(i)            The Borrower Group Companies shall jointly and severally indemnify each Recipient, on an after-Tax basis, for any Indemnified Taxes that are paid or payable by such Recipient in connection with this Agreement and any other Financing Document (including amounts paid or payable under this Section 2.05(d)) and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  The indemnity under this Section 2.05(d) shall be paid within ten days after the Recipient delivers to the relevant Borrower Group Company a certificate stating the amount of any Indemnified Taxes so paid or payable by such Recipient and describing the basis for the indemnification claim.  Such certificate shall be conclusive of the amount so paid or payable absent manifest error.  Such Recipient shall deliver a copy of such certificate to the Administrative Agent.
 
(ii)           An indemnity payment shall not be payable under Section 2.05(d)(i) above with respect to any Indemnified Tax imposed by Ireland and assessed on a Recipient or Participant, as the case may be, to the extent that Tax is compensated for by an increased payment under Section 2.05(a)(i); or would have been compensated for by an increased payment under Section 2.05(a)(i) but was not so compensated solely because one of the exclusions in Section 2.05(a)(ii) applied.
 
- 41 -

(e)           Indemnification by the Lenders.  Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent and the Security Trustee on an after-Tax basis for any Taxes (but, in the case of any Indemnified Taxes, only to the extent that the relevant Borrower Group Company has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent and the Security Trustee for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the relevant Borrower Group Company to do so) attributable to such Lender that are paid or payable by the Administrative Agent and the Security Trustee in connection with this Agreement and the other Financing Documents and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  The indemnity under this Section 2.05(e) shall be paid within ten days after the Administrative Agent and the Security Trustee delivers to the applicable Lender a certificate stating the amount of Taxes so paid or payable by the Administrative Agent and the Security Trustee.  Such certificate shall be conclusive of the amount so paid or payable absent manifest error.
 
(f)            Status of Lenders.
 
(i)            Each Lender or Participant, as the case may be, on or prior to the date it becomes a party hereto, shall inform the Withholding Agent whether it is a Qualifying Person or not, as the case may be, by completing and providing to the Withholding Agent a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit K hereto (such certificate, a "Qualifying Person Confirmation").  If a Recipient or Participant, as the case may be, fails to provide a Qualifying Person Confirmation in accordance with this Section 2.05(f) then that Lender or Participant, as the case may be, shall be treated for the purposes of the Agreement (including by the Borrower and Withholding Agent) as if it is not a Qualifying Person until such time as it notifies the Withholding Agent which category applies.
 
(ii)           Any Lender or Participant, as the case may be, that is entitled to an exemption from, or reduction of, any Tax with respect to any payments under this Agreement or any other Financing Document shall deliver to the Borrower and Withholding Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested, in writing, by the Borrower or the Withholding Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation (including an updated Qualifying Person Confirmation) reasonably requested in writing by the Borrower or the Withholding Agent as will permit such payments to be made without, or at a reduced rate of, withholding.  In addition, any Lender or Participant, as the case may be, if requested in writing by the Borrower or the Withholding Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Withholding Agent in writing as will enable the Borrower or the Withholding Agent to determine whether or not such Lender or Participant is subject to any withholding (including backup withholding) or information reporting requirements or to enable the Borrower or the Withholding Agent to comply with the provisions of Sections 891A, 891E and 891F and 891G TCA, as the case may be (and any regulations made thereunder).  Upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Withholding Agent in writing, any Lender or Participant, as the case may be (other than as a result of a change in Applicable Law, of which Borrower has not timely notified such Person in writing) shall update any form or certification previously delivered pursuant to this Section 2.05(f).  If any form or certification previously delivered pursuant to this Section 2.05(f) expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect with respect to a Lender or Participant, as the case may be, such Lender or Participant shall promptly (and in any event within ten days after such expiration, obsolescence or inaccuracy) notify the Borrower and the Withholding Agent in writing of such expiration, obsolescence or inaccuracy and update the form or certification if it is legally eligible to do so.  A Lender or Participant, as the case may be, that is a Qualifying Person solely on account of being a Treaty Lender and each Borrower Group Company which makes a payment to which that Treaty Lender is entitled, shall reasonably cooperate in completing any procedural formalities necessary for that Borrower Group Company to obtain authorization to make that payment without any deduction or withholding of any Tax imposed by Ireland.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding three sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentations (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.05(f)(i) and (iii)) shall not be required if in the Lender's judgment, exercised in good faith, such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.
 
- 42 -

(iii)          Each Lender or Participant, as the case may be, shall provide two copies of the appropriate U.S. tax forms ("Withholding Tax Forms") establishing that it is entitled to a complete exemption from U.S. withholding Tax on payments to be made under this Agreement on the date it becomes a Lender or a Participant, as the case may be, to the Withholding Agent.  If the basis for such Lender's or Participant's, as the case may be, exemption is the "portfolio interest exemption" of Section 871 or 881 of the Code, such Lender or Participant shall also provide a certification that it is not a (1) bank within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (2) 10% shareholder of a Borrower Group Company within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code and (3) it is not a controlled foreign corporation related to a Borrower Group Company as described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code.  If any previously delivered Withholding Tax Form or certification expires, becomes inaccurate or becomes obsolete, the Lender or Participant, as the case may be, that provided such Withholding Tax Forms or certification shall provide replacement or successor Withholding Tax Forms or certifications establishing that it remains entitled to a complete exemption from U.S. withholding tax on payments to be made under this Agreement to the extent that it is legally able to do so.
 
(iv)          If a payment made to a Lender or Participant under this Agreement or any other Financing Document would be subject to withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender or Participant were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Withholding Agent in writing, at the time or times prescribed by Applicable Law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Withholding Agent, such documentation prescribed by Applicable Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Withholding Agent in writing as may be necessary for the Borrower or the Withholding Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Lender has or has not complied with such Lender's or Participant's, as the case may be, obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.  Solely for purposes of this Section 2.05(f), "FATCA" shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
 
- 43 -

(g)           Treatment of Certain Refunds.  If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes (or the economic benefit of a credit in lieu thereof) as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.05 (including additional amounts paid pursuant to this Section 2.05), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (or credit in lieu thereof) (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 2.05 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including any Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund).  Such indemnifying party, upon the written request of such indemnified party, shall promptly repay to such indemnified party the amount paid by such indemnified party pursuant to the previous sentence (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) (other than penalties or other charges arising out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the indemnified party) in the event such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.05(g), in no event will any indemnified party be required to pay any amount to any indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 2.05(g) to the extent such payment would place such indemnified party in a less favorable position (on a net after-Tax basis) than such indemnified party would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid.  This Section 2.05(g) shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.  In addition, during the occurrence of an Event of Default, no Recipient shall be required to make any payment under this Section 2.05(g), but shall promptly do so as soon as any and all Events of Default shall have ceased to exist.
 
