Termination Date. Any overdue principal of and, to the extent permitted by law, overdue interest on any Money Market Loan shall bear interest, payable on demand, for each day until paid at a rate per annum equal to the sum of 2% plus the Base Rate Margin plus the Base Rate for such day.

(f) The Agent shall determine (in accordance with this Agreement) each interest rate applicable to the Loans hereunder. The Agent shall give prompt notice to the Borrower by telecopy and the participating Banks by telex, cable or telecopy of each rate of interest so determined, and its determination thereof shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

SECTION 2.10. Fees. (a) Facility Fee. The Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the account of the Banks, ratably in proportion to their Commitments (or, if the Commitments have

terminated, ratably in proportion to their outstanding Loans), a facility fee at the rate of (i) 0.100% per annum during each Level I Period, (ii) 0.125% per annum during each Level II Period, (iii) 0.150% per annum during each Level III Period, (iv) 0.175% per annum during each Level IV Period, (v) 0.225% per annum during each Level V Period, (vi) 0.300% during each Level VI Period and (vii) 0.500% during each Level VII Period. Such facility fee shall accrue (i) from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the last day of the Revolving Credit Period, in each case, on the daily average aggregate amount of the Commitments (whether used or unused) and (ii) if any Loans remain outstanding after the Revolving Credit Period (including any Term Loans), from and including the last day of the Revolving Credit Period to but excluding the date such Loans shall be repaid in full, on the daily average aggregate outstanding principal amount of such Loans.

(b) Payments. Except as otherwise indicated, accrued facility fees under this Section 2.10 shall be payable quarterly in arrears on (i) each Quarterly Date, (ii) the Termination Date and (iii) if any Loans remain outstanding after the Revolving Credit Period, the date such Loans shall be repaid in full; provided that accrued facility fees on outstanding Term Loans shall constitute additional interest on such Loans and shall be payable at the times that accrued interest thereon is payable under this Agreement.

SECTION 2.11. Method of Electing Interest Rates. (a) The Loans included in each Committed Borrowing shall bear interest initially at the type of rate specified by the Borrower in the applicable Notice of Committed Borrowing. Thereafter, the Borrower may from time to time elect to change or continue the type of interest rate borne by each Group of Loans (subject in each case to the provisions of Article VIII), as follows:


	(i) if such Loans are Base Rate Loans, the Borrower may elect to convert such Loans to Euro-Dollar Loans as of any Euro-Dollar Business Day; and

	(ii) if such Loans are Euro-Dollar Loans, the Borrower may (x) elect to convert such Euro-Dollar Loans to Base Rate Loans as of any Domestic Business Day, (y) elect to convert such Euro-Dollar Loans to Euro-Dollar Loans with an Interest Period different from the then current Interest Period applicable to such Loans as of any Euro-Dollar Business Day or (z) elect to continue such Loans as Euro-Dollar Loans for an additional Interest Period beginning on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to such Loans;

provided that, if the Borrower elects to convert any Euro-Dollar Loans to Base Rate Loans or to Euro-Dollar Loans with a different Interest Period, as of any day other than the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to such Loans, the Borrower shall reimburse each Bank in accordance with Section 2.14.

Each such election shall be made by delivering a notice (a “Notice of Interest Rate Election”) to the Agent (i) at least one Domestic Business Day before such notice is to be effective if the relevant Loans are to be converted into Base Rate Loans or (ii) at least three Euro-Dollar Business Days before such conversion or continuation is to be effective if such Loans are to be converted into, or continued as, Euro-Dollar Loans.

A Notice of Interest Rate Election may, if it so specifies, apply to only a portion of the aggregate principal amount of the relevant Group of Loans; provided that (i) such portion is allocated ratably among the Loans comprising such Group and (ii) the portion to which such Notice applies, and the remaining portion to which it does not apply, are each $15,000,000 or any larger multiple of $1,000,000.

