NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
(In thousands, except per share and percent data)

Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

     Organization — MasterCard Incorporated and its consolidated subsidiaries, including MasterCard International Incorporated (“MasterCard International”) and MasterCard Europe sprl (“MasterCard Europe”) (together, “MasterCard” or the “Company”), provide transaction processing and related services to customers principally in support of their credit, deposit access (debit), electronic cash and Automated Teller Machine (“ATM”) payment programs, and travelers cheque programs.

     Consolidation and basis of presentation — The Company follows accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to 2004 classifications. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of MasterCard and its majority-owned or controlled entities. Intercompany transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

     The Company consolidates majority-owned or controlled entities, including variable interest entities. Minority interest is recorded for consolidated entities in which the Company owns less than 100% of the interest. Minority interest represents the equity interest not owned by the Company.

     The consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 and as of June 30, 2004 are unaudited, and in the opinion of management include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) that are necessary to present fairly the results for interim periods. Due to seasonal fluctuations and other factors, the results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

     The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements are presented in accordance with the requirements of Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and, consequently, do not include all of the disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. Reference should be made to the Company’s 2003 Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional disclosures, including a summary of the Company’s significant accounting policies.

Note 2. Supplemental Cash Flows

     The following table includes supplemental cash flow disclosures for the periods:

	Six Months
	Ended June 30,
	2004		2003
Cash paid for income taxes	$	27,014	$	991
Cash paid for interest		8,517		8,363
Non-cash investing and financing activities:
Consolidation of variable interest entity:
Municipal bonds held-to-maturity		—		(154,000	)
Long-term debt		—		149,380
Minority interest		—		4,620
Sale-leaseback transaction:
Capital lease obligation		—		32,627
Bonds held-to-maturity		—		(32,627	)

     On January 1, 2003, the Company adopted the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation Number No. 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” (“FIN 46”) and consolidated the MasterCard International O’Fallon 1999 Trust (the “Trust”) on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet, which resulted in recording $154,000 in municipal bonds held by the Trust, $149,380 in long-term debt and $4,620 of minority interest relating to the equity in the Trust held by a third party. The Trust financed the Company’s global technology and operations facility located in O’Fallon, Missouri, named Winghaven, through a combination of a third party equity investment and the issuance of 7.36 percent Series A Senior Secured Notes (the “Secured Notes”) in the amount of $149,380 due September 1, 2009. The redemption value of the minority interest approximates its carrying value. The minority interest will be redeemed by the minority interest holders upon the maturity of the Secured Notes. MasterCard

International has a guarantee of 85.15 percent for the Secured Notes outstanding totaling $127,197 at June 30, 2004. Additionally, upon the occurrence of specific events of default, MasterCard International guarantees repayment of the total outstanding principal and interest on the Secured Notes and would hold ownership of the facility.

Note 4. Acquisition of Europay International (“EPI”)

     On June 28, 2002, MasterCard Incorporated issued 23,760 shares of its common stock to the shareholders of EPI and MasterCard Europay U.K. Limited (“MEPUK”), in return for directly and indirectly acquiring 100% of the shares of EPI not previously owned by MasterCard International. However, of the 23,760 shares issued, only 17,610 were considered to be issued unconditionally. The purchase price for EPI was based on the estimated value of the unconditional shares only, and this estimated value was determined on the basis of an independent valuation. Considering this valuation and the 17,610 unconditional shares issued, the purchase price of EPI was $267,856, excluding estimated acquisition costs of $10,486 that were incurred by the Company.

     In calculating the purchase price of EPI, the Company considered only the unconditional shares issued to the former shareholders of EPI and MEPUK because the agreement relating to the EPI acquisition provides that the number of shares allocated to these shareholders will potentially increase or decrease at the end of a three-year transition period as a result of the application of a global proxy formula for the third year of the transition period. Of the 23,760 shares attributable to the exchange of EPI and MEPUK shares, 6,150 shares are conditional shares subject to reallocation at the end of the transition period. EPI and MEPUK shareholders therefore received 17,610 unconditional shares at closing.

     Since former EPI and MEPUK shareholders would retain or receive additional shares of MasterCard Incorporated at the end of the transition period without remitting any additional consideration, any shares retained or received by them that are above their minimum allocation at that time would constitute a part of the purchase price. Any such additional shares will be valued at that time based upon the fair value of the stock of MasterCard Incorporated. Any such reallocation of shares to former EPI and MEPUK shareholders will increase the purchase price for EPI and, accordingly, the amount of goodwill and additional paid-in capital recorded.

     Included in the liabilities assumed in the acquisition was a liability for exit costs relating to the integration of the Company and EPI (now MasterCard Europe). The changes in the liability for exit costs are summarized as follows:

				Redundant

Note 5. Goodwill

     The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill since December 31, 2003 are as follows:

Balance as of December 31, 2003	$	187,881
Acquisition of businesses, net of tax		20,225
Foreign currency translation		(4,211	)
Other		(105	)
Balance as of June 30, 2004	$	203,790

     In February 2004, the Company acquired a research and advisory firm focused exclusively on the global financial services industry. In May 2004, the Company acquired a consulting firm specializing in the optimization of customer relationships. These acquisitions did not have a material impact on the Company’s operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004.

Note 6. Other Intangible Assets

     The following table sets forth gross and net intangible assets, other than goodwill:

	June 30, 2004							December 31, 2003
	Gross					Net		Gross					Net
	Carrying		Accumulated			Carrying		Carrying		Accumulated			Carrying

Unamortizable intangible assets:
Customer relationships		178,194		—			178,194		182,419		—			182,419
Total	$	508,635	$	(191,869	)	$	316,766	$	486,568	$	(158,938	)	$	327,630

     Additions to capitalized software primarily relate to internal projects associated with system enhancements or infrastructure improvements offset by the translation of capitalized software denominated in foreign currency. MasterCard’s acquisitions during the first six months of 2004 discussed in Note 5 herein resulted in an increase in trademarks and tradenames in the amount of $2,650 and other amortizable intangible assets, including covenants not to compete, customer lists and a research library, in the amount of $7,548. Amortizable trademarks and tradenames and unamortizable customer relationships include assets which are denominated in foreign currency. As such, a component of the net change in these intangible assets is attributable to foreign currency translation. In particular, customer relationships assumed in the acquisition of EPI on June 28, 2002 decreased by $4,225 during the first six months of 2004.

     Amortization expense on the assets above was $18,358 and $16,887 for the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively, and $36,505 and $33,735 for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Impairment losses on capitalized software were nominal in both periods.

     The following table sets forth the estimated future amortization expense on amortizable intangible assets:

For the six months ending December 31, 2004	$	36,527
For the year ending December 31, 2005		51,853
For the year ending December 31, 2006		33,121

Note 7. Pension Plans

     The Company maintains a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan with a cash balance feature covering substantially all of its U.S. employees. Additionally, the Company has an unfunded nonqualified supplemental executive retirement plan that provides certain key employees with supplemental retirement benefits in excess of limits imposed on qualified plans by U.S. tax laws.

     The funded status of the qualified plan exceeds minimum funding requirements. The Company does not expect to make any significant contributions to its pension plans in 2004.

Note 8. Postretirement Health and Life Insurance Benefits

     The Company maintains a postretirement plan providing health coverage and life insurance benefits for substantially all of its U.S. employees and retirees.

     In May 2004, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. FAS 106-2, “Accounting and Disclosure Requirements Related to the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003” (“FSP 106-2”). FSP 106-2 requires (a) that the effects of the federal subsidy be considered an actuarial gain and recognized in the same manner as other actuarial gains and losses and (b) certain disclosures for employers that sponsor postretirement benefit plans that provide prescription drug benefits. The Company has determined that the enactment of the Medicare Modernization Act was not a significant event with respect to its plans, and accordingly, as required by FSP 106-2, the effects of the Act will be incorporated into our December 31, 2004 measurement of the plan’s benefit obligations.

Note 9. Credit Facility

     On June 18, 2004, the Company entered into a committed unsecured $1,950,000 revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with certain financial institutions, which expires on June 17, 2005. Borrowings under the facility are available to provide liquidity in the event of one or more settlement failures by MasterCard International members and, subject to a limit of $300,000, for general corporate purposes. The Credit Facility replaced MasterCard Incorporated’s prior $1,200,000 credit facility which expired on June 18, 2004. Interest on borrowings under the Credit Facility is charged at the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus 28 basis points. An additional 10 basis points would be applied if the aggregate borrowings under the Credit Facility were to exceed 33% of the commitments. MasterCard agreed to pay a facility fee which varies based on MasterCard’s credit rating and is currently equal to 7 basis points on the total commitment. MasterCard was in compliance with the Credit Facility covenants as of June 30, 2004. There were no borrowings under the Credit Facility at June 30, 2004. The majority of Credit Facility lenders are members or affiliates of members of MasterCard International.

     MasterCard Europe has cancelled an uncommitted credit agreement totaling 30,000 euros as of June 30, 2004.

Note 10. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

     The future minimum payments under non-cancelable operating or capital leases for office buildings and equipment, sponsorships and licensing and other agreements at June 30, 2004 are as follows:

     Consolidated rental expense for the Company’s office space was approximately $8,042 and $7,157, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 and $15,917 and $14,321 for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Consolidated lease expense for automobiles, computer equipment and office equipment was $2,722 and $2,286 for the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively, and $5,266 and $4,605, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively.

     MasterCard licenses certain software to its customers. The license agreements contain guarantees under which the Company indemnifies licensees from any adverse judgments arising from claims of intellectual property infringement by third parties. The terms of the guarantees are equal to the terms of the license to which they relate. The amount of the guarantees are limited to damages, losses, costs, expenses or other liabilities incurred by the licensee as a result of any intellectual property rights claims. The Company does not generate significant revenues from software licensing. The fair value of the guarantees is estimated to be negligible.

Note 11. U.S. Merchant Lawsuit and Other Legal Settlements

     During 2003, MasterCard settled the U.S. merchant lawsuit described in Note 13 herein and contract disputes with certain customers. MasterCard International signed a Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU”) with plaintiffs in the U.S. merchant lawsuit on April 30, 2003. On June 4, 2003, MasterCard International and plaintiffs signed a settlement agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”) embodying the terms originally set forth in the MOU. The Settlement Agreement required the Company to pay $125,000 in 2003 and requires it to pay $100,000 annually in December from 2004 through 2012. In addition, the Company adopted rules which permit U.S. merchants to elect not to accept MasterCard branded debit (or credit) cards, implemented programs to allow merchants to identify debit cards, provide signage to merchants and established a separate debit interchange rate for a required period. For a description of interchange, see the text under the heading “Global Interchange Proceedings” in Note 13.

     For the year ended December 31, 2003, the total pre-tax charge recorded for the U.S. merchant lawsuit and other legal settlements was $763,460. The primary component of this charge was made in connection with the signing of the MOU, for which MasterCard recorded a pre-tax charge of $721,000 ($469,000 after-tax) in the six months ended June 30, 2003, consisting of (i) the monetary amount of the U.S. merchant lawsuit settlement (discounted at 8 percent over the payment term), (ii) certain additional costs in connection with, and in order to comply with, other requirements of the U.S. merchant lawsuit settlement, and (iii) costs to address the merchants who opted not to participate in the plaintiff class in the U.S. merchant lawsuit. This amount was an estimate, which was revised during the three months ended December 31, 2003 based on approval of the Settlement Agreement by the court and other factors. The Company continued to review these estimates and made an additional charge of $3,896 during the three months ended June 30, 2004. If necessary, future refinements to the charge will also be made. Payments relating to these settlements and costs of $5,250 and $11,351 were made during the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively. Included in interest expense is imputed interest on the U.S. merchant lawsuit settlement of $12,674 and $14,079 for the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively, and $25,096 and $14,079 for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively.

     As noted above and described further in Note 13, several lawsuits have been commenced by merchants who have opted not to participate in the plaintiff class in the U.S. merchant lawsuit. The “opt out” merchant lawsuits are not covered by the terms of the Settlement Agreement.

Note 12. Income Tax

     The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 was 27.1% and 31.7%, respectively, compared to 35.3% in each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2003. The decrease in the rate in 2004 is primarily attributable to discrete items that occurred in the second quarter. The primary discrete items were the favorable settlement and reassessment of various tax controversies and the filing and recognition of refund claims, partially offset by an increase in the valuation allowance for the future realization of a benefit from a capital loss carryover. Absent the discrete items our effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 would have been 36.9% and 36.0%, respectively. The increase in the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 before discrete items is primarily attributable to a change in the geographic distribution of pretax income from taxable jurisdictions with lower rates to those with higher rates.

Note 13. Legal Proceedings

     MasterCard is a party to legal proceedings with respect to a variety of matters in the ordinary course of business. Except as described below, MasterCard does not believe that any legal proceedings to which it is a party would have a material impact on its results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.

Department of Justice Antitrust Litigation

     In October 1998, the United States Department of Justice (“DOJ”) filed suit against MasterCard International, Visa U.S.A., Inc. and Visa International Corp. in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York alleging that both MasterCard’s and Visa’s governance structure and policies violated U.S. federal antitrust laws. First, the DOJ claimed that “dual governance” — the situation where a financial institution has a representative on the board of directors of MasterCard or Visa while a portion of its card portfolio is issued under the brand of the other association — was anti-competitive and acted to limit innovation within the payment card industry. At the same time, the DOJ conceded that “dual issuance” — a term describing the structure of the bank card industry in the United States in which a single financial institution can issue both MasterCard and Visa-branded cards — was pro-competitive. Second, the DOJ challenged MasterCard’s Competitive Programs Policy (“CPP”) and a Visa bylaw provision that prohibit financial institutions participating in the respective associations from issuing competing proprietary payment cards (such as American Express or Discover). The DOJ alleged that MasterCard’s CPP and Visa’s bylaw provision acted to restrain competition.

     MasterCard denied the DOJ’s allegations. MasterCard believes that both “dual governance” and the CPP are pro-competitive and fully consistent with U.S. federal antitrust law.

     A bench trial concerning the DOJ’s allegations was concluded on August 22, 2000. On October 9, 2001, the District Court judge issued an opinion upholding the legality and pro-competitive nature of dual governance. In so doing, the judge specifically found that MasterCard and Visa have competed vigorously over the years, that prices to consumers have dropped dramatically, and that MasterCard has fostered rapid innovations in systems, product offerings and services.

     However, the judge also held that MasterCard’s CPP and the Visa bylaw constitute unlawful restraints of trade under the federal antitrust laws. The judge found that the CPP and Visa bylaw weakened competition and harmed consumers by preventing competing proprietary payment card networks such as American Express and Discover from entering into agreements with banks to issue cards on their networks. In reaching this decision, the judge found that two distinct markets — a credit and charge card issuing market and a network services market — existed in the United States, and that both MasterCard and Visa had market power in the network market. MasterCard strongly disputes these findings and believes that the DOJ failed, among other things, to demonstrate that U.S. consumers have been harmed by the CPP.

     On November 26, 2001, the judge issued a final judgment that orders MasterCard to repeal the CPP insofar as it applies to issuers and enjoins MasterCard from enacting or enforcing any bylaw, rule, policy or practice that prohibits its issuers from issuing general purpose credit or debit cards in the United States on any other general purpose card network. The judge also concluded that during the period in which the CPP was in effect, MasterCard was able to “lock up” certain members by entering into long-term agreements with them pursuant to which the members committed to maintain a certain percentage of their general purpose card volume, new card issuance or total number of cards in force in the United States on MasterCard’s network. Accordingly, the final judgment provides that there will be a period (commencing on the effective date of the judgment and ending on the later of two years from that date or two years from the resolution of any final appeal) during which MasterCard will be required to permit any issuer with which it entered into such an agreement prior to the effective date of the final judgment to terminate that agreement without penalty, provided that the reason for the termination is to permit the issuer to enter into an agreement with American Express or Discover. MasterCard would be free to apply to the District Court to recover funds paid but not yet earned under any terminated agreement. The final judgment imposes parallel requirements on Visa. The judge explicitly provided that MasterCard and Visa would be free to enter into new partnership or member business agreements in the future.

     MasterCard appealed the judge’s ruling with respect to the CPP and on February 6, 2002, the judge issued an order granting MasterCard’s and Visa’s motion to stay the final judgment pending appeal. On September 17, 2003 a three-judge panel of the Second Circuit issued its decision upholding the District Court’s decision. On January 9, 2004, the Second Circuit denied MasterCard’s petition for a rehearing en banc. On May 10, 2004, MasterCard filed a petition for certiorari with the Supreme Court. The District Court’s final judgment remains stayed pending a decision on MasterCard’s petition for a writ of certiorari to the Supreme Court.

(In thousands, except per share and percent data)

     In addition, on September 18, 2003, MasterCard filed a motion before the District Court judge in this case seeking to enjoin Visa, pending completion of the appellate process, from enforcing a newly-enacted bylaw requiring Visa’s 100 largest issuers of debit cards in the United States to pay a so-called “settlement service” fee if they reduce their Visa debit volume by more than 10%. This bylaw was later modified to clarify that the settlement service fee would only be imposed if an issuer shifted its portfolio of debit cards to MasterCard. Visa implemented this bylaw provision following the settlement of the U.S. merchant lawsuit described under the heading “U.S. Merchant Opt Out and Consumer Litigations” below. MasterCard believes that this bylaw is punitive and inconsistent with the status quo that the District Court judge in the DOJ case sought to preserve in her decision to stay her final judgment pending appeal, and would be inconsistent with the final judgment if it is preserved on appeal. On December 8, 2003, the District Court judge ruled that the District Court lacked jurisdiction to issue an injunction, but held that the court would have the authority to rescind contracts entered into by issuers with Visa during the time that the settlement service fee was in effect if the court’s final judgment is upheld on appeal and the court finds that the settlement service fee violates the final judgment. At this time it is not possible to determine the ultimate resolution of this matter.

Currency Conversion Litigations

     MasterCard International, together with Visa U.S.A., Inc. and Visa International Corp., are defendants in a state court lawsuit in California. The lawsuit alleges that MasterCard and Visa wrongfully imposed an asserted one percent currency conversion “fee” on every credit card transaction by U.S. MasterCard and Visa cardholders involving the purchase of goods or services in a foreign country, and that such alleged “fee” is unlawful. This action, titled Schwartz v. Visa Int’l Corp., et al., was brought in the Superior Court of California in February 2000, purportedly on behalf of the general public. Trial of the Schwartz matter commenced on May 20, 2002 and concluded on November 27, 2002. The Schwartz action claims that the alleged “fee” grossly exceeds any costs the defendants might incur in connection with currency conversions relating to credit card purchase transactions made in foreign countries and is not properly disclosed to cardholders. Plaintiffs seek to prevent defendants from continuing to engage in, use or employ the alleged practice of charging and collecting the asserted one percent currency conversion “fee” and from charging any type of purported currency conversion “fee” without providing a clear, obvious and comprehensive notice that a fee will be charged. Plaintiffs also request an order (1) requiring defendants to fund a corrective advertising campaign; and (2) awarding restitution of the monies allegedly wrongfully acquired by imposing the purported currency conversion “fee”. MasterCard denies these allegations.

     On April 8, 2003, the trial court judge issued a final decision in the Schwartz matter. In his decision, the trial judge found that MasterCard’s currency conversion process does not violate the Truth in Lending Act or regulations, nor is it unconscionably priced under California law. However, the judge found that the practice is deceptive under California state law, and ordered that MasterCard mandate that members disclose the currency conversion process to cardholders in cardholder agreements, applications, solicitations and monthly billing statements. As to MasterCard, the judge also ordered restitution to California cardholders. The judge issued a decision on restitution on September 19, 2003, which requires a traditional notice and claims process in which consumers have approximately six months to submit their claims. The court issued its final judgment on October 31, 2003 and on December 29, 2003, MasterCard appealed the judgment. MasterCard’s appeal brief was filed on July 28, 2004. The final judgment and restitution process have been stayed pending MasterCard’s appeal. With respect to restitution, MasterCard believes that it is likely to prevail on such appeal.

     In addition, MasterCard has been served with complaints in state courts in New York, Arizona, Texas, Florida, Arkansas, Kentucky, Illinois and Tennessee seeking to, in effect, extend the judge’s decision in the Schwartz matter to MasterCard cardholders outside of California. Some of these cases have been transferred to the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York and combined with the federal complaints in MDL No. 1409 discussed below. In other state court cases, MasterCard has moved to dismiss the claims. On December 12, 2003, the action in Kentucky was dismissed. On July 28, 2004, a New York state action was dismissed without prejudice.

     MasterCard International, Visa U.S.A., Inc., Visa International Corp., several member banks including Citibank (South Dakota), N.A., Citibank (Nevada), N.A., Chase Manhattan Bank USA, N.A., Bank of America, N.A. (USA), MBNA, and Diners Club are also defendants in a number of federal putative class actions that allege, among other things, violations of federal antitrust laws based on the asserted one percent currency conversion “fee”. Pursuant to an order of the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation, the federal complaints have been consolidated in MDL No. 1409 before Judge William H. Pauley III in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. In January 2002, the federal plaintiffs filed a Consolidated Amended Complaint (“MDL Complaint”) adding MBNA Corporation and MBNA America Bank, N.A. as defendants. This pleading asserts two theories of antitrust conspiracy under Section 1 of the Sherman Act, 15 U.S.C. §1: (i) an alleged “inter-association” conspiracy among MasterCard (together with its

14

MASTERCARD INCORPORATED
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
(In thousands, except per share and percent data)

members), Visa (together with its members) and Diners Club to fix currency conversion “fees” allegedly charged to cardholders of “no less than 1% of the transaction amount and frequently more;” and (ii) two alleged “intra-association” conspiracies, whereby each of Visa and MasterCard is claimed separately to have conspired with its members to fix currency conversion “fees” allegedly charged to cardholders of “no less than 1% of the transaction amount” and “to facilitate and encourage institution — and collection — of second tier currency conversion surcharges.” The MDL Complaint also asserts that the alleged currency conversion “fees” have not been disclosed as required by the Truth in Lending Act and Regulation Z.

