SECTION 2

THE CREDIT FACILITIES

2.1 Term Loan.

(a)                                 Commitment. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Credit Agreement, the Lender agrees to make one or more term loans to the Borrower within the Availability Period such that (i) the aggregate of (a) the outstanding principal amount of such Loans and (b) the interest and fees due and payable with respect to such Loans for one Interest Period shall not exceed 95% of the Dollar Equivalent of the drawable amount of the Letters of Credit that secure the Borrower’s Obligations under the Credit Agreement and are delivered to the Lender on or prior to the Borrowing Date of such Loans, and (ii) the aggregate principal amount of all the Loans will not exceed the Committed Amount. Amounts repaid or prepaid in respect of each Loan may not be reborrowed.

(b)                                 Loan Borrowings.

(i)                                     Notice of Borrowing. The Borrower shall request a Loan borrowing by written notice (or telephone notice promptly confirmed in writing) to the Lender not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York, New York time) two (2) business days prior to the date of the requested borrowing. Such request for borrowing shall be irrevocable, shall be made in a notice of borrowing in substantially the form of Exhibit A attached hereto (a “Notice of Borrowing”), and shall specify (A) that a Loan is requested, (B) the date of the requested borrowing (which shall be a Business Day within the Availability Period) (the “Borrowing Date”), and (C) the aggregate principal amount to be borrowed.

(ii)                                  Minimum Amounts. A Loan borrowing shall be in a minimum aggregate amount of $100,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof (or the remaining Committed Amount, if less).

(iii)                               Advances. The Lender will make a Loan borrowing available to the Borrower by crediting the account of the Borrower on the books of the office of the Lender specified in Section 7.1 with the amount requested in the Notice of Borrowing or by wire transferring such amount to a bank account designated by the Borrower pursuant to the wire instruction set forth in the Notice of Borrowing. The Lender at its option may make any Loan by causing any of its domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate to make such Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Credit Agreement.

(c)                                  Repayment. The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to repay in full the principal amount of each Loan and the other Obligations outstanding, and not previously repaid, on its Maturity Date.

(d)                                 Interest. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.2, each Loan shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the LIBOR Rate for the applicable Interest Period plus the LIBOR Rate Spread. The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Lender accrued interest on each Loan in arrears on each Interest Payment Date and on its Maturity Date.

9

(e)                                  Evidence of Debt. The Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to the Lender resulting from the Loans made by the Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to the Lender from time to time hereunder. The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to this subsection shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of the Lender 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 Credit Agreement. The Lender may request that a Loan made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to the Lender a promissory note payable to the order of the Lender (or, if requested by the Lender, to the Lender and its registered assigns) and substantially in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto. Thereafter, the Loan evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 7.2) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the order of the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns).

2.2 Default Rate.

The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Lender interest on demand on all overdue principal and, to the extent permitted by law (after as well as before judgment), overdue interest in respect of each Loan and any other overdue amount payable hereunder or under the other Credit Documents at a rate 4% per annum greater than the rate which would otherwise be applicable.

2.3 Prepayments.

(a)                                 Voluntary Prepayments. The Borrower may prepay the Loans, in whole or in part, at any time without any premium or penalty (subject to the break funding payments as set forth in Section 2.10 hereunder); provided that partial prepayments shall be in a minimum principal amount of $100,000 and multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof (or the remaining outstanding principal of all Loan, if less) and may only be made on the last day of an Interest Period. Any prepayment under this Credit Agreement shall be made together with accrued interest on the amount prepaid if such prepayment is made on Interest Payment Date; otherwise, only the principal amount shall be prepaid on the date of such prepayment and the accrued interest on the amount prepaid shall be paid on the next applicable Interest Payment Date.

(b)                                 Notice. In the case of voluntary prepayments under subsection (a) hereof, the Borrower will give notice to the Lender of its intent to make such a prepayment by 11:00 A.M. (New York, New York time) three (3) Business Days prior to the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Loan or portion thereof to be prepaid.

