(“Bank of America”), as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent” or “Agent”) for the Lenders (as hereinafter defined), hereby agree as follows:

PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS:

     The Borrower, Bank of America (as Administrative Agent) and certain lenders party thereto (the “Existing Lenders”) entered into that certain Five Year Credit Agreement dated March 31, 2005 pursuant to which the Existing Lenders provided the Borrower with a revolving credit facility in an initial principal amount of up to $900,000,000 (the “Existing Credit Agreement”). To facilitate a corporate reorganization of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries resulting in (i) the formation of the Parent as the holding company of the Borrower (and the Borrower as a wholly owned Subsidiary of the Parent) and (ii) the distribution by the Borrower to the Parent of the Borrower’s ownership interest in certain of its foreign subsidiaries (the “Reorganization”), the Borrower has requested that the Administrative Agent and the Existing Lenders amend and restate the Existing Credit Agreement (the “Amendment and Restatement”) upon the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the Swing Line Lender.

     (ii) If for any reason any Swing Line Loan cannot be refinanced by such an Advance in accordance with Section 2.03(c)(i), the request for Base Rate Advances submitted by the Swing Line Lender as set forth herein shall be deemed to be a request by the Swing Line Lender that each of the Lenders fund its risk participation in the relevant Swing Line Loan and each Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) shall be deemed payment in respect of such participation.

     (iii) If any Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.03(c) by the time specified in Section 2.03(c)(i), the Swing Line Lender shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment

is immediately available to the Swing Line Lender at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Swing Line Lender in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. A certificate of the Swing Line Lender submitted to any Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (iii) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

     (iv) Each Lender’s obligation to make Advances or to purchase and fund risk participations in Swing Line Loans pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against the Swing Line Lender, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Lender’s obligation to make Advances pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 3.02. No such funding of risk participations shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrower to repay Swing Line Loans, together with interest as provided herein.

(d) Repayment of Participations.

     (i) At any time after any Lender has purchased and funded a risk participation in a Swing Line Loan, if the Swing Line Lender receives any payment on account of such Swing Line Loan, the Swing Line Lender will distribute to such Lender its Pro Rata Share of such payment (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Lender’s risk participation was funded) in the same funds as those received by the Swing Line Lender.

     (ii) If any payment received by the Swing Line Lender in respect of principal or interest on any Swing Line Loan is required to be returned by the Swing Line Lender (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Swing Line Lender in its discretion), each Lender shall pay to the Swing Line Lender its Pro Rata Share thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate. The Administrative Agent will make such demand upon the request of the Swing Line Lender. The obligations of the Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the all amounts owing hereunder and under any Loan Document and the termination of this Agreement.

     (e) Interest for Account of Swing Line Lender. The Swing Line Lender shall be responsible for invoicing the Borrower for interest on the Swing Line Loans. Until a Lender funds its Base Rate Advance or risk participation pursuant to this Section 2.03 to refinance such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any Swing Line Loan, interest in respect of such Pro Rata Share shall be solely for the account of the Swing Line Lender, and after such Lender funds its Base Rate Advance or risk participation pursuant to this Section 2.03 to refinance such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any Swing Line Loan, such interest shall be for the account of such Lender.

     (f) Payments Directly to Swing Line Lender. The Borrower shall make all payments of principal and interest in respect of the Swing Line Loans directly to the Swing Line Lender.

     Section 2.04 Fees.

     (a) Facility Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a facility fee on the aggregate amount of such Lender’s Commitment from the Effective Date in the case of each Initial Lender and from the effective date specified in the Assumption Agreement or the Assignment and Assumption pursuant to which it became a Lender in the case of each other Lender until the Termination Date at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Percentage in effect from time to time, payable in arrears quarterly on the last day of each March, June, September and December (each, a “Facility Fee Payment Date”), commencing with the Facility Fee Payment Date first occurring after the Effective Date, and on the Termination Date.

     (b) Agent’s Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for its own account such fees as may from time to time be agreed between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, including without limitation in the Fee Letter.

     Section 2.05 Termination, Reduction or Increase of the Commitments.

     (a) Termination or Reduction. The Borrower shall have the right, upon at least three Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, to terminate in whole or permanently reduce ratably in part the unused portions of the respective Commitments of the Lenders, provided that each partial reduction of the Total Commitment shall be in the aggregate amount of $50,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof.

     (b) Increase in Aggregate of the Commitments. The Borrower may at any time, by notice to the Administrative Agent, propose that the Total Commitment be increased (such aggregate amount being, a “Commitment Increase”), effective as at a date prior to the Termination Date (an “Increase Date”) as to which agreement is to be reached by an earlier date specified in such notice (a “Commitment Date”); provided, however, that (A) the Borrower may not propose more than two Commitment Increases in any twelve month period, (B) the minimum proposed Commitment Increase per notice shall be $50,000,000, (C) in no event shall the Total Commitment at any time exceed $1,200,000,000, (D) at the time of and after giving effect to such Commitment Increase, the Debt/EBITDA Ratio is less than or equal to 2.75:1.00, (E) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing on such Increase Date and (F) an officer’s certificate as to corporate authorization for such Commitment Increase and other appropriate documentation reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, any Increasing Lender (as defined below) or any Assuming Lender are received by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders thereof promptly upon its receipt of any such notice. The Administrative Agent agrees that it will cooperate with the Borrower in discussions with the Lenders and other Eligible Assignees with a view to arranging the proposed Commitment Increase through the increase of the Commitments of one or more of the Lenders (each such Lender that is willing to increase its Commitment hereunder being an “Increasing Lender”) and the addition of one or more other Eligible Assignees as Assuming Lenders and as parties to this Agreement; provided, however, that it shall be in each Lender’s sole discretion

