2. Section 4(c) of the Lease is hereby amended by inserting "in a manner that would have an adverse
affect on the value of the Equipment" at the end thereof.
3. Section 9 of the Lease is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
"9. END OF LEASE OPTIONS:
(a) Renewal. So long as Lessee shall not have exercised its option to return the
Equipment or its purchase option pursuant to this Section 9, Lessee shall have the option, upon the
expiration of the Basic Term and/or the first Renewal Term (or the second Renewal Term with respect
to any Schedule that has three (3) Renewal Terms) of each Schedule to be executed under this
Agreement, to renew the Agreement with respect to all, but not less than all, of the Equipment
leased under such Schedule for an additional term of twelve (12) months (each, a "Renewal Term") at
the Renewal Term Rent. Including all Renewal Terms, the maximum term of each Schedule to be
executed under this Agreement shall be as specified in the applicable Schedule (the Basic Term plus
the number of Renewal Terms specified in the applicable Schedule) (the "Maximum Lease Term").
(b) Purchase. So long as Lessee shall not have exercised its extension option or its
option to renew this Agreement or its option to return the Equipment pursuant to this Section 9,
Lessee shall have the option, upon the expiration of the Term of each Schedule, and subject to
Paragraph (e) below, to purchase all (but not less than all) of the Equipment described on such
Schedule upon the following terms and conditions. If Lessee desires to exercise this option with
respect to the Equipment, Lessee shall pay to Lessor on the last day of the Term with respect to
each individual Schedule (a "Section 9 Termination Date"), in addition to the scheduled Rent (if
any) then due on such date and all other sums then due hereunder, in cash the purchase price for
the Equipment so purchased, determined as hereinafter provided. The purchase price of the
Equipment shall be an amount equal to the Fixed Purchase Price of such Equipment (as specified on
the Schedule), plus the Make Whole Amount or the Break Amount, whichever is applicable, if any,
plus all taxes and charges upon sale and all other reasonable and documented expenses incurred by
Lessor in connection with such sale, including, without limitation, any such expenses incurred
based on a notice from Lessee to Lessor that Lessee intended to return and not purchase any such
items of Equipment. Upon satisfaction of the conditions specified in this Paragraph, Lessor will
transfer, on an AS IS, WHERE IS BASIS, without recourse or warranty, express or implied, of any
1
kind whatsoever ("AS IS BASIS"), all of Lessor's interest in and to the Equipment. Lessor shall not
be required to make and may specifically disclaim any representation or warranty as to the
condition of such Equipment and other matters (except that Lessor shall warrant that it has
conveyed whatever interest it received in the Equipment free and clear of any lien or encumbrance
created by Lessor). Lessor shall execute and deliver to Lessee such Uniform Commercial Code
Statements of Termination as reasonably may be required in order to terminate any interest of
Lessor in and to the Equipment.
(c) Return. Unless Lessee shall have exercised its extension option or its purchase
option pursuant to this Section 9, upon the expiration of the Term of each Schedule, Lessee shall
return all (but not less than all) of the Equipment described on such Schedule, to Lessor upon the
following terms and conditions: Lessee shall (i) pay to Lessor on the last day of the Term with
respect to each individual Schedule, in addition to the scheduled Rent then due on such date and
all other sums then due hereunder, a terminal rental adjustment amount equal to the Fixed Purchase
Price of such Equipment, plus the Make Whole Amount or the Break Amount, whichever is applicable,
if any, and (ii) return the Equipment to Lessor in accordance with the provisions of Annex F
attached to the applicable Schedule. Thereafter, upon return of all of the Equipment described on
such Schedule, Lessor and Lessee shall arrange for the commercially reasonable sale, scrap or other
disposition of the Equipment. Upon satisfaction of the conditions specified in this Paragraph,
Lessor will transfer, on an AS IS BASIS, all of Lessor's interest in and to the Equipment. Lessor
shall not be required to make and may specifically disclaim any representation or warranty as the
condition of such Equipment and other matters (except that Lessor shall warrant that it has
conveyed whatever interest it received in the Equipment free and clear of any liens or encumbrances
created by Lessor). Lessor shall execute and deliver to Lessee such Uniform Commercial Code
Statements of Termination as reasonably may be required in order to terminate any interest of
Lessor in and to the Equipment. Upon the sale, scrap or other disposition of the Equipment the net
sales proceeds with respect to the Equipment sold will be paid to, and held and applied by, Lessor
as follows: Lessor shall promptly thereafter pay to Lessee an amount equal to the Residual Risk
Amount (as specified in the Schedule) of the Equipment (less all reasonable costs, expenses and
fees, including storage, reasonable and necessary maintenance and other remarketing fees incurred
in connection with the sale, scrap, or disposition of such Equipment) plus all net proceeds, if
any, of such sale in excess of the Residual Risk Amount of the Equipment and applicable taxes, if
any.