2.4 Capital Adequacy.

If, after the Closing Date, the Lender has determined that the adoption or effectiveness of any applicable law, rule or regulation regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein, or any

10

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 the Lender or its holding company with 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, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the Lender’s or its holding company’s capital or assets as a consequence of its commitments or obligations hereunder to a level below that which the Lender or its holding company could have achieved but for such adoption, effectiveness, change or compliance (taking into consideration the Lender’s or its holding company’s policies with respect to capital adequacy), then, upon notice from the Lender, the Borrower shall pay to the Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate the Lender or its holding company for such reduction. Each determination by the Lender of amounts owing under this Section shall, absent manifest error, be conclusive and binding on the Borrower. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lender agrees that, before giving any notice seeking a payment under this Section 2.4, it will use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different office, branch or Affiliate of the Lender as the office, branch or Affiliate of the Lender having the commitments and obligations of the Lender hereunder if making such designation would avoid or reduce the amount of such reduction in its rate of return on its capital or assets and would not, in the reasonable judgment of the Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to the Lender.

2.5 Requirements of Law.

If the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof applicable to the Lender, or compliance by the Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority, in each case made subsequent to the Closing Date (or, if later, the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender) (it being understood and agreed that matters set forth in the Consultation Paper issued by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision of June 1999 shall not be treated as having been adopted or applied prior to the Closing Date):

(i)                                     shall subject the Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to the Loans made by it or change the basis of taxation of payments to the Lender in respect thereof (except for Non-Excluded Taxes covered by Section 2.6 (including Non-Excluded Taxes imposed solely by reason of any failure of the Lender to comply with its obligations under Section 2.6) and changes in taxes measured by or imposed upon the overall net income, or franchise tax (imposed in lieu of such net income tax), of the Lender or its applicable lending office, branch, or any affiliate thereof);

(ii)                                  shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of the Lender; or

(iii)                               shall impose on the Lender any other condition (excluding any tax of any kind whatsoever);

11

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to the Lender, by an amount which such Lender deems to be material, of making, continuing or maintaining the Loans or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any such case, upon notice to the Borrower from the Lender, in accordance herewith, the Borrower shall promptly pay the Lender, upon its demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate the Lender for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable; provided that, the Borrower shall not be under any obligation to pay to the Lender amounts otherwise owing under this Section 2.7 if the Lender shall not have delivered such written notice to the Borrower, within ninety (90) days following the later of (A) the date of occurrence of the event which forms the basis for such notice and request for compensation and (B) the date the Lender becomes aware of such event. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the ▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements and directives thereunder, issued in connection therewith or in implementation thereof, shall be deemed to be a change in a Requirement of Law, regardless of the date enacted, adopted, issued or implemented. If the Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall provide prompt notice thereof to the Borrower certifying (x) that one of the events described in this Section has occurred and describing in reasonable detail the nature of such event, (y) as to the increased cost or reduced amount resulting from such event and (z) as to the additional amount demanded by the Lender and a reasonably detailed explanation of the calculation thereof. Such a certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted by the Lender to the Borrower shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Credit Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lender agrees that, before giving any notice seeking a payment of additional amounts under this Section 2.5, the Lender will use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different office, branch or Affiliate as the office, branch or Affiliate of the Lender making, continuing or maintaining the Loans hereunder or having the commitments and obligations hereunder resulting in such increased cost to the Lender or reduction in the amount receivable by the Lender hereunder if making such designation would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such increased cost or would avoid or decrease the reduction in the amount receivable hereunder and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to the Lender.

2.6 Taxes.

Except as provided below in this subsection, all payments made by the Borrower under this Credit Agreement shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future income, stamp or other taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings, now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority, (excluding net income taxes and franchise taxes imposed in lieu of net income taxes imposed on the Lender as a result of a present or former connection between the jurisdiction of the Governmental Authority imposing such tax and the Lender (except a connection arising solely from the Lender having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received a payment under, or enforced, this Credit Agreement)) (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions and withholdings being hereinafter called “Non-Excluded Taxes”). If any Non-Excluded Taxes are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to the Lender hereunder, the amounts so payable to the

