Item�1.01. Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Competitive Advance and Revolving Credit Facility Agreement

On November�25, 2014, ITT Corporation (the �Company�), as borrower, entered into a Five-Year Competitive Advance and Revolving Credit Facility Agreement (the �2014 Credit Agreement�), a senior unsecured revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $500,000,000, with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, Citibank, N.A., as syndication agent, and the lenders party thereto. The 2014 Credit Agreement replaces the Company�s Four-Year Competitive Advance Revolving Credit Facility Agreement, dated as of October�25, 2011, effective as of October�31, 2011 (the �Existing Credit Agreement�).

The 2014 Credit Agreement provides for increases of up to $200,000,000 for a possible maximum total of $700,000,000 in aggregate principal amount at the request of the Company and with the consent of the institutions providing such increased commitments. The facility made available by the 2014 Credit Agreement will be for working capital and other general corporate purposes, and is intended to be a source of funding for the Company�s commercial paper program, if needed.

Two borrowing options are available under the 2014 Credit Agreement: (i)�a competitive advance option and (ii)�a revolving credit option. The interest rates for the competitive advance option will be obtained from bids in accordance with competitive auction procedures. The interest rates under the revolving credit option will be based either on LIBOR plus spreads, which reflect the Company�s debt ratings, or on the Administrative Agent�s Alternate Base Rate. Borrowings under the 2014 Credit Agreement are available upon customary terms and conditions for facilities of this type, including a requirement to maintain a ratio of consolidated EBITDA to consolidated interest expense to be not less than 3.00 to 1.00 and a requirement to maintain a leverage ratio to be not greater than 3.00 to 1.00. These ratios are consistent with those in the Existing Credit Agreement.

Amounts due under the 2014 Credit Agreement may be accelerated, among other things, upon an event of default such as a breach of a covenant, material inaccuracy of a representation or the occurrence of bankruptcy, if not otherwise waived or cured.

The Company will guarantee the obligations of any of its subsidiaries who become subsidiary borrowers. In addition, if at any time more than ten days after the 2014 Credit Agreement the Company does not have certain investment-grade ratings of its senior, unsecured, non-credit enhance long term debt or its corporate ratings, the significant domestic subsidiaries of the Company will jointly and severally guarantee the obligations of the Company and any subsidiary borrowers under the 2014 Credit Agreement.

The foregoing description of the 2014 Credit Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the 2014 Credit Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

The 2014 Credit Agreement has been filed with this report to provide investors and security holders with information regarding its terms and is not intended to provide any other factual information about the Company. Representations, warranties and covenants in the 2014 Credit Agreement were made only for purposes of the 2014 Credit Agreement, were solely for the benefit of the parties to the


2014 Credit Agreement, and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties, including being qualified by confidential disclosures exchanged between the parties in connection with the execution of the 2014 Credit Agreement. Representations and warranties in the 2014 Credit Agreement may have been made as of specific dates and for purposes of allocating contractual risk between the parties instead of establishing matters as facts, and may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to investors. Investors are not third-party beneficiaries under the 2014 Credit Agreement and should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants or any descriptions thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations and warranties may change after the date of the 2014 Credit Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in the Company�s public disclosures.

Item�2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

The information set forth in Item�1.01 is incorporated herein by reference.

FIVE-YEAR COMPETITIVE ADVANCE AND REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITY AGREEMENT (as it may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, the �Agreement�) dated as of November 25, 2014, among ITT CORPORATION, an Indiana corporation (the �Company�); each Borrowing Subsidiary party hereto; the lenders listed in Schedule�2.01 (together with their successors and permitted assigns, the �Lenders�); and JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A., as Administrative Agent.

The Lenders have been requested to extend credit to the Borrowers (such term and each other capitalized term used but not otherwise defined herein having the meaning assigned to it in Article I) to enable the Borrowers (a)�to borrow on a standby revolving credit basis on and after the date hereof and at any time and from time to time prior to the Maturity Date a principal amount that will not result in the Aggregate Credit Exposure exceeding $500,000,000 at any time outstanding and (b)�to request the issuance of Letters of Credit for the accounts of the Borrowers that will not result in the L/C Exposure exceeding $100,000,000 at any time outstanding. The Lenders have also been requested to provide procedures pursuant to which the Borrowers may invite the Lenders to bid on an uncommitted basis on short-term borrowings by the Borrowers. The proceeds of such borrowings are to be used for working capital and other general corporate purposes and to repay any amounts outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement. The Letters of Credit shall support payment obligations incurred in the ordinary course of business by the Borrowers. The Lenders are willing to extend credit on the terms and subject to the conditions herein set forth.

Accordingly, the parties hereto agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

DEFINITIONS

SECTION 1.01. Defined Terms. As used in this Agreement, the following terms shall have the meanings specified below:

ABR Borrowing� shall mean a Revolving Borrowing comprised of ABR Loans.

ABR Loan� shall mean any Revolving Loan bearing interest at a rate determined by reference to the Alternate Base Rate in accordance with the provisions of Article�II.

Accession Agreement� shall have the meaning assigned to such term in Section�2.12(e).

Administrative Agent� shall mean JPMCB, in its capacity as administrative agent for the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, or any successor appointed in accordance with Article�VIII. Unless the context requires otherwise, the term �Administrative Agent� shall include any Affiliate of JPMCB through which JPMCB shall determine to perform any of its obligations in such capacity hereunder in accordance with Article VIII.


Administrative Fees� shall have the meaning assigned to such term in Section�2.07(b).

Adjusted LIBO Rate� means, with respect to any LIBOR Borrowing (including any notional LIBOR Borrowing of one month referred to in the definition of the term �Alternate Base Rate�) for any Interest Period, an interest rate per annum (rounded upwards, if necessary, to the next 1/100 of 1%) equal to (a)�the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period multiplied by (b)�the Statutory Reserve Rate.

Administrative Questionnaire� shall mean an Administrative Questionnaire in the form supplied by the Administrative Agent.

Affiliate� shall mean, when used with respect to a specified Person, another Person that directly or indirectly controls or is controlled by or is under common control with the Person specified.

Aggregate Credit Exposure� shall mean the aggregate amount of all the Lenders� Credit Exposures.

Agreement Currency� shall have the meaning assigned to such term in Section�10.16(b).

Alternate Base Rate� shall mean, for any day, a rate per annum (rounded upwards, if necessary, to the next 1/16 of 1%) equal to the greatest of (a)�the Prime Rate in effect on such day, (b)�the Federal Funds Effective Rate in effect on such day plus �1D2 of 1%�per annum and (c)�the Adjusted LIBO Rate (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not include the Applicable Percentage with respect to Eurocurrency Loans) on such day (or if such day is not a Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day) for a deposit in dollars with a maturity of one month plus 1%�per annum. For purposes hereof, �Prime Rate� shall mean the rate of interest per annum publicly announced from time to time by the Administrative Agent as its prime rate in effect at its principal office in New�York City; each change in the Prime Rate shall be effective on the date such change is publicly announced as effective. �Federal Funds Effective Rate� shall mean, for any day, the weighted average of the rates on overnight Federal funds transactions with members of the Federal Reserve System arranged by Federal funds brokers, as released on the next succeeding Business Day by the Federal Reserve Bank of New�York, or, if such rate is not so released for any day which is a Business Day, the arithmetic average (rounded upwards to the next 1/100th of 1%), as determined by the Administrative Agent, of the quotations for the day of such transactions received by the Administrative Agent from three Federal funds brokers of recognized standing selected by it. If for any reason the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that it is unable to ascertain the Federal Funds Effective Rate for any reason, including the inability or failure of the Administrative Agent to obtain sufficient quotations in accordance with the terms thereof, the Alternate Base Rate shall be determined without regard to clause�(b) of the first sentence of this definition until the circumstances giving rise to such inability no longer exist. For purposes of

2


clause (c)�above, the Adjusted LIBO Rate on any day shall be based on the rate per annum appearing on the applicable Reuters screen page (currently page LIBOR01) displaying interest rates for dollar deposits in the London interbank market (or, in the event such rate does not appear on a page of the Reuters screen, on the appropriate page of such other information service that publishes such rate as shall be selected by the Administrative Agent from time to time in its reasonable discretion) at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on such day for deposits in dollars with a maturity of one month; provided that if such rate shall be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero. Any change in the Alternate Base Rate due to a change in the Prime Rate, the Federal Funds Effective Rate or the Adjusted LIBO Rate shall be effective on the effective date of such change in the Prime Rate, the Federal Funds Effective Rate, or the Adjusted LIBO Rate, respectively.

Alternative Currency� shall mean Euro and Sterling.

Alternative Currency Loan� shall mean any Revolving Loan denominated in an Alternative Currency.

Anti-Corruption Laws� shall mean all laws, rules, and regulations of any jurisdiction applicable to the Company or the Subsidiaries from time to time concerning or relating to bribery, corruption or money laundering.

Applicable Percentage� shall mean on any date, with respect to LIBOR Loans, EURIBOR Loans, ABR Loans, the Facility Fee or the L/C Participation Fee, as the case may be, the applicable percentage set forth below under the caption �LIBO/EURIBO Rate Spread,� �Alternate Base Rate Spread�, �Facility Fee Percentage� or �L/C Participation Fee Percentage,� as the case may be, based upon the Ratings in effect on such date:

For purposes of the foregoing:�(a) if Fitch shall for any reason not have a Rating in effect, then the LIBO/EURIBO Rate Spread, Alternate Base Rate Spread, Facility Fee Percentage and L/C Participation Fee Percentage shall be determined by reference to the Rating or Ratings remaining available or deemed to be available as provided below (and Fitch will not be deemed to have a Rating available),�(b) if either Moody�s or S&P shall merge with or into or be acquired by another Rating Agency, or shall cease to be in the business of rating corporate debt obligations, or shall otherwise cease to have a Rating in effect notwithstanding the Company�s use of commercially reasonable efforts to cause such a Rating to be maintained in effect, then the LIBO/EURIBO Rate Spread, Alternate Base Rate Spread, Facility Fee Percentage and L/C Participation Fee Percentage shall be determined by reference to the Rating of the other such Rating Agency; (c)�if either Moody�s or S&P shall not have a Rating in effect for a reason other than one of the reasons set forth in the preceding clause (b), such Rating Agency shall be deemed to have a Rating available and such Rating shall be deemed to be in Category 5; (d)�if the Ratings available or deemed to be available shall fall in different Categories, then (i)�if Ratings are available or deemed to be available from all three Rating Agencies, the LIBO/EURIBO Rate Spread, Alternate Base Rate Spread, Facility Fee Percentage and L/C Participation Fee Percentage shall be determined by reference to the highest Category achieved or exceeded by at least two of the three Ratings and (ii)�if Ratings are available or deemed to be available from only two Rating Agencies, the LIBO/EURIBO Rate Spread, Alternate Base Rate Spread, Facility Fee Percentage and L/C Participation Fee Percentage shall be determined by reference to the higher of the two Ratings or, if the Ratings differ by more than one Category, the Category one level below that corresponding to the higher of the two Ratings, (e)�if a Rating is available or deemed to be available from only one Rating Agency, the LIBO/EURIBO Rate Spread, Alternate Base Rate Spread, Facility Fee Percentage and L/C Participation Fee Percentage shall be determined by reference to that Rating; and (f)�if any Rating shall be changed (other than as a result of a change in the rating system of the applicable Rating Agency), such change shall be effective as of the date on which it is first announced by the Rating Agency making such change. Each change in the Applicable Percentage shall apply to all outstanding LIBO/EURIBO Rate Loans and ABR Loans and to L/C Participation Fees and Facility Fees accruing during the period commencing on the effective date of such change and ending on the date immediately preceding the effective date of the next such change. If the rating system of any Rating Agency shall change, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to amend the references to specific ratings in this definition to reflect such changed rating system and, pending the effectiveness of any such amendment, the Applicable Percentage shall be determined by reference to the Rating most recently in effect from such Rating Agency prior to such change.

Applicable Share� of any Lender at any time shall mean the percentage of the Total Commitment represented by such Lender�s Commitment; provided that in the case of Section�2.22 when a Defaulting Lender shall exist, �Applicable Share� shall mean the percentage of the Total Commitments (disregarding any Defaulting Lender�s Commitment) represented by such Lender�s Commitment. If the Commitments shall be

4


terminated pursuant to Article VII, the Applicable Shares of the Lenders shall be based upon the Commitments in effect, giving effect to any assignments and to any Revolving Lender�s status as a Defaulting Lender at the time of determination.

(a)�Each Revolving Loan shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Revolving Loans made by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Commitments; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender to make any Revolving Loan shall not in itself relieve any other Lender of its obligation to lend hereunder (it being understood, however, that no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make any Loan required to be made by such other Lender). Each Competitive Loan shall be made in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section�2.03.

