SECTION 2.02. Requests for Loans. To request a Borrowing, a Borrower shall deliver, by hand delivery or telecopier, a duly completed and executed Borrowing Request to the Administrative Agent, who shall promptly thereafter notify the Lenders, of such request (a) in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the date of the proposed Borrowing or (b) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the date of the proposed Borrowing.

SECTION 2.03. Funding of Borrowings.

The Administrative Agent shall make such Loans available to the requesting Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received from the Lenders, in like funds, to an account of such Borrower designated by such Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request; provided that, if a Borrowing shall not occur on such date -21- because any condition precedent herein specified shall not have been met, the Administrative Agent shall return the amounts so received from the Lenders to the respective Lenders. (b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender shall not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender's share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the requesting Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the Borrowers, jointly and severally, and the applicable Lender severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the requesting Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of the Borrowers, the interest rate applicable to ABR Borrowings.

A Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. (b) To make an election pursuant to this Section, a Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by telephone by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.02 if such Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request in the form of Exhibit E or such other form approved by the Administrative Agent, in each case signed by such Borrower. (c) Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02: (i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be -22- specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing); (ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day; (iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing; and (iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term "Interest Period". If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Borrower making such Interest Election Request shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month's duration. (d) Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender's portion of each resulting Borrowing. (e) If a Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurodollar Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Administrative Agent may, or at the request of the Required Lenders shall, notify WIL that, so long as an Event of Default is continuing, (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each Eurodollar Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto. SECTION 2.05. Optional Termination and Reduction of Commitments. (a) WIL may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Commitments; provided that (i) each reduction of the Commitments shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000 and (ii) WIL shall not terminate or reduce the Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.07, the Revolving Credit Exposures would exceed the total Commitments. (b) WIL shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by WIL pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Commitments delivered by WIL may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by WIL (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the -23- specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Commitments shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments. SECTION 2.06. Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. (a) The Borrowers hereby jointly and severally and unconditionally promise to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Loan on the Maturity Date. (b) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrowers to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder. (c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Type thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from each Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender's share thereof. (d) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrowers, jointly and severally, to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. (e) Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note (all of such notes being hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Notes"). In such event, the Borrowers shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable, jointly and severally, to the order of such Lender and in the form of Exhibit B. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 11.06) be represented by one or more Notes in such form payable to the order of the payee named therein. SECTION 2.07. Optional Prepayment of Loans. (a) The Borrowers shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part, subject to prior notice in accordance with paragraph (b) of this Section. (b) A Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent by telephone (promptly confirmed by telecopy) of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the date of prepayment, or (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, one Business Day before the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount -24- of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid; provided that, if a notice of prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.05, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.05. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02. Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.10. All prepayments under this Section 2.07 shall be subject to Section 2.13. SECTION 2.08. Mandatory Termination and Reduction of Commitments; Mandatory Prepayment of Loans. (a) Unless previously terminated, the Commitments shall terminate on the Maturity Date. (b) On the date that a Change of Control of the type described in clause (a)(iii) of the definition of such term occurs and on the date that is 15 days after the occurrence of any other type of Change of Control, the Commitments shall terminate and the Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall prepay the principal amount of the Loans and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon in immediately available funds. (c) Within 30 days of receipt by an Obligor of the Net Cash Proceeds of any Capital Markets Takeout Financing, an amount equal to the lesser of (i) 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds and (ii) a portion of such Net Cash Proceeds equal to the aggregate amount of Loans then outstanding shall be applied to prepay the Loans then outstanding, and the Commitments shall be permanently reduced by an amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds. Each such reduction of the Commitments shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments. (d) If the New Revolving Credit Facility provides for commitments by the lenders party thereto greater than $500,000,000 in the aggregate, upon effectiveness of such New Revolving Credit Facility, the Commitments shall be permanently reduced by an amount equal to the difference between the aggregate amount of the commitments under such New Revolving Credit Facility and $500,000,000. Such reduction of the Commitments shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments. (e) If the Acquisition is not consummated on or prior to December 31, 2005, on January 1, 2006, the Commitments shall be permanently reduced by an amount equal to $600,000,000. Such reduction of the Commitments shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments. SECTION 2.09. Fees. (a) The Borrowers, jointly and severally, agree to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a facility fee (the "Facility Fee"), which shall accrue at the Facility Fee Rate on the daily amount of the Commitment of such Lender (whether used or -25- unused) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the date on which such Lender ceases to have any Revolving Credit Exposure. Accrued Facility Fees shall be payable in arrears on the last day of March, June, September and December of each year and on the date on which the Commitments terminate, commencing on the first such date to occur after the date hereof; provided that any Facility Fees accruing after the date on which the Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. All Facility Fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as