Section 2.06.          Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set offs.
 
(a)           Payments by the Borrower Group Companies.  Each Borrower Group Company shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder, and pursuant to the Credit Agreement and the Note Purchase Agreement (whether of principal, interest or fees, or otherwise) or under any other Financing Document (except to the extent otherwise provided therein) prior to 12:00 p.m., 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 the Security Trustee at its offices in Salt Lake City, Utah, except as otherwise expressly provided in the relevant Financing Document and except that, payments made pursuant to Sections 2.05 and 10.03 of this Agreement and Section 2.10 of the Credit Agreement, which shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto.  The Security Trustee shall distribute any such payments received by it for 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 or under any other Financing Document (except to the extent otherwise provided therein) shall be made in Dollars.
 
(b)          Application of Insufficient Payments.  If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Security Trustee to pay fully all amounts of principal, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, to pay 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, to pay principal then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal then due to such parties.
 
- 44 -

(c)           Pro Rata TreatmentExcept to the extent otherwise provided herein: (i) the Drawdown shall be allocated pro rata among the Lenders according to the amounts of their respective Commitments; (ii) each payment or prepayment of principal of Drawings by the Borrower shall be made for account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid principal amounts of the Drawings; (iii) each payment of interest on Drawings by the Borrower shall be made for account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the amounts of interest on such Drawings then due and payable to the respective Lenders, (iv) each payment of the Fixed Rate Prepayment Fee on Drawings being prepaid by the Borrower shall be made for account of the Purchasers pro rata in accordance with the amounts of principal and interest on the Drawings then outstanding to the respective Purchasers; and (v) each payment of the Floating Rate Prepayment Fee on Drawings being prepaid by the Borrower shall be made for account of the Banks pro rata in accordance with the amounts of principal and interest on the Drawings then outstanding to the respective Banks.
 
(d)          Sharing of Payments by Lenders.  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 Drawings resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Drawings and accrued interest thereon then due 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 Drawings 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 Drawings; 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 any Borrower Group Company pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement, the Note Purchase Agreement or the Credit Agreement, as applicable, or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Drawings to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of either thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply).  Each Borrower Group Company 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 Group Company rights of set off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Borrower Group Company in the amount of such participation.
 
(e)           Certain Deductions by the Security Trustee.  If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 10.03(c), then the Security Trustee may, in its discretion and notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, (i) apply any amounts thereafter received by the Security Trustee for the account of such Lender for the benefit of the Security Trustee or the Administrative Agent (as applicable), to satisfy such Lender's obligations to it under Section 10.03(c) until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid, and/or (ii) hold any such amounts in a segregated account as cash collateral for, and application to, any future funding obligations of such Lender under Section 10.03(c), in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii) above, in any order as determined by the Security Trustee in its discretion.

Section 2.07.         Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.
 
(a)           If any Bank requests compensation under Section 2.10 of the Credit Agreement, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Bank or Purchaser pursuant to Section 2.05, then such Bank or Purchaser, as applicable, shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Drawings hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Bank or such Purchaser, as applicable, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Sections 2.10 of the Credit Agreement or 2.05 of this Agreement, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Bank or such Purchaser, as applicable, to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Bank or such Purchaser.  The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Bank or any Purchaser in connection with any such designation or assignment.
 
(b)          If any Bank requests compensation under Section 2.10 of the Credit Agreement, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Bank, any Purchaser or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Bank or any Purchaser pursuant to Section 2.05, or if any Bank or any Purchaser becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Bank or such Purchaser, as applicable, and the Administrative Agent, require such Bank or such Purchaser, as applicable, to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 5.02 of the Note Purchase Agreement or Section 3.02 of the Credit Agreement, as the case may be), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Bank or Purchaser, as applicable, if a Bank or Purchaser accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Bank or Purchaser, as applicable, shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Drawings, 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 Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.10 of the Credit Agreement or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.05 of this Agreement, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments.  A Bank or a Purchaser, as applicable, shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Bank or such Purchaser, as applicable, or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

(a)           Application of Proceeds from the Disposition or Total Loss of a Portfolio Aircraft.  To the extent that a mandatory prepayment is required in connection with any Disposition or Total Loss of an Aircraft pursuant to Section 2.03(b), and for the avoidance of doubt provided the Borrower has not substituted an Eligible Aircraft for the related Portfolio Aircraft or Aircraft Interest pursuant to Section 6.08 or provided additional cash collateral as permitted in Section 5.12), and subject always to Section 2.08(c), all Net Available Proceeds (including without limitation any interest earned thereon) received by the Security Trustee that are identified by the Borrower in a notice to the Security Trustee and the Administrative Agent as resulting from the Disposition or Total Loss of any Portfolio Aircraft shall be applied by the Security Trustee as set forth in this paragraph (a); provided that by 2:00 p.m. New York City time at least two Business Days prior to such application, the Borrower shall have delivered a certificate to the Security Trustee and the Administrative Agent (i) identifying the Business Day on which such application is to be made (which shall be within ten Business Days of such Disposition or Total Loss of any Portfolio Aircraft or Aircraft Interest), (ii) setting forth, in form and detail reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (x) a calculation of the amount of such Net Available Proceeds and (y) a calculation of the aggregate principal amount of Drawings required to be prepaid pursuant to Section 2.03(b)(i) (such amount, the "Required Prepayment Amount"), and (iii) stating whether any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Section 2.08(c) of this Agreement shall apply to such mandatory prepayment rather than this Section 2.08(a):

Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement, the Note Purchase Agreement or the Credit Agreement, as applicable, to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender the Drawings of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 10.02); provided, that this Section 2.09 shall not apply to the vote of a Defaulting Lender in the case of an amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of each Lender or each Lender affected thereby.
 
