16

in each case by an amount deemed material by such Lender, and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender or such applicable Lending Installation of making or maintaining its Eurodollar Loans or Commitment or to reduce the return received by such Lender or such applicable Lending Installation in connection with such Eurodollar Loans or Commitment, then, within 15 days of demand by such Lender, Borrower shall pay such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduction in amount received; provided that a certificate setting forth such amount or amounts as shall be necessary to compensate such Lender as specified in clauses (a) through (c) above, as the case may be, and containing an explanation in reasonable detail of the manner in which such amount or amounts shall have been determined, shall have been delivered to Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

3.4           Funding Indemnification. If any payment of a Eurodollar Loan occurs on a day which is not the last day of an Interest Period therefor, whether because of acceleration, prepayment or otherwise, or a Eurodollar Loan is not made on the date specified by Borrower for any reason other than default by the Lenders, Borrower will indemnify each Lender for any loss or cost incurred by it resulting therefrom, including any loss or cost in liquidating or employing deposits acquired to fund or maintain such Eurodollar Loan.

(c)          Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify each Lender and the Agent for the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed on amounts payable under this Section 3.5) paid by such Lender or the Agent and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto. Payments due under this indemnification shall be made within 30 days of the date such Lender or the Agent makes demand therefor pursuant to Section 3.6.

Each Non-U.S. Lender further undertakes to deliver to Borrower and the Agent (x) renewals or additional copies of such form (or any successor form) on or before the date that such form expires or becomes obsolete, and (y) after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent forms so delivered by it, such additional forms or amendments thereto as may be reasonably requested by Borrower or the Agent. All forms or amendments described in the preceding sentence shall certify 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 or amendment with respect to it and such Lender advises Borrower and the Agent that it is not capable of receiving payments without any deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax.

(e)          For any period during which a Non-U.S. Lender has failed to provide Borrower with an appropriate form pursuant to clause (d) above (unless such failure is due to a change in treaty, law or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, occurring subsequent to the date on which a form originally was required to be provided), Borrower shall not be required to increase any amount payable to such Non-U.S. Lender pursuant to Section 3.5(a)(i) or to otherwise indemnify such Non-U.S. Lender under this Section 3.5 with respect to Taxes imposed by the United States; provided that, should a Non-U.S. Lender which is otherwise exempt from or subject to a reduced rate of withholding tax become subject to Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form required under clause (d) above, Borrower shall take such steps as such Non-U.S. Lender shall reasonably request to assist such Non-U.S. Lender to recover such Taxes.

(f)          Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax with respect to payments under this Agreement or any Note pursuant to the law of any relevant jurisdiction or any treaty shall deliver to Borrower (with a copy to the Agent), at the time or times

18

prescribed by applicable law, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate.

(g)          If the U.S. Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority or an authority of any other country or any political subdivision thereof asserts a claim that the Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender (because the appropriate form was not delivered or properly completed, because such Lender failed to notify the Agent of a change in circumstances which rendered its exemption from withholding ineffective, or for any other reason), such Lender shall indemnify the Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Agent as tax, withholding therefor, or otherwise, including penalties and interest, and including taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable to the Agent under this subsection, together with all costs and expenses related thereto (including attorneys fees and time charges of attorneys for the Agent, which attorneys may be employees of the Agent). The obligations of the Lenders under this Section 3.5(g) shall survive the payment of the Obligations and termination of this Agreement.