     Defendants have moved to dismiss the MDL Complaint. On July 3, 2003, Judge Pauley issued a decision granting MasterCard’s motion to dismiss in part. Judge Pauley dismissed the Truth in Lending claims in their entirety as against MasterCard, Visa and several of the member bank defendants. Judge Pauley did not dismiss the antitrust claims. Discovery in this matter is expected to continue. On November 12, 2003 plaintiffs filed a motion for class certification. A trial date has been set for October 10, 2005. At this time, it is not possible to determine the ultimate resolution of this matter.

     For the reasons set forth above, no provision for losses has been provided in connection with these currency conversion litigations.

Merchant Chargeback-Related Litigations

     On May 12, 2003, a complaint alleging violations of federal and state antitrust laws, breach of contract, fraud and other theories was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California (Los Angeles) against MasterCard by a merchant aggregator whose customers include businesses selling adult entertainment content over the Internet. The complaint’s allegations focused on MasterCard’s past and potential future assessments on the plaintiff’s merchant bank (acquirer) for exceeding excessive chargeback standards in connection with the plaintiff’s transaction activity as well as the effect of MasterCard’s chargeback rules on “card-not-present” merchants. Chargebacks refer to a situation where a transaction is returned, or charged back to an acquirer by an issuer at the request of cardholders or for other reasons. Prior to MasterCard filing any motion or responsive pleading, the plaintiff filed a voluntary notice of dismissal without prejudice on December 5, 2003. On the same date, the plaintiff filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York making similar allegations to those made in its initial California complaint. MasterCard moved to dismiss all of the claims in the complaint for failure to state a cause of action. The Court has yet to schedule oral argument on the motion.

     In addition, on June 6, 2003, an action titled California Law Institute v. Visa U.S.A, et al. was initiated against MasterCard and Visa U.S.A., Inc. in the Superior Court of California, purportedly on behalf of the general public. Plaintiffs seek disgorgement, restitution and injunctive relief for unlawful and unfair business practices in violation of California Unfair Trade Practices Act Section 17200, et. seq. Plaintiffs purportedly allege that MasterCard’s (and Visa’s) chargeback fees are unfair and punitive in nature. Plaintiffs seek injunctive relief preventing MasterCard from continuing to engage in its chargeback practices and requiring MasterCard to provide restitution and/or disgorgement for monies improperly obtained by virtue of them. On August 13, 2003, MasterCard made motions seeking to dismiss the complaint in its entirety or, in the alternative, to narrow the scope of the proceeding and add necessary parties. Oral argument on the motions was held on October 27, 2003. The Court denied the motions. Initial, but limited, discovery is now proceeding in this matter.

     At this time it is not possible to determine the outcome of the merchant chargeback-related litigations. For reasons set forth above, no provision for losses has been provided in connection with these litigations.

U.S. Merchant Opt Out and Consumer Litigations

     Commencing in October 1996, several class action suits were brought by a number of U.S. merchants against MasterCard International and Visa U.S.A., Inc. challenging certain aspects of the payment card industry under U.S. federal antitrust law. Those suits were later consolidated in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York. The plaintiffs challenged MasterCard’s “Honor All Cards” rule (and a similar Visa rule), which requires merchants who accept MasterCard cards to accept for payment every validly presented MasterCard card. Plaintiffs claimed that MasterCard and Visa unlawfully tied acceptance of debit cards to acceptance of credit cards. In essence, the merchants desired the ability to reject off-line, signature-based debit transactions (for example, MasterCard card transactions) in favor of other payment forms including on-line, PIN-based debit transactions (for example, Maestro or regional ATM network transactions) which generally impose lower transaction costs for merchants. The plaintiffs also claimed that MasterCard and Visa conspired to monopolize what they characterized as the point-of-sale debit card market, thereby

15

MASTERCARD INCORPORATED
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
(In thousands, except per share and percent data)

suppressing the growth of regional networks such as ATM payment systems. Plaintiffs alleged that the plaintiff class had been forced to pay unlawfully high prices for debit and credit card transactions as a result of the alleged tying arrangement and monopolization practices. On June 4, 2003, MasterCard International signed the Settlement Agreement to settle the claims brought by the plaintiffs in this matter, which the Court approved on December 19, 2003. A number of class members have appealed the district court’s approval of the settlement to the Second Circuit Court of Appeals. These appeals are largely focused on the court’s attorneys’ fees award as well on the court’s ruling on the scope of the release. The Second Circuit has scheduled oral argument on these appeals for August 25, 2004. For a further description of the U.S. merchant lawsuit settlement, see Note 11.

     Several lawsuits have been commenced by merchants who have opted not to participate in the plaintiff class in the U.S. merchant lawsuit, including Best Buy Stores, CVS, Giant Eagle, Home Depot, Toys “R” Us and Darden Restaurants. The majority of these cases were filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York and we expect that all of these cases will be tried in that Court for, at minimum, pretrial issues. On December 31, 2003, MasterCard entered into an agreement to settle claims brought by an “opt out” merchant. On March 19, 2004, the opt out merchants amended their complaints to include allegations, among other things: (i) that MasterCard’s (and Visa’s) interchange fees contravene the Sherman Act and (ii) that the opt out merchants were harmed by MasterCard’s CPP. MasterCard filed its response to the amended complaints on April 21, 2004. On July 1, 2004, MasterCard and CVS entered into a settlement and release resolving CVS’s claims against MasterCard. On July 9, 2004, the District Court entered an order dismissing with prejudice CVS’s complaint against MasterCard. MasterCard continues to be involved in court-ordered mediation with the remaining opt out merchant plaintiffs while discovery continues to proceed.

     In addition, there are currently related actions against MasterCard International in 19 different state courts and the District of Columbia. In a number of state courts there are multiple complaints against MasterCard International brought under state unfair competition statutes on behalf of putative classes of consumers. The claims in these actions mirror the allegations made in the U.S. merchant lawsuit and assert that merchants, faced with excessive merchant discount fees, have passed these overcharges to consumers in the form of higher prices on goods and services sold. While these actions are in their early stages, MasterCard has filed motions to dismiss the complaints in a number of state courts for failure to state a cause of action. The Supreme Court in the State of New York and the Circuit Court for the State of Michigan have granted MasterCard’s motion to dismiss with prejudice. On June 21, 2004, the plaintiffs in the New York case filed a notice of appeal. The plaintiffs’ time in which to file an appeal of the Michigan court’s ruling is currently running. MasterCard is awaiting decisions on its motions to dismiss in the other state courts. At this time, it is not possible to determine the outcome of these consumer cases. Neither the consumer class actions nor the “opt out” merchant litigations are covered by the terms of the Settlement Agreement in the U.S. merchant lawsuit.

Global Interchange Proceedings

     Interchange fees represent a sharing of payment system costs among the financial institutions participating in a four-party payment card system such as MasterCard’s. Generally, interchange fees are paid by the merchant bank (the “acquirer”) to the cardholder bank (the “issuer”) in connection with transactions initiated with the payment system’s cards. These fees reimburse the issuer for a portion of the costs incurred by it in providing services which are of benefit to all participants in the system, including acquirers and merchants. MasterCard establishes a multilateral interchange fee (“MIF”) in certain circumstances as a default fee that applies when there is no other interchange fee arrangement between the issuer and the acquirer. MasterCard establishes a variety of MIF rates depending on such considerations as the location and the type of transaction, and collects the MIF on behalf of the institutions entitled to receive it. As described more fully below, MIFs are subject to regulatory or legal review and/or challenges in a number of jurisdictions.

     European Union. In September 2000, the European Commission issued a “Statement of Objections” challenging Visa International’s cross-border MIF under European Community competition rules. On July 24, 2002, the European Commission announced its decision to exempt the Visa MIF from these rules based on certain changes proposed by Visa to its MIF. Among other things, in connection with the exemption order, Visa agreed to adopt a cost-based methodology for calculating its MIF similar to the methodology employed by MasterCard, which considers the costs of certain specified services provided by issuers, and to reduce its MIF rates for debit and credit transactions to amounts at or below certain specified levels.

     On September 25, 2003, the European Commission issued a Statement of Objections challenging MasterCard Europe’s cross-border MIF. MasterCard Europe filed its response to this Statement of Objections on January 5, 2004. MasterCard Europe is engaged in discussions with the European Commission in order to determine under what conditions, if any, the European Commission would issue a favorable ruling regarding MasterCard Europe’s MIF. If MasterCard is unsuccessful in obtaining a favorable ruling, the

16

MASTERCARD INCORPORATED
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
(In thousands, except per share and percent data)

European Commission could issue a prohibition decision ordering MasterCard to change the manner in which it calculates its cross-border MIF. MasterCard could appeal such a decision to the European Court of Justice. Because the cross-border MIF constitutes an essential element of MasterCard Europe’s operations, changes to it could significantly impact MasterCard International’s European members and the MasterCard business in Europe. At this time, it is not possible to determine the ultimate resolution of this matter.

     United Kingdom Office of Fair Trading. On September 25, 2001, the Office of Fair Trading of the United Kingdom (“OFT”) issued a Rule 14 Notice under the U.K. Competition Act 1998 challenging the MasterCard MIF, the fee paid by acquirers to issuers in connection with point of sale transactions, and multilateral service fee (“MSF”), the fee paid by issuers to acquirers when a customer uses a MasterCard-branded card in the United Kingdom either at an ATM or over the counter to obtain a cash advance. The MIF and MSF are established by MasterCard U.K. Members Forum Limited (formerly MEPUK) (“MMF”) for domestic credit card transactions in the United Kingdom. The notice contained preliminary conclusions to the effect that the MasterCard U.K. MIF and MSF may infringe U.K. competition law and do not qualify for an exemption in their present forms. In January 2002, MasterCard, MEPUK and several MasterCard U.K. members responded to the notice. On February 11, 2003, the OFT issued a supplemental notice, which also contained preliminary conclusions challenging MasterCard’s U.K. MIF under the Competition Act. On May 2, 2003, MasterCard and MMF responded to the supplemental notice.

     MasterCard Europe and MMF are engaged in discussions with the OFT in order to determine under what conditions, if any, the OFT would issue a favorable ruling regarding the MasterCard U.K. MIF. If MasterCard and MMF are unsuccessful in obtaining a favorable ruling, the OFT could issue a prohibition decision ordering MasterCard to change the manner in which it calculates its U.K. MIF. Because the MIF constitutes an essential element of MasterCard’s U.K. operations, a negative decision by the OFT could have a significant adverse impact on MasterCard’s U.K. members and on MasterCard’s competitive position and overall business in the U.K. In the event of a negative decision by the OFT, MasterCard intends to appeal to the Competition Appeals Tribunal and to seek interim relief. At this time, it is not possible to determine the ultimate resolution of this matter.

     United States. In July 2002, a purported class action lawsuit was filed by a group of merchants in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California against MasterCard International, Visa U.S.A., Inc., Visa International Corp. and several member banks in California alleging, among other things, that MasterCard’s and Visa’s interchange fees contravene the Sherman Act. The suit seeks treble damages in an unspecified amount, attorney’s fees and injunctive relief, including the divestiture of bank ownership of MasterCard and Visa, and the elimination of MasterCard and Visa marketing activities. On March 4, 2004, the court dismissed the lawsuit with prejudice in reliance upon the approval of the Settlement Agreement in the U.S. merchant lawsuit by the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York, which held that the settlement and release in that case extinguished the claims brought by the merchant group in the present case. The plaintiffs have appealed the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York’s approval of the U.S. merchant settlement and release to the Second Circuit Court of Appeals and have also appealed the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California’s dismissal of the present lawsuit to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. At this time it is not possible to determine the outcome of this proceeding.

     Other Jurisdictions. MasterCard is aware that regulatory authorities in certain other jurisdictions, including Poland, Spain, New Zealand, Portugal and Switzerland are reviewing MasterCard’s and/or its members’ interchange fees and/or related practices and may seek to regulate the establishment of such fees and/or such practices. At this time it is not possible to determine the outcome of these proceedings.

Note 14. Settlement and Travelers Cheque Risk Management

     Settlement risk is the legal exposure due to the difference in timing between the payment transaction date and subsequent settlement. Settlement risk is estimated using the average daily card charges during the quarter multiplied by the estimated number of days to settle. The Company has global risk management policies and procedures, which include risk standards to provide a framework for managing the Company’s settlement exposure. MasterCard International’s rules generally guarantee the payment of MasterCard transactions and certain Cirrus and Maestro transactions between principal members. The term and amount of the guarantee are unlimited. Member-reported transaction data and the transaction clearing data underlying the settlement risk exposure calculation may be revised in subsequent reporting periods.

MASTERCARD INCORPORATED
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
(In thousands, except per share and percent data)

     In the event that MasterCard International effects a payment on behalf of a failed member, MasterCard International may seek an assignment of the underlying receivables. Subject to approval by the Board of Directors, members may be assessed for the amount of any settlement loss.

     MasterCard requires certain members that are not in compliance with the Company’s risk standards to post collateral, typically in the form of letters of credit and bank guarantees. This requirement is based on management review of the individual risk circumstances for each member that is out of compliance. In addition to these amounts, MasterCard holds collateral to cover: variability and future growth in member programs; the possibility that it may choose to pay merchants to protect brand integrity in the event of merchant bank (acquirer) failure, although it is not contractually obligated to do so; and Cirrus and Maestro related risk. MasterCard monitors its credit risk portfolio on a regular basis to estimate potential concentration risks and the adequacy of collateral on hand.

     Estimated settlement exposure, and the portion of the Company’s uncollateralized settlement exposure for MasterCard-branded transactions that relates to members that are deemed not to be in compliance with, or that are under review in connection with, the Company’s risk management standards, at June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003 was as follows:

	June 30,			December 31,
	2004			2003
MasterCard-branded transactions:
Gross legal settlement exposure	$	12,204,020		$	11,880,152
Collateral held for legal settlement exposure		(1,440,816	)		(1,344,621	)
Net uncollateralized settlement exposure	$	10,763,204		$	10,535,531
Uncollateralized settlement exposure attributable to non-compliant members	$	317,500		$	250,984
Cirrus and Maestro transactions:
Gross legal settlement exposure	$	678,089		$	591,317

     Although MasterCard holds collateral at the member level, the Cirrus and Maestro estimated settlement exposures are calculated at the regional level. Therefore, these settlement exposures are reported on a gross basis, rather than net of collateral.

     MasterCard’s estimated settlement exposure under the MasterCard brand, net of collateral, had concentrations of 57% and 58% in North America and 22% and 22% in Europe at June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively.

     A significant portion of the uncollateralized settlement exposure attributable to non-compliant members is concentrated in five members ($233,895) and three members ($157,955) at June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively. The increase in total uncollateralized exposure for all non-compliant members is mainly attributable to new risk standards that were established on January 1, 2004.

     MasterCard guarantees the payment of MasterCard-branded travelers cheques in the event of issuer default. The guarantee estimate is based on all outstanding MasterCard-branded travelers cheques, reduced by an actuarial determination of cheques that are not anticipated to be presented for payment. The term and amount of the guarantee are unlimited. MasterCard calculated its MasterCard-branded travelers cheques exposure under this guarantee as $1,228,658 and $1,205,921 at June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively.

     A significant portion of the Company’s credit risk is concentrated in one MasterCard travelers cheque issuer. MasterCard has obtained an unlimited guarantee estimated at $1,021,614 and $996,927 at June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively, from a financial institution that is a member, to cover all of the exposure of outstanding travelers cheques with respect to that issuer. In addition, MasterCard has obtained guarantees estimated at $33,390 and $32,101 at June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively, from financial institutions that are members in order to cover the exposure of outstanding travelers cheques with respect to another issuer. These guarantee amounts have also been reduced by an actuarial determination of cheques that are not anticipated to be presented for payment.

(In thousands, except per share and percent data)

     Based on the Company’s ability to assess its members for settlement and travelers cheque losses, the effectiveness of the Company’s global risk management policies and procedures, and the historically low level of losses that the Company has experienced, management believes the probability of future payments for settlement and travelers cheque losses in excess of existing reserves is negligible. However, if circumstances in the future change, they may require the Company to reassess whether it would be necessary to record an obligation for the fair value of some or all of its settlement and travelers cheque guarantees.

Note 15. Foreign Exchange Risk Management

     The Company enters into foreign exchange contracts to minimize risk associated with anticipated receipts and disbursements denominated in foreign currencies. We also enter into contracts to offset possible changes in value due to foreign exchange fluctuations of assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies. MasterCard’s forward contracts are classified by functional currency and summarized below:

U.S. Dollar Functional Currency

	June 30, 2004					December 31, 2003
			Estimated					Estimated
Forward Contracts	Notional		Fair Value			Notional		Fair Value
Commitments to purchase foreign currency	$	47,753	$	(647	)	$	64,147	$	595
Commitments to sell foreign currency		51,436		(299	)		60,162		(46	)

Euro Functional Currency

	June 30, 2004					December 31, 2003
			Estimated					Estimated
Forward Contracts	Notional		Fair Value			Notional		Fair Value
Commitments to purchase foreign currency	$	110,279	$	(1,599	)	$	178,030	$	(5,112	)

     The currencies underlying the foreign currency forward contracts consist primarily of euro, Canadian dollar, Japanese yen, U.K. pounds sterling, Swiss franc, and Mexican peso. The fair value of the foreign currency forward contracts generally reflects the estimated amounts that the Company would receive or (pay) to terminate the contracts at the reporting date based on broker quotes for the same or similar instruments. The terms of the foreign currency forward contracts are generally less than 18 months. The Company has deferred $1,514 and $3,069 of net losses in accumulated other comprehensive income as of June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively, all of which are expected to be reclassified to earnings within the next six months to provide an economic offset to the earnings impact of the anticipated cash flows hedged.

     The Company’s derivative financial instruments are subject to both credit and market risk. Credit risk is the risk of loss due to failure of a counterparty to perform its obligations in accordance with contractual terms. Market risk is the potential change in an investment’s value caused by fluctuations in interest and currency exchange rates, credit spreads or other variables. Credit and market risk related to derivative instruments were not material at June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003.

     Generally, the Company does not obtain collateral related to forward contracts because of the high credit ratings of the counter-parties that are members. The amount of accounting loss the Company would incur if the counterparties failed to perform according to the terms of the contracts is not considered material.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

     The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes of MasterCard Incorporated and its consolidated subsidiaries, including MasterCard International Incorporated (“MasterCard International”) and MasterCard Europe sprl (“MasterCard Europe”)(together, “MasterCard” or the “Company”) included elsewhere in this report. References to “we”, “our” and similar terms in the following discussion are references to the Company.

Forward-Looking Statements

     This Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. When used in this Report, the words “believe,” “expect,” “could,” “may,” “will” and similar words are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements relate to our future prospects, developments and business strategies. Many factors and uncertainties relating to our operations and business environment, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are outside of our control, influence whether any forward-looking statements can or will be achieved. Any one of those factors could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in writing in any forward-looking statements made by MasterCard or on its behalf. We believe there are certain risk factors that are important to our business, and these could cause actual results to differ from our expectations. Please see a complete discussion of these risk factors under the caption “Risk Factors” in Item 1 — Business of the Annual Report on Form 10-K of MasterCard for the year ended December 31, 2003.

Overview

     Revenues increased 16% in the second quarter of 2004 and for the six months ended June 30, 2004 from the comparable periods in 2003. Of this increase, 1% and 2%, respectively, was due to the weakening of the U.S. dollar against the euro in 2004 versus the comparable periods in 2003, which created a favorable foreign currency translation. Revenues are growing due to increases in the number of transactions processed and related volumes. We continue to experience favorable transaction and volume growth on cards carrying our brands due to consumers’ increasing preference for making electronic payments globally and as a result of our strategy to win incremental business from our key customers. In addition, the conflict in Iraq, the threat of terrorism and SARS negatively impacted cross border travel in the beginning of 2003. In 2004, our cross border transactions have increased significantly as international travel returns to more normal levels.

     We continue to focus on cost containment. Accordingly, operating expenses declined as a percentage of total revenues during 2004 from the comparable periods in 2003. We have focused our cost management efforts on our general and administrative expenses resulting in only a 1% increase from 2003. Excluding the impact of the U.S. merchant lawsuit and other legal settlements, our operating expenses increased 8% in the second quarter of 2004 and 6% for the six months ended June 30, 2004 from the comparable periods in 2003, of which 1% and 2%, respectively, was due to the weakening of the U.S. dollar against the euro creating an unfavorable currency translation. We realize the importance of building brand recognition, promoting brand acceptance, and enhancing the development of our programs and services. Therefore, advertising and marketing spending continue to increase.

     The payments industry is undergoing changes due to increased competition, consolidation and globalization. We are, and will continue to be, significantly dependent on our relationships with our issuers and acquirers and their further relationships with cardholders and merchants to support our programs and services. Most of our relationships with our customers are not exclusive and may be terminated at the convenience of our customers. The consolidation or merger of one or more of our customers with financial institutions aligned with our competitors could have a material adverse impact on our revenues.

     Our consolidated balance sheets reflect significant amounts of goodwill and intangible assets related to acquisitions we have made. Impairment charges could be incurred if operating results of these acquired entities do not meet our expectations.

20

     Legal and Regulatory Impact on our Business

     Our financial results have been and will continue to be significantly influenced by the legal and regulatory environment in which we operate our business. MasterCard is a party to several legal and regulatory proceedings, as discussed in Note 13 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included herein, which could have a material adverse impact on our business. In particular, any of the following outcomes to our legal and regulatory proceedings could adversely affect our results of operations and liquidity:

• if regulatory challenges to interchange fees, which we set for our customers under certain circumstances, are successful, our customers could reduce their use of payment programs carrying our brands, thereby negatively impacting our future revenues;

• if we ultimately are unsuccessful in our litigation with the U.S. Department of Justice concerning our Competitive Programs Policy, some of our customers may choose to do business with American Express or Discover, which could reduce our revenues;

• if we are unsuccessful in our state and federal lawsuits regarding our currency conversion practices, we could be required to change these practices, pay damages or provide other equitable relief, which could have an adverse impact on our results of operations;

• if we do not prevail in the lawsuits brought by merchants who have opted not to participate in the plaintiff class in the U.S. merchant lawsuit or in the related consumer cases, then we could be subject to damages, which could adversely impact our results of operations; and

• if we are unsuccessful in our litigations related to our chargeback rules, we could be forced to change our chargeback rules and pay damages, which could adversely affect our results of operations.

