prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles as in effect from time to time, applied on a basis consistent (except for changes concurred in by the Borrower’s independent public accountants) with the most recent audited consolidated financial statements of the Borrower and its Consolidated Subsidiaries delivered to the Banks (provided that for the purpose of calculating covenant compliance under Article 5, the effect of FASB ASC Topic 815 shall not be applied); provided that, if the Borrower notifies the Agent that the Borrower wishes to amend any covenant in Article 5 to eliminate the effect of any change in generally accepted accounting principles on the operation of such covenant (or if the Agent notifies the Borrower that the Required Banks wish to amend Article 5 for such purpose), then the Borrower’s compliance with such covenant shall be determined on the basis of generally accepted accounting principles in effect for purposes of this Agreement immediately before the relevant change in generally accepted accounting principles became effective, until either such notice is withdrawn or such covenant is amended in a manner satisfactory to the Borrower and the Required Banks.

ARTICLE 2.
THE CREDITS

Section 2.01           Commitments to Lend.  Each Bank severally agrees, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, to make loans to the Borrower pursuant to this Section from time to time after the Effective Date and prior to the Termination Date in amounts such that the aggregate principal amount of Committed Loans by such Bank at any one time outstanding shall not exceed the amount of its Commitment.  Each Borrowing under this Section shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $25,000,000 or any larger multiple of $5,000,000 (except that any such Borrowing may be in the aggregate amount available in accordance with Section 3.02(b)) 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 2.11, prepay Loans and reborrow at any time prior to the Termination Date under this Section.

Section 2.02           Notice of Committed Borrowings.  The Borrower shall give the Agent notice (a “Notice of Committed Borrowing”) not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on (x) the date of each Base Rate Borrowing, (y) the second Domestic Business Day before each CD Borrowing and (z) 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 Domestic Borrowing or 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 CD Loans, Base Rate Loans or Euro-Dollar Loans; and

(d)           in the case of a Fixed Rate Borrowing, the duration of the Interest Period applicable thereto, subject to the provisions of the definition of Interest Period.

13

Section 2.03           Money Market Borrowings.

(a)           The Money Market Option.  In addition to Committed Borrowings pursuant to Section 2.01, the Borrower may, as set forth in this Section, request the Banks to make offers to make, prior to the Termination Date only, 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.  No Money Market Loan shall be deemed to be a use or reduction of the Commitment of any Bank, including the Bank making such Money Market Loan.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, while any Money Market Loan is outstanding, the availability of Committed Loans under this Agreement shall be reduced dollar-for-dollar by an amount equal to the outstanding principal amount of such Money Market Loan.

(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 facsimile transmission a Money Market Quote Request substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto so as to be received no later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on (x) the fifth 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 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 $25,000,000 or a larger multiple of $5,000,000 and which shall not exceed the aggregate amount available in accordance with Section 3.02(b);

(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 such other number of days as the Borrower and the Agent may agree) 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 facsimile transmission an Invitation for Money Market Quotes substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto, which

14

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 facsimile transmission at its offices specified in or pursuant to Section 9.01 not later than (x) 2:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the fourth Euro-Dollar Business Day prior to the proposed date of Borrowing, in the case of a LIBOR Auction or (y) 10:15 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) 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the fourth Euro-Dollar Business Day prior to the proposed date of Borrowing, in the case of a LIBOR Auction or (y) 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the proposed date of Borrowing, in the case of an Absolute Rate Auction.  Subject to Articles 3 and 6, 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 (w) may be greater than or less than the Commitment of the quoting Bank, (x) must be $5,000,000 or a larger multiple of $l,000,000, (y) may not exceed the principal amount of Money Market Loans for which offers were requested and (z) may be subject to an aggregate limitation as to the principal amount of Money Market Loans for which offers being made by such quoting Bank may be accepted;

(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

15

percentage (specified 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 (specified 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 (i) of any Money Market Quote submitted by a Bank that is in accordance with subsection (d) and (ii) 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 and (C) if applicable, limitations on the aggregate principal amount of Money Market Loans for which offers in any single Money Market Quote may be accepted.

(f)            Acceptance and Notice by Borrower.  Not later than 11:00 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 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

16

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 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 $25,000,000 or a larger multiple of $5,000,000;

(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 $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 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 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the date of each Borrowing, each Bank participating therein shall (except as provided in subsection (c) of this Section 2.04) make available its share of such Borrowing, in Federal or other funds immediately available in San Francisco, California, to the Agent at its address referred to in Section 9.01.  Unless the Agent determines that any applicable condition specified in Article 3 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)           If any Bank makes a new Loan hereunder on a day on which the Borrower is to repay all or any part of an outstanding Loan from such Bank, such Bank shall apply the proceeds of its new Loan to make such repayment and only an amount equal to the difference (if any) between the amount being borrowed and the amount being repaid shall

17

be made available by such Bank to the Agent as provided in subsection (b), or remitted by the Borrower to the Agent as provided in Section 2.12, as the case may be.

(d)           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 subsections (b) and (c) 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 or the interest rate applicable thereto pursuant to Section 2.07 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.  The failure of any Bank to make available its share of any Borrowing shall not relieve any other Bank of its corresponding obligation to do so on the date when due, and no Bank shall be responsible for the failure of any other Bank to so make its share available.

Section 2.05           Reserved.

Section 2.06           Maturity of Loans.  Each Loan included in any Borrowing shall mature, and the principal amount thereof shall be due and payable, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Borrowing.

Section 2.07           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 sum of the Applicable Margin for such day plus the Base Rate for such day.  Such interest shall be payable for each Interest Period on the last day thereof.  Any overdue principal of or 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 rate otherwise applicable to Base Rate Loans for such day.

(b)           Each CD Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for each day during the Interest Period applicable thereto, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Applicable Margin for such day plus the Adjusted CD Rate for such Interest Period; provided that if any CD Loan shall, as a result of clause (ii)(b) of the definition of Interest Period, have an Interest Period of less than 30 days, such Loan shall bear interest during such Interest Period at the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans during such period.  Such interest shall be payable for each Interest Period on the last day thereof and, if such Interest Period is longer than 90 days, at intervals of 90 days after the first day thereof.  Any overdue principal of or interest on any CD Loan shall bear interest,

18

payable on demand, for each day until paid at a rate per annum equal to the sum of 2% plus the higher of (i) the sum of the Applicable Margin for such day plus the Adjusted CD Rate applicable to such Loan and (ii) the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans for such day.

The “Adjusted CD Rate” applicable to any Interest Period means a rate per annum determined pursuant to the following formula:

The “CD Base Rate” applicable to any Interest Period is the rate of interest determined by the Agent to be the average (rounded upward, if necessary, to the next higher 1/100 of 1%) of the prevailing rates per annum bid at 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) (or as soon thereafter as practicable) on the first day of such Interest Period by two or more New York certificate of deposit dealers of recognized standing for the purchase at face value from each Reference Bank of its certificates of deposit in an amount comparable to the principal amount of the CD Loan of such Reference Bank to which such Interest Period applies and having a maturity comparable to such Interest Period.