(d) Extension. So long as Lessee shall not have exercised its option to return the
Equipment or its purchase option pursuant to this Section 9, and provided that Lessee shall have
exercised its option to renew this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9 with respect to all
available Renewal Terms, Lessee shall have the option, upon the expiration of all available Renewal
Terms of each Schedule, and subject to Paragraph (e) below, to extend the Agreement with respect to
all, but not less than all, of the Equipment described on such Schedule for an additional term of
twelve (12) months (the "Extension Term") at a monthly rental to be paid in arrears on the same day
of each month on which the prior Renewal Term Rent installment was paid, and calculated as the
product of (i) the Capitalized Lessor's Cost, times (ii) a lease rate factor calculated by Lessor,
which when so multiplied times the Capitalized Lessor's Cost, will result in a product that is
equal to the amount necessary to fully repay to Lessor any unpaid balance of the Capitalized
Lessor's Cost (determined as of the date on which the last available Renewal Term expired) in
twelve (12) equal monthly installments, together with interest thereon at the Extension Term
Interest Rate specified in the Schedule. At the end of the Extension Term, provided that Lessee is
not then in Default under this Agreement, Lessee shall purchase all, and not less than all, of such
Equipment described on such Schedule for $1.00 cash, together with all Rent and other sums then due
on such date, plus all taxes and charges upon transfer and all other reasonable and documented
expenses incurred by Lessor in connection with such transfer. Upon satisfaction of the conditions
specified in this Paragraph, Lessor will transfer, on an AS IS BASIS, all of Lessor's interest in
and to the Equipment. Lessor shall not be required to make and may specifically disclaim any
2
representation or warranty as to the condition of the Equipment and any other matters (except that
Lessor shall warrant that it has conveyed whatever interest it received in the Equipment free and
clear of any lien or encumbrance created by Lessor).
(e) Notice of Election. Lessee shall give Lessor written notice of its election of the
options specified in this Section 9 not less than one hundred eighty (180) days nor more than three
hundred sixty-five (365) days before the expiration of the Basic Term or any Renewal Term of the
applicable Schedule. Such election shall be effective with respect to all Equipment described on
such Schedule; provided, however, Lessee may, at the end of all available Renewal Terms, elect to
purchase less than all of the Equipment specified on a Schedule as long as (i) Lessee extends such
Schedule pursuant to Section 9(d) with respect to the rest of the Equipment specified in such
Schedule at such time and (ii) Lessee lists which items of Equipment it shall purchase and which
items it shall extend the Term of in the written notice given pursuant to this Paragraph (e).
Lessee shall not have the right to return any of the Equipment described on a Schedule at the end
of any Term or Renewal Term unless Lessee returns all (but not less than all) of the Equipment
described in such Schedule pursuant to Section 9(c) and 9(e) hereof. If Lessee fails timely to
provide such notice, without further action Lessee automatically shall be deemed to have elected
(1) to renew the Term of this Agreement pursuant to Paragraph (a) of this Section 9 if a Renewal
Term is then available hereunder, or (2) to purchase the Equipment pursuant to Paragraph (b) of
this Section 9 if a Renewal Term is not then available hereunder."
4. Section 10(b) of the Lease is hereby amended by inserting the words "to the applicable Schedule" after
the words "Annex D" in the first sentence thereof and after the words "Annex F" in the second
sentence thereof.
