This Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13D (this "Amendment") relating to the common stock, $.001 par value per share, of Swift Transportation Co., Inc. (the "Issuer"), amends and supplements the Schedule 13D jointly filed on December 7, 2005, and as subsequently amended on October 11, 2006 (the "Schedule 13D"), by Jerry Moyes, Vickie Moyes and the Jerry and Vickie Moyes Family Trust dated 12/11/87 (together, the "Reporting Persons"). Except as provided herein, this Amendment does not modify any of the information previously reported on Schedule 13D. As described in the Proposal Letter discussed in Item 4 below, the Reporting Persons are participants in the Proposal (as defined in Item 4).

Item 3.
Source and Amount of Funds and Other Consideration.
 
Item 3 is amended and supplemented as follows:

With respect to the proposed transaction described in Item 4 of this Amendment (which Item 4 is incorporated herein by reference), the Reporting Persons estimate that the amount of funds necessary to consummate the transaction would consist of the following: (i) an equity contribution in an amount at least equal to 25% of the total cost of the transaction (which may be in the form of the Issuer's common stock) , (ii) approximately $2.285 billion of debt that would be incurred in connection with the transaction, including (without limitation) for purposes of paying the Offer Price (as defined in Item 4), refinancing certain indebtedness of the Issuer and its affiliates, refinancing certain stockholder loans as described in the Debt Financing Letter (as defined in Item 4) and paying related costs and expenses, all as further described in Item 4, the Proposal Letter (as defined in Item 4) and the Debt Financing Letter and (iii) the contribution of 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Interstate Equipment Leasing, Inc.
 
The information set forth in response to this Item 3 is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Proposal Letter and the Debt Financing Letter, which are incorporated herein by reference.

Item 4.
Purpose of Transaction.
 
Item 4 is amended and replaced in its entirety as follows:
 
As set forth in a letter dated November 3, 2006 (the "Proposal Letter"), Mr. Moyes has submitted to the Issuer's Board of Directors (the "Board of Directors") a proposal (the "Proposal") to acquire all of the outstanding common stock of the Issuer ("Swift Common Stock"), except for substantially all of the shares of Swift Common Stock held by the Reporting Persons. Each of the Reporting Persons intends to participate in the Proposal. A copy of the Proposal Letter is being filed herewith as Exhibit 2.
 
The Proposal contemplates that the transaction would be effected through a merger of a new acquisition corporation formed by the Reporting Persons (the "Acquisition Co.") with and into the Issuer. The Reporting Persons intend to roll-over substantially all of their Swift Common Stock in the acquisition. The Swift Common Stock of the Reporting Persons that would be rolled-over in the acquisition would be contributed to a parent entity of Acquisition Co. immediately prior to the merger in exchange for equity interests in such parent entity. Additionally, in connection with the Proposal, and subject to the Issuer rendering the recently adopted "poison pill" rights plan inapplicable to the Proposal, Mr. Moyes intends to approach the general partner of the Moyes Children's Limited Partnership and potentially other stockholders to ascertain their interest in rolling-over a portion or all of the shares beneficially owned by the Moyes Children's Limited Partnership in the proposed transaction. All of the other Swift Common Stock would be converted into the right to receive a cash payment equal to $29.00 per share (the "Offer Price"). If such merger is consummated, the Swift Common Stock would no longer be traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market and the registration of the Swift Common Stock under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, would be terminated.
 
To finance the Proposal, the Reporting Persons have received a commitment letter from Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc., to provide up to $2.735 billion in debt financing consisting of (1) a senior secured first lien loan facility in an aggregate amount of $2.25 billion (of which only $1.8 billion will be available for purposes of financing the transaction, with the balance only being available following the consummation of the transaction for the Issuer's general corporate and working capital needs) and (2) a senior secured second lien loan facility in an aggregate amount of $485 million (the "Debt Financing Letter"). A copy of the Debt Financing Letter is being filed herewith as Exhibit 3.