whether to increase its Commitment hereunder in connection with the proposed Commitment Increase; and provided further that the minimum Commitment of each such Assuming Lender that becomes a party to this Agreement pursuant to this Section 2.05(b), shall be at least equal to $25,000,000. If any of the Lenders agree to increase their respective Commitments by an aggregate amount in excess of the proposed Commitment Increase, the proposed Commitment Increase shall be allocated among such Lenders as determined at such time by the Borrower. If agreement is reached on or prior to the applicable Commitment Date with any Increasing Lenders and Assuming Lenders as to a Commitment Increase (which may be less than but not greater than specified in the applicable notice from the Borrower), such agreement to be evidenced by a notice in reasonable detail from the Borrower to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the applicable Commitment Date, such Assuming Lenders, if any, shall become Lenders hereunder as of the applicable Increase Date, the Commitments of such Assuming Lenders shall be, as of the Increase Date, the amounts specified in such notice and the Commitments of each Increasing Lender shall be, as of the Increase Date, increased by the amounts specified in such notice; provided that:

     (x) the Administrative Agent shall have received (with copies for each Lender, including each such Assuming Lender) by no later than 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the applicable Increase Date a copy certified by the Secretary, an Assistant Secretary or a comparable officer of the Borrower, of the resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors of the Borrower authorizing such Commitment Increase;

     (y) each such Assuming Lender shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent by no later than 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) on such Increase Date, an appropriate Assumption Agreement in substantially the form of Exhibit D hereto, duly executed by such Assuming Lender and the Borrower; and

     (z) each such Increasing Lender shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent by no later than 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) on such Increase Date confirmation in writing satisfactory to the Administrative Agent as to its increased Commitment.

     (c) In the event that the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower as to its agreement to a Commitment Increase on or prior to the applicable Commitment Date and each of the actions provided for in clauses (x) through (z) above shall have occurred prior to 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the applicable Increase Date to the satisfaction of the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders (including any Assuming Lenders) and the Borrower of the occurrence of such Commitment Increase by telephone, confirmed immediately in writing, and in any event no later than 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on such Increase Date and shall record in the Register the relevant information with respect to each Increasing Lender and Assuming Lender. Each Increasing Lender and each Assuming Lender shall, before 2:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the applicable Increase Date, make available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Administrative Agent at the applicable Administrative Agent’s Account, in Same Day Funds, in the case of such Assuming Lender, an amount equal to such Assuming Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Borrowings then outstanding (calculated based on its Commitment as a percentage of the

aggregate Commitments outstanding after giving effect to the relevant Commitment Increase) and, in the case of such Increasing Lender, an amount equal to the excess of (i) such Increasing Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Borrowings then outstanding (calculated based on its Commitment as a percentage of the aggregate Commitments outstanding after giving effect to the relevant Commitment Increase) over (ii) such Increasing Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Borrowings then outstanding (calculated based on its Commitment (without giving effect to the relevant Commitment Increase) as a percentage of the aggregate Commitments (without giving effect to the relevant Commitment Increase). After the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such funds from each such Increasing Lender and each such Assuming Lender, the Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed like funds to the other Lenders for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices in an amount to each other Lender such that the aggregate amount of the outstanding Advances owing to each Lender after giving effect to such distribution equals such Lender’s ratable portion of the Borrowings then outstanding (calculated based on its Commitment as a percentage of the aggregate Commitments outstanding after giving effect to the relevant Commitment Increase), provided that the Borrower will be subject to the payment of other costs, if any, pursuant to Section 8.04(c) in connection with any such distribution. Within five Business Days after the Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent, the Borrower, at its own expense, shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent Notes payable to the order of each Assuming Lender, if any, and, each Increasing Lender, dated as of the applicable Increase Date, in a principal amount equal to such Lender’s Commitment after giving effect to the relevant Commitment Increase, and substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto. The Administrative Agent, upon receipt of such Notes, shall promptly deliver such Notes to the respective Assuming Lenders and Increasing Lenders.

     (d) In the event that the Administrative Agent shall not have received notice from the Borrower as to such agreement on or prior to the applicable Commitment Date or the Borrower shall, by notice to the Administrative Agent prior to the applicable Increase Date, withdraw its proposal for a Commitment Increase or any of the actions provided for above in clauses (b)(i)(x) through (b)(i)(z) shall not have occurred by 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) on such Increase Date, such proposal by the Borrower shall be deemed not to have been made. In such event, any actions theretofore taken under clauses (b)(i)(x) through (b)(i)(z) above shall be deemed to be of no effect and all the rights and obligations of the parties shall continue as if no such proposal had been made.

     Section 2.06 Repayment of Advances.

     (a) The Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Lenders on the Termination Date the aggregate principal amount of all Advances then outstanding together with all accrued and unpaid interest, fees and costs associated therewith. Repayments made pursuant to this clause (a) shall be in the same currency in which such outstanding Advances were made.

     (b) The Borrower shall repay each Swing Line Loan together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon on the earlier to occur of (i) the date twenty-one (21) days after such Swing Line Loan is made and (ii) the Termination Date.