No ABR Loan shall be requested in, or made pursuant to, a Competitive Bid Request. A Competitive Bid Request that does not conform substantially to the format of Exhibit�A-1 may be rejected in the Administrative Agent�s sole discretion, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the applicable Borrower of such rejection by fax. Each Competitive Bid Request shall refer to this Agreement and specify (A)�whether the Borrowing then being requested is to be a Eurocurrency Borrowing or a Fixed Rate Borrowing, (B)�the date of such Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), (C)�the currency of the requested Borrowing (which shall be Dollars or a Non-US Currency), (D)�the aggregate principal amount of the requested Borrowing (which shall be an integral multiple of 1,000,000 units of the applicable currency with a Dollar Equivalent on the date of the applicable Competitive Bid Request of at least $10,000,000), and (E)�the Interest Period with respect thereto (which may not end after the Maturity Date). Promptly after its receipt of a Competitive Bid Request that is not rejected as aforesaid, the Administrative Agent shall fax to the Lenders a Notice of Competitive Bid Request inviting the Lenders to bid, on the terms and conditions of this Agreement, to make Competitive Loans.

(b) Each Lender invited to bid may, in its sole discretion, make one or more Competitive Bids to the applicable Borrower responsive to such Borrower�s Competitive Bid Request. Each Competitive Bid by a Lender must be received by the Administrative Agent by fax, in the form of Exhibit�A-3 hereto, (i)�in the case of a

31


Eurocurrency Competitive Loan, not later than 9:30�a.m., New�York City time, three Business Days before a proposed Competitive Borrowing and (ii)�in the case of a Fixed Rate Borrowing, not later than 9:30�a.m., New�York City time, on the day of a proposed Competitive Borrowing. A Lender may submit multiple bids to the Administrative Agent. Competitive Bids that do not conform substantially to the format of Exhibit�A-3 may be rejected by the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall notify the Lender making such nonconforming bid of such rejection as soon as practicable. Each Competitive Bid shall refer to this Agreement and specify (x)�the principal amount (which shall be an integral multiple of 1,000,000 units of the applicable currency and which may equal the entire principal amount of the Competitive Borrowing requested) of the Competitive Loan or Loans that the Lender is willing to make, (y)�the Competitive Bid Rate or Rates at which the Lender is prepared to make the Competitive Loan or Loans and (z)�the Interest Period and the last day thereof. If any Lender invited to bid shall elect not to make a Competitive Bid, such Lender shall so notify the Administrative Agent by fax (I)�in the case of Eurocurrency Competitive Loans, not later than 9:30�a.m., New�York City time, three Business Days before a proposed Competitive Borrowing, and (II)�in the case of Fixed Rate Loans, not later than 9:30�a.m., New�York City time, on the day of a proposed Competitive Borrowing; provided, however, that failure by any Lender to give such notice shall not cause such Lender to be obligated to make any Competitive Loan as part of such Competitive Borrowing. A Competitive Bid submitted by a Lender pursuant to this paragraph�(b) shall be irrevocable.

(c) The Administrative Agent shall as promptly as practicable notify the applicable Borrower, by fax, of all the Competitive Bids made, the Competitive Bid Rate and the principal amount of each Competitive Loan in respect of which a Competitive Bid was made and the identity of the Lender that made each bid. The Administrative Agent shall send a copy of all Competitive Bids to the applicable Borrower for its records as soon as practicable after completion of the bidding process set forth in this Section�2.03.

(d) The applicable Borrower may in its sole and absolute discretion, subject only to the provisions of this paragraph�(d), accept or reject any Competitive Bid referred to in paragraph�(c) above. The applicable Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent by telephone, confirmed by fax in the form of a Competitive Bid Accept/Reject Letter, whether and to what extent it has decided to accept or reject any or all of the bids referred to in paragraph�(c) above not more than one hour after it shall have been notified of such bids by the Administrative Agent pursuant to such paragraph (c); provided, however, that (i)�the failure of the applicable Borrower to give such notice shall be deemed to be a rejection of all the bids referred to in paragraph�(c) above, (ii)�the applicable Borrower shall not accept a bid made at a particular Competitive Bid Rate if it has decided to reject a bid made at a lower Competitive Bid Rate, (iii)�the aggregate amount of the Competitive Bids accepted by the applicable Borrower shall not exceed the principal amount specified in the Competitive Bid Request, (iv)�if the applicable Borrower shall accept a bid or bids made at a particular Competitive Bid Rate but the amount of such bid or bids shall cause the total amount of bids to be accepted to exceed the amount specified in the Competitive Bid Request, then the applicable Borrower shall accept a portion of such bid or bids in an amount equal to the amount specified in the Competitive Bid Request less the amount of all other Competitive Bids accepted with

32


respect to such Competitive Bid Request, which acceptance, in the case of multiple bids at such Competitive Bid Rate, shall be made pro�rata in accordance with the amount of each such bid at such Competitive Bid Rate, and (v)�except pursuant to clause�(iv) above, no bid shall be accepted for a Competitive Loan unless such Competitive Loan is in an amount that is an integral multiple of 1,000,000 units of the applicable currency, and in calculating the pro�rata allocation of acceptances of portions of multiple bids at a particular Competitive Bid Rate pursuant to clause�(iv) above, the amounts shall be rounded to integral multiples of 1,000,000 units of the applicable currency in a manner which shall be in the discretion of the applicable Borrower. A notice given pursuant to this paragraph�(d) shall be irrevocable.

(e) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each bidding Lender whether or not its Competitive Bid has been accepted (and if so, in what amount and at what Competitive Bid Rate) by fax, and each successful bidder will thereupon become bound, subject to the other applicable conditions hereof, to make the Competitive Loan in respect of which its bid has been accepted.

(f) No Competitive Borrowing shall be requested or made hereunder if after giving effect thereto (i)�the Aggregate Credit Exposure would exceed the Total Commitment or (ii)�in the event the Maturity Date shall have been extended as provided in Section�2.12(d), the sum of the L/C Exposures attributable to Letters of Credit expiring after any Existing Maturity Date and the Competitive Loan Exposures attributable to Competitive Loans maturing after such Existing Maturity Date would exceed the aggregate Commitments that have been extended to a date after the expiration date of the last of such Letters of Credit and the maturity of the last of such Competitive Loans.

(g) If the Administrative Agent shall elect to submit a Competitive Bid in its capacity as a Lender, it shall submit such bid directly to the applicable Borrower one quarter of an hour earlier than the latest time at which the other Lenders are required to submit their bids to the Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph�(b) above.

SECTION 2.04. Revolving Borrowing Procedure. In order to request a Revolving Borrowing, a Borrower shall hand deliver or fax to the Administrative Agent a duly completed Revolving Borrowing Request in the form of Exhibit�A-5 (i)�in the case of a Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing, not later than 10:30�a.m., Local Time, three Business Days before such Borrowing, and (ii)�in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 2:00�p.m., Local Time, on the day of such Borrowing. No Fixed Rate Loan shall be requested or made pursuant to a Revolving Borrowing Request. Such notice shall be irrevocable and shall in each case specify (A)�whether the Borrowing then being requested is to be a Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing or an ABR Borrowing; (B)�the currency of such Borrowing (which shall be Dollars or an Alternative Currency); (C)�the date of such Revolving Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day) and the amount thereof; and (D)�if such Borrowing is to be a Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing, the Interest Period with respect thereto. If no election as to the Type of Revolving Borrowing is specified in any such notice, then the requested Revolving Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing. If no Interest Period with respect to any Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing is specified in any such notice, then the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month�s duration. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, no Revolving Borrowing shall be requested

33


if the Interest Period with respect thereto would end after the Maturity Date in effect for any Lender. The Administrative Agent shall promptly advise each of the Lenders of any notice given pursuant to this Section�2.04 and of each Lender�s portion of the requested Borrowing.

SECTION 2.05. Letters of Credit. (a)�General. The Borrowers may request the issuance of standby Letters of Credit, in a form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank, appropriately completed, for the accounts of the Borrowers, at any time and from time to time while the Commitments remain in effect. Each Existing Letter of Credit shall be deemed, for all purposes of this Agreement, to be a Letter of Credit issued hereunder for the account of the applicable Borrower. Each Letter of Credit shall be denominated in Dollars or an Alternative Currency, provided, however, that any Letter of Credit issued by Barclays Bank PLC shall be denominated in Dollars. This Section shall not be construed to impose an obligation upon any Issuing Bank to issue any Letter of Credit that is inconsistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

(b) Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions. In order to request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or to amend, renew or extend an existing Letter of Credit), the applicable Borrower shall hand deliver or fax to the applicable Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent (reasonably in advance of, but not later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, five Business Days before, the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension) a notice requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraph�(c)�below), the amount and currency of such Letter of Credit, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare such Letter of Credit. Following receipt of such notice and prior to the issuance of the requested Letter of Credit or the applicable amendment, renewal or extension, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrowers, each Lender and the applicable Issuing Bank of the amount of the Aggregate Credit Exposure after giving effect to (i)�the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of such Letter of Credit, (ii)�the issuance or expiration of any other Letter of Credit that is to be issued or will expire prior to the requested date of issuance of such Letter of Credit and (iii)�the borrowing or repayment of any Loans that (based upon notices delivered to the Administrative Agent by the Borrowers) are to be borrowed or repaid prior to the requested date of issuance of such Letter of Credit. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if, and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit the Borrowers shall be deemed to represent and warrant that, (i)�after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (A)�the L/C Exposure shall not exceed $100,000,000, (B)�the portion of the L/C Exposure attributable to Letters of Credit issued by the applicable Issuing Bank shall not exceed the L/C Commitment of such Issuing Bank, and (C)�the Aggregate Credit Exposure shall not exceed the Total Commitment, (ii)�in the case of a Letter of Credit that will expire later than the first anniversary of such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, the applicable Borrower, the applicable Issuing Bank and the Required Lenders shall have reached agreement on the fees to be applicable thereto as contemplated by the last sentence of Section�2.07(c) and (iii)�in the event the Maturity Date shall have been

34


extended as provided in Section�2.12(d), the sum of the L/C Exposures attributable to Letters of Credit expiring after any Existing Maturity Date (as defined in Section�2.12(d)) and the Competitive Loan Exposures attributable to Competitive Loans maturing after such Existing Maturity Date shall not exceed the aggregate Commitments that have been extended to a date after the expiration date of the last of such Letters of Credit and the maturity of the last of such Competitive Loans.

(c) Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at the close of business on the earlier of (x)�the date one year after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, one year after such renewal or extension) or such longer period as may be agreed to between the applicable Borrower and the Issuing Bank and (y)�the date that is five Business Days prior to the Maturity Date, unless such Letter of Credit expires by its terms on an earlier date; provided that any Letter of Credit with a one-year tenor may provide for renewal thereof under procedures reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Bank for additional one-year periods (which shall in no event extend beyond the date referred to in clause�(y) above).

(d) Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit and without any further action on the part of the applicable Issuing Bank or the Lenders, the applicable Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Lender, and each such Lender hereby acquires from the applicable Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender�s Applicable Share from time to time of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit, effective upon the issuance of such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, such Lender�s Applicable Share from time to time of each L/C Disbursement made by such Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the applicable Borrower (or, if applicable, another party pursuant to its obligations under any other Loan Document), on the date due as provided in paragraph (e)�of this Section, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason, in the currency of such L/C Disbursement. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, or any force majeure event under any rule of law or uniform practices to which any Letter of Credit is subject (including Section�3.14 of ISP 98 or any successor publication of the International Chamber of Commerce) permits a drawing to be made under such Letter of Credit after the expiration thereof or of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

(e) Reimbursement. If an Issuing Bank shall make any L/C Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the applicable Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such L/C Disbursement, in the currency of such L/C Disbursement, not later than (i)�if such Borrower shall have received notice of such L/C Disbursement prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on any Business Day, 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on such Business Day or (ii)�otherwise, 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the Business Day next following the day on which the Borrower shall have received notice from such Issuing Bank that payment of such draft will be made.

35


(f) Obligations Absolute. The Borrowers� obligations to reimburse L/C Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e)�above shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, under any and all circumstances whatsoever, and irrespective of:

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or any Loan Document, or any term or provision therein;

(ii) any amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any of the provisions of any Letter of Credit or any Loan Document;

(iii) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right that the Borrowers, any other party guaranteeing, or otherwise obligated with, the Borrowers, any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof or any other Person may at any time have against the beneficiary under any Letter of Credit, any Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other related or unrelated agreement or transaction;

(iv) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect;

(v) payment by the applicable Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit;

(vi) any force majeure or other event that under any rule of law or uniform practices to which any Letter of Credit is subject (including Section�3.14 of ISP 98 or any successor publication of the International Chamber of Commerce) permits a drawing to be made under such Letter of Credit after the stated expiration date thereof or of the Commitments; and

(vii) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind of any Issuing Bank, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent or any other Person or any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrowers� obligations hereunder.