5


Other than as set forth herein or in the Proposal Letter and the Debt Financing Letter, the Reporting Persons have no plans or proposals that relate to or would result in any of the events set forth in the below items (a) through (j) of the Schedule 13D. However, if the Proposal is not consummated for any reason, the Reporting Persons intend to continue to participate in and influence the affairs of the Issuer through the exercise of their voting rights with respect to their shares of Swift Common Stock. Mr. Moyes will continue to influence the affairs of the Issuer in his capacity as a member of the  Board of Directors, and the Reporting Persons will continue to review the performance of their investments and consider or explore a variety of alternatives, including, without limitation: (a) the acquisition of additional securities of the Issuer or the disposition of securities of the Issuer; (b) an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization, or liquidation, involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries; (c) a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries; (d) a change in the present Board of Directors or management of the Issuer, including a change in the number or term of directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the Board of Directors; (e) a material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the Issuer; (f) any other material change in the Issuer's business or corporate structure; (g) changes in the Issuer's charter, bylaws, or instruments corresponding thereto, or other actions that may impede the acquisition of control of the Issuer by any person; (h) causing a class of securities of the Issuer to be delisted from a national securities exchange or to cease to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association; (i) causing a class of equity securities of the Issuer to become eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended; or (j) any action similar to any of those enumerated above. Any alternatives that the Reporting Persons may pursue will depend upon a variety of factors, including, without limitation, current and anticipated future trading prices for the Swift Common Stock, the financial condition, results of operations, and prospects of the Issuer, and general economic, financial market, and industry conditions.
 
The information set forth in response to this Item 4 is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Proposal Letter and the Debt Financing Letter, which are incorporated herein by reference.

Item 6.
Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

Items 3 and 4 of this Amendment are incorporated herein by reference.

Board of Directors
Swift Transportation Co., Inc.
2200 South 75th Avenue
Phoenix, AZ 80202

Attention: Jock Patton, Chairman of the Board

Dear Jock:

I am pleased to submit this proposal to acquire Swift Transportation Co., Inc. (“Swift”) at a substantial premium to the market value of Swift's shares.

I propose to acquire Swift through a corporation to be formed by me in an all-cash transaction at a price of $29.00 per Swift common stock share. To finance the transaction, I will roll over substantially all of my current investment in Swift and have received a written commitment from Morgan Stanley for the entire amount of the debt financing necessary to consummate the transaction.

Given Swift's recent performance, $29.00 per share is a full and fair price for Swift’s common stock, providing an attractive opportunity for its stockholders to maximize the value of their investment in Swift. The $29.00 offer price represents a significant, more than 21%, premium over yesterday's closing price for Swift's shares. I believe such a transaction would be in the best interests of Swift and its stockholders, and that Swift’s stockholders will find such a transaction compelling.

My proposal is conditioned upon completion of confirmatory due diligence, negotiation and execution of a definitive agreement, and receipt of necessary board, stockholder and regulatory approvals. Given my history with Swift and my familiarity with its operations, employees and customers, I am confident that when my legal and financial advisors are given access to Swift’s books and records, they will be able to expeditiously complete their due diligence. As part of the due diligence, I am prepared to consider any factors that you believe justify a higher purchase price, and, upon the completion of due diligence, I may be willing to increase my proposed price.




Board of Directors
November 3, 2006

In view of my disclosure obligations under the securities laws, I will be filing an amendment to my Schedule 13D on Monday disclosing this proposal. In spite of the required disclosure of this proposal, I would very much like to move forward on a cooperative and amicable basis. If desired, my advisors and I are prepared to work with you and your advisors over the week-end to formulate a joint press release. I hope you share my enthusiasm for the proposed acquisition and my confidence that it serves the best interests of Swift's stockholders. Please contact me as promptly as possible to discuss how we may best proceed, and, in any event, consider this proposal effective through November 20, 2006.

