WHEREAS, Company desires to amend the Credit Agreement on, and subject to, the terms, conditions and agreements set forth herein, to create a new class of Tranche B2 Term Loans (the “Tranche B2 Term Loans”) having identical terms with, having the same rights and obligations under the Loan Documents as, and in the same aggregate principal amount as, the outstanding Tranche B1 Term Loans, as set forth in the Loan Documents, except as such terms are amended hereby;

WHEREAS, on the Second Amendment Effective Date (as hereinafter defined), the outstanding Tranche B1 Term Loans will be converted into, or repaid in full with the proceeds of, the Tranche B2 Term Loans;

WHEREAS, (a) each Lender having a Tranche B2 Term Loan Commitment (as hereinafter defined) in excess of its outstanding Tranche B1 Term Loans on the Second Amendment Effective Date (each such Lender an “Increasing Lender”) shall make Tranche B2 Term Loans to Company on the Second Amendment Effective Date in the amount of the excess of such Tranche B2 Term Loan Commitment over such Increasing Lender’s Tranche B1 Term Loans, and (b) each new Lender having a Tranche B2 Term Loan Commitment (each a “New Tranche B2 Term Loan Lender”) shall make Tranche B2 Term Loans to Company on the Second Amendment Effective Date in an amount equal to such New Tranche B2 Term Loan Lender’s Tranche B2 Term Loan Commitment, the proceeds of which shall be used by Company to repay the outstanding principal amount of Tranche B1 Term Loans of existing Lenders that do not execute and deliver this Amendment (the “Exiting Lenders”);

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the agreements, provisions and covenants herein contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:

Section 1. AMENDMENTS TO THE CREDIT AGREEMENT

1.1 Amendments to Subsection 1.1: Certain Defined Terms.

Subsection 1.1 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by adding to such subsection the following definitions which shall be inserted in proper alphabetical order:

“Applicable Tranche B2 Base Rate Margin” means with respect to any date of determination, a rate per annum equal to 0.50%.

“Applicable Tranche B2 LIBOR Margin” means with respect to any date of determination, a rate per annum equal to 1.50%.

“Tranche B2 Term Loan Commitment” means the commitment of a Lender to make (and/or convert from Tranche B1 Term Loans) on the Second Amendment Effective Date Tranche B2 Term Loans pursuant to subsection 2.1A(ii) and “Tranche B2 Term Loan Commitments” means such commitments of all Lenders in the aggregate.

“Tranche B2 Term Loan Exposure” means, with respect to any Lender as of any date of determination, the outstanding principal amount of the Tranche B2 Term Loan of that Lender.

“Tranche B2 Term Loans” means the Loans made as Tranche B2 Term Loans (and/or converted into Tranche B2 Term Loans from Tranche B1 Term Loans) on the Second Amendment Effective Date by Lenders to Company pursuant to subsection 2.1A(ii).

“Tranche B2 Term Notes” means any promissory notes of Company issued pursuant to subsection 2.1E to evidence the Tranche B2 Term Loans of any Lenders, substantially in the form of Exhibit V annexed hereto, as they may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time.

1.2 Amendments to Subsection 2.1: Commitments; Making of Loans; the Register; Notes.

A. Subsection 2.1A of the Credit Agreement is hereby further amended by deleting clause (ii) thereof in its entirety and substituting the following therefor:

“(ii) Tranche B2 Term Loans. Each Lender that has a Tranche B2 Term Loan Commitment severally agrees (a) to convert on the Second Amendment Effective Date each “Tranche B1 Term Loan” made by such Lender under (and as defined in) this Agreement and outstanding immediately prior to giving effect to the Second Amendment to a Tranche B2 Term Loan hereunder (and Company hereby agrees to such conversion) and (b) to make to Company on the Second Amendment Effective Date Tranche B2 Term Loans hereunder in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of such Lender’s Tranche B2 Term Loan Commitment over such Lender’s Tranche B1 Term Loans (if any) being converted on the Second Amendment Effective Date to Tranche B2 Term Loans, so that, after giving effect to the conversion of such Tranche B1 Term Loans into Tranche B2 Term Loans pursuant to clause (a) above and the making of all such Tranche B2 Term Loans pursuant to clause (b) above, each Lender that has a Tranche B2 Term Loan Commitment will have made or deemed made, as the case may be, a Tranche B2 Term Loan to Company in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the aggregate amount of the Tranche B2 Term Loan Commitments, to be used for the purposes identified in subsection 2.5A. The aggregate amount of the Tranche B2 Term Loan Commitments is $400,000,000. Each Tranche B2 Term Loan shall be deemed to have the same Interest Period as the Tranche B1 Term Loan it replaces, and no making of or conversion into a Tranche B2 Term Loan hereunder shall result in the commencement of a new Interest Period. Amounts borrowed (or converted) under this subsection 2.1A(ii) and subsequently repaid and prepaid may not be reborrowed.”

