_________________

        This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is for the three months ended March 31, 2004. This Quarterly Report modifies and supersedes documents filed prior to this Quarterly Report. Information that we file with the SEC in the future will automatically update and supersede information contained in this Quarterly Report. In this Quarterly Report, we refer to Comcast Corporation as “Comcast”; Comcast and its consolidated subsidiaries as “we,” “us” and “our”; and Comcast Holdings Corporation as “Comcast Holdings.”

        You should carefully review the information contained in this Quarterly Report, and should particularly consider any risk factors that we set forth in this Quarterly Report and in other reports or documents that we file from time to time with the SEC. In this Quarterly Report, we state our beliefs of future events and of our future financial performance. In some cases, you can identify those so-called “forward-looking statements” by words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential,” or “continue” or the negative of those words and other comparable words. You should be aware that those statements are only our predictions. In evaluating those statements, you should specifically consider various factors, including the risks outlined below. Actual events or our actual results may differ materially from any of our forward-looking statements.

        Our businesses may be affected by, among other things:

 

changes in laws and regulations,

 

changes in the competitive environment,

 

changes in technology,

 

industry consolidation and mergers,

 

franchise related matters,

 

market conditions that may adversely affect the availability of debt and equity financing for working capital, capital expenditures or other purposes,

 

the demand for the programming content we distribute or the willingness of other video program distributors to carry our content, and

 

general economic conditions.

As more fully described elsewhere in this Quarterly Report and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003, on September 17, 2003, we sold to Liberty Media Corporation our approximate 57% interest in QVC, Inc., which markets a wide variety of products directly to consumers primarily on merchandise-focused television programs. Accordingly, financial information related to QVC is presented as a discontinued operation in our financial statements.

QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 2004
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

1. CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Basis of Presentation
We have prepared these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements based upon Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules that permit reduced disclosure for interim periods.

These financial statements include all adjustments that are necessary for a fair presentation of our results of operations and financial condition for the interim periods shown, including normal recurring accruals and other items. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year.

Effective in the first quarter of 2004, we changed the unit of accounting used for testing impairment of our indefinite-lived franchise rights to geographic regions and performed impairment testing of our cable franchise rights. We did not record any impairment charges in connection with this impairment testing.

For a more complete discussion of our accounting policies and certain other information, refer to the financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003.

On September 17, 2003, we completed the sale of our approximate 57% interest in QVC, Inc. Accordingly, QVC has been presented as a discontinued operation pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.”

The results of operations of QVC included within income from discontinued operations, net of tax for the three months ended March 31, 2003 are as follows (in millions):

Revenues $1,062  
  Income before income taxes and minority interest $172  
  Income tax expense $73  

Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year financial statements to conform to those classifications used in 2004.

2. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

FIN 46/FIN 46R
In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Interpretation No. 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” (“FIN 46”). We adopted the provisions of FIN 46 effective January 1, 2002. Since our initial application of FIN 46, the FASB addressed various implementation issues regarding the application of FIN 46 to entities outside its originally interpreted scope, focusing on Special Purpose Entities, or SPEs. In December 2003, the FASB revised FIN 46 (“FIN 46R”), which delayed the required implementation date until March 31, 2004 for entities that are not SPEs. The adoption of FIN 46R did not have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.

EITF 03-16
In March 2004, the EITF reached a consensus regarding Issue No. 03-16, “Accounting for Investments in Limited Liability Companies” (“EITF 03-16”).  EITF 03-16 requires investments in limited liability companies (“LLCs”) that have separate ownership accounts for each investor to be accounted for similar to a limited partnership investment under Statement of Position No. 78-9, “Accounting for Investments in Real Estate Ventures.”  Investors would be required to apply the equity method of accounting to their investments at a much lower ownership threshold than the 20% threshold applied under Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) No. 18, “The Equity Method of Accounting for Investments in Common Stock.”  EITF 03-16 is effective for the first period beginning after June 15, 2004, and will

5


COMCAST CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
FORM 10-Q
QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 2004
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED
(Unaudited)

be applied as a change in accounting principle with a cumulative effect reflected in the income statement. We are currently assessing the impact that the adoption of EITF 03-16 will have on our financial condition and results of operations.

3. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Earnings (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) from continuing operations for common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period on a basic and diluted basis.

Our potentially dilutive securities include potential common shares related to our stock options, restricted stock and Comcast exchangeable notes (see Note 6). Diluted earnings for common stockholders per common share (“Diluted EPS”) considers the impact of potentially dilutive securities except in periods in which there is a loss because the inclusion of the potential common shares would have an antidilutive effect. Diluted EPS excludes the impact of potential common shares related to our stock options in periods in which the option exercise price is greater than the average market price of our common stock for the period. Diluted EPS for the interim period in 2004 excludes the impact of potential common shares related to our Class A Special common stock held in treasury because it is our intent to settle the related Comcast exchangeable notes using cash.