applicable, and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). (b) The Borrowers, jointly and severally, agree to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between WIL and the Administrative Agent. (c) The Borrowers, jointly and severally, agree to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a utilization fee (the "Utilization Fee") which shall accrue (i) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the New Revolving Credit Facility Effective Date, at the Applicable Rate on the daily amount of the Revolving Credit Exposure of such Lender at all times when the amount of the total Revolving Credit Exposures exceeds $600,000,000 (provided that the Utilization Fee shall only accrue on that portion of the total Revolving Credit Exposure that exceeds $600,000,000) and (ii) from and after the New Revolving Credit Facility Effective Date, at the Applicable Rate on the daily amount of the Revolving Credit Exposure of such Lender at all times when the amount of the total Revolving Credit Exposures exceeds 50% of the total Commitments. Utilization Fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable in arrears on the last day of March, June, September and December of each year and the Maturity Date. (d) All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent for distribution, in the case of Facility Fees and Utilization Fees, to the Lenders. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances. SECTION 2.10. Interest. (a) The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate. (b) The Loans comprising each Eurodollar Borrowing shall bear interest at the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Margin. (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by the Borrowers hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2% plus the rate applicable to ABR Borrowings as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section. -26- (d) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and upon termination of the Commitments; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of an ABR Loan prior to the Termination Date), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Eurodollar Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion. (e) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Base Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable Alternate Base Rate, Adjusted LIBO Rate or LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be presumed correct absent manifest error. SECTION 2.11. Alternate Rate of Interest. If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing: (a) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be presumed correct absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period; or (b) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period shall not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period; then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to WIL and the Lenders by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies WIL and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (x) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any ABR Borrowing to, or continuation of any Eurodollar Borrowing as, a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be ineffective, and (y) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing. SECTION 2.12. Increased Costs. (a) If any Change in Law shall: (i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate); or (ii) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender; -27- and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as shall compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. (b) If any Lender determines that any Change in Law regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender's capital or on the capital of such Lender's holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by such Lender to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender's holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender's policies and the policies of such Lender's holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as shall compensate such Lender or such Lender's holding company for any such reduction suffered. (c) A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, along with (i) a calculation of such amount or amounts, (ii) a description of the specific Change in Law that justifies such amounts due, and (iii) such other pertinent information related to the foregoing as either Borrower may reasonably request, shall be delivered to such Borrower and shall be presumed correct absent manifest error. The Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall pay such Lender the correct amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof. (d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender's right to demand such compensation; provided that no Borrower shall be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 120 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrowers of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender's intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 120-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. SECTION 2.13. Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurodollar Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.07(b) and is revoked in accordance therewith), or (d) the assignment of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by a Borrower pursuant to Section 3.03, then, in any such event, the Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurodollar Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined -28- by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the eurodollar market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Borrowers and shall be presumed correct absent manifest error, and shall set forth a calculation of such amounts and such other information as either Borrower may reasonably request. The Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof. SECTION 2.14. Agreement to Defer Exercise of Right of Contribution, Etc. Notwithstanding any payment or payments made by a Borrower (a "Paying Borrower") hereunder, or any setoff or application by the Administrative Agent or any Lender of any security furnished by, or of any credits or claims against, such Paying Borrower, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such Paying Borrower will not assert or exercise any rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender or of its own, against the other Borrower to recover the amount of any such payment, setoff or application by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, whether by way of assertion of any claim, or exercise of any remedy or right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification, participation or otherwise, and whether arising by contract, by statute, under common law or otherwise, and, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such Paying Borrower shall not have any right to exercise any right of recourse to or any claim against assets or property of the other Borrower for such amounts, in each case unless and until all of the Obligations of the Borrowers have been fully and finally satisfied. If any amount shall be paid to a Paying Borrower by the other Borrower after payment in full of the Obligations, and the Obligations shall thereafter be reinstated in whole or in part and the Administrative Agent or any Lender forced to repay to either Borrower any sums received in payment of the Obligations, the obligations of each Borrower hereunder shall be automatically pro tanto reinstated and such amount shall be held in trust by the payee thereof for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and shall forthwith be paid to the Administrative Agent to be credited and applied to the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured. Article III PAYMENTS; PRO RATA TREATMENT; TAXES SECTION 3.01. Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs. (a) Each Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest or fees, or of amounts payable under Section 2.12, 2.13 or 3.02, or otherwise) prior to 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to -29- the Administrative Agent at its offices at 677 Washington Boulevard, Stamford, Connecticut, except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.12, 2.13, 3.02 and 11.04 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder shall be made in dollars. (b) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal then due to such parties. (c) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by a Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to a Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). Each Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such participation. (d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders hereunder that such Borrower shall not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders the amount due. In such event, if a Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at -30- the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. (e) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.03(b) or 3.01(d), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender's obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid. SECTION 3.02. Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrowers hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if either Borrower shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section), the Administrative Agent or Lender (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) such Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. (b) The Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, within 20 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of a Borrower hereunder (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrowers by a Lender, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be presumed correct absent manifest error. (c) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which a Borrower is located or treated as located for income Tax purposes, or any treaty to which any such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to such Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by such Borrower as shall permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate. (d) If the Administrative Agent or a Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes paid by a Borrower or with respect to which a Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.02, it shall pay over such refund to such Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Borrower under this Section 3.02 with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes -31- giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that each Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay promptly the amount paid over to such Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such amount) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This Section shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to either Borrower or any other Person. (e) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Foreign Lender shall deliver to each Borrower and the Administrative Agent on the Effective Date or upon the effectiveness of any Assignment and Assumption by which it becomes a party to this Agreement (i) two duly completed copies of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI, W 8BEN, W-8EXP or W-8IMY or other applicable governmental form, as the case may be, certifying in each case that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement and the Notes payable to it without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income Taxes, as if each Borrower were incorporated under the laws of the United States or a State thereof, and (ii) any other governmental forms which are necessary or required under an applicable Tax treaty or otherwise by law to eliminate any withholding Tax or which have been reasonably requested by the Borrowers. Each Lender which delivers to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent a Form W-8ECI, W-8BEN, W-8EXP or W-8IMY or other applicable governmental form pursuant to the preceding sentence further undertakes to deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent two further copies of such form on or before the date that any such form expires (currently, three successive calendar years for Form W-8BEN or Form W-8ECI) or becomes obsolete or after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form so delivered by it, and such amendments thereto or extensions or renewals thereof as may reasonably be requested by a Borrower and the Administrative Agent, in each case certifying that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income Taxes, unless an event (including any change in treaty, law or regulation) has occurred prior to the date on which any such delivery would otherwise be required which renders all such forms inapplicable or which would prevent such Lender from duly completing and delivering any such form with respect to it and such Lender advises the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent that it is not capable of receiving payments without any deduction or withholding of United States federal income Taxes and in any such event, each Borrower shall withhold Taxes at the rate and in the manner required by the laws of the United States with respect to payments made to such a Lender and shall be required to pay any additional amounts or indemnify such a Lender pursuant to this Section 3.02 with respect to such withheld Taxes. (f) The Borrowers, jointly and severally, will remit to the appropriate Governmental Authority, prior to delinquency, all Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes payable in respect of any payment. Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, the applicable Borrower will furnish to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment of such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes or such other evidence thereof as may be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. -32- SECTION 3.03. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. (a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.12, or if a Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.02, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.12 or 3.02, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrowers hereby, jointly and severally, agree to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. (b) If (i) any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.12, or (ii) a Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.02, or (iii) any Lender defaults in its obligation to fund Loans hereunder, or (iv) any Lender fails to provide its consent to a Redomestication under the laws of a jurisdiction (other than the United Kingdom or The Kingdom of the Netherlands) outside of the United States, then WIL 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 Section 11.06), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (x) if such assignee is not already a Lender hereunder, WIL shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, (y) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the applicable Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (z) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.12 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 3.02, such assignment shall result in a reduction in such compensation or payments.

SECTION 5.02. Authorization, Validity, Etc. Each Obligor has the corporate or other power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents to which it is a party and to obtain the Loans, and all such action has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate, partnership or other proceedings on its part or on its - 36 - behalf. This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by or on behalf of each Obligor and constitutes valid and legally binding agreements of such Obligor enforceable against such Obligor in accordance with the terms hereof, and the Notes and the other Loan Documents to which such Obligor is a party, when duly executed and delivered by or on behalf of such Obligor, shall constitute valid and legally binding obligations of such Obligor enforceable in accordance with the respective terms thereof and of this Agreement, except, in each case (a) as may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent transfer or other similar laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally, and by general principles of equity which may limit the right to obtain equitable remedies (regardless of whether such enforceability is a proceeding in equity or at law) and (b) as to the enforceability of provisions for indemnification and the limitations thereon arising as a matter of law or public policy. SECTION 5.03. Governmental Consents, Etc. No authorization, consent, approval, license or exemption of or filing or registration with any Governmental Authority, is necessary for the valid execution, delivery or performance by any Obligor of any Loan Document to which it is a party, except those that have been obtained and such matters relating to performance as would ordinarily be done in the ordinary course of business after the Effective Date.