None of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders or the Issuing Banks, or any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of

36


Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Bank. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is expressly understood and agreed that the absolute and unconditional obligation of the Borrowers hereunder to reimburse L/C Disbursements will not be excused by the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of any Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent or any Lender. However, the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse any Issuing Bank from liability to the Borrowers to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrowers to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrowers that are caused by such Issuing Bank�s gross negligence or wilful misconduct (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction) in determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof; it is understood that each Issuing Bank may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary and, in making any payment under any Letter of Credit (i)�an Issuing Bank�s exclusive reliance on the documents presented to it under such Letter of Credit as to any and all matters set forth therein, including reliance on the amount of any draft presented under such Letter of Credit, whether or not the amount due to the beneficiary thereunder equals the amount of such draft and whether or not any document presented pursuant to such Letter of Credit proves to be insufficient in any respect, if such document on its face appears to be in order, and whether or not any other statement or any other document presented pursuant to such Letter of Credit proves to be forged or invalid or any statement therein proves to be inaccurate or untrue in any respect whatsoever and (ii)�any noncompliance in any immaterial respect of the documents presented under such Letter of Credit with the terms thereof shall, in each case, be deemed not to constitute wilful misconduct or gross negligence of an Issuing Bank. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.

(g) Disbursement Procedures. The applicable Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. Such Issuing Bank shall as promptly as possible give telephonic notification, confirmed by fax, to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Borrower of such demand for payment and whether such Issuing Bank has made or will make an L/C Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve such Borrower of its obligation to reimburse the Issuing Bank and the Lenders with respect to any such L/C Disbursement. The Administrative Agent shall promptly give each Lender notice thereof.

(h) Interim Interest. If an Issuing Bank shall make any L/C Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, then, unless the applicable Borrower shall reimburse such L/C Disbursement in full on the date such L/C Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount

37


thereof shall bear interest for the account of such Issuing Bank, for each day from and including the date of such L/C Disbursement to but excluding the date of payment, at (i)�in the case of any L/C Disbursement denominated in Dollars, the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Revolving Loans, (ii)�in the case of any L/C Disbursement denominated in an Alternative Currency, a rate per annum determined by the applicable Issuing Bank (which determination will be conclusive absent manifest error) to represent its cost of funds plus the Applicable Rate used to determine interest applicable to LIBOR Revolving Loans; provided that, if such Borrower fails to reimburse such L/C Disbursement when due, then Section�2.10 shall apply.

(i) Resignation or Removal of an Issuing Bank. An Issuing Bank may resign at any time by giving 180 days� prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Company, and may be removed at any time by the Company by notice to the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders. Subject to the next succeeding paragraph, upon the acceptance of any appointment as an Issuing Bank hereunder by a successor Issuing Bank, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the interests, rights and obligations of the retiring Issuing Bank and the retiring Issuing Bank shall be discharged from its obligations to issue additional Letters of Credit hereunder. At the time such removal or resignation shall become effective, the Borrowers shall pay all accrued and unpaid fees pursuant to Section�2.07(c)(ii). The acceptance of any appointment as an Issuing Bank hereunder by a successor Lender shall be evidenced by an agreement entered into by such successor, in a form satisfactory to the Company and the Administrative Agent, and, from and after the effective date of such agreement, (i)�such successor Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of the previous Issuing Bank under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (ii)�references herein and in the other Loan Documents to the term �Issuing Bank� shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the resignation or removal of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the retiring Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such resignation or removal, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.

(j) Additional Issuing Banks. The Company may, at any time and from time to time with the consent of the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) and such Lender, designate one or more additional Lenders to act as an issuing bank under the terms of this Agreement. Any Lender designated as an issuing bank pursuant to this paragraph shall, upon entering into an Issuing Bank Agreement with the Company, be deemed to be an �Issuing Bank� (in addition to being a Lender) hereunder.

(k) Issuing Bank Reports. Unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank shall report in writing to the Administrative Agent (i)�on or prior to each Business Day on which such Issuing Bank issues, amends, renews or extends any Letter of Credit, the date of such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, and the aggregate face amounts and currencies of the Letters of Credit issued, amended, renewed or extended by it and outstanding after giving effect to such issuance,

38


amendment, renewal or extension (and whether the amount thereof shall have changed), it being understood that such Issuing Bank shall not effect any issuance, renewal, extension or amendment resulting in an increase in the aggregate amount of the Letters of Credit issued by it without first obtaining written confirmation from the Administrative Agent that such increase is then permitted under this Agreement, (ii)�on each Business Day on which such Issuing Bank makes any L/C Disbursement, the date, amount and currency of such L/C Disbursement, (iii)�on any Business Day on which a Borrower fails to reimburse an L/C Disbursement required to be reimbursed to such Issuing Bank on such day, the date of such failure and the amount and currency of such L/C Disbursement and (iv)�on any other Business Day, such other information as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request as to the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank.

SECTION 2.06. Conversion and Continuation of Revolving Loans. Each Borrower shall have the right at any time upon prior irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent (i)�not later than 2:00�p.m., Local Time, on the day of the conversion, to convert all or any part of any Eurocurrency Revolving Loan into an ABR Loan (provided that a Borrowing denominated in an Alternative Currency may not be converted into an ABR Borrowing), and (ii)�not later than 10:30�a.m., Local Time, three Business Days prior to conversion or continuation, to convert any ABR Loan into a Eurocurrency Revolving Loan or to continue any Eurocurrency Revolving Loan as a Eurocurrency Revolving Loan for an additional Interest Period, subject in each case to the following:

(a) if less than all the outstanding principal amount of any Revolving Borrowing shall be converted or continued, the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Borrowing converted or continued shall be an integral multiple of the Borrowing Multiple and not less than the Borrowing Minimum;

(b) accrued interest on a Revolving Borrowing (or portion thereof) being converted shall be paid by the Borrower at the time of conversion;

(c) if any Eurocurrency Revolving Loan is converted at a time other than the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrower shall pay, upon demand, any amounts due to the Lenders pursuant to Section�2.16;

(d) any portion of a Revolving Borrowing maturing or required to be repaid in less than one month may not be converted into or continued as a Eurocurrency Revolving Loan;

(e) any portion of a Eurocurrency Revolving Loan which cannot be continued as a Eurocurrency Revolving Loan by reason of clause�(d) above shall be automatically converted at the end of the Interest Period in effect for such Eurocurrency Revolving Loan into an ABR Borrowing;

(f) no Interest Period may be selected for any Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing that would end later than the Maturity Date in effect for any Lender;

(g) no Revolving Loan may be converted into a Revolving Loan denominated in a different currency; and

39


(h) at any time when there shall have occurred and be continuing any Default or Event of Default, if the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders shall so notify the Company, no Revolving Loan may be converted into or continued as a Eurocurrency Revolving Loan.

Each notice pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable and shall refer to this Agreement and specify (i)�the identity and amount of the Revolving Borrowing to be converted or continued, (ii)�whether such Revolving Borrowing is to be converted to or continued as a Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing or an ABR Borrowing, (iii)�if such notice requests a conversion, the date of such conversion (which shall be a Business Day) and (iv)�if such Revolving Borrowing is to be converted to or continued as a Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing, the Interest Period with respect thereto. If no Interest Period is specified in any such notice with respect to any conversion to or continuation as a Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing, the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month�s duration. If no notice shall have been given in accordance with this Section�2.06 to convert or continue any Revolving Borrowing, such Revolving Borrowing shall, at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto (unless repaid pursuant to the terms hereof), (a)�in the case of a Borrowing denominated in Dollars, automatically be continued into a new Interest Period as an ABR Borrowing, and (b)�in the case of a Borrowing denominated in an Alternative Currency, become due and payable on the last day of such Interest Period.

SECTION 2.07. Fees. (a)�The Company agrees to pay to each Lender, through the Administrative Agent, on each March�31, June�30, September�30 and December�31 (with the first payment being due on December�31,�2014) and on each date on which the Commitment of such Lender shall be terminated as provided herein (and any subsequent date on which such Lender shall cease to have any Revolving Credit Exposure or L/C Exposure), a facility fee (a �Facility Fee�), at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Percentage from time to time in effect, on the amount of the Commitment of such Lender, whether used or unused, during the preceding quarter (or other period commencing on the Closing Date, or ending with the Maturity Date or any date on which the Commitment of such Lender shall be terminated) or, if such Lender continues to have any Revolving Credit Exposure or L/C Exposure after its Commitment terminates, on the daily amount of such Lender�s Revolving Credit Exposure and L/C Exposure. All Facility Fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be. The Facility Fee due to each Lender shall commence to accrue on the Closing Date and shall cease to accrue on the earlier of the Maturity Date and the termination of the Commitment of such Lender as provided herein.

(b) The Company agrees to pay the Administrative Agent, for its own account, the administrative and other fees separately agreed to by the Company and the Administrative Agent (the �Administrative Fees�).

(c) The Company agrees to pay (i)�to each Lender, through the Administrative Agent, on each March�31, June�30, September�30 and December�31 and on the date on which the Commitment of such Lender shall be terminated as provided herein, a fee (an �L/C Participation Fee�) calculated on such Lender�s average daily L/C Exposure (excluding the portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed L/C Disbursements) during the preceding quarter (or shorter period commencing with the Effective Date or

40


ending with the later of (A)�the Maturity Date or the date on which the Commitment of such Lender shall be terminated and (B)�the date on which such Lender shall cease to have any L/C Exposure) at a rate equal to the Applicable Percentage from time to time, and (ii)�to each Issuing Bank with respect to each Letter of Credit issued by it the fees agreed upon by the Company and such Issuing Bank plus, in connection with the issuance, amendment or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any L/C Disbursement, such Issuing Bank�s customary documentary and processing charges (collectively, the �Issuing Bank Fees�). All L/C Participation Fees and Issuing Bank Fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of any Letter of Credit that will expire later than the first anniversary of the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension thereof, the L/C Participation Fee and Issuing Bank Fees shall be increased by an amount to be agreed upon prior to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension by the applicable Borrower, the applicable Issuing Bank and the Required Lenders.

(d) All Fees shall be paid in Dollars on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent for distribution, if and as appropriate, among the Lenders, except that the Issuing Bank Fees shall be paid directly to the applicable Issuing Banks and the Administrative Fees shall be paid pursuant to paragraph�(b) above. Once paid, none of the Fees shall be refundable under any circumstances in the absence of demonstrable error.

SECTION 2.08. Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. (a)�Each Borrower hereby agrees that the outstanding principal balance of each Revolving Loan shall be payable on the Maturity Date and that the outstanding principal balance of each Competitive Loan shall be payable on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto. Each Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal balance thereof as set forth in Section�2.09.

(b) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time under this Agreement.

(c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it will record (i)�the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the currency of each Loan, the Borrower of each Loan, the Type of each Loan made and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii)�the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from each Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii)�the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from each Borrower and each Lender�s share thereof.

(d) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraphs�(b) and�(c) of this Section shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligations of the Borrowers to repay the Loans in accordance with their terms.

41


(e) Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by promissory notes. In such event, the Borrowers shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender promissory notes payable to such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and in a form approved by the Administrative Agent. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory notes and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section�10.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns).

SECTION 2.09. Interest on Loans. (a)�Subject to the provisions of Section�2.10, the Loans comprising each LIBOR Borrowing shall bear interest (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360�days or, in the case of a Borrowing denominated in Sterling, 365 days) at a rate per annum equal to (i)�in the case of each LIBOR Revolving Loan denominated in Dollars, the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Percentage set forth under the caption �LIBO/EURIBO Rate Spread� from time to time in effect, (ii)�in the case of each LIBOR Revolving Loan denominated in Sterling, the LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Percentage set forth under the caption �LIBO/EURIBO Rate Spread�, and (iii)�in the case of each LIBOR Competitive Loan, the LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Margin offered by the Lender making such Loan and accepted by the applicable Borrower pursuant to Section�2.03.

(b) Subject to the provisions of Section�2.10, the Loans comprising each EURIBOR Borrowing shall bear interest (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360�days) at a rate per annum equal to (i)�in the case of each EURIBOR Revolving Loan, the EURIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Percentage set forth under the caption �LIBO/EURIBO Rate Spread� and (ii)�in the case of each EURIBOR Competitive Loan, the EURIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Margin offered by the Lender making such Loan and accepted by the applicable Borrower pursuant to Section�2.03.

