ANNEX I

Schedule 1.01

PRICING SCHEDULE

Applicable Rate	Level I Status	Level II Status	Level III Status	Level IV Status

Facility Fee Rate	0.35%	0.40%	0.45%	0.50%
ABR Spread	3.00%	3.25%	3.50%	4.00%

For the purposes of this Schedule, the following terms have the following meanings, subject to the final paragraph of this Schedule:

“Financials” means the annual, quarterly or monthly financial statements of the Company delivered pursuant to Section 5.01 of this Agreement.

“Level I Status” exists at any date if, as of the last day of the fiscal quarter of the Company referred to in the most recent Financials, the Leverage Ratio is less than 1.50 to 1.00.

“Level II Status” exists at any date if, as of the last day of the fiscal quarter of the Company referred to in the most recent Financials, (i) the Company has not qualified for Level I Status and (ii) the Leverage Ratio is less than 2.00 to 1.00.

“Level III Status” exists at any date if, as of the last day of the fiscal quarter of the Company referred to in the most recent Financials, (i) the Company has not qualified for Level I Status or Level II Status and (ii) the Leverage Ratio is less than 2.50 to 1.00.

“Level IV Status” exists at any date if the Company has not qualified for Level I Status, Level II Status or Level III Status.

“Status” means Level I Status, Level II Status, Level III or Level IV Status.

The Applicable Rate shall be determined in accordance with the foregoing table based on the Company’s Status as reflected in the then most recent Financials. Adjustments, if any, to the Applicable Rate shall be effective five Business Days after the Administrative Agent has received the applicable Financials. If the Company fails to deliver the Financials to the Administrative Agent at the time required pursuant to the Credit Agreement, then the Applicable Rate shall be the highest Applicable Rate set forth in the foregoing table until five days after such Financials are so delivered. Until adjusted commencing with the delivery of the Company’s Financials with respect to the fiscal quarter ending on or about December 31, 2008, Level IV Status shall be deemed to exist.

- 7 -

If, as a result of (i) any restatement of or other adjustment to the Financials of the Company or its Subsidiaries or (ii) for any other reason, which in any such case referred to in clause (i) or (ii), arises from an act of fraud or willful misconduct on the part of Company or its Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent or Required Lenders determine that (a) the Leverage Ratio or Applicable Margin as calculated by the Company and its Subsidiaries as of any applicable date were inaccurate (due to any errors or misstatements in the calculation thereof) and (b) a proper calculation of the Leverage Ratio or Applicable Margin would have resulted in a higher level of pricing for any period, then the Company shall automatically and retroactively be obligated to pay to the Lenders, and shall pay to the Lenders promptly on demand by the Administrative Agent or Required Lenders, an amount equal to the excess of the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for such period over the amount of interest and fees actually paid for such period.