SECTION 5.05. Title to Assets. Each Obligor and each consolidated Subsidiary of WIL has good and indefeasible title to its assets, except for such defects in title as would not in the aggregate have a Material Adverse Effect. As of the Effective Date, the property of the Obligors and their Subsidiaries is subject to no Liens, except Permitted Liens. SECTION 5.06. Information; Financial Statements. All information heretofore furnished by the Obligors to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with this Agreement, when considered together with the disclosures made herein, in the other Loan Documents and in the filings made by any Obligor with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Exchange Act, did not as of the date thereof and shall not as of the date of the initial Credit Event hereunder, when read together and taken as a whole, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein not misleading in any material respect. - 37 - SECTION 5.07. Investment Company Act. No Obligor nor any of its Subsidiaries is, or is regulated as, an "investment company," as such term is defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940 (as adopted in the United States), as amended. SECTION 5.08. Public Utility Holding Company Act. No Obligor nor any of its Subsidiaries is a non-exempt "holding company," or subject to regulation as such, or, to the knowledge of any Obligor's officers, an "affiliate" of a "holding company" or a "subsidiary company" of a "holding company," within the meaning of the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935 (as adopted in the United States), as amended. SECTION 5.09. ERISA. (a) Each Obligor and each ERISA Affiliate has maintained and administered each Plan in compliance with all applicable laws except for such instances of noncompliance as have not resulted in and would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Obligor nor any ERISA Affiliate has incurred any liability pursuant to Title I or IV of ERISA or the penalty or excise tax provisions of the Code relating to employee benefit plans (as defined in Section 3 of ERISA), and no event, transaction or condition has occurred or exists that would reasonably be expected to result in the incurrence of any such liability by any Obligor or any ERISA Affiliate, or in the imposition of any Lien on any of the rights, properties or assets of any Obligor or any ERISA Affiliate pursuant to Title I or IV of ERISA Sections 401(a)(29) or 412 of the Code, other than such liabilities or Liens as would not in the aggregate reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(c) No Obligor and its ERISA Affiliates have incurred withdrawal liabilities (and are not subject to contingent withdrawal liabilities) under Sections 4201 or 4204 of ERISA in respect of Multiemployer Plans that in the aggregate would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. (d) All contributions have been timely made to all employee benefit plans, as defined in Section 3 of ERISA, except for such failures as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. SECTION 5.10. Tax Returns and Payments.

No material income tax liability of any Obligor or any Material Subsidiary has been asserted by the Internal Revenue Service of the United States or any other Governmental Authority for any taxes in excess of those already paid, except for taxes which are - 38 - being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and for which adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP have been created on the books of the Obligors and their Subsidiaries. SECTION 5.11. Requirements of Law; Environmental Matters. (a) The Obligors and each of their consolidated Subsidiaries are in compliance with all Requirements of Law, applicable statutes, regulations and orders of, and all applicable restrictions imposed by, all Governmental Authorities in respect of the conduct of its business and the ownership of their property, except for such non-compliances which, in the aggregate, would not have a Material Adverse Effect. (b) WIL monitors, in the ordinary course of its business, the effect of existing Environmental Laws, and each claim asserted against it, the other Obligors, and any of their Subsidiaries by any Governmental Authority alleging potential liability or responsibility for violation of any Environmental Law, on its business operations and properties. As a result thereof, WIL have reasonably concluded that such Environmental Laws and any such claims would not, in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. SECTION 5.12. Purpose of Loans. (a) All proceeds of the Loans shall be used by the Borrowers (i) to fund the Acquisition, (ii) to fund (A) the Redemption or (B) the repurchase of common shares or other equity securities issued by WIL (provided that such shares or securities are cancelled, and not held in treasury for reissuance, immediately following the repurchase thereof) or (iii) to refinance commercial paper issued by either Borrower or the Guarantor. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any responsibility as to the use of any proceeds of the Loans. (b) None of the proceeds of the Loans were or shall be used directly or indirectly for the purpose of buying or carrying any "margin stock" within the meaning of Regulation U (herein called "margin stock") or for the purpose of reducing or retiring any indebtedness which was originally incurred to buy or carry a margin stock, or for any other purpose which might constitute this transaction a "purpose" credit within the meaning of Regulation U. No Obligor nor any agent acting on its behalf has taken or shall take any action which might cause this Agreement or any other Loan Document to violate Regulation T, U or X, or any other regulation of the Board or to violate the Exchange Act. Margin stock did not on the Effective Date, and does not now, constitute more than 25% of the assets of any Obligor. SECTION 5.13. Designation of the Obligations. The Obligations under this Agreement and under the other Loan Documents are pari passu with Indebtedness under the May 1996 Debenture Indenture and the October 2003 Debenture Indenture. SECTION 5.14.