 
Sincerely,
   
 
/s/ Jerry Moyes

Mr. Jerry Moyes
c/o Swift Aviation

Phoenix, Arizona 85034

Attention: Jerry Moyes


Project Bluetooth
First Lien and Second Lien Facilities Commitment Letter


Dear Mr. Moyes:

You have advised Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc. (“Morgan Stanley”) that you intend to acquire (the “Acquisition”) all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Swift Transportation Co., Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), not owned by you, and that you would expect to consummate the Acquisition through a to-be-formed corporation that will be controlled by you and named Saint Corporation (together with one or more wholly-owned subsidiaries as may reasonably be acceptable to Morgan Stanley, “Holdings”). You have further advised us that the Acquisition will be accomplished in a manner (and on a basis) consistent with the terms of your letter, dated the date hereof, addressed to the Company, which sets forth your proposal to acquire the Company. We also understand that the Acquisition will be structured as either (i) a one-step merger transaction (a “One-Step Transaction”) between Saint Corporation and the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company being the surviving corporation of the Merger or (ii) a two-step transaction (a “Two-Step Transaction”) pursuant to which Saint Corporation will commence a tender offer (the “Tender Offer”) for all issued and outstanding common stock of the Company not owned by Holdings or the Rollover Purchasers (defined below) at the time of the Tender Offer, followed as promptly as practicable after consummation of the Tender Offer (but no later than five business days following such consummation) by the Merger, with all shares not tendered in the Tender Offer being cashed out in the Merger.

The Acquisition, the Merger, the Tender Offer (if necessary) and all related transactions, including, without limitation, the credit extensions to be made under the Facilities (as defined below), the equity contributions pursuant to the Equity Contribution (as defined below), the Shareholder Loan (as defined below), the refinancing of certain indebtedness of the Company and its subsidiaries and the payment of related fees, costs and expenses are herein collectively referred to as , the “Transaction”.

In connection with the Transaction, you have requested that Morgan Stanley (i) provide you with its financing commitment for the full amount of the Facilities described in this Commitment Letter (as



defined below) and (ii) use commercially reasonable efforts to arrange a syndicate of Lenders (as defined below) for the Facilities.

For purposes of consummating the Transaction, and also for purposes of providing post-Acquisition financing for the ongoing working capital and general corporate needs of the Borrower (defined below) and its subsidiaries, you have informed us that the following financing will be required:

(a)     A senior secured first lien loan facility in an aggregate amount of $2,250,000,000 to be provided by Morgan Stanley and certain other financial institutions reasonably acceptable to you (the “First Lien Lenders”), which facility shall consist of (i) a $1,800,000,000 term b loan facility (the “Term Loan Facility”) and (ii) a $450,000,000 revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”, together with the Term Loan Facility, the “First Lien Facilities”) having substantially the terms set forth on Exhibit A hereto (such Exhibit, together with Exhibits B, C and D referred to below, being the “Term Sheets” and, together with this letter, this “Commitment Letter”).

(b)     A senior secured second lien loan facility in an aggregate amount of $485,000,000 (the “Second Lien Facility”, together with the First Lien Facilities, the “Facilities”) to be provided by Morgan Stanley and certain other financial institutions reasonably acceptable to you (the “Second Lien Lenders, together with the First Lien Lenders, the “Lenders”), having substantially the terms set forth on Exhibit B hereto.

(c)     An equity contribution in an aggregate amount at least equal to 25% of the total cost of the Transaction (including, without limitation, the purchase price for the Acquisition, the Shareholder Loan (defined below) and related costs and expenses) (the “Equity Contribution”) to be provided by you and certain other investors previously identified or otherwise reasonably acceptable to you and the Lead Arranger (as defined below) (the “Purchasers”), which contribution will be in the form of (i) a “rollover” contribution of common stock of the Company held directly or beneficially by the Purchasers (the “Rollover Equity Investment”, with those Purchasers participating in the Rollover Equity Investment being herein referred to as the “Rollover Purchasers”), and (ii) a contribution (the “IEL Equity Contribution”) of 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Interstate Equipment Leasing, Inc. (“IEL”); provided that the value of the Rollover Equity Contribution shall not be less than 20% of the total cost of the Transaction (including, without limitation, the purchase price of the Acquisition, the Shareholder Loan and related costs and expenses).