(c) Subject to the provisions of Section�2.10, the Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing shall bear interest (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 365 or 366�days, as the case may be, for periods during which the Alternate Base Rate is determined by reference to the Prime Rate and 360�days for other periods) at a rate per annum equal to the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Percentage.

(d) Subject to the provisions of Section�2.10, each Fixed Rate Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360�days) equal to the fixed rate of interest offered by the Lender making such Loan and accepted by the applicable Borrower pursuant to Section�2.03.

(e) Interest on each Loan shall be payable on each Interest Payment Date applicable to such Loan except as otherwise provided in this Agreement. The applicable Adjusted LIBO Rate, LIBO Rate, EURIBO Rate or Alternate Base Rate for each Interest Period or day within an Interest Period, as the case may be, shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

42


SECTION 2.10. Default Interest. If a Borrower shall default in the payment of the principal of or interest on any Loan or any other amount becoming due hereunder, whether at scheduled maturity, by notice of prepayment, by acceleration or otherwise, such Borrower shall on demand from time to time from the Administrative Agent pay interest, to the extent permitted by law, on such defaulted amount up to (but not including) the date of actual payment (after as well as before judgment) at a rate per annum (computed as provided in Section�2.09(c)) equal to (i)�in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2.00%�per annum plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in Section�2.09 or (ii)�in the case of any other amount, 2.00%�per annum plus the rate applicable to ABR Loans as provided in paragraph (c)�of Section�2.09.

SECTION 2.11. Alternate Rate of Interest. In the event, and on each occasion, that on the day two Business Days prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurocurrency Borrowing in any currency, the Administrative Agent shall have determined (i)�that deposits in the currency and principal amounts of the Eurocurrency Loans comprising such Borrowing are not generally available in the London market or (ii)�that reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate, the LIBO Rate or the EURIBO Rate, the Administrative Agent shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, give fax notice of such determination to the Borrowers and the Lenders. In the event of any such determination under clause�(i) or�(ii) above, until the Administrative Agent shall have advised the Company and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (x)�any request by a Borrower for a Eurocurrency Competitive Borrowing pursuant to Section�2.03 shall be of no force and effect and shall be denied by the Administrative Agent, and (y)�any request by a Borrower for a Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing pursuant to Section�2.04 shall (A)�in the case of a request for a Borrowing denominated in Dollars, be deemed to be a request for an ABR Borrowing, and (B)�in the case of a request for a Borrowing denominated in an Alternative Currency, be calculated into the Dollar Equivalent and be deemed to be a request for an ABR Borrowing. In the event the Required Lenders notify the Administrative Agent that the rates at which Dollar deposits are being offered will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining Eurocurrency Loans in Dollars during such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall notify the applicable Borrower of such notice and until the Required Lenders shall have advised the Administrative Agent that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, any request by such Borrower for a Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing shall (A)�in the case of a request for a Borrowing denominated in Dollars, be deemed to be a request for an ABR Borrowing, and (B)�in the case of a request for a Borrowing denominated in an Alternative Currency, be calculated into the Dollar Equivalent and be deemed to be a request for an ABR Borrowing. Each determination by the Administrative Agent hereunder shall be made in good faith and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

SECTION 2.12. Termination, Reduction, Extension and Increase of Commitments. (a)�The Commitments shall automatically terminate on the Maturity Date.

43


(b) Upon at least three Business Days� prior irrevocable fax notice to the Administrative Agent, the Company may at any time in whole permanently terminate, or from time to time in part permanently reduce, the Total Commitment; provided, however, that (i)�each partial reduction of the Total Commitment shall be in an integral multiple of $10,000,000 and (ii)�no such termination or reduction shall be made (A)�which would reduce the Total Commitment to an amount less than the Aggregate Credit Exposure or (B)�which would reduce any Lender�s Commitment to an amount that is less than the sum of such Lender�s Revolving Credit Exposure and L/C Exposure.

(c) Each reduction in the Total Commitment hereunder shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments. The Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, on the date of each reduction or termination of the Total Commitment, the Facility Fees on the amount of the Commitments terminated accrued through the date of such termination or reduction.

(d) The Company may on not more than two occasions during the term of this Agreement, by written notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly deliver a copy to each of the Lenders) not less than 30 days and not more than 90 days prior to any anniversary of the date hereof, request that the Lenders extend the Maturity Date and the Commitments for an additional period of one year. Each Lender shall, by notice to the Company and the Administrative Agent given not later than the 20th day after the date of the Administrative Agent�s receipt of the Company�s extension request, advise the Company whether or not it agrees to the requested extension (each Lender agreeing to a requested extension being called a �Consenting Lender� and each Lender declining to agree to a requested extension being called a �Declining Lender�). Any Lender that has not so advised the Company and the Administrative Agent by such day shall be deemed to have declined to agree to such extension and shall be a Declining Lender. If Lenders constituting the Required Lenders shall have agreed to an extension request, then the Maturity Date shall, as to the Consenting Lenders, be extended to the first anniversary of the Maturity Date theretofore in effect. The decision to agree or withhold agreement to any Maturity Date extension shall be at the sole discretion of each Lender. The Commitment of any Declining Lender shall terminate on the Maturity Date in effect prior to giving effect to any such extension (such Maturity Date being called the �Existing Maturity Date�). The principal amount of any outstanding Loans made by Declining Lenders, together with any accrued interest thereon and any accrued fees and other amounts payable to or for the accounts of such Declining Lenders hereunder, shall be due and payable on the Existing Maturity Date, and on the Existing Maturity Date, the Borrowers shall also make such other prepayments of their Loans as shall be required in order that, after giving effect to the termination of the Commitments of, and all payments to, Declining Lenders pursuant to this sentence, the Aggregate Credit Exposures shall not exceed the Total Commitment. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this paragraph, the Company shall have the right, pursuant to Section�10.04, at any time prior to the Existing Maturity Date, to replace a Declining Lender with a Lender or other financial institution that will agree to a request for the extension of the Maturity Date, and any such replacement Lender shall for all purposes constitute a Consenting Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no extension of the Maturity Date pursuant to this paragraph shall become effective unless (i)�the Administrative Agent shall have received

44


documents consistent with those delivered with respect to the Company and the Borrowers under Section�4.02(a) and (b)�and Section�4.03(a), giving effect to such extension and (ii)�on the anniversary of the date hereof that immediately follows the date on which the Company delivers the applicable request for extension of the Maturity Date, the conditions set forth in paragraphs (b)�and (c)�of Section�4.01 shall be satisfied (with all references in such paragraphs to a Borrowing being deemed to be references to such extension and without giving effect to the parenthetical in Section�4.01(b)) and the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate to that effect dated such date and executed by a Financial Officer of the Company.

(e) The Company may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, executed by the Company and one or more financial institutions (any such financial institution referred to in this Section being called an �Increasing Lender�), which may include any Lender, cause Commitments to be extended by the Increasing Lenders (or cause the Commitments of the Increasing Lenders to be increased, as the case may be) in an amount for each Increasing Lender set forth in such notice, provided, however, that (a)�the aggregate amount of all new Commitments and increases in existing Commitments pursuant to this paragraph during the term of this Agreement shall in no event exceed $200,000,000, (b)�each Increasing Lender, if not already a Lender hereunder, (x)�shall have a Commitment, immediately after the effectiveness of such increase, of at least $25,000,000, (y)�shall be subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Bank (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) and (z)�shall become a party to this Agreement by completing and delivering to the Administrative Agent a duly executed accession agreement in a form satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Company (an �Accession Agreement�) and (c)�the decision of any existing Lender to become an Increasing Lender shall be in the sole discretion of such Lender, and no existing Lender shall be required to increase its Commitment hereunder. New Commitments and increases in Commitments pursuant to this Section shall become effective on the date specified in the applicable notices delivered pursuant to this Section. Upon the effectiveness of any Accession Agreement to which any Increasing Lender is a party, (i)�such Increasing Lender shall thereafter be deemed to be a party to this Agreement and shall be entitled to all rights, benefits and privileges accorded a Lender hereunder and subject to all obligations of a Lender hereunder and (ii)�Schedule 2.01 shall be deemed to have been amended to reflect the Commitment of such Increasing Lender as provided in such Accession Agreement. Upon the effectiveness of any increase pursuant to this Section in the Commitment of a Lender already a party hereto, Schedule�2.01 shall be deemed to have been amended to reflect the increased Commitment of such Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no increase in the aggregate Commitments (or in the Commitment of any Lender) shall become effective under this Section unless, on the date of such increase, (i)�the Administrative Agent shall have received documents consistent with those delivered with respect to the Company and the Borrowers under Section�4.02(a) and (b)�and Section�4.03(a), giving effect to such increase and (ii)�the conditions set forth in paragraphs (b)�and (c)�of Section�4.01 shall be satisfied (with all references in such paragraphs to a Borrowing being deemed to be references to such increase and without giving effect to the parenthetical in Section�4.01(b)) and the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate to that effect dated such date and executed by a Financial Officer of the Company. Following any extension of a new Commitment or increase of a Lender�s Commitment pursuant to this paragraph,

45


any Revolving Loans outstanding prior to the effectiveness of such increase or extension shall continue outstanding until the ends of the respective Interests Periods applicable thereto, and shall then be repaid or refinanced with new Revolving Loans made pursuant to Section�2.01.

SECTION 2.13. Prepayment. (a)�Each Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Revolving Borrowing, in whole or in part, upon giving fax notice (or telephone notice promptly confirmed by fax) to the Administrative Agent: (i)�before 10:00�a.m., New�York City time, three Business Days prior to prepayment, in the case of Eurocurrency Revolving Loans, and (ii)�before 10:00�a.m., New�York City time, one Business Day prior to prepayment, in the case of ABR Loans; provided, however, that in the case of any Revolving Borrowing, each partial prepayment shall be in an amount which is an integral multiple of $5,000,000 and not less than $10,000,000.

(b) If the Aggregate Credit Exposure shall at any time exceed the Total Commitment, then (i)�on the last day of any Interest Period applicable to any Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing and (ii)�on any other date in the event any ABR Revolving Borrowing shall be outstanding, the Borrowers shall prepay Revolving Loans in an amount equal to the lesser of (A)�the amount necessary to eliminate such excess (after giving effect to any other prepayment of Loans on such day) and (B)�the amount of the applicable Borrowings referred to in clause (i)�or (ii), as applicable. If, on any date, the Aggregate Credit Exposure shall exceed 105% of the Total Commitment, then the Borrowers shall, not later than the third Business Day following the date notice of such excess is received from the Administrative Agent, prepay one or more Revolving Borrowings in an aggregate principal amount sufficient to eliminate such excess.

(c) On the date of any termination or reduction of the Commitments pursuant to Section�2.12, the Borrowers shall pay or prepay so much of the Revolving Borrowings as shall be necessary in order that the Aggregate Credit Exposure will not exceed the Total Commitment after giving effect to such termination or reduction.

(d) Each notice of prepayment shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing (or portion thereof) to be prepaid, shall be irrevocable and shall commit the applicable Borrower to prepay such Borrowing (or portion thereof) by the amount stated therein on the date stated therein. All prepayments under this Section�shall be subject to Section�2.16 but otherwise without premium or penalty. All prepayments under this Section�shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the principal amount being prepaid to the date of payment.

SECTION 2.14. Reserve Requirements; Change in Circumstances. (a)�Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if after the date of this Agreement any Change in Law shall result in the imposition, modification or applicability of any reserve, insurance charge, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of or credit extended or participated in by any Credit Party, or shall result in the imposition on any Credit Party or the London interbank market of any other condition affecting this Agreement, such Credit Party�s Commitment or any Loan made by such Credit Party or Letter of Credit or participation therein (including any Tax (other than (i)�Indemnified Taxes, (ii)�Taxes described in clauses (b)�through (c)�of the

46


definition of Excluded Taxes and (iii)�Connection Income Taxes) on or with respect to the Commitments, Loans, deposits or liabilities incurred to fund Loans, assets consisting of Loans (but not unrelated assets) or capital attributable to the foregoing), and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Credit Party of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Loan or of issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit) or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Credit Party hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise) by an amount deemed by such Credit Party to be material, then such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Credit Party for such additional costs or reduction will be paid by the Borrowers to such Credit Party upon demand. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Credit Party shall be entitled to request compensation under this paragraph, (A)�with respect to any Competitive Loan made by such Credit Party if the Change in Law giving rise to such request was applicable to such Credit Party at the time of submission of the Competitive Bid pursuant to which such Competitive Loan was made or issued, or (B)�with respect to any Change in Law in respect of costs imposed on such Lender or Issuing Bank under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act or Basel III if it shall not be the general policy or practice of such Credit Party to seek compensation in similar circumstances under similar provisions in comparable credit facilities, as determined in good faith by such Credit Party.

