(d)    The Credit Agreement is further amended by deleting Section 2.2.(f) in its entirety.

(e)    The Credit Agreement is further amended by restating Section 2.3. thereof in its entirety to read as follows:

(a)    Letters of Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including without limitation, Section 2.15., the Issuing Banks, on behalf of the Lenders, agree to issue for the account of the Borrower (or the Borrower and any other Loan Party) during the period from and including the Second Amendment Effective Date to, but excluding, the date 30 days prior to the Termination Date, one or more standby letters of credit (each a “Letter of Credit”) up to a maximum aggregate Stated Amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed the L/C Commitment Amount; provided, however, that no Issuing Bank shall be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to such issuance, the aggregate face amount of Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank would exceed (i) 50.0% of the L/C Commitment Amount or (ii) such Issuing Bank’s Issuing Bank Commitment. The parties hereto agree that the Existing Letters of Credit shall be deemed to be Letters of Credit hereunder. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, an Issuing Bank shall have no obligation hereunder to issue, and shall not issue, any Letter of Credit the proceeds of which, to the knowledge of such Issuing Bank, would be made available to any Person (x) to fund any activity or business of or with any Sanctioned Person, or in any country or territory that, at the time of such funding, is the subject of any Sanctions or (y) in any manner that would result in a violation of any Sanctions by any party to this Agreement.

(b)    Terms of Letters of Credit. At the time of issuance, the amount, form, terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit, and of any drafts or acceptances thereunder, shall be subject to approval by the relevant Issuing Bank and the Borrower. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event may (i) the expiration date of any Letter of Credit extend beyond the date that is 5 days prior to the Termination Date, or (ii) any Letter of Credit have an initial duration in excess of one year; provided, however, a Letter of Credit may contain a provision providing for the automatic extension of the expiration date in the absence of a notice of non-renewal from the relevant Issuing Bank but in no event shall any such provision permit the extension of the expiration date of such Letter of Credit beyond the date that is 5 days prior to the Termination Date; provided, further, that a Letter of Credit may, as a result of its express terms or as the result of the effect of an automatic extension provision, have an expiration date of not more than one year beyond the Termination Date so long as the Borrower delivers to the

Administrative Agent for the benefit of the relevant Issuing Bank and the Lenders no later than 30 days prior to the Termination Date cash collateral for such Letter of Credit for deposit into the Letter of Credit Collateral Account in an amount equal to the Stated Amount of such Letter of Credit.

(c)    Requests for Issuance of Letters of Credit. The Borrower shall give an Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) at least 5 Business Days prior to the requested date of issuance of a Letter of Credit, such notice to describe in reasonable detail the proposed terms of such Letter of Credit and the nature of the transactions or obligations proposed to be supported by such Letter of Credit, and in any event shall set forth with respect to such Letter of Credit the proposed (i) initial Stated Amount, (ii) beneficiary, and (iii) expiration date. The Borrower shall also execute and deliver such customary applications and agreements for standby letters of credit, and other forms as requested from time to time by the relevant Issuing Bank. Provided the Borrower has given the notice prescribed by the first sentence of this subsection and delivered such application and agreements referred to in the preceding sentence, subject to the other terms and conditions of this Agreement, including the satisfaction of any applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article V., the relevant Issuing Bank shall issue the requested Letter of Credit on the requested date of issuance for the benefit of the stipulated beneficiary but in no event prior to the date 5 Business Days following the date after which such Issuing Bank has received all of the items required to be delivered to it under this subsection. Upon the written request of the Borrower, the relevant Issuing Bank shall deliver to the Borrower a copy of (i) any Letter of Credit proposed to be issued by it hereunder prior to the issuance thereof and (ii) each issued Letter of Credit issued by it within a reasonable time after the date of issuance thereof. To the extent any term of a Letter of Credit Document is inconsistent with a term of any Loan Document, the term of such Loan Document shall control.

(d)    Reimbursement Obligations. Upon receipt by an Issuing Bank from the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit of any demand for payment under such Letter of Credit, such Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of the amount to be paid by such Issuing Bank as a result of such demand and the date on which payment is to be made by such Issuing Bank to such beneficiary in respect of such demand; provided, however, that an Issuing Bank’s failure to give, or delay in giving, such notice shall not discharge the Borrower in any respect from the applicable Reimbursement Obligation. The Borrower hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably agrees to pay and reimburse each Issuing Bank for the amount of each demand for payment under each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank on or prior to the date on which payment is to be made by such Issuing Bank to the beneficiary thereunder, without presentment, demand, protest or other formalities of any kind (other than notice as provided in this subsection). Upon receipt by an Issuing Bank of any payment in respect of any Reimbursement Obligation, such Issuing Bank shall promptly pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender that has acquired a participation therein under the second sentence of Section 2.3.(i) such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such payment.