(d)     Any term or provision hereof to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) in the event the Borrower elects to pursue a One-Step Transaction, the terms and conditions set forth in Exhibit C shall not apply (in any respect) to the Transaction or any financing contemplated by this Commitment Letter, and (ii) in the event the Borrower elects to pursue a Two-Step Transaction, the terms and conditions set forth in Exhibit C shall apply to the Transaction and the financing contemplated hereby, and the terms and conditions of Exhibits A and B shall be modified as set forth (and as provided) in such Exhibit C.

All Facilities will be made available to the Borrower. At all times at and prior to the Merger, the “Borrower” will be Holdings and, at all times from and after giving effect to the Merger (pursuant to a mutually satisfactory assignment and assumption agreement in respect of the Facilities (including in respect of the Shareholder Loan) and the Loan Documentation (defined below)), the “Borrower” will be Swift Transportation Co., Inc., an Arizona corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (also sometimes referred to herein as “Swift Arizona”) and at the reasonable discretion of the Lead Arranger, one or more Opco Subs (as defined in the Term Sheets).

- 2 -


In the event of a One-Step Transaction, loans under the Term Loan Facility and the Second Lien Facility will be made available to the Borrower in a single borrowing (under each such facility) on the date the Merger is effected. In the case of a Two-Step Transaction, loans under the Term Facility and the Second Lien Facility will be made available (x) on the date of the consummation of the Tender Offer (the “Share Tender Date”) in a single borrowing (under each such facility) (pursuant to which 100% of amounts available under the Second Lien Facility will be borrowed, together with such additional amounts as may be required to be borrowed under the Term Loan Facility), and (y) on the date the Merger is effected (such date, whether pursuant to a One-Step Transaction or a Two-Step Transaction, being the “Merger Date”), in a single drawing under the Term Loan Facility, all as further described in Exhibit C.

Borrowings under the Term Loan Facility and the Second Lien Facility, together with cash proceeds, if any, received pursuant to the Equity Contribution, must be sufficient to consummate the Transaction, and such proceeds shall be used for that purpose; provided, that up to an aggregate amount of $410,000,000 of the proceeds borrowed under the Term Loan Facility and/or the Second Lien Facility may be used by the Borrower for purposes of making a loan (the “Shareholder Loan”) to the Rollover Purchasers, the proceeds of which will be used by the Rollover Purchasers to refinance certain debt of the Rollover Purchasers secured by the common stock that will be contributed pursuant to the Rollover Equity Investment. The Shareholder Loan will be secured by all capital stock of Holdings held by the Rollover Purchasers and will be recourse to such capital stock and Jerry Moyes, but otherwise shall not be recourse to the other Rollover Purchasers. Credit extensions under the Revolving Credit Facility shall not be available to finance the Transaction except, (i) letters of credit may be issued to backstop or replace outstanding letters of credit as may be required on the Share Tender Date or the Merger Date, as the case may be, as a result of the Acquisition and other transactions contemplated hereby and (ii) loans may be available to the extent agreed by the Lead Arranger to fund fees and expenses on the Merger Date.

Morgan Stanley hereby commits to make, or to cause one or more of its affiliates to make, available to the Borrower 100% of the Facilities, subject only to the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the Term Sheets. You agree that Morgan Stanley shall act as (i) the exclusive lead arranger, syndication agent, documentation agent and sole book-runner in respect of each Facility (in such capacity, the Lead Arranger”) and (ii) the administrative agent for each Facility. It is understood that Morgan Stanley shall be permitted, in consultation with you, to designate one or more Lenders as agents or co-agents, as the case may be, with respect to any Facility in its sole discretion after consultation with you, but no other agents, co-agents or arrangers will be appointed, no other titles may be given, and no other compensation (other than as expressly set forth in the Term Sheets or as otherwise separately and expressly agreed between the parties hereto) will be paid without Morgan Stanley’s prior written consent. Fees payable to any Lenders participating in any of the Facilities through any syndication by Morgan Stanley (as provided herein) shall be payable solely from amounts to be separately negotiated between the parties hereto.