(b) If any Credit Party shall have determined that any Change in Law affecting such Credit Party or any lending office of such Credit Party or such Credit Party�s holding company, if any, regarding capital adequacy or liquidity has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Credit Party�s capital or on the capital of such Credit Party�s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, such Credit Party�s Commitment or the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued by such Credit Party pursuant hereto to a level below that which such Credit Party or such Credit Party�s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Credit Party�s policies and the policies of such Credit Party�s holding company with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity) by an amount deemed by such Credit Party to be material, then from time to time such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Credit Party for such reduction will be paid by the Borrowers to such Credit Party.

(c) A certificate of any Credit Party setting forth such amount or amounts as shall be necessary to compensate such Credit Party or its holding company as specified in paragraph�(a) or (b)�above, as the case may be, shall be delivered to the Company and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay such Credit Party the amount shown as due on any such certificate delivered by it within 10 days after its receipt of the same.

(d) Failure on the part of any Credit Party to demand compensation for any increased costs or reduction in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital with respect to any period shall not constitute a waiver of such Credit Party�s right to demand compensation with respect to such period or any other period; provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate any Credit Party pursuant to this Section�for any increased costs or expenses incurred or reductions suffered more than 90

47


days prior to the date that such Credit Party notifies the Company of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or expenses or reductions and of such Credit Party�s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or expenses or reductions is retroactive, then the 90-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. The protection of this Section shall be available to each Credit Party regardless of any possible contention of the invalidity or inapplicability of the Change in Law which shall have occurred or been imposed.

SECTION 2.15. Change in Legality. (a)�Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if any change in any law or regulation or in the interpretation thereof by any Governmental Authority charged with the administration or interpretation thereof shall make it unlawful for any Lender or any of its Affiliates to make or maintain any Eurocurrency Loan or to give effect to its obligations as contemplated hereby with respect to any Eurocurrency Loan, then, by written notice to the Company and to the Administrative Agent, such Lender may:

(i) declare that Eurocurrency Loans will not thereafter be made by such Lender hereunder, whereupon such Lender shall not submit a Competitive Bid in response to a request for a Eurocurrency Competitive Borrowing, and any request for a Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing shall, as to such Lender only, be deemed a request for an ABR Loan, unless such declaration shall be subsequently withdrawn; and

(ii) require that all outstanding Eurocurrency Loans denominated in Dollars made by it be converted to ABR Loans (which ABR Loans shall, for purposes of this Section�2.15, be determined at a rate per annum by reference to the greater of clause (a)�or (b)�of the definition of the term �Alternate Base Rate�) and that all outstanding Eurocurrency Loans denominated in the affected Alternative Currency or affected Non-US Currency be promptly prepaid, in which event all such Eurocurrency Loans in Dollars shall be automatically converted to ABR Loans (at a rate per annum as so determined) as of the effective date of such notice as provided in paragraph�(b) below and all such Alternative Currency Loans and Non-US Currency Loans shall be promptly prepaid.

In the event any Lender shall exercise its rights under (i)�or (ii)�above with respect to Eurocurrency Loans, all payments and prepayments of principal which would otherwise have been applied to repay the Eurocurrency Loans that would have been made by such Lender or the converted Eurocurrency Loans of such Lender shall instead be applied to repay the ABR Loans made by such Lender in lieu of, or resulting from the conversion of, such Eurocurrency Loans.

(b) For purposes of this Section�2.15, a notice by any Lender shall be effective as to each Eurocurrency Loan, if lawful, on the last day of the Interest Period currently applicable to such Eurocurrency Loan; in all other cases such notice shall be effective on the date of receipt.

48


SECTION 2.16. Indemnity. The Borrowers shall indemnify each Lender against any out-of-pocket loss or reasonable expense which such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a)�any failure to borrow or to refinance, convert or continue any Loan hereunder after irrevocable notice of such borrowing, refinancing, conversion or continuation has been given pursuant to Section�2.03, 2.04 or�2.06, (b)�any payment, prepayment or conversion, or assignment required under Section�2.21, of a Eurocurrency Loan required by any other provision of this Agreement or otherwise made or deemed made on a date other than the last day of the Interest Period, if any, applicable thereto, (c)�any default in payment or prepayment of the principal amount of any Loan or any part thereof or interest accrued thereon, as and when due and payable (at the due date thereof, whether by scheduled maturity, acceleration, irrevocable notice of prepayment or otherwise) or (d)�the occurrence of any Event of Default, including, in each such case, any loss or reasonable expense sustained or incurred or to be sustained or incurred in liquidating or employing deposits from third parties acquired to effect or maintain such Loan or any part thereof as a Eurocurrency Loan. Such loss or reasonable expense shall include an amount equal to the excess, if any, as reasonably determined by such Lender, of (i)�its cost of obtaining the funds for the Loan being paid, prepaid, refinanced or not borrowed (assumed to be the Adjusted LIBO Rate, LIBO Rate or EURIBO Rate applicable thereto) for the period from the date of such payment, prepayment, refinancing or failure to borrow or refinance to the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan (or, in the case of a failure to borrow or refinance the Interest Period for such Loan which would have commenced on the date of such failure) over (ii)�the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Lender) that would be realized by such Lender in reemploying the funds so paid, prepaid or not borrowed or refinanced for such period or Interest Period, as the case may be. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts which such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section as a result of any loss shall be delivered to such Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error; provided that any expenses related to any such loss that are incurred by such Lender and reported under such certificate shall be required to be reasonably documented.

SECTION 2.17. Pro Rata Treatment. Except as required under Sections�2.15 and�2.21, each payment of the Facility Fees and each reduction of the Commitments shall be allocated pro�rata among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments (or, if such Commitments shall have expired or been terminated, in accordance with the respective principal amounts of their outstanding Revolving Loans). Except as required under Sections�2.15 and 2.12(d), each payment or repayment of principal of any Revolving Borrowing and each refinancing or conversion of any Revolving Borrowing shall be allocated pro rata among the Lenders in accordance with the respective principal amounts of their outstanding Revolving Loans comprising such Borrowing, and each payment of interest on any Revolving Borrowing shall be allocated pro rata among the Lenders in accordance with the respective amounts of accrued and unpaid interest on their outstanding Revolving Loans comprising such Borrowing. Each payment of principal of any Competitive Borrowing shall be allocated pro rata among the Lenders participating in such Borrowing in accordance with the respective principal amounts of their outstanding Competitive Loans comprising such Borrowing. Each payment of interest on any Competitive Borrowing shall be allocated pro�rata among the Lenders participating in such Borrowing in accordance with the respective amounts of accrued and unpaid interest on their outstanding Competitive Loans comprising such Borrowing. For purposes of determining the Commitments of the

49


Lenders at any time, each outstanding Competitive Borrowing shall be deemed to have utilized the Commitments of the Lenders (including those Lenders which shall not have made Loans as part of such Competitive Borrowing) pro�rata in accordance with their respective Commitments. Each Lender agrees that in computing such Lender�s portion of any Borrowing to be made hereunder, the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, round each Lender�s percentage of such Borrowing to the next higher or lower whole Dollar amount.

SECTION 2.18. Sharing of Setoffs. Each Lender agrees that if it shall, through the exercise of a right of banker�s lien, setoff or counterclaim, or pursuant to a secured claim under Section�506 of Title�11 of the United States Code or other security or interest arising from, or in lieu of, such secured claim, received by such Lender under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law or otherwise, or by any other means (other than pursuant to Sections 2.14, 2.16 or 2.20), obtain payment (voluntary or involuntary) in respect of any Revolving Loans or amounts owed to it in respect of L/C Disbursements as a result of which the unpaid principal portion of its Revolving Loans and the amounts owed to it in respect of L/C Disbursements shall be proportionately less than the unpaid principal portion of the Revolving Loans and amounts owed in respect of L/C Disbursements of any other Lender, it shall be deemed simultaneously to have purchased from such other Lender at face value, and shall promptly pay to such other Lender the purchase price for, a participation in the Revolving Loans and amounts owed in respect of L/C Disbursements of such other Lender, so that the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Revolving Loans and participations in the Revolving Loans and amounts owed in respect of L/C Disbursements of each Lender shall be in the same proportion to the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Revolving Loans and amounts owed in respect of L/C Disbursements then outstanding as the principal amount of its Revolving Loans and the amounts owed to it in respect of L/C Disbursements prior to such exercise of banker�s lien, setoff or counterclaim or other event was to the principal amount of all Revolving Loans and amounts owed in respect of L/C Disbursements outstanding prior to such exercise of banker�s lien, setoff or counterclaim or other event; provided, however, that, if any such purchase or purchases or adjustments shall be made pursuant to this Section�2.18 and the payment giving rise thereto shall thereafter be recovered, such purchase or purchases or adjustments shall be rescinded to the extent of such recovery and the purchase price or prices or adjustment restored without interest. Any Lender holding a participation in a Revolving Loan or amount owed in respect of an L/C Disbursement deemed to have been so purchased may exercise any and all rights of banker�s lien, setoff or counterclaim with respect to any and all moneys owing to such Lender by reason thereof as fully as if such Lender had made a Revolving Loan in the amount of such participation.

SECTION 2.19. Payments. (a)�Except to the extent that any Tax is required to be withheld or deducted under applicable law or regulation, but subject to the provisions of Section�2.20, the Borrowers shall make each payment (including principal of or interest on any Borrowing or any L/C Disbursement and any Fees or other amounts) hereunder without deduction, counter-claim or setoff in immediately available funds not later than 12:00 noon, Local Time, on the date when due in immediately available funds. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent to the applicable account specified by it for the account of the Lenders or, in any such case, to such other account

50


as the Administrative Agent shall from time to time specify in a notice delivered to the Company. Each such payment (other than principal of and interest on Alternative Currency Loans, Non-US Currency Loans and Alternative Currency L/C Disbursements, which shall be made in the applicable currencies) shall be made in Dollars. The Administrative Agent shall promptly, in accordance with customary banking procedures, distribute all payments for the accounts of the Lenders received by it to the Lenders.

(b) Whenever any payment (including principal of or interest on any Borrowing or any Fees or other amounts) hereunder shall become due, or otherwise would occur, on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of interest or Fees, if applicable.

(c) Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it hereunder to or for the account of the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, until such time as all such unsatisfied obligations of such Lender have been fully paid, (i)�apply any amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender for the benefit of the Administrative Agent or the applicable Issuing Bank to satisfy such Lender�s obligations to it under each such Section and/or (ii)�hold any such amounts in a segregated account as cash collateral for, and for application to, any future obligations of such Lender under any such Section, in each case in any order as determined by the Administrative Agent in its discretion.

SECTION 2.20. Taxes. (a)�Each payment by each applicable Borrower under this Agreement shall be made without withholding for any Taxes, unless such withholding is required by any law. If any Withholding Agent determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it is so required to withhold Taxes, then such Withholding Agent may so withhold and shall timely pay the full amount of withheld Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. If such Taxes are Indemnified Taxes, then the amount payable by the applicable Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that, net of such withholding (including such withholding applicable to additional amounts payable under this Section), the applicable Credit Party receives the amount it would have received had no such withholding been made.

(b) Each applicable Borrower shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(c) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes by any Borrower to a Governmental Authority, such Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(d) Each Borrower shall indemnify each Credit Party for any Indemnified Taxes that are paid or payable by such Credit Party in connection with this Agreement (including amounts paid or payable under this Section�2.20(d)) and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental

51


Authority, except to the extent that such Borrower has paid additional amounts with respect to such Taxes pursuant to Section�2.20(a) of this Agreement. The indemnity under this Section�2.20(d) shall be paid within 10 days after the Credit Party delivers to the applicable Borrower a certificate stating the amount of any Indemnified Taxes so paid or payable by such Credit Party. Such certificate shall be conclusive of the amount so paid or payable absent manifest error. Such Credit Party shall deliver a copy of such certificate to the Administrative Agent.

(e) Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent for any Taxes (but, in the case of any Indemnified Taxes, only to the extent that the Borrowers have not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of any Borrower to do so) attributable to such Lender that are paid or payable by the Administrative Agent in connection with this Agreement and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. The indemnity under this Section�2.20(e) shall be paid within 10 days after the Administrative Agent delivers to the applicable Lender a certificate stating the amount of Taxes or expenses so paid or payable by the Administrative Agent. Such certificate shall be conclusive of the amount so paid or payable absent manifest error.