“Domestic Reserve Percentage” means for any day that percentage (expressed as a decimal) which is in effect on such day, as prescribed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (or any successor) for determining the maximum reserve requirement (including without limitation any basic, supplemental or emergency reserves) for a member bank of the Federal Reserve System in New York City with deposits exceeding five billion dollars in respect of new non-personal time deposits in dollars in New York City having a maturity comparable to the related Interest Period and in an amount of $100,000 or more.  The Adjusted CD Rate shall be adjusted automatically on and as of the effective date of any change in the Domestic Reserve Percentage.

“Assessment Rate” means for any day the annual assessment rate in effect on such day which is payable by a member of the Bank Insurance Fund classified as adequately capitalized and within supervisory subgroup “A” (or a comparable successor assessment risk classification) within the meaning of 12 C.F.R. § 327.4(a) (or any successor provision) to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (or any successor) for such Corporation’s (or such successor’s) insuring time deposits, at offices of such institution in the United States. The Adjusted CD Rate shall be adjusted automatically on and as of the effective date of any change in the Assessment Rate.

(1)  Rounded upward, if necessary, to the next higher 1/100 of 1%.

19

(c)           Each Euro-Dollar Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for each day during the Interest Period applicable thereto, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Applicable Margin for such day plus the Adjusted London Interbank Offered Rate for such Interest Period.  Such interest shall be payable for each Interest Period on the last day thereof and, if such Interest Period is longer than three months, at intervals of three months after the first day thereof.

The “Adjusted London Interbank Offered Rate” applicable to any Interest Period means a rate per annum equal to the quotient obtained (rounded upward, if necessary, to the next higher 1/100 of 1%) by dividing (i) the applicable London Interbank Offered Rate by (ii) 1.00 minus the Euro-Dollar Reserve Percentage.

The “London Interbank Offered Rate” means, for such Interest Period, the rate per annum equal to the British Bankers Association LIBOR Rate (“BBA LIBOR”), as published by Reuters (or other commercially available source providing quotations of BBA LIBOR as designated by the Agent from time to time) at approximately 11:00 A.M. (London time) two Euro-Dollar Business Days prior to the commencement of such Interest Period, for Dollar deposits (for delivery on the first day of such Interest Period) with a term equivalent to such Interest Period.  If such rate is not available at such time for any reason, then the “London Interbank Offered Rate” for such Interest Period shall be the rate per annum determined by the Agent to be the rate at which deposits in Dollars for delivery on the first day of such Interest Period in same day funds in the approximate amount of the Euro-Dollar Loan being made, continued or converted by Bank of America and with a term equivalent to such Interest Period would be offered by Bank of America’s London Branch to major banks in the London interbank eurodollar market at their request at approximately 11:00 A.M. (London time) two Euro-Dollar Business Days prior to the commencement of such Interest Period.

“Euro-Dollar Reserve Percentage” means, for any day during any Interest Period, the reserve percentage (expressed as a decimal, carried out to five decimal places) in effect on such day, whether or not applicable to any Bank, under regulations issued from time to time by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System for determining the maximum reserve requirement (including any emergency, supplemental or other marginal reserve requirement) with respect to Eurocurrency funding (currently referred to as “Eurocurrency liabilities”).  The applicable interest rate for each outstanding Euro-Dollar Loan shall be adjusted automatically as of the effective date of any change in the Euro-Dollar Reserve Percentage.

(d)           Any overdue principal of or 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 higher of (i) the sum of the Applicable Margin for such day plus the Adjusted London Interbank Offered Rate applicable to such Loan and (ii) the sum of the

20

Applicable Margin for such day plus the Adjusted London Interbank Offered Rate as of such day applicable to such Loan amount for a presumed one-month Interest Period (or if such amount due remains unpaid more than three Euro-Dollar Business Days, then for a presumed six-month Interest Period), or, if the circumstances described in clause (a) or (b) of Section 8.01 shall exist, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of 2% plus the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans for such day.

(e)           Subject to Section 8.01(a), 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 (determined in accordance with Section 2.07(c) as if the related Money Market LIBOR Borrowing were a Committed Euro-Dollar Borrowing) 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 last day thereof and, if such Interest Period is longer than three months, at intervals of three months after the first day thereof.  Any overdue principal of or 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 rate applicable to Base Rate Loans for such day.

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

(g)           Each Reference Bank agrees to use its best efforts to furnish quotations to the Agent as contemplated by this Section.  If any Reference Bank does not furnish a timely quotation, the Agent shall determine the relevant interest rate on the basis of the quotation or quotations furnished by the remaining Reference Bank or Banks or, if none of such quotations is available on a timely basis, the provisions of Section 8.01 shall apply.

(h)           The “Applicable Margin” with respect to any Euro-Dollar Loan, CD Loan or Base Rate Loan at any date is the applicable percentage amount set forth below in the applicable column, which shall be (i) determined based upon the Debt Rating as specified below and (ii) applicable to all Euro-Dollar Loans, CD Loans and Base Rate Loans existing on and after the first date a specific Debt Rating is effective (the “Debt Rating Date”) and continuing until, but not including, the immediate next Debt Rating Date:

21

In the event that the Debt Ratings assigned by S&P and ▇▇▇▇▇’▇ differ, the Applicable Margin and the Facility Fee Rate referred to in Section 2.08 shall be determined by reference to the rating level having the higher Debt Rating unless such ratings are more than one level apart, in which case the rating level that is one tier below the higher of the two ratings shall determine the Applicable Margin and the Facility Fee Rate.  The final Debt Rating level by which the Applicable Margin and the Facility Fee Rate are determined is referred to herein as a “Level”.

In the event that either S&P or ▇▇▇▇▇’▇ (but not both) shall not make a Debt Rating, the above calculations of the Applicable Margin and the Facility Fee Rate shall be made based on (i) the rating provided by S&P or ▇▇▇▇▇’▇, whichever shall then maintain a current Debt Rating, and (ii) the Debt Rating provided by a nationally recognized securities rating agency selected by the Borrower and approved by the Agent, which shall be substituted for either S&P or ▇▇▇▇▇’▇, as the case may be (the “Alternative Rating Agency”), and the Alternative Rating Agency’s equivalent rating levels shall be substituted for the Debt Rating levels of either S&P or ▇▇▇▇▇’▇, whichever shall no longer then make the applicable Debt Rating.

Section 2.08           Facility Fees.

(a)           The Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the account of the Banks ratably in proportion to their respective Commitments a facility fee at the Facility Fee Rate (as defined below).  Such facility fee shall accrue from and including the date hereof to but excluding the Termination Date, on the daily aggregate amount of the Commitments (whether used or unused).