Article IX ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent as its agent and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The bank 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 such bank and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with any Obligor or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not the Administrative Agent hereunder. The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise in writing as directed by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 11.05), and (c) except as expressly set forth herein, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to any of the Obligors or any of their Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required - 50 - Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 11.05) or in the absence of its own gross negligence, willful misconduct or unlawful acts. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Administrative Agent by a Borrower or a Lender, and the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or in connection herewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the 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 believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for either Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers 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 its duties and exercise its rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent as provided in this paragraph, the Administrative Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders and WIL. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with WIL, to appoint a successor. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by the Borrowers to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrowers and such successor. After the Administrative Agent's resignation hereunder, the - 51 - provisions of this Article and Sections 11.03 and 11.04 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 it was acting as Administrative Agent. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender 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 shall, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender 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 related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

(v) any full or partial release of the liability of WII or either Borrower on the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof, or any other Person now or hereafter liable, whether directly or indirectly, jointly, severally, or jointly and severally, to pay, perform, guarantee, or assure the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof; it being recognized, acknowledged, and agreed by WII that WII may be required to pay the - 53 - Guaranteed Obligations in full without assistance or support of any other Person, and that WII has not been induced to enter into this Guaranty on the basis of a contemplation, belief, understanding or agreement that any other Person shall be liable to perform the Guaranteed Obligations or that the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall look to any other Person to perform the Guaranteed Obligations; (vi) the taking or accepting of any other security, collateral or guaranty, or other assurance of payment, for all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations; (vii) any release, surrender, exchange, subordination, deterioration, waste, loss or impairment of any collateral, property or security, at any time existing in connection with, or assuring or securing payment of, all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations;

(x) any payment by either Borrower or WII to the Administrative Agent or any Lender is held to constitute a preference under bankruptcy or insolvency laws, or for any other reason either the Administrative Agent or any Lender is required to refund such payment or pay such amount to either Borrower, WII, or any other Person; or (xi) any other action taken or omitted to be taken with respect to this Agreement, any other Loan Document, the Guaranteed Obligations, or the security and collateral therefor, whether or not such action or omission prejudices WII or increases the likelihood that WII shall be required to pay the Guaranteed Obligations pursuant to the terms hereof; it being the unambiguous and unequivocal intention of WII that WII shall be obligated to pay the Guaranteed Obligations when due, notwithstanding any occurrence, circumstance, event, action, or omission whatsoever, whether contemplated or uncontemplated, and whether or not otherwise or particularly described herein, except for the full and final payment and satisfaction of the Guaranteed Obligations after the termination of all of the Commitments. (b) WII further agrees that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, as between WII, or the one hand, and the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, on the other hand, (i) the maturity of the Obligations may be accelerated as provided in Section 8.01 for the purposes of this Guaranty, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing the acceleration of the Obligations as against either Borrower and (ii) in the event of any purported acceleration (whether by declaration or automatic) of the Obligations as provided in Section - 54 - 8.01, the Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by WII for the purpose of this Guaranty. SECTION 10.03. Effect of Debtor Relief Laws. If after receipt of any payment of, or proceeds of any security applied (or intended to be applied) to the payment of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, the Administrative Agent or any Lender is for any reason compelled to surrender or voluntarily surrenders, such payment or proceeds to any Person (a) because such payment or application of proceeds is or may be avoided, invalidated, declared fraudulent, set aside, determined to be void or voidable as a preference, fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer, impermissible set off or a diversion of trust funds or (b) for any other reason, including (i) any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative body having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any of their respective properties or (ii) any settlement or compromise of any such claim effected by the Administrative Agent or any Lender with any such claimant (including either Borrower), then the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be reinstated and continue, and this Guaranty shall continue in full force as if such payment or proceeds have not been received, notwithstanding any revocation thereof or the cancellation of any instrument evidencing any of the Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise; and WII shall be liable to pay the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and hereby does indemnify the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and hold them harmless for the amount of such payment or proceeds so surrendered and all reasonable expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees, court costs and expenses attributable thereto) incurred by the Administrative Agent or any such Lender in the defense of any claim made against it that any payment or proceeds received by the Administrative Agent or any such Lender in respect of all or part of the Guaranteed Obligations must be surrendered. The provisions of this paragraph shall survive the termination of this Guaranty and any satisfaction and discharge of the Borrowers by virtue of any payment, court order, or any law. SECTION 10.04. Waiver. WII hereby waives promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance and any other notice with respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations and this Guaranty and waives presentment, demand for payment, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of dishonor or nonpayment and any requirement that the Administrative Agent or any Lender institute suit, collection proceedings or take any other action to collect any of the Guaranteed Obligations, including any requirement that the Administrative Agent or any Lender protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien against any property subject thereto or exhaust any right or take any action against any Borrower or any other Person or any collateral (it being the intention of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and WII