3.6           Mitigation of Circumstances; Lender Statements; Survival of Indemnity. Each Lender shall promptly notify Borrower and the Agent of any event of which it has knowledge which will result in, and will use reasonable commercial efforts available to it (and not, in such Lender’s good faith judgment, otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender) to mitigate or avoid, (a) any obligation of Borrower to pay any amount pursuant to Section 3.1, 3.2 or 3.5 and (b) the unavailability of Eurodollar Loans under Section 3.3 (and, if any Lender has given notice of any such event described above and thereafter such event ceases to exist, such Lender shall promptly so notify Borrower and the Agent). Without limiting the foregoing, each Lender shall, to the extent reasonably possible, designate an alternate Lending Installation with respect to its Eurodollar Loans to reduce any liability of Borrower to such Lender under Sections 3.1, 3.2 and 3.5 or to avoid the unavailability of Eurodollar Loans under Section 3.3, so long as such designation is not, in the judgment of such Lender, disadvantageous to such Lender. Any Lender claiming compensation under Section 3.1, 3.2, 3.4, or 3.5 shall deliver a written statement to Borrower (with a copy to the Agent) as to the amount due under the applicable Section, which statement shall set forth in reasonable detail the calculations upon which such Lender determined such amount and shall be final, conclusive and binding on Borrower in the absence of manifest error. Determination of amounts payable under any such Section in connection with a Eurodollar Loan shall be calculated as though each Lender funded its Eurodollar Loan through the purchase of a deposit of the type and maturity corresponding to the deposit used as a reference in determining the Eurodollar Rate applicable to such Loan, whether in fact that is the case or not. Unless otherwise provided herein, the amount specified in the written statement of any Lender shall be payable on demand after receipt by Borrower of such written statement. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article III, if any Lender fails to notify Borrower of any event or circumstance which will entitle such Lender to compensation from Borrower pursuant to Section 3.1, 3.2 or 3.5 within 60 days after such Lender obtains knowledge of such event or circumstance, then Borrower will not be responsible for any such compensation arising prior to the 60th day before Borrower receives notice from such Lender of such event or circumstance. The obligations of Borrower under Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.4 and 3.5 shall survive payment of the Obligations and termination of this Agreement.

3.7           Replacement of Lender. If (a) any Lender makes a demand for compensation under Section 3.1, 3.2 or 3.5 or a notice of the type described in Section 3.3 or (b) the credit rating then in effect with respect to a Lender’s senior unsecured long term debt securities without third-party credit enhancement is not, in the case of a Moody’s rating, Baa1 (with stable outlook) or, in the case of an S&P or Fitch rating, BBB+ (with stable outlook), or better (any such Lender, an “Affected Lender”), then Borrower may replace such Affected Lender as a party to this Agreement with one or more other Lenders which are willing to accept an assignment from such Lender, and upon notice from Borrower such

19

Affected Lender shall assign, without recourse or warranty, its Commitment, its Loans and all of its other rights and obligations hereunder to such other Lenders for a purchase price equal to the sum of the principal amount of the Loans so assigned, all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, such Affected Lender’s ratable share of all accrued and unpaid fees, any amount payable pursuant to Section 3.4 as a result of such Affected Lender receiving payment of any Eurodollar Loan prior to the end of an Interest Period therefor (assuming for such purpose that receipt of payment pursuant to such assignment constitutes payment of each outstanding Eurodollar Loan) and all other obligations owed to such Affected Lender hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Scotiabank (Ireland) Limited shall not be deemed to be an Affected Lender solely by the fact that it does not have a credit rating, provided that: (i) The Bank of Nova Scotia, an Affiliate of Scotiabank (Ireland) Limited, maintains the minimum credit rating required in this Section 3.7, and (ii) Scotiabank (Ireland) Limited is not rated by Moody’s, S&P or Fitch.

The execution and delivery by Borrower of the Loan Documents and the performance of its obligations thereunder have been duly authorized by proper corporate proceedings, and the Loan Documents constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of Borrower enforceable against Borrower in accordance with their terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally.

The charges, accruals and reserves on the books of Borrower and its Subsidiaries in respect of any taxes or other governmental charges are adequate.

5.7           Litigation and Contingent Obligations. Except as disclosed in the Public Reports, there is no litigation, arbitration, governmental investigation, proceeding or inquiry pending or, to the knowledge of Borrower, threatened against or affecting Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or which seeks to prevent, enjoin or delay the making of any Loans. Other than any liability incident to any litigation, arbitration or proceeding which could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, Borrower has no material Contingent Obligations not provided for or disclosed in the Public Reports.