Morgan Stanley reserves the right, prior to or after execution of the definitive Loan Documentation (defined below) for the Facilities, to syndicate all or part of its commitment for the Facilities to one or more lending institutions, each consented to by you (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), that will become parties to such Loan Documentation. All aspects of any such syndication shall be managed by Morgan Stanley in consultation with you, and the commitments of Morgan Stanley hereunder shall be reduced if and only to the extent that (i) commitments are received from other lending institutions consented to by you (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), and (ii) such commitments are in fact funded by such other lending institutions on the Share Tender Date or the Merger Date, as the case may be. In the event Morgan Stanley decides to syndicate all or part of the Facilities, Morgan Stanley will use commercially reasonable efforts to arrange a syndicate of other financial institutions identified by Morgan Stanley and consented to by you (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) that will

- 3 -


participate in the Facilities, and you agree actively to assist Morgan Stanley in achieving a syndication that is satisfactory to Morgan Stanley; provided, however, that achieving such syndication shall not be (in and of itself) a condition to the funding of any of the Facilities or to Morgan Stanley's obligations or commitments hereunder; provided further, however, that your active assistance of Morgan Stanley in its syndication efforts as provided in this letter shall be a condition to the funding of the Facilities and to Morgan Stanley's obligations and commitments hereunder. Such syndication may be accomplished by a variety of means, including direct contact during the syndication process among (i) you, (ii) representatives, senior management and advisors of Holdings, Swift Arizona, IEL and the Company and (iii) the proposed syndicate members, it being understood that in the event of a Two-Step Transaction such contact with representatives, senior management and advisors to the Company and Swift Arizona may not be possible until after the Share Tender Date and, prior to such time, you will only be obligated to use commercially reasonable best efforts to obtain access for us and the Lenders to such persons. To assist Morgan Stanley in its syndication efforts, you hereby agree (x) to provide and cause your advisors and Holdings’ advisors to provide Morgan Stanley and the other syndicate members upon request with all information reasonably deemed necessary by Morgan Stanley to complete the syndication of the Facilities, including but not limited to information and evaluations prepared by you and your advisors or on your behalf relating to the Transactions and the business of Holdings, the Company, Swift Arizona, IEL and their respective subsidiaries, (y) to assist Morgan Stanley upon request in the preparation of an Information Memorandum to be used in connection with the syndication of the Facilities, and (z) at reasonable times and with reasonable notice, to make yourself available, as well as senior officers and representatives of Holdings, IEL, Swift Arizona and the Company, in each case from time to time, and to attend and make presentations regarding the business and prospects of Holdings, the Company, Swift Arizona and IEL at a meeting or meetings of prospective lenders; provided that, in the event of a Two-Step Transaction, access to senior officers and representatives of the Company and Swift Arizona shall be subject to compliance with any existing or subsequently adopted or amended shareholder rights plan or “poison pill” of the Company (the “Bluetooth Pill”), and you will only be required to use commercially reasonable best efforts to make such senior officers and representatives of the Company and Swift Arizona available. Morgan Stanley acknowledges that in the event of a Two-Step Transaction, (1) the Company and Swift Arizona may not provide access to their representatives, senior management and advisors until after the Share Tender Date, (2) you have no obligation under this letter to take any action which could result in a violation of or triggering event under the Bluetooth Pill, and (3) any failure to obtain access and cooperation from the representatives, senior management and advisors of the Company and Swift Arizona prior to the Share Tender Date shall not be deemed a failure or breach of your obligation to provide active assistance to Morgan Stanley in its syndication efforts, so long as you used commercially reasonable best efforts to obtain such access and cooperation.