ARTICLE III

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
 
Each Borrower Group Company jointly and severally represents and warrants to the Lenders as of the Effective Date and as of each Release Date as follows:

- 78 -

For purposes hereof, it is understood that any SG Guaranteed Obligations to any Person arising under an agreement entered into at a time such Person (or an affiliate thereof) is party hereto as a Lender or Derivatives Creditor shall continue to constitute SG Guaranteed Obligations, notwithstanding that such Person (or its affiliate) has ceased to be a Lender or Derivatives Creditor party hereto (by assigning all of its Commitments, Drawings, and other interests herein) at the time a claim is to be made in respect of such SG Guaranteed Obligations.
 
Section 7.02.         Obligations Unconditional.  The obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantors under Section 7.01 are absolute and unconditional, joint and several, irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein, or any substitution, release or exchange of any other guarantee of or security for any of the SG Guaranteed Obligations, irrespective of any law, regulation, decree or order of any jurisdiction affecting any term of any SG Guaranteed Obligations or the Lenders', Derivatives Creditors' or Secured Party Representatives' rights with respect thereto, and, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, irrespective of any other circumstance whatsoever that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or Subsidiary Guarantor, it being the intent of this Section 7.02 that the obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional, joint and several, under any and all circumstances.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is agreed that the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall not alter or impair the liability of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereunder, which shall remain absolute and unconditional as described above:

- 79 -

(iv)          any lien or security interest granted to, or in favor of, the Secured Party Representatives or any Lender or Lenders or any Derivatives Creditors as security for any of the SG Guaranteed Obligations shall fail to be perfected.
 
The Subsidiary Guarantors hereby expressly waive diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest and all notices whatsoever, and any requirement that the Administrative Agent, the Security Trustee or any Lender exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against the Borrower under this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein, or against any other Person under any other guarantee of, or security for, any of the SG Guaranteed Obligations.
 
Section 7.03.         Reinstatement.  The obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantors under this Article shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower in respect of the SG Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the SG Guaranteed Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise, and the Subsidiary Guarantors jointly and severally agree that they will indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Security Trustee, each Lender and any Derivatives Creditor on demand for all reasonable costs and expenses (including fees of counsel) incurred by the Administrative Agent or such Lender in connection with such rescission or restoration, including any such costs and expenses incurred in defending against any claim alleging that such payment constituted a preference, fraudulent transfer or similar payment under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law.
 
Section 7.04.         Subrogation.  The Subsidiary Guarantors hereby jointly and severally agree that until the payment and satisfaction in full of all SG Guaranteed Obligations and the expiration and termination of the Commitments of the Lenders under this Agreement they shall not exercise any right or remedy arising by reason of any performance by them of their guarantee in Section 7.01, whether by subrogation or otherwise, against the Borrower or any other guarantor of any of the SG Guaranteed Obligations or any security for any of the SG Guaranteed Obligations.
 
Section 7.05.         Remedies.  The Subsidiary Guarantors jointly and severally agree that, as between the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Lenders and any Derivatives Creditor, the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as provided in Article VIII (and shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable in the circumstances provided in Article VIII) for purposes of Section 7.01 notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or such obligations from becoming automatically due and payable) as against the Borrower and that, in the event of such declaration (or such obligations being deemed to have become automatically due and payable), such obligations (whether or not due and payable by the Borrower) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Subsidiary Guarantors for purposes of Section 7.01.
 
Section 7.06.         Instrument for the Payment of Money.  Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby acknowledges that the guarantee in this Article constitutes an instrument for the payment of money, and consents and agrees that any Lender, and any Derivatives Creditor or any Secured Party Representative, at its sole option, in the event of a dispute by such Subsidiary Guarantor in the payment of any moneys due hereunder, shall have the right to proceed by motion for summary judgment in lieu of complaint pursuant to N.Y. Civ. Prac. L&R § 3213.
 
- 80 -

Section 7.07.         Continuing Guarantee.  The guarantee in this Article is a continuing guarantee, and shall apply to all SG Guaranteed Obligations whenever arising.
 
Section 7.08.         Rights of Contribution.  The Subsidiary Guarantors hereby agree, as between themselves, that if any Subsidiary Guarantor shall become an Excess Funding Guarantor (as defined below) by reason of the payment by such Subsidiary Guarantor of any SG Guaranteed Obligations, each other Subsidiary Guarantor shall, on demand of such Excess Funding Guarantor (but subject to the next sentence), pay to such Excess Funding Guarantor an amount equal to such Subsidiary Guarantor's Pro Rata Share (as defined below and determined, for this purpose, without reference to the properties, debts and liabilities of such Excess Funding Guarantor) of the Excess Payment (as defined below) in respect of such SG Guaranteed Obligations.  The payment obligation of a Subsidiary Guarantor to any Excess Funding Guarantor under this Section shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior payment in full of the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor under the other provisions of this Article and such Excess Funding Guarantor shall not exercise any right or remedy with respect to such excess until payment and satisfaction in full of all of such obligations.
 
For purposes of this Section, (i) "Excess Funding Guarantor" means, in respect of any SG Guaranteed Obligations, a Subsidiary Guarantor that has paid an amount in excess of its Pro Rata Share of such SG Guaranteed Obligations, (ii) "Excess Payment" means, in respect of any SG Guaranteed Obligations, the amount paid by an Excess Funding Guarantor in excess of its Pro Rata Share of such SG Guaranteed Obligations and (iii) "Pro Rata Share" means, for any Subsidiary Guarantor, the ratio (expressed as a percentage) of (x) the amount by which the aggregate present fair saleable value of all properties of such Subsidiary Guarantor (excluding any shares of stock of any other Subsidiary Guarantor) exceeds the amount of all the debts and liabilities of such Subsidiary Guarantor (including contingent, subordinated, unmatured and unliquidated liabilities, but excluding the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder and any obligations of any other Subsidiary Guarantor that have been Guaranteed by such Subsidiary Guarantor) to (y) the amount by which the aggregate fair saleable value of all properties of all of the Subsidiary Guarantors exceeds the amount of all the debts and liabilities (including contingent, subordinated, unmatured and unliquidated liabilities, but excluding the obligations of the Borrower and the Subsidiary Guarantors hereunder and under the other Financing Documents) of all of the Subsidiary Guarantors, determined (A) with respect to any Subsidiary Guarantor that is a party hereto on the Effective Date, as of the Effective Date, and (B) with respect to any other Subsidiary Guarantor, as of the date such Subsidiary Guarantor becomes a Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder.
 