5.8           Significant Subsidiaries. Schedule 2 contains an accurate list of all Significant Subsidiaries of Borrower as of the Closing Date setting forth their respective jurisdictions of organization and the percentage of their respective capital stock or other ownership interests owned by Borrower or other Subsidiaries of Borrower.

Each Plan complies in all material respects with all applicable requirements of law and regulations, no Reportable Event has occurred with respect to any Plan, neither Borrower nor any other member of the Controlled Group has, within the immediately preceding five years, withdrawn from any Plan or initiated steps to do so, and no steps have been taken, within the immediately preceding five years, to reorganize or terminate any Plan.

5.12         Material Agreements. Neither Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is in default in the performance, observance or fulfillment of any of the obligations, covenants or conditions contained in any agreement to which it is a party, which default could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

In the ordinary course of its business, the officers of Borrower consider the effect of Environmental Laws on the business of Borrower and its Subsidiaries, in the course of which they identify and evaluate potential risks and liabilities accruing to Borrower and its Subsidiaries due to Environmental Laws. On the basis of this consideration, Borrower has concluded that Environmental Laws are not reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Except as disclosed in the Public Reports, neither Borrower nor any Subsidiary of Borrower has received any notice to the effect that its operations are not in material compliance with any of the requirements of applicable Environmental Laws or are the subject of any federal or state investigation evaluating whether any remedial action is needed to respond to a release of any toxic or hazardous waste or substance into the environment, which noncompliance or remedial action could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

ARTICLE VIII

ACCELERATION, WAIVERS, AMENDMENTS AND REMEDIES

8.1           Acceleration. If any Default described in Section 7.6 or 7.7 occurs, the Obligations of Borrower shall immediately become due and payable without any election or action on the part of the Agent or any Lender. If any other Default occurs, the Required Lenders (or the Agent, with the consent of the Required Lenders) may terminate or suspend the obligations of the Lenders to make Loans to Borrower hereunder, or declare the Obligations of Borrower to be due and payable, or both, whereupon such obligations of the Lenders shall terminate and/or the Obligations of Borrower shall become immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which Borrower hereby expressly waives.

If, within 30 days after acceleration of the maturity of the Obligations of Borrower as a result of any Default (other than any Default as described in Section 7.6 or 7.7) and before any judgment or decree for the payment of the Obligations due shall have been obtained or entered, the Required Lenders (in their sole discretion) shall so direct, the Agent shall, by notice to Borrower, rescind and annul such termination and/or acceleration.

8.2           Amendments. Subject to the provisions of this Article VIII, the Required Lenders (or the Agent, with the consent in writing of the Required Lenders) and Borrower may enter into agreements supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding or modifying any provisions to this Agreement changing in any manner the rights of the Lenders or Borrower hereunder or waiving any Default or Unmatured Default hereunder; provided that no such supplemental agreement shall, without the consent of all of the Lenders:

(a)          Extend the final maturity of any Loan or forgive all or any portion of the principal amount thereof, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest thereon.

(b)          Reduce the percentage specified in the definition of Required Lenders.

(c)          Extend the Termination Date, increase the amount of the Commitment of any Lender hereunder or permit Borrower to assign its rights under this Agreement.

(d)          Amend, modify or waive the pro rata sharing of payments by and among the Lenders without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby.

(e)          Amend this Section 8.2.

No amendment of any provision of this Agreement relating to the Agent shall be effective without the written consent of the Agent.

Notwithstanding the fact that the consent of all the Lenders is required in certain circumstances as set forth above, each Lender is entitled to vote as such Lender sees fit on any bankruptcy reorganization plan that affects the Loans, and each Lender acknowledges that the provisions of Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code supersedes the unanimous consent provisions set forth herein.