     Section 2.07 Interest on Advances.

     (a) Scheduled Interest. The Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Advance owing to each Lender from the date of such Advance until such principal amount shall be paid in full, at the following rates per annum:

     (i) Base Rate Advances. During such periods as such Advance is a Base Rate Advance, a rate per annum equal at all times to the sum of (x) the Base Rate in effect from time to time plus (y) the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time, payable in arrears quarterly on the last day of each March, June, September and December during such periods and on the date such Base Rate Advance shall be Converted or paid in full.

     (iii) Swing Line Loans. With respect to each Swing Line Loan, a rate per annum equal at all times to (i) the sum of (x) the Base Rate in effect from time to time plus (y) the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Advances in effect from time to time, or (ii) such other rate from time to time offered by the Swing Line Lender and accepted by the Borrower, in either event payable in arrears on the date of repayment or refinancing, in whole or in part, of such Swing Line Loan.

     (b) Default Interest. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Borrower shall pay interest on (i) the unpaid principal amount of each Advance owing to each Lender, payable in arrears on the dates referred to in clause (a)(i) or (a)(ii) above, at a rate per annum equal at all times to 2% per annum above the rate per annum required to be paid on such Advance pursuant to clause (a)(i) or (a)(ii) above and (ii) to the fullest extent permitted by law, the amount of any interest, fee or other amount payable hereunder that is not paid when due, from the date such amount shall be due until such amount shall be paid in full, payable in arrears on the date such amount shall be paid in full and on demand, at a rate per annum equal at all times to 2% per annum above the rate per annum required to be paid on Base Rate Advances pursuant to clause (a)(i) above.

     Section 2.08 Interest Rate Determination.

     (a) The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the Borrower and the Lenders of the applicable interest rate determined by the Administrative Agent for purposes of Section 2.07(a)(i) or (ii).

     (b) If, with respect to any Eurocurrency Rate Advances, the Required Lenders notify the Administrative Agent that the Eurocurrency Rate for any Interest Period for such Advances

will not adequately reflect the cost to such Required Lenders of making, funding or maintaining their respective Eurocurrency Rate Advances for such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith so notify the Borrower and the Lenders, whereupon (i) each Eurocurrency Rate Advance will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into a Base Rate Advance, and (ii) the obligation of the Lenders to make, or to Convert Base Rate Advances into, Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist.

     (c) If the Borrower shall fail to select the duration of any Interest Period for any Eurocurrency Rate Advances in accordance with the provisions contained in the definition of “Interest Period” in Section 1.02, the Administrative Agent will forthwith so notify the Borrower and the Lenders and such Advances will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period for such Eurocurrency Rate Advance, Convert into Base Rate Advances.

     (d) On the date on which the aggregate unpaid principal amount of Eurocurrency Rate Advances comprising any Borrowing shall be reduced, by payment or prepayment or otherwise, to less than $5,000,000, such Advances shall automatically Convert into Base Rate Advances.

     (e) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, (i) each Eurocurrency Rate Advance will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into a Base Rate Advance and (ii) the obligation of the Lenders to make, or to Convert Advances into, Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall be suspended.

     Section 2.09 Optional Conversion of Advances. The Borrower may on any Business Day, upon notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the third Business Day, with respect to Advances in Dollars, or the fifth Business Day, with respect to Advances in Sterling, prior to the date of the proposed Conversion and subject to the provisions of Sections 2.08 and 2.12, Convert all Advances of one Type comprising the same Borrowing into Advances of the other Type; provided, however, that any Conversion of Eurocurrency Rate Advances into Base Rate Advances shall be made only on the last day of an Interest Period for such Eurocurrency Rate Advances, any Conversion of Base Rate Advances into Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall be in an amount not less than the minimum amount specified in Section 2.02(b) and no Conversion of any Advances shall result in more separate Eurocurrency Rate Borrowings than permitted under Section 2.02(b). Each such notice of a Conversion shall, within the restrictions specified above, specify (i) the date of such Conversion, (ii) the Advances to be Converted, and (iii) if such Conversion is into Eurocurrency Rate Advances, the duration of the initial Interest Period for each such Advance. Each notice of Conversion shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower.

     Section 2.10 Prepayments of Advances.

     (a) Optional Prepayments. The Borrower may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent stating the proposed date and aggregate principal amount of the prepayment, given not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the third Business Day, with respect to Advances in Dollars, or the fifth Business Day, with respect to Advances in Sterling, prior to the date of

such proposed prepayment, in the case of Eurocurrency Rate Advances, and not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the day of such proposed prepayment, in the case of Base Rate Advances, and if such notice is given the Borrower shall, prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Advances comprising part of the same Borrowing in whole or ratably in part, together with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid, with such prepayment to be made in the currency in which such Advances were made; provided, however, that (x) except in the case of prepayments of Swing Line Loans, as described in clause (z) below, each partial prepayment shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $5,000,000 or the Equivalent thereof in Sterling or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 or the Equivalent thereof in Sterling in excess thereof, (y) in the event of any such prepayment of a Eurocurrency Rate Advance, the Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the Lenders in respect thereof pursuant to Section 8.04(c) and (z) in the case of a Swing Line Loan, the Borrower may prepay the outstanding principal amount of such Swing Line Loan, together with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid, at any time in minimum increments of $100,000.

     (b) Mandatory Prepayments.