5. Section 11(c) of the Lease is hereby amended by deleting the words "is acting" from the first sentence
thereof and inserting "may act" in lieu thereof.

second sentence thereof and inserting "any such assignee or Participant" in lieu thereof.
8. Section 14(a) of the Lease is hereby amended by inserting ", the applicable Schedule" after the word
"Agreement".
9. Section 14(h) of the Lease is hereby amended by inserting "Lessee's exact legal name is set forth in the
first sentence of this Agreement and" at the beginning thereof.
10. The title of Section 18 of the Lease is hereby amended and restated as "18. Early Termination/Early
Purchase Options and Break Amount and Make-Whole Xxxxxx".
00. The first paragraph of Section 18 is hereby amended by (a) inserting "(specified in the applicable
Schedule)" after "First Termination Date" and (b) deleting the words "all Schedules executed
hereunder" and inserting "such Schedule" in lieu thereof.
12. Section 18(a) of the Lease is hereby amended by (a) inserting "and taxes upon sale" after the word
"expenses" in the third sentence thereof, (b) deleting the words "Section X" in the last sentence
thereof and inserting "Annex F to the applicable Schedule" in lieu thereof and (c) inserting the
words "below" after the reference to "Paragraph (b)" in the last sentence thereof:

13. The second paragraph of Section 18(b) of the Lease is hereby amended and restated as follows:
"For purposes of this Agreement, "Break Amount" shall mean the amount of any swap breakage loss
incurred by any assignee or Participant (the "Affected Party") as a result of or in connection with
Lessee's exercise of any of the end of term options pursuant to Section 9 or this Section. Upon
request, the Affected Party shall provide to Lessee a good faith estimate of the Break Amount
payable to it as soon as is reasonably practical in connection with any transaction or proposed
transaction that might give rise to an obligation to pay the Break Amount. Upon determination of
the Break Amount, the Affected Party will provide to Lessee a certificate, executed by an officer
of the Affected Party, containing the calculation (in reasonable detail) of the Break Amount. For
purposes of this Agreement, "Make Whole Amount" shall mean that amount equal to the excess, if any,
of (i) the aggregate present value as of the Termination Date or a Section 9 Termination Date,
whichever is applicable, of the sum of (A) the remaining scheduled Rent payments, plus (B) the full
amount of the Fixed Purchase Price that but for exercise of the option contained in this Section or
Section 9, whichever is applicable, would be payable on the last Rent Payment Date of the Maximum
Lease Term discounted to the date of payment at the Reinvestment Rate, over (ii) the aggregate
present value as of the Termination Date or a Section 9 Termination Date, whichever is applicable,
of the sum of (A) the remaining scheduled Rent payments, plus (B) the full amount of the Fixed
Purchase Price that but for exercise of the option contained in this Section or Section 9,
whichever is applicable, would be payable on the last Rent Payment Date of the Maximum Lease Term,
discounted to the date of payment at the Assumed Interest Rate (specified in the applicable
Schedule); provided, however, that if the Reinvestment Rate is equal to or higher than the Assumed
Interest Rate, the Make Whole Amount shall be zero. For purposes hereof, "Reinvestment Rate" shall
mean the sum of (i) the Applicable Treasury Yield plus (ii) fifty (50) basis points. The term
"Applicable Treasury Yield" at any time shall mean the yield to maturity of United States Treasury
Notes with a maturity equal to the remaining average life of the indebtedness evidenced by the
applicable Schedule through the Maximum Lease Term as published in The Wall Street Journal three
(3) Business Days prior to the Termination Date or a Section 9 Termination Date, whichever is
applicable. If no maturity exactly corresponds to such remaining average life, the Applicable
Treasury Yield shall be interpolated on a straight-line basis, utilizing the yields for the two
maturities which most closely correspond to the requisite maturity."