B. Subsection 2.1A of the Credit Agreement is hereby further amended by adding the following clause (v) at the end thereof:

“(v) Additional Commitments. Company may from time to time, by notice to Administrative Agent, request that, on the terms and subject to the conditions contained in this Agreement, Lenders and/or other financial institutions not then a party to this Agreement, that are approved by Administrative Agent

(such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), provide up to an aggregate amount of $250,000,000 in additional Term Loans, which Term Loans may be provided as an additional tranche of Term Loans; provided that (i) no Event of Default or Potential Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or result from the issuance of such additional Term Loans, (ii) after giving effect to such additional Term Loans, Company is in pro forma compliance with the maximum Consolidated Senior Leverage Ratio and maximum Consolidated Leverage Ratio set forth in subsections 7.6B and 7.6C, respectively, and (iii) Company shall have given the PBGC at least 30 days prior written notice of the incurrence of such additional Term Loans. Upon receipt of such notice to Administrative Agent and an Officer’s Certificate as to the satisfaction of the foregoing conditions, Administrative Agent shall use all reasonable efforts to arrange for Lenders or other financial institutions approved of by Administrative Agent and Company (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to provide such additional Term Loans. Alternatively, any Lender may commit to provide the full amount of the requested additional Term Loans and then offer portions of such additional Term Loans to the other Lenders or other financial institutions, subject to the approval of Administrative Agent and Company (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Nothing contained in this paragraph or otherwise in this Agreement is intended to commit any Lender or any Agent to provide any portion of any such additional Term Loans. If and to the extent that any Lenders and/or other financial institutions agree, in their sole discretion to provide any such additional Term Loans on the terms and conditions set forth herein, (i) the aggregate amount of additional Term Loans shall be increased by the amount of the additional Term Loans agreed to be so provided, (ii) the Pro Rata Shares of the respective Lenders in respect of the additional Term Loans shall be proportionally adjusted, (iii) if necessary, in respect of an increase in Term Loans, at such time and in such manner as Company and Administrative Agent shall agree, the Lenders who have in their sole discretion agreed to provide such additional Term Loans shall purchase and assume outstanding Term Loans so as to cause the amount of such Term Loans held by each Lender to conform to the respective percentages of the applicable Term Loans of the Lenders as so adjusted and (iv) Company shall execute and deliver any additional Notes as any Lender may reasonably request or to the extent necessary to effect the foregoing changes in accordance with the next succeeding sentence, other amendments or modifications to this Agreement or any other Loan Document. In connection with the additional Term Loans provided for in this subsection 2.1A(v), conforming amendments shall be made to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to reflect such additional Term Loans without the consent of any Lender not a lender of such additional Term Loans, including, without limitation, if applicable, conforming amendments: (i) to provide for the additional Term Loans to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the other Term Loans made under this Agreement, (ii) to Sections 1 and 2 to provide, among other things, for the additional Term Loans to share ratably with the applicable Term Loans in the application of prepayments, (iii) to provide an amortization schedule for any additional Term Loans, and (iv) to include Lenders

of the additional Term Loans in any determination of Lenders, Requisite Lenders, Requisite Class Lenders and Pro Rata Share. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement expressed or implied to the contrary (including, without limitation in subsection 10.6), nothing herein shall be construed to require consent from Lenders that are not lenders of such additional Term Loans to the incurrence of the additional Term Loans in compliance with this subsection 2.1A(v), and shall supersede any provisions in subsection 10.6 to the contrary.”