Section 7.09.         General Limitation on Guarantee Obligations.  In any action or proceeding involving any state corporate law, or any state or Federal bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any Subsidiary Guarantor under Section 7.01 would otherwise, taking into account the provisions of Section 7.08, be held or determined to be void, invalid or unenforceable, or subordinated to the claims of any other creditors, on account of the amount of its liability under Section 7.01, then, notwithstanding any other provision hereof to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by such Subsidiary Guarantor, any Lender, any Derivatives Creditor, the Security Trustee, the Administrative Agent or any other Person, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that is valid and enforceable and not subordinated to the claims of other creditors as determined in such action or proceeding.

ARTICLE IX

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE SECURITY TRUSTEE
 
Section 9.01.         Appointment.  Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and appoints (i) BTMU as the agent of such Lender under this Agreement, the Note Purchase Agreement, the Credit Agreement and the other Financing Documents to take the actions contemplated hereby and thereby as "Administrative Agent" and (ii) WFB, acting through its corporate trust administration, as the security trustee of such Lender under this Agreement, the Note Purchase Agreement, the Credit Agreement and the other Financing Documents to take the actions contemplated hereby and thereby as "Security Trustee" and, in each case, to exercise such powers and discretion as are expressly delegated to it under this Agreement, the Note Purchase Agreement, the Credit Agreement and each other Financing Document to which it is a party, and each Lender irrevocably authorizes each Secured Party Representative, in such capacity, to take such action on its behalf and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to it under the provisions of this Agreement, the Note Purchase Agreement, the Credit Agreement and the other Financing Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.  Further, the Administrative Agent shall act as the common representative of the Secured Parties, with the power to determine and agree to any terms and conditions of the Security Documents, execute any other agreement or instrument, give or receive any notice and take any other action in relation to the creation, perfection, maintenance, enforcement and release of the security created thereunder in the name and on behalf of the Secured Parties.
 
Each Secured Party Representative and its affiliates may purchase notes from, make advances and loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with any Borrower Group Company as though such Secured Party Representative were not a Secured Party Representative.  With respect to its Drawings made or renewed by it, each Secured Party Representative shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement, the Note Purchase Agreement, the Credit Agreement and the other Financing Documents as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not a Secured Party Representative, and the terms "Lender" and "Lenders" shall include each Secured Party Representative in its individual capacity.
 
- 85 -

Section 9.02.         Exculpatory Provisions.  No Secured Party Representative shall have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein, in the Note Purchase Agreement, in the Credit Agreement and in the other Financing Documents.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) no Secured Party Representative shall have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby, by the Note Purchase Agreement, by the Credit Agreement or by the other Financing Documents that such Secured Party Representative is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders, (c) except as expressly set forth herein, in the Note Purchase Agreement, in the Credit Agreement and in the other Financing Documents, no Secured Party Representative shall have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers or have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to any Borrower Group Company that is communicated to or obtained by the such Secured Party Representative or any of its Affiliates in any capacity and (d) except as expressly set forth herein, in the Note Purchase Agreement, in the Credit Agreement and in the other Financing Documents, the Administrative Agent shall, in exercising any discretionary powers or granting any consents, act in accordance with the instructions of the Required Lenders, and absent any such instructions shall not be obliged to exercise any such discretions or powers.  No Secured Party Representative shall be liable for any error in judgment made by it in good faith, or any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction not subject to appeal.  In no event shall a Secured Party Representative be obligated to act in any manner that is contrary to Applicable Law.  No Secured Party Representative shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is received by a Responsible Officer of such Secured Party Representative from a Borrower Group Company, and neither Secured Party Representative shall 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, the Note Purchase Agreement, the Credit Agreement or any other Financing Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith (including recalculating or re-verifying any calculation or information set forth therein), (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, the Note Purchase Agreement, the Credit Agreement, any other Financing Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein or therein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to such Secured Party Representative.  No Secured Party Representative shall be liable for any action or inaction of Borrower, any other Secured Party Representative, any Lender, or any other party (or agent thereof) to this Agreement, the Note Purchase Agreement, the Credit Agreement or any other Financing Document, and may assume performance by them of their obligations under this Agreement, the Note Purchase Agreement, the Credit Agreement or any other Financing Document, absent written notice or actual knowledge of a Responsible Officer of the Secured Party Representative to the contrary.
 
Section 9.03.         Reliance.  Each Secured Party Representative shall be entitled to request and to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, without liability, upon any instrument, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, without further inquiry into such Person's or Persons' authority, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including, without limitation, counsel to the Secured Party Representative and counsel to the Borrower Group Companies), independent accountants and other experts selected by such Secured Party Representative.  The Secured Party Representatives may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the Holder thereof for all purposes unless such Note shall have been transferred in accordance with Section 5.02 of the Note Purchase Agreement or Section 3.02 of the Credit Agreement, as the case may be, and all actions required by such Section in connection with such transfer shall have been taken.  Each Secured Party Representative shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Financing Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of or direction from the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders or any other instructing group of Lenders specified by this Agreement) as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking, continuing to take, or refraining from taking any such action.  Each Secured Party Representative shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Financing Documents in accordance with a request of or direction from the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders or any other instructing group of Lenders specified by this Agreement), and such request or direction and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all future Holders of the Global Notes.
 
- 86 -

Section 9.04.         Delegation.  Each Secured Party Representative may execute any of its duties under this Agreement and the other Financing Documents by or through agents, any applicable co-trustees or separate trustees as consented to by the Required Lenders, or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel of its own choosing concerning all matters pertaining to such duties and shall not incur any liability in acting in good faith in accordance with any advice from such counsel.  No Secured Party Representative shall be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents, any such co-trustees or separate trustees, or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care.
 