(b)           “Facility Fee Rate” means, at any date, a rate per annum equal to (i) 0.065%, if Level I Status exists at such date, (ii) 0.070%, if Level II Status exists at such

22

date, (iii) 0.075%, if Level III Status exists at such date, (iv) 0.100%, if Level IV Status exists at such date, and (v) 0.125% if Level V Status exists at such date.

(c)           Accrued fees under this Section shall be payable quarterly in arrears on each September 1, December 1, March 1 and June 1 and upon the respective Termination Date for each Bank (and, if later, the date the Loans shall be repaid in their entirety).

Section 2.09           Optional Termination or Reduction of Commitments.  The Borrower may, upon at least three Domestic Business Days’ notice to the Agent, (a) terminate the Commitments at any time, if no Loans are outstanding at such time, or (b) ratably reduce from time to time by an aggregate amount of $25,000,000 or any larger multiple of $5,000,000, the aggregate amount of the Commitments in excess of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Loans.

Section 2.10           Mandatory Termination of Commitments.  The Commitments of each Bank shall terminate on its respective Termination Date, and any Loans then outstanding (together with accrued interest thereon) shall be due and payable on such date.

Section 2.11           Optional Prepayments.

(a)           The Borrower may, upon at least one Domestic Business Day’s notice to the Agent, prepay any Base Rate Borrowing (or any Money Market Borrowing bearing interest at the Base Rate pursuant to Section 8.01(a)) in whole at any time, or from time to time in part in amounts aggregating $25,000,000 or any larger multiple of $5,000,000, by paying the principal amount to be prepaid together with accrued interest thereon to the date of prepayment.  Each such optional prepayment shall be applied to prepay ratably the Loans of the several Banks included in such Borrowing.

(b)           Except as provided in Sections 2.18 and 8.02, and subject to Section 2.13, the Borrower may not prepay all or any portion of the principal amount of any Fixed Rate Loan prior to the maturity thereof.

(c)           Upon receipt of a notice of prepayment pursuant to this Section, 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 2.12           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 San Francisco, California, without set-off, deduction, recoupment or counterclaim, to the Agent at its address referred to in Section 9.01.  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, the Domestic Loans or of 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 unless such Domestic Business Day occurs after the Termination Date, in which case the date for payment

23

thereof shall be the next preceding Domestic Business Day.  Whenever any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Euro-Dollar 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 occurs after the Termination 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 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 occurs after the Termination Date, in which case the date for payment thereof shall be the next preceding 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 2.13           Funding Losses.  If the Borrower makes any payment of principal with respect to any Fixed Rate Loan (pursuant to Section 2.16, Article 6 or 8 or otherwise) on any day other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, or the last day of an applicable period fixed pursuant to Section 2.07(d), or if the Borrower fails to borrow any Fixed Rate Loans after notice has been given to any Bank in accordance with Section 2.04(a), or if any Bank shall be required to assign to any other Bank any portion of a Committed Loan pursuant to Section 2.17(b), 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 incurred in obtaining, liquidating or employing deposits from third parties, but excluding loss of margin for the period after any such payment or failure to borrow, provided that such Bank shall have delivered to the Borrower a certificate as to the amount of such loss or expense, which certificate shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

Section 2.14           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 fees 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 2.15           Withholding Tax Exemption.

At least five Domestic Business Days prior to the first date on which interest or fees are payable hereunder for the account of any Bank, each Bank that is not incorporated under the laws of the United States of America or a state thereof agrees that it will deliver to each of the Borrower and the Agent two duly completed copies of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 (including Form W-8BEN or W-8EC1), certifying in either case that such Bank is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement and its Note, if applicable, without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes.  Each Bank which so delivers a Form W-8BEN or W-8EC1 further undertakes to deliver to the Agent on behalf of the Borrower two additional copies of such form (or a 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 such amendments thereto or extensions or renewals thereof as may be reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent, in each case certifying that such Bank is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement and its Notes, if applicable, without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes, unless an event (including without limitation any change in treaty, law or regulation) has occurred prior to the date on which any such delivery would otherwise be required which renders all such forms inapplicable or which would prevent such Bank from duly completing and delivering any such form with respect to it and such Bank advises the Borrower and the Agent that it is not capable of receiving payments without any deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax.

Section 2.16           Change of Control.  If a Change of Control shall occur (a) the Borrower will, within ten days after the occurrence thereof, give each Bank notice thereof and shall describe in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances giving rise thereto and (b) each Bank may, by three Domestic Business Days’ notice to the Borrower and the Agent given not later than 60 days after receipt of such notice of Change of Control, terminate its Commitment, which shall thereupon be terminated, and declare all of the outstanding Committed Loans and the Money Market Loans made by it (together with accrued interest thereon) and any other amounts payable hereunder for its account to be, and such Loans and such other amounts (including, without limitation, amounts payable under Section 2.13) 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.  For the purpose of this Section, a “Change of Control” shall occur if (i) a majority of the directors of the Borrower shall be Persons other than Persons (x) for whose election proxies shall have been solicited by the Board of Directors of the Borrower or (y) who are then serving as directors appointed by the Board of Directors to fill vacancies on the Board of Directors caused by death or resignation (but not by removal) or to fill newly-created directorships or (ii) any person or group of persons (within the meaning of Section 13 or 14 of the Exchange Act) shall have acquired beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Exchange Act) of 50% or more in voting power of the outstanding Voting Stock.

Section 2.17           Increase in Combined Commitments.

(a)           The Borrower shall have the right, without the consent of the Banks, subject to the terms of this Section 2.17, to effectuate from time to time, at any time prior to the then effective Termination Date, an increase in the combined Commitments under

25

this Agreement by adding to this Agreement one or more other banks or other financial institutions reasonably acceptable to the Agent and the Borrower and qualifying as an Assignee hereunder, who shall, upon completion of the requirements of this Section 2.17 constitute “Banks” hereunder (an “Added Bank”), or by allowing one or more Banks in their sole discretion to increase their respective Commitments hereunder (each an “Increasing Bank”), so that such added and increased Commitments shall equal the increase in Commitments effectuated pursuant to this Section 2.17; provided that (i) there shall not be any increased Commitment or any added Commitment, unless the aggregate increase or addition to be effected is at least $25,000,000, (ii) no increase in or added Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.17 shall result in combined Commitments exceeding $2,750,000,000, (iii) no Bank’s Commitment shall be increased under this Section 2.17 without the consent of such Bank, and (iv) there shall not exist any Default or Event of Default immediately prior to and immediately after giving effect to such increased or added Commitment.  The Borrower shall deliver or pay, as applicable, to the Agent not later than ten Domestic Business Days prior to any such increase in Commitments each of the following items with respect to each Added Bank and Increasing Bank:

(i)            a written notice of Borrower’s intention to increase the combined Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.17, which shall specify each Added Bank and Increasing Bank, if any, the changes in amounts of Commitments that will result, and such other information as is reasonably requested by the Agent;

(ii)           documents in the form of Exhibit E or Exhibit F, as may be required by the Agent, executed and delivered by each Added Bank and each Increasing Bank, pursuant to which it becomes a party hereto or increases its Commitment, as the case may be;

(iii)          if requested by the applicable Bank, Notes or replacement Notes, as the case may be, executed and delivered by Borrower; and

(iv)          a non-refundable processing fee of $3,500 with respect to each Added Bank or Increasing Bank for the sole account of the Agent.