     (i) If at any time the sum of (A) the aggregate principal amount of all Advances denominated in Dollars then outstanding plus (B) the Equivalent in Dollars of the aggregate principal amount of all Advances denominated in Sterling then outstanding exceeds the Total Commitment on such date, the Borrower shall, within two Business Days after receipt of such notice given pursuant to (ii) below, prepay the outstanding principal amount of any Advances in an aggregate amount sufficient to reduce such sum to an amount not to exceed the Total Commitment on such date.

     (ii) Each prepayment made pursuant to this Section 2.10(b) (A) shall be made together with any interest accrued to the date of such prepayment on the principal amounts prepaid and, in the case of any prepayment of a Eurocurrency Rate Advance on a date other than the last day of an Interest Period or at its maturity, any additional amounts which such Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse to the Lenders in respect thereof pursuant to Section 8.04(c), and (B) shall be made in the currency in which the Advances subject to such prepayment were made. The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice of any prepayment required under this Section 2.10(b) to the Borrower and the Lenders.

     (c) Hedging Agreements. All Hedging Agreements, if any, between Borrower and any Lender or its affiliates are independent agreements governed by the written provisions of such Hedging Agreements, which will remain in full force and effect, unaffected by any repayment, prepayment, acceleration, reduction, increase or change in terms of this Agreement or the Notes, except as otherwise expressly provided in said written swap agreements, and any payoff statements from the Administrative Agent relating to this Agreement shall not apply to said Hedging Agreements, except as otherwise expressly provided in such payoff statement.

     Section 2.11 Increased Costs.

     (a) If, due to either (i) the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation occurring after the date hereof, (ii) the compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law) issued or made after the date hereof, or (iii) the Mandatory Cost, as calculated hereunder, not representing the cost to any Lender of complying with the requirements of the Bank of England and/or the Financial Services Authority or the European Central Bank in relation to its making, funding or maintaining Eurocurrency Rate Advances, there shall be any increase in the cost to any Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining Eurocurrency Rate Advances (excluding for purposes of this Section 2.11 any such increased costs resulting from (i) Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (as to which Section 2.14 shall govern) and (ii) changes in taxes measured by or imposed upon the net income or gross income or franchise taxes, or taxes measured by or imposed upon capital or net worth, or branch taxes, of such Lender or its Applicable Lending Office), then the Borrower shall from time to time, within ten days of demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender for such increased cost; provided that, before making any such demand, each Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different Applicable Lending Office if the making of such a designation would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such additional cost and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

     (b) If any Lender reasonably determines that compliance with any law or regulation or any guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental authority regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) issued or made after the date hereof affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender and that the amount of such capital is increased by or based upon the existence of such Lender’s commitment to lend hereunder and other commitments of this type, and such Lender reasonably determines that the rate of return on its or such controlling corporation’s capital as a consequence is reduced to a level below that which such Lender or such controlling corporation would have achieved but for the occurrence of such conditions, then, within ten days of demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender, from time to time as specified by such Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender or such corporation in the light of such circumstances, to the extent that such Lender reasonably determines such increase in capital to be allocable to the existence of such Lender’s commitment to lend hereunder.

     (c) If a Lender changes its Applicable Lending Office (other than pursuant to this Section 2.11 or Section 2.12 or 2.14(h)) and the effect of such change, as of the date of such change, would be to cause the Borrower to become obligated to pay any additional amounts under this Section 2.11, the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay such additional amount.

     (d) A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount of any claim made under this Section 2.11 and identifying with reasonable specificity the basis for calculating such amount,

shall be delivered to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

     Section 2.12 Illegality; Circumstances Affecting Availability. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent (who will promptly notify the Borrower and the other Lenders) that the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation after the date hereof makes it unlawful, or any central bank or other governmental authority asserts that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its Eurocurrency Lending Office to perform its obligations hereunder to make Eurocurrency Rate Advances or to fund or maintain Eurocurrency Rate Advances hereunder, or if the Administrative Agent determines that by reason of circumstances affecting foreign exchange and interbank markets generally, the Eurocurrency Rate cannot be determined, then (A) each Eurocurrency Rate Advance will automatically, upon such demand, Convert into a Base Rate Advance, and (B) the obligation of the Lenders to make Eurocurrency Rate Advances or to Convert Base Rate Advances into Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension or inability to determine the Eurocurrency Rate no longer exist or that such Lender has entered into one or more Assignment and Assumptions pursuant to Section 8.06 assigning its Commitment to one or more Eligible Assignees; provided that, before making any such demand, each Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different Applicable Lending Office if the making of such a designation would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

     Section 2.13 Payments Generally and Computations.

     (a) General. All payments hereunder and under the Notes to be made by the Borrower shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. The Borrower shall make each payment hereunder and under the Notes not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the day when due in Dollars, in the case of Advances denominated in Dollars, or in Sterling, in the case of Advances denominated in Sterling, to the Administrative Agent at the applicable Administrative Agent’s Account in Same Day Funds. The Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal or interest or facility fees ratably (other than amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.11, 2.14 or 8.04(c)) to the Lenders for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices, and like funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any Lender to such Lender for the account of its Applicable Lending Office, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon its acceptance of an Assignment and Assumption and recording of the information contained therein in the Register pursuant to Section 8.06(c), from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment and Assumption, the Administrative Agent shall make all payments hereunder and under the Notes in respect of the interest assigned thereby to the Lender assignee thereunder, and the parties to such Assignment and Assumption shall make all appropriate adjustments in such payments for periods prior to such effective date directly between themselves. Upon any Assuming Lender becoming a Lender hereunder as a result of a Commitment Increase pursuant to Section 2.05(b) and upon the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such Lender’s Assumption Agreement and recording the information contained therein in the Register, from and after the

applicable Increase Date, the Administrative Agent shall make all payments hereunder and under the Notes in respect of the interest assumed thereby to such Assuming Lender.