Section 9.05.         Withholding Tax.  To the extent required by any Applicable Law, the Security Trustee may withhold from any payment to any Lender the amount of any U.S. federal withholding Taxes required to be withheld under Applicable Law.  Each Lender agrees to provide to the Security Trustee, the Withholding Tax Forms required by Section 2.05(f)(iii) of this Agreement and, upon written request, such other forms and other information as may be necessary for the Security Trustee to determine whether any U.S. withholding tax obligations apply to any payments to a Lender hereunder, including appropriate W-9 or W-8 forms.  Without limiting or expanding the provisions of Section 2.05, each Lender shall, on an after Tax basis, indemnify and hold harmless the Security Trustee against, and shall make payable in respect thereof within ten days after written demand therefor, any and all U.S. federal withholding taxes and any and all related losses, claims, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Security Trustee) incurred by or asserted against the Security Trustee by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service as a result of the failure of the Security Trustee to properly withhold any amounts from payments to or for the account of such Lender by reason of such Lender's failure to comply with its obligations under this Section 9.05 (including, without limitation, because the appropriate form was not delivered or not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Security Trustee of a change in circumstance that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of such required withholding ineffective) unless such failure is a result of the Security Trustee's gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction not subject to appeal.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Security Trustee shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  Each Lender hereby authorizes the Security Trustee to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto against any amount due from it to the Security Trustee under this Section 9.05.
 
- 87 -

Notwithstanding anything that may be to the contrary in this Section 9.05, Section 2.05 or elsewhere in any Financing Document, the Borrower Group Companies shall be required to promptly notify the Security Trustee in writing in the event any payments made by any of the Borrower Group Companies are considered to be made from U.S. sources for U.S. federal income Tax purposes (whether as a result of a determination made by any of the Borrower Group Companies, their tax advisors or auditors, the Internal Revenue Service, any U.S. court or otherwise), and neither the Security Trustee nor any of the Lenders nor the Administrative Agent shall have any obligation to make such determination or have any liabilities in the event of the failure of any of the Borrower Group Companies to make such notification or to properly make such determination.  And, in the event the Security Trustee or any Lender or the Administrative Agent incurs any liability as a result of the Borrower Group Companies failure to provide such notification or to make such determination properly, the Borrower Group Companies shall, on an after-Tax basis, indemnify and hold harmless the Security Trustee and the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, against, and shall make payable in respect thereof within ten days after written demand therefor, any and all Taxes and any and all related losses, claims, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for such Persons).
 
In addition, notwithstanding anything that may be to the contrary in this Section 9.05, Section 2.05 or elsewhere in any Financing Document, with respect to Irish withholding Taxes, the Security Trustee, acting solely at the direction and instruction of the Borrower Group Companies, shall act as a Withholding Agent in respect of Irish withholding Taxes.  In the event the Security Trustee or any Lender or the Administrative Agent incurs any liability as a result of the Borrower Group Companies failure to properly direct or instruct the Security Trustee in its capacity as Withholding Agent as provided in the prior sentence, in respect of any Irish withholding Taxes or any other non-U.S. withholding Taxes, the Borrower Group Companies shall, on an after-Tax basis, indemnify and hold harmless the Security Trustee and the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, against, and shall make payable in respect thereof within ten days after written demand therefor, any and all taxes, and any and all related losses, claims, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for such Persons).
 
The agreements in this Section 9.05 shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Security Trustee, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other obligations.
 
Section 9.06.         Successor Secured Party Representative.  The Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent and the Security Trustee may resign as Security Trustee upon ten days' notice to the Lenders and the Borrower. Additionally, the Administrative Agent may be removed at any time with cause by an instrument or concurrent instruments delivered in writing delivered to the Borrower, the Security Trustee and the Administrative Agent and signed by the Required Lenders.  If any such Secured Party Representative shall resign or be removed under this Agreement and the other Financing Documents, then the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor representative for the Lenders, which successor representative shall (unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing) be subject to approval by the Borrower (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of such Secured Party Representative, and the term "Administrative Agent" or "Security Trustee," as the case may be, shall mean such successor representative effective upon such appointment and approval, and such former Secured Party Representative's rights, powers and duties as such Secured Party Representative shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Secured Party Representative or any of the parties to this Agreement or any Lenders.  If no successor agent or security trustee has accepted appointment as such Secured Party Representative by the date that is ten days following a retiring Secured Party Representative's notice of resignation, then the retiring Secured Party Representative may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Secured Party Representative or for other appropriate relief.  The costs and expenses (including its attorneys' fees and expenses) incurred by the Secured Party Representative in connection with such proceeding shall be paid by the Borrower.  Upon receipt of the identity of the successor Security Trustee, the Security Trustee shall deliver the Collateral then held under the Financing Documents to the successor Security Trustee.  Upon its resignation and delivery of the Collateral as set forth in this Section, the Security Trustee shall be discharged of and from any and all further obligations arising in connection with the Collateral or this Agreement.  After any retiring or removed Secured Party Representative' resignation or removal as Secured Party Representative hereunder, the provisions of this Article 9 and Section 10.03 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Secured Party Representative under this Agreement and the other Financing Documents.
 
- 88 -

Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither of the Secured Party Representatives nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys‑in‑fact or affiliates have made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by any Secured Party Representative hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower Group Companies or any affiliate of the Borrower Group Companies, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Secured Party Representative to any Lender.  Each Lender represents to the Secured Party Representatives that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Secured Party Representative or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of an investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower Group Companies and their affiliates and made its own decision to make its Loans hereunder and enter into this Agreement.  Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Secured Party Representative or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Financing Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower Group Companies and their affiliates.  Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by any Secured Party Representative hereunder or any other Financing Document, no Secured Party Representative shall have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of any Borrower Group Company or any affiliate of a Borrower Group Company that may come into the possession of such Secured Party Representative or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates.
 
Section 9.07.         Security Trustee.  The Security Trustee shall be entitled to payment from the Borrower for customary fees and expenses for all services rendered by it hereunder as separately agreed to in writing between the Borrower and the Security Trustee (as such fees may be adjusted from time to time as agreed in writing between the Borrower and the Security Trustee).  The obligations of the Borrower contained in this Section shall survive the termination or assignment of this Agreement and the resignation or removal of the Security Trustee.
 