(f) (i)�Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from, or reduction of, any applicable withholding Tax with respect to any payments under this Agreement or the Loan Documents shall deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, on or prior to the date such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement and at the time or times reasonably requested by any Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by such Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without, or at a reduced rate of, withholding. In addition, any Lender shall, on or prior to the date such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement and at the time or times reasonably requested by any Borrower or the Administrative Agent, deliver such other documentation prescribed by law or reasonably requested by such Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable such Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Upon the reasonable request of any Borrower or the Administrative Agent, any Lender shall update any form or certification previously delivered pursuant to this Section�2.20(f). If any form or certification previously delivered pursuant to this Section expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect with respect to a Lender, such Lender shall promptly (and in any event within 10 days after such expiration, obsolescence or inaccuracy) notify such Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of such expiration, obsolescence or inaccuracy and update the form or certification if it is legally eligible to do so. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section�2.20(f)(i), the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section�2.20(f)(ii)(A), (ii)(B), (ii)(C), (ii)(D), (ii)(E) and Section�2.20(f)(iii) below) shall not be required if in the Lender�s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

52


(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if any Borrower is a US Person, any Lender with respect to such Borrower shall, if it is legally eligible to do so, deliver to such Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies reasonably requested by such Borrower and the Administrative Agent) on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a party hereto, duly completed and executed copies of whichever of the following is applicable (including any applicable substitute or successor forms):

(B) in the case of a Non-US Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (1)�with respect to payments of interest under this Agreement, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, US Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the �interest� article of such tax treaty and (2)�with respect to any other applicable payments under this Agreement or the Loan Documents, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, US Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the �business profits� or �other income� article of such tax treaty;

(C) in the case of a Non-US Lender for whom payments under this Agreement constitute income that is effectively connected with such Lender�s conduct of a trade or business in the United States, IRS Form W-8ECI;

(D) in the case of a Non-US Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section�881(c) of the Code both (1)�IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, and (2)�a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit G (a �US Tax Certificate�) to the effect that such Lender is not (a)�a �bank� within the meaning of Section�881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (b)�a �10 percent shareholder� of such Borrower within the meaning of Section�881(c)(3)(B) of the Code (c)�a �controlled foreign corporation� described in Section�881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (d)�conducting a trade or business in the United States with which the relevant interest payments are effectively connected;

(E) in the case of a Non-US Lender that is not the beneficial owner of payments made under this Agreement (including a partnership or a participating Lender) (1)�an IRS Form W-8IMY on behalf of itself and (2)�the relevant forms prescribed in clauses (A), (B), (C), (D)�and (F)�of this paragraph (f)(ii) that would be required of each such beneficial owner or partner of such partnership if such beneficial owner or partner were a Lender; provided, however, that if such non-US Lender is a partnership and one or more of its partners are claiming the exemption for portfolio interest under Section�881(c) of the Code, such Lender may provide a US Tax Certificate on behalf of such partners; or

53


(F) any other form prescribed by law as a basis for claiming exemption from, or a reduction of, US Federal withholding Tax together with such supplementary documentation necessary to enable such Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the amount of Tax (if any) required by law to be withheld.

(iii) Each Lender shall deliver to the Withholding Agent, at the time or times prescribed by law (including as prescribed as a result of any change in law or the taking effect of any law occurring after the date hereof) and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Withholding Agent, such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section�1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code and as prescribed by any change in law or the taking effect of any law occurring after the date hereof) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Withholding Agent as may be necessary for the Withholding Agent (A)�to comply with its obligations under FATCA and (B)�to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender�s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. For purposes of this Section�2.20(f)(iii), FATCA shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(g) If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section�2.20 (including additional amounts paid pursuant to this Section�2.20), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made and additional amounts paid under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including any Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid to such indemnified party pursuant to the previous sentence (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This Section�2.20(g) shall not be construed to require any party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to any other party or any other Person.

(h) Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Borrower for any Taxes incurred or asserted against the Administrative Agent or such Borrower by any Governmental Authority and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom as a result of the failure by such Lender to deliver, or as a result of the inaccuracy, inadequacy or deficiency of, any documentation required to be delivered by such Lender to the Administrative Agent or such Borrower pursuant to Section�2.20(f). The indemnity under this Section�2.20(h) shall be paid within 10 days after the Administrative Agent or such Borrower delivers to the applicable Lender a certificate stating the amount of Taxes or expenses so paid or payable by the Administrative Agent or such Borrower. Such certificate shall be conclusive of the amount so paid or payable absent manifest error.

54


(i) Each party�s obligations under this Section�2.20 shall survive any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other obligations under this Agreement.

(j) For purposes of Sections 2.20(e), (f), (h)�and (i), the term �Lender� includes any (i)�Issuing Bank and (ii)�assignee and Participant under Section�10.04.

SECTION 2.21. Duty to Mitigate; Assignment of Commitments Under Certain Circumstances. (a)�Any Lender (including any assignee and any Lender for the benefit of a Participant) or Issuing Bank claiming any additional amounts payable pursuant to Section�2.14 or Section�2.20 or exercising its rights under Section�2.15 shall use reasonable efforts (consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions) to file any certificate or document requested by the Company or to change the jurisdiction of its applicable lending office if the making of such a filing or change would avoid the need for or reduce the amount of any such additional amounts which may thereafter accrue or avoid the circumstances giving rise to such exercise and would not, in the sole determination of such Lender (including any assignee and any Lender for the benefit of a Participant) or Issuing Bank, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender (including any assignee and any Lender for the benefit of a Participant) or Issuing Bank.

(b) In the event that any Lender (including any assignee and any Lender for the benefit of a Participant) or Issuing Bank shall have delivered a notice or certificate pursuant to Section�2.14 or 2.15, or any Borrower shall be required to make additional payments to any Lender (including any assignee and any Lender for the benefit of a Participant) or Issuing Bank under Section�2.20, the Company shall have the right, at its own expense, upon notice to such Lender (including any assignee and any Lender for the benefit of a Participant) or Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent, to require such Lender (including any assignee and any Lender for the benefit of a Participant) or Issuing Bank to transfer and assign without recourse, representation or warranty (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section�10.04) all interests, rights and obligations contained hereunder to another financial institution approved by the Administrative Agent (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) which shall assume such obligations; provided that (i)�no such assignment shall conflict with any law, rule or regulation or order of any Governmental Authority and (ii)�the assignee or the Company, as the case may be, shall pay to the affected Lender (including any assignee and any Lender for the benefit of a Participant) or Issuing Bank in immediately available funds on the date of such assignment the principal of and interest accrued to the date of payment on the Loans and L/C Disbursements made by it hereunder and all other amounts accrued for its account or owed to it hereunder and shall cause all Letters of Credit issued by it to be canceled on such date.

SECTION 2.22. Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

55


(a) Facility Fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section�2.07(a);

(b) the Commitment and Revolving Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section�10.07); provided, that this clause (b)�shall not apply to the vote of a Defaulting Lender in the case of an amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of such Lender or each Lender affected thereby;

(c) if any L/C Exposure exists at the time such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then:

(i) unless a Default or an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, all or any part of the L/C Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Shares, but only to the extent the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders� Revolving Credit Exposures plus such Defaulting Lender�s L/C Exposure does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Lenders� Commitments;

(ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i)�above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, each Borrower shall within two Business Days following notice by the Administrative Agent cash collateralize for the benefit of the applicable Issuing Bank only such Borrower�s obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Lender�s L/C Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i)�above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Article VII for so long as such L/C Exposure is outstanding;

(iii) if a Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender�s L/C Exposure pursuant to clause (ii)�above, such Borrower shall not be required to pay any L/C Participation Fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section�2.07(c) with respect to such Defaulting Lender�s L/C Exposure during the period such Defaulting Lender�s L/C Exposure is cash collateralized;

(iv) if the L/C Exposure of the Defaulting Lender is reallocated pursuant to clause (i)�above, then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section�2.07(a) and Section�2.07(c) shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders� Applicable Shares; and

(v) if all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender�s L/C Exposure is neither reallocated nor cash collateralized pursuant to clause (i)�or (ii)�above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the applicable Issuing Bank or any other Lender hereunder, all Facility Fees that otherwise would have been payable to such Defaulting Lender (solely with respect to the portion of such Defaulting Lender�s Commitment that was utilized by such L/C Exposure) and L/C Participation Fees payable under Section�2.07(c) with respect to such Defaulting Lender�s L/C Exposure shall be payable to such Issuing Bank until and to the extent that such L/C Exposure is reallocated and/or cash collateralized; and

56


(d) so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, each Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit unless it is satisfied that the related exposure and the Defaulting Lender�s then outstanding L/C Exposure will be 100% covered by the Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the applicable Borrowers in accordance with Section�2.22(c), and participating interests in any newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section�2.22(c)(i) (and such Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein).

If (i)�a Bankruptcy Event with respect to a Lender Parent of any Lender shall occur following the date hereof and for so long as such event shall continue or (ii)�any Issuing Bank has a good faith belief that any Lender has defaulted in fulfilling its obligations under one or more other agreements in which such Lender commits to extend credit, such Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless such Issuing Bank shall have entered into arrangements with the applicable Borrowers or such Lender satisfactory to such Issuing Bank to defease any risk to it in respect of such Lender hereunder.

In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers and each Issuing Bank each agree that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the L/C Exposure of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender�s Commitment and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Lenders (other than Competitive Loans) as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Applicable Share.

ARTICLE VIII

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent as its agent and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of the Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.

Any bank serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender or an Issuing Bank as any other Lender or Issuing Bank and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and such bank and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Company or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not the Administrative Agent hereunder.

72


The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a)�the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b)�the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or to exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated by the Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith to be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in the Loan Documents), provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion, could expose the Administrative Agent to liability or be contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law, and (c)�except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Company or any Subsidiary that is communicated to or obtained by any bank serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith to be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in the Loan Documents) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or wilful misconduct, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and non-appealable judgment. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Administrative Agent by the Company, a Lender or an Issuing Bank, and the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i)�any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with any Loan Document, (ii)�the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered thereunder or in connection therewith, (iii)�the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth in any Loan Document, (iv)�the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v)�the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall not incur any liability for relying, upon any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Company), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

The Administrative Agent may perform any of and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any of and all their duties and

73


exercise their rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.

Subject to the terms of this paragraph, the Administrative Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Company. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Company, to appoint a successor. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a Lender with an office in the United States of America, having a combined capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000, or an Affiliate of any such Lender. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. The fees payable by the Company to the successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Company and such successor. After the Administrative Agent�s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section�10.02, as well as any exculpatory, reimbursement and indemnification provisions set forth in any other Loan Document, shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while it was acting as Administrative Agent or as sub-agent, as the case may be.

Each Lender and Issuing Bank acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or Issuing Bank, or any of the Related Parties of any of the foregoing, 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 Lender and Issuing Bank also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or Issuing Bank, or any of the Related Parties of any of the foregoing, and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

Each Lender, by delivering its signature page to this Agreement and funding its Loans on the Effective Date, or delivering its signature page to an Assignment and Assumption or an Accession Agreement pursuant to which it shall become a Lender hereunder, shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to and approved, each Loan Document and each other document required to be delivered to, or be approved by or satisfactory to, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders on the Effective Date.

74


No Lender or Issuing Bank shall have any right individually to enforce any guarantee of the Obligations, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies under the Loan Documents may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank in accordance with the terms thereof. Each Lender and each Issuing Bank will be deemed, by its acceptance of the benefits of the guarantees of the Obligations provided under the Loan Documents, to have agreed to the foregoing provisions.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, neither the Lead Arrangers nor any Person named on the cover page of this Agreement as a Syndication Agent, a Documentation Agent or a Joint Bookrunner shall have any duties or obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except in its capacity, as applicable, as a Lender or an Issuing Bank), but all such Persons shall have the benefit of the indemnities provided for hereunder.

ARTICLE IX

GUARANTEE.

SECTION 9.01. Guarantee. (a)�The Company hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees to each Lender, each Affiliate of a Lender to which any Obligations are owed, the Administrative Agent and their respective successors and assigns the prompt payment in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration, by optional prepayment or otherwise) of all the Obligations of each Subsidiary, in each case strictly in accordance with the terms thereof (such Obligations being herein collectively called the �Guaranteed Obligations�). The Company hereby further agrees that if any Subsidiary shall fail to pay in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration, by optional prepayment or otherwise) any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the Company will promptly pay the same, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal. The Company further agrees that its guarantee hereunder constitutes a guarantee of payment when due and not of collection.

