~~Except as set forth above, the Amendment does not materially alter the Credit Agreement. Proceeds from borrowings under the Credit Agreement may be used for general corporate purposes.~~SIGNATURE

The Credit Agreement provides for the extension of credit to the Borrowers by the lenders thereunder in a total aggregate amount of $200 million in the form of revolving loans up to the full $200 million amount of the facility. In addition, as part of the total $200 million extension of credit, the Credit Agreement provides for swingline loans (in an amount not to exceed an aggregate of $20 million) and letters of credit (in an amount not to exceed an aggregate of $50 million), each at the applicable interest rates specified in the Credit Agreement. Subject to certain conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement, the Borrowers may increase the revolving credit facility up to a maximum aggregate amount of $50 million (for a total facility of up to $250 million), although no lender is obligated to increase its commitment.

At the election of the applicable Borrower, loans under the Credit Agreement bear interest at a variable base rate or a variable London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”). Interest on base rate loans will be equal to the highest of: (a) the Federal Funds Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement) plus 0.5%; (b) the Administrative Agent’s daily “prime rate”; and (c) the one-month LIBOR rate plus 1%; plus in each case, an applicable margin that may range from zero to 0.275%, depending on the applicable Borrower’s Debt Rating (as defined in the Credit Agreement). Interest on LIBOR loans will be determined by reference to LIBOR plus an applicable margin that may range from 0.8% to 1.275%, depending on the applicable Borrower’s Debt Rating.

The Credit Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants, including a financial covenant limiting the ratio of Indebtedness of each Borrower and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis to Consolidated Total Capitalization of not more than 0.70 to 1.0 (as such terms are defined in the Credit Agreement). The Credit Agreement also contains customary events of default.

Many of the lenders under the Credit Agreement have in the past performed, and may in the future from time to time perform, investment banking, financial advisory, lending and/or commercial banking services or other services for the Company or its affiliates, and affiliates of certain of these lenders have served in the past as underwriters in public offerings of securities by the Company or its affiliates, for which they have received, and may in the future receive, customary compensation and expense reimbursement.

The foregoing summaries of the Amendment and the Credit Agreement are qualified in their entirety by reference to the text of the Amendment and the Credit Agreement filed herewith.