- 89 -

(a)           The Security Trustee shall not be required to expend or risk any of its own funds or otherwise incur any liability, financial or otherwise, in the performance of any of its duties hereunder.
 
(b)           Any corporation into which the Security Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Security Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the business of the Security Trustee shall be the successor of the Security Trustee hereunder without the execution or filing of any paper with any party hereto or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto except where an instrument of transfer or assignment is required by Applicable Law to effect such succession, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding.
 
(c)           Whenever in the administration of the provisions of this Agreement or the other Financing Documents the Security Trustee shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking or suffering any action to be taken hereunder, such matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed) may be deemed to be conclusively proved and established by a certificate signed by one of Borrower or the Administrative Agent's officers, and delivered to the Security Trustee and such certificate shall be full warrant to the Security Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it under the provisions of this Agreement upon the faith thereof, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Security Trustee as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction not subject to appeal.
 
(d)          Whenever, in the course of performing its duties pursuant to this Agreement or any of the Financing Documents, the Security Trustee is required to give its consent or direction or otherwise make a determination under any Financing Documents, it is understood and agreed that in all such instances it shall only provide such consent, direction or determination upon receipt of a written direction received from the Administrative Agent (subject to Section 10.02), and may conclusively rely and shall be fully protected in relying upon such direction.  Notwithstanding anything herein or in the Financing Documents to the contrary, the Security Trustee shall be fully protected and incur no liability in refraining from giving such consent or direction in the absence of the direction of the Administrative Agent.
 
(e)           The parties hereto acknowledge that for purposes of applicable local law, the Security Trustee is required to execute certain Security Documents in its individual capacity, but always for the benefit of the Secured Parties.  This notwithstanding, the parties hereto agree that with regard to such Security Documents, the Security Trustee shall be subject to the duties and responsibilities of the Security Trustee and shall be entitled to the rights, protections, exculpations, benefits and indemnities set forth in this Agreement.
 
- 90 -

(f)           When the Security Trustee acts on any information, instructions or communications (including, but not limited to, communications with respect to the delivery of securities or the wire transfer of funds) sent in accordance with Section 10.01, the Security Trustee, absent gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction not subject to appeal, shall not be responsible or liable in the event such communication is not an authorized or authentic communication of the Borrower or Administrative Agent or is not in the form the Borrower and Administrative Agent sent or intended to send (whether due to fraud, distortion or otherwise).  The Borrower shall indemnify the Security Trustee against any loss, liability, claim or expense (including legal fees and expenses) it may incur with its acting in accordance with any such communication.
 
(g)           In no event shall the Security Trustee be liable (i) for acting in accordance with or conclusively relying upon any instruction, notice, demand, certificate or document from the Borrower and the Administrative Agent or any entity acting on behalf of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, (ii) for any indirect, consequential, punitive or special damages, regardless of the form of action and whether or not any such damages were foreseeable or contemplated, (iii) for the acts or omissions of its nominees, correspondents, designees, agents, subagents or subcustodians appointed by it with due care, (iv) for the investment or reinvestment of any cash held by it hereunder, in each case in good faith, in accordance with the terms hereof, including without limitation any liability for any delays in the investment or reinvestment of the Collateral, or any loss of interest or income incident to any such delays, or (v) for an amount in excess of the value of the Collateral, valued as of the date of deposit, but only to the extent of direct money damages, in each case unless caused by the Security Trustee's gross negligence, willful misconduct or, in the handling or disbursement of monies, ordinary negligence as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction not subject to appeal.
 
(h)          The Security Trustee shall not incur any liability for not performing any act or fulfilling any duty, obligation or responsibility hereunder by reason of any occurrence beyond the control of the Security Trustee (including but not limited to any act or provision of any present or future law or regulation or governmental authority, any act of God or war, civil unrest, local or national disturbance or disaster, any act of terrorism, or the unavailability of the Federal Reserve Bank wire or facsimile or other wire or communication facility).
 
(i)            The Security Trustee shall not be responsible in any respect for the form, execution, validity, value or genuineness of documents or securities deposited under any Financing Document, or for any description therein, or for the identity or authority of persons executing or delivering or purporting to execute or deliver any such document, security or endorsement.  The Security Trustee shall not be called upon to advise any party as to the wisdom in selling or retaining or taking or refraining from any action with respect to any securities or other property deposited under any Financing Document.
 
(j)            The Security Trustee shall not be under any duty to give the Collateral held by it under the Financing Documents any greater degree of care than it gives its own similar property and shall not be required to invest any funds held by it except as directed in the Account Control Agreement and the Security Agreement, and shall not be liable for any loss, including without limitation any loss of principal or interest, or for any breakage fees or penalties in connection with any investments of the Collateral.  Uninvested funds held by the Security Trustee shall not earn or accrue interest.
 
- 91 -

(k)           In the event of any ambiguity or uncertainty hereunder or in any notice, instruction or other communication received by the Security Trustee under any Financing Document, the Security Trustee may, in its sole discretion, refrain from taking any action other than to retain possession of the Collateral, unless the Security Trustee receives written instructions, signed by the Administrative Agent, which eliminates such ambiguity or uncertainty.
 
(l)            In the event of any dispute between or conflicting claims among the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and any other person or entity with respect to any Collateral, the Security Trustee shall be entitled, in its sole discretion, to refuse to comply with any and all claims, demands or instructions with respect to such Collateral so long as such dispute or conflict shall continue, and the Security Trustee shall not be or become liable in any way to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent for failure or refusal to comply with such conflicting claims, demands or instructions.  The Security Trustee shall be entitled to refuse to act until, in its sole discretion, either (i) such conflicting or adverse claims or demands shall have been determined by a final order, judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction, which order, judgment or decree is not subject to appeal, or settled by agreement between the conflicting parties as evidenced in a writing satisfactory to the Security Trustee or (ii) the Security Trustee shall have received security or an indemnity satisfactory to it sufficient to hold it harmless from and against any and all losses which it may incur by reason of so acting.  Any court order, judgment or decree shall be accompanied by a legal opinion by counsel for the presenting party, satisfactory to the Security Trustee, to the effect that said order, judgment or decree represents a final adjudication of the rights of the parties by a court of competent jurisdiction, and that the time for appeal from such order, judgment or decree has expired without an appeal having been filed with such court.  The Security Trustee shall act on such court order and legal opinions without further question.  The Security Trustee may, in addition, elect, in its sole discretion, to commence an interpleader action or seek other judicial relief or orders as it may deem, in its sole discretion, necessary.  The costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) incurred in connection with such proceeding shall be paid by, and shall be deemed a joint and several obligation of, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.
 