that this Guaranty is to be a guaranty of payment and not of collection). It shall not be necessary for the Administrative Agent or any Lender, in order to enforce any payment by WII hereunder, to institute suit or exhaust its rights and remedies against WII, any Borrower or any other Person, including others liable to pay the Guaranteed Obligations, or to enforce its rights against any security ever given to secure payment thereof. WII hereby expressly waives to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law each and every right to which it may be entitled by virtue of the suretyship laws of the State of Texas or any other state in which it may be located, including any and all rights it may have pursuant to Rule 31, Texas Rules of Civil Procedure, Section 17.001 of the Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code and Chapter 34 of the Texas Business and Commerce Code. WII hereby waives marshaling of assets and liabilities, notice by the Administrative Agent or any Lender of any indebtedness or liability to which such Person applies or may apply any amounts received by - 55 - it, and of the creation, advancement, increase, existence, extension, renewal, rearrangement or modification of the Guaranteed Obligations. WII expressly waives, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the benefit of any and all laws providing for exemption of property from execution or for valuation and appraisal upon foreclosure. SECTION 10.05. Agreement to Defer Exercise of Subrogation. Notwithstanding any payment or payments made by WII hereunder, or any setoff or application by the Administrative Agent or any Lender of any security or of any credits or claims, WII will not assert or exercise any rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender or of itself against either Borrower to recover the amount of any payment made hereunder by WII to the Administrative Agent or any Lender by way of any claim, remedy or subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnity, participation or otherwise arising by contract, by statute, under common law or otherwise, and WII shall not have any right to exercise any right of recourse to or any claim against assets or property of either Borrower for such amounts, in each case unless and until the Obligations of such Borrower guaranteed hereby have been fully and finally satisfied. Until such time (but not thereafter), WII hereby agrees not to exercise any claim, right or remedy which it may now have or hereafter acquire against either Borrower that arises under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or from the performance by WII of the Guaranty hereunder including any claim, remedy or right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification or participation in any claim, right or remedy of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against either Borrower or WII, or any security that the Administrative Agent or any Lender now has or hereafter acquires pursuant hereto securing the Obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement, whether or not such claim, right or remedy arises in equity, under contract, by statute, under common law or otherwise. If any amount shall be paid to WII by either Borrower after payment in full of the Obligations, and the Obligations shall thereafter be reinstated in whole or in part and the Administrative Agent or any Lender forced to repay any sums received by any of them in payment of the Obligations, this Guaranty shall be automatically reinstated and such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and shall forthwith be paid to the Administrative Agent to be credited and applied to the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured. The provisions of this paragraph shall survive the termination of this Guaranty, and any satisfaction and discharge of either Borrower by virtue of any payment, court order or any federal or state law. SECTION 10.06. Full Force and Effect. This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty and shall remain in full force and effect until all of the Guaranteed Obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which any Borrower is a party and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty have been paid in full (after the termination of the Commitments). All rights, remedies and powers provided in this Guaranty may be exercised, and all waivers contained in this Guaranty may be enforced, only to the extent that the exercise or enforcement thereof does not violate any provisions of applicable law which may not be waived. Article XI MISCELLANEOUS SECTION 11.01. Waiver; Amendments. No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver - 56 - thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by any Obligor therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by Section 11.05, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default or Event of Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time. SECTION 11.02. Notices. (a) All notices and other communications provided for herein, including any modifications of, or waivers or consents under, this Agreement (collectively, "Communications") shall be given or made on a Business Day by telecopy (confirmed by mail) or other writing and telecopied or mailed or delivered to the intended recipient at the "Address for Notices" specified below its name on the signature pages hereof (or provided for in an Assignment and Assumption); or, as to any party hereto, at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a notice (given in accordance with this Section 11.02) (i) as to any Obligor, to the Administrative Agent, (ii) as to the Administrative Agent, to any Obligor, and to each Lender, and (iii) as to any Lender, to either Borrower and to the Administrative Agent. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all such Communications shall be deemed to have been duly given (a) when transmitted by telecopier, confirmation received, (b) when personally delivered, (c) one Business Day after deposit with an overnight mail or delivery service, postage prepaid or (d) five Business Days' after deposit in a receptacle maintained by the United States Postal Service, postage prepaid, registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, in each case given or addressed as aforesaid. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Communications to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Article II, Article III or Article IX shall not be effective until received by the Administrative Agent. (b) Notices and other communications to the Lenders hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices pursuant to Article II unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and the applicable Lender. The Administrative Agent or any Obligor may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications. SECTION 11.03. Expenses, Etc. Whether or not any Loan is ever made, the Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall pay or reimburse within 10 days after written demand (a) the Administrative Agent for paying the reasonable fees and expenses of legal counsel to the Administrative Agent, together with the reasonable fees and expenses of each local counsel to the Administrative Agent, in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement (including the exhibits and schedules hereto), the other Loan Documents and - 57 - the making of the Loans hereunder, and any modification, supplement or waiver of any of the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (b) the Administrative Agent for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, documentation, administration and syndication of any of the Loan Documents (including the advertising, marketing, printing, publicity, duplicating, mailing and similar expenses) or any of the Obligations; (c) the Administrative Agent or any Lender for paying all transfer, stamp, documentary or other similar taxes, assessments or charges levied by any governmental or revenue authority in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any other document referred to herein or therein; and (d) following the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, any Lender or the Administrative Agent for paying all amounts reasonably expended, advanced or incurred by such Lender or the Administrative Agent to collect the Obligations or to enforce, protect, preserve or