(b) Each Notice of Interest Rate Election shall specify:


	(i) the Group of Loans (or portion thereof) to which such notice applies;


	(ii) the date on which the conversion or continuation selected in such notice is to be effective, which shall comply with the applicable clause of subsection (a) above;

	(iii) whether such Group of Loans (or portion thereof) is to be converted to Base Rate Loans or Euro-Dollar Loans or continued as Euro-Dollar Loans for an additional Interest Period; and

	(iv) if such Loans (or portions thereof) are to be converted to or continued as Euro-Dollar Loans, the duration of the Interest Period to be applicable thereto immediately after such conversion or continuation.

Each Interest Period specified in a Notice of Interest Rate Election shall comply with the provisions of the definition of Interest Period.

(c) Upon receipt of a Notice of Interest Rate Election from the Borrower pursuant to subsection (a) above, the Agent shall promptly notify each Bank of the contents thereof and such notice shall not thereafter be revocable by the Borrower. If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Notice of Interest Rate Election to the Agent for any Euro-Dollar Loans, such Loans shall be converted into Base Rate Loans on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable thereto.

SECTION 2.12. Prepayments. (a) The Borrower may (i) upon notice to the Agent to be received no later than 10:30 A.M. (New York City time), prepay the Base Rate Loans (or any Money Market LIBOR Loans which bear interest at the Base Rate at such time for the reason stated in Section 8.01), in whole or in part, on any Domestic Business Day and (ii) upon at least two Euro-Dollar Business Days’ notice to the Agent, prepay any Euro-Dollar Loan, in whole or in part, in amounts aggregating

$15,000,000 or any larger multiple of $1,000,000, by paying the principal amount to be prepaid together with accrued interest thereon to the date of prepayment; provided that a Money Market Loan may not be prepaid without the prior written consent of the Bank that holds such Money Market Loan, other than as contemplated by clause (i) above. Each such optional prepayment shall be applied to prepay ratably the relevant Loans of the several Banks. Prepayment of a Euro-Dollar Loan on any day other than the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto shall be subject to Section 2.14.

(b) Upon receipt of a notice of prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.12, the Agent shall promptly notify each Bank of the contents thereof and of such Bank’s ratable share (if any) of such prepayment and such notice shall not thereafter be revocable by the Borrower.

SECTION 2.13. General Provisions as to Payments. (a) The Borrower shall make each payment of principal of, and interest on, the Loans and of fees hereunder, not later than 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the date when due, in Federal or other funds immediately available in New York City, to the Agent at its address referred to in its Administrative Questionnaire. The Agent will promptly distribute to each Bank its ratable share of each such payment received by the Agent for the account of the Banks. Whenever any payment of principal of, or interest on, any Base Rate Loans or fees shall be due on a day which is not a Domestic Business Day, the date for payment thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Domestic Business Day. Whenever any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Euro-Dollar Loans and Money Market LIBOR Loans shall be due on a day which is not a Euro-Dollar Business Day, the date for payment thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Euro-Dollar Business Day unless such Euro-Dollar Business Day falls in another calendar month or falls after the Termination Date (or, in the case of Term Loans, the Term-Out Maturity Date), in which case the date for payment thereof shall be the next preceding Euro-Dollar Business Day. Whenever any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Money Market Absolute Rate Loans shall be due on a day which is not a Euro-Dollar Business Day, the date for payment thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Euro-Dollar Business Day. If the date for any payment of principal is extended by operation of law or otherwise, interest thereon shall be payable for such extended time.

(b) Unless the Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Banks hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment in full to the Agent on such date and the Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each Bank on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Bank. If and to the extent that the Borrower shall not have so made such payment, each Bank shall repay to the Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Bank together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is

distributed to such Bank until the date such Bank repays such amount to the Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate.