(m)          The Security Trustee shall have no duty to monitor the effectiveness or perfection of any security interest in the Collateral or the performance of any Borrower Group Company or any other party to the Financing Documents nor shall have no liability in connection with non-compliance by any Borrower Group Company with any statutory or regulatory requirements related to the Collateral.
 
The Borrower shall pay or reimburse the Security Trustee upon request for any transfer taxes or other taxes of the Borrower Group Companies relating to the Collateral incurred in connection herewith and shall indemnify and hold harmless the Security Trustee from any amounts that it is obligated to pay in the way of such taxes.  The Borrower will provide the Security Trustee with an appropriate IRS W-8 form upon request.  It is understood that the Security Trustee shall be responsible for income reporting only as required by Applicable Law with respect to income earned on the Collateral held by the Security Trustee and will not be responsible for any other reporting; provided, however, that pursuant to the first sentence of this paragraph, the Borrower shall be responsible for the payment of any taxes on such income.  This paragraph shall survive notwithstanding any termination or assignment of this Agreement or the resignation or removal of the Security Trustee.

(iii)          change Section 2.05(b), (c) or (d), or the last sentence of Section 2.08(b), in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereunder, without the written consent of each Lender and each Derivatives Creditor;

(vii)        amend or modify Sections 2.03(b), 2.08 or 10.02(b) without the written consent of each Lender and each Derivatives Creditor; and
 
(viii)       release the Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty without the written consent of each Lender and each Derivatives Creditor.

(c)           Reimbursement by Lenders.  To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent or the Security Trustee under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent or the Security Trustee, as the case may be, such Lender's Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent or Security Trustee, as the case may be, in its capacity as such.

- 97 -

(e)           Payments.  All amounts due under this Section shall be payable reasonably promptly after written demand therefor.

Section 10.12.        Judgment Currency.  This is an international loan transaction in which the specification of Dollars and payment in New York City is of the essence, and the obligations of the Guarantor, the Borrower and any Subsidiary Guarantor under this Agreement to make payment to (or for account of) a Lender or Secured Party Representative in Dollars shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender or recovery pursuant to any judgment expressed in or converted into any other currency or in another place except to the extent that such tender or recovery results in the effective receipt by such Lender or Secured Party Representative in New York City of the full amount of Dollars payable to such Lender or Secured Party Representative under this Agreement.  If for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in Dollars into another currency (in this Section called the "judgment currency"), the rate of exchange that shall be applied shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase such Dollars at the principal office of the Administrative Agent in New York City with the judgment currency on the Business Day next preceding the day on which such judgment is rendered.  The obligation of the Guarantor, the Borrower and any Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of any such sum due from it to the Administrative Agent, the Security Trustee, or any Lender hereunder or under any other Financing Document (in this Section called an "Entitled Person") shall, notwithstanding the rate of exchange actually applied in rendering such judgment, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Entitled Person of any sum adjudged to be due hereunder in the judgment currency such Entitled Person may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase and transfer Dollars to New York City with the amount of the judgment currency so adjudged to be due; and the Borrower hereby, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, agrees to indemnify such Entitled Person against, and to pay such Entitled Person on demand, in Dollars, the amount (if any) by which the sum originally due to such Entitled Person in Dollars hereunder exceeds the amount of the Dollars so purchased and transferred.
 
Section 10.13.       Use of English Language.  This Agreement has been negotiated and executed in the English language.  All certificates, reports, notices and other documents and communications given or delivered pursuant to this Agreement (including any modifications or supplements hereto) shall be in the English language, or accompanied by a certified English translation thereof.
 
Section 10.14.       Headings.  Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.
 
Section 10.15.       Treatment of Certain Information; Confidentiality.

(b)           Confidentiality.  Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (i) to its and its Affiliates' directors, officers, members, partners, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (ii) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority, (iii) to the extent required by Applicable Laws or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (iv) to any credit insurance provider relating to the Borrower and its obligations, (v) to any other party to this Agreement, (vi) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Financing Document or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Financing Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, whether or not any Borrower Group Company is a party thereto, (vii) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same or at least as restrictive as those of this paragraph, to (x) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (y) any actual or prospective direct or indirect counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower and their obligations, (viii) with the consent of the Borrower or (ix) to the extent such Information (A) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this paragraph or (B) becomes available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Grantor or a Borrower Group Company.  For the purposes of this paragraph, "Information" means all information received from the Grantor or any Borrower Group Company relating to the Grantor or any Borrower Group Company or its business, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Grantor or any Borrower Group Company or information that is independently developed by the Administrative Agent or any Lender without recourse to any information provided by any Borrower Group Company; provided that, in the case of information received from the Grantor or any Borrower Group Company after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential.  Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.
 
EACH LENDER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT INFORMATION (AS DEFINED IN THIS SECTION) FURNISHED TO IT PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY INCLUDE MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION CONCERNING THE BORROWER AND ITS RELATED PARTIES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES, AND CONFIRMS THAT IT HAS DEVELOPED COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES REGARDING THE USE OF MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION AND THAT IT WILL HANDLE SUCH MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THOSE PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE LAW, INCLUDING FEDERAL AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS.
 
- 103 -

ALL INFORMATION, INCLUDING REQUESTS FOR WAIVERS AND AMENDMENTS, FURNISHED BY THE BORROWER OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT PURSUANT TO, OR IN THE COURSE OF ADMINISTERING, THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE SYNDICATE-LEVEL INFORMATION, WHICH MAY CONTAIN MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION ABOUT THE BORROWER AND ITS RELATED PARTIES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES.  ACCORDINGLY, EACH LENDER REPRESENTS TO THE BORROWER AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT THAT IT HAS IDENTIFIED IN ITS ADMINISTRATIVE QUESTIONNAIRE A CREDIT CONTACT WHO MAY RECEIVE INFORMATION THAT MAY CONTAIN MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH ITS COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE LAW, INCLUDING FEDERAL AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS.
 