12

Lender shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to the Lender (after payment of all Non-Excluded Taxes) interest or any such other amounts payable hereunder at the rates or in the amounts specified in this Credit Agreement. Whenever any Non-Excluded Taxes are payable by the Borrower, as promptly as possible thereafter the Borrower shall send to the Lender a certified copy of an original official receipt received by the Borrower showing payment thereof. If the Borrower fails to pay any Non-Excluded Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to the Lender the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, the Borrower shall indemnify the Lender for any taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by the Lender as a result of any such failure. The agreements in this subsection shall survive the termination of this Credit Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

2.7 Place and Manner of Payments.

Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, all payments hereunder shall be made to the Lender in Dollars in immediately available funds, without offset, deduction, counterclaim or withholding of any kind, at its offices specified in Section 7.1 not later than 2:00 P.M. (New York, New York time) on the date when due. Payments received after such time shall be deemed to have been received on the immediately succeeding Business Day. The Lender may (but shall not be obligated to) debit the amount of any such payment which is not made by such time to any ordinary deposit account of the Borrower maintained with the Lender (with notice to the Borrower). The Borrower shall, at the time it makes any payment under this Credit Agreement, specify to the Lender the Loans, fees or other amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder to which such payment is to be applied (and in the event that it fails so to specify, or if such application would be inconsistent with the terms hereof, the Lender shall apply the payment in such manner as the Lender may determine to be appropriate in respect of obligations owing by the Borrower hereunder subject to the terms of Section 2.3(a)). Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day which is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be extended to the immediately succeeding Business Day (subject to accrual of interest at non-default rates and fees for the period of such extension (but not any default interest on amounts as to which such due date shall have been extended)), except where the immediately succeeding Business Day falls in the immediately succeeding calendar month, then the due date shall be the immediately preceding Business Day. Except as expressly provided otherwise herein, all computations of interest and fees shall be made on the basis of actual number of days elapsed over a year of three hundred and sixty (360) days. Interest shall accrue from and include the date of borrowing, but exclude the date of payment.

2.8 Facility Fee.

The Borrower shall pay to the Lender a Facility Fee in an amount equal to 0.30% per annum multiplied by the outstanding principal amount of each Loan. The Facility Fee is payable on each Interest Payment Date of such Loan. Any Facility Fee, once paid, is not refundable under any circumstances (including but not limited to circumstances in relation to any prepayment made by the Borrower pursuant to this Credit Agreement).

13

2.9 Upfront Fee.

The Borrower shall pay to the Lender an Upfront Fee, in an amount and in the manner as set forth in a Fee Letter. Any Upfront Fee, once paid, is not refundable under any circumstances (including but not limited to circumstances in relation to any prepayment made by the Borrower pursuant to this Credit Agreement).

2.10 Break Funding Payments.

In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), or (b) the failure to borrow or prepay any Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto, then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate the Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. Such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loans had such event not occurred, at the interest rate that would have been applicable to such Loans, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loans), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the then applicable LIBOR Rate for a period available in the London interbank market closest in length to such remaining period. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.

2.11 Extension.

Unless the Loans hereunder shall have been prepaid on or before the last date of an Interest Period, the outstanding Loans hereunder shall be automatically extended on the last date of an Interest Period for another Interest Period; provided that no Loan hereunder shall be extended beyond its Maturity Date.

(a)                                 Generally. This Credit Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto; provided that the Borrower may not assign and transfer any of its interests without prior written consent of the Lender; provided further that the rights of the Lender to transfer, assign or grant participations in its rights and/or obligations hereunder shall be limited as set forth in this Section 7.2, provided, however, that nothing herein shall prevent or prohibit the Lender from (i) pledging or assigning its Loan hereunder to a Federal Reserve Bank in support of borrowings made by the Lender from such Federal Reserve Bank, or (ii) granting assignments or participations in the Lender’s Loan and/or Commitments hereunder to its parent company and/or to any of its Affiliate.