     (b) All computations of interest based on the Base Rate or the Federal Funds Rate shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and all computations of interest based on the Eurocurrency Rate, of interest for Swing Line Loans if not based on the Base Rate, and of facility fees, shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days, in each case for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest or facility fees are payable. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

     (c) Whenever any payment hereunder or under the Notes shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or facility fee, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of Eurocurrency Rate Advances to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day.

     (d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Lenders hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent the Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent, each Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Lender together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date such Lender repays such amount to the Administrative Agent, at the Overnight Rate.

     Section 2.14 Taxes.

     (a) Except as otherwise required by law, any and all payments by the Borrower hereunder or under the Notes issued hereunder shall be made, in accordance with Section 2.13, free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings and all liabilities with respect thereto (all such taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings, and liabilities in respect of payments hereunder or under the Notes being hereafter referred to as “Taxes”), excluding, in the case of payments made to any Lender or the Administrative Agent (A) Taxes imposed on or measured by its net income, and franchise Taxes, branch Taxes, Taxes on doing business and Taxes measured by or imposed upon its capital or net worth, in each case imposed as a result of such Lender (and or such Lender’s Applicable Lending Office) or the Administrative Agent being organized under the laws of, or being a legal resident of, or having a fixed place of business or a permanent establishment or doing business in the jurisdiction imposing such Tax (other than any such connection arising solely from such Lender (and or such Lender’s Applicable Lending Office) or the Administrative Agent having executed, delivered or performed its obligations, or having

received a payment, or having enforced its rights and remedies, under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents), (B) United Kingdom withholding Taxes except to the extent such United Kingdom withholding Taxes would not have been imposed but for a change, after the date such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) becomes a party hereto, in United Kingdom tax law or United Kingdom officially published Inland Revenue practice or an amendment or revocation, after the date such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) becomes a party hereto, of an applicable United Kingdom income tax treaty with Austria, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Iceland, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland or the United States, (C) United Kingdom Taxes imposed as a result of the failure of the Inland Revenue to approve, on or before a payment of interest to a Lender hereunder, a claim by such Lender for exemption from such United Kingdom Taxes, where such failure is due to such Lender’s failure to timely submit a validly completed and executed Treaty Form within a time sufficient for the Inland Revenue to approve such Lender’s claim prior to such payment of interest, it being understood that after any such approval by the Inland Revenue of such Lender’s claim for exemption, such United Kingdom Taxes with respect to such Lender shall not be excluded from the application of this Section 2.14(a), and (D) United States withholding Taxes except to the extent such United States withholding Taxes are imposed solely as a result of (1) a change, after the date such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) becomes a party hereto, in the Internal Revenue Code or any regulations promulgated thereunder (or in the official interpretation of the Internal Revenue Code or any regulations promulgated thereunder) or an amendment or revocation or change in official interpretation, after the date such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) becomes a party hereto, of an applicable United States income tax treaty with Austria, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Iceland, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Sweden or the United Kingdom or (2) the failure by the Borrower to timely request an updated or successor Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI, as appropriate, under Section 2.14(e) (all such non-excluded Taxes hereinafter referred to as “Indemnifiable Taxes”). If the Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any Indemnifiable Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under any Note issued hereunder to any Lender or the Administrative Agent or, if the Administrative Agent shall be required by law to deduct any Indemnifiable Taxes from or in respect of any sum paid or payable hereunder or under any Note to any Lender, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions for Indemnifiable Taxes (including deductions for Indemnifiable Taxes, whether by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.14) such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower (or, as the case may be and as required by applicable law, the Administrative Agent) shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrower (or, as the case may be and as required by applicable law, the Administrative Agent) shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law.

     (b) In addition, the Borrower shall pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise (other than income) or property taxes, charges or similar levies that arise from any payment made hereunder or under the Notes or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or performing under this Agreement or the Notes or any document to be furnished under or in connection with any thereof or any modification or amendment in respect of this Agreement or the Notes (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”).

     (c) The Borrower shall indemnify each Lender and the Administrative Agent for the full amount of Indemnifiable Taxes or Other Taxes imposed on or paid by such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto. This indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) makes written demand therefor.

     (d) Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Indemnifiable Taxes under Section 2.14(a) by the Borrower, the Borrower shall furnish to the Administrative Agent, at its address referred to in Section 8.02, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing such payment to the extent such receipt is received by the Borrower, or other written proof of payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent showing payment thereof. In the case of any payment hereunder or under the Notes issued hereunder by or on behalf of the Borrower through an account or branch outside the United Kingdom or by or on behalf of the Borrower by a payor that is not a United Kingdom person, if the Borrower determines that no Indemnifiable Taxes are payable in respect thereof, the Borrower shall furnish, or shall cause such payor to furnish, to the Administrative Agent, at such address, an opinion of counsel acceptable to the Administrative Agent stating that such payment is exempt from Indemnifiable Taxes.