(b)           Upon receipt of any notice referred to in clause (a)(i) above, the Agent shall promptly notify each Bank thereof.  Upon execution and delivery of such documents and the payment of such fee (the “Increased Commitment Date”), each such Added Bank shall constitute a “Bank” for all purposes under this Agreement and related documents without any acknowledgment by or the consent of the other Banks, with a Commitment as specified in such documents, or such Bank’s Commitment shall increase as specified in such documents, as the case may be.  Immediately upon the effectiveness of the addition of such Added Bank or the increase in the Commitment of such Increasing Bank under this Section 2.17, (i) the respective pro rata shares of the Banks shall be deemed modified as appropriate to correspond to such changed combined Commitments, and (ii) if there are at such time outstanding any Committed Loans, each Bank whose pro rata share has been decreased as a result of the increase in the combined Commitments shall be deemed to have assigned, without recourse, to each Added Bank and Increasing

26

Bank such portion of such Bank’s Committed Loans as shall be necessary to effectuate such adjustment in pro rata shares.  Each Increasing Bank and Added Bank (x) shall be deemed to have assumed such portion of such Committed Loans and (y) shall fund to each other Bank on the Increased Commitment Date the amount of Committed Loans assigned by it to such Bank.  The Borrower agrees to pay to the Banks on demand any and all amounts to the extent payable pursuant to Section 2.13 as a result of any such prepayment of Committed Loans occasioned by the foregoing increase in Commitments and the reallocation of the pro rata shares.

(c)           This section shall supercede any provisions in Section 9.06(b) to the contrary.

Section 2.18           Extension of Termination Date.

(a)           Requests for Extension.  The Borrower may, by notice to the Agent, given not earlier than 60 days prior to each of the first and second anniversaries of the Effective Date hereof (each such anniversary being referred to herein as an “Anniversary Date” and each such 60 day period prior to an Anniversary Date being referred to herein as a “Request Period”), request that each Bank extend its Commitment beyond such Bank’s Termination Date then in effect (the “Existing Termination Date”) for an additional one-year period from the Existing Termination Date; provided that no more than one such request may be made during each Request Period.  The Agent shall promptly notify each Bank of the Borrower’s request for such extension (the date such notice is given being referred to herein as the “Notice Date”).

(b)           Bank Elections to Extend.  Each Bank, acting in its sole discretion, shall, by notice to the Agent given not later than 30 days following the Notice Date, advise the Agent whether or not such Bank agrees to such extension (each such Bank that determines not to so extend its Commitment being referred to as a “Non-Extending Bank”)).  Any Bank that does not so advise the Agent on or before the 30th day following the Notice Date (the “Response Deadline”) shall be deemed to be a Non-Extending Bank.  The election of any Bank to agree to such extension of the Termination Date shall not obligate any other Bank to so agree.

(c)           Notification by Agent.  The Agent shall notify the Borrower of each Bank’s determination under this Section 2.18 no later than the 5th Domestic Business Day after the Response Deadline.

(d)           Additional Commitment Banks.  The Borrower shall have the right on or before the related Anniversary Date to replace each Non-Extending Bank with, and add as “Banks” under this Agreement in place thereof, one or more Assignees (each, an “Additional Commitment Bank”) as provided in Section 9.06, provided that each of such Additional Commitment Banks shall enter into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement pursuant to which such Additional Commitment Bank shall undertake a Commitment (and, if any such Additional Commitment Bank is already a Bank, its Commitment shall be in addition to such Bank’s Commitment hereunder on such date).

27

(e)           Minimum Extension Requirement.  If (and only if) the total of the Commitments of the Banks that have agreed to so extend the Termination Date (each, an “Extending Bank”) and the additional Commitments of the Additional Commitment Banks shall be more than 51% of the aggregate amount of the Commitments in effect immediately prior to the related Anniversary Date, then, effective as of the related Anniversary Date (but subject to the prior satisfaction of the conditions set forth in clause (f) below), the Termination Date of this Agreement and the Termination Date with respect to the Commitments of each Extending Bank and of each Additional Commitment Bank shall be extended to the date falling one year after the Existing Termination Date (except that, if such date is not a Domestic Business Day, such Termination Date as so extended shall be the next preceding Domestic Business Day) and each Additional Commitment Bank shall thereupon become a “Bank” for all purposes of this Agreement.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Commitment of each Non-Extending Bank shall remain in full force and effect until and shall terminate on the Existing Termination Date for such Non-Extending Bank, unless such Non-Extending Bank is replaced prior to the related Anniversary Date by an Additional Commitment Bank as provided in clause (d) above.

(f)            Conditions to Effectiveness of Extensions.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the extension of the Termination Date pursuant to this Section shall not be effective with respect to any Bank unless:

(i)            no Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such extension and after giving effect thereto;

(ii)           the representations and warranties of the Borrower contained in this Agreement that are qualified by materiality are true and correct and the representations and warranties of the Borrower contained in the Agreement that are not qualified by materiality are true and correct in all material respects, in each case on and as of the date of such extension and after giving effect thereto, as though made on and as of such date (or, if any such representation or warranty is expressly stated to have been made as of a specific date, as of such specific date);

(iii)          at the time of such extension no material adverse change has occurred since January 29, 2011 in the business, financial position or results of operations of the Borrower and its Consolidated Subsidiaries considered as a whole; and

(iv)          the chief financial officer, treasurer or assistant treasurer of the Borrower shall have delivered to the Agent a certificate, dated the Anniversary Date with respect to such extension, as to the matters referred to in clauses (i) through (iii) above.

(g)           Payment of Non-Extending Banks.  On the effective date of any extension of the Termination Date hereunder, the Borrower shall prepay any Committed Loans outstanding on such date (and pay any additional amounts required pursuant to Section

28

2.08 or 2.13) to the extent necessary to keep outstanding Committed Loans ratable with any revised pro rata allocation of the Commitments of the respective Banks effective as of such date.

(h)           Conflicting Provisions.  This Section shall supersede any provisions in Section 9.06 to the contrary.

Section 2.19           Defaulting Banks.

(a)           Adjustments.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Bank becomes a Defaulting Bank, then, until such time as that Bank is no longer a Defaulting Bank, to the extent permitted by applicable Law:

(i)            Waivers and Amendments.  That Defaulting Bank’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in Section 9.05.