SECTION 2.14. Funding Losses. If the Borrower makes any payment of principal with respect to any Fixed Rate Loan or any Fixed Rate Loan is converted to a Base Rate Loan (pursuant to Section 2.11, Section 2.12, Article VI or Article VIII) on any day other than the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto or the end of an applicable period fixed pursuant to Section 2.09(d), or if any Bank assigns any Fixed Rate Loan as required by Section 8.06 on any day other than the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto, or if the Borrower fails to borrow or prepay any Fixed Rate Loan after notice has been given to any Bank in accordance with Section 2.04(a) or Section 2.12, the Borrower shall reimburse each Bank within 15 days after demand for any resulting loss or expense incurred by it (or by an existing or prospective Participant in the related Loan), including (without limitation) any loss reasonably incurred in obtaining, liquidating or employing deposits from third parties, but excluding loss of margin for the period after such payment or conversion or assignment or failure to borrow or prepay; provided that such Bank shall have delivered to the Borrower a certificate as to the amount of such loss or expense with an explanation of the calculation of such loss or expense, which certificate shall be conclusive if made reasonably and in good faith.

SECTION 2.15. Computation of Interest and Fees. Interest based on the Prime Rate hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year) and paid for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). All other interest and facility fees hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and paid for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

SECTION 2.16. Regulation D Compensation. For each day for which a Bank is required to maintain reserves in respect of either (x) “Eurocurrency Liabilities” (as defined in all regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System) or (y) any other category of liabilities which includes deposits by reference to which the interest rate in Euro-Dollar Loans is determined or any category of extensions of credit or other assets which includes loans by a non-United States office of any Bank to United States residents, such Bank may require the Borrower to pay, contemporaneously with each payment of interest on the Euro-Dollar Loans, additional interest on the related Euro-Dollar Loan of such Bank at a rate per annum determined by such Bank up to but not exceeding the excess of (i) (A) the applicable London Interbank Offered Rate divided by (B) one minus the Euro-Dollar Reserve Percentage over (ii) the applicable London Interbank Offered Rate. Any Bank wishing to require payment of such additional interest (x) shall so notify the Borrower and the Agent, in which case such additional interest on the Euro-Dollar Loans of such Bank shall be payable to such Bank at the place indicated in such notice with respect to each Interest Period commencing at least five Euro-Dollar Business Days after the giving of such notice and (y) shall notify the

Borrower at least five Euro-Dollar Business Days prior to each date on which interest is payable on the Euro-Dollar Loans of the amount then due to such Bank under this Section. Such Bank’s notice to the Borrower shall set forth its calculation of such additional interest and such calculation shall be conclusive if made reasonably and in good faith.

SECTION 2.17. Term-Out Option. The Borrower may, upon written notice to the Agent on a date that is prior to the Termination Date, elect that all Committed Loans outstanding on the Termination Date remain outstanding after the Termination Date as Term Loans maturing on the Term-Out Maturity Date; provided that any such election shall be subject to the satisfaction, on the Termination Date, of the conditions set forth in clauses (b) and (d) of Section 3.02 (as though a Borrowing were being made on such date) and to the receipt by the Agent on the Termination Date of a certificate to that effect dated such date and executed by a Responsible Financial Officer of the Borrower. The Agent will notify the Banks of such election promptly following receipt by the Agent of any such notice. Notwithstanding any such election, all Commitments will terminate on the Termination Date, and additional Borrowings will not be permitted after the Termination Date. This Section 2.17 shall not apply to Money Market Loans, which must be repaid on or prior to the Termination Date. After the Termination Date, any Term Loans outstanding as a result of the exercise by the Borrower of its rights under this Section shall continue to constitute “Loans” and “Committed Loans” for all purposes of this Agreement.

SECTION 5.08. Compliance with Laws. The Borrower will comply, and will cause its Consolidated Subsidiaries to

comply, in all material respects with all applicable laws, except where any failure to comply therewith would not individually or collectively have a material adverse effect on the Borrower’s ability to perform its obligations hereunder, and except where necessity of compliance therewith is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings; provided, however, that with respect to compliance with ERISA, this Section 5.08 applies to the Borrower and its Consolidated Subsidiaries only in their respective capacities as employers and not in any other capacity (such as a fiduciary or service provider to Plans for the benefit of employers of others).

