PRICING GRID FOR TRANCHE E TERM LOANS,
REVOLVING CREDIT LOANS AND SWING LINE LOANS

	Applicable Margin for Eurodollar						Applicable Margin for Base Rate
	Loans						Loans
				Revolving Credit						Revolving Credit
				Loans and Swing						Loans and Swing
Consolidated Leverage Ratio	Term Loans			Line Loans			Term Loans			Line Loans
> 5.25 to 1.00		2.75	%		4.50	%		1.75	%		3.50	%
< 5.25 to 1.00 and > 4.50 to 1.00		2.75	%		4.00	%		1.75	%		3.00	%

     The above Applicable Margins shall be reduced by 0.25% if the Borrower has obtained a senior secured bank loan rating from Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. of B2 or better and a senior secured bank loan rating from Standard & Poor’s Ratings Group of B or better, effective as of the day after the date on which such ratings are obtained.

     Changes in the Applicable Margin with respect to Tranche E Term Loans, Revolving Credit Loans and Swing Line Loans resulting from changes in the Consolidated Leverage Ratio shall become effective on the date (the “Adjustment Date”) on which financial statements are delivered to the Lenders pursuant to Sections 6.1(a) and (b) (but in any event not later than the 45th day after the end of each of the first three quarterly periods of each fiscal year or the 90th day after the end of each fiscal year, as the case may be) and shall remain in effect until the next change to be effected pursuant to this paragraph. If any financial statements referred to above are not delivered within the time periods specified above, then, until such financial statements are delivered, the Consolidated Leverage Ratio as at the end of the fiscal period that would have been covered thereby shall for the purposes of this definition be deemed to be greater than 5.25 to 1.00. Each determination of the Consolidated Leverage Ratio pursuant to this Pricing Grid shall be made with respect to the period of four consecutive fiscal quarters of the Borrower ending at the end of the period covered by the relevant financial statements.

     (aa) Exhibit G-1 to the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by deleting the words “Tranche D” in each place they appear therein and replacing them with the words “Tranche E”.

2. New Term Loans

     (a) The “Tranche E Term Loan Commitment” of (i) any Continuing Lender shall be the principal amount of its then outstanding Tranche D Term Loans or such lesser amount as is determined by the Administrative Agent and notified to such Lender prior to the Amendment Effective Date and (ii) any Additional Lender shall be the amount of such commitment set forth in the Lender Addendum delivered by such Lender or such lesser amount as is allocated to it by the Administrative Agent and notified to it prior to the Amendment Effective Date. The aggregate amount of Tranche E Term Loan Commitments

7

shall equal the aggregate principal amount of the Tranche D Term Loans outstanding immediately prior to the Amendment Effective Date plus $50,000,000.

     (b) The Borrower shall deliver to give the Administrative Agent irrevocable notice of borrowing (which notice must be received by the Administrative Agent prior to 1:00 P.M., New York City time, one Business Day prior to the anticipated Amendment Effective Date) requesting that the Lenders with Tranche E Term Loan Commitments (as defined in Section 1(a)) make the Tranche E Term Loans (as defined in Section 1(a)) on the Amendment Effective Date and specifying the amount to be borrowed. Upon receipt of such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Tranche E Term Loan Lender thereof. Not later than 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on the Amendment Effective Date each Lender shall make available to the Administrative Agent at the Funding Office an amount in immediately available funds equal to the Tranche E Term Loans to be made by such Lender (or provide the Administrative Agent with a Conversion Notice with respect to its Tranche D Term Loans in lieu of such funding requirement). The Administrative Agent shall use the amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lenders to prepay the Tranche D Term Loans outstanding on such date. Tranche E Term Loan Commitments in existence on the Amendment Effective Date and not funded (including by way of conversion) on such date will terminate on such date. To the extent that Tranche D Term Loans are repaid with proceeds of Tranche E Term Loans, such Tranche D Term Loans shall be deemed to have been assigned and transferred to the Lenders with the Tranche E Term Loan Commitments (to be allocated amongst such Lenders at the Administrative Agent’s discretion notwithstanding Section 2.11 and Section 2.12 of the Credit Agreement) and thereafter shall be outstanding as Tranche E Term Loans held by Lenders subject to and in accordance with all terms, conditions and provisions of the Credit Agreement applicable to the Tranche E Term Loans.

     (c) All Tranche E Term Loans made (including by way of conversion) on the Amendment Effective Date will have the same Types (in the Lenders’ same amounts) as applicable at such time to the Tranche D Term Loans and will have initial Interest Periods ending on the same dates as the Interest Periods applicable at such time to the Tranche D Term Loans, and the Eurodollar Rate applicable to such Tranche E Term Loans during such initial Interest Periods will be the same as that applicable at such time to the Tranche D Term Loans being refinanced. No accrued interest on the Tranche D Term Loans converted into Tranche E Term Loans shall be payable on the Amendment Effective Date and no amounts under Section 2.21 of the Credit Agreement shall be payable in connection with such conversion.

     (d) The Required Lenders hereby waive the requirements of Section 2.11 of the Credit Agreement solely to the extent that such Section requires any notice of prepayment to be given in respect of the Tranche D Term Loans to be prepaid on the Amendment Effective Date. Notwithstanding that the Tranche D Term Loans shall be refinanced in full on the Amendment Effective Date, the provisions of the Credit Agreement with respect to Sections 2.19, 2.20, 2.21 and 10.6 will continue in full force and effect with respect to, and for the benefit of, each Lender in respect of such Lender’s Tranche D Term Loans existing under the Credit Agreement prior to the Amendment Effective Date.

     3. Conditions to Effectiveness.

     The effectiveness of the amendments contained in Section 1 hereof is conditioned upon satisfaction of the following conditions precedent (the date on which all such conditions have been satisfied being referred to herein as the “Amendment Effective Date”):

     (a) the Administrative Agent shall have received (i) signed written authorization from the Majority Facility Lenders with respect to the Tranche D Term Loan Facility and the US Revolving Credit Facility and the Additional Lenders to execute this Amendment on behalf of such Lenders, (ii) counterparts of this Amendment signed by each of WSCA, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent,

     (d) in consideration of this Amendment, the Borrower shall have paid to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender that executes and returns to the Administrative Agent its consent no later than 5:00 p.m. (New York time) on April 11, 2007, a fee equal to 0.05% of such Lender’s Aggregate Exposure (determined prior to giving effect to this Amendment);

     (e) the Administrative Agent shall have received executed legal opinions from counsel to the Loan Parties, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent;
