Term Loans ("Incremental Tranche B Commitments") shall become Tranche B
Term Commitments under this Agreement, and shall terminate (the
"Incremental Tranche B Commitment Termination Date") on the earlier of (x)
the date on which the related Incremental Tranche B Loans are made and (y)
the date agreed to among the Borrower and the Lenders that provide such
Incremental Tranche B Commitments. The Borrower shall pay to the
Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender that commits to
provide a Incremental Tranche B Commitment a commitment fee in respect

the date such Incremental Tranche B Commitment is delivered to but

Termination Date and (y) the date on which the Borrower terminates such
Incremental Tranche B Commitment. Accrued commitment fees with respect to
each Incremental Tranche B Commitment shall be computed in the same manner
as, and shall be payable at the same times as, the commitment fees in
respect of the Revolving Commitments set forth in Section 2.12. The
Additional Lenders shall be deemed to be Tranche B Lenders for all
purposes of this Agreement.

outstanding prior to the making of such Incremental Tranche B Term Loans
and (ii) if the Incremental Tranche B Rate exceeds the Tranche B Rate in
effect immediately prior to the making of such Incremental Tranche B Term
Loans, then the Tranche B Rate shall be increased to an amount equal to
the Incremental Tranche B Rate.