     (e) Each Lender organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States, on or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement in the case of each Initial Lender and on the date of the Assumption Agreement or the Assignment and Assumption pursuant to which it becomes a Lender in the case of each other Lender, and from time to time thereafter as requested in writing by the Borrower shall provide each of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower with (i) two original Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI, as appropriate, or any successor or other from prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, certifying that such Lender is exempt from United States withholding tax and (ii) to the extent that any such form or other certification becomes obsolete with respect to any Lender, such Lender shall, upon the written request of the Borrower to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, promptly provide either an updated or successor form or certification to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent unless, in each case, any change in treaty, law or regulation has occurred after the date such Lender becomes a party hereunder which renders all such forms inapplicable or which would prevent such Lender from duly completing and delivering any such form with respect to it and such Lender so advises the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

     (f) Each Lender shall (i) as soon as reasonably practicable following the date it becomes a party hereto, submit to its Relevant Taxing Authority a validly completed Treaty Form (or successor Treaty Form thereto) claiming exemption from United Kingdom withholding Tax on interest, or (ii) (A) on or before the date it becomes a party hereto, furnish to the Borrower, with a copy to the Administrative Agent, a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit I (a “U.K. Tax Compliance Certificate”) certifying that such Lender (1) is a Bank within the meaning of Section 840A of the Income and Corporation Taxes Act of 1988 of the United Kingdom and (2) is within the charge to corporation tax in the United Kingdom with respect to payment hereunder and (B) agree, upon reasonable request by the Borrower, to provide to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, such other forms as may be required by law in order to establish the legal entitlement of such Lender to an exemption from United Kingdom withholding Tax with respect to payments under this

Agreement and the Notes issued hereunder, unless, in each case, any change in treaty, law or regulation has occurred after the date such Lender becomes a party hereunder which renders any such forms inapplicable or which would prevent such Lender from duly completing and delivering any such form with respect to it and such Lender so advises the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

     (g) For any period with respect to which a Lender has failed to provide the Borrower with the appropriate form described in Section 2.14(e) or (f) (other than if the Borrower has failed to timely request with reasonable notice any appropriate renewal, successor or other form or if any such form otherwise is not required under subsection (e) or (f)), such Lender shall not be entitled to indemnification under Section 2.14(a) or (c) with respect to Indemnifiable Taxes imposed by the United Kingdom or the United States by reason of such failure; provided, however, that should a Lender become subject to Indemnifiable Taxes or United Kingdom withholding Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form required hereunder, the Borrower shall take such steps as such Lender shall reasonably request to assist such Lender to recover such Indemnifiable Taxes or United Kingdom withholding Taxes.

     (h) If a condition or an event occurs which would, or would upon the passage of time or giving notice, result in the payment of any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.14, each Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to change the jurisdiction of its Applicable Lending Office if the making of such a change would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, any such additional amounts that may thereafter accrue and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

     (i) If the Administrative Agent or any Lender, in its sole opinion, determines that it has finally and irrevocably received or been granted a refund in respect of any Indemnifiable Taxes or Other Taxes as to which indemnification has been paid by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.14(a) or (c), it shall promptly remit such refund to the Borrower, net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender; provided, however, that the Borrower upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees promptly to return such refund to such party in the event such party is required to repay such refund to the relevant taxing authority. The Administrative Agent or such Lender shall provide the Borrower with a copy of any notice or assessment from the relevant taxing authority (deleting any confidential information contained therein) requiring the repayment of such refund. Nothing contained herein shall impose an obligation on the Administrative Agent or any Lender to apply for any refund or to disclose to any party any information regarding their proprietary information regarding tax affairs and computations. If the Borrower determines in good faith that a reasonable basis exists for contesting any Taxes for which indemnification has been demanded hereunder, the relevant Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to the extent permitted by law, rule or regulation, shall reasonably cooperate with the Borrower in challenging such Taxes at the Borrower’s expense if so requested by the Borrower in writing.

     (j) If a Lender changes its Applicable Lending Office (other than pursuant to subsection (h) above or Section 2.11 or 2.12) and the effect of such change, as of the date of such change, would be to cause the Borrower to become obligated to pay any additional amounts under this Section 2.14, the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay such additional amount.

     (k) A certificate of a Lender setting forth such amount or amounts as shall be necessary to compensate such Lender specified in Section 2.14(a), (b), or (c) above, as the case may be, and identifying with reasonable specificity the basis for calculation of such amount or amounts, shall be delivered to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

     (l) The obligations of a Lender under this Section 2.14 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Advances and all amounts payable hereunder.

     Section 2.15 Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Lender shall obtain any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise) on account of the Advances owing to it (other than pursuant to Section 2.11, 2.14 or 8.04(c)) in excess of its ratable share of payments on account of the Advances obtained by all the Lenders, such Lender shall forthwith purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Advances owing to them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment ratably with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, such purchase from each Lender shall be rescinded and such Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price to the extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to such Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Lender’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered. The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section 2.15 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all of its rights of payment (including the right of setoff) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

     Section 2.16 Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Advances shall be available (and the Borrower agrees that it shall use such proceeds) solely (i) to refinance Existing Debt, (ii) to provide liquidity support for commercial paper issued by the Borrower and (iii) for working capital and other general corporate purposes (including acquisitions) of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and (following use of such proceeds by the Borrower to pay a dividend to the Parent or to make an intercompany loan to the Parent) the Parent and its Subsidiaries.