You also agree to use your commercially reasonable best efforts to ensure that our syndication efforts benefit materially from the lending relationships of the Company and its subsidiaries. Subject to the condition that any institutions participating in the syndication will be subject to your consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), Morgan Stanley will manage all aspects of the syndication, including decisions as to the selection of institutions to be approached and when they will be approached, when their commitments will be accepted, which institutions will participate, the allocation of the commitments among the Lenders and the amount and distribution of fees among the Lenders. At least 35 days prior to the earlier of the Merger Date and the Share Tender Date, as the case may be, and at least five business days prior to our commencement of the syndication of the Facilities, you will meet with us, Standard & Poor’s Rating Services (“S&P) and Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”) and make prepared presentations to S&P and Moody’s for the purpose of obtaining ratings on the Facilities, which ratings will give pro forma effect to the Acquisition and the financing contemplated hereby, and you will obtain such ratings at least 20 days prior to the earlier of the Merger Date or the Share Tender Date, as the case may be. You will also afford Morgan Stanley a period of at least 30 consecutive days following the launch of the general syndication of the Facilities to

- 4 -


syndicate the Facilities. In addition, you agree that no financing for the Borrower, the Company, Swift Arizona, IEL or any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates (other than the Facilities) shall be syndicated, privately placed or publicly offered to the extent that we reasonably determine that such financing is reasonably likely to have an adverse effect on the syndication of the Facilities.

All commitments, undertakings and agreements hereunder are subject to (i) except as set forth in the forms, reports and other documents, including financial statements contained therein and any exhibits thereto, filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission since January 1, 2006 but prior to the date hereof (collectively, the “Reports”), the absence of a material adverse change in the business, financial condition, operations, performance or properties of each of the Company and IEL and their respective subsidiaries, in each case taken as a whole, since December 31, 2005 (a “Material Adverse Change”)1, (ii) no additional facts or information (including the occurrence of any events or circumstances) coming to the attention of Morgan Stanley that are inconsistent with the information disclosed to Morgan Stanley by or on behalf of the Purchasers, Holdings, IEL or the Company (or any of IEL’s or the Company’s subsidiaries) prior to the date of this Commitment Letter and that, either individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected, in the reasonable judgment of Morgan Stanley, to result in (x) a Material Adverse Change, (y) a material adverse effect on any aspect of the Transaction or (z) a material adverse effect on the rights or remedies of the Lenders or the legal ability of the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates (as applicable) to perform their respective obligations under the Loan Documentation for the Facilities (collectively, a “Material Adverse Effect) and (iii) the accuracy and completeness in all material respects of all representations that you and Holdings make to us and all information that you and Holdings furnish to us in connection with this commitment, taken as a whole, and your compliance with the terms of this Commitment Letter and the payment of all fees and expenses required to be paid by you in connection herewith and the transactions contemplated hereby.

You agree that you will promptly notify Morgan Stanley of any changes in circumstances of which you become aware that could reasonably be expected to call into question the Information or the continued reasonableness of any assumption underlying the Projections, and that you will supplement the

In issuing this commitment, Morgan Stanley is relying on the accuracy of the Information and Projections without independent verification thereof. The representations and covenants contained in this paragraph shall remain effective until definitive documentation with respect to (A) the First Lien Facilities (the “First Lien Loan Documentation”) and (B) the Second Lien Facility (the “Second Lien Loan Documentation” and, together with the First Lien Loan Documentation, the “Loan Documentation”) are executed and delivered and, thereafter, the disclosure representations contained herein shall be terminated and of no further force and effect. You agree to continue to provide, make available or cause to be provided or made available to the Lenders all of the information received by you or on your behalf or of which you become aware that is related to or that affects in any material respect the Borrower, the Company, IEL or any of their respective subsidiaries or any aspect of the Transaction.

To induce Morgan Stanley to issue this Commitment Letter, you hereby agree that all out-of-pocket fees, costs and expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses of one counsel (in addition to one local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction) and those consultants which have been retained in consultation with you) of Morgan Stanley and its affiliates arising in connection with this Commitment Letter (and its due diligence and syndication efforts in connection herewith) and in connection with the Facilities and the other transactions described herein shall be for your account, whether or not the Acquisition is consummated, the Facilities are made available or definitive documents are executed.