     See Note 13 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included herein for a discussion of these and other legal and regulatory proceedings to which we are a party.

     We earn a portion of our revenues in connection with MasterCard-branded offline debit cards issued in the United States. Following the settlement of the U.S. merchant lawsuit in 2003, Visa U.S.A., Inc. implemented a bylaw requiring Visa’s 100 largest issuers of debit cards in the United States to pay a fee if they reduce their debit volume by more than 10%. If Visa is permitted to enforce this bylaw, it would penalize Visa members seeking to do debit business with MasterCard and effectively prevent them from converting their debit cards to the MasterCard brand. MasterCard has challenged the validity of this bylaw provision. In addition, under the Settlement Agreement in the U.S. merchant lawsuit, merchants have the right to reject MasterCard-branded debit cards in the United States, while still accepting other MasterCard-branded cards and vice versa. These scenarios may be detrimental to MasterCard’s ability to maintain and grow its debit card business in the United States.

     Our functional currency is primarily the U.S. dollar except for MasterCard Europe, whose functional currency is the euro. Accordingly, our results of operations have been impacted by movements of the euro against the U.S. dollar. As the euro strengthened against the U.S. dollar during the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 compared to the same periods in 2003, MasterCard Europe’s revenue and expenses increased as a result of translation into U.S. dollar amounts. In addition, we assess our members for foreign currency denominated transactions based on the equivalent U.S. dollar volume of their card programs. Since the U.S. dollar devalued against most major currencies, our revenues increased accordingly.

Revenues

     Our revenues are generated from the fees that we charge our customers for providing transaction processing and other payment services, and from assessments calculated on the dollar volume of activity on cards carrying our brands. We establish standards and procedures for the acceptance and settlement of our customers’ transactions on a global basis. We do not issue cards, set fees, or determine the interest rates consumers will be charged on MasterCard-branded cards. Our issuing customers have the responsibility

22

for determining these and most other competitive card features. Our revenues are based upon transactional information accumulated by our systems and/or reported by our customers. Certain revenues are estimated based upon aggregate transaction information and historical and projected customer performance.

     The U.S. market remains our largest geographic market based on revenues, however, international revenues are growing at a faster rate than U.S. revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004. Revenue generated in the U.S. accounted for approximately 59% and 64% of our total revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively, and was 58% and 64% of our total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively.

     Operations Fees

     Operations fees primarily represent user fees for authorization, settlement and other payment services that facilitate transaction and information management among our customers on a global basis. Operations fees increased $44 million or 13% and $101 million or 15% in the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2003. The significant changes in operations fees were as follows:

	Dollar Change Increase (Decrease)
	(in millions)
	Three Months Ended			Six Months Ended
	June 30,			June 30,
	2004 vs. 2003			2004 vs. 2003
Authorization, settlement and switch	$	31		$	69
Currency conversion		15			25
Warning bulletins		(1	)		(4	)
Incentives and rebates		(6	)		(11	)
Excessive chargebacks		(9	)		(9	)
Other operations fees		14			31
	$	44		$	101

• Authorization, settlement and switch revenues increased primarily due to increased transactions processed through our systems of 12% in the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, as a result of economic recovery in various regions in which we do business. A portion of the increase in transactions is attributable to the acquisition of the Switch brand in the U.K. and Redeshop brand in Brazil. In addition, volatility of exchange rates in 2004 contributed to increased trading settlement revenue versus prior periods.

• Currency conversion revenues increased as a result of greater cross border transactions in 2004 by cardholders in all regions. These revenues fluctuate with cross border travel. The conflict in Iraq, the threat of terrorism and SARS negatively impacted cross border travel in the beginning of 2003, which began to return to more normal levels in 2004.

• Fees for warning bulletins, which are listings of restricted cards, decreased primarily due to issuers of MasterCard-branded cards shifting from a paper-based version of restricted card listings to lower priced electronic versions.

• Our pricing structure rewards our customers with lower prices in exchange for certain volume, share and other commitments. We offer tiered pricing for our services, therefore as our customers grow and merge, they move into lower relative pricing for the same level of services. In addition to tiered pricing, incentives and rebates to certain customers continue to increase and are recorded as a reduction of revenue. Rebates and incentives are primarily based on transactions and volumes and accordingly increase with increases in these variables.

• Excessive chargeback fees are applied to acquiring banks that acquire transactions from merchants that experience a high level of disputed claims from their customers. In the second quarter 2003, an acquiring bank conducted business with these types of merchants and therefore, in accordance with MasterCard rules, was charged this fee.

23

• Other operations fees represent various revenue streams that relate to our transaction processing services. These revenues increased due to an overall increase in the demand for our programs and services. However, the change in any individual revenue line was not considered material. Examples of these revenues are fees for acceptance development, consulting and holograms.

Assessments

     Assessments are based primarily on our customers’ gross dollar volume (“GDV”) of MasterCard transactions. GDV represents gross usage (purchase and cash disbursements) on MasterCard-branded cards for goods and services including balance transfers and convenience checks. In the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, assessments revenue grew $46 million, or 23%, and $72 million, or 18%, respectively, over the same periods in 2003. GDV growth was 9% when measured in local currency terms in each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 over the same periods in 2003 and 12% and 13%, respectively, when measured on a U.S. dollar converted basis.

     In addition to the increase in GDV, assessments growth in 2004 was also due to the following factors:

• The expansion of new and existing market development programs in Europe and Latin America accounted for assessments growth of $11 million or 5% for the quarter and $17 million or 4% year to date. In these countries, customers are charged a fee based on volume, which MasterCard then reinvests in the country to promote the MasterCard brand.

• The assessment rates vary based on the nature of transactions which generate the volumes. In 2004, there was stronger growth in international volumes and purchase volumes, which are assessed at higher rates than domestic volumes and cash volumes, respectively.

• Rebates and incentives provided to customers reduce revenue and moderate assessments growth. These rebates and incentives generally are based on card generated volume as well as a fixed component for the issuance of new cards or launch of new programs. In the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, these rebates and incentives increased $6 million and $23 million, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2003. However, rebates and incentives as a percentage of assessments declined 3% for the quarter from the comparable period in 2003, which had a positive impact on assessments growth in the quarter.

Operating Expenses

     Our operating expenses are comprised of general and administrative, advertising and market development, the U.S. merchant lawsuit and other legal settlements, and depreciation and amortization expenses. In the three months ended June 30, 2004, there was an increase in operating expenses of $42 million or 8% over the same period in 2003 primarily due to advertising and marketing. In the six months ended June 30, 2004, there was a decrease in operating expenses of $662 million or 39% over the same period in 2003, an increase of $59 million or 6% excluding the $721 million resulting from the charge to earnings related to the U.S. merchant lawsuit occurring in 2003.

General and Administrative

     General and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel, professional fees, data processing, telecommunications and travel. These activities accounted for approximately 44% and 50% of total revenue in the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively, and 45% and 52% of total revenues in the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively. General and administrative expenses for the quarter and year to date remained substantially the same in 2004 versus 2003 as a result of our strategy to limit expense growth; however the components of general and administrative expenses changed between the periods as follows:

• Professional fees increased $10 million and $6 million in the quarter and year to date, respectively, over the same periods in 2003. The increase is due to higher legal fees and accounting services related to compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

• Telecommunications expense decreased $6 million and $10 million in the quarter and year to date, respectively, over the same periods in 2003 due to the ongoing evaluation of our telecommunication needs, including the renegotiation of certain contracts with service providers.

24

     Advertising and Market Development

     Advertising and market development consists of expenses associated with advertising, marketing, promotions and sponsorships, which promote our brands and assist our customers to achieve their goals by raising consumer awareness and usage of cards carrying our brand. The activities accounted for approximately 35% of total revenue in the second quarter of 2004 and 2003, respectively, and 32% and 33% of total revenue in the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Advertising and market development expenses increased $34 million or 17% and $48 million or 14% in the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively, over the same periods in 2003.

     Our advertising and market development expenses increased as a result of a number of key initiatives in 2004. In 2002, MasterCard implemented a four-year plan to accelerate our profitable growth and to enhance the global position of MasterCard and its customers by significantly expanding its spending in advertising and market development. For the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, we spent $44 million and $45 million, respectively, and in the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, we spent $79 million and $66 million, respectively, on advertising and marketing relating to this plan. The primary focus of these initiatives is to build brand recognition, promote brand acceptance, and enhance the development of our programs and services in certain markets. We will continue to evaluate the extent of these initiatives in light of changing market conditions. The major advertising and market development activities increased as follows during the three and six months ended June 30, 2004:

• Advertising increased $30 million in the quarter and $52 million year to date over the same periods in 2003. Our Priceless campaign continues to be successful in 96 countries and 47 languages and we plan to continue to invest significantly in this campaign. In addition to the four-year plan mentioned above, MasterCard has an agreement to promote brand migration from Eurocard to MasterCard in Germany. MasterCard advertising expense under this agreement increased $6 million and $10 million during the quarter and year to date, respectively, over the same periods in 2003.

• Promotions increased $6 million in the quarter and decreased $5 million year to date over the same periods in 2003. Promotional expenses vary based on the timing of the programs undertaken during the relevant period. Promotions which began during the first half of 2004 include Priceless Edge and the MasterCard “Weekend Matters” Sweepstakes.

• Sponsorships decreased $3 million in the quarter and increased $2 million year to date over the same periods in 2003. Sponsorship expenses vary based on the timing of the specific events covered by the sponsorship agreements. We are sponsors of the World Cup, UEFA Champions League, certain NFL teams, Major League Baseball, the Professional Golf Association and Universal Studios, among others.

     The MasterCard family of brands, principally MasterCard, is a valuable strategic asset which conveys a symbol that can be readily identified by our customers, as well as our cardholders, creating value for our business. Our advertising and marketing efforts are focused on ensuring that our services are identified, communicated and marketed in a clear, efficient and consistent manner, not only on a local level, but also on a global scale. We are committed to maintaining and enhancing our MasterCard brand reputation, image and ultimate value.

     Merchant Lawsuit

     For the six months ended June 30, 2003, the total pre-tax charge recorded for the U.S. merchant lawsuit was $721 million. The primary components of this charge were (i) the monetary amount of the U.S. merchant settlement (discounted at 8 percent over the payment term), (ii) certain additional costs in connection with, and in order to comply with, other requirements of the U.S. merchant settlement, and (iii) costs to address certain merchants who opted not to participate in the U.S. merchant lawsuit. This amount was an estimate, which was revised during the three months ended December 31, 2003 based on approval of the Settlement Agreement by the court, and other factors. The Company reviewed these estimates and made an additional charge of $4 million in the three months ended June 30, 2004. If necessary, future refinements will also be made. Relating to these settlements, payments of $5 million and $11 million were made during the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively.

25

     Depreciation and Amortization

     Depreciation and amortization expenses were relatively consistent in the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, compared to the same periods in 2003. Our business is dependent on the technology that we use to process transactions, which is continuously updated and improved. Therefore, our investments in capitalized software and related amortization also continue to increase.

     Other Income and Expense

     Other income (expense) is comprised primarily of investment income and interest expense. Investment income decreased $9 million and $6 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively, over the same periods in 2003 resulting from a decline in the market value of the trading securities portfolio which had significant appreciation in the comparable periods in 2003. Interest expense decreased $2 million and increased $10 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively, primarily due to changes in imputed interest on the U.S. merchant lawsuit settlement obligation.

     Income Taxes

     The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 was 27.1% and 31.7%, respectively, compared to 35.3% in each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2003. The decrease in the rate in 2004 is primarily attributable to discrete items that occurred in the second quarter. The primary discrete items were the favorable settlement and reassessment of various tax controversies and the filing and recognition of refund claims, partially offset by an increase in the valuation allowance for the future realization of a benefit from a capital loss carryover. Absent the discrete items our effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 would have been 36.9% and 36.0%, respectively. The increase in the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 before discrete items is primarily attributable to a change in the geographic distribution of pretax income from taxable jurisdictions with lower rates to those with higher rates.

Liquidity

     We believe our ability to generate cash from our operations to reinvest in our business is one of our fundamental financial strengths. We need capital resources and liquidity to fund our global development, to provide for settlement risk, to finance capital expenditures and any future acquisitions and to service the payments of principal and interest on our outstanding debt and the settlement of the U.S. merchant lawsuit. At June 30, 2004, we had $949 million of liquid investments with which to manage operations, compared to $880 million at December 31, 2003. We expect that cash and cash equivalents, cash generated from operations and our borrowing capacity will be sufficient to meet our operating, working capital and capital needs in 2004 and beyond. In addition, we believe that our resources are sufficient to fund our initiatives to accelerate our profitable growth and to enhance the global position of MasterCard in 2004 and beyond.

Stockholders’ equity		821		699		17	%
Working capital ratio		1.51		1.35		12	%

     Net cash provided by operating activities in 2004 was generated principally by current period earnings exclusive of non-cash charges for depreciation and amortization, offset by the payment of accounts payable and accrued balances that had increased at December 31, 2003 due to heavy fourth quarter 2003 advertising and market development activity and payment of 2003 accrued incentive compensation during the first six months of 2004.

     The utilization of cash by investing activities in 2004 was primarily due to the acquisition of certain businesses as described in Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included herein, and the purchase of, or cost of internally developed, capitalized software. Our capitalized software is essential to providing payment card transaction processing to our customers through our proprietary global computer and telecommunications system.

     In addition to our liquid investments, we provide for liquidity through a committed $1.95 billion revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with certain financial institutions which expires on June 17, 2005. The Credit Facility replaced MasterCard Incorporated’s prior $1.2 billion credit facility which expired on June 18, 2004. Borrowings under the facility are available to provide liquidity in the event of one or more settlement failures by MasterCard International members and, subject to a limit of $300 million, for general corporate purposes. Interest on borrowings under the Credit Facility is charged at the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus 28 basis points. An additional 10 basis points would be applied if the aggregate borrowings under the Credit Facility exceed 33% of the commitments. MasterCard agreed to pay a facility fee which varies based on MasterCard’s credit rating and is currently equal to 7 basis points on the total commitment. MasterCard was in compliance with the Credit Facility covenants as of June 30, 2004. There were no borrowings under the Credit Facility at June 30, 2004. The majority of Credit Facility lenders are members or affiliates of members of MasterCard International.

     In addition, as of June 30, 2004, MasterCard Europe cancelled an uncommitted credit agreement totaling 30 million euros.

Future Obligations

     The following table summarizes our obligations as of June 30, 2004 that are expected to impact liquidity and cash flows in future periods. We believe that we will be able to fund these obligations through cash generated from operations and our existing cash balances.

(a)	Most capital leases relate to certain property, plant and equipment used in our business. Our largest capital lease relates to our Kansas City, Missouri co-processing facility.
(b)	We enter into operating leases in the normal course of business. Substantially all lease agreements have fixed payment terms based on the passage of time. Some lease agreements provide us with the option to renew the lease or purchase the leased property. Our future operating lease obligations would change if we exercised these renewal options and if we entered into additional lease agreements.
(c)	Amounts primarily relate to alliances we have with certain organizations to promote the MasterCard brand. The amounts included are fixed and non-cancelable. In addition, these amounts include purchase obligations.
(d)	Amounts due in accordance with legal settlements entered into during 2003 and refined in 2004, including the Settlement Agreement in the U.S. merchant lawsuit.
(e)	Debt represents principal and interest owed on our subordinated notes due June 2008 and Secured Notes due September 2009. We also have various credit facilities for which there were no outstanding balances at June 30, 2004 that, among other things, would provide liquidity in the event of settlement failures by our members. Our debt obligations would change if one or more of our members failed and we needed these credit facilities to settle on our members’ behalf or if we borrowed under these facilities for other reasons.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

     In May 2004, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. FAS 106-2, “Accounting and Disclosure Requirements Related to the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003” (“FSP 106-2”). FSP 106-2 requires (a) that the effects of the federal subsidy be considered an actuarial gain and recognized in the same manner as other actuarial gains and losses and (b) certain disclosures for employers that sponsor postretirement benefit plans that provide prescription drug benefits. The Company has determined that the enactment of the Medicare Modernization Act was not a significant event with respect to its plans, and accordingly, as required by FSP 106-2, the effects of the Act will be incorporated into our December 31, 2004 measurement of the plan’s benefit obligations.

     In March 2004, the Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) reached a consensus on EITF Issue No. 03-01, “The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments,” (“EITF 03-01”). EITF 03-01 addresses determining the meaning of other-than-temporary impairment and its application to investments classified as either available-for-sale or held-to-maturity under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Investments” (“SFAS 115”) and investments accounted for under the cost method or the equity method. The EITF reached a consensus on a model for determining whether an investment within the scope of EITF 03-01 is other-than-temporarily impaired and reached a consensus that investors should provide certain disclosures related to investments that are within the scope of EITF 03-01. The consensus for evaluating whether an investment is other-than-temporarily impaired should be applied to evaluations made in reporting periods beginning after June 15, 2004. The consensus on additional disclosures for cost method investments is effective for fiscal years ending after June 15, 2004. The adoption of EITF 03-01 is not expected to have an impact on our financial position or results of operations.

     In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” (“FIN 46”). FIN 46 clarifies that companies may need to consolidate certain entities in which equity investors do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties. FIN 46 applied immediately to variable interest entities created or in which an enterprise obtained an interest after January 31, 2003. The Company adopted FIN 46 on January 1, 2003 and therefore consolidated its variable interest entity as described in Note 1 and 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included herein. In December 2003, FIN 46 was revised. The adoption of the revisions to FIN 46 did not have an impact on our financial position or results of operations.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

     Market risk is the potential for economic losses to be incurred on market risk sensitive instruments arising from adverse changes in market factors such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, and equity price risk. We have limited exposure to market risk from changes in interest rates, foreign exchange rates and equity price risk. Management establishes and oversees the implementation of policies, which have been approved by the Board of Directors, governing our funding, investments, and use of derivative financial instruments. We monitor aggregate risk exposures on an ongoing basis. There have been no material changes in our market risk exposures at June 30, 2004 as compared to December 31, 2003.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

     MasterCard Incorporated’s management, including the President and Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, carried out an evaluation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this Report. Based on that evaluation, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that MasterCard Incorporated had effective controls and procedures for (i) recording, processing, summarizing and reporting information that is required to be disclosed in its reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and (ii) ensuring that information required to be disclosed in such reports is accumulated and communicated to MasterCard Incorporated’s management, including its President and Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders
Of MasterCard Incorporated:

We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of MasterCard Incorporated and its subsidiaries as of June 30, 2004, and the related consolidated statements of operations and consolidated condensed statements of comprehensive income (loss) for each of the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the six-month period ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 and the consolidated statement of changes in stockholders’ equity for the six-month period ended June 30, 2004. These interim financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.

We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying consolidated interim financial statements for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We previously audited in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2003, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), changes in stockholders’/members’ equity, and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein), and in our report dated March 4, 2004 we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet information as of December 31, 2003, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

      Monday (or, if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding

      Citibank on the basis of such rates reported by certificate of deposit
      dealers to and published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York or, if
      such publications shall be suspended or terminated, on the basis of

                      SECTION 2. AMOUNT AND TERMS OF LOANS

conditions hereof, each Lender severally agrees to make revolving credit loans
("Revolving Credit Loans") to the Borrower from time to time during the
Commitment Period in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding,
when added to such Lender's Commitment Percentage of all outstanding Swing Line
Loans, not to exceed the amount of such Lender's Commitment, provided that the
aggregate principal amount of all Loans outstanding at any time shall not exceed
the aggregate amount of the Commitments at such time. During the Commitment
Period the Borrower may use the Commitments by borrowing, prepaying the
Revolving Credit Loans in whole or in part, and reborrowing, all in accordance
with the terms and conditions hereof.

      (b) The Revolving Credit Loans may from time to time be LIBOR Loans, ABR
Loans, or a combination thereof, as determined by the Borrower and notified to
the Administrative Agent in accordance with Sections 2.2 and 2.9.

            2.2 Procedure for Revolving Credit Borrowing. The Borrower may
borrow under the Commitments during the Commitment Period on any Business Day,
provided that the Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable
notice (which notice must be received by the Administrative Agent prior to 1:00
P.M., New York City time, (a) three Business Days prior to the requested
Borrowing Date, if all or any part of the requested Revolving Credit Loans are
to be initially LIBOR Loans, or (b) on the same Business Day of the requested
Borrowing Date, otherwise), specifying (i) the amount to be borrowed, (ii) the
requested Borrowing Date, (iii) whether the borrowing is to be of LIBOR Loans,
ABR Loans, or a combination thereof and (iv) if the borrowing is to be entirely
or partly of LIBOR Loans, the respective amounts of each such Type of Revolving
Credit Loan and the respective lengths of the initial Interest Periods therefor.
Each borrowing under the Commitments shall be in an amount equal to at least
$10,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (or, if the then
aggregate Available Commitments are less than $10,000,000, such lesser amount).
Upon receipt of any such notice from the Borrower, the Administrative Agent
shall promptly notify each Lender thereof. Except as contemplated by subsection
2.20(c), each Lender will make the amount of its pro rata share of each
borrowing available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Borrower
at the office of the Administrative Agent specified in Section 10.2 prior to
2:00 P.M., New York City time, on the Borrowing Date requested by the Borrower
in funds immediately available to the Administrative Agent. Such borrowing will
then be made available to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent crediting the
account of the Borrower on the books of such office with the aggregate of the
amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by the Lenders and in like
funds as received by the Administrative Agent.

            2.3 Term Loans. The Revolving Credit Loans outstanding at the close
of business New York City time on the Revolving Credit Termination Date shall,
at the option of the Borrower, subject to Section 4.2, be converted on such date
into term loans (the "Term Loans") to the Borrower. The Term Loans may from time
to time be (a) LIBOR Loans, (b) ABR Loans or (c) a combination thereof, as
determined by the Borrower and notified to the Administrative Agent in
accordance with Sections 2.4 and 2.9.