(ii)           Reallocation of Payments.  Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Agent for the account of that Defaulting Bank (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article 6 or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to the Agent by that Defaulting Bank pursuant to Section 9.04, but excluding any amounts received from the Borrower under Section 2.04(d)), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Bank to the Agent hereunder; second, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which that Defaulting Bank has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Agent; third, if so determined by the Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of that Defaulting Bank to fund Loans under this Agreement; fourth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Banks as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Bank against that Defaulting Bank as a result of that Defaulting Bank’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; fifth, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against that Defaulting Bank as a result of that Defaulting Bank’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and sixth, to that Defaulting Bank or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided, however, notwithstanding the foregoing clauses first through sixth, if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans in respect of which that Defaulting Bank has not fully funded its appropriate share and (y) such Loans were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 3.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of all non-Defaulting Banks on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of that Defaulting Bank.  Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Bank that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a

29

Defaulting Bank pursuant to this Section 2.19(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by that Defaulting Bank, and each Bank irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii)          Certain Fees.  That Defaulting Bank shall be entitled to receive any facility fee pursuant to Section 2.08 for any period during which that Bank is a Defaulting Bank only to extent allocable to the outstanding principal amount of Loans funded by it (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay the remaining amount of such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Bank).

(b)           Defaulting Bank Cure.  If the Borrower and the Agent agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Bank should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Bank, the Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein, that Bank will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Banks or take such other actions as the Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Banks in proportion to their respective Commitments, whereupon that Bank will cease to be a Defaulting Bank; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Bank was a Defaulting Bank; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Bank to Bank will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Bank’s having been a Defaulting Bank.

Section 2.20           Evidence of Debt.  The Loans made by each Bank shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Bank and by the Agent in the ordinary course of business.  Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to its obligations hereunder.  In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Bank and the accounts and records of the Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error.

Section 5.06           Dividends.  The Borrower will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to, declare or pay any dividends, purchase or otherwise acquire for value any of its capital stock now or hereafter outstanding, or make any distribution of assets to its stockholders as such, or permit any of its Subsidiaries to purchase or otherwise acquire for value any of the capital stock of the Borrower, if any such action would result in a breach of a covenant or agreement

36

contained in, or default under, or constitute an event of default under, any other agreement then in effect between the Borrower and any Person relating to indebtedness for money borrowed.

Section 5.07           Negative Pledge.  The Borrower will not permit, at the end of any fiscal quarter, the aggregate amount of Debt of the Borrower and its Consolidated Subsidiaries, determined on a consolidated basis, secured by Liens (other than (a) Liens on Accounts Receivable and (b) any Lien on any asset securing Debt incurred or assumed for the purpose of financing all or any part of the cost of acquiring or constructing such asset, provided that such Lien attaches to such asset concurrently or within 120 days after the acquisition or completion of construction thereof) to exceed 20% of Consolidated Tangible Net Worth.

Section 5.08           Leverage Ratio.  The Borrower will not, at the end of any fiscal quarter of the Borrower, permit the ratio of (a) Total Finance Liabilities to (b) Total Capitalization to be greater than or equal to 3.0:4.0.

Section 5.09           Use of Proceeds.  The proceeds of the Loans made under this Agreement will be used, directly or indirectly, by the Borrower for its general corporate purposes and as a commercial paper backup facility.  None of such proceeds will be used, directly or indirectly, for the purpose, whether immediate, incidental or ultimate, of buying or carrying any “margin stock” within the meaning of Regulation U.

THE AGENT, THE CO-DOCUMENTATION AGENTS
AND THE SYNDICATION 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 and the Notes, if any, as are delegated to the Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with all such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.

Section 7.02           Agent and Affiliates.  Except as provided in Section 2.03(d), Bank of America 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 Bank of America 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.  The Banks acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, Bank of America or its affiliates may receive information regarding the Borrower or its affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of the Borrower or such affiliate) and acknowledge that the Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them.  With respect to its Loans, Bank of America shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Bank and may exercise such rights and powers as though it were not the Agent, and the terms “Bank” and “Banks” include Bank of America in its individual capacity.

Section 7.03           Action by Agent.  The obligations of the Agent hereunder are only those expressly set forth herein, and the Agent shall not be a trustee or fiduciary for any Bank; the term “Agent” is used solely as a matter of market custom to connote an administrative relationship among independent contracting parties.  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 6.

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.

39

Section 7.05           Liability of Agent.  Neither the Agent nor any of its affiliates nor any of their respective directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in connection herewith (a) with the consent or at the request of the Required Banks or all Banks, as the case may be, or (b) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct and in no event shall any such Person be liable for special, consequential, punitive or indirect damages.  Neither the Agent nor any of its affiliates nor any of their respective 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 3, except receipt of items required to be delivered to the Agent; or (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness, genuineness or sufficiency of this Agreement, the Notes, if any, or any other instrument or writing furnished in connection herewith.  Neither the Agent nor any of its affiliates nor any of their respective directors, officers, agents or employees shall be required to initiate or conduct any litigation or collection proceedings under this Agreement or the Notes, if any.  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) believed by it to be genuine or to be signed by the proper party or parties.

Section 7.06           Indemnification.  Each Bank shall, ratably in accordance with its Commitment (determined at the time such indemnification is sought), indemnify the Agent, its affiliates and their respective directors, officers, agent and employees (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower) from and against all Indemnified Liabilities, as defined in Section 9.03(b) (except such as result from such indemnitees’ gross negligence or willful misconduct; provided, however, that no action taken in accordance with directions of the Required Banks or, in the case of an action expressly requiring the consent of all of the Banks, with the directions of all of the Banks, shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section), that such indemnitees may suffer or incur in connection with this Agreement or as a result of any action taken or omitted by such indemnitees hereunder.  Without limitation of the foregoing, each Bank shall reimburse the Agent upon demand for its ratable share (determined at the time such reimbursement is sought) of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel, including the allocated costs of internal legal services) incurred by the Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that the Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of the Borrower.  The undertaking in this Section shall survive termination of the Commitments, the repayment of all Loans and the resignation of the Agent.

Section 7.07           Credit Decision.  Each Bank acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agent, any Co-Documentation Agent, the Syndication 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, any Co-Documentation Agent, the Syndication Agent or any other Bank, and based on such documents and information as it

40

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 notice thereof to the Banks and the Borrower.  Upon any such resignation, the Required Banks shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent.  If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Banks, 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 $50,000,000.  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 thereafter 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 Fee.  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.

Section 7.10           Co-Documentation Agents and Syndication Agent.  Nothing in this Agreement shall impose on any Co-Documentation Agent or Syndication Agent, in its capacity as such, any duties or obligations whatsoever, nor shall any Co-Documentation Agent or Syndication Agent, in its capacity as such be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Bank.

Section 7.11           Defaults.  The Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default unless the Agent has received written notice from a Bank or the Borrower specifying such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default”.  In the event that the Agent receives such a notice of the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default, the Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Banks.  The Agent shall (subject to Section 7.05 hereof) take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall reasonably be directed by the Required Banks, provided that, unless and until the Agent shall have received such directions, the Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interest of the Banks.