(e)    Manner of Reimbursement. Upon its receipt of a notice referred to in the immediately preceding subsection (d), the Borrower shall advise the Administrative Agent and the relevant Issuing Bank whether or not the Borrower intends to borrow

hereunder to finance its obligation to reimburse such Issuing Bank for the amount of the related demand for payment and, if it does, the Borrower shall submit a timely request for such borrowing as provided in the applicable provisions of this Agreement. If the Borrower fails to so advise the Administrative Agent and the relevant Issuing Bank, or if the Borrower has failed to reimburse the relevant Issuing Bank for a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit by the date of such payment, after which the relevant Issuing Bank has notified the Administrative Agent, then (i) if the applicable conditions contained in Article V. would permit the making of Revolving Loans, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a borrowing of Revolving Loans (which shall be Base Rate Loans) in an amount equal to the unpaid Reimbursement Obligation and the Administrative Agent shall give each Lender prompt notice of the amount of the Revolving Loan to be made available to the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m., and (ii) if such conditions would not permit the making of Revolving Loans, the provisions of subsection (j) of this Section shall apply. The minimum amount limitations of Section 3.5.(a) shall not apply to any borrowing of Base Rate Loans under this subsection.

(f)    Effect of Letters of Credit on Commitments. Upon the issuance by an Issuing Bank of a Letter of Credit and until such Letter of Credit shall have expired or been cancelled, the Commitment of each Lender shall be deemed to be utilized for all purposes of this Agreement in an amount equal to the product of (i) such Lender’s Commitment Percentage and (ii) the sum of (A) the Stated Amount of such Letter of Credit plus (B) any related Reimbursement Obligations then outstanding.

(g)    Issuing Banks’ Duties Regarding Letters of Credit; Unconditional Nature of Reimbursement Obligations. In examining documents presented in connection with drawings under Letters of Credit and making payments under Letters of Credit issued by an Issuing Bank against such documents, such Issuing Bank shall only be required to use the same standard of care as it uses in connection with examining documents presented in connection with drawings under letters of credit in which it has not sold participations and making payments under such letters of credit. The Borrower assumes all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of the Letters of Credit by, the respective beneficiaries of such Letters of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, none of the Issuing Banks, the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders shall be responsible for, and the Borrower’s obligations in respect of the Letters of Credit shall not be affected in any manner by (i) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effects of any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for and issuance of or any drawing honored under any Letter of Credit even if such document should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged; (ii) the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any Letter of Credit, or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii) failure of the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit to comply fully with conditions required in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit; (iv) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, facsimile, electronic mail, telecopy or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (v) errors in interpretation of technical terms; (vi) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under any Letter of Credit, or of the proceeds thereof; (vii) the misapplication by the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit, or of the proceeds of any drawing under any

Letter of Credit; or (viii) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Banks, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders. None of the above shall affect, impair or prevent the vesting of any of the Issuing Banks’, Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s rights or powers hereunder. Any action taken or omitted to be taken by an Issuing Bank under or in connection with any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, if taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment), shall not create against such Issuing Bank any liability to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any Lender. In this connection, the obligation of the Borrower to reimburse an Issuing Bank for any drawing made under any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or any other applicable Letter of Credit Document under all circumstances whatsoever, including without limitation, the following circumstances: (A) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit Document or any term or provisions therein; (B) any amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any of the Letter of Credit Documents; (C) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right which the Borrower may have at any time against such Issuing Bank, any other Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or in the Letter of Credit Documents or any unrelated transaction; (D) any breach of contract or dispute between the Borrower, such Issuing Bank, any other Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other Person; (E) any demand, statement or any other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein or made in connection therewith being untrue or inaccurate in any respect whatsoever; (F) any non‑application or misapplication by the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit; (G) payment by such Issuing Bank under the Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate which does not strictly comply with the terms of the applicable Letter of Credit; and (H) any other act, omission to act, delay or circumstance whatsoever that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable defense to or discharge of the Borrower’s Reimbursement Obligations.