You further agree to indemnify and hold harmless each of the Lenders (including, in any event, Morgan Stanley) and each director, officer, employee, agent and affiliate thereof, and each other person controlling any of the foregoing within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or Section 20 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (each an “Indemnified Person”) from and against any and all actions, suits, proceedings (including any investigations or inquiries), claims, losses, damages, liabilities or expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be incurred by or asserted against or involve any such Indemnified Person as a result of or arising out of or in any way related to or resulting from this Commitment Letter or any other agreement related to the Transaction between the parties hereto, the Transaction or the extension or syndication of the Facilities contemplated by this Commitment Letter, or in any way arising from any use or intended use of this Commitment Letter or any other agreement related to the Transaction between the parties hereto, or the proceeds of the Facilities contemplated by this Commitment Letter, and you agree to reimburse each Indemnified Person upon demand for any reasonable legal or other out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with investigating, defending or preparing to defend any such action, suit, proceeding (including any inquiry or investigation) or claim (whether or not Morgan Stanley or any such other Indemnified Person is a party to any action or proceeding out of which any such expenses arise) (collectively, an “Action”); provided, however, that you shall not have any obligation to indemnify any Indemnified Person against any loss, claim, damage, expense or liability to the extent arising solely out of the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person.

You further acknowledge and agree that (i) no fiduciary, advisory or agency relationship between you and Morgan Stanley has been created solely as a result of this Commitment Letter or any other agreement relating to the Transaction between the parties hereto in respect of any of the transactions contemplated herein, irrespective of whether we and/or any of our respective affiliates have advised or are advising you on other matters, (ii) Morgan Stanley, on the one hand, and you, on the other hand, have an arms-length business relationship that does not directly or indirectly give rise to, nor do you rely on, any fiduciary duty on the part of Morgan Stanley, (iii) you are capable of evaluating and understanding, and you understand and accept, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated by this Commitment Letter, (iv) you have been advised that Morgan Stanley and its respective affiliates are engaged in a broad range of transactions that may involve interests that differ from your interests and that Morgan Stanley has no obligation to disclose such interests and transactions to you by virtue of any fiduciary, advisory or agency relationship, and (v) you waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims you may have against Morgan Stanley for breach of fiduciary duty or alleged breach of fiduciary duty and agree that Morgan Stanley shall have no liability (whether direct or indirect) to you in respect of such a fiduciary duty claim or to any person asserting a fiduciary duty claim on behalf of or in right of you, including your stockholders, employees or creditors. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no provision set forth in this Commitment Letter or the other Commitment Documents (as defined below) shall in any way limit or modify the respective rights and obligations of you and Morgan Stanley Co. Incorporated arising under that certain engagement letter concerning Project Bluetooth dated June 8, 2006 (the “Investment Banking Letter”).

Base Rate” shall mean, as of any time, the higher of (i) 1/2 of 1% in excess of the federal funds rate and (ii) the rate published in the Wall Street Journal as the “prime rate” (or equivalent), in each case as in effect from time to time.
   
 
The “Applicable Margin” means at any time for Loans outstanding under the First Lien Facilities (x) for the first two full fiscal quarters after the Closing Date, 2.75% in the case of Loans maintained as Eurodollar Loans and 1.75% in the case of Loans maintained as Base Rate Loans, and (y) thereafter, the applicable percentage determined in accordance with step-ups and step-downs based on the ratio of total debt to EBITDA of the Borrower in amounts and levels to be mutually agreed upon.
   
 
In addition to customary fronting and issuing fees to be mutually agreed upon, a fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) equal to 2.25% will accrue on the stated amount of each Letter of Credit.

In each case above, such amounts shall be applied first to the next eight installments or amortization payments due under the First Lien Facilities, and thereafter in inverse order of the remaining amortization payments of the Term Loans, then to the Second Lien Facility and then to the repayment of outstanding principal amounts under the Revolving Facility (but without a reduction in the Revolving Facility Commitment Amount). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of (i) above and with respect to Eurodollar Loans, unless a mandatory prepayment date in respect of excess cash flow occurs on an interest payment date for