     Section 5.01 Affirmative Covenants. So long as any Advance shall remain unpaid or any Lender shall have any Commitment hereunder, each of the Parent and the Borrower will:

     (a) Compliance with Laws, Etc. Comply, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to comply, in all material respects, with all applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders, such compliance to include (to the extent applicable), without limitation, compliance with the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended, ERISA and environmental laws, except where the failure to do so would not, and would not be reasonably expected to, have a Material Adverse Effect.

ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

     Section 7.01 Appointment and Authority. Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints Bank of America to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents 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 hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and neither the Borrower, the Parent nor any other Loan Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions.

     Section 7.02 Rights as a Lender. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person 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 Parent, the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

     Section 7.03 Exculpatory Provisions. The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent:

     (a) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;

     (b) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents), provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law; and

     (c) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Parent, the Borrower or any of its respective Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the 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 (i) 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 shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 8.01 and 8.02) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct, provided, such limitation of liability of the Administrative Agent shall not prohibit or limit any cause of action the Borrower may otherwise have against any Lender. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower or a Lender.

     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 this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article III or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

     Section 7.04 Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) reasonably 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 reasonably believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Parent or the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in good faith in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

     Section 7.05 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of 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 and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or 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.

     Section 7.06 Resignation of Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any

such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such 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, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (1) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (2) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this Section; provided, such Lenders so acting directly shall be and be deemed to be protected by all indemnities and other provisions herein for the benefit and protection of the Administrative Agent as if each such Lender were itself the Administrative Agent. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 8.04 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 the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.

     Any resignation by Bank of America as Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section shall also constitute its resignation as Swing Line Lender. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Swing Line Lender and (b) the Swing Line Lender shall be discharged from all of its respective duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents.

     Section 7.07 Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties 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 also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties 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.

     Section 7.08 No Other Duties, Etc. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the Arrangers listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent or a Lender.

     Section 7.09 Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise

     (a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Advances and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel, and all other amounts, due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under Section 8.04) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

     (b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.04 and 8.04.

     Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting any amount owing by a Loan Party to a Lender or the Administrative Agent or the rights of any Lender or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.

     Section 7.10 Guaranty Matters. The Lenders irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under the Subsidiary Guaranty if such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary of the Borrower or a Subsidiary of the Parent as a result of a transaction permitted hereunder.

     Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Lenders shall promptly confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Subsidiary Guaranty pursuant to this Section 7.10.

The obligations of the Lenders under this subsection (d) are subject to the provisions of Section 2.02(e).

     (e) Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, no Loan Party shall assert, and each hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnified Party, 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, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Advance or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnified Party referred to in subsection (b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby except as a result of such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence of willful misconduct.

     (f) Survival. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrower hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Borrower contained in this Section and Sections 2.11 and 2.14 herein shall survive the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the replacement of any Lender, the termination of the Total Commitment and the repayment,

satisfaction or discharge of all the other obligations of the Borrower and any other Loan Party in connection with any Loan Document.

     Section 8.05 Right of Set-off. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender or such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any and all of the obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement and the Note held by such Lender, whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or such Note and although such obligations may be unmatured. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower after any such set-off and application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of each Lender and its Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off) that such Lender and its Affiliates may have.

     Section 8.06 Successors and Assigns.

     (a) Successors and Assigns Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that no Loan Party may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender (except by operation of law or to the extent permitted hereunder) and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an Eligible Assignee in accordance with the provisions of subsection (b) of this Section, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of subsection (d) of this Section, and (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of subsection (f) of this Section (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in subsection (d) of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

     (b) Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Advances (including for purposes of this subsection (b), participations in Swing Line Loans) at the time owing to it); provided that

     (i) except in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and the Advances at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to a Lender, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Advances outstanding thereunder) or, if the Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Advances of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect

to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date, shall not be less than $10,000,000 and increments of $1,000,000 in excess thereof unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided, however, that concurrent assignments to members of an Assignee Group and concurrent assignments from members of an Assignee Group to a single Eligible Assignee (or to an Eligible Assignee and members of its Assignee Group) will be treated as a single assignment for purposes of determining whether such minimum amount has been met;

     (ii) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Advances or the Commitment assigned, except that this clause (ii) shall not apply to rights of the Swing Line Lender in respect of Swing Line Loans;

     (iii) any assignment of a Commitment must be approved by the Administrative Agent and the Swing Line Lender unless the Person that is the proposed assignee is itself a Lender, provided that the approval of the Administrative Agent shall not be required in the case of an assignment of a Commitment to an Affiliate of a Lender (in either case, whether or not the proposed assignee would otherwise qualify as an Eligible Assignee), and provided further that such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; and

     (iv) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee in the amount, if any, required as set forth in Schedule 8.06, and the Eligible Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an administrative questionnaire, and the Administrative Agent shall further deliver such administrative questionnaire to the Borrower.

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement with respect to the interest assigned and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement in addition to any rights and obligations it may theretofore have as a Lender, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the 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 2.11, 2.14, and 8.04 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. Upon request, the Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with subsection (d) of this Section.

     (c) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s office 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 Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Advances owing to each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent 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, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and the Lenders at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

     (d) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person or the Parent, the Borrower or any of the Parent’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Advances (including such Lender’s participations in Swing Line Loans) owing to it); provided 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 and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.

     Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso to Section 8.01 that affects such Participant. Subject to subsection (e) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.11, 2.14 and 8.04 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 8.05 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.15 as though it were a Lender.

     (e) Limitation upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.11 or 2.14 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.14 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 2.14 as though it were a Lender.

     (f) Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Note(s), if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender

from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

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

     (h) Resignation as Swing Line Lender after Assignment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time Bank of America assigns all of its Commitment and Advances pursuant to subsection (b) above, Bank of America may, upon 30 days’ notice to the Borrower and the Lenders, resign as Swing Line Lender. In the event of any such resignation, the Borrower shall be entitled to appoint from among the Lenders a successor Swing Line Lender hereunder; provided, however, that no failure by the Borrower to appoint any such successor shall affect the resignation of Bank of America as Swing Line Lender. If Bank of America resigns as Swing Line Lender, it shall retain all the rights of the Swing Line Lender provided for hereunder with respect to Swing Line Loans made by it and outstanding as of the effective date of such resignation, including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Advances or fund risk participations in outstanding Swing Line Loans pursuant to Section 2.03(c). Upon the appointment of a successor and acceptance of such appointment by the Swing Line Lender, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Swing Line Lender, as the case may be.

     Section 8.07 Treatment of Certain Information; Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and representatives (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower and its obligations, (g) with the consent of the Parent or the Borrower or (h) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section actually known to or caused by the disclosing party or (y) becomes available to the

Administrative Agent, any Lender, or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Parent or the Borrower.

     For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Parent, the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Parent relating to the Parent, the Borrower or any such Subsidiary or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Parent, the Borrower or any such Subsidiary, provided that, in the case of information received from the Parent, the Borrower or any such Subsidiary after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

     Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders acknowledges that (a) the Information may include material non-public information concerning the Parent, the Borrower or a Subsidiary of either thereof, as the case may be, (b) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information and (c) it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with applicable law, including Federal and state securities laws with respect to Lenders subject to such laws and only to the extent such laws are applicable to such Lender.

     Section 8.08 Governing Law. This Agreement and the Notes shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

     Section 8.09 Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by telecopier shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

     Section 8.10 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the Administrative Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of any Borrowing or any Advance, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Advance or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied.

     Section 8.11 Replacement of Lenders. (i) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.11, (ii) if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any governmental authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.14, (iii) if any Lender is, or within 15 Business Days of such assignment or delegation was, a Defaulting

Lender, (iv) if any Lender is unable to make Eurocurrency Rate Advances pursuant to Section 2.12, or (v) if any Lender shall fail to provide any consent, or consent to any waiver or amendment, agreed to by the Required Lenders then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 8.06), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that:

     (a) the Borrower shall have paid (or cause to be paid) to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 8.06(b);

     (b) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Advances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 8.04(c) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);

     (c) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.11 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.14, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter;

     (d) such assignment does not conflict with applicable Laws;

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

     (f) such parties to the assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption and the assignee shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an administrative questionnaire.

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

     Section 8.12 Jurisdiction, Etc.

     (a) Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court or federal court of the United States of America sitting in New York City, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Notes, 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 any such New York State court or, to the extent permitted by law, in such federal court. The Parent and the Borrower each hereby agree that service of process in any such action or proceeding brought in any such New York State court or in such federal court may be made upon the Parent or the Borrower c/o IVZ Inc. at its offices at 1315 Peachtree Street N.E., Suite 500, Atlanta, Georgia 30309, Attention: General Counsel (the “Process Agent”), and hereby further agrees that the failure of the Process Agent to give any

notice of any such service to the Parent or the Borrower, as applicable, shall not impair or affect the validity of such service or of any judgment rendered in any action or proceeding based thereon. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that any party may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the Notes in the courts of any jurisdiction.

     (b) Each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Notes in any New York State or federal court. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

     (c) To the extent that either the Parent or the Borrower has or hereafter may acquire any immunity from the jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process (whether through service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution, execution or otherwise) with respect to itself or its property, each of the Parent and the Borrower hereby irrevocably waives such immunity in respect of its obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

     Section 8.13 Judgment.

     (a) Rate of Exchange. If, for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or under the Notes in another currency into Dollars, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which, in accordance with normal banking procedures, the Administrative Agent could purchase such other currency with Dollars in New York City, New York, at the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the day on which final judgment is given, together with any premiums and costs of exchange payable in connection with such purchase.

     (b) Indemnity. The obligation of the Borrower in respect of any sum due from it to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder or under any Note shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency other than Dollars, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day next succeeding receipt by the Administrative Agent or such Lender of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency, the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, may, in accordance with normal banking procedures, purchase Dollars with such other currency. If the Dollars so purchased are less than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in Dollars, the Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Administrative Agent or such Lender against such loss, and if the Dollars so purchased exceed the sum originally due to any the Administrative Agent or any Lender in Dollars, the Administrative Agent or such Lender agrees to remit to the Borrower such excess.

     Section 8.14 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

     Section 8.15 USA PATRIOT Act Notice. Each Lender that is subject to the Act (as hereinafter defined) and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Borrower and the Parent that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrower in accordance with the Act.

     Section 8.16 Consent to Reorganization. The Lenders and the Administrative Agent hereby consent to the Reorganization.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be executed by their respective officers thereunto duly authorized, as of the date first above written.