(i) any person or group of persons (within the meaning of Section 13 or 14 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as

amended) shall have acquired beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under said Act) of more than 35% of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Borrower; or at any time Continuing Directors shall not constitute a majority of the board of directors of the Borrower;

(j) one or more judgments for the payment of money in an aggregate amount in excess of $50,000,000 (or its equivalent in any other currency) shall be rendered against the Borrower, any Consolidated Subsidiary or any combination thereof and the same shall remain undischarged for a period of 60 consecutive days during which execution shall not be effectively stayed, or any action shall be legally taken by a judgment creditor to levy upon assets or properties of the Borrower or any Consolidated Subsidiary to enforce any such judgment; or

(k) a Reportable Event or Reportable Events, or a failure to make a required installment or other payment (within the meaning of Section 412(n)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code), shall have occurred with respect to any Plan or Plans that reasonably could be expected to result in liability of the Borrower to the PBGC or to a Plan in an aggregate amount exceeding $50,000,000 and, within 30 days after the reporting of any such Reportable Event to the Agent, the Agent shall have notified the Borrower in writing that (i) the Required Banks have made a determination that, on the basis of such Reportable Event or Reportable Events or the failure to make a required payment, there are reasonable grounds (A) for the termination of such Plan or Plans by the PBGC, (B) for the appointment by the appropriate United States District Court of a trustee to administer such Plan or Plans or (C) for the imposition of liens in an amount exceeding $25,000,000 in favor of a Plan and (ii) as a result thereof an Event of Default exists hereunder; or a trustee shall be appointed by a United States District Court to administer any such Plan or Plans; or the PBGC shall institute proceedings to terminate any Plan or Plans;

then, and in every such event, the Agent shall (i) if requested by Banks having more than 50% in aggregate amount of the Commitments, by notice to the Borrower terminate the Commitments and they shall thereupon terminate, and (ii) if requested by Banks holding more than 50% in aggregate principal amount of the Loans, by notice to the Borrower declare the Loans (together with accrued interest thereon) to be, and the Loans (together with accrued interest thereon) shall thereupon become, immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Borrower; provided that in the case of any of the Events of Default specified in clause (g) or (h) above with respect to the Borrower, without any notice to the Borrower or any other act by the Agent or the Banks, the Commitments shall thereupon terminate and the Loans (together with accrued interest thereon) shall become immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Borrower.

ARTICLE VII

The Agent

SECTION 7.01. Appointment and Authorization. Each Bank irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated to the Agent by the terms hereof, together with all such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Banks named on the cover page of this Agreement as co-syndication agents are not authorized to take any action as agent on behalf of the Agent or on behalf of any Bank, and shall not have any rights, responsibilities, duties or any powers as an agent under this Agreement.

SECTION 7.02. Agent and Affiliates. JPMorgan Chase Bank shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Bank and may exercise or refrain from exercising the same as though it were not the Agent, and JPMorgan Chase Bank and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Borrower as if it were not the Agent hereunder.

SECTION 7.03. Action by Agent. The obligations of the Agent hereunder are only those expressly set forth herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agent shall not be required to take any action with respect to any Default, except as expressly provided in Article VI.

SECTION 7.04. Consultation with Experts. The Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts.

SECTION 7.05. Liability of Agent. Neither the Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents, or employees shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in connection herewith (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Banks or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Neither the Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into or verify (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in connection with this Agreement or any Borrowing hereunder; (ii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants or agreements of the Borrower; (iii) the satisfaction of any condition specified in Article III, except receipt of items required to be delivered to the Agent; or (iv) the validity, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement

or any other instrument or writing furnished in connection herewith. The Agent shall not incur any liability by acting in reliance upon any notice, consent, certificate, statement, or other writing (which may be a bank wire, telex or similar writing) reasonably believed by it to be genuine and to be signed by the proper party or parties.