8.3           Preservation of Rights. No delay or omission of the Agent or any Lender to exercise any right under the Loan Documents shall impair such right or be construed to be a waiver of any Default or Unmatured Default or an acquiescence therein, and the making of the Loans notwithstanding the existence of a Default or Unmatured Default or the inability of Borrower to satisfy the conditions

32

precedent to such Loans shall not constitute any waiver or acquiescence. Any single or partial exercise of any such right shall not preclude other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, and no waiver, amendment or other variation of the terms, conditions or provisions of any Loan Document whatsoever shall be valid unless in writing signed by the parties required pursuant to Section 8.2 and then only to the extent in such writing specifically set forth. All remedies contained in the Loan Documents or by law afforded shall be cumulative and all shall be available to the Agent or any Lender until the Obligations have been paid in full.

Neither the Agent nor any Lender shall have any liability with respect to, and Borrower hereby waives, releases and agrees not to sue for, any special, indirect or consequential damages suffered by Borrower in connection with, arising out of or in any way related to the Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby.

ARTICLE X

THE AGENT

10.1         Appointment; Nature of Relationship.  The Bank of Nova Scotia is hereby appointed by each of the Lenders as its contractual representative (herein referred to as the “Agent”) hereunder and under each other Loan Document, and each of the Lenders irrevocably authorizes the Agent to act as the contractual representative of such Lender with the rights and duties expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents.  The Agent agrees to act as such contractual representative upon the express conditions contained in this Article X.  Notwithstanding the use of the defined term “Agent,” it is expressly understood and agreed that the Agent shall not have any fiduciary responsibilities to any Lender by reason of this Agreement or any other Loan Document and that the Agent is merely acting as the contractual representative of the Lenders with only those duties as are expressly set forth in this

Agreement and the other Loan Documents.  In its capacity as the Lenders’ contractual representative, the Agent (a) does not hereby assume any fiduciary duties to any of the Lenders, (b) is a “representative” of the Lenders within the meaning of Section 9-105 of the Uniform Commercial Code and (c) is acting as an independent contractor, the rights and duties of which are limited to those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.  Each of the Lenders hereby agrees to assert no claim against the Agent on any agency theory or any other theory of liability for breach of fiduciary duty, all of which claims each Lender hereby waives.

10.5         Action on Instructions of Lenders.  The Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, hereunder and under any other Loan Document in accordance with written instructions signed by the Required Lenders (or, when expressly required hereunder, all of the Lenders), and such instructions and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding on all of the Lenders.  The Lenders hereby acknowledge that the Agent shall be under no duty to take any discretionary action permitted to be taken by it pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall be requested in writing to do so by the Required Lenders.  The Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action hereunder and under any other Loan Document unless it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders pro rata against any and all liability, cost and expense that it may incur by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action.

10.6         Employment of Agents and Counsel.  The Agent may execute any of its duties as Agent hereunder and under any other Loan Document by or through employees, agents and attorneys in fact and shall not be answerable to the Lenders, except as to money or securities received by it or its authorized agents, for the default or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys in fact selected by it with reasonable care.  The Agent shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning the contractual arrangement between the Agent and the Lenders and all matters pertaining to the Agent’s duties hereunder and under any other Loan Document.

10.8         Agent’s Reimbursement and Indemnification.  The Lenders agree to reimburse and indemnify the Agent ratably in proportion to their respective Commitments (or, if the Commitments have been terminated, in proportion to their Commitments immediately prior to such termination) (a) for any amounts not reimbursed by Borrower for which the Agent is entitled to reimbursement by Borrower under the Loan Documents, (b) for any other expenses incurred by the Agent on behalf of the Lenders, in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration and enforcement of the Loan Documents (including for any expenses incurred by the Agent in connection with any dispute between the Agent and any Lender or between two or more of the Lenders) and (c) for any liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind and nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Agent in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents or any document delivered in connection therewith or the transactions contemplated thereby (including for any such amounts incurred by or asserted against the Agent in connection with any dispute between the Agent and any Lender or between two or more of the Lenders), or the enforcement of any of the terms of the Loan Documents or of any such other documents, provided that (i) no Lender shall be liable for any of the foregoing to the extent any of the foregoing is found in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Agent and (ii) any indemnification required pursuant to Section 3.5(g) shall, notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 10.8, be paid by the relevant Lender in accordance with the provisions thereof.  The obligations of the Lenders under this Section 10.8 shall survive payment of the Obligations and termination of this Agreement.