14. Section 19 of the Lease is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
"19. FINANCIAL COVENANTS:
The Lessee covenants and agrees with the Lessor that so long as any of the Lessee's obligations
hereunder shall be outstanding, the Lessee shall comply with the covenants set forth in Sections
7.01, 7.02, 7.03, and 7.04 (collectively, the "Financial Covenants") of that certain Amended and
Restated Credit Agreement dated as of January 28, 2002 currently in effect between the Lessee, XX
Xxxxxx Xxxxx Bank (as successor in interest by merger to The Chase Manhattan Bank) as the Agent and
the lenders and agents from time to time party thereto, as the same may be amended, restated,
supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time (the "Revolving Credit Agreement"). For
purposes of this Section 19, the Financial Covenants set forth in the Revolving Credit Agreement,
and the other sections thereof to which reference is made therein, together with related definitions
and ancillary provisions, are hereby incorporated herein by reference, mutatis mutandis, and will be
deemed to continue in effect for the benefit of the Lessor and its successors and assigns (as if
Lessor or any successor or assignee were the sole "Lender" thereunder) whether or not the "Loans",
the "LC Disbursements" or any other indebtedness evidenced thereby remain outstanding or the
Revolving Credit Agreement is terminated unless the Lessor expressly agrees that such termination of
the Revolving Credit Agreement shall apply to this Agreement. Accordingly, with respect to such
4
incorporation, references in the Revolving Credit Agreement to (a) the "Borrower" shall be deemed a
reference to the Lessee; and (b) "Required Lenders", "Lender", "Lenders" or "Agent" shall be deemed
a reference to the Lessor or such successor and assignee (with such corresponding definitions
equally applicable to the singular term, as appropriate)."
15. The form of Schedule attached to the Lease as Exhibit No. 1-A is replaced by the form of Schedule
attached hereto as Exhibit No. 1 and the form of Series B Schedule attached to the Lease as Exhibit No.
1-B is hereby deleted and shall not be applicable with respect to Schedules executed and delivered from
and after the date hereof.

All Rent payments shall be applied first to interest and then to the remaining unpaid principal balance. The
acceptance by Lessor of any payment which is less than payment in full of all amounts due and owing at such time
shall not constitute a waiver of Lessor's right to receive payment in full at such time or at any prior or
subsequent time.
3. If the Interim Rent Payment Date or any Rent Payment Date is not a Business Day, the Rent otherwise due
on such date shall be payable on the immediately preceding Business Day. As used herein, "Business Day" shall

determine to be necessary to compensate it for any costs which Lessor determines are attributable to its making
or maintaining its interest in the Lease and the Equipment (the "Interest") or any reduction in any amount
receivable by Lessor in respect of any such Interest (such increases in costs and reductions in amounts
receivable being herein called "Additional Costs"), resulting from any Regulatory Change (as defined below) which:
(i) changes the basis of taxation of any amounts payable to Lessor for the account of Lessor in respect of
such Interest (other than taxes imposed on or measured by the overall net income of Lessor in respect of the
Interest by the jurisdiction in which Lessor has its principal office or its lending office); or
8
(ii) imposes or modifies any reserve, special deposit or similar requirements relating to any extensions of
credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or other liabilities of, Lessor; or

Federal, state or foreign law or regulations (including, without limitation, Regulation D of the Board of

including Lessor or under any United States Federal, state or foreign law and whether or not failure to comply
therewith would be unlawful) by any court or governmental or monetary authority charged with the interpretation
or administration thereof.