SECTION 7.06. Indemnification. Each Bank shall, ratably in accordance with its Commitment (or outstanding Loans, if the Commitments have terminated), indemnify the Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower) against any cost, expense (including counsel fees and disbursements), claim, demand, action, loss or liability (except such as result from the Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct) that the Agent may suffer or incur in connection with this Agreement or any action taken or omitted by the Agent hereunder.

SECTION 7.07. Credit Decision. Each Bank acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Bank, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Bank also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Bank, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking any action under this Agreement.

SECTION 7.08. Successor Agent. The Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Banks and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Required Banks shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent approved by the Borrower (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld). If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Banks, and approved by the Borrower and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Banks, appoint a successor Agent, which shall be a commercial bank organized or licensed under the laws of the United States of America or of any State thereof and having a combined capital and surplus of at least two billion dollars. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. After any retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this Article shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent.

SECTION 7.09. Agent’s Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Agent, for its own account, fees in the amounts and at the times previously agreed upon between the Borrower and the Agent.

ARTICLE VIII

Change in Circumstances

SECTION 8.01. Basis for Determining Interest Rate Inadequate or Unfair. If on or prior to the first day of any Interest Period for any Euro-Dollar Loan or Money Market LIBOR Loan the Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that deposits in dollars (in the applicable amounts) are not generally available in the London interbank market for such period or that the London Interbank Offered Rate cannot be determined in accordance with the definition thereof, the Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Banks, whereupon until the Agent notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, (i) the obligations of the Banks to make Euro-Dollar Loans, to convert outstanding Base Rate Loans into Euro-Dollar Loans or to convert outstanding Euro-Dollar Loans into Euro-Dollar Loans with a different Interest Period shall be suspended, (ii) each outstanding Euro-Dollar Loan or Money Market LIBOR Loan, as the case may be, shall be converted into a Base Rate Loan on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable thereto, and (iii) unless the Borrower notifies the Agent at least two Domestic Business Days before the date of any Euro-Dollar Borrowing or Money Market LIBOR Borrowing, as the case may be, for which a Notice of Borrowing has previously been given that it elects not to borrow on such date, (x) if such Borrowing is a Euro-Dollar Borrowing, such Borrowing shall instead be made as a Base Rate Borrowing and (y) if such Borrowing is a Money Market LIBOR Borrowing, the Money Market LIBOR Loans comprising such Borrowing shall bear interest for each day from and including the first day to but excluding the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto at the Base Rate for such day.

SECTION 8.02. Illegality. If, on or after the date of this Agreement, the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Bank (or its Applicable Lending Office) with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency shall make it unlawful or impossible for any Bank (or its Euro-Dollar Lending Office) to make, maintain or fund its Euro-Dollar Loans and such Bank shall so notify the Agent, the Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the other Banks and the Borrower, whereupon until such Bank notifies the Borrower and the Agent that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, the obligation of such Bank to make Euro-Dollar Loans, or to convert outstanding Base Rate Loans into Euro-Dollar Loans, or to convert outstanding Euro-Dollar Loans into Euro-Dollar Loans with a different Interest Period shall be suspended. Before giving any notice to the Agent pursuant to this Section 8.02, such Bank shall designate a different Applicable Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for giving such notice and will not, in the judgment of such Bank, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Bank. If such notice is given, all Euro-

Dollar Loans of such Bank then outstanding shall be converted to Base Rate Loans either (a) on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to such Euro-Dollar Loans if such Bank may lawfully continue to maintain and fund such Loans to such day or (b) immediately if such Bank may not lawfully continue to maintain and fund such Loans to such day.