(b)                                 Assignments. (i) The Lender may, upon obtaining the consent of the Borrower and to assign all of its rights and obligations hereunder pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance to another bank or financial institution; provided that (A) no such consent shall be unreasonably withheld or delayed and (B) no such consent shall be required with respect to any assignment by the Lender to its Affiliate and no such consent shall be required from the Borrower after the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default. Any assignment hereunder shall be effective upon execution by all necessary parties of the applicable Assignment and Acceptance. The assigning Lender will give prompt notice to the Borrower of any such assignment. Upon the effectiveness of any such assignment (and after notice to the Borrower as provided herein), the assignee shall become a “Lender” for all purposes of this Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents and, to the extent of such assignment, the assigning Lender shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder to the extent of the Loans and Commitment components being assigned.

(ii)                                  Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (a)(iii) below, 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 Lender under this Credit Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Credit Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.5, 2.7, 2.8 and 7.4 in respect of the period that it was a Lender). Any assignment or transfer by the Lender of rights or obligations under this Credit Agreement that does not comply with this Section 7.2 shall be treated for purposes of this Credit Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section.

(iii)                               The Borrower shall maintain a register at one of its offices (the “Register”) on which it will record the Commitments from time to time of each of the Lender and each repayment in respect of the principal amount and stated interest of such Commitments

30

of each Lender. Failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation shall not affect the Borrower’s obligations under this Credit Agreement. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower and the Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Credit Agreement. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Credit Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

(c)                                  Participations. (i) The Lender may sell, transfer, grant or assign participations in all or any part of its interests and obligations hereunder to one or more banks or other entities (each a “Participant”); provided that (i) the selling Lender shall remain the “Lender” for all purposes under this Credit Agreement (the selling Lender’s obligations under the Credit Documents remaining unchanged) and the Participant shall not constitute a Lender hereunder, (ii) no such Participant shall have, or be granted, rights to approve any amendment or waiver relating to this Credit Agreement or the other Credit Documents except to the extent any such amendment or waiver would (A) reduce the principal of or rate of interest on or fees in respect of any Loan in which the Participant is participating, or (B) postpone the date fixed for any payment of principal (including extension of the Maturity Date or the date of any mandatory prepayment), interest or fees in which the Participant is participating and (iii) sub-participations by the Participant (except to an affiliate, parent company or affiliate of a parent company of the Participant) shall be prohibited. In the case of any such participation, except as contemplated in clause (ii) of the proviso of the first sentence of this Section, the Participant shall not have any rights under this Credit Agreement or the other Credit Documents (the Participant’s rights against the selling Lender in respect of such participation to be those set forth in the participation agreement with the Lender creating such participation) and all amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation.

(ii)                                  Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest acquired pursuant to this Section 7.2(c) (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Credit Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Credit Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

(d)                                 Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Credit Agreement to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank.

(e)                                  The Borrower, upon receipt of written notice from the relevant Lender, agrees to issue Notes to any Lender requiring Notes in the form attached as Exhibit B hereto.

7.3 No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative.

No failure or delay on the part of the Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document and no course of dealing between or among the parties hereto shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder. The rights and remedies provided herein are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which the Lender would otherwise have. No notice to or demand on any party hereto in any case shall entitle any such party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the Lender to take any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.

7.4 Payment of Expenses and Taxes.

The Borrower agrees (a) to pay or reimburse the Lender for all its reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the development, preparation and execution of, and any amendment, supplement or modification to, this Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents and any other documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith, and the consummation and administration of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Lender and filing and recording fees and expenses; provided, however, the Borrower shall only be liable for the fees and expenses of one counsel for the Lender, from time to time, in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery and administration of this Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents, with statements with respect to the foregoing to be submitted to the Borrower prior to the Closing Date (in the case of amounts to be paid on the Closing Date) and from time to time thereafter on a quarterly basis or such other periodic basis as the Lender shall deem appropriate, (b) to pay or reimburse the Lender for all its reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement or preservation of any rights under this Credit Agreement, the other Credit Documents and any such other documents, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel (including the allocated fees and expenses of in-house counsel) to the Lender, (c) to pay, indemnify, and hold the Lender harmless from, any and all recording and filing fees and any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, stamp, excise and other taxes, if any, that may be payable or determined to be payable in connection with the execution and delivery of, or consummation or administration of any of the transactions contemplated by, or any amendment, supplement or modification of, or any waiver or consent under or in respect of, this Credit Agreement, the other Credit Documents and any such other documents other than any net income taxes and franchise taxes (imposed in lieu of net income taxes) imposed on the Lender as a result of the jurisdiction of the Governmental Authority imposing such tax or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (other than any such connection arising solely from the Lender having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received a payment under, or enforced, this Credit Agreement or any other Credit Document), and (d) to pay, indemnify, and hold the Lender and its officers, directors, employees, affiliates, agents and controlling persons (each, an “Indemnitee”) harmless from and against any and all other liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of this Credit Agreement, the other