defend the rights of the Lenders or the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, together with interest thereon at the Past Due Rate applicable to the Loans on each such amount from the due date of payment until the date of reimbursement to such Lender or the Administrative Agent. SECTION 11.04. Indemnity. (a) The Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and each Affiliate thereof and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents (each such Person being an "Indemnitee") from, and hold each Indemnitee harmless against, any and all losses, liabilities, claims or damages (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) to which any Indemnitee may become subject, insofar as such losses, liabilities, claims or damages arise out of or result from (i) any investigation, litigation or other proceeding (including any threatened investigation or proceeding) relating to this Agreement, any Loan or any other Loan Document or (ii) any actual or proposed use by either Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries of the proceeds of any extension of credit by any Lender hereunder, and the Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall reimburse each Indemnitee upon demand for any expenses (including reasonable legal fees) incurred in connection with any such investigation, litigation or other proceeding; but excluding any such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses incurred by reason of the gross negligence, willful misconduct or unlawful conduct of such Indemnitee. (b) WITHOUT LIMITING ANY PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT, IT IS THE EXPRESS INTENTION OF THE PARTIES HERETO THAT EACH INDEMNITEE HEREUNDER SHALL BE INDEMNIFIED AND HELD HARMLESS AGAINST ANY AND ALL LOSSES, LIABILITIES, CLAIMS OR DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR RESULTING FROM THE SOLE OR CONCURRENT ORDINARY NEGLIGENCE OF SUCH INDEMNITEE. WITHOUT PREJUDICE TO THE SURVIVAL OF ANY OTHER OBLIGATIONS OF THE BORROWERS HEREUNDER AND UNDER THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS TO WHICH IT IS A PARTY, THE OBLIGATIONS OF THE BORROWERS UNDER THIS SECTION 11.04 SHALL SURVIVE THE TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS AND THE PAYMENT OF THE OTHER OBLIGATIONS OR THE ASSIGNMENT OF THE NOTES. SECTION 11.05. Amendments, Etc. - 58 - (a) No amendment to or modification of this Agreement, the Notes or any other Loan Document shall in any event be effective against any Obligor unless the same shall be agreed or consented to in writing by such Obligor. No amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, the Notes or any other Loan Document, nor any consent to any departure by any Obligor therefrom, shall in any event be effective against the Lenders unless the same shall be agreed or consented to in writing by the Required Lenders, and each such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided that no amendment, modification, waiver or consent shall (a) increase the Commitment of any of the Lenders (or reinstate any termination or reduction of such Commitment), or subject any of the Lenders to any additional obligations, without the written consent of such Lender; (b) reduce the principal of, or interest on, any Loan, fee or other amount due hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby; (c) postpone or extend the Maturity Date, the Termination Date, the Availability Period or any scheduled date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, any Loan, fee or other sum to be paid hereunder, or waive any Event of Default described in Section 8.01(a), without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby; (d) change the percentage of any of the Commitments or of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of Obligations, or the percentage of Lenders, which shall be required for the Lenders or any of them to take any action under this Agreement (including, to change the definition of "Required Lenders"), without the written consent of each Lender; (e) change Section 3.01(b) in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender; (f) change any provision contained in Section 11.03, 11.04 or 11.05, without the written consent of each Lender, (g) release either Borrower from its joint and several liability for the Obligations, without the written consent of each Lender; or (h) release any Person from its liability under a guaranty, without the written consent of each Lender. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 11.05 to the contrary, no amendment, modification, waiver or consent shall be made with respect to Article IX without the consent of the Administrative Agent to the extent it affects the Administrative Agent, in its role as the Administrative Agent. Subject to the foregoing, the amendment or waiver of any provisions of Article V, VI, VII or VIII may be effected with the consent of the Required Lenders. SECTION 11.06. Successors and Assigns. (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that (i) no Obligor may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by such Obligor without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section. 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 paragraph (c) 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) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in subparagraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under - 59 - this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) of: (A) WIL, provided that no consent of WIL shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund or, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any other assignee; and (B) the Administrative Agent, provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment of any Commitment to an assignee that is a Lender with a Commitment immediately prior to giving effect to such assignment. (ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions: (A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender's Commitment or Loans of any Type, the amount of the Commitment or Loans 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) shall not be less than $5,000,000 unless each of WIL and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, provided that no such consent of WIL shall be required if an Event of Default under clause (a), (f) or (g) of Article VIII has occurred and is continuing; (B) 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; (C) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; (D) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire; (E) except in connection with assignments made while an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, all prospective assignees of a Lender shall be required, as a condition to the effectiveness of such Assignment, to execute and deliver the forms required under Section 3.02(e) for any Lender, and no Assignment shall be effective in connection herewith unless and until such forms are so delivered; (F) no assignment shall be made before the earlier to occur of (1) the New Revolving Credit Facility Effective Date and (2) January 31, 2006; and (G) in the case of any assignee subject to the prior written consent of WIL under Section 11.06(b)(i), no assignment shall be made to any such assignee unless such assignee provides a written representation to WIL that such assignee - 60 - is not subject under then current law to any withholding tax on amounts payable to such assignee under this Agreement. For purposes of this Section 11.06, the term "Approved Fund" has the following meaning: "Approved Fund" means any Person (other than a natural person) that is engaged in making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business and that is administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an Affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender. (iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to subparagraph (b)(iv) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this 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 2.12, 2.13, 3.02, 11.03 and 11.04). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 11.06 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 paragraph (c) of this Section. (iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans owing by each Borrower to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the "Register"). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Obligors, 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 Obligors and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. (v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee's completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph. - 61 - (c) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of any Obligor or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a "Participant") in all or a portion of such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender's obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the other 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, modification or waiver described in the proviso to Section 11.05 that affects such Participant. Subject to subparagraph (c)(ii) of this Section, each Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.12, 2.13 and 3.02 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 8.02 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 3.01(b), and to deliver the forms required by Section 3.02(e), as though it were a Lender. (ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.12 and 3.02 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 WIL'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 3.02 unless WIL is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrowers, to comply with Sections 3.02(d) and 3.02(e) as though it were a Lender. (iii) Anything in this Section 11.06 to the contrary notwithstanding, no Participant shall be entitled to benefits under this Agreement if the Lender from whom such Participant purchased its participation would not be entitled to the same benefits, and no Participant shall be entitled to rights and benefits hereunder in excess of such Participant's pro rata interest in the applicable Lender's rights hereunder, the rights of a Participant hereunder being determined solely by and based upon the Lender from whom the Participant purchased its interest hereunder. (d) Notwithstanding any other provision herein, any Lender may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 11.06, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant any information relating to the Obligors furnished to such Lender by or on behalf of any Obligor, subject to the provisions of Section 11.07. (e) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including without limitation any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and - 62 - this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. (f) All transfers of any interest in any Note hereunder shall be in compliance with all federal, state and other securities laws, if applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, however, the parties to this Agreement do not intend that any transfer under this Section 11.06 be construed as a "purchase" or "sale" of a "security" within the meaning of any applicable federal or state securities laws. SECTION 11.07. Confidentiality. Each Lender agrees to exercise its best efforts to keep any information delivered or made available by any Obligor to it pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement (including any information obtained pursuant to Section 6.01 other than information on EDGAR or on a publicly accessible page on the worldwide web), confidential from anyone other than Persons employed or retained by such Lender or its Affiliates who are or are expected to become engaged in evaluating, approving, structuring or administering the Loans; provided that nothing herein shall prevent any Lender from disclosing such information (a) to any other Lender or such Lender's Affiliates, (b) pursuant to subpoena or upon the order of any court or administrative agency, (c) upon the request or demand of any regulatory agency or authority having or claiming jurisdiction over such Lender, (d) which has been publicly disclosed, (e) to the extent reasonably required in connection with any litigation to which the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any Obligor or their respective Affiliates may be a party, (f) to the extent reasonably required in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder or under any other Loan Document, (g) to such Lender's legal counsel and independent auditors and (h) to any actual or proposed participant or assignee of all or part of its rights hereunder which has agreed in writing to be bound by the provisions of this Section 11.07. Each Lender shall promptly notify WIL of any information that it is required or requested to deliver pursuant to clause (b) or (c) of this Section 11.07 and, if no Obligor is a party to any such litigation, clause (e) of this Section 11.07. SECTION 11.08. Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations, warranties and covenants contained herein or made in writing by the Obligors in connection herewith and the other Loan Documents shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents until two years and one day after payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of the Commitments of the Lenders, and shall bind and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto, whether so expressed or not; provided that the undertaking of the Lenders to make Loans and extend credit to the Borrowers shall not inure to the benefit of any successor or assign of either Borrower, except a successor or assign that becomes such in accordance with Section 7.02. SECTION 11.09. Governing Law. This Agreement, the Notes, the other Loan Documents and all other documents executed in connection herewith and therewith and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto and thereto, shall be deemed to be contracts and agreements executed by the Obligors party thereto, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under the laws of the State of New York and of the United States of America and for all purposes - 63 - shall be construed in accordance with, and governed by, the laws of said state and, to the extent controlling, of the United States of America. SECTION 11.10. Independence of Covenants. All covenants contained in this Agreement and in the other Loan Documents shall be given independent effect so that if a particular action or condition is not permitted by any of such covenants, the fact that such action or condition would be permitted by an exception to, or otherwise be within the limitations of, another covenant, shall not avoid the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default if such action is taken or condition exists. SECTION 11.11. Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective on the Effective Date. SECTION 11.12. Severability. Should any clause, sentence, paragraph or Section of this Agreement be judicially declared to be invalid, unenforceable or void, such decision shall not have the effect of invalidating or voiding the remainder of this Agreement, and the parties hereto agree that the part or parts of this Agreement so held to be invalid, unenforceable or void shall be deemed to have been stricken herefrom and the remainder shall have the same force and effectiveness as if such part or parts had never been included herein. SECTION 11.13. Conflicts Between This Agreement and the Other Loan Documents. In the event of any conflict between, or inconsistency with, the terms of this Agreement and the terms of any of the other Loan Documents, the terms of this Agreement shall control. SECTION 11.14. Limitation of Interest. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively the "Charges"), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the "Maximum Rate") which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender. SECTION 11.15. 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. SECTION 11.16. Submission to Jurisdiction. (a) ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS MAY BE BROUGHT IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SITTING IN NEW YORK COUNTY - 64 - OR THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND ANY APPELLATE COURT FROM EITHER THEREOF, AND, BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT, EACH OBLIGOR, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH LENDER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY ACCEPTS FOR ITSELF AND IN RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY, UNCONDITIONALLY, THE NON EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE AFORESAID COURTS WITH RESPECT TO ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING.