(b) The obligations of the Company under this Article IX are absolute and unconditional irrespective of (i)�the authorization, value, genuineness, legality, validity, regularity or enforceability of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, (ii)�any modification, amendment or waiver of the terms of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, (iii)�any extension of time for performance or waiver of performance of any covenant of any Subsidiary or any failure or omission to enforce or delay in enforcing any right with regard to any of the Guaranteed Obligations, (iv)�any bankruptcy or insolvency of any Subsidiary, (v)�any exchange, surrender, release of any other guaranty of or security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or (vi)�any other circumstance whatsoever which may constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor, it being the intent hereof that the obligations of the Company hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances.

75


(c) The Company hereby expressly waives diligence, presentment, demand, protest and all notices whatsoever with regard to any of the Guaranteed Obligations and any requirement that the Administrative Agent or any Lender or other Person exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against any Subsidiary hereunder or under any other agreement or instrument or against any other guarantor of or any security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations.

(d) The Company further agrees that if payment in respect of any Guaranteed Obligation shall be due in a currency other than Dollars and/or at a place of payment other than New York and if, by reason of any law or regulation, disruption of currency or foreign exchange markets, war or civil disturbance or other event, payment of such Guaranteed Obligation in such currency or at such place of payment shall be impossible or, in the judgment of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, not consistent with the protection of its rights or interests, then, at the election of the Administrative Agent, the Company shall make payment of such Guaranteed Obligation in Dollars (based upon the applicable Exchange Rate in effect on the date of payment) and/or in New York, and shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender or Affiliate of a Lender against any losses or reasonable out-of-pocket expenses that it shall sustain as a result of such alternative payment.

(e) The guarantee in this Article IX shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of any Subsidiary in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder(s) of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise.

(f) Until the termination of the Commitments and the payment in full of the Obligations, the Company agrees not to enforce any rights arising by way of subrogation or contribution, whether arising by operation of law (including any such right arising under the Bankruptcy Code) or otherwise, arising from any payment by it pursuant to the provisions of this Article IX.

(g) The Company agrees that, as between the Company on the one hand and the Lenders and the Administrative Agent on the other hand, the Obligations of any Subsidiary guaranteed under this Agreement shall be declared to be forthwith due and payable, or may be deemed automatically to have been accelerated, as provided in Article VII, for purposes of this Article IX notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition (whether in a bankruptcy proceeding affecting such Subsidiary or otherwise) preventing such declaration as against such Subsidiary and that, in the event of such declaration or automatic acceleration such obligations (whether or not due and payable by such Subsidiary) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Company for purposes of this Article IX.

(h) The guarantee in this Article IX is a continuing guarantee and shall apply to all Guaranteed Obligations whenever arising.

All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrowers herein and in the certificates or other instruments prepared or delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the Lenders and the Issuing Banks and shall survive the making by the Lenders of the Loans and issuance of Letters of Credit regardless of any investigation made by the Lenders or the Issuing Banks or on their behalf, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any Fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid, any Letter of Credit is outstanding or the Commitments have not been terminated. The provisions of Sections�2.14, 2.16, 2.20 and 10.05 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the expiration of the term of this Agreement, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Loans, the expiration of any Letter of Credit, the expiration of the Commitments, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement, or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent or any Lender.

This Agreement shall become effective on the Effective Date and when it shall have been executed by the Company and the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received copies hereof (telecopied or otherwise) which, when taken together, bear the signature of each Lender, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto

78


and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Borrowers shall not have the right to assign any rights hereunder or any interest herein without the prior consent of all the Lenders.

SECTION 10.04. Successors and Assigns. (a)�Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the successors and assigns of such party; and all covenants, promises and agreements by or on behalf of any party that are contained in this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of its successors and assigns.

(b) Each Lender may assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided, however, that (i)�such assignment shall be subject to the prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of: (1)�the Company, unless (x)�the assignee is�a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, or (y)�an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; provided that the Company shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within 10 Business Days after having received notice thereof, (2)�the Administrative Agent, and (3)�each Issuing Bank, (ii)�the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, and a processing and recordation fee of $3,500, (iii)�the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire, (iv)�the amount of the Commitment assigned (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000, except in the event that the amount of the Commitment of such assigning Lender remaining after such assignment shall be zero or if such assignee is�a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, and (v)�without providing (1)�prior notice to the Administrative Agent and (2)�information reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent so that it may comply with information reporting requirements under the Code, no assignment shall be made to a prospective assignee that bears a relationship to any Borrower described in Section�108(e)(4) of the Code. Upon acceptance and recording pursuant to paragraph�(e) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, which effective date shall be at least five Business Days after the execution thereof, (A)�the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement and (B)�the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender�s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto (but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections�2.14, 2.16, 2.20 and�10.05, as well as to any Fees accrued for its account hereunder and not yet paid)). Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Lender assigning its rights and obligations under this Agreement may retain any Competitive Loans made by it outstanding at such time, and in such case shall retain its rights hereunder in respect of any Loans so retained until such Loans have been repaid in full in accordance with this Agreement.

79


(c) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Assumption, the assigning Lender thereunder and the assignee thereunder shall be deemed to confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i)�such assigning Lender warrants that it is the legal and beneficial owner of the interest being assigned thereby free and clear of any adverse claim, (ii)�except as set forth in (i)�above, such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement, or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or the financial condition of the Borrowers or the performance or observance by the Borrowers of any obligations under this Agreement or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (iii)�such assignee represents and warrants that it is legally authorized to enter into such Assignment and Assumption; (iv)�such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of the most recent financial statements delivered pursuant to Section�5.03 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Assumption; (v)�such assignee will independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, such assigning Lender or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement; (vi)�such assignee appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vii)�such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender.

(d) The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at one of its offices in The City of New�York a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and the principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the �Register�). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers and each other party hereto, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(e) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee together with an Administrative Questionnaire completed in respect of the assignee (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph�(b) above and the written consent of the Company to such assignment (if required under paragraph (a)�above), the Administrative Agent shall (i)�accept such Assignment and Assumption and (ii)�record the information contained therein in the Register. Each assignee, by its execution and delivery of an Assignment and Assumption, shall be deemed to have represented to the assigning Lender and the Administrative Agent that such assignee is an Eligible Assignee.

80


(f) Each Lender may sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (each, a �Participant�) in all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided, however, that (i)�such Lender�s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii)�such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii)�each Participant shall be entitled to the benefit of the cost protection provisions contained in Sections�2.14, 2.16 and�2.20 to the same extent as if it were the selling Lender (and limited to the amount that could have been claimed by the selling Lender had it continued to hold the interest of such Participant), except that all claims made pursuant to such Sections shall be made through such selling Lender, (iv)�the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such selling Lender in connection with such Lender�s rights and obligations under this Agreement and (v)�without providing (1)�prior notice to the Administrative Agent and (2)�information reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent so that it may comply with information reporting requirements under the Code, no participation shall be made to a prospective Participant that bears a relationship to any Borrower described in Section�108(e)(4) of the Code. In no event shall a Lender that sells a participation agree with the Participant to take or refrain from taking any action hereunder except that such Lender may agree with the Participant that it will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to (i)�increase or extend the term of such Lender�s Commitment, or extend the time or waive any requirement for the reduction or termination, of such Lender�s Commitment, (ii)�extend the date fixed for the payment of principal of or interest on the related Loans or any portion of any fee hereunder payable to the Participant, (iii)�reduce the amount of any such payment of principal or (iv)�reduce the rate at which interest is payable thereon, or any fee hereunder payable to the Participant, to a level below the rate at which the Participant is entitled to receive such interest or fee. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers (solely for tax purposes), maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant�s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the �Participant Register�); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant�s interest in any Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under this Agreement) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section�5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

(g) Any Lender or participant may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant any information relating to

81


the Borrowers furnished to such Lender; provided that, prior to any such disclosure, each such assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant shall execute an agreement for the benefit of the Company whereby such assignee or participant shall agree (subject to customary exceptions) to preserve the confidentiality of any such information.

(h) The Borrowers shall not assign or delegate any rights and duties hereunder without the prior written consent of all Lenders.

(i) Any Lender may at any time pledge all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to a Federal Reserve Bank or any central bank; provided that no such pledge shall release any Lender from its obligations hereunder or substitute any such Bank for such Lender as a party hereto. In order to facilitate such an assignment to a Federal Reserve Bank, each Borrower shall, at the request of the assigning Lender, duly execute and deliver to the assigning Lender a promissory note or notes evidencing the Loans made to such Borrower by the assigning Lender hereunder in the form of Exhibit�F.

SECTION 10.05. Expenses; Indemnity. (a)�The Borrowers agree to pay all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arrangers and the Joint Bookrunners named on the cover of this Agreement and their Affiliates in connection with the arrangement and syndication of the credit facility established hereby and the preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of the Loan Documents (and all related commitment or fee letters) or in connection with any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof, or incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with the administration, enforcement or protection of their rights in connection with the Loan Documents (including all such out-of pocket expenses incurred during any workout or restructuring) or in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent and each Lead Arranger and Joint Bookrunner or, in the case of enforcement or protection of their rights, the Lenders (which, in the case of preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery and administration of the Loan Documents, but not the enforcement or protection of rights thereunder, shall be limited to a single counsel for the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arrangers and the Joint Bookrunners).

(b) The Borrowers agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arrangers, the Syndication Agent and the Joint Bookrunners named on the cover page of this Agreement, the Issuing Banks, each Lender, each of their Affiliates and the directors, officers, employees and agents of the foregoing (each such Person being called an �Indemnitee�) against, and to hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related reasonable expenses, including reasonable counsel fees and expenses, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of (i)�the arrangement and syndication of the credit facility established hereby and the preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of the Loan Documents (and all related commitment or fee letters) or consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, (ii)�the use of the proceeds of the Loans or issuance of Letters of Credit (including any refusal by the Issuing Bank to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such

82


Letter of Credit) or (iii)�any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, regardless of whether initiated by any third party or by any Borrower and whether or not any Indemnitee is a party thereto and whether based on contract, tort or any other theory; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of such Indemnitee.

(c) The provisions of this Section shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the expiration of the term of this Agreement, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Loans, the expiration of any Letter of Credit, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks or any Lender. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable on written demand therefor.

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision, this Section�10.05 shall not apply with respect to any matters, liabilities or obligations relating to Taxes.

(e) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, no Borrower shall assert, and each Borrower hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof.

SECTION 10.06. APPLICABLE LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW�YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THEREOF OTHER THAN SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW.

SECTION 10.07. Waivers; Amendment. (a)�No failure or delay of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks or any Lender in exercising any power or right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies which they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph�(b) below, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice or demand on any Borrower or any Subsidiary in any case shall entitle such party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

83


(b) Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrowers and the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall (i)�increase the Commitment or L/C Exposure of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender, (ii)�reduce the principal amount of any Loan or L/C Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (iii)�postpone the date of any scheduled payment of the principal amount of any Loan or L/C Disbursement, or any interest thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (iv)�change Section�2.17, or change any other provision of any Loan Document in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender, (v)�change Section�10.04(h), (vi)�release the Company from its obligations under Section�5.09 or Article IX, or release substantially all the Significant Domestic Subsidiaries from their obligations under any Subsidiary Guarantee Agreements, or limit the liability of the Company under Article IX or of substantially all the Significant Domestic Subsidiaries under such Subsidiary Guarantee Agreements, without the written consent of each Lender, or (vii)�change any of the provisions of this Section or the definition of �Required Lenders� or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender; provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any provision of this Agreement may be amended by an agreement in writing entered into by the Borrowers, the Required Lenders and the Administrative Agent (and, if its rights or obligations are affected thereby, the Issuing Bank) if (i)�by the terms of such agreement the Commitment of each Lender not consenting to the amendment provided for therein shall terminate upon the effectiveness of such amendment and (ii)�at the time such amendment becomes effective, each Lender not consenting thereto receives payment in full of the principal of and interest accrued on each Loan made by it and all other amounts owing to it or accrued for its account under this Agreement.

SECTION 10.08. Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof, including the commitments of the Lenders and, if applicable, their Affiliates under any commitment letter and any commitment advices submitted by them in connection with the credit facility established hereby (but do not supersede any other provisions of any such commitment letter or fee letter (or any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank) that do not by the terms of such documents terminate upon the effectiveness of this Agreement, all of which provisions shall remain in full force and effect). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended to confer upon any party other than the parties hereto any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement.

84


SECTION 10.09. Severability. In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.

SECTION 10.10. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original but all of which when taken together shall constitute but one contract, and shall become effective as provided in Section�10.03.

Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Company and the Administrative Agent after such setoff and application made by such Lender, but the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have.