            2.4 Procedure for Term Loan Borrowing. The Borrower shall give the
Administrative Agent irrevocable notice (which notice must be received by the
Administrative Agent prior to 10:00 A.M., New York City time, (a) three Business
Days prior to the Revolving

                                CREDIT AGREEMENT



                                                                              17

Credit Termination Date, if all or any part of the Term Loans are to be
initially LIBOR Loans or (b) on the Revolving Credit Termination Date,
otherwise) if the Borrower intends to convert Revolving Credit Loans to Term
Loans pursuant to Section 2.3 and specifying (i) whether the resulting Term
Loans are to be initially LIBOR Loans, ABR Loans or a combination thereof, and
(ii) if the Term Loans are to be entirely or partly LIBOR Loans the respective
lengths of the initial Interest Periods therefor. Upon receipt of such notice
the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender thereof. The
aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans shall be equal to the aggregate
principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans outstanding at the close of
business New York City time on the Revolving Credit Termination Date and the
Term Loans shall be deemed to have been made at such time without any payments
being made by the Lenders. Promptly after the making of its Term Loan each
Lender shall mark any Revolving Credit Note held by it "cancelled" and deliver
the same to the Borrower.

            2.5 Facility Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative
Agent for the account of each Lender a facility fee for the period from and
including the first day of the Commitment Period to the Termination Date,
computed at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Facility Fee Rate on (i)
the average daily Commitment of such Lender, whether or not utilized, from and
including the first day of the Commitment Period until the Revolving Credit
Termination Date, and on (ii) the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans
of such Lender, if any, thereafter. Such facility fee shall be payable quarterly
in arrears on the last day of each March, June, September and December, on the
Revolving Credit Termination Date or the Termination Date, as applicable, or
such earlier date as the Commitments shall terminate as provided herein,
commencing on the first of such dates to occur after the date hereof.

            2.6 Termination or Reduction of Commitments. The Borrower shall have
the right, upon not less than one Business Day's notice to the Administrative
Agent, to terminate the Commitments or, from time to time, to reduce the amount
of the Commitments, provided that after giving effect to such termination or
reduction, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Loans shall not
exceed the aggregate Commitments. Any such reduction shall be in an amount equal
to $10,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and shall
reduce permanently the Commitments then in effect. Termination or reduction of
the Commitments shall also terminate or reduce, as the case may be, the
obligation of the Lenders to make the Term Loans.

            2.7 Repayment of Revolving Credit Loans and Term Loans; Evidence of
Debt. (a) The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the
Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender (i) subject to Section 2.3,
the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Credit Loan of such Lender on
the Revolving Credit Termination Date (or such earlier date on which the
Revolving Credit Loans become due and payable pursuant to Section 7), and (ii)
the principal amount of the Term Loan of such Lender on the Termination Date (or
the then unpaid principal amount of such Term Loan, on the date that the Term
Loans become due and payable pursuant to Section 7). The Borrower hereby further
agrees to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Revolving Credit
Loans and Term Loans from time to time outstanding from the date hereof until
payment in full thereof at the rates per annum, and on the dates, set forth in
Section 2.16.

      (b) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice
appropriate records evidencing indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender
resulting from each Revolving Credit

hereunder, the Type thereof and each Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii)
the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and
payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) both the amount of
any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrower and

maintained pursuant to subsection 2.7(b) shall, to the extent permitted by
applicable law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the
obligations of the Borrower therein recorded; provided, however, that the
failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain the Register or
any such record, or any error therein, shall not in any manner affect the
obligation of the Borrower to repay (with applicable interest) the Revolving
Credit Loans and Term Loans made to such Borrower by such Lender in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement.

      (e) The Borrower agrees that, upon the request to the Administrative Agent
by any Lender, the Borrower will execute and deliver to such Lender (i) a
promissory note of the Borrower evidencing the Revolving Credit Loans of such
Lender, substantially in the form of Exhibit A with appropriate insertions as to
date and principal amount (a "Revolving Credit Note"), and/or (ii) a promissory
note of the Borrower evidencing the Term Loan of such Lender, substantially in
the form of Exhibit B with appropriate insertions as to date and principal
amount (a "Term Note").

            2.8 Optional Prepayments. The Borrower may at any time and from time
to time prepay the Revolving Credit Loans or the Term Loans, in whole or in
part, without premium or penalty (subject to Section 2.24), upon at least two
Business Days' irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent, if such
prepayment is to be applied in whole or in part to LIBOR Loans, and upon same
day notice otherwise (which notices shall be made on the relevant day not later
than 10:00 A.M., New York City time), specifying the date and amount of
prepayment and whether the prepayment is of LIBOR Loans, or a combination of
LIBOR and ABR Loans, and, if of a combination thereof, the amount allocable to
each; in the case of ABR Loans, notice shall be same day. Upon receipt of any
such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender thereof.
If any such notice is given, the amount specified in such notice shall be due
and payable on the date specified therein, together with any accrued interest to
such date on the amount prepaid and any other amounts payable pursuant to
Section 2.24. Amounts prepaid on account of the Term Loans may not be
reborrowed. Partial prepayments shall be in an aggregate principal amount of
$10,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. The Borrower
shall not have the right to prepay any principal amount of any CAF Advance
except as provided in subsection 2.12(a). Prepayments of any Swing Line Loan
shall be as provided in subsection 2.20(a).

            2.9 Conversion and Continuation Options. (a) The Borrower may elect
from time to time to convert LIBOR Loans to ABR Loans, by giving the
Administrative Agent at least three Business Days' prior irrevocable notice of
such election, provided that any such conversion of LIBOR Loans may only be made
on the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto.

                                CREDIT AGREEMENT



                                                                              19

The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert ABR Loans to LIBOR Loans by
giving the Administrative Agent at least three Business Days' prior irrevocable
notice of such election. Any such notice of conversion to LIBOR Loans shall
specify the length of the initial Interest Period or Interest Periods therefor.
Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify
each Lender thereof. All or any part of outstanding LIBOR Loans and ABR Loans
may be converted as provided herein, provided that (i) no Revolving Credit Loan
or Term Loan may be converted into a LIBOR Loan when any Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent has or the Required
Lenders have determined that such a conversion is not appropriate, and (ii) no
Swing Line Loan may be converted into a loan that bears interest at any rate
other than the ABR.

      (b) Any LIBOR Loans may be continued as such upon the expiration of the
then current Interest Period with respect thereto by the Borrower giving notice
to the Administrative Agent, in accordance with the applicable provisions of the
term "Interest Period" set forth in Section 1.1, of the length of the next
Interest Period to be applicable to such Revolving Credit Loans, provided that
no LIBOR Loan may be continued as such when any Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing and the Administrative Agent has or the Required Lenders have
determined that such a continuation is not appropriate; and provided, further,
that if the Borrower shall fail to give such notice or if such continuation is
not permitted such Revolving Credit Loans shall be automatically converted to
ABR Loans on the last day of such then expiring Interest Period.

            2.10 CAF Advances. Subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, the Borrower may borrow CAF Advances from time to time on any
Business Day during the CAF Advance Availability Period. CAF Advances may be
borrowed in amounts such that the aggregate principal amount of all Loans
outstanding at any time shall not exceed the aggregate amount of the Commitments
at such time. Within the limits and on the conditions hereinafter set forth with
respect to CAF Advances, the Borrower may from time to time borrow, repay and
reborrow CAF Advances.

            2.11 Procedure for CAF Advance Borrowing. (a) The Borrower shall
request CAF Advances by delivering a CAF Advance Request to the Administrative
Agent, not later than 1:00 P.M. (New York City time), four Business Days prior
to the proposed Borrowing Date (in the case of a LIBOR CAF Advance Request), and
not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time), one Business Day prior to the
proposed Borrowing Date (in the case of a Fixed Rate CAF Advance Request). Each
CAF Advance Request in respect of any Borrowing Date may solicit bids for CAF
Advances on such Borrowing Date in an aggregate principal amount of $10,000,000
or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and having not more than
three alternative CAF Advance Maturity Dates. The CAF Advance Maturity Date for
each CAF Advance shall be the date set forth therefor in the relevant CAF
Advance Request, which date shall be (i) not less than 7 days nor more than 60
days after the Borrowing Date therefor, in the case of a Fixed Rate CAF Advance,
(ii) one or two months after the Borrowing Date therefor, in the case of a LIBOR
CAF Advance and (iii) not later than the Revolving Credit Termination Date, in
the case of any CAF Advance. The Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender
promptly by facsimile transmission of the contents of each CAF Advance Request
received by the Administrative Agent.

      (b) In the case of a LIBOR CAF Advance Request, upon receipt of notice
from the Administrative Agent of the contents of such CAF Advance Request, each
Lender may elect, in its sole discretion, to offer irrevocably to make one or
more CAF Advances at the applicable

                                CREDIT AGREEMENT




                                                                              20

London Interbank Offered Rate plus (or minus) a margin determined by such Lender
in its sole discretion for each such CAF Advance. Any such irrevocable offer
shall be made by delivering a CAF Advance Offer to the Administrative Agent,
before 10:30 A.M., New York City time, on the day that is three Business Days
before the proposed Borrowing Date, setting forth:

            (i) the maximum amount of CAF Advances for each CAF Advance Maturity
      Date and the aggregate maximum amount of CAF Advances for all CAF Advance
      Maturity Dates which such Lender would be willing to make (which amounts
      may, subject to Section 2.10, exceed such Lender's Commitment); and

            (ii) the margin above or below the applicable London Interbank
      Offered Rate at which such Lender is willing to make each such CAF
      Advance.

      The Administrative Agent shall advise the Borrower before 11:00 A.M., New
      York City time, on the date which is three Business Days before the
      proposed Borrowing Date of the contents of each such CAF Advance Offer
      received by it. If the Administrative Agent, in its capacity as a Lender,
      shall elect, in its sole discretion, to make any such CAF Advance Offer,
      it shall advise the Borrower of the contents of its CAF Advance Offer
      before 10:15 A.M., New York City time, on the date which is three Business
      Days before the proposed Borrowing Date.

      (c) In the case of a Fixed Rate CAF Advance Request, upon receipt of
notice from the Administrative Agent of the contents of such CAF Advance
Request, each Lender may elect, in its sole discretion, to offer irrevocably to
make one or more CAF Advances at a rate of interest determined by such Lender in
its sole discretion for each such CAF Advance. Any such irrevocable offer shall
be made by delivering a CAF Advance Offer to the Administrative Agent before
9:30 A.M., New York City time, on the proposed Borrowing Date, setting forth:

            (i) the maximum amount of CAF Advances for each CAF Advance Maturity
      Date, and the aggregate maximum amount for all CAF Advance Maturity Dates,
      which such Lender would be willing to make (which amounts may, subject to
      Section 2.10, exceed such Lender's Commitment); and

            (ii) the rate of interest at which such Leader is willing to make
      each such CAF Advance.

      The Administrative Agent shall advise the Borrower before 10:00 A.M., New
      York City time, on the proposed Borrowing Date of the contents of each
      such CAF Advance Offer received by it. If the Administrative Agent, in its
      capacity as a Lender, shall elect, in its sole discretion, to make any
      such CAF Advance Offer, it shall advise the Borrower of the contents of
      its CAF Advance Offer before 9:15 A.M., New York City time, on the
      proposed Borrowing Date.

      (d) Before 11:30 A.M., New York City time, three Business Days before the
proposed Borrowing Date (in the case of CAF Advances requested by a LIBOR CAF
Advance Request) and before 10:30 A.M., New York City time, on the proposed
Borrowing Date (in the case of CAF Advances requested by a Fixed Rate CAF
Advance Request), the Borrower, in its absolute discretion, shall:

                                CREDIT AGREEMENT



                                                                              21

            (i) cancel such CAF Advance Request by giving the Administrative
      Agent telephone notice to that effect, or

            (ii) by giving telephone notice to the Administrative Agent
      (immediately confirmed by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a CAF
      Advance Confirmation by facsimile transmission) (A) subject to the
      provisions of subsection 2.11(e), accept one or more of the offers made by
      any Lender or Lenders pursuant to subsection 2.11(b) or subsection
      2.11(c), as the case may be, and (B) reject any remaining offers made by
      Lenders pursuant to subsection 2.11(b) or subsection 2.11(c), as the case
      may be.

      (e) The Borrower's acceptance of CAF Advances in response to any CAF
Advance Offers shall be subject to the following limitations:

            (i) the amount of CAF Advances accepted for each CAF Advance
      Maturity Date specified by any Lender in its CAF Advance Offer shall not
      exceed the maximum amount for such CAF Advance Maturity Date specified in
      such CAF Advance Offer;

            (ii) the aggregate amount of CAF Advances accepted for all CAF
      Advance Maturity Dates specified by any Lender in its CAF Advance Offer
      shall not exceed the aggregate maximum amount specified in such CAF
      Advance Offer for all such CAF Advance Maturity Dates;

            (iii) the Borrower may not accept offers for CAF Advances for any
      CAF Advance Maturity Date in an aggregate principal amount in excess of
      the maximum principal amount requested in the related CAF Advance Request;
      and

            (iv) if the Borrower accepts any of such offers, it must accept
      offers based solely upon pricing for each relevant CAF Advance Maturity
      Date and upon no other criteria whatsoever, and if two or more Lenders
      submit offers for any CAF Advance Maturity Date at identical pricing and
      the Borrower accepts any of such offers but does not wish to (or, by
      reason of the limitations set forth in Section 2.10, cannot) borrow the
      total amount offered by such Lenders with such identical pricing, the
      Borrower shall accept offers from all of such Lenders in amounts allocated
      among them pro rata according to the amounts offered by such Lenders (with
      appropriate rounding, in the sole discretion of the Borrower, to assure
      that each accepted CAF Advance is an integral multiple of $1,000,000);
      provided that if the number of Lenders that submit offers for any CAF
      Advance Maturity Date at identical pricing is such that, after the
      Borrower accepts such offers pro rata in accordance with the foregoing
      provisions of this paragraph, the CAF Advance to be made by any such
      Lender would be less than $5,000,000 principal amount, the number of such
      Lenders shall be reduced by the Administrative Agent by lot until the CAF
      Advances to be made by each such remaining Lender would be in a principal
      amount of $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess
      thereof.

      (f) If the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent that a CAF Advance
Request is cancelled pursuant to subsection 2.11(d)(i), the Administrative Agent
shall give prompt telephone notice thereof to the Lenders.

      (g) If the Borrower accepts pursuant to subsection 2.11(d)(ii) one or more
of the offers made by any Lender or Lenders, the Administrative Agent promptly
shall notify each Lender

                                CREDIT AGREEMENT



                                                                              22

which has made such an offer of (i) the aggregate amount of such CAF Advances to
be made on such Borrowing Date for each CAF Advance Maturity Date and (ii) the
acceptance or rejection of any offers to make such CAF Advances made by such
Lender. Before 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the Borrowing Date specified
in the applicable CAF Advance Request, each Lender whose CAF Advance Offer has
been accepted shall make available to the Administrative Agent at its office set
forth in Section 10.2 the amount of CAF Advances to be made by such Lender, in
immediately available funds. The Administrative Agent will make such funds
available to the Borrower as soon as practicable on such date at such office of
the Administrative Agent. As soon as practicable after each Borrowing Date, the
Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the aggregate amount of CAF
Advances advanced on such Borrowing Date and the respective CAF Advance Maturity
Dates thereof.

            2.12 CAF Advance Payments. (a) The Borrower hereby unconditionally
promises to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender
which has made a CAF Advance, on the applicable CAF Advance Maturity Date, the
then unpaid principal amount of such CAF Advance. The Borrower shall not have
the right to prepay any principal amount of any CAF Advance without the consent
of the Lender to which such CAF Advance is owed.

      (b) The Borrower hereby further agrees to pay interest on the unpaid
principal amount of each CAF Advance from the Borrowing Date of such CAF Advance
to the applicable CAF Advance Maturity Date at the rate of interest specified in
the CAF Advance Offer accepted by the Borrower in connection with such CAF
Advance (calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for actual days elapsed),
payable on each applicable CAF Advance Interest Payment Date.

      (c) If any principal of, or interest on, any CAF Advance shall not be paid
when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such
CAF Advance shall, without limiting any rights of any Lender under this
Agreement, bear interest from the date on which such payment was due at a rate
per annum which is 2% per annum above the rate which would otherwise be
applicable to such CAF Advance until the stated CAF Advance Maturity Date of
such CAF Advance, and for each day thereafter at a rate per annum which is 2%
per annum above the ABR, in each case until paid in full (as well after as
before judgment). Interest accruing pursuant to this paragraph (c) shall be
payable from time to time on demand.

            2.13 Evidence of Debt. Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with
its usual practice appropriate records evidencing indebtedness of the Borrower
to such Lender resulting from each CAF Advance of such Lender from time to time,
including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender
from time to time in respect of such CAF Advance. The Administrative Agent shall
maintain the Register pursuant to subsection 10.6(e), and a record therein for
each Lender, in which shall be recorded (i) the amount of each CAF Advance made
by such Lender, the CAF Advance Maturity Date thereof, the interest rate
applicable thereto and each CAF Advance Interest Payment Date applicable
thereto, and (ii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent
hereunder from the Borrower on account of such CAF Advance. The entries made in
the Register and the records of each Lender maintained pursuant to this Section
shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be prima facie evidence of the
existence and amounts of the obligations of the Borrower therein recorded;
provided, however, that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to
maintain the Register or any such record, or any error therein, shall not in any
manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay (with applicable interest)
the CAF Advances made by such Lender in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement.

                                CREDIT AGREEMENT



                                                                              23

            2.14 Certain Restrictions. A CAF Advance Request may request offers
for CAF Advances to be made on not more than one Borrowing Date and to mature on
not more than three CAF Advance Maturity Dates. No CAF Advance Request may be
submitted earlier than five Business Days after submission of any other CAF
Advance Request.

            2.15 Minimum Amounts of Tranches. All borrowings, conversions and
continuations of Revolving Credit Loans and Term Loans hereunder and all
selections of Interest Periods hereunder shall be in such amounts and be made
pursuant to such elections so that, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate
principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans and Term Loans comprising each
LIBOR Tranche shall be equal to $10,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in
excess thereof. In no event shall there be more than five LIBOR Tranches
outstanding at any time.

            2.16 Interest Rates and Payment Dates. (a) Each LIBOR Loan shall
bear interest for each day during each Interest Period with respect thereto at a
rate per annum equal to the London Interbank Offered Rate for such Interest
Period plus the Applicable Margin.

      (b) Each ABR Loan and Swing Line Loan shall bear interest at a rate per
annum equal to the ABR. Each CAF Advance shall bear interest as provided in
Section 2.10.

      (c) If all or a portion of (i) any principal of any Revolving Credit Loan,
Term Loan or Swing Line Loan, (ii) any interest payable thereon, (iii) any
facility fee or (iv) any other amount payable hereunder (other than overdue CAF
payments provided for in subsection 2.12(c)) shall not be paid when due (whether
at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), the principal of the
Revolving Credit Loans, Term-Loans and the Swing Line Loans and any such overdue
interest, facility fee or other amount shall bear interest at a rate per annum
which is (x) in the case of principal, the rate that would otherwise be
applicable thereto pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section plus 2%
per annum or (y) in the case of any such overdue interest, facility fee or other
amount, the rate applicable to ABR Loans pursuant to subsection 2.16(b) plus 2%
per annum, in each case from the date of such non-payment until such overdue
principal, interest, facility fee or other amount is paid in full (as well after
as before judgment).

      (d) Interest on Revolving Credit Loans, Term Loans and Swing Line Loans
shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, provided that
interest accruing pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section shall be payable
from time to time on demand.

            2.17 Computation of Interest and Fees. (a) Whenever it is calculated
on the basis of the ABR, interest shall be calculated on the basis of a 365- (or
366-, as the case may be) day year for the actual days elapsed; and, otherwise,
interest and the facility fee shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year
for the actual days elapsed. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as
practicable notify the Borrower and the Lenders of each determination of a
London Interbank Offered Rate. Any change in the interest rate on a Loan
resulting from a change in the ABR, the Eurocurrency Reserve Requirements, the
C/D Assessment Rate or the C/D Reserve Percentage shall become effective as of
the opening of business on the day on which such change becomes effective. The
Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrower and the
Lenders of the effective date and the amount of each such change in interest
rate.

                                CREDIT AGREEMENT



                                                                              24

      (b) Each determination of an interest rate by the Administrative Agent
pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on
the Borrower and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error. The
Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the Borrower, deliver to the
Borrower a statement showing the quotations used by the Administrative Agent in
determining any interest rate pursuant to subsection 2.16(a) or 2.9(b).

            2.18 Inability to Determine Interest Rate. If prior to the first day
of any Interest Period:

      (a) the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination
shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower) that, by reason of
circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do
not exist for ascertaining the London Interbank Offered Rate for such Interest
Period, or

      (b) the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Required
Lenders that the London Interbank Offered Rate determined or to be determined
for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such
Lenders (as conclusively certified by such Lenders) of making or maintaining
their affected Loans during such Interest Period,

the Administrative Agent shall give telecopy or telephonic notice thereof to the
Borrower and the Lenders as soon as practicable thereafter. If such notice is
given (x) any LIBOR Loans requested to be made on the first day of such Interest
Period shall be made as ABR Loans, (y) any Loans that were to have been
converted on the first day of such Interest Period to LIBOR Loans, shall be
converted to or continued as ABR Loans and (z) any outstanding LIBOR Loans shall
be converted, on the first day of such Interest Period, to ABR Loans. Until such
notice has been withdrawn by the Administrative Agent, no further LIBOR Loans
shall be made or continued as such, nor shall the Borrower have the right to
convert Loans to LIBOR Loans, as the case may be.