(h)    Amendments, Etc. The issuance by an Issuing Bank of any amendment, supplement or other modification to any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank shall be subject to the same conditions applicable under this Agreement to the issuance of new Letters of Credit (including, without limitation, that the request therefor be made through the relevant Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent), and no such amendment, supplement or other modification shall be issued unless either (i) the respective Letter of Credit affected thereby would have complied with such conditions had it originally been issued hereunder in such amended, supplemented or modified form or (ii) the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, if any, required by Section 12.7. shall have consented thereto. In connection with any such amendment, supplement or other modification, the Borrower shall pay the Fees, if any, payable under the last sentence of Section 3.6.(c).

(i)    Lenders’ Participation in Letters of Credit. Immediately upon the issuance by an Issuing Bank of any Letter of Credit each Lender shall be deemed to have absolutely, irrevocably and unconditionally purchased and received from such Issuing Bank, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation to the extent

of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the liability of such Issuing Bank with respect to such Letter of Credit and each Lender thereby shall absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably assume, as primary obligor and not as surety, and shall be unconditionally obligated to such Issuing Bank to pay and discharge when due, such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such Issuing Bank’s liability under such Letter of Credit, whether before the Termination Date or after. In addition, upon the making of each payment by a Lender to the Administrative Agent for the account of an Issuing Bank in respect of any Letter of Credit issued by it pursuant to the immediately following subsection (j), such Lender shall, automatically and without any further action on the part of such Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent or such Lender, acquire (i) a participation in an amount equal to such payment in the Reimbursement Obligation owing to such Issuing Bank by the Borrower in respect of such Letter of Credit and (ii) a participation in a percentage equal to such Lender’s Commitment Percentage in any interest or other amounts payable by the Borrower in respect of such Reimbursement Obligation (other than the Fees payable to such Issuing Bank pursuant to the second and the last sentences of Section 3.6.(c)).

(j)    Payment Obligation of Lenders. Each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Issuing Bank, on demand in immediately available funds in Dollars the amount of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of each drawing paid by such Issuing Bank under each Letter of Credit issued by it to the extent such amount is not reimbursed by the Borrower pursuant to the immediately preceding subsection (d); provided, however, that in respect of any drawing under any Letter of Credit, the maximum amount that any Lender shall be required to fund, whether as a Revolving Loan or as a participation, shall not exceed such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such drawing except as otherwise provided in Section 3.10(d). Each Lender’s obligation to make such payments to the Administrative Agent under this subsection, and the Administrative Agent’s right to receive the same for the account of the relevant Issuing Bank, shall be absolute, irrevocable and unconditional and shall not be affected in any way by any circumstance whatsoever, including without limitation, (i) the failure of any other Lender to make its payment under this subsection, (ii) the financial condition of the Borrower or any other Loan Party, (iii) the existence of any Default or Event of Default, including any Event of Default described in Section 10.1.(f) or (g) or (iv) the termination of the Commitments. Each such payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant Issuing Bank shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or deduction whatsoever.

(k)    Information to Lenders. Promptly following any change in Letters of Credit outstanding, the relevant Issuing Bank shall deliver to the Administrative Agent who shall provide the same to each Lender and the Borrower a notice describing the aggregate amount of all Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank outstanding at such time. Upon the request of the Administrative Agent from time to time, an Issuing Bank shall deliver any other information reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent with respect to such Letter of Credit that is the subject of the request. Other than as set forth in this subsection, the Issuing Banks and the Administrative Agent shall have no duty to notify the Lenders regarding the issuance or other matters regarding Letters of Credit issued hereunder. The failure of any Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent to perform its requirements under this subsection shall not relieve any Lender from its obligations under Section 2.3.(j).

(l)    Addition of an Issuing Bank. A Lender may become an additional Issuing Bank hereunder pursuant to a written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and such Lender and such agreement shall specify such additional Issuing Bank’s Issuing Bank Commitment. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such additional Issuing Bank.

(f)    The Credit Agreement is further amended by restating Section 2.14. thereof in its entirety to read as follows:

The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time during the period beginning on the Effective Date through and including the date 180 days prior to the Termination Date to request increases in the aggregate amount of the Commitments (provided that after giving effect to any increases in the Commitments pursuant to this Section, the aggregate amount of the Commitments shall not exceed $1,000,000,000) by providing written notice to the Administrative Agent, which notice shall be irrevocable once given. Each such increase in the Commitments must be an aggregate minimum amount of $50,000,000 and integral multiples of $15,000,000 in excess thereof. The Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Borrower, shall manage all aspects of the syndication of such increase in the Commitments, including decisions as to the selection of the existing Lenders and/or other banks, financial institutions and other institutional lenders to be approached with respect to such increase and the allocations of the increase in the Commitments among such existing Lenders and/or other banks, financial institutions and other institutional lenders. No Lender shall be obligated in any way whatsoever to increase its Commitment, and any new Lender becoming a party to this Agreement in connection with any such requested increase must be an Eligible Assignee.