SECTION 10.13. JURISDICTION; CONSENT TO SERVICE OF PROCESS. (A)�EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS, FOR ITSELF AND ITS PROPERTY, TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY NEW YORK STATE COURT OR FEDERAL COURT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA SITTING IN NEW YORK COUNTY, AND ANY APPELLATE COURT FROM ANY THEREOF, IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY LETTER OF CREDIT, OR FOR RECOGNITION OR ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT, AND EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN SUCH NEW YORK STATE OR, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN SUCH FEDERAL COURT.

(C) EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE MANNER PROVIDED FOR NOTICES IN SECTION 10.01. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT WILL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW.

SECTION 10.14. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY HERETO (A)�CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B)�ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN�INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATION IN THIS SECTION.

SECTION 10.15. Borrowing Subsidiaries. The Company may at any time and from time to time designate any Subsidiary as a Borrowing Subsidiary by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement executed by such Subsidiary and the Company. As soon as practicable upon receipt thereof, the Administrative Agent shall post a copy of such Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement for review by the Lenders. Each Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement shall become effective on the date 10 Business Days after it has been posted by the Administrative Agent (but in no event before the fifth Business Day after the receipt by any Lender of any information reasonably requested by it under the USA Patriot Act or other �know-your-customer� laws not later than the third Business Day after the posting date of such Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement), unless prior thereto the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from any Lender (a)�that it is unlawful under Federal or applicable state or foreign law for such Lender to make Loans or otherwise extend credit to or do business with such Subsidiary as provided herein or (b)�solely with respect to such Subsidiaries that are organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside of the United States of

86


America, that such Lender is restricted by operational or administrative procedures or other applicable internal policies from extending credit under this Agreement to Persons in the jurisdiction in which such Subsidiary is located (a �Notice of Objection�), in which case such Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement shall not become effective until such time as such Lender withdraws such Notice of Objection or ceases to be a Lender hereunder. Upon the effectiveness of a Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement as provided in the preceding sentence, the applicable Subsidiary shall for all purposes of this Agreement be a Borrowing Subsidiary and a party to this Agreement. In the event that a Lender submits a Notice of Objection, the Company shall have the right, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, to require such Lender to transfer and assign without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section�10.04) all interests, rights and obligations contained hereunder to another financial institution which shall assume such obligations; provided that (i)�no such assignment shall conflict with any law, rule or regulation or order of any Governmental Authority and (ii)�the assignee or the applicable Borrowers, as the case may be, shall pay to the affected Lender in immediately available funds on the date of such assignment the principal of and interest accrued to the date of payment on the Loans made, and participations in L/C Disbursements acquired, by it hereunder and all other amounts accrued for its account or owed to it hereunder. Upon the execution by the Company and a Borrowing Subsidiary and delivery to the Administrative Agent of a Borrowing Subsidiary Termination with respect to such Borrowing Subsidiary, such Borrowing Subsidiary shall cease to be a Borrowing Subsidiary hereunder; provided that no Borrowing Subsidiary Termination will become effective as to any Borrowing Subsidiary (other than to terminate such Borrowing Subsidiary�s right to obtain further Loans or Letters of Credit under this Agreement) at a time when any principal of or interest on any Loan to such Borrowing Subsidiary or any Letter of Credit issued for the account of such Borrowing Subsidiary shall be outstanding hereunder. Promptly following receipt of any Borrowing Subsidiary Termination, the Administrative Agent shall send a copy thereof to each Lender.

SECTION 10.16. Conversion of Currencies.�(a)�If, for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum owing hereunder in one currency into another currency, each party hereto agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction the first currency could be purchased with such other currency on the Business Day immediately preceding the day on which final judgment is given.

(b) The obligations of the Borrowers in respect of any sum due to any party hereto or any holder of the obligations owing hereunder (the �Applicable Creditor�) shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the �Judgment Currency�) other than the currency in which such sum is stated to be due hereunder (the �Agreement Currency�), be discharged only to the extent that, on the Business Day following receipt by the Applicable Creditor of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Applicable Creditor may in accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency; if the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Applicable Creditor in the Agreement Currency, the Borrowers agree, as a separate

87


obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Applicable Creditor against such loss. The obligations of the Borrowers contained in this Section�10.16 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of all other amounts owing hereunder.

SECTION 10.17. USA PATRIOT Act. Each Lender hereby notifies the Borrowers that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Loan Parties, which information includes the name and address of each Loan Party and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Loan Parties in accordance with its requirements.

SECTION 10.18. No Fiduciary Relationship. The Company, on behalf of itself and its subsidiaries, agrees that in connection with all aspects of the transactions contemplated hereby and any communications in connection therewith, the Company, the Subsidiaries and their Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and their Affiliates, on the other hand, will have a business relationship that does not create, by implication or otherwise, any fiduciary duty on the part of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks or their Affiliates, and no such duty will be deemed to have arisen in connection with any such transactions or communications.

SECTION 10.19. Non-Public Information. (a)�Each Lender acknowledges that all non-public information, including requests for waivers and amendments, furnished by the Company or the Administrative Agent pursuant to or in connection with, or in the course of administering, this Agreement will be syndicate-level information, which may contain MNPI. Each Lender hereby advises the Company and the Administrative Agent that (i)�it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of MNPI and that it will handle MNPI in accordance with such procedures and applicable law, including Federal, state and foreign securities laws, and (ii)�it has identified in its Administrative Questionnaire a credit contact who may receive information that may contain MNPI in accordance with its compliance procedures and applicable law, including Federal, state and foreign securities laws.

(b) Each Borrower and each Lender acknowledges that, if information furnished by any Borrower pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement is being distributed by the Administrative Agent through the Platform, (i)�the Administrative Agent may post any information that such Borrower has indicated as containing MNPI solely on that portion of the Platform designated for representatives of Lenders that are willing to receive MNPI and (ii)�if such Borrower has not indicated whether any information furnished by it pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement contains MNPI, the Administrative Agent reserves the right to post such information solely on that portion of the Platform designated for representatives of Lenders that are willing to receive MNPI. Each Borrower agrees to clearly designate all information provided to the Administrative Agent that constitutes MNPI, and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely on any such designation without liability or responsibility for the independent verification thereof.

88


SECTION 10.20. Release of Subsidiary Guarantees. (a)�A Subsidiary shall automatically be released from its obligations under any Subsidiary Guarantee Agreement upon the consummation of any transaction permitted by this Agreement as a result of which such Subsidiary ceases to be a Subsidiary. A Subsidiary shall also be released from its obligations under any Subsidiary Guarantee Agreement (subject to the requirement that it again become a guarantor of the Obligations if required under Section�5.09) if the following conditions have been satisfied:

(i) the Company shall have both (i)�a Rating of at least BBB- from S&P and (ii)�a Rating of at least Baa3 from Moody�s;

(ii) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; and

(iii) the Company shall have requested the release of such Subsidiary from its obligations under such Subsidiary Guarantee Agreement and shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent a certificate, executed on behalf of the Company by a Responsible Officer, confirming the satisfaction of the Conditions set forth in the preceding clauses (i)�and (ii).

In connection with any release pursuant to this Section, the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized to execute and deliver all such documents as the Company shall reasonably request to evidence such release. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this paragraph shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 10.21. Permitted Reorganization. (a)�Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Company may, on not less than 30 Business Days� (or such shorter period as the Administrative Agent may agree) notice to the Administrative Agent (which notice shall refer to this Section�10.21), become a wholly-owned subsidiary of a corporation newly organized under the laws of a jurisdiction in the United States (the �New Holding Company�) by means of a merger of the Company into a newly-organized subsidiary (organized under the laws of a jurisdiction in the United States) of the New Holding Company or another transaction or series of transactions that achieves the same result, subject, however, to the satisfaction of the following conditions:

(i) Not later than the second Business Day following the date on which the Company becomes a subsidiary of the New Holding Company, the New Holding Company shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an instrument of assumption reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (the �Instrument of Assumption�) pursuant to which it shall assume all the obligations of the Company under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(ii) Prior to the effectiveness of the assumption referred to in the preceding clause (a), no assets of the Company shall be transferred to the New Holding Company, and the assets of the New Holding Company shall consist solely of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the Company.

(iii) The Administrative Agent shall have received documents of the types referred to in Section�4.02(b) evidencing the corporate power and authority of the New Holding Company to become a party to and perform its obligations under this Agreement.

89


(iv) The Administrative Agent shall have received one or more favorable written opinions of counsel to the New Holding Company, reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Administrative Agent, covering as to the New Holding Company the matters covered by the opinions delivered pursuant to Section�4.02(a) and such other matters as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request.

(v) The Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate, dated the effective date of the assumption referred to in the preceding clause (a)�and signed by a Financial Officer of the Company, confirming compliance with the conditions precedent set forth in paragraphs�(b) and (c)�of Section�4.01 (with all references in such paragraphs to a Borrowing being deemed to refer to such assumption and without giving effect to the parenthetical in such paragraph (b)).

(vi) The Credit Parties shall have received all documentation and other information with respect to the New Holding Company required by bank regulatory authorities under applicable �know your customer� and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the USA PATRIOT Act.

(vii) If a Ratings Condition shall exist, the Administrative Agent shall have received a Subsidiary Guarantee Agreement executed and delivered by the Company.

(b) Upon the execution and delivery to the Administrative Agent of the Instrument of Assumption and the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in the preceding paragraph (a), the New Holding Company shall become a party to this Agreement, shall succeed to and assume all the rights and obligations of the Company under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including all obligations in respect of outstanding Loans and Letters of Credit borrowed by or issued for the account of the Company) and shall thenceforth, for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (other than Section�6.04(c), this Section�10.21 and the definition of �Permitted Reorganization�), be the �Company� and a Borrower, and the corporation identified as the �Company� in the heading of this Agreement (ITT Corporation, an Indiana corporation) shall be a Subsidiary of the New Holding Company.

(c) In connection with the transactions referred to in this Section, the Lenders agree that the Administrative Agent and the Company may, without the consent of any other party, effect such technical and conforming amendments to this Agreement as they shall agree to be appropriate to reflect the substitution of the New Holding Company as the �Company� hereunder and otherwise to give effect to the intent of this Section. A copy of any amendment effected pursuant to this paragraph (c)�shall be promptly made available to each Lender.

Accordingly, the parties hereto agree as follows:

SECTION 1. Defined Terms. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Credit Agreement. The rules of construction set forth in Section�1.02 of the Credit Agreement shall apply to this Agreement, mutatis mutandis.

SECTION 2. Letter of Credit Commitment. The Issuing Bank hereby agrees to be an �Issuing Bank� under, and subject to the terms and conditions hereof and of the Credit Agreement, to issue Letters of Credit under, the Credit Agreement; provided, however, that Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Bank hereunder shall be subject to the limitations, if any, set forth on Schedule I hereto, in addition to the limitations set forth in the Credit Agreement.

SECTION 3. Issuance Procedure. In order to request the issuance of a Letter of Credit hereunder, the applicable Borrower (or the Company on behalf of the applicable Borrower) shall hand deliver or fax a notice (specifying the information required by Section�2.05(b) of the Credit Agreement) to the Issuing Bank, at its address or fax number specified on Schedule I hereto (or such other address or fax number as the Issuing Bank may specify by notice to the Company), not later than the time of day (local time at such address) specified on Schedule I hereto prior to the proposed date of issuance of such Letter of Credit. A copy of such notice shall be sent, concurrently, by the applicable Borrower (or the Company on behalf of the applicable Borrower) to the Administrative Agent in the manner specified for Borrowing Requests under the Credit Agreement. Upon receipt of such notice, the Issuing Bank shall consult the Administrative Agent by telephone in order to determine (i)�whether the conditions specified in the last sentence of Section�2.05(b) of the Credit Agreement will be satisfied in connection with the issuance of such Letter of Credit and (ii)�whether the requested expiration date for such Letter of Credit complies with the proviso to Section�2.05(c) of the Credit Agreement.

SECTION 5. Credit Agreement Terms. Notwithstanding any provision hereof which may be construed to the contrary, it is expressly understood and agreed that (a)�this Agreement is supplemental to the Credit Agreement and is intended to constitute an Issuing Bank Agreement, as defined therein (and, as such, constitutes an integral part of the Credit Agreement as though the terms of this Agreement were set forth in the Credit Agreement), (b)�each Letter of Credit issued hereunder and each and every L/C Disbursement made under any such Letter of Credit shall constitute a �Letter of Credit� and an �L/C Disbursement�, respectively, for all purposes of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (c)�the Issuing Bank�s commitment to issue Letters of Credit hereunder and each and every Letter of Credit requested or issued hereunder shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement and entitled to the benefits of the Loan Documents and (d)�the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement are hereby incorporated herein as though set forth herein in full and shall supersede any contrary provisions hereof.