            2.19 Pro Rata Treatment and Payments. (a) Each borrowing of
Revolving Credit Loans and Term Loans by the Borrower from the Lenders
hereunder, each payment by the Borrower on account of any facility fee hereunder
and any reduction of the Commitments of the Lenders shall be made pro rata
according to the respective Commitment Percentages of the Lenders. Each payment
(including each prepayment) by the Borrower on account of principal of and
interest on any Loans shall be made pro rata according to the respective
outstanding principal amounts of such Loans then held by the Lenders. All
payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrower hereunder, whether
on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise, shall be made without
set-off or counterclaim and shall be made prior to 2:00 P.M., New York City
time, on the due date thereof to the Administrative Agent, for the account of
the Lenders, at the Administrative Agent's office specified in Section 10.2, in
Dollars and in immediately available funds. The Administrative Agent shall
distribute such payments to the Lenders promptly upon receipt in like funds as
received. If any payment hereunder becomes due and payable on a day other than a
Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business
Day, and, with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be
payable at the then applicable rate during such extension.

      (b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by
any Lender prior to a borrowing that such Lender will not make the amount that
would constitute its allocable share of such borrowing available to the
Administrative Agent, the Administrative

                                CREDIT AGREEMENT



                                                                              25

Agent may assume that such Lender is making such amount available to the
Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such
assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If such
amount is not made available to the Administrative Agent by the required time on
the Borrowing Date therefor, such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent,
on demand, such amount with interest thereon at a rate equal to the daily
average Federal Funds Rate for the period until such Lender makes such amount
immediately available to the Administrative Agent. A certificate of the
Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts owing
under this Section shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If such
Lender's Commitment Percentage of such borrowing is not made available to the
Administrative Agent by such Lender within three Business Days of such Borrowing
Date, the Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover such amount
with interest thereon at the rate per annum applicable to ABR Loans hereunder,
on demand, from the Borrower.

            2.20 Swing Line Commitment. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions
hereof, the Swing Line Lender agrees to make swing line loans ("Swing Line
Loans") to the Borrower from time to time during the Commitment Period in an
aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed
$200,000,000, provided that the aggregate principal amount of all Loans
outstanding at any one time shall not exceed the aggregate amount of the
Commitments at such time. During the Commitment Period, the Borrower may use the
Swing Line Commitment by borrowing, prepaying the Swing Line Loans in whole or
in part, and reborrowing, all in accordance with the terms and conditions
hereof. All Swing Line Loans shall bear interest based upon the ABR and shall
not be entitled to be converted into loans that bear interest at any other rate.
The Borrower shall give the Swing Line Lender irrevocable notice (which notice
must be received by the Swing Line Lender prior to 3:00 P.M., New York City
time, on the requested Borrowing Date specifying the amount of the requested
Swing Line Loan which shall be in a minimum amount of $100,000 or a whole
multiple of $50,000 in excess thereof). The proceeds of the Swing Line Loan will
be made available by the Swing Line Lender to the Borrower at the office of the
Swing Line Lender by 4:00 P.M., New York City time, on the Borrowing Date by
crediting the account of the Borrower at such office with such proceeds. The
Borrower may, at any time and from time to time, prepay the Swing Line Loans, in
whole or in part, without premium or penalty, by notifying the Swing Line Lender
prior to 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on any Business Day of the date and
amount of prepayment. If any such notice is given, the amount specified in such
notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. Partial
prepayments shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $100,000 or a whole
multiple of $50,000 in excess thereof.

      (b) The Swing Line Loans shall, at the request of the Swing Line Lender,
be evidenced by and repayable with interest in accordance with a promissory note
of the Borrower substantially in the form of Exhibit C to this Agreement, with
appropriate insertions (the "Swing Line Note"), payable to the order of the
Swing Line Lender and representing the obligation of the Borrower to pay the
amount of the Swing Line Commitment or, if less, the unpaid principal amount of
the Swing Line Loans, with interest thereon as prescribed in Section 2.16. The
Swing Line Lender is hereby authorized to record the Borrowing Date, the amount
of each Swing Line Loan and the date and amount of each payment or prepayment of
principal thereof, on the schedule annexed to and constituting a part of the
Swing Line Note and any such recordation shall constitute prima facie evidence
of the accuracy of the information so recorded, provided that the failure by the
Swing Line Lender to make any such recordation shall not affect any of the
obligations of the Borrower under such Swing Line Note or this Agreement. The
Swing Line

                                CREDIT AGREEMENT



                                                                              26

Note shall (a) be dated the Closing Date, (b) be stated to mature on the
Revolving Credit Termination Date and (c) bear interest for the period from the
date thereof until paid in full on the unpaid principal amount thereof from time
to time outstanding at the applicable interest rate per annum determined as
provided in, and payable as specified in, Section 2.16.

      (c) The Swing Line Lender at any time in its sole and absolute discretion
may, on behalf of the Borrower (which hereby irrevocably directs the Swing Line
Lender to act on its behalf) request each Lender, including the Swing Line
Lender, to make a Revolving Credit Loan that shall be initially an ABR Loan in
an amount equal to such Lender's Commitment Percentage of the amount of the
Swing Line Loans outstanding on the date such notice is given (the "Outstanding
Swing Line Loans"). Unless any of the events described in paragraph (f) of
Section 7 shall have occurred with respect to the Borrower (in which event the
procedures of paragraph (e) of this Section shall apply) each Lender shall make
the proceeds of its Revolving Credit Loan available to the Administrative Agent
for the account of the Swing Line Lender at the office of the Administrative
Agent specified in Section 10.2 prior to 12:00 Noon (New York City time) in
funds immediately available on the Business Day next succeeding the date such
notice is given. The proceeds of such Revolving Credit Loans shall be
immediately applied to repay the Outstanding Swing Line Loans. Effective on the
day such Revolving Credit Loans are made, the portion of the Swing Line Loans so
paid shall no longer be outstanding as Swing Line Loans, shall no longer be due
under the Swing Line Note and shall be evidenced as provided in subsection
2.7(b). The Borrower authorizes the Swing Line Lender to charge the Borrower's
accounts with the Administrative Agent (up to the amount available in each such
account) in order to immediately pay the amount of such Outstanding Swing Line
Loans to the extent amounts received from the Lenders are not sufficient to
repay in full such Outstanding Swing Line Loans.

      (d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Swing Line Lender
shall not be obligated to make any Swing Line Loans if the conditions set forth
in Section 4.2 have not been satisfied.

      (e) If prior to the making of a Revolving Credit Loan pursuant to
subsection 2.20(c) one of the events described in paragraph (f) of Section 7
shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to the Borrower, each Lender
will, on the date such Revolving Credit Loan was to have been made pursuant to
the notice in subsection 2.20(c), purchase an undivided participating interest
in the Outstanding Swing Line Loan in an amount equal to (i) its Commitment
Percentage times (ii) the aggregate principal amount of Swing Line Loans then
outstanding. Each Lender will immediately transfer to the Swing Line Lender, in
immediately available funds, the amount of its participation, and upon receipt
thereof the Swing Line Lender will deliver to such Lender a Swing Line Loan
Participation Certificate dated the date of receipt of such funds and in such
amount.

      (f) Whenever, at any time after any Lender has purchased a participating
interest in a Swing Line Loan, the Swing Line Lender receives any payment on
account thereof, the Swing Line Lender will distribute to such Lender its
participating interest in such amount (appropriately adjusted, in the case of
interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Lender's
participating interest was outstanding and funded); provided, however, that in
the event that such payment received by the Swing Line Lender is required to be
returned, such Lender will return to the Swing Line Lender any portion thereof
previously distributed by the Swing Line Lender to it.

                                CREDIT AGREEMENT



                                                                              27

      (g) Each Lender's obligation to make the Revolving Credit Loans referred
to in subsection 2.20(c) and to purchase participating interests pursuant to
subsection 2.20(e) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected
by any circumstance, including, without limitation, (i) any set-off,
counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender or the
Borrower may have against the Swing Line Lender, the Borrower or any other
Person for any reason whatsoever, (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a
Default or an Event of Default; (iii) any adverse change in the condition
(financial or otherwise) of the Borrower; (iv) any breach of this Agreement or
any other Loan Document by the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any other Lender; or
(v) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not
similar to any of the foregoing.

            2.21 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if the
adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or
application thereof shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain
LIBOR Loans as contemplated by this Agreement, (a) the commitment of such Lender
hereunder to make LIBOR Loans, continue LIBOR Loans as such and convert ABR
Loans to LIBOR Loans shall forthwith be cancelled and (b) such Lender's Loans
then outstanding as LIBOR Loans, if any, shall be converted automatically to ABR
Loans on the respective last days of the then current Interest Periods with
respect to such Loans or within such earlier period as required by law. If any
such conversion of a LIBOR Loan occurs on a day which is not the last day of the
then current Interest Period with respect thereto, the Borrower shall pay to
such Lender such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to Section 2.22.

            2.22 Requirements of Law. (a) If the adoption of or any change in
any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof or
compliance by any Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having
the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority made
subsequent to the date hereof:

            (i) shall subject any Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with
      respect to this Agreement, any Note or any LIBOR Loan made by it, or
      change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender in respect thereof
      (except for Non-Excluded Taxes covered by Section 2.23 and changes in the
      rate of tax on the overall net income of such Lender);

            (ii) shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special
      deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by,
      deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or
      other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any
      office of such Lender which is not otherwise included in the determination
      of the London Interbank Offered Rate hereunder; or

            (iii) shall impose on such Lender any other condition;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender,
by an amount which such Lender deems to be material, of making, converting into,
continuing or maintaining LIBOR Loans or to reduce any amount receivable
hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any such case, the Borrower shall
promptly pay such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate
such Lender for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable.

      (b) If any Lender shall have determined that the adoption of or any change
in any Requirement of Law regarding capital adequacy or in the interpretation or
application thereof or

                                CREDIT AGREEMENT



                                                                              28

compliance by such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender with any
request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force
of law) from any Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date hereof shall
have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender's or such
corporation's capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level
below that which such Lender or such corporation could have achieved but for
such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender's or
such corporation's policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount
deemed by such Lender to be material, then from time to time, the Borrower shall
promptly pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate
such Lender for such reduction.

      (c) If any Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts
pursuant to paragraphs (a) or (b) of this Section 2.22, it shall promptly notify
the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of the event by reason of
which it has become so entitled and of the basis for the calculation of such
additional amounts; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to
compensate a Lender pursuant to such paragraph for any increased costs incurred
more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of
the change giving rise to such increased costs and of such Lender's intention to
claim compensation therefor; provided, further that, if the change giving rise
to such increased costs is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to
above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. A
certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section
submitted by such Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative
Agent) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. The agreements in
this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of
the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

            2.23 Taxes. (a) All payments made by the Borrower under this
Agreement and any Notes shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction
or withholding for or on account of, any present or future income, stamp or
other taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings,
now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any
Governmental Authority, excluding net income taxes and franchise taxes (imposed
in lieu of net income taxes) imposed on the Administrative Agent or any Lender
as a result of a present or former connection between the Administrative Agent
or such Lender and the jurisdiction of the Governmental Authority imposing such
tax or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (other
than any such connection arising solely from the Administrative Agent or such
Lender having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received a
payment under, or enforced, this Agreement or any Note). If any such
non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees deductions or
withholdings ("Non-Excluded Taxes" ) are required to be withheld from any
amounts payable to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder or under any
Note, the amounts so payable to the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall be
increased to the extent necessary to yield to the Administrative Agent or such
Lender (after payment of all Non-Excluded Taxes) interest or any such other
amounts payable hereunder at the rates or in the amounts specified in this
Agreement, provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be required to
increase any such amounts payable to any Lender that is not organized under the
laws of the United States or a state thereof if such Lender fails to comply with
the requirements of paragraph (b) of this Section. Whenever any Non-Excluded
Taxes are payable by the Borrower, as promptly as possible thereafter the
Borrower shall send to the Administrative Agent for its own account or for the
account of such Lender, as the case may be, a certified copy of an original
official receipt received by the Borrower showing payment thereof. If the
Borrower fails to pay any Non-Excluded Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing
authority or fails to remit to the Administrative Agent the required receipts or
other

                                CREDIT AGREEMENT



                                                                              29

required documentary evidence, the Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative
Agent and the Lenders for any incremental taxes, interest or penalties that may
become payable by the Administrative Agent or any Lender as a result of any such
failure. The agreements in this Section shall survive the termination of this
Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

      (b) Each Lender that is not incorporated under the laws of the United
States or a state thereof shall:

            (i) deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two duly
      completed copies of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 BEN or
      W-8 ECI, or successor applicable form, as the case may be;

            (ii) deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two
      further copies of any such form or certification on or before the date
      that any such form or certification expires or becomes obsolete and after
      the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form
      previously delivered by it to the Borrower; and

            (iii) obtain such extensions of time for filing and complete such
      forms or certifications as may reasonably be requested by the Borrower or
      the Administrative Agent;

unless in any such case an event (including, without limitation, any change in
treaty, law or regulation) has occurred prior to the date on which any such
delivery would otherwise be required which renders all such forms inapplicable
or which would prevent such Lender from duly completing and delivering any such
form with respect to it and such Lender so advises the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent. Such Lender shall certify that it is entitled to receive
payments under this Agreement without deduction or withholding of any United
States federal income taxes. Each Person that shall become a Lender or a
Participant pursuant to Section 10.6 shall, upon the effectiveness of the
related transfer, be required to provide all of the forms and statements
required pursuant to this Section, provided that in the case of a Participant
such Participant shall furnish all such required forms and statements to the
Lender from which the related participation shall have been purchased.

            2.24 Indemnity. The Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender and to
hold each Lender harmless from any loss or expense which such Lender may sustain
or incur as a consequence of (a) default by the Borrower in making either (i) a
borrowing of LIBOR Loans (including without limitation Term Loans) or LIBOR CAF
Advances or (ii) a conversion into or continuation of LIBOR Loans, in each case
after the Borrower has given a notice requesting the same in accordance with the
provisions of this Agreement (in the case of a borrowing of LIBOR CAF Advances,
so long as the Borrower shall have accepted a CAF Advance offered in connection
with any such notice), (b) default by the Borrower in making any prepayment
after the Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions
of this Agreement or (c) the making of either (i) a prepayment of LIBOR Loans,
LIBOR CAF Advances or Fixed Rate CAF Advances or (ii) a conversion of LIBOR
Loans, in each case on a day which is not the last day of an Interest Period
with respect thereto. Such indemnification shall constitute an amount equal to
the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on
the amount so prepaid, or not so borrowed, converted or continued, for the
period from the date of such prepayment or of such failure to borrow, convert or
continue to the last day of such Interest

                                CREDIT AGREEMENT



                                                                              30

Period (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, the
Interest Period that would have commenced on the date of such failure) in each
case at the applicable rate of interest for such Loans provided for herein
(excluding, however, the Applicable Margin included therein, if any) over (ii)
the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Lender) which would
have accrued to such Lender on such amount by placing such amount on deposit for
a comparable period with leading banks in the interbank eurodollar market. This
covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the
Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

            2.25 Commitment Increases. (a) In the event that Borrower wishes to
increase the aggregate Commitments, it shall notify the Lenders (through the
Administrative Agent) of the amount of such proposed increase (such notice, a
"Commitment Increase Offer"). Each Commitment Increase Offer shall offer the
Lenders the opportunity to participate in the increased Commitments ratably in
accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages. In the event that any
Lender (each, a "Declining Lender") shall fail to accept in writing a Commitment
Increase Offer within 10 Business Days after receiving notice thereof, all or
any portion of the proposed increase in the Commitments offered to the Declining
Lenders (the aggregate of such offered amounts, the "Declined Amount") may
instead be allocated to any one or more additional banks, financial institutions
or other entities pursuant to paragraph (b) below and/or to any one or more
existing Lenders pursuant to paragraph (c)(ii) below.

      (b) Any additional bank, financial institution or other entity (herein
called a "New Lender") which, with the consent of the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent, elects to become a party to this Agreement and obtain a
Commitment in an amount equal to all or any portion of a Declined Amount shall
execute a New Lender Supplement (each, a "New Lender Supplement") with the
Borrower and the Administrative Agent, substantially in the form of Exhibit K-1,
whereupon such New Lender shall become a Lender for all purposes and to the same
extent as if originally a party hereto and shall be bound by and entitled to the
benefits of this Agreement, and Schedule 1.2 shall be deemed to be amended to
add the name and Commitment of such New Lender.

      (c) Any Lender which (i) accepts a Commitment Increase Offer pursuant to
subsection 2.25(a) or (ii) with the consent of the Borrower, elects to increase
its Commitment by an amount equal to all or any portion of a Declined Amount
shall, in each case, execute a Commitment Increase Supplement (each, a
"Commitment Increase Supplement") with the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent, substantially in the form of Exhibit K-2, whereupon such Lender shall be
bound by and entitled to the benefits of this Agreement with respect to the full
amount of its Commitment as so increased, and Schedule 1.2 shall be deemed to be
amended to so increase the Commitment of such Lender.

      (d) If on the date upon which a bank, financial institution or other
entity becomes a New Lender pursuant to subsection 2.25(b) or upon which a
Lender's Commitment is increased pursuant to subsection 2.25(c) there is an
unpaid principal amount of Revolving Credit Loans, the Borrower shall borrow
Revolving Credit Loans from the Lenders and/or (subject to compliance by the
Borrower with Section 2.24) prepay Revolving Credit Loans of the Lenders such
that, after giving effect thereto, the Revolving Credit Loans (including,
without limitation, the Types thereof and Interest Periods with respect thereto)
shall be held by the Lenders (including for such purposes the New Lenders) pro
rata according to their respective Commitment Percentages.

                                CREDIT AGREEMENT



                                                                              31

      (e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section, (i) in no
event shall any transaction effected pursuant to this Section cause (x) the
aggregate Commitments to exceed $2,000,000,000 or (y) an increase in the
aggregate Commitments of an amount less than $100,000,000, (ii) the aggregate
amount of any increase in Commitments pursuant to subsection 2.25(b) and (c)(ii)
shall be limited to the relevant Declined Amount and (iii) no Lender shall have
any obligation to increase its Commitment unless it agrees to do so in its sole
discretion.

            2.26 Commitment Extensions. (a) The Borrower may, not earlier than
60 days and not later than 45 days before the Revolving Credit Termination Date,
by notice to the Administrative Agent request that the Revolving Credit
Termination Date then in effect (the "Existing Revolving Credit Termination
Date") be extended to the date 364 days after the Existing Commitment
Termination Date. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders of
such request.

      (b) Each Lender, in its sole discretion, shall advise the Administrative
Agent whether or not such Lender agrees to such extension. If a Lender agrees to
renew its Commitment (an "Extending Lender"), it shall notify the Administrative
Agent, in writing, of its decision to do so not earlier than 45 days and not
later than 30 days prior to the Existing Revolving Credit Termination Date. A
Lender that determines not to so extend its Commitment shall so notify the
Administrative Agent promptly after making such determination and is herein
called a "Non-Extending Lender". If a Lender does not give timely notice to the
Administrative Agent of whether or not such Lender agrees to such extension, it
shall be deemed to be a Non-Extending Lender.

      (c) The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of each Lender's
determination not earlier than 30 days and not later than 20 days prior to the
Existing Revolving Credit Termination Date.

      (d) The Borrower shall have the right to accept Commitments from New
Lenders, each of which shall be acceptable to the Administrative Agent, in an
aggregate amount equal to the amount of the Commitments of any Non-Extending
Lender, provided that the Extending Lenders shall have the right to increase
their Commitments up to the aggregate amount of the Non-Extending Lenders'
Commitments before the Borrower shall be permitted to substitute any New Lenders
for Non-Extending Lenders.

      (e) If and only if (i) more than 50% of the total of the Commitments is
extended or otherwise committed to by Extending Lenders and any New Lenders, and
(ii) immediately prior to the Existing Revolving Credit Termination Date no
Default has occurred and is continuing and the representations and warranties of
the Borrower set forth in Section 3 shall be true and correct in all material
respects on and as of the Existing Revolving Credit Termination Date as though
made on and as of such date, and subject to each New Lender having executed a
New Lender Supplement (on the effective date of which such New Lender shall
become a Lender for all purposes and to the same extent as if originally a party
hereto and shall be bound by and entitled to the benefits of this Agreement),
then effective on the Existing Revolving Credit Termination Date the Revolving
Credit Termination Date shall be extended to the date 364 days after the
Existing Revolving Credit Termination Date (or, if such day is not a Business
Day, the immediately preceding Business Day) which date shall thereafter be the
Revolving Credit Termination Date, provided that the Commitment of each
Non-Extending Lender shall in any event terminate on the Existing Revolving
Credit Termination Date and the Borrower shall pay

                                CREDIT AGREEMENT



                                                                              32

in full on the Existing Revolving Credit Termination Date all amounts payable to
each Non-Extending Lender hereunder.

                    SECTION 3. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

      To induce the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to enter into this
Agreement and to make the Loans, the Borrower and, in the case of Sections 3.3,
3.4, 3.5 and 3.14, each Obligor with respect to itself, hereby represents and
warrants to the Administrative Agent and each Lender that:

            3.1 Financial Condition. The consolidated balance sheet of the
Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries as at December 31, 2003 and the
related consolidated statements of income and of cash flows for the fiscal year
ended on such date, reported on by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, copies of which
have heretofore been furnished to each Lender, are complete and correct in all
material respects and present fairly the consolidated financial condition of the
Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries as at such date, and the consolidated
results of their operations and their consolidated cash flows for the fiscal
year then ended. The unaudited consolidated balance sheet of the Borrower and
its consolidated Subsidiaries as at March 31, 2004 and the related unaudited
consolidated statements of income and of cash flows for the three-month period
ended on such date, certified by a Responsible Officer, copies of which have
heretofore been furnished to each Lender, are complete and correct in all
material respects and present fairly the consolidated financial condition of the
Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries as at such date, and the consolidated
results of their operations and their consolidated cash flows for the
three-month period then ended (subject to normal year-end audit adjustments).
All such financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP applied
consistently throughout the periods involved (except as approved by such
accountants or Responsible Officer, as the case may be, and as disclosed
therein). Neither the Borrower nor any of its consolidated Subsidiaries had, at
the date of the most recent balance sheet referred to above, any material
Guarantee outside the ordinary course of business, contingent liability or
liability for taxes, or any long-term lease or unusual forward or long-term
commitment which in the aggregate may reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect, including, without limitation, any interest rate or foreign
currency swap or exchange transaction (except as listed on Schedule 3.1 attached
hereto), which is not reflected in the foregoing statements or in the notes
thereto.