SECTION 8.03. Increased Cost and Reduced Return. (a) If any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Bank (or its Applicable Lending Office) with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency, made or adopted after the date hereof (other than a change currently provided for in any existing law, rule or regulation) shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, insurance assessment or similar requirement (including, without limitation, any such requirement imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, but excluding, with respect to any Euro-Dollar Loan, any such requirement with respect to which such Bank is entitled to compensation during the relevant Interest Period under Section 2.16) against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Bank (or its Applicable Lending Office) or shall impose on any Bank (or its Applicable Lending Office) or on the United States market for certificates of deposit or the London interbank market any other condition affecting its Fixed Rate Loans (other than Money Market Absolute Rate Loans), its Note (in respect of such Fixed Rate Loans) or its obligation to make such Fixed Rate Loans; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Bank (or its Applicable Lending Office) of making or maintaining any Fixed Rate Loan, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Bank (or its Applicable Lending Office) under this Agreement or under its Note with respect thereto, by an amount reasonably deemed by such Bank to be material, then, within 15 days after demand by such Bank (with a copy to the Agent), the Borrower shall pay to such Bank such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Bank for such increased cost or reduction.

(b) If any Bank shall have determined that any applicable law, rule or regulation regarding capital adequacy, or any change in any such law, rule or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency, made or adopted after the date hereof (other than a change currently provided for in any existing law, rule or regulation), has or would have the effect of increasing the amount of capital of such Bank (or its parent) required to be maintained in respect of, or otherwise allocated to, such Bank’s obligations hereunder (its “Required Capital”) by an amount

reasonably deemed by such Bank to be material, then such Bank may, by notice to the Borrower and the Agent, increase the facility fee payable to such Bank hereunder to the extent required so that the ratio of (w) the sum of the increased facility fee applicable to such Bank’s Commitment or Loans hereunder to (x) the prior facility fee applicable to such Bank’s Commitment or Loans hereunder is the same as the ratio of (y) such Bank’s increased Required Capital to (z) its prior Required Capital. Such Bank’s notice to the Borrower and the Agent shall set forth its calculation of the foregoing ratios and the increased facility fee to which it is entitled under this Section.

(c) Each Bank will promptly notify the Borrower and the Agent of any event of which it has knowledge, occurring after the date hereof, which will entitle such Bank to compensation pursuant to this Section (each, a “Trigger Event”) and will designate a different Applicable 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 Bank, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Bank. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, no Bank shall be entitled to any compensation pursuant to this Section in respect of any Trigger Event (i) for any period of time in excess of 120 days prior to such notice or (ii) for any period of time prior to such notice if such Bank shall not have given such notice within 120 days of the date on which such Trigger Event shall have been enacted, promulgated, adopted or issued in definitive or final form unless such Trigger Event is retroactive. A certificate of any Bank claiming compensation under Section 8.03(a) or (b) and setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder and describing the method of calculation thereof shall be conclusive if made reasonably and in good faith. In determining such amount, such Bank may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.

SECTION 8.04. Taxes. (a) For purposes of this Section 8.04, the following terms have the following meanings:

“Taxes” means any and all present or future taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings with respect to any payment by the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or under any Note, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding (i) in the case of each Bank and the Agent, taxes imposed on its income, and franchise or similar taxes imposed on it, by a jurisdiction under the laws of which such Bank or the Agent (as the case may be) is organized or in which its principal executive office is located or, in the case of each Bank, in which its Applicable Lending Office is located and (ii) in the case of each Bank, any United States withholding tax imposed on such payments but only to the extent that such Bank is subject to United States withholding tax at the time such Bank first becomes a party to this Agreement.

“Other Taxes” means any present or future stamp or documentary taxes and any other excise or property taxes, or similar charges or levies, which arise from any payment made

pursuant to this Agreement or under any Note or from the execution or delivery of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any Note.

(b) Any and all payments by the Borrower to or for the account of any Bank or the Agent hereunder or under any Note shall be made without deduction for any Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that, if the Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes or Other Taxes from any such payments, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 8.04) such Bank or the Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions, (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law and (iv) the Borrower shall furnish to the Agent, at its address referred to in Section 9.01, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof.

(c) The Borrower agrees to indemnify each Bank and the Agent for the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 8.04) paid by such Bank or the Agent (as the case may be) and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses, except to the extent attributable to the negligence or misconduct of such Bank or the Agent, as the case may be) arising therefrom or with respect thereto. This indemnification shall be made within 15 days from the date such Bank or the Agent (as the case may be) makes demand therefor.