Section 10.16.       USA PATRIOT Act.  Each Lender hereby notifies the Borrower and each Borrower Group Company that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the "USA PATRIOT Act"), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower and each Borrower Group Company, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and each Borrower Group Company and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrower and each Borrower Group Company in accordance with the USA PATRIOT Act.
 
Section 10.17.       Owner Trusts.  The parties hereto agree that all statements, representations, covenants and agreements made by any Borrower Group Company that is an owner trust, unless expressly otherwise stated, are made and intended only for the purpose of binding the respective trust estates and establishing the existence of rights and remedies that can be exercised and enforced only against such trust estates.  Therefore, no recourse shall be had with respect to anything contained in this Agreement or any other Financing Document (except for any express provisions that the owner trustees are responsible for in their respective individual capacities) against any owner trustee in its individual capacity or against any institution or person that becomes a successor trustee or co-trustee or any officer, director, trustee, servant or direct or indirect parent or controlling Person or Persons of any of them.  The foregoing provisions of this Section 10.17 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the other Financing Documents.
 
Section 10.18.       Conflict of Interest.  The parties further understand that there may be situations where the Administrative Agent or its respective customers (including the Grantor, the Borrower and the Borrower Group Companies) either now have or may in the future have interests or take actions that may conflict with the interests of any one or more of the Lenders (including the interests of the Lenders hereunder and under the other Financing Documents).  The parties agree that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to restrict its activities as a result of it serving as the Administrative Agent, and that the Administrative Agent may undertake any Activities without further consultation with or notification to any Lender.  None of (i) this Agreement or any other Financing Document, (ii) the receipt by the Administrative Agent of information (including Information) concerning the Grantor, the Borrower or the Borrower Group Companies (including information concerning the ability of the Borrower to perform its obligations hereunder and under the other Financing Documents) or (iii) any other matter, shall give rise to any fiduciary, equitable or contractual duties (including any duty of trust or confidence) owing by the Administrative Agent to any Lender including any such duty that would prevent or restrict the Administrative Agent from acting on behalf of customers (including the Grantor, the Borrower or the Borrower Group Companies) or for its own account.

Section 10.19.       Posting of Approved Electronic Communications.
 
(a)           Each of the Lenders and the Borrower agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make the Approved Electronic Communications available to the Lenders by posting such Approved Electronic Communications on IntraLinks™ or a substantially similar electronic platform chosen by the Administrative Agent to be its electronic transmission system (the "Approved Electronic Platform").
 
(b)           Although the Approved Electronic Platform and its primary web portal are secured with generally-applicable security procedures and policies implemented or modified by the Administrative Agent from time to time (including, as of the Effective Date, a dual firewall and a User ID/Password Authorization System) and the Approved Electronic Platform is secured through a single-user-per-deal authorization method whereby each user may access the Approved Electronic Platform only on a deal-by-deal basis, each of the Lenders and the Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the distribution of material through an electronic medium is not necessarily secure and that there are confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution.  In consideration for the convenience and other benefits afforded by such distribution and for the other consideration provided hereunder, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, each of the Lenders and the Borrower hereby approves distribution of the Approved Electronic Communications through the Approved Electronic Platform and understands and assumes the risks of such distribution.
 
(c)          THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE."  NEITHER THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT NOR ANY OTHER MEMBER OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT'S GROUP WARRANTS THE ACCURACY, ADEQUACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND EACH EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM.  NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OTHER MEMBER OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT'S GROUP IN CONNECTION WITH THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM.
 
(d)           Each of the Lenders and the Borrower agree that the Administrative Agent may, but (except as may be required by applicable law) shall not be obligated to, store the Approved Electronic Communications on the Approved Electronic Platform in accordance with the Administrative Agent's generally-applicable document retention procedures and policies in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

Section 10.20.       No Fiduciary Duty.  The Administrative Agent, each Lender and their respective Affiliates (collectively, solely for purposes of this paragraph, the "Lenders"), may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Guarantor and the Borrower Group Companies, their stockholders and/or their affiliates.  Each Borrower Group Company agrees that nothing in the Financing Documents or otherwise will be deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship or fiduciary or other implied duty between any Lender, on the one hand, and such Borrower Group Company, its stockholders or its affiliates, on the other.  The Grantor and the Borrower Group Companies acknowledge and agree that (i) the transactions contemplated by the Financing Documents (including the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder and thereunder) are arm's-length commercial transactions between the Lenders, on the one hand, and the Borrower Group Companies, on the other, and (ii) in connection therewith and with the process leading thereto, (x) no Lender has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Guarantor or any Borrower Group Company, its stockholders or its affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (or the exercise of rights or remedies with respect thereto) or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Lender has advised, is currently advising or will advise the Guarantor or any Borrower Group Company, its stockholders or its Affiliates on other matters) or any other obligation to any Borrower Group Company except the obligations expressly set forth in the Financing Documents and (y) each Lender is acting solely as principal and not as the agent or fiduciary of the Guarantor or any Borrower Group Company, its management, stockholders, creditors or any other Person.  Each Borrower Group Company acknowledges and agrees that it has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate and that it is responsible for making its own independent judgment with respect to such transactions and the process leading thereto.  Each Borrower Group Company agrees that it will not claim that any Lender has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to the Guarantor or such Borrower Group Company, in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto.
 
Section 10.21.       Consent and Direction.  By its signature below, each of the Lenders, collectively constituting 100% of the Lenders, hereby consents to the terms of this Agreement and the other Financing Documents applicable to it and directs the Administrative Agent to consent to the terms of this Agreement and to direct the Security Trustee to execute this Agreement and take any and all further action necessary or appropriate to give effect to the transactions contemplated hereby.  In reliance on the immediately preceding sentence, by its signature below, the Administrative Agent hereby consents to the terms of this Agreement and directs the Security Trustee to execute this Agreement and to take any and all further action necessary or appropriate to give effect to the transactions contemplated thereby.