            3.2 No Change. Since December 31, 2003 there has been no development
or event which has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect.

            3.3 Existence; Compliance with Law. Each Obligor and its
Subsidiaries (a) is an entity duly organized, validly existing and in good
standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization (provided, that
no representation is made under this clause (a) with respect to any Subsidiary
that is neither an Obligor nor a Material Subsidiary of an Obligor if the
failure of such Subsidiary to be duly organized, validly existing or in good
standing as aforesaid could not reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect), (b) has the power and authority, and the legal right, to own
and operate its property, to lease the property it operates as lessee and to
conduct the business in which it is currently engaged, (c) is duly qualified as
a foreign entity and in good standing under the laws of each jurisdiction (other
than that of its organization) where its ownership, lease or operation of
property or the conduct of its business requires such

                                CREDIT AGREEMENT



                                                                              33

qualification and (d) is in compliance with all Requirements of Law, except in
the case of clause (c) or (d) above, to the extent that the failure to qualify
as a foreign entity or to be in good standing or to comply with any Requirement
of Law could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect.

            3.4 Corporate Power; Authorization; Enforceable Obligations. Each
Obligor has the corporate power and authority, and the legal right, to make,
deliver, and perform the Loan Documents to which it is a party and to borrow
hereunder and has taken all necessary corporate action to authorize the
borrowings on the terms and conditions of this Agreement and any Notes and to
authorize the execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents to which
it is a party. No consent or authorization of, filing with, notice to or other
act by or in respect of, any Governmental Authority or any other Person is
required in connection with the borrowings hereunder or with the execution,
delivery, performance, validity or enforceability of the Loan Documents to which
either Obligor is a party. This Agreement has been, and each other Loan Document
to which it is a party will be, duly executed and delivered on behalf of each
Obligor. This Agreement constitutes, and each other Loan Document to which it is
a party when executed and delivered will constitute, a legal, valid and binding
obligation of each Obligor enforceable against such Obligor in accordance with
its terms, subject to the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent
conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws relating to or
affecting creditors' rights generally, general equitable principles (whether
considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and an implied covenant of good
faith and fair dealing.

            3.5 No Legal Bar. The execution, delivery and performance of the
Loan Documents to which each Obligor is a party, the borrowings hereunder and
the use of the proceeds thereof will not violate any Requirement of Law or
Contractual Obligation of such Obligor and will not result in, or require, the
creation or imposition of any Lien on any of its or their respective properties
or revenues pursuant to any such Requirement of Law or Contractual Obligation.

            3.6 No Material Litigation. Except as listed on Schedule 3.6 or as
previously disclosed in any public filing made by the Borrower prior to the date
hereof, no litigation, investigation or proceeding of or before any arbitrator
or Governmental Authority is pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower,
threatened by or against the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or against any
of its or their respective properties or revenues (a) with respect to any of the
Loan Documents or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or (b)
which could, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect.

            3.7 No Default. Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is
in default under or with respect to any of its Contractual Obligations in any
respect which could, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect. No Default or Event of Default has occurred and
is continuing.

            3.8 Ownership of Property; Liens. Each of the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries has good record and marketable title in fee simple to, or a valid
leasehold interest in, all its real property material to the business of the
Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and good title to, or a valid
leasehold interest in, all its other property material to the business of the

                                CREDIT AGREEMENT



                                                                              34

Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and none of such property is
subject to any Lien except as permitted by Section 6.2.

            3.9 Intellectual Property. The Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries
owns, or is licensed to use, all trademarks, tradenames, copyrights, technology,
know-how and processes necessary for the conduct of its business as currently
conducted except for those the failure to own or license which could not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect (the "Intellectual
Property"). No claim has been asserted and is pending by any Person challenging
or questioning the use of any such Intellectual Property or the validity or
effectiveness of any such Intellectual Property, nor does International know of
any valid basis for any such claim, except for such claims that, in the
aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
The use of such Intellectual Property by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries does
not infringe on the rights of any Person, except for such claims and
infringements that, in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect.

            3.10 No Burdensome Restrictions. No Requirement of Law or
Contractual Obligation of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries could
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

            3.11 Taxes. Each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries has filed or
caused to be filed all tax returns which, to the knowledge of the Borrower, are
required to be filed and has paid all taxes shown to be due and payable on said
returns or on any assessments made against it or any of its property and all
other taxes, fees or other charges imposed on it or any of its property by any
Governmental Authority, except (a) any the amount or validity of which are
currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with
respect to which reserves in conformity with GAAP have been provided on the
books of the Borrower or its Subsidiaries, as the case may be or (b) to the
extent that the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect; no tax Lien has been filed, and, to the knowledge of
the Borrower, no claim is being asserted, with respect to any such tax, fee or
other charge other than any Lien permitted under Section 6.2(a).

            3.12 Federal Margin Regulations. Neither the Borrower nor any of its
Subsidiaries is engaged principally, or as one of its important activities, in
the business of extending credit for the purpose (whether immediate, incidental
or ultimate) of buying or carrying Margin Stock. No part of the proceeds of any
Loans will be used directly or indirectly for the purpose (whether immediate,
incidental or ultimate) of buying or carrying Margin Stock or for any purpose
that violates the provisions of the regulations of the Board. If requested by
any Lender or the Administrative Agent, the Borrower will furnish to each Lender
and the Administrative Agent a statement in conformity with the requirements of
Federal Reserve Form FR U-1 or FR G-3, as appropriate, referred to in Regulation
U, to demonstrate the compliance of any borrowing hereunder with Regulation U.

            3.13 ERISA. Neither a Reportable Event nor an "accumulated funding
deficiency" (within the meaning of Section 412 of the Code or Section 302 of
ERISA) has occurred during the five-year period prior to the date on which this
representation is made or deemed made with respect to any Single Employer Plan
that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and each
Plan has complied with the applicable provisions of ERISA and the Code to the
extent that the failure to comply could not reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect. No termination of a Single Employer Plan has occurred
(other

                                CREDIT AGREEMENT



                                                                              35

than via a "standard termination" as defined in Section 4041(b) of ERISA), and
no Lien in favor of the PBGC or a Single Employer Plan has arisen, during such
five-year period that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect. The excess, if any, of the present value of all accrued benefits under
each Single Employer Plan (based on those assumptions used to fund such Plans),
as of the last annual valuation date prior to the date on which this
representation is made or deemed made, over the value of the assets of such Plan
allocable to such accrued benefits could not reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Borrower nor any Commonly Controlled Entity
has had a complete or partial withdrawal from any Multiemployer Plan that could
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and neither the
Borrower nor any Commonly Controlled Entity would become subject to any
liability under ERISA that could reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect if the Borrower or any such Commonly Controlled Entity were to
withdraw completely from all Multiemployer Plans as of the valuation date most
closely preceding the date on which this representation is made or deemed made.
To the best knowledge of the Borrower, no such Multiemployer Plan is in
Reorganization or Insolvent. The excess, if any, of the present value
(determined using actuarial and other assumptions which are reasonable in
respect of the benefits provided and the employees participating) of the
liability of the Borrower for post retirement benefits to be provided to their
current and former employees under Plans which are welfare benefit plans (as
defined in Section 3(l) of ERISA) over the assets under all such Plans allocable
to such benefits could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect.

            3.14 Investment Company Act; Other Regulations. Neither of the
Obligors is an "investment company", or a company "controlled" by an "investment
company", within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
Neither of the Obligors is subject to regulation under any Federal or State
statute or regulation (other than Regulation X of the Board) which limits its
ability to incur Indebtedness.

            3.15 Subsidiaries. As of the Closing Date, Schedule 3.15 lists each
Subsidiary of the Borrower (and the direct and indirect ownership interest of
the Borrower therein), in each case existing on March 31, 2004.

            3.16 Purpose of Loans. The proceeds of the Loans shall be used by
the Borrower and its Subsidiaries solely (i) to ensure the integrity of the
MasterCard payment system in the event of settlement failure by one or more of
its members, including failure by one or more of its members to meet merchant
payment obligations, and (ii) to refinance outstanding loans, if any, under the
agreement referred to in Section 4.1(i); provided, that up to $300,000,000 of
the proceeds of the Loans may, subject to the provisions of Section 4.3, be used
for general corporate purposes of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries.

            3.17 Environmental Matters. Except to the extent any of the
following could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect:

      (a) To the best knowledge of the Borrower, the facilities and properties
owned, leased or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (the
"Properties") do not contain, and have not previously contained, any Materials
of Environmental Concern in amounts or concentrations which (i) constitute or
constituted a violation of, or (ii) could reasonably be expected to give rise to
liability under, any Environmental Law.

                                CREDIT AGREEMENT



                                                                              36

      (b) The Properties and all operations at the Properties are in compliance
in all material respects with all applicable Environmental Laws, and there is no
contamination at, under or about the Properties or violation of any
Environmental Law with respect to the Properties or the business operated by the
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (the "Business") which could materially
interfere with the continued operation of the Properties or materially impair
the fair saleable value thereof.

      (c) Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries has received any
notice of violation, alleged violation, non-compliance, liability or potential
liability regarding environmental matters or compliance with Environmental Laws
with regard to any of the Properties or the Business, nor does the Borrower have
knowledge or reason to believe that any such notice will be received or is being
threatened.

      (d) No judicial proceeding or governmental or administrative action is
pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened, under any
Environmental Law to which the Borrower or any Subsidiary is or will be named as
a party with respect to the Properties or the Business, nor are there any
consent decrees or other decrees, consent orders, administrative orders or other
orders, or other administrative or judicial requirements outstanding under any
Environmental Law with respect to the Properties or the Business.

            3.18 Solvency. The Borrower is, and after giving effect to each
borrowing hereunder will be, Solvent.

time to time reasonably request.

                                CREDIT AGREEMENT



                                                                              40

                                CREDIT AGREEMENT



                                                                              42

                          SECTION 6. NEGATIVE COVENANTS

      The Borrower hereby agrees that, so long as the Commitments remain in
effect or any amount is owing to any Lender or the Administrative Agent
hereunder or under any other Loan Document, the Borrower shall not and shall not
permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly:

            6.1 Maintenance of Net Worth. Permit Consolidated Net Worth of the

      (i) Any Person or "group" (within the meaning of Section 13(d) or 14(d) of

then, and in any such event, (A) if such event is an Event of Default specified
in clause (i) or (ii) of paragraph (f) of this Section with respect to the
Borrower, automatically the Commitments shall immediately terminate and the
Loans hereunder (with accrued interest thereon) and all other amounts owing
under this Agreement and the Notes shall immediately become due and payable, and
(B) if such event is any other Event of Default, either or both of the following
actions may be taken: (i) with the consent of the Required Lenders, the

and (ii) with the consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent may,
or upon the request of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall, by

                       SECTION 8. THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

            8.1 Appointment. Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and
appoints the Administrative Agent as the agent of such Lender under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and each such Lender irrevocably
authorizes the Administrative Agent, in such capacity, to take such action on
its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents
and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated
to the Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.
Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, the
Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those
expressly set forth herein, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and
no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or
liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or
otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent.

            8.2 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may execute any
of its duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by or through
agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel
concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Administrative Agent shall
not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or
attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care.

            8.3 Exculpatory Provisions. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any
of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates
shall be (i) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it
or such Person under or in connection with this

                                CREDIT AGREEMENT



                                                                              48

Agreement or any other Loan Document (except for its or such Person's own gross
negligence or willful misconduct) or (ii) responsible in any manner to any of
the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by
either Obligor or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or any other
Loan Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other document
referred to or provided for in, or received by the Administrative Agent under or
in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for the value,
validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this
Agreement or any other Loan Document or for any failure of either Obligor to
perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. The Administrative Agent shall
not be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the
observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions
of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties,
books or records of either Obligor or any of its Subsidiaries.

            8.4 Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall
be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any Note,
writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telecopy,
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 and upon advice and statements of legal counsel
(including, without limitation, counsel to either Obligor), independent
accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent. The
Administrative Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the owner
thereof for all purposes unless a written notice of assignment, negotiation or
transfer thereof shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent. The
Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any
action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first
receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders (or such other
Lenders as may be required hereunder) as it deems appropriate or it shall first
be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability
and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to
take any such action. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully
protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders (or
such other Lenders as may be required hereunder), and such request and any
action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the
Lenders and all future holders of the Loans.

            8.5 Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed
to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default
(other than an Event of Default consisting of failure of the Borrower to pay
when due any principal of or interest on a Loan) hereunder unless the
Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring
to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that
such notice is a "notice of default". In the event that the Administrative Agent
receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice
thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with
respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by
the Required Lenders; provided that unless and until the Administrative Agent
shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not
be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with
respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the
best interests of the Lenders.

            8.6 Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each
Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Administrative Agent nor any of
its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates has
made any representations or warranties to it

                                CREDIT AGREEMENT



                                                                              49

and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereinafter taken, including any
review of the affairs of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, shall be
deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent
to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Administrative Agent that it has,
independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other
Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed
appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business,
operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the
Obligors 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 the Administrative 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 analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or
not taking action under the Loan 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 Obligors or any of
their Subsidiaries. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly
required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder,
the Administrative Agent shall not 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 either Obligor or any of their Subsidiaries which may come
into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its officers,
directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates.

            8.7 Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify the
Administrative Agent in its capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed by
the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so),
ratably according to their respective Commitment Percentages in effect on the
date on which indemnification is sought, from and against any and all
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits,
costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any time
(including, without limitation, at any time following the payment of the Loans)
be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any
way relating to or arising out of, the Commitments, this Agreement, (including,
without limitation, enforcement of the Administrative Agent's rights under this
Section) any of the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or
referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby
or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under or in
connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Lender shall be liable
for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses,
damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements
resulting from the Administrative Agent's gross negligence or willful
misconduct. The agreements in this Section shall survive the payment of the
Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

            8.8 Administrative Agent in Its Individual Capacity. The
Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from
and generally engage in any kind of business with the Obligors as though the
Administrative Agent were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the
other Loan Documents. With respect to the Loans made by it, the Administrative
Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the
Administrative Agent, and the terms "Lender" and "Lenders" shall include the
Administrative Agent in its individual capacity.

            8.9 Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may
resign as Administrative Agent upon 10 days' notice to the Lenders, and the
Administrative Agent may be

                                CREDIT AGREEMENT



                                                                              50

removed at any time with or without cause by the Required Lenders. Upon any such
resignation or removal, the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the
Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders, which successor agent (provided that
it shall have been approved by the Borrower (such approval not to be
unreasonably withheld)), shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the
Administrative Agent hereunder. Effective upon such appointment and approval,
the term "Administrative Agent" shall mean such successor agent, and the former
Administrative Agent's rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall
be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such
former Administrative Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement or any
holders of the Loans. After any retiring Administrative Agent's resignation or
removal as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 8 shall inure to
its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was
Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

            8.10 Substitute Administrative Agent. If at any time Citibank or the
Borrower reasonably determines that Citibank is prevented from carrying out its
functions as Administrative Agent hereunder as contemplated hereby, Citibank or
the Borrower, as the case may be, shall forthwith so notify the Borrower or
Citibank, as the case may be, and the Backup Agent (and Citibank shall promptly

becoming payable by the Borrower under the Loan Documents, in each case strictly
in accordance with the terms thereof (collectively, the "Guaranteed
Obligations"). The Guarantor hereby further agrees that if the Borrower shall

            performance of the terms of all or any part of the Guaranteed
            Obligations or any Loan Document, or any other agreement or
            instrument whatsoever relating thereto, or any modification of the

            other guarantee of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations;

                  (C) any application of the proceeds of any other guarantee
            (including without limitation the obligations of any other guarantor
            of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations) to all or any part
            of the Guaranteed Obligations in any such manner and to such extent
            as the Administrative Agent may determine;

                  (D) any release of any other Person (including without
            limitation any other guarantor with respect to all or any part of
            the Guaranteed Obligations) from any personal liability with respect
            to all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations;

                  (E) any settlement, compromise, release, liquidation or
            enforcement, upon such terms and in such manner as the
            Administrative Agent may determine or as applicable law may dictate,

            guarantee of (including without limitation any letter of credit
            issued with respect to) all or any part of the Guaranteed
            Obligations;

            of, the sale of substantial assets by, or other restructuring or

            Lenders under the Loan Documents or otherwise in such order and such

            whether the Administrative Agent or the Lenders shall have proceeded

                                                                              54

otherwise, against the Borrower or any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed

and of counsel to the Administrative Agent, (c) to pay, indemnify, and hold
harmless each Lender, the Administrative Agent, their respective affiliates and
their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors (each, an
"Indemnitee") from, any and all recording and filing fees and any and all
liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, stamp,
excise and other taxes, if any, which may be payable or determined to be payable
in connection with the execution and delivery of, or consummation or
administration of any of the transactions contemplated by, or any amendment,
supplement or modification of, or any waiver or consent under or in respect of,
this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any such other documents, and (d)
to pay, indemnify, and hold harmless each Indemnitee from and against any and
all other liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions,
judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature
whatsoever (including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees) with respect
to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of this
Agreement (including, without limitation, this Section), the other Loan
Documents and any such other documents, including, without limitation, any
investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding relating to the foregoing
or any of the foregoing relating to any actual or proposed use of proceeds of
the Loans or the violation of, noncompliance with or liability under, any
Environmental Law applicable to the operations of either Obligor, any of their
Subsidiaries or any of the Properties or arising out of the Commitments (all the
foregoing in this clause (d), collectively, the "indemnified liabilities"),
provided that the Borrower shall have no obligation hereunder to any Indemnitee
with respect to indemnified liabilities arising from the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. The Borrower waives, to the

                                CREDIT AGREEMENT



                                                                              58

maximum extent not prohibited by law, any right it may have to claim or recover
in any legal action or proceeding referred to in this Section any special,
exemplary, punitive or consequential damages. The agreements in this Section
shall survive repayment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

            10.6 Successors and Assigns; Participations and Assignments.

      (a) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns, except that neither
Obligor may assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this
Agreement without the prior written consent of each Lender.

      (b) Any Lender may, in the ordinary course of its commercial banking
business and in accordance with applicable law, at any time sell to one or more
banks or other entities ("Participants") participating interests in any Loan
owing to such Lender, any Commitment or Swing Line Commitment of such Lender or
any other interest of such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents.
In the event of any such sale by a Lender of a participating interest to a
Participant, such Lender's obligations under this Agreement to the other parties
to this Agreement shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely
responsible for the performance thereof, such Lender shall remain the holder of
any such Loan for all purposes under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents, and the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall continue to deal
solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and
obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. No Lender shall
be entitled to create in favor of any Participant, in the participation
agreement pursuant to which such Participants participating interest shall be
created or otherwise, any right to vote on, consent to or approve any matter
relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document except for those specified
in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of the proviso to Section 10.1. The Borrower
agrees that if amounts outstanding under this Agreement are due or unpaid, or
shall have been declared or shall have become due and payable upon the
occurrence of an Event of Default, each Participant shall, to the maximum extent
permitted by applicable law, be deemed to have the right of setoff in respect of
its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement to the same
extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it
as a Lender under this Agreement, provided that, in purchasing such
participating interest, such Participant shall be deemed to have agreed to share
with the Lenders the proceeds thereof as provided in subsection 10.7(a) as fully
as if it were a Lender hereunder. The Borrower also agrees that each Participant
shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.19, 2.20, 2.22 and 2.23 with
respect to its participation in the Commitments, Swing Line Commitments and the
Loans outstanding from time to time as if it was a Lender; provided that, in the
case of Section 2.23, such Participant shall have complied with the requirements
of said Section and provided, further, that no Participant shall be entitled to
receive any greater amount pursuant to any such Section than the transferor
Lender would have been entitled to receive in respect of the amount of the
participation transferred by such transferor Lender to such Participant had no
such transfer occurred.

      (c) Subject to the provisions of subsection 10.6(d) relating to the
assignment of CAF Advances, any Lender may, in the ordinary course of its
commercial banking business and in accordance with applicable law, at any time
and from time to time assign to one or more banks or other financial
institutions, including a finance company or fund (whether a corporation,
partnership or other entity) which is engaged in making, purchasing or otherwise
investing in

                                CREDIT AGREEMENT



                                                                              59

commercial loans in the ordinary course of its business, and having total assets
in excess of $500,000,000, (such bank or financial institution, an "Assignee")
all or any part of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents; provided, however, that

            (i) except in the case of an assignment (A) to a Lender or subject
      to giving prior written notice thereof to the Borrower and the
      Administrative Agent, an Affiliate of a Lender which is a bank or
      financial institution or (B) of CAF Advances, each of the Administrative
      Agent and (except when a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred
      and be continuing) the Borrower must give its consent to such assignment
      (which in each case shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed);

            (ii) the Swing Line Lender may not transfer any portion of the Swing
      Line Commitment without the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to
      be unreasonably withheld or delayed);

            (iii) in the case of any assignment to any Assignee that is not a
      Lender or an Affiliate thereof, the sum of the aggregate principal amount
      of the Loans and the aggregate amount of the Commitments and Swing Line
      Commitments being assigned and, if such assignment is of less than all of
      the rights and obligations of the assigning Lender, the sum of the
      aggregate principal amount of the Loans and the aggregate amount of the
      Commitments and Swing Line Commitments remaining with the assigning Lender
      are each not less than $5,000,000 (or such lesser amount as may be agreed
      to by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent); and

      (iv) such assignment shall be evidenced by an Assignment and Acceptance,
substantially in the form of Exhibit H, executed by such Assignee, such
assigning Lender (and, in the case of an Assignee that is not then a Lender or
an Affiliate thereof, by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent) and
delivered to the Administrative Agent for its acceptance and recording in the
Register.

Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the
effective date determined pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, (x) the
Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent provided in such
Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder
with a Commitment or Swing Line Commitment as set forth therein, and (y) the
assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent provided in such Assignment and
Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the
case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an
assigning Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement such assigning
Lender shall cease to be a party hereto). Notwithstanding any provision of this
paragraph (c) and paragraph (f) of this Section, the consent of the Borrower
shall not be required, and, unless requested by the Assignee and/or the
assigning Lender, new Notes shall not be required to be executed and delivered
by the Borrower, for any assignment which occurs at any time when any of the
events described in Section 7(f) shall have occurred and be continuing.

      (d) Any Lender may, in the ordinary course of its commercial banking
business and in accordance with applicable law, at any time and from time to
time assign to one or more banks, financial institutions or other entities ("CAF
Advance Assignees") any CAF Advance owing to such Lender, pursuant to a CAF
Advance Assignment, substantially in the form of Exhibit D-4 attached hereto,
executed by the assignor Lender and the CAF Advance Assignee. Upon such

                                CREDIT AGREEMENT



                                                                              60

execution, from and after the date of such CAF Advance Assignment, the CAF
Advance Assignee shall, to the extent of the assignment provided for in such CAF
Advance Assignment, be deemed to have the same rights and benefits of payment
and enforcement with respect to such CAF Advance and the same rights of set-off
and obligation to share pursuant to Section 10.7 as it would have had if it were
a Lender hereunder; provided that unless such CAF Advance Assignment shall
otherwise specify and a copy of such CAF Advance Assignment shall have been
delivered to the Administrative Agent for its acceptance and recording in the
Register in accordance with subsection 10.6(e), the assignor thereunder shall
act as collection agent for the CAF Advance Assignee thereunder, and the
Administrative Agent shall pay all amounts received from the Borrower which are
allocable to the assigned CAF Advance directly to such assignor without any
further liability to such CAF Advance Assignee. A CAF Advance Assignee under a
CAF Advance Assignment shall not, by virtue of such CAF Advance Assignment,
become a party to this Agreement or have any rights to consent to or refrain
from consenting to any amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision
of this Agreement or any related document; provided that (x) the assignor under
such CAF Advance Assignment and such CAF Advance Assignee may, in their
discretion, agree between themselves upon the manner in which such assignor will
exercise its rights under this Agreement and any related document except no
Lender shall sell any CAF Advance pursuant to which the CAF Advance Assignee
shall have rights to approve any amendment or waiver to this Agreement except to
the extent such amendment or waiver would (i) reduce the principal amount of any
CAF Advance which has been assigned to such CAF Advance Assignee, (ii) reduce
the rate of interest on any such CAF Advance or any fees payable in connection
with such CAF Advance or (iii) extend the time of payment of principal or, or
interest on, any such CAF Advance or any other amount owing under this Agreement
and in connection with such CAF Advance, and (y) if a copy of such CAF Advance
Assignment shall have been delivered to the Administrative Agent for its
acceptance and recording in the Register in accordance with subsection 10.6(e),
neither the principal amount of, the interest rate on, nor the maturity date of,
any CAF Advance assigned to such CAF Advance Assignee thereunder will be
modified without the written consent of such CAF Advance Assignee. If a CAF
Advance Assignee has caused a CAF Advance Assignment to be recorded in the
Register in accordance with subsection 10.6(e), such CAF Advance Assignee may
thereafter, in the ordinary course of its business and in accordance with
applicable law, assign the CAF Advance assigned to it to any Lender, to any
affiliate or subsidiary of such CAF Advance Assignee or to any other financial
institution with the consent of the Borrower (which shall not be unreasonably
withheld), and the foregoing provisions of this paragraph (c) shall apply,
mutatis mutandis, to any such assignment by a CAF Advance Assignee. Except in
accordance with the preceding sentence, CAF Advances may not be further assigned
by a CAF Advance Assignee, subject to any legal or regulatory requirement that
the CAF Advance Assignee's assets must remain under its control.

      (e) The Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Borrower, shall maintain at
the address of the Administrative Agent referred to in Section 10.2 a copy of
each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register (the "Register")
for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitment
of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender from time to time.
The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest
error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may (and, in
the case of any Loan or other obligation hereunder not evidenced by a Note,
shall) treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of
a Loan or other obligation hereunder as the owner thereof for all purposes of
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, notwithstanding any

                                CREDIT AGREEMENT



                                                                              61

notice to the contrary. Any assignment of any Loan or other obligation hereunder
not evidenced by a Note shall be effective only upon appropriate entries with
respect thereto being made in the Register. The Register shall be available for
inspection by the Borrower or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to
time upon reasonable prior notice.

      (f) Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by an
assigning Lender and an Assignee (and, in the case of an Assignee that is not
then a Lender or an affiliate thereof, by the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent) together with payment to the Administrative Agent of a registration and
processing fee of $3,500 and (if the Assignee is not a Lender) delivery to the
Administrative Agent of such Assignee's Administrative Questionnaire, the
Administrative Agent shall (i) promptly accept such Assignment and Acceptance
and (ii) on the effective date determined pursuant thereto record the
information contained therein in the Register and give notice of such acceptance
and recordation to the Lenders and the Borrower.

      (g) The Borrower authorizes each Lender to disclose to any Participant or
Assignee (each, a "Transferee") and any prospective Transferee any and all
financial information in such Lender's possession concerning the Borrower and
its Subsidiaries and Affiliates which has been delivered to such Lender by or on
behalf of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to this Agreement or
which has been delivered to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower or any
of its Subsidiaries in connection with such Lender's credit evaluation of the
Borrower and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates prior to becoming a party to this
Agreement.

      (h) For avoidance of doubt, the parties to this Agreement acknowledge that
the provisions of this Section concerning assignments of Loans and Notes relate
only to absolute assignments and that such provisions do not prohibit
assignments creating security interests, including, without limitation, any
pledge or assignment by a Lender of any Loan or Note to any Federal Reserve Bank
in accordance with applicable law.

            10.7 Adjustments; Set-off. (a) If any Lender (a "benefitted Lender")
shall at any time receive any payment of all or part of its Loans, or interest
thereon, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or
involuntarily, by set-off, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature
referred to in Section 7(f), or otherwise), in a greater proportion than any
such payment to or collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect
of such other Lender's Loans, or interest thereon, such benefitted Lender shall
purchase for cash from the other Lenders a participating interest in such
portion of each such other Lender's Loan, or shall provide such other Lenders
with the benefits of any such collateral, or the proceeds thereof, as shall be
necessary to cause such benefitted Lender to share the excess payment or
benefits of such collateral or proceeds ratably with each of the Lenders;
provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits
is thereafter recovered from such benefitted Lender, such purchase shall be
rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such
recovery, but without interest.

      (b) In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law,
each Lender shall have the right, without prior notice to either Obligor, any
such notice being expressly waived by each of them to the extent permitted by
applicable law, upon any amount becoming due and payable by either Obligor
hereunder (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) to set off
and appropriate and apply against such amount any and all deposits (general or
special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other
credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or
indirect, absolute or

                                CREDIT AGREEMENT



                                                                              62

contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Lender or
any branch or agency thereof to or for the credit or the account of such
Obligor; provided that no such set-off and application may be made against
deposits in the accounts listed on Schedule 10.7(b) attached hereto. Each Lender
agrees promptly to notify such Obligor and the Administrative Agent after any
such set-off and application made by such Lender, provided that the failure to
give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

            10.8 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by one or more of
the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts (including
by facsimile transmission), and all of said counterparts taken together shall be
deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. A set of the copies of this
Agreement signed by all the parties shall be lodged with International and the
Administrative Agent.

            10.9 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is
prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction,
be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without
invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or
unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render
unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

            10.10 Integration. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents
represent the entire agreement of the Obligors, the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof, and there are no promises,
undertakings, representations or warranties by the Administrative Agent or any
Lender relative to subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to
herein or in the other Loan Documents.

            10.11 Termination of Commitments and Swing Line Commitments. The
Commitments and Swing Line Commitments shall terminate if the conditions to
closing set forth in Section 4.1 (subject to Section 4.3) shall not be satisfied
on or before June 30, 2004.

            10.12 GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS
OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

            10.13 Submission To Jurisdiction; Waivers. Each Obligor hereby
irrevocably and unconditionally:

      (a) submits for itself and its property in any legal action or proceeding
relating to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party,
or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof, to the
non-exclusive general jurisdiction of the Courts of the State of New York, the
courts of the United States for the Southern District of New York, and appellate
courts from any thereof;

      (b) consents that any such action or proceeding may be brought in such
courts and waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue
of any such action or proceeding in any such court or that such action or
proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees not to plead or claim
the same;

                                CREDIT AGREEMENT



                                                                              63

      (c) agrees that service of process in any such action or proceeding may be
effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any
substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to it at its address set
forth in Section 10.2 or at such other address of which the Administrative Agent
shall have been notified pursuant thereto;

      (d) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect service of
process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right to sue in
any other jurisdiction; and

      (e) waives, to the maximum extent not prohibited by law, any right it may
have to claim or recover in any legal action or proceeding referred to in this
Section any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages.

            10.14 Acknowledgements. Each Obligor hereby acknowledges that:

      (a) it has been advised by counsel in the negotiation, execution and
delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents;

      (b) neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender has any fiduciary
relationship with or duty to it arising out of or in connection with this
Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and the relationship between
Administrative Agent and Lenders, on one hand, and the Obligors, on the other
hand, in connection herewith or therewith is solely that of debtor and creditor;
and

      (c) no joint venture is created hereby or by the other Loan Documents or
otherwise exists by virtue of the transactions contemplated hereby among the
Lenders or among the Obligors and the Lenders.

            10.15 WAIVERS OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OBLIGOR, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT
AND THE LENDERS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN
ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN
DOCUMENT AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN.

            10.16 Confidentiality. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any
Lender shall disclose any Confidential Information to any Person without the
consent of the Borrower, other than (a) to the Administrative Agent's or such
Lender's Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents
and advisors and, subject to the execution of an agreement for the benefit of
the Borrower to comply with the provisions of this Section, to actual or
prospective assignees and participants, (b) to the extent required by any
applicable law, rule or regulation or judicial process, (c) to any rating agency
when required by it, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the
exercise of any remedies hereunder and (f) as requested or required by any
state, federal or foreign authority or examiner regulating banks or banking.

            10.17 USA PATRIOT Act. Each Lender hereby notifies each Obligor that
pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56
(signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the "Act"), it is required to obtain,
verify and record information that identifies each Obligor, which information
includes the name and address of such Obligor and other information that will
allow such Lender to identify each Obligor in accordance with the Act.

the account of the CAF Advance Assignee under the CAF Advance; the Assignor
Lender will immediately pay over to the CAF Advance Assignee any such amounts
received by it, in like funds as received.

the representation and warranty that it is the legal and beneficial owner of the
interest being assigned hereby free and clear of any adverse claim and has the
corporate power and authority, and the legal right to sell, assign and transfer

representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any
statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with the
Credit Agreement or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto
or with respect to the execution, legality, validity, enforceability,
genuineness, sufficiency or value of the Credit Agreement or such other
instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto; (ii) the Assignor Lender
makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect
to the financial condition of the Borrower or the performance or observance by
the Borrower of any of its obligations under the Credit Agreement or any other

Assignee confirms that it has received a copy of the Credit Agreement, together
with copies of the financial statements referred to in Section 3.1, the
financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 5.1, if any, and such other
documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit
analysis and decision to enter into this CAF Advance Assignment; (iv) the CAF
Advance Assignee will, independently and without reliance upon the
Administrative Agent the Assignor Lender 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 respect of the Credit Agreement; and (v) the
CAF Advance Assignee appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take
such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under the Credit
Agreement as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms thereof,
together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, all in
accordance with Section 8 of the Credit Agreement.

            5. Each party hereto represents and warrants to and agrees with the
Administrative Agent that it is aware of and will comply with the provisions of
Section 10.6 of the Credit Agreement.



                                                                               3

             [FORM OF OPINION OF GENERAL COUNSEL TO THE BORROWER AND
                                 INTERNATIONAL]

                                                                   June 18, 2004

To (a) the several banks and other financial
   institutions parties on the date hereof to the
   Agreement referred to below, (b) JPMorgan
   Chase Bank, as Backup Agent under said
   Agreement and (c) Citibank, N.A., as
   Administrative Agent under said Agreement.

Dear Sirs:

            I am General Counsel of MasterCard Incorporated, a Delaware
corporation (the "Borrower") and MasterCard International Incorporated, a
Delaware corporation ("International" and together with the Borrower, the
"Obligors"), and am familiar with the Credit Agreement, dated as of June 18,
2004 (the "Agreement"), among the Borrower, MasterCard International, the banks
and other financial institutions parties thereto (the "Lenders"), JPMorgan Chase
Bank, as Backup Agent for the Lenders (in such capacity, the "Backup Agent"),
and Citibank, N.A., as Administrative Agent for the Lenders (in such capacity,
the "Administrative Agent"). This opinion is delivered to you pursuant to
subsection 4.1(h)(i) of the Agreement. Terms used herein which are defined in
the Agreement shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Agreement,
unless otherwise defined herein.

            In connection with this opinion, I have examined an executed copy of
the Agreement, and such corporate documents and records of each Obligor and its
Subsidiaries and certificates of public officials and officers of each Obligor
and its Subsidiaries, and such other documents, as I have deemed necessary or
appropriate for the purposes of this opinion. For the purposes of this opinion,
I have assumed (i) the genuineness of all signatures of, and the authority of,
Persons signing the Agreement on behalf of parties thereto other than the
Obligors, (ii) the authenticity of all documents submitted to me as originals
and (iii) the conformity to authentic original documents of all documents
submitted to me as certified, conformed or photostatic copies.

            Based upon the foregoing, I am of the opinion that:

            i. Each Obligor and its Subsidiaries (a) is an entity duly
organized, validly existing and in good standing (to the extent applicable)
under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation, (b) has the power and
authority, and the legal right, to own and operate its property, to lease the
property it operates as lessee and to conduct the business in which it is
currently engaged and (c) is duly qualified as a foreign entity and in good
standing under the laws of each jurisdiction where its ownership, lease or
operation of property or the conduct of its business requires such
qualification, except where the failure to be so qualified and in good standing
could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect.



                                                                               2

            ii. The execution, delivery and performance by each Obligor of the
Agreement are within the corporate powers of such Obligor, have been duly
authorized by all necessary corporate action (including any necessary
shareholder approval), require no governmental approval, and do not contravene
any law or regulation applicable to, including, without limitation, Regulation
T, U or X of the Board, or any contractual restriction binding on, each Obligor.

            iii. The Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by each
Obligor and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of each Obligor,
enforceable against it in accordance with its terms except as enforceability may
be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or
similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally and by
general equitable principles (whether enforcement is sought by proceedings in
equity or at law). No consent or authorization of, filing with, notice to or
other act by or in respect of any Governmental Authority or any other Person is
required in connection with the borrowings hereunder or with the execution,
delivery, performance or validity of the Agreement other than those expressly
required by the terms of the Agreement.

            iv. To the best of my knowledge after due inquiry, except to the
extent set forth in Schedule 3.6 attached to the Agreement or as previously
disclosed in any public filings made by the Borrower, there are no pending or
threatened actions or proceedings affecting either Obligor or any of its
Subsidiaries which, if determined adversely to either Obligor or such
Subsidiary, would have a Material Adverse Effect.

            v. Neither Obligor is an "investment company" or a company
"controlled" by an "investment company", within the meaning of the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended. Neither Obligor is a "Holding Company" or a
"Subsidiary Company" of a "Holding Company" or an "Affiliate" of a "Holding
Company", as such terms are defined in the Public Utility Holding Company Act of
1935, as amended.

            I am a member of the Bar of the State of New York and express no
opinion on any laws other than the laws of the State of New York, the Delaware
Corporation Law and the federal laws of the United States.

                                Very truly yours,



                                                                     EXHIBIT F-2

               [FORM OF OPINION OF SPECIAL NEW YORK COUNSEL TO THE
                              ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT]

                                                                   June 18, 2004

To each of the Lenders,
  the Backup Agent, and
  the Administrative Agent party to the
  Credit Agreement referred to below

Ladies and Gentlemen:

            We have acted as special New York counsel to Citibank, N.A., as
administrative agent (in such capacity, the "Administrative Agent") in
connection with the Credit Agreement dated as of June 18, 2004 (the "Credit
Agreement"), among MasterCard Incorporated (the "Borrower"), MasterCard
International Incorporated (the "Guarantor" and, together with the Borrower, the
"Credit Parties"), the several banks and other financial institutions from time
to time parties thereto (the "Lenders"), JPMorgan Chase Bank, as back-up
administrative agent (in such capacity, the "Backup Agent") and the
Administrative Agent.

            This opinion is furnished to you pursuant to Section 4.1(h)(ii) of
the Credit Agreement. Unless otherwise defined herein, terms defined in the
Credit Agreement are used herein as therein defined.

            In arriving at the opinions expressed below, we have examined and
relied on the Credit Agreement and we have made such investigations of law as we
have deemed appropriate for purposes of this opinion.

            In our examination, we have assumed the authenticity of all
documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity with authentic
original documents of all documents submitted to us as copies. When relevant
facts were not independently established, we have relied upon representations
made in or pursuant to the Credit Agreement.

            In rendering the opinions expressed below, we have assumed, with
respect to the Credit Agreement, that:

            (i) the Credit Agreement has been duly authorized by, has been duly
executed and delivered by, and (except to the extent set forth in the opinions
below as to the Credit Parties) constitutes the legal, valid, binding and
enforceable obligation of, all of the parties thereto;

            (ii) all signatories to the Credit Agreement have been duly
authorized;

            (iii) all of the parties to the Credit Agreement are duly organized
and validly existing under the laws of their respective jurisdictions of
incorporation and have the power and authority (corporate or other) to execute,
deliver and perform the Credit Agreement.



                                                                               2

            Based upon and subject to the foregoing and subject also to the
comments and qualifications set forth below, and having considered such
questions of law as we have deemed necessary as a basis for the opinions
expressed below, we are of the opinion that the Credit Agreement constitutes the
legal, valid and binding obligation of each of the Credit Parties party thereto,
enforceable against such Credit Party in accordance with its terms, except as
may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance
or transfer, moratorium or other similar laws relating to or affecting the
rights of creditors generally and except as the enforceability thereof is
subject to the application of general principles of equity (regardless of
whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law), including, without
limitation, (a) the possible unavailability of specific performance, injunctive
relief or any other equitable remedy and (b) concepts of materiality,
reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing.

            The foregoing opinions are subject to the following comments and
qualifications:

            (A) The enforceability of Section 10.5 of the Credit Agreement may
be limited by (i) laws rendering unenforceable indemnification contrary to
Federal or state securities laws and the public policy underlying such laws and
(ii) laws limiting the enforceability of provisions releasing, exculpating or
exempting a party, or requiring indemnification of a party for, liability for
its own action or inaction, to the extent the action or inaction involves gross
negligence, recklessness, wilful misconduct or unlawful conduct.

            (B) The enforceability of provisions in the Credit Agreement to the
effect that terms may not be waived or modified except in writing may be limited
under certain circumstances.

            (C) We express no opinion as to (i) the effect of the laws of any
jurisdiction in which any Lender is located (other than the State of New York)
that limit the interest, fees or other charges such Lender may impose, (ii)
Section 10.7(b) of the Credit Agreement to the extent it purports to grant a
right of set-off, (iii) Section 10.13(a) of the Credit Agreement, insofar as it
relates to the subject matter jurisdiction of any court of the United States of
America sitting in the Southern District of New York to adjudicate any
controversy related to the Credit Agreement, (iv) Section 10.13(b) of the Credit
Agreement insofar as it relates to inconvenient forum with respect to any
Federal court and (v) Section 10.9 of the Credit Agreement.

            (D) We express no opinion as to the applicability to the obligations
of the Guarantor under Section 9 of the Credit Agreement, (or the enforceability
of such obligations under) Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code, Article 10 of the
New York Debtor and Creditor Law or any other provision of law relating to
fraudulent conveyances, transfers or obligations, or the provisions of the law
of the jurisdiction of incorporation of the Guarantor restricting dividends,
loans or other distributions by a corporation for the benefit of its
stockholders.

            The foregoing opinions are limited to matters involving the Federal
laws of the United States of America and the law of the State of New York, and
we do not express any opinion as to the laws of any other jurisdiction.

            This opinion letter is, pursuant to Section 4.1(h)(ii) of the Credit
Agreement, provided to you by us in our capacity as special New York counsel to
the Agent and may not be



                                                                               3

relied upon by any Person for any purpose other than in connection with the
transactions contemplated by the Credit Agreement without, in each instance, our
prior written consent.

WFC/RMG

4

A. Quarterly Pricing Procedure. For each calendar quarter during the Term, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, Issuer Fees for Core Services for Citibank MasterCard Card GDV during such calendar quarter shall be subject to the following ****:

1.	If, for such calendar quarter, the Citibank MasterCard Card GDV was greater than or equal to **** but less than ****, then Citibank’s Issuer Fees for Core Services for such calendar quarter shall be calculated as **** basis points (****) times all Citibank MasterCard Card GDV for such calendar quarter.
2.	If, for such calendar quarter, the Citibank MasterCard Card GDV was greater than or equal to **** but less than ****, then:

a.	Citibank’s Issuer Fees for Core Services for the first **** of Citibank MasterCard Card GDV for such calendar quarter shall be calculated as **** basis points (****) times such **** in Citibank MasterCard Card GDV; and
b.	Citibank’s Issuer Fees for Core Services for the incremental Citibank MasterCard Card GDV in excess of **** for such calendar quarter shall be calculated as **** basis points (****) times such incremental Citibank MasterCard Card GDV.