Without limiting the effect of the foregoing paragraph (but without duplication), Lessee shall pay to Lessor,
from time to time on request such amounts as Lessor may determine to be necessary to compensate Lessor (or,
without duplication, the bank holding company of which Lessor is a subsidiary) for any costs which it determines
are attributable to the maintenance by Lessor (or any lending office or such bank holding company), pursuant to
any law or regulation or any interpretation, directive or request (whether or not having the force of law) of any
court or governmental or monetary authority (i) following any Regulatory Change or (ii) implementing any
risk-based capital guideline or requirement (whether or not having the force of law and whether or not the
failure to comply therewith would be unlawful) heretofore or hereafter issued by any government or governmental
or supervisory authority implementing at the national level the Basle Accord (including, without limitation, the
Final Risk-Based Capital Guidelines of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (12 C.F.R. Part 208,
Appendix A; 00 X.X.X. Xxxx 000, Xxxxxxxx X) and the Final Risk-Based Capital Guidelines of the Office of the
Comptroller of the Currency (12 C.F.R. Part 3, Appendix A)), of capital in respect of Lessor's Interest (such

directive or request). For purposes of this paragraph, "Basle Accord" shall mean the proposals for risk-based
capital framework described by the Basle Committee on Banking Regulations and Supervisory Practices in its paper
entitled "International Convergence of Capital Measurement and Capital Standards" dated July 1988, as amended,

Lessor shall notify Lessee of any event occurring after the date of this Lease that will entitle Lessor to
compensation under the preceding two paragraphs as promptly as practicable, but in any event within forty-five
(45) days, after Lessor obtains actual knowledge thereof; provided, that (i) if Lessor fails to give such notice
within forty-five (45) days after it obtains actual knowledge of such an event, Lessor shall, with respect to
compensation payable pursuant to the preceding two paragraphs in respect of any costs resulting from such event,
only be entitled to payment under the referenced paragraphs for costs incurred from and after the date forty-five
(45) days prior to the date that Lessor does give such notice, and (ii) Lessor will designate a different lending
office for the Interest if such designation will avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such compensation
and will not, in the sole opinion of Lessor, be disadvantageous to Lessor. Lessor will furnish to Lessee a
certificate setting forth the basis and amount of each request by Lessor for compensation under the preceding two
paragraphs. Determinations and allocations by Lessor for purposes of the preceding two paragraphs shall be
conclusive, absent manifest error.
D. Insurance.

17
ARTICLE II
DUTIES OF AGENT
Section 2.01 Equipment Orders.
(a) Lessee, pursuant to the agency granted to it by Lessor in Article I hereof, may receive, accept and
pay for the Equipment to be leased by Lessor to Lessee pursuant to the Lease. Upon and as of the date of
issuance hereunder by Lessee of a Purchase Order with respect to Equipment, Lessee shall be unconditionally
obligated to lease such Equipment from Lessor pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Lease and the
applicable Schedule. Upon and as of the date of acceptance of the Equipment by Lessee and satisfaction of the
conditions precedent provided for herein and in the Lease, Lessor shall be unconditionally obligated to purchase
such Equipment pursuant to the terms of the applicable Purchase Order and to lease such Equipment to Lessee
pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Lease and the applicable Schedule.
(b) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary herein, Lessee's ability to act as Lessor's
agent hereunder, and unconditionally to obligate Lessor to purchase Equipment pursuant to such agency, shall be
limited by the following: (1) Lessee must disclose in writing to all Suppliers that it is ordering the Equipment
as agent for "General Electric Capital Corporation, for itself and as agent for certain participants, or its
nominee"; (2) all of the Equipment ordered and/or accepted hereunder must meet at least one of the general
description categories, and must be within the quantity, specific description, manufacturers, hard/soft cost
allocation, and total cost parameters, contained on Schedule A attached hereto; (3) the aggregate Purchase Price
for all Equipment purchased in connection with the Lease must be less than, or equal to, the Capitalized Lessor's
Cost specified on Schedule A attached hereto; (4) the Equipment must be delivered to, and accepted by, Lessee on
or before the Last Delivery Date specified in Schedule A attached hereto; (5) the Purchase Price of each unit of
Equipment must not be more than the then current Fair Market Value of such Equipment; and (6) with respect to any
documentation, technical or confidential business information and/or software relating to the Equipment, if
applicable (collectively, "Software"), the Purchase Order will xxxxx Xxxxxx a license to use the Software and
will allow Lessor to grant a sublicense to Lessee to use such Software pursuant to the Lease and will allow
Lessor to grant a sublicense to a third party after termination or the expiration of the Lease in the event
Lessee does not elect to exercise any purchase option that may be provided for in the Lease. Lessor may refuse
to purchase Equipment pursuant to such agency if Lessor determines, in its sole discretion, that the foregoing
conditions have not been satisfied; and such refusal shall not constitute a breach by Lessor hereunder or under
the Lease.