(d) Each Bank organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States, on or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement in the case of each Bank listed on the signature pages hereof and on or prior to the date on which it becomes a Bank in the case of each other Bank, shall provide the Borrower with (i) two Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) forms W8-BEN or any successor form prescribed by the IRS, certifying that such Bank is entitled to benefits under an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party which exempts such Bank from United States withholding tax or reduces the rate of withholding tax on payments of interest and eliminates withholding tax on any fees, or (ii) two IRS forms W8-ECI certifying that the income receivable pursuant to this Agreement is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States. If the form provided by a Bank indicates a United States interest withholding tax rate in excess of zero, withholding tax at such rate shall be considered excluded from “Taxes” as defined in Section 8.04(a). Each such Bank undertakes to deliver to each of the Borrower and the Agent (A) a replacement form (or successor form) on or before the date that such form expires or becomes obsolete or after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form so delivered by it, and (B) such amendments thereto or

extensions or renewals thereof as may reasonably be required (but only so long as such Bank remains lawfully able to do so).

(e) For any period with respect to which a Bank has failed to provide the Borrower with the appropriate form pursuant to Section 8.04(d) (unless such failure is due to a change in treaty, law or regulation occurring subsequent to the date on which a form originally was required to be provided), such Bank shall not be entitled to indemnification under Section 8.04(b) or Section 8.04(c) with respect to Taxes imposed by the United States; provided that if a Bank, which is otherwise exempt from or subject to a reduced rate of withholding tax, becomes subject to Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form required hereunder, the Borrower shall take such steps as such Bank shall reasonably request to assist such Bank to recover such Taxes.

(f) Each Bank will promptly notify the Borrower and the Agent of any event of which it has knowledge, occurring after the date hereof, which will entitle such Bank to make any claim for indemnification in respect of Taxes or Other Taxes pursuant to this Section 8.04 (each, a “Tax Event”) and will designate a different Applicable Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such claim or any other amounts payable by the Borrower under this Section 8.04 and will not, in the judgment of such Bank, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Bank. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section, no Bank shall be entitled to any indemnification pursuant to this Section in respect of any Tax Event (i) for any period of time in excess of 180 days prior to such notice or (ii) for any period of time prior to such notice if such Bank shall not have given such notice within 120 days of the date on which such Bank became aware of such Tax Event unless such Tax Event is retroactive.

SECTION 8.05. Base Rate Loans Substituted for Affected Euro-Dollar Loans. If (i) the obligation of any Bank to make or maintain Euro-Dollar Loans has been suspended pursuant to Section 8.02 or (ii) any Bank has demanded compensation under Section 8.03(a) and the Borrower shall, by at least five Euro-Dollar Business Days prior notice to such Bank through the Agent, have elected that the provisions of this Section shall apply to such Bank, then, unless and until such Bank notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension or demand for compensation no longer apply:


	(a) all Loans which would otherwise be made by such Bank as (or continued as or converted into) Euro-Dollar Loans shall instead be Base Rate Loans, and


	(b) after each of its outstanding Euro-Dollar Loans has been repaid (or converted to a Base Rate Loan), all payments of principal which would otherwise be applied to repay such Euro-Dollar Loans shall be applied to repay its Base Rate Loans instead.

If such Bank notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer apply, the Borrower shall elect

that the principal amount of each such Base Rate Loan shall be converted into a Euro-Dollar Loan on the first day of the next succeeding Interest Period applicable to the related Euro-Dollar Loans of the other Banks.