3.	If, for such calendar quarter, the Citibank MasterCard Card GDV was greater than or equal to ****, then Citibank’s Issuer Fees for Core Services for such calendar quarter shall be calculated as **** basis points (****) times all Citibank MasterCard Card GDV for such calendar quarter.
4.	If, for such calendar quarter, the Citibank MasterCard Card GDV was greater than or equal to **** but less than ****, then Citibank’s Issuer Fees for Core Services for such calendar quarter shall be calculated in accordance with the following:

a.	Calculation of applicable rate in basis points (R) = ****÷ (x ÷ ****)
	where “x” represents the actual Citibank MasterCard Card GDV for such calendar quarter.
b.	Then Citibank’s Issuer Fees for Core Services for such calendar quarter shall be calculated as (R) (determined in accordance with Section II.A.4.a) times all Citibank MasterCard Card GDV for such calendar quarter.
c.	For example, if for such calendar quarter the Citibank MasterCard Card GDV was equal to **** then (i) the applicable rate would be **** basis points (****), calculated as (****÷ (****÷ ****)) and (ii) Citibank’s Issuer Fees for Core Services for such calendar quarter would be calculated as **** times ****.

5. If, for such calendar quarter, the Citibank MasterCard Card GDV was less than ****, then Citibank’s Issuer Fees for Core Services for such calendar quarter shall be calculated in accordance with the following:

a. The first time during the Term that the Citibank MasterCard Card GDV for a calendar quarter is less than **** (the “Initial Instance Quarter”) Citibank’s Issuer Fees for Core Services for such calendar quarter shall be calculated in accordance with Sections II.A.4.a and II.A.4.b above.

5

b. After the Initial Instance Quarter, for any ensuing calendar quarter during the Term that the Citibank MasterCard Card GDV for such calendar quarter is less than ****, then Citibank’s Issuer Fees for Core Services for such calendar quarter shall be mutually agreed to by the Parties, provided, that if the Parties cannot reach an agreement as to the alternative rate within seven (7) days after MasterCard has received all reports required by Section V for such calendar quarter then the Issuer Fees for Core Services for such quarter shall be calculated in accordance with MasterCard Standard Pricing.

6.

Notwithstanding the above, Citibank shall pay MasterCard Standard Pricing on Citibank MasterCard GDV in accordance with the MasterCard Rules; the applicable alternative rates described above will be reflected in a rebate (the “Rebate”) computed by MasterCard using the information provided by Citibank pursuant to Section V. Within thirty (30) days after MasterCard has received all reports required by Section V for a calendar quarter, the Parties will promptly arrange for such payments as are necessary to reflect the application of the appropriate alternative rate, if any, to the actual Citibank MasterCard Card GDV for such calendar quarter. MasterCard shall make portions of each Rebate payment to Citibank USA, N.A. and Citibank Canada by one of the following means, as designated by Citibank: crediting the Citibank USA, N.A. and Citibank Canada accounts in MCBS; wire transfer to an account designated by Citibank; or such other payment method as is reasonably requested by Citibank. The portion of the Rebate payment to Citibank Canada shall be calculated based on the equivalent portion of the GDV that is attributable to Citibank MasterCard Cards issued by Citibank Canada. The remaining Rebate payment shall be paid to Citibank USA, N.A. which shall distribute all or a portion of such remaining amounts to the other Citibank entities that are Parties as it may determine in its reasonable discretion (and shall allocate to such Citibank entities responsibility for any payments owed to MasterCard pursuant to this Agreement in its reasonable discretion). The procedures described in the previous three sentences shall also be used for payments owed to Citibank pursuant to Section II.B.3 below.

7.

Notwithstanding the above, ****.

B. Yearly True-Up Procedure. At the conclusion of each Measurement Period, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Parties shall review the Citibank MasterCard Card GDV during such Measurement Period for the following purposes:

1. If, for such Measurement Period, the Citibank MasterCard Card GDV was greater than or equal to ****, then the Parties shall reconcile the Issuer Fees for Core Services paid by Citibank for the four calendar quarters of such Measurement Period pursuant to Section II.A above (including any Rebate paid by MasterCard to Citibank) in accordance with the following:

a.	If, for such Measurement Period, the Citibank MasterCard Card GDV was greater than or equal to **** but less than ****, then Citibank’s Issuer Fees for Core Services for such Measurement Period shall be calculated as **** basis points (****) times all Citibank MasterCard Card GDV for such Measurement Period.
b.	If, for such Measurement Period, the Citibank MasterCard Card GDV was greater than or equal to **** but less than ****, then:

(i) Citibank’s Issuer Fees for Core Services for the first **** of Citibank MasterCard Card GDV for such Measurement Period shall be calculated as ****basis points (****) times such **** in Citibank MasterCard Card GDV; and

6

(ii) Citibank’s Issuer Fees for Core Services for the incremental Citibank MasterCard Card GDV in excess of **** for such Measurement Period shall be calculated as **** basis points (****) times such incremental Citibank MasterCard Card GDV.

c. If, for such Measurement Period, the Citibank MasterCard Card GDV was greater than or equal to ****, then Citibank’s Issuer Fees for Core Services for such Measurement Period shall be calculated as ****basis points (****) times all Citibank MasterCard Card GDV for such Measurement Period.

2. If, for such Measurement Period, the Citibank MasterCard Card GDV was less than ****, then the Parties shall reconcile the Issuer Fees for Core Services paid by Citibank for the four calendar quarters of such Measurement Period pursuant to Section II.A above (including any Rebate paid by MasterCard to Citibank) in accordance with the following:

a. If, for such Measurement Period, the Citibank MasterCard Card GDV was greater than or equal to **** but less than **** and during such Measurement Period the Citibank MasterCard Active Account Share equaled or exceeded **** (****%) (the “Target Percentage”), then Citibank’s Issuer Fees for Core Services for such Measurement Period shall be calculated as follows:

(i)	Calculation of applicable rate in basis points (R) = **** ÷ (x ÷ ****)
	where “x” represents the actual Citibank MasterCard Card GDV for such Measurement Period.
(ii)	Then Citibank’s Issuer Fees for Core Services for such calendar quarter shall be calculated as (R) (determined in accordance with Section II.B.2.a.(i)) times all Citibank MasterCard Card GDV for such Measurement Period.
(iii)	For example, if for such Measurement Period the Citibank MasterCard Card GDV was equal to **** then (i) the applicable rate would be **** basis points (****), calculated as (**** ÷ (**** ÷ ****)) and (ii) Citibank’s Issuer Fees for Core Services for such Measurement Period would be calculated as ****times ****.

b. If, for such Measurement Period, the Citibank MasterCard Card GDV was greater than or equal to **** but less than **** and during such Measurement Period Citibank did not satisfy the Target Percentage, then Citibank’s Issuer Fees for Core Services for such Measurement Period shall be calculated as follows:

(i)	Calculation of applicable rate in basis points (R) = [(**** ÷ (x ÷ ****)) + ****]
	where “x” represents the actual Citibank MasterCard Card GDV for such Measurement Period.
(ii)	Then Citibank’s Issuer Fees for Core Services for such calendar quarter shall be calculated as (R) (determined in accordance with Section II.B.2.b.(i)) times all Citibank MasterCard Card GDV for such Measurement

7

	Period.
(iii)	For example, if for such Measurement Period the Citibank MasterCard Card GDV was equal to **** and the Target Percentage was not satisfied then (i) the applicable rate would be **** basis points (****), calculated as [(**** ÷ (**** ÷ ****)) + ****] and (ii) Citibank’s Issuer Fees for Core Services for such Measurement Period would be calculated as **** times ****.

c. If, for such Measurement Period, the Citibank MasterCard Card GDV was less than ****, then Citibank’s Issuer Fees for Core Services for such Measurement Period shall be mutually agreed to by the Parties, provided, that if the Parties cannot reach an agreement as to the alternative rate within seven (7) days after MasterCard has received all reports required by Section V for such Measurement Period then the Issuer Fees for Core Services for such Measurement Period shall be calculated in accordance with MasterCard Standard Pricing.

3. Notwithstanding the above, during each calendar quarter of such Measurement Period Citibank shall pay Issuer Fees for Core Services on Citibank MasterCard GDV in accordance with Section II.A; the applicable alternative rates described in this Section II.B will be reflected in an annual rebate to Citibank or annual payment to MasterCard, as applicable (the “True-Up Amount”) computed by MasterCard using the information provided by Citibank pursuant to Section V. Within thirty (30)) days after MasterCard has received all reports required by Section V for such Measurement Period, the Parties will promptly arrange for payment of the True-Up Amount to reflect the application of the appropriate alternative rate, if any, provided in this Section II.B to the actual Citibank MasterCard Card GDV for such Measurement Period.

SECTION III. COMMITMENTS. In consideration of MasterCard’s obligation to provide benefits as provided in this Agreement, Citibank agrees to observe the following commitments:

A.	****.
B.	****.
C.	****.

SECTION IV. CONFIDENTIALITY.

A. In General. The terms of this Agreement and all information provided pursuant to or in connection with either Party’s performance under this Agreement (“Confidential Information”) is confidential and proprietary to the Party providing the Confidential Information (“Disclosing Party”) to the other Party (“Receiving Party”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Confidential Information shall not include information which: (i) is or hereafter becomes part of the public domain through no fault of the Receiving Party; (ii) is received from or furnished to a third party without similar restriction on the third party’s rights; (iii) is independently developed by the Receiving Party; or (iv) is disclosed pursuant to a requirement of Applicable Law. If the Receiving Party asserts that any exception set out in the preceding sentence allows the disclosure of any Confidential Information, it shall promptly

8

	submit to the Disclosing Party written documentation demonstrating the applicability of the claimed exception.
B.	Use. The Receiving Party shall not use any Confidential Information provided by the Disclosing Party for any purposes other than as permitted or required under this Agreement or the MasterCard Rules.
C.	Disclosure. Without the express written consent of the Disclosing Party, the Receiving Party shall not disclose or provide access to any Confidential Information to any Person, with the exception of disclosure to any Affiliate, agent, representative, servant, contractor and employee that has a need to know, for the purposes of complying with its obligations hereunder, the specific Confidential Information, and that has agreed to keep confidential such Confidential Information.
D.	Data Protection. The Receiving Party shall take reasonable measures, using the same care taken by such Party to safeguard its own confidential and proprietary information, to prevent disclosure by its Affiliates, agents, representatives, servants, contractors and employees of any Confidential Information.
E.	Post-Termination Obligations. Upon the conclusion of the Term, the Receiving Party shall, upon reasonable request from the Disclosing Party, return or destroy all Confidential Information provided by the Disclosing Party, including any summaries thereof, and all copies and duplicates thereof (in whatever form maintained), except as may be otherwise required by Applicable Law.
F.	Remedies. The Parties acknowledge that the Confidential Information provided by the Disclosing Party constitutes confidential and proprietary information of the Disclosing Party and that use or disclosure thereof by the Receiving Party or any Affiliates, agents, representatives, servants, contractors or employees of such Receiving Party, other than in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or as otherwise authorized in writing by a senior officer of the Disclosing Party, constitutes a material breach of the Agreement or, after the Term, of such Disclosing Party’s continuing rights. In such event, the Parties acknowledge that such Disclosing Party may be immediately and irreparably harmed, that money damages may not provide full and appropriate relief, and that, notwithstanding any other provision hereof, such Disclosing Party may therefore immediately seek to terminate this Agreement and obtain an order for appropriate injunctive relief.
G.	Notice. Each Party shall notify the other immediately of any loss or unauthorized disclosure or use of Confidential Information that comes to such Party’s attention.
H.	Subpoenas, Etc. In the event that either Party receives a subpoena, court order or other similar process purporting to require it to disclose Confidential Information, it shall provide the other Party with written notice and documentation thereof as soon as practicable, and shall cooperate with the other Party in the event that such other Party determines to seek a protective order or other remedy with regard to such disclosure.
I.	No Public Announcement. Neither Party shall issue any public announcements or make any published statements regarding this Agreement or the subject matter hereof, without the prior written consent of the other Party; provided however that the Parties shall work together in good faith to develop mutually-agreed upon responses to media inquiries concerning this Agreement.
J.	Confidential Treatment. If MasterCard or Citibank is required to file this Agreement as an exhibit to any report or other filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), such Party shall file with the Secretary of the SEC an application requesting confidential treatment of the Agreement pursuant to Rule 24b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, at or about the time of such filing, provided that no such filing shall be deemed to violate this Section IV.

Within fifteen (15) days following the close of each calendar quarter during a Measurement Period and within fifteen (15) days following the close of each Measurement Period, Citibank will report information in accordance with the MasterCard Rules in the Quarterly Member Report or such other reports as are required by the MasterCard Rules. Citibank shall provide information to MasterCard concerning Citibank Active Accounts on an as-needed basis as required to effectuate this Agreement or under the MasterCard Rules.
B.	MasterCard Audit Rights. MasterCard and its designated auditors shall have the right to audit Citibank’s books and records to verify all information supplied by Citibank pursuant to Section V.A. MasterCard shall give Citibank not less than thirty (30) days prior notice of the scope and nature of any such audit. Each audit shall be conducted at MasterCard’s expense and shall be conducted at all times so as to not unreasonably interfere with the normal business and operations of Citibank. Subject to the foregoing, Citibank shall cooperate, and cause the cooperation of its independent auditors and other necessary personnel, in the conduct of each audit. If an audit reveals that a Party has overpaid or underpaid any sum owing hereunder, the Parties shall promptly arrange for such payments as are necessary to correct the overpayment or underpayment (exclusive of the time value of money).
C.	MasterCard Reporting. Each payment by MasterCard hereunder shall be accompanied by adequate supporting documentation. If Citibank reasonably requests additional supporting documentation, MasterCard shall promptly fulfill such request.

D.	Entire Agreement. This Agreement evidences the entire agreement and understanding between the Parties with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby in the Area of Use and supersedes the following agreements as to the subject matter hereof: (i) the agreement entered into among Citibank (South Dakota), N.A., MasterCard and certain other parties as of March 1, 1999 (the “Prior Agreement”), (ii) the incentive agreement relating to Puerto Rico entered into by Citibank International, MasterCard and certain other parties as of December 18, 2003 and (iii) the incentive agreement relating to Canada entered into by Citibank Canada and MasterCard as of January 1, 2001. In addition, the Parties do not intend for this Agreement, in any way, to supersede the agreement entered into by MasterCard and Citibank USA, N.A. as of November 3, 2003 (the “Acquired Card Inclusion Agreement”). The Parties intend for such Acquired Card Inclusion Agreement to remain effective in accordance with its terms for the stated duration therein. However, upon the conclusion of the term thereof, any cards subject to such Acquired Card Inclusion Agreement will be included in this Agreement for the duration of the Term, subject to all the terms and conditions contained herein.
E.	Release. The Parties acknowledge that as of the Effective Date the Prior Agreement is terminated in its entirety and is of no further force or effect whatsoever. Each Party hereby agrees and acknowledges that as of the date of execution of this Agreement it has received all payments and services due to it from the other Party under the Prior Agreement pursuant to the terms thereof up to the date of execution of this Agreement and that such payments and services represent the full and complete satisfaction of any liabilities that such Party may have with respect to such Prior Agreement. In consideration of the execution of this Agreement and the full and timely performance of each Party’s obligations hereunder, MasterCard, Citibank and each of their respective Affiliates, jointly and severally, release and forever discharge each other and each other’s Affiliates from and against any and all manner of actions, causes, causes of actions, claims, suits, debts, controversies, damages, judgments, liabilities, executions and demands whatsoever, whether asserted or unasserted, suspected or unsuspected, known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, actual or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, in law or in equity, which either Citibank, MasterCard or any of their respective Affiliates may have against the other Party or any of the other Party’s Affiliates, that arise out of, or are related in any way to, the Prior Agreement (including under the MasterCard Rules with respect to the Prior Agreement).
F.	Express Waiver. Neither MasterCard nor Citibank believe that the relief provided in the decision and final judgment in United States v. VISA U.S.A., et al., 98 Civ. 7076 (BSJ) would permit Citibank to terminate its obligations under this Agreement. However, in the event that a court of competent jurisdiction determines otherwise, Citibank hereby explicitly waives any such right. In the event that such waiver is not recognized by a court of competent jurisdiction and Citibank rescinds its obligations under this Agreement pursuant to such relief, Citibank hereby agrees to repay to MasterCard all amounts received by it from MasterCard under this Agreement prior to such rescission.
G.	Survival. Except as otherwise provided herein, the obligations in Sections II and V shall survive for forty-five (45) days after the conclusion of the Term; the obligations in Section VII.A shall survive for the applicable statute of limitations period, plus thirty (30) days; the rights and obligations in Section VII.B shall survive through the payment of any Rebates or True-Up Amounts required

12

	thereby; and the obligations in Section IV and Sections VII.C through VII.M shall survive any termination of this Agreement for a period of five (5) years.
H.	Assignment. No Party may assign or otherwise convey this Agreement, or any of its rights and obligations hereunder, to any third party without the prior written consent of MasterCard and Citibank, which may be withheld in such Party’s sole discretion, and any such attempted assignment without consent shall be void; provided, however, that, upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to the other Party, any Party may assign or transfer this Agreement in whole or in part to an Affiliate with reasonably sufficient or comparable resources to perform the assigned provisions hereof. If any Person acquires any interest in this Agreement or the subject matter hereof in any manner, whether by voluntary or involuntary transfer, operation of Applicable Law or otherwise, such interest shall be held subject to all of the terms of the Agreement and by taking or holding such interest, such Person shall be conclusively deemed to have agreed to be bound by, and to comply with, all of the terms and obligations of the Agreement, and the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Person to execute any applicable documents to reflect the rights and obligations obtained by such Person. All rights, remedies and obligations of the Parties shall accrue or apply solely thereto or to their permitted successors or assigns, and there is no intent to benefit or obligate any other Person hereby.
I.	No Violation. Notwithstanding anything else contained in this Agreement, neither MasterCard nor Citibank (nor any of their respective Affiliates) shall, and none of them shall be obligated to, take any action that such entity believes in good faith would violate, or would cause any of them to violate, Applicable Law.
J.	Representations, Warranties and Covenants.

1.	Each Party covenants, represents and warrants to the other that on a continuing basis during the Term, and for such additional period after the Term during which such Party has not completed full performance of its obligations hereunder, that: (i) it is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under Applicable Law and (ii) it has full corporate power and authority to execute, deliver, and perform this Agreement according to its terms, it possesses all licenses, consents, and approvals required to do so, and the execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement have been duly authorized by it.
2.	Each Party represents and warrants to the other that as of the Effective Date there are no actions, suits, or proceedings existing or pending against or affecting it before any Governmental Authority which would have a material adverse effect on its ability to perform its obligations hereunder except for proceedings which it is contesting and challenging in good faith and which it does not reasonably believe will result in a final order or decree materially affecting its ability to perform this Agreement.
3.	Citibank covenants, represents and warrants to MasterCard on a continuing basis during the Term, and for such additional period after the Term during which Citibank has not completed full performance of its obligations hereunder, that Citibank shall cause all Affiliates of Citibank that issue Cards in the Area of Use to become Parties hereto.
4.	MasterCard covenants, represents and warrants to Citibank on a continuing basis during the Term, and for such additional period after the Term during which MasterCard has not completed full performance of its obligations hereunder, that in the event that Citibank causes an Affiliate of Citibank to become a Party hereto pursuant to Section VII.J.3, then MasterCard, subject to all the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement, shall make available to such Affiliate the enumerated benefits hereunder.

13

K.	Indemnification. Each Party (the “Indemnifying Party”) agrees, at its own expense, to defend, protect, indemnify, and hold the other Party and its Affiliates, and any of their directors, officers, employees and agents (the “Indemnified Parties”) harmless from and against any action or threatened action, suit, claim or proceeding (including regulatory actions), whether or not well grounded, arising out of any alleged act or omission of the Indemnifying Party, its employees, agents, and subcontractors relating to the subject matter of this Agreement and against any and all expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees), judgments, fines, costs, amounts paid in settlement or any loss or damage incurred by any of the Indemnified Parties relating thereto. Each Party shall give prompt notice to the other Party of any event or circumstances that it believes gives rise to an obligation of indemnity, and the Parties shall cooperate with each other in the defense and resolution thereof.
L.	Dispute Resolution. The Parties will endeavor in good faith to promptly settle any disputes relating to this Agreement (each a “Dispute”). If the appropriate members of each Party’s management team cannot promptly settle a Dispute, senior executives from each Party will try to resolve the dispute. If no resolution is reached then either Party may submit the Dispute to the American Arbitration Association for binding arbitration. The Party prevailing in such arbitration shall be entitled to a recovery of its costs and attorneys fees from the non-prevailing Party. Subject to Section IV.F, the procedures included in this Section VII.L will be the exclusive procedures for resolution of any and all Disputes.
M.	Miscellaneous. A failure or delay of either Party to enforce any provision of or exercise any right under this Agreement shall not be construed to be a waiver. No waiver by a Party shall be effective unless expressly made in writing. If any provision of this Agreement is held by a court (pursuant to Section IV.F) or an arbitrator to be unenforceable or invalid in any respect, such unenforceability or invalidity shall not affect any other provision of this Agreement, and this Agreement shall then be construed as if such unenforceable or invalid provisions had never been a part of this Agreement and the Parties shall immediately commence negotiations in good faith to reform this Agreement to make alternative provisions herein that reflect the intentions and purposes of the severed provisions in a manner that does not run afoul of the basis for such unenforceability or invalidity. The captions in this Agreement are included for convenience only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. This Agreement may be amended or modified only in a written agreement signed by all Parties. This Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, each Party’s respective successors and assigns. This Agreement and the respective rights and obligations of the Parties shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York without reference to its conflict-of-laws or similar provisions that would mandate or permit application of the substantive Applicable Law of any other jurisdiction. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which, taken together, shall constitute but one original document. Citibank’s obligations under this Agreement supplement (and do not replace) Citibank’s obligations under the MasterCard Rules.