ARTICLE 8.
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 Fixed Rate Borrowing:

(a)           the Agent is advised by the Reference Banks that deposits in dollars (in the applicable amounts) are not being offered to the Reference Banks in the relevant market for such Interest Period, or

41

(b)           the Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive) that by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the interest rate for Euro-Dollar Loans for such Interest Period; or

(c)           in the case of a Committed Borrowing, Banks having 50% or more of the aggregate amount of the Commitments advise the Agent that the Adjusted CD Rate or the Adjusted London Interbank Offered Rate, as the case may be, as determined by the Agent will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Banks of funding their CD Loans or Euro-Dollar Loans, as the case may be, for such Interest Period;

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, the obligations of the Banks to make CD Loans or Euro-Dollar Loans, as the case may be, shall be suspended.  Unless the Borrower notifies the Agent at least one Domestic Business Day before the date of any Fixed Rate Borrowing for which a Notice of Borrowing has previously been given that it elects not to borrow on such date, (i) if such Fixed Rate Borrowing is a Committed Borrowing, such Borrowing shall instead be made as a Base Rate Borrowing and (ii) if such Fixed Rate 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 Euro-Dollar 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 shall be suspended.  Before giving any notice to the Agent pursuant to this Section, such Bank shall designate a different Euro-Dollar 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 Bank shall determine that it may not lawfully continue to maintain and fund any of its outstanding Euro-Dollar Loans to maturity and shall so specify in such notice, the Borrower shall immediately prepay in full the then outstanding principal amount of each such Euro-Dollar Loan, together with accrued interest thereon.  Concurrently with prepaying each such Euro-Dollar Loan, the Borrower shall, subject to Section 2.01, borrow a Base Rate Loan in an equal principal amount from such Bank (on which interest and principal shall be payable contemporaneously with the related Euro-Dollar Loans of the other Banks), and such Bank shall make such a Base Rate Loan.

42

Section 8.03           Increased Cost and Reduced Return.

(a)           If on or after (x) the date hereof in the case of any Committed Loan or any obligation to make Committed Loans or (y) the date of the related Money Market Quote, in the case of any Money Market Loan, 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 :

(i)            shall subject any Bank (or its Applicable Lending Office) to any tax, duty or other charge with respect to its Fixed Rate Loans, its Note, if any, or its obligation to make Fixed Rate Loans, or shall change the basis of taxation of payments to any Bank (or its Applicable Lending Office) of the principal of or interest on its Fixed Rate Loans or any other amounts due under this Agreement in respect of its Fixed Rate Loans or its obligation to make Fixed Rate Loans (except for changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of such Bank or its Applicable Lending Office imposed by the jurisdiction in which such Bank’s principal executive office or Applicable Lending Office is located); or

(ii)           shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve (including, without limitation, any such requirement imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, but excluding (A) with respect to any CD Loan any such requirement included in an applicable Domestic Reserve Percentage and (B) with respect to any Euro-Dollar Loan any such requirement included in an applicable Euro-Dollar Reserve Percentage), special deposit, insurance assessment (excluding, with respect to any CD Loan, any such requirement reflected in an applicable Assessment Rate) or similar requirement 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, its Note, if any, or its obligation to make 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, if any, with respect thereto, by an amount 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, after the date hereof the adoption of 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

43

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 authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on capital of such Bank (or its Parent) as a consequence of such Bank’s obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Bank (or its Parent) could have achieved but for such adoption, change, request or directive (taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Bank to be material, then from time to time, 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 (or its Parent) for such reduction.

(c)           Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) the ▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and (ii) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to be a change in law contemplated by the foregoing clauses (a) and (b) of this Section 8.03, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued.

(d)           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 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. A certificate of any Bank claiming compensation under this Section and setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. In determining such amount, such Bank may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.

Section 8.04           Base Rate Loans Substituted for Affected Fixed Rate Loans.  If (a) the obligation of any Bank to make, maintain or convert to Euro-Dollar Loans has been suspended pursuant to Section 8.02 or (b) any Bank has demanded compensation under Section 8.03 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 exist:

(a)           all Loans which would otherwise be made, maintained or converted by such Bank as CD Loans or Euro-Dollar Loans, as the case may be, shall be made, maintained or converted instead as Base Rate Loans (on which interest and principal shall be payable contemporaneously with the related Fixed Rate Loans of the other Banks), and

44

(b)           after each of its CD Loans or Euro-Dollar Loans, as the case may be, has been repaid or converted, all payments of principal which would otherwise be applied to repay such Fixed Rate Loans shall be applied to repay its Base Rate Loans instead.

Section 9.02           No Waivers; Enforcement.  No failure or delay by the Agent or any Bank in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any Note shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.  The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other document, instrument or agreements evidencing, securing or relating to this Agreement (together with this Agreement, collectively, the “Loan Documents”), the authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents against the Borrower shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, the Agent in accordance with Section 6.02 for the benefit of all the Banks; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit (a) the Agent from exercising on

(b)           The Borrower agrees to indemnify the Agent and each Bank, their respective affiliates and the respective directors, officers, agents, attorneys and employees of the foregoing (each an “Indemnitee”) and hold each Indemnitee harmless from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages, costs and expenses of any kind, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel, which may be incurred by such Indemnitee in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding (whether or not such Indemnitee shall be designated a party thereto) relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any actual or proposed use of proceeds of Loans hereunder (the “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided that no Indemnitee shall have the right to be indemnified hereunder for such Indemnitee’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct.  No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by others of information or other materials obtained through internet, Posting Website or other similarly available electronic media in connection with the electronic posting of financial statements, certificates, reports or other information to a Posting Website as provided for in Section 9.01 hereof unless such Indemnitee has engaged in gross negligence or willful misconduct.

Section 9.04           Sharing of Set-Off.  Each Bank agrees that if it shall, by exercising any right of set-off, recoupment, counterclaim or otherwise, receive payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of principal and interest then due with respect to any Loans held by it which is greater than the proportion received by any other Bank in respect of the aggregate amount of principal and interest then due with respect to any Loans held by such other Bank, the Bank receiving such proportionately greater payment (the “Benefited Bank”) shall purchase such participations in the Loans held by the other Banks, and such other adjustments shall be made, as may be required so that all such payments of principal and interest with respect to the Loans held by the Banks shall be shared by the Banks pro rata; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such Benefited Bank or is repaid in whole or in part by such Benefited Bank in good faith settlement of a pending or threatened avoidance

46

claim, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery or settlement payment, but without interest; further provided that nothing in this Section shall impair the right of any Bank 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 under this Agreement. The Borrower agrees, to the fullest extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any holder of a participation in a Loan, whether or not acquired pursuant to the foregoing arrangements, may exercise rights of set-off or counterclaim and other rights with respect to such participation as fully as if such holder of a participation were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any Defaulting Bank shall exercise any such right of setoff, recoupment, counterclaim or otherwise, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.19 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Bank from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Agent and the Banks, and (y) the Defaulting Bank shall provide promptly to the Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the obligations under this Agreement owing to such Defaulting Bank as to which it exercised such right of setoff, recoupment, counterclaim or otherwise.