10.9         Notice of Default.  The Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Unmatured Default hereunder (except for failure of Borrower to pay any amount required to be paid to the Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders) unless the Agent has received written notice from a Lender or Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Unmatured Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”.  In the event that the Agent receives such a notice, the Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to all Lenders.

10.10         Rights as a Lender.  In the event the Agent is a Lender, the Agent shall have the same rights and powers hereunder and under any other Loan Document with respect to its Commitment and its Loans as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Agent, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, at any time when the Agent is a Lender, unless the context otherwise indicates, include the Agent in its individual capacity.  The Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of trust, debt, equity or other transaction, in addition to those contemplated by this Agreement or any other Loan Document, with Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries in which Borrower or such Subsidiary is not restricted hereby from engaging with any other Person.  The Agent in its individual capacity is not obligated to remain a Lender.

10.11         Lender Credit Decision.  Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender and based on the financial statements prepared by Borrower and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.  Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

37

10.12         Successor Agent.  The Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and Borrower, such resignation to be effective upon the appointment of a successor Agent or, if no successor Agent has been appointed, forty-five days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its intention to resign.  The Agent may be removed at any time with or without cause by written notice received by the Agent from the Required Lenders, such removal to be effective on the date specified by the Required Lenders.  Upon any such resignation or removal, (a) the Agent that has resigned or been removed shall no longer receive the administrative agent fees previously agreed to by Borrower and the Agent and (b) the Required Lenders shall have the right (with, so long as no Default or Unmatured Default exists with respect to Borrower, the consent of Borrower, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to appoint, on behalf of Borrower and the Lenders, a successor Agent.  If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders within thirty days after the resigning Agent’s giving notice of its intention to resign, then the resigning Agent may appoint, on behalf of Borrower and the Lenders, a successor Agent.  Notwithstanding the previous sentence, the Agent may at any time without the consent of any Lender but with the consent of Borrower, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, appoint any of its Affiliates which is a commercial bank as a successor Agent hereunder.  If the Agent has resigned or been removed and no successor Agent has been appointed, the Lenders may perform all the duties of the Agent hereunder and Borrower shall make all payments in respect of their respective Obligations to the applicable Lender and for all other purposes shall deal directly with the Lenders.  No successor Agent shall be deemed to be appointed hereunder until such successor Agent has accepted the appointment.  Any such successor Agent shall be a commercial bank having capital and retained earnings of at least $100,000,000.  Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the resigning or removed Agent.  Upon the effectiveness of the resignation or removal of the Agent, the resigning or removed Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the Loan Documents.  After the effectiveness of the resignation or removal of an Agent, the provisions of this Article X shall continue in effect for the benefit of such Agent in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as the Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents.  In the event that there is a successor to the Agent (by merger or resignation or removal), or the Agent assigns its duties and obligations to an Affiliate pursuant to this Section 10.12, then the term “Prime Rate” as used in this Agreement shall mean the prime rate, base rate or other analogous rate of the new Agent.

10.13         Agent’s Fee.  Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent, for the Agent’s own account, the fees agreed to by Borrower and the Agent.

10.14         Delegation to Affiliates.  Borrower and the Lenders agree that the Agent may delegate any of its duties under this Agreement to any of its Affiliates.  Any such Affiliate (and such Affiliate’s directors, officers, agents and employees) which performs duties in connection with this Agreement shall be entitled to the same benefits of the indemnification, waiver and other protective provisions to which the Agent is entitled under Articles IX and X.

10.15         Other Agents.  None of the Lenders identified on the cover page or signature pages of this Agreement (collectively, the “Other Agents”) shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than those applicable to all Lenders.  Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any of the Other Agents in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or refraining from taking any action hereunder or pursuant hereto.