(c) Lessee additionally agrees that all Purchase Orders executed by Lessee shall: (1) not permit
passage of title for the Equipment earlier than such acceptance by Lessee; (2) not permit the Supplier or any
other person or entity to retain any security interest in, or lien on, any of the Equipment; and (3) otherwise be
on terms and conditions acceptable to Lessor in its sole discretion. Prior to passage of risk of loss of the
Equipment under the terms of the Purchase Orders, Lessee shall insure the Equipment, and provide to Lessor
evidence of insurance, in accordance with the provisions of the Lease.
Section 2.02 Receipt of and Payment for Equipment. With respect to any purchase order issued by Lessee pursuant
hereto, Lessee agrees to pay and perform all obligations of the purchaser in the time and manner required
thereby. Without limiting the foregoing, upon receipt and acceptance by Lessee of any Equipment, Lessee shall
execute and deliver to Lessor a Schedule describing all units of Equipment so received and accepted by Lessee
(together with evidence of the insurance required by Section X of the Master Lease Agreement with respect
thereto) and, on behalf of Lessor, Lessee shall pay the Purchase Price thereof to the Supplier in the time and
manner required by the purchase order. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at the sole discretion of Lessor, Lessor
may pay the Purchase Price directly to the Supplier in the time and manner required by the purchase order for any
Equipment ordered by Lessee as Lessor's agent under this Agreement. Receipt and acceptance of any Equipment by
Lessee from the Supplier shall be deemed to be an unconditional and irrevocable acceptance of such Equipment by
Lessee for all purposes of the Lease and the applicable Schedule.
18
Section 2.03 Reimbursement of Purchase Price. Lessee shall present to Lessor documentation ("Purchase
Documentation"), in form and substance satisfactory to Lessor in its sole discretion, which includes (1) a
Schedule which describes all units of Equipment ordered, received and accepted by Lessee as agent for Lessor in
connection with such Schedule, (2) an invoice issued by the Supplier in the name of Lessor stating the Purchase
Price of such Equipment, (3) includes evidence of the payment of the Purchase Price paid to Supplier for each
such unit of Equipment and of passage of title thereto to Lessor, and (4) confirmation reasonably acceptable to
Lessor that such Equipment has then been placed in service by Lessee pursuant to the Lease. Upon Lessor's
receipt of the Purchase Documentation on or before the Base Lease Commencement Date by Lessor, if no default
pursuant to Section XII of the Master Lease Agreement or event which, with the giving of notice or the lapse of
time, or both, would constitute such a default (a "Default"), has then occurred, Lessor shall reimburse Lessee
for the aggregate Purchase Price paid by Lessee for all Equipment purchased hereunder in connection with such
Schedule.
Section 2.04 Books and Records. Lessee shall maintain full and accurate books and records of all Equipment
orders, receipts and payments. All such books and records shall be maintained in a form acceptable to Lessor in
its sole discretion. Such books and records shall be open for inspection and examination by Lessor and its
respective representatives and/or accountants during Lessee's normal business hours.
ARTICLE III
TERMINATION
Section 3.01 Termination.
(a) So long as no default exists and is continuing hereunder and no Default exists and is continuing
under the Lease, either party may terminate this Agreement at any time upon thirty (30) days' prior written
notice to the other party.
(b) In the event Lessee is in default hereunder or a Default has then occurred under the Lease, Lessor
may elect to terminate this Agreement immediately, which shall be effective upon the receipt of written notice
thereof by Lessee. If Lessee invokes the protection of any bankruptcy or insolvency law, or any such law is
invoked against or with respect to Lessee or its property, without further action this Agreement automatically
shall terminate. Upon any such termination Lessor shall have no continuing obligation under Section 2.03 hereof.
(c) Any termination under this Section 3.01 automatically shall result in the immediate revocation of
all authority vested in Lessee under this Agreement to order, accept or pay for any Equipment on behalf of Lessor.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have caused their duly authorized representatives to execute and deliver
this Agency Agreement as of the date first above written.