Section 9.05           Amendments and Waivers.  Any provision of this Agreement or the Notes, if any, may be amended or waived if, but only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed by the Borrower and the Required Banks (and, if the rights or duties of the Agent are affected thereby, by the Agent); provided that no such amendment or waiver shall: (a) increase, decrease or extend the Commitment of any Bank (except for (i) a ratable decrease in the Commitments of all Banks, (ii) any increase in Commitments made pursuant to, and in compliance with, Sections 2.17 and 2.18, as applicable, and (iii) any extension made pursuant to, and in compliance with, Section 2.18) or subject any Bank to any additional obligation, without the written consent of such Bank; (b) reduce the principal of or rate of interest on any Loan or any fees or margins hereunder (subject to the second proviso to this Section 9.05), without the written consent of each Bank directly affected thereby (provided, however, that only the consent of the Required Banks shall be necessary (i) to amend the rate payable as default interest hereunder or to waive any obligation of the Borrower to pay interest at such default rate, or (ii) to amend Section 5.07 or 5.08 (or any defined term used therein) even if the effect of such amendment would be to reduce the rate of interest on any Loan or to reduce any fee payable hereunder); (c) postpone the date fixed for any payment of principal of or interest on any Loan or any fees hereunder or for the Termination Date (except pursuant to, and in compliance with Section 2.18 hereof), without the written consent of each Bank directly affected thereby; (d) change the percentage of the Commitments or of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Loans, or the number of Banks, which shall be required for the Banks or any of them to take any action under this Section or any other provision of this Agreement, without the written consent of each Bank; (e) consent to the assignment or transfer by the Borrower of any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, without the written consent of each Bank; or (f) amend, modify or waive Section 9.04 or this Section 9.05 without the written consent of each Bank; provided further, however, that the Fee Letter may be amended, or rights or privileges thereunder waived, in a writing executed only by the parties thereto.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Bank shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder (and any amendment, waiver or consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Banks or each affected Bank may be effected with the consent

47

of the applicable Banks other than Defaulting Banks), except that (x) the Commitment of any Defaulting Bank may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Bank and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Banks or each affected Bank that by its terms affects any Defaulting Bank disproportionately adversely relative to other affected Banks shall require the consent of such Defaulting Bank.

Section 9.06           Successors and Assigns.

(a)           The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Agent and each Bank, and no Bank may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an Assignee in accordance with the provisions of subsection (c) and (d) of this Section, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of subsection (b) of this Section, or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of subsection (e) or (g) of this Section (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void).  Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in subsection (b) of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Indemnitees) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b)           Any Bank may at any time grant to one or more banks, Approved Funds or other institutions (other than a Defaulting Bank or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Bank hereunder, would constitute a Defaulting Bank) (each a “Participant”) participating interests in its Commitment or any or all of its Loans.  In the event of any such grant by a Bank of a participating interest to a Participant, whether or not upon notice to the Borrower and the Agent, such Bank shall remain responsible for the performance of its obligations hereunder, and the Borrower and the Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Bank in connection with such Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.  Any agreement pursuant to which any Bank may grant such a participating interest shall provide that such Bank shall retain the sole right and responsibility to enforce the obligations of the Borrower hereunder including, without limitation, the right to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such participation agreement may provide that such Bank will not agree to any modification, amendment or waiver of this Agreement described in clause (a), (b) or (c) of Section 9.05 without the consent of the Participant.  The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall, to the extent provided in its participation agreement, be entitled to the benefits of Article 8 with respect to its participating interest. An assignment or other transfer which is not permitted by subsection (c) or (d) below shall be given effect for purposes of this Agreement only to the extent of a participating interest granted in accordance with this subsection (b).

(c)           Any Bank may at any time assign to one or more banks, Approved Funds or other institutions (other a Defaulting Bank or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person

48

who, upon becoming a Bank hereunder, would constitute a Defaulting Bank) (each an “Assignee”) all, or a proportionate part of all, of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and its Notes, if any, and such Assignee shall assume such rights and obligations, pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption Agreement in substantially the form of Exhibit I hereto (an “Assignment and Assumption Agreement”) executed by such Assignee and such transferor Bank, with and subject to the subscribed consents of the Agent and (so long as an Event of Default has not occurred and is continuing) the Borrower, which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided that (i) such assignment may, but need not, include rights of the transferor Bank in respect of outstanding Money Market Loans and (ii) no interest may be assigned by a Bank pursuant to this subsection (c) in an amount less than $15,000,000 unless (A) such lesser amount constitutes all of such assigning Bank’s Commitment, or (B) the Agent and (so long as an Event of Default has not occurred and is continuing) the Borrower, in its sole discretion, otherwise consent to a lesser amount. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Assignee is an affiliate of a Bank or a Bank, (x) the subscribed consents of the Borrower and the Agent shall not be required and (y) the limitations set forth in clause (ii) above shall not be applicable.  In all cases, any assignment to any Approved Fund requires the consent of the Borrower, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Upon execution and delivery of such instrument and payment by such Assignee to such transferor Bank of an amount equal to the purchase price agreed between such transferor Bank and such Assignee, such Assignee shall be a Bank party to this Agreement and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Bank with a Commitment as set forth in such instrument of assumption, and the transferor Bank shall be released from its obligations hereunder to a corresponding extent (and, in the case of an assignment covering all of the assigning Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Bank shall cease to be a party hereto) and no further consent or action by any party shall be required, but the transferor Bank shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Article 8 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment.  Upon the consummation of any assignment pursuant to this subsection (c), the transferor Bank, the Agent and the Borrower shall make appropriate arrangements so that, if required, a new Note is issued to the Assignee.  Except as otherwise provided herein, in connection with any such assignment, the transferor Bank shall pay to the Agent an administrative fee for processing such assignment in the amount of $3,500, unless waived by the Agent in its sole discretion.  If the Assignee is not incorporated under the laws of the United States of America or a state thereof, it shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent certification as to exemption from deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes in accordance with Section 2.15.

The Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an Agent of the Borrower (and such agency being solely for tax purposes), shall maintain at the Agent’s principal office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption Agreement delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Banks, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Loans owing to, each Bank pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”).  The entries in the Register as to the identity of the Banks and their respective Commitments shall be conclusive absent manifest error, 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.  In addition, the Agent

49

shall maintain on the Register information regarding the designation, and revocation of designation, of any Bank as a Defaulting Bank.  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.  In addition, at any time that a request for a consent for a material or substantive change to this Agreement is pending, any Bank wishing to consult with other Banks in connection therewith may request and receive from the Agent a copy of the Register.