38

ARTICLE XI

SETOFF; RATABLE PAYMENTS

11.1         Setoff.  In addition to, and without limitation of, any rights of the Lenders under applicable law, if Borrower becomes insolvent, however evidenced, or any Default occurs with respect to Borrower, any and all deposits (including all account balances, whether provisional or final and whether or not collected or available) and any other Indebtedness at any time held or owing by any Lender or any Affiliate of any Lender to or for the credit or account of Borrower may be offset and applied toward the payment of the Obligations of Borrower owing to such Lender, whether or not the Obligations, or any part thereof, shall then be due.

11.2         Ratable Payments.  If any Lender, whether by setoff or otherwise, has payment made to it upon the outstanding Loans made by it (other than payments received pursuant to Section 3.1, 3.2, 3.4 or 3.5) in a greater proportion than that received by any other Lender, such Lender agrees, promptly upon demand, to purchase a portion of the outstanding Loans made by the other Lenders so that after such purchase each Lender will hold its ratable proportion of all of such Borrower’s outstanding Loans.  If any Lender, whether in connection with setoff or amounts which might be subject to setoff or otherwise, receives collateral or other protection for the outstanding Loans made by it or such amounts which may be subject to setoff, such Lender agrees, promptly upon demand, to take such action necessary such that all Lenders share in the benefits of such collateral ratably in proportion to the outstanding Loans made by each of them.  In case any such payment is disturbed by legal process, or otherwise, appropriate further adjustments shall be made.

ARTICLE XII

BENEFIT OF AGREEMENT; PARTICIPATIONS; Assignments

12.1         Successors and Assigns.  The terms and provisions of the Loan Documents shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower and the Lenders and their respective successors and assigns, except that (a) the Borrower shall not have the right to assign its rights or obligations under the Loan Documents and (b) any assignment by any Lender must be made in compliance with Section 12.3.  The parties to this Agreement acknowledge that clause (b) of the preceding sentence relates only to absolute assignments and does not prohibit assignments creating security interests, including any pledge or assignment by any Lender of all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and any Note to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment creating a security interest shall release the transferor Lender from its obligations hereunder unless and until the parties thereto have complied with the provisions of Section 12.3.  The Agent may treat the Person which made any Loan or which holds any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes hereof unless and until such Person complies with Section 12.3; provided that the Agent may in its discretion (but shall not be required to) follow instructions from the Person which made any Loan or which holds any Note to direct payments relating to such Loan or Note to another Person.  Any assignee of the rights to any Loan or any Note agrees by acceptance of such assignment to be bound by all the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents.  Any request, authority or consent of any Person, who at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent is the owner of the rights to any Loan (whether or not a Note has been issued in evidence thereof), shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder or assignee of the rights to such Loan.

39

12.2         Participations.

12.2.1           Permitted Participants; Effect.  Upon giving notice to but without obtaining the consent of Borrower, any Lender may, in the ordinary course of its business and in accordance with applicable law, at any time sell to one or more banks or other entities (“Participants”) participating interests in any Obligations owing to such Lender, any Note held by such Lender, any Commitment of such Lender or any other interest of such Lender under the Loan Documents.  In the event of any such sale by a Lender of participating interests to a Participant, such Lender’s obligations under the Loan Documents shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, such Lender shall remain the owner of the Obligations owing to such Lender and the holder of any Note issued to it for all purposes under the Loan Documents, all amounts payable by Borrower under this Agreement shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participating interests, and Borrower, the 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 the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, a Participant may not include a natural Person, Borrower or any Affiliate or Subsidiary of Borrower.

12.2.2           Voting Rights.  Each Lender shall retain the sole right to approve, without the consent of any Participant, any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents other than any amendment, modification or waiver which extends the Termination Date or the final maturity of any Loan in which such Participant has an interest or forgives all or any portion of the principal amount thereof, or reduces the rate or extends the time of payment of interest thereon.

12.2.3           Benefit of Setoff.  Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of setoff provided in Section 11.1 in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under the Loan Documents to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under the Loan Documents, provided that each Lender shall retain the right of setoff provided in Section 11.1 with respect to the amount of participating interests sold to each Participant.  The Lenders agree to share with each Participant, and each Participant, by exercising the right of setoff provided in Section 11.1, agrees to share with each Lender, any amount received pursuant to the exercise of its right of setoff, such amounts to be shared in accordance with Section 11.2 as if each Participant were a Lender.