This Amendment has been duly executed and delivered by a duly authorized officer of the Borrower and each of this Amendment and the Credit Agreement, as amended by this Amendment, is a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with its respective terms except as the same may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, and other similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally and the availability of equitable remedies for the enforcement of certain obligations contained herein or therein and as may be limited by equitable principles generally.

(b)    Compliance with Laws, etc. The execution and delivery by the Borrower of this Amendment and the performance by the Borrower of this Amendment and the Credit Agreement, as amended by this Amendment, in accordance with their respective terms, do not and will not, by the passage of time, the giving of notice or otherwise: (i) require any Governmental Approval or violate any Applicable Law (including Environmental Laws) relating to the Borrower or any other Loan Party; (ii) conflict with, result in a breach of or constitute a default under (1) the organizational documents of the Borrower or any other Loan Party, or (2) any indenture, agreement or other instrument to which the Borrower or any other Loan Party is a party or by which it or any of its respective properties may be bound, the violation of which indenture, agreement or other instrument could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; or (iii) result in or require the creation or imposition of any Lien upon or with respect to any property now owned or hereafter acquired by the Borrower or any other Loan Party, other than in favor of the Administrative Agent for its benefit and the benefit of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks.

To effect such allocations, each Lender whose Post-Amendment Commitment Percentage exceeds the amount of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage immediately prior to the effectiveness of this Amendment and any Lender providing a new Commitment shall make a Revolving Loan in such amount as is necessary so that the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans held by such Lender shall equal such Lender’s Post-Amendment Commitment Percentage of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans as of the Amendment Effective Date.

The parties hereto confirm that the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans immediately prior to the Amendment Effective Date is equal to the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans immediately after giving effect to the Amendment. Except for any Revolving Notes to be provided to the Lenders in the principal amount of their respective Commitments, no other documents, instruments or fees (other than fees set forth in Section 2(e) above) shall be, or shall be required to be, executed or paid in connection with such allocations (all of which are hereby waived, as necessary).

Each of Citibank, N.A. and Morgan Stanley Bank, N.A., as new Lenders under the Credit Agreement on the Amendment Effective Date (each a “New Lender”), hereby agrees to provide a new Commitment in the amount set forth for such New Lender on Schedule I attached hereto. On the Amendment Effective Date, each New Lender agrees to become and shall be deemed a Lender for all purposes of the Credit Agreement, and each reference to the Lenders in the Credit Agreement shall be deemed to include the New Lenders. Each New Lender hereby appoints Wells Fargo Bank, National Association as the Administrative Agent and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action on its behalf and to exercise such powers under the Credit Agreement and other Loan Documents as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms thereof.

On the Amendment Effective Date, the Commitment of Citicorp North America, Inc. (the “Exiting Lender”) shall be terminated, all outstanding amounts due under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents to the Exiting Lender on the Amendment Effective Date shall be paid in full, and the Exiting Lender shall cease to be a Lender under the Credit Agreement.

The Administrative Agent, the Borrower and each Lender confirms the amount of each such Lender’s Commitment is as set forth on Schedule I attached hereto.

Section 7. Certain References. Each reference to the Credit Agreement in any of the Loan Documents shall be deemed to be a reference to the Credit Agreement as amended by this Amendment.

Section 8. Expenses. The Borrower shall reimburse the Administrative Agent upon demand for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by the

Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, negotiation and execution of this Amendment and the other agreements and documents executed and delivered in connection herewith.

Section 9. Benefits. This Amendment shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

Section 10. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AMENDMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS EXECUTED, AND TO BE FULLY PERFORMED, IN SUCH STATE.

Section 11. Effect. Except as expressly herein amended, the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents remain in full force and effect. The amendments contained herein shall be deemed to have prospective application only from the date as of which this Amendment is dated, unless otherwise specifically stated herein. The execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Amendment shall not, except as expressly provided herein, operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of any Lender or the Administrative Agent under any of the Loan Documents, nor constitute a waiver of any provision of any of the Loan Documents. On and after the effectiveness of this Amendment, this Amendment shall for all purposes constitute a Loan Document.

Section 12. Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original and shall be binding upon all parties, their successors and assigns.

Section 13. Definitions. All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein are used herein with the respective definitions given them in the Credit Agreement.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Second Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement to be executed as of the date first above written.