(d)           In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Bank hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Bank, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Bank to the Agent or any Bank hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans in proportion to its Commitment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Bank hereunder shall become effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Bank for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

(e)           Any Bank may at any time assign all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and its Note, if any, to a Federal Reserve Bank.  No such assignment shall release the transferor Bank from its obligations hereunder.

(f)            No Assignee, Participant or other transferee of any Bank’s rights shall be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 8.03 than such Bank would have been entitled to receive with respect to the rights transferred, unless such transfer is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent or by reason of the provisions of Section 8.02 or 8.03 requiring such Bank to designate a different Applicable Lending Office under certain circumstances or at a time when the circumstances giving rise to such greater payment did not exist.

(g)           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Bank that is an Approved Fund may create a security interest in all or any portion of the Loans owing to it and the Note, if any, held by it to the trustee for the holders of obligations owed, or securities issued, by such Fund as security for such obligations or securities, provided that unless and until such trustee actually becomes a Bank in compliance with the other provisions of Section 9.06(c), (i) no such pledge shall release the pledging Bank from any of its obligations under this Agreement and (ii) such trustee shall not be entitled to exercise any of the rights of a Bank under this Agreement, including but not limited to rights to approve amendments, waivers or other modifications of any provision of this Agreement, even though such trustee may have acquired ownership rights with respect to the pledged interest through foreclosure or otherwise.

50

(h)           The words “execution”, “signed”, “signature”, and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption Agreement shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

Section 9.07           Collateral.  Each of the Banks represents to the Agent and each of the other Banks that it in good faith is not relying upon any “margin stock” (as defined in Regulation U) as collateral in the extension or maintenance of the credit provided for in this Agreement.

Section 9.08           Replacement of Banks.  (a)  If any Bank requests compensation under Section 8.03, or if the obligation of any Bank to make Euro-Dollar Loans has been suspended pursuant to Section 8.02, or if any Bank is a Defaulting Bank, or if any Bank is a Non-Extending Bank for any extension of the Termination Date, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Bank and the Agent, require such Bank to assign and delegate without unreasonable delay, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 9.06), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Bank, if a Bank accepts such assignment), provided that:

(i)            the Borrower shall have paid to the Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 9.06(c) (except as otherwise provided herein); provided that any Defaulting Bank shall pay to the Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 9.06(c);

(ii)           such Bank shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder (including any amounts under Section 2.13) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);

(iii)          in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation by a Bank under Section 8.03, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments that would otherwise result thereafter; and

(iv)          such assignment does not conflict with applicable laws.

A Bank shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Bank or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

(b)           In the event any Bank fails to approve any amendment, waiver or consent requested by the Borrower pursuant to Section 9.05 that has received the written approval of not less than the Required Banks but also requires the approval of such Bank (any such

51

Bank, a “Restricted Bank”), so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Borrower has obtained a commitment (in an amount not less than the entire amount of such Restricted Bank’s Commitment) from one or more Banks or Assignees to become a Bank for all purposes hereunder (such Bank or Banks referred to as the “Replacement Bank”), the Borrower may cause such Restricted Bank to be replaced by, and to assign all its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including its Commitment and its outstanding Loans) pursuant to Section 9.06 to, such Replacement Bank.  Such Restricted Bank agrees to execute and to deliver to the Agent one or more Assignment and Assumption Agreements with such Replacement Bank as provided in Section 9.06 upon payment at par of all principal, accrued interest, accrued fees and other amounts accrued or owing under this Agreement to such Restricted Bank, and such Replacement Bank shall pay to the Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 9.06(c) in connection with such assignment.  The Restricted Bank making such assignment will be entitled to compensation for any expenses or other amounts which would be owing to such Restricted Bank pursuant to any indemnification provision hereof (including, if applicable, Section 2.13) as if the Borrower had prepaid the Loans of such Bank (and terminated its Commitment, if applicable) rather than such Restricted Bank having assigned its interest hereunder.

(c)           In each case of clause (a) and (b) above, the Agent shall distribute an amended schedule of Commitments, which shall be deemed incorporated into this Agreement, to reflect changes in the identities of the Banks and adjustments of their respective Commitments and/or shares thereof resulting from any such replacement.

(d)           This section shall supersede any provision in Section 9.05 to the contrary.

Section 9.09           Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction.  This Agreement and each Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.  The Borrower hereby submits to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York and of any New York State court sitting in New York City for purposes of all legal proceedings arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.  The Borrower irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such proceeding brought in such a court and any claim that any such proceeding brought in such a court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

Section 9.10           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 9.11           Confidentiality.  Each Bank agrees to exercise all reasonable efforts to keep any Information delivered or made available by the Borrower to it which is clearly indicated to be confidential information, confidential from anyone other than Persons employed or retained by such Bank who are or are expected to become engaged in evaluating, approving, structuring or administering the Loans; provided that nothing herein shall prevent any Bank from

52

disclosing such Information (a) to any of its affiliates or any other Bank or affiliate thereof, (b) to its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys and accountants who have a need to know such Information in accordance with customary banking practices and who receive such Information having been made aware of the restrictions set forth in this Section, (c) upon the order of any court or administrative agency, (d) upon the request or demand of any regulatory agency or authority having jurisdiction over such Bank or its affiliates, (e) as required by any applicable law, rule or regulation, (f) to any other Person if reasonably necessary to the administration of the credit facility provided herein, (g) which has been publicly disclosed, (h) to the extent reasonably required in connection with any litigation to which the Agent, any Bank, the Borrower or their respective affiliates may be a party, (i) to the extent reasonably required in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder, (j) to such Bank’s legal counsel and independent auditors, (k) with the prior written consent of the Borrower, and (l) to any actual or proposed Participant or Assignee of all or part of its rights hereunder which has agreed in writing to be bound by the provisions of this Section.  For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Borrower relating to the Borrower or any of its business, other than any such information that is available to the Agent or any Bank on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower, provided that, in the case of information received from the Borrower after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential.

Section 9.12           No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility.  In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), the Borrower acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Affiliates’ understanding, that: (i) (A) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by the Agent and the Arrangers are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Borrower and its affiliates, on the one hand, and the Agent and the Arrangers, on the other hand, (B) the Borrower has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate, and (C) the Borrower is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; (ii) (A) each of the Agent and the Arrangers is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for the Borrower or any of its affiliates, or any other Person and (B) neither the Agent nor any Arranger has any obligation to the Borrower or any of its affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; and (iii) the Agent, the Arrangers and their respective affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Borrower and its affiliates, and neither the Agent nor any Arranger has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to the Borrower or any of its affiliates.

Section 9.13           USA PATRIOT Act Notice.  Each Bank that is subject to the Act (as hereinafter defined) and the Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Bank) hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Bank or the Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrower in accordance with the Act. The Borrower shall, promptly following a request by

53

the Agent or any Bank, provide all documentation and other information that the Agent or such Bank requests in order to comply with its ongoing obligations under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the Act.