SECTION 8.06. Substitution of Bank. If (i) the obligation of any Bank to make Euro-Dollar Loans has been suspended pursuant to Section 8.02 or (ii) any Bank has demanded compensation under Section 8.03 or 8.04, the Borrower shall have the right to seek a substitute bank or banks (“Substitute Banks”) (which may be one or more of the Banks) to purchase the Loans and assume the Commitment of such Bank (the “Affected Bank”) under this Agreement and, if the Borrower locates a Substitute Bank, the Affected Bank shall, upon payment to it of the purchase price agreed between it and the Substitute Bank (or, failing such agreement, a purchase price in the amount of the outstanding principal amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon to the date of payment) plus any amount (other than principal and interest) then due to it or accrued for its account hereunder, assign all its rights and obligations under this Agreement and all of its Notes to the Substitute Bank, and the Substitute Bank shall assume such rights and obligations, whereupon the Substitute Bank shall be a Bank party to this Agreement and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Bank.

SECTION 8.07. Election to Terminate. If during any Level I Period, Level II Period or Level III Period (i) the obligation of any Bank to make Euro-Dollar Loans has been suspended pursuant to Section 8.02 or (ii) any Bank has demanded compensation under Section 8.03 or 8.04, the Borrower may elect to terminate this Agreement as to such Bank, and in connection therewith not to borrow any Loan hereunder from such Bank or to prepay any Base Rate Loan made pursuant to Section 8.02 or 8.05 (without altering the Commitments or Loans of the remaining Banks); provided that the Borrower (i) notifies such Bank through the Agent of such election at least two Euro-Dollar Business Days before any date fixed for such borrowing or such a prepayment, as the case may be, and (ii) repays all of such Bank’s outstanding Loans, accrued interest thereon and any other amounts then due to such Bank or accrued for its account hereunder concurrently with such termination. Upon receipt by the Agent of such notice, the Commitment of such Bank shall terminate.

(b) Any Bank 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); provided that (i) except in the case of an assignment to a Bank or an Affiliate of a Bank, each of the Borrower and the Agent must give their prior written consent to such assignment (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, it being understood that it shall be reasonable for the Borrower to withhold consent if the proposed assignee does not have an investment grade rating), (ii) except in the case of an assignment to a Bank or an Affiliate of a Bank or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Bank’s Commitment

(or, if the Commitments have terminated, the entire amount of its outstanding Loans), the amount of the Commitment (or, if the Commitments have terminated, the amount of the outstanding Loans) of the assigning Bank subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000 unless each of the Borrower and the Agent otherwise consent, (iii) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, except that this clause (iii) shall not apply to rights in respect of outstanding Money Market Loans, (iv) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (except that such fee shall not be payable in the case of an assignment by a Bank to one of its Affiliates or to another Bank), and (v) the assignee, if it shall not be a Bank, shall deliver to the Agent an Administrative Questionnaire; and provided further that any consent of the Borrower otherwise required under this paragraph shall not be required if an Event of Default under clause (a), (b), (g) or (h) of Section 6.01 has occurred and is continuing. Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (d) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Bank under this Agreement, and the assigning Bank thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Bank shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 8.03, 8.05 and 9.03). Any assignment or transfer by a Bank of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Bank of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (e) of this Section.

(c) The Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in The City of New York a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Banks, and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Bank pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Agent and the Banks may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Bank hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Bank, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Bank and an assignee, the

assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Bank 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 Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption 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.

(e) Any Bank may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Bank’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Bank shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Agent and the other Banks shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Bank in connection with such Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Bank sells such a participation shall provide that such Bank shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Bank will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 9.04 that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (f) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.16, 8.03 and 8.04 to the same extent as if it were a Bank and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section.

(f) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 8.03 or 8.04 than the applicable Bank 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 the Borrower’s prior written consent or by reason of the provisions of Section 8.02, 8.03 or 8.04 requiring such Bank to designate a different Applicable Lending Office under certain circumstances.

(g) Any Bank 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 Bank, 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 Bank from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Bank as a party hereto.

SECTION 9.06. New York Law. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New York.

SECTION 9.07. Counterparts; Integration. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and understanding among the parties hereto and supersedes any and all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof.

SECTION 9.08. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE BORROWER, THE AGENT AND THE BANKS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be duly executed by their respective authorized officers as of the day and year first above written.