32

Credit Documents and any such other documents, including any of the foregoing relating to the use of proceeds of any Loan or the violation of, noncompliance with or liability under, any Environmental Law applicable to the operations of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their properties and the reasonable fees and expenses of legal counsel in connection with claims, actions or proceedings by any Indemnitee against the Borrower under any Credit Document (all the foregoing in this clause (d), collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”), provided, that the Borrower shall have no obligation hereunder to any Indemnitee with respect to Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. Without limiting the foregoing, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower agrees not to assert and to cause its Subsidiaries not to assert, and hereby waives and agrees to cause its Subsidiaries to waive, all rights for contribution or any other rights of recovery that arise as a result of such Indemnitee’s status as a Lender, or an officer, director, employee, affiliate, agent or controlling person thereof, with respect to all claims, demands, penalties, fines, liabilities, settlements, damages, costs and expenses of whatever kind or nature, under or related to Environmental Laws, that any of them might have by statute or otherwise against any Indemnitee, except to the extent that such claims, demands, penalties, fines, liabilities, settlements, damages, costs and expenses have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. All amounts due under this Section 7.4 shall be payable not later than ten (10) days after written demand therefor, and such demand shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for and calculation of any such amounts claimed as owing by the Borrower. Statements payable by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 7.4 shall be submitted to the Borrower at the address of the Borrower set forth in Section 7.1, or to such other Person or address as may be hereafter designated by the Borrower in a written notice to the Lender. The agreements in this Section 7.4 shall survive repayment of the Loan and all other amounts payable hereunder and the termination of this Credit Agreement.

7.5 Amendments, Waivers and Consents.

Neither this Credit Agreement nor any other Credit Document nor any of the terms hereof or thereof may be amended, changed, waived, discharged or terminated unless such amendment, change, waiver, discharge or termination is in writing signed by the Lender and the Borrower. Any such waiver and any such amendment, supplement or modification shall be binding upon the Borrower and the Lender and all future holders of the Loans. In the case of any waiver, the Borrower and the Lender shall be restored to their former position and rights hereunder and under the other Credit Documents, and any Default or Event of Default waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing; but no such waiver, except to the extent expressly provided therein, shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default, or impair any right consequent thereon.

7.6 Adjustments; Set-off.

If (i) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (ii) the Lender has declared the Loans to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 6.2, or the Loans have become immediately due and payable without notice as otherwise provided herein, then the Lender or any of its Affiliates, is hereby authorized by the Borrower at any time and from time to time, to the extent permitted by applicable law, without notice to the Borrower (any such notice being expressly waived by the Borrower), to set off and apply all deposits (general or special, time or

33

demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by the Lender or any of its Affiliates, to or for the account of the Borrower against any obligations of the Borrower to the Lender now or hereafter existing under this Credit Agreement, regardless of whether any such deposit or other obligation is then due and payable or is in the same currency or is booked or otherwise payable at the same office as the obligation against which it is set off and regardless of whether the Lender shall have made any demand for payment under this Credit Agreement. The Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower after any such set-off and application made by the Lender or any of its Affiliates; provided that any failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The rights of the Lender under this subsection are in addition to any other rights and remedies which it may have. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section shall impair the right of the Lender to exercise any right of set-off or counterclaim it may have and to apply the amount subject to such exercise to the payment of indebtedness of the Borrower other than its indebtedness in respect of the Loans.

7.7 Counterparts.

This Credit Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument.