12.3         Assignments.

12.3.1           Permitted Assignments.  

(a)          Any Lender may, in the ordinary course of its business and in accordance with applicable law, at any time assign to one or more banks or other entities (“Purchasers”) all or any part of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents.  Such assignment shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit C or in such other form as may be agreed to by the parties to such assignment.  The consent of Borrower and the Agent shall be required prior to an assignment becoming effective with respect to a Purchaser which is not a Lender or an Affiliate thereof; provided that if a Default exists, the consent of Borrower shall not be required.  Any such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, provided that Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to such assignment unless Borrower shall object thereto by written notice to the Agent within five (5) Business Days after having received notice thereof.  Borrower shall receive prior written notice by the assigning Lender prior to an assignment becoming effective with respect to a Purchaser which is a Lender or an Affiliate thereof.  Each such assignment with respect to a Purchaser which is not a Lender or an Affiliate thereof shall (unless each of the Borrower and the Agent otherwise consent) be in an amount not less than the lesser of (i)

40

$5,000,000 or (ii) the amount of outstanding Loans.  Each assignment shall be of a constant, and not a varying, percentage of all of the assigning Lender’s interests in the Obligations of, and Commitment to, the Borrower.

(b)          No such assignment shall be made to (i) any natural Person or (ii) the Borrower or the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries.

12.3.2           Effect; Effective Date.

(a)          Upon (i) delivery to the Agent of a duly executed Assignment Agreement, together with any consents required by Section 12.3.1, (ii) payment of a $3,500 fee to the Agent for processing such assignment (unless such fee is waived by the Agent), and (iii) the execution of the Assignment Agreement by the Agent and, if required, Borrower, such Assignment Agreement shall become effective on the effective date specified in such Assignment Agreement.  On and after the effective date of such Assignment Agreement, such Purchaser shall for all purposes be a Lender party to this Agreement and any other Loan Document executed by or on behalf of the Lenders and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Lender under the Loan Documents, to the same extent as if it were an original party hereto, and no further consent or action by Borrower, the Lenders or the Agent shall be required to release the transferor Lender with respect to the percentage of the Aggregate Commitment and Obligations assigned to such Purchaser.  Any Person that is at any time a Lender and that thereafter ceases to be a Lender pursuant to the terms of this Section 12.3.2 shall continue to be entitled to the benefit of those provisions of this Agreement that, pursuant to the terms hereof, survive the termination hereof.  Upon the consummation of any assignment to a Purchaser pursuant to this Section 12.3.2, the transferor Lender, the Agent and Borrower shall, if the transferor Lender or the Purchaser desires that its Loans be evidenced by Notes, make appropriate arrangements so that new Notes or, as appropriate, replacement Notes are issued to such transferor Lender and new Notes or, as appropriate, replacement Notes, are issued to such Purchaser.

12.4         Dissemination of Information.  Borrower authorizes each Lender to disclose to any Participant or any other Person acquiring an interest in the Loan Documents by operation of law (each a “Transferee”) and any prospective Transferee any and all information in such Lender’s possession concerning the creditworthiness of Borrower and its Subsidiaries, including any information contained in any Public Reports; provided that each Transferee and prospective Transferee agrees to be bound by Section 9.11 of this Agreement.

12.5         Grant of Funding Option to SPC.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an “SPC”), identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Agent and Borrower, the option to provide to Borrower all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to Borrower pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (a) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to make any Loan and (b) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof.  The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender.  Each party hereto agrees that no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement (all liability for which shall remain with the Granting Lender).  In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior indebtedness of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement,

41

insolvency or liquidation proceeding under the laws of the United States or any State thereof.  In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 12.5, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, Borrower and the Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loan to the Granting Lender or to any financial institution (consented to by Borrower and the Agent) providing liquidity and/or credit support to or for the account of such SPC to support the funding or maintenance of Loans and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC.

12.6         Tax Treatment.  If any interest in any Loan Document is transferred to any Transferee which is organized under the laws of any jurisdiction other than the United States or any State thereof, the transferor Lender shall cause such Transferee, concurrently with the effectiveness of such transfer, to comply with the provisions of Section 3.5(d).

THIS CONSENT (this “Consent”) is made and entered into as of May 5, 2010 by and among Pepco Holdings, Inc. (“PHI”), Potomac Electric Power Company (“Pepco”), Delmarva Power & Light Company (“DPL”) and Atlantic City Electric Company (“ACE”, and together with PHI, Pepco and DPL, the “Borrowers”), the financial institutions identified on the signature pages hereof, and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as successor by merger to Wachovia Bank, National Association, as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”).

WHEREAS, certain financial institutions (the “Lenders”) have extended certain credit facilities to the Borrowers pursuant to that certain Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of May 2, 2007 (as amended or otherwise modified from time to time pursuant to the terms thereof, the “Credit Agreement”), among the Borrowers, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings provided in the Credit Agreement;

WHEREAS, PHI wishes to sell or otherwise dispose of all of the assets that for financial reporting purposes are included in PHI’s Conectiv Energy segment (the “Conectiv Energy Segment”) through (i) the sale of Conectiv Energy Holding Company, LLC, an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of PHI that owns the wholesale power generation operations of PHI’s Conectiv Energy Segment (“CEHC”), pursuant to a Purchase Agreement, dated as of April 20, 2010, by and among PHI, Conectiv, LLC, CEHC and New Development Holdings, LLC (the “Purchase Agreement”); and (ii) the disposition of the balance of the assets of the Conectiv Energy Segment through the liquidation of Conectiv Energy’s energy trading portfolio and all of its other assets (collectively, the “Conectiv Energy Segment Sale”);

WHEREAS, subject to certain exceptions, Section 6.11 of the Credit Agreement prohibits PHI or any of its Subsidiaries from leasing, selling or otherwise disposing of any assets;

WHEREAS, the Credit Agreement contains an exception to the prohibition on asset sales by PHI and its Subsidiaries if the aggregate book value of all assets sold or disposed of in any fiscal year (other than assets sold in the ordinary course of business or pursuant to other exceptions to Section 6.11 of the Credit Agreement) does not exceed a Substantial Portion of the Property of PHI; and

WHEREAS, the aggregate book value of the Conectiv Energy Segment exceeds a Substantial Portion of the Property of PHI and accordingly, the Borrowers have requested that the Required Lenders consent to the Conectiv Energy Segment Sale.

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged by the parties hereto, such parties agree as follows:

1.          Consents. Pursuant to Section 8.2 of the Credit Agreement, the Required Lenders hereby consent to and agree to permit the Conectiv Energy Segment Sale and agree that the Conectiv Energy Segment Sale shall be in addition to, and shall not alter, affect or limit the exceptions set forth in Section 6.11 of the Credit Agreement that permit other sales or dispositions of assets by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

2.          Miscellaneous. This Consent is a one-time consent and it does not modify or affect the obligations of the Borrowers to comply fully with all terms, conditions and covenants contained in the Credit Agreement. Nothing contained in this Consent, except as expressly provided herein, shall be deemed to constitute a waiver of any rights or remedies the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have under the Credit Agreement or applicable law. The Credit Agreement shall remain in full force and

effect according to its terms (except as modified by this Consent). This Consent shall be construed in accordance with the internal laws (including Section 5.1401 of the General Obligations Law, but otherwise without regard to the conflict of laws provisions thereof) of the State of New York, but giving effect to federal laws applicable to national banks. This Consent shall constitute a Loan Document and 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 shall be binding upon all parties, their successors and assigns, and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. A facsimile, telecopy, or other reproduction of this Consent may be executed by one or more parties hereto, and an executed copy of this Consent may be delivered by one or more parties hereto by facsimile or similar instantaneous electronic transmission device pursuant to which the signature of or on behalf of such party can be seen, and such execution and delivery shall be considered valid, binding and effective for all purposes.