Diluted EPS for the interim period in 2004 excludes approximately 89.3 million potential common shares related to our stock option plans because the option exercise price was greater than the average market price of our Class A common stock and our Class A Special common stock for the period. Diluted EPS for the interim period in 2003 excludes approximately 179.0 million potential common shares primarily related to our stock option and restricted stock plans and our common stock held in treasury because the assumed issuance of such potential common shares is antidilutive in periods in which there is a loss.

The following table reconciles the numerator and denominator of the computations of Diluted EPS for common stockholders from continuing operations for the interim periods presented:

4. ACQUISITIONS AND OTHER SIGNIFICANT EVENTS

Acquisition of Broadband
On November 18, 2002, we completed the acquisition of AT&T Corp.'s (“AT&T”) broadband business, which we refer to as "Broadband." The acquisition created the largest cable operator in the United States by combining Broadband's and our cable networks.

The application of purchase accounting under SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations," requires that the total purchase price of an acquisition be allocated to the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values at the acquisition date. During 2003, we finalized the Broadband purchase price allocation, except for certain litigation contingencies relating to our share of AT&T's potential liability associated with the At Home Corporation litigation (see Note 9). We are waiting for additional information to complete the Broadband purchase price allocation, which we have arranged with AT&T to obtain and expect to receive during 2004.

Liabilities associated with exit activities recorded in the purchase price allocation consist of $602 million associated with accrued employee termination and related costs and $929 million associated with either the cost of terminating contracts or the present value of remaining amounts payable under non-cancelable contracts. Amounts paid, adjustments made against these accruals and interest accretion during the 2004 interim period were as follows (in millions):

Employee
Termination and
Related Costs
Contract
Exit
Costs


  Balance, December 31, 2003   $135   $461  
  Payments  (21 ) (6 )
  Interest accretion      1  


  Balance, March 31, 2004  $114   $456  



Gemstar
On March 31, 2004, we entered into a long-term, non-exclusive patent license and distribution agreement with Gemstar-TV Guide International (“Gemstar”) in exchange for a one-time payment of $250 million to Gemstar. This amount is included in other intangible assets in our condensed consolidated balance sheet based on a preliminary allocation of value. This agreement allows us to utilize Gemstar’s intellectual property and technology and the TV Guide brand and content on our interactive program guides. In addition, we formed an entity along with Gemstar to develop and enhance interactive programming guides.

     Total debt  $26,626   $26,996  



The Cross-Guarantee Structure
To simplify our capital structure, we and a number of our wholly-owned subsidiaries that hold substantially all of our cable communications assets have unconditionally guaranteed each other’s debt securities and indebtedness for borrowed money, including amounts outstanding under the new credit facility (see below). As of March 31, 2004, $20.642 billion of our debt was included in the cross-guarantee structure.

Comcast Holdings is not a guarantor and none of its debt is guaranteed under the cross-guarantee structure. As of March 31, 2004, $1.199 billion of our debt was outstanding at Comcast Holdings.

New Credit Facility
In January 2004, we entered into a new $4.5 billion, five-year revolving bank credit facility. Interest rates on this facility vary based on an underlying base rate (“Base Rate”), chosen at our option, plus a borrowing margin. The Base Rate is either LIBOR or the greater of the prime rate or the Federal Funds rate plus 0.5%. The borrowing margin is based on our senior unsecured debt ratings. The interest rate for borrowings under this revolver is LIBOR plus 0.625% based on our current credit ratings.

Redemption of Debt
On March 31, 2004, we redeemed all $250 million principal amount of our 8.875% senior notes due 2007. The redemption was financed with available cash.

Notes Exchangeable into Common Stock
We hold exchangeable notes (the “Exchangeable Notes”) that are mandatorily redeemable at our option into shares of Cablevision NY Group (“Cablevision”) Class A common stock or its cash equivalent, Microsoft Corporation (“Microsoft”) common stock or its cash equivalent, (i) Vodafone ADRs, (ii) the cash equivalent, or (iii) a combination of cash and Vodafone ADRs, and Comcast Class A Special common stock or its cash equivalent. The maturity value of the Exchangeable Notes varies based upon the fair market value of the security to which it is

indexed. Our Exchangeable Notes are collateralized by our investments in Cablevision, Microsoft and Vodafone, respectively, and the Comcast Class A Special common stock held in treasury.

During the 2004 interim period, we settled an aggregate of $176 million of our obligations relating to our Vodafone exchangeable notes by delivering the underlying shares of common stock to the counterparty upon maturity of the instruments, and the equity collar agreements related to the underlying shares expired. The Vodafone transactions represented non-cash investing and financing activities and had no effect on our statement of cash flows due to their non-cash nature. 

As of March 31, 2004, the securities we hold collateralizing the Exchangeable Notes were sufficient to satisfy the debt obligations associated with the outstanding Exchangeable Notes (see Notes 5 and 8).

At maturity, holders of our 2.0% Exchangeable Subordinated Debentures due 2029 (the “ZONES”) are entitled to receive in cash an amount equal to the higher of the principal amount of the ZONES or the market value of Sprint common stock. Prior to maturity, each ZONES is exchangeable at the holders’ option for an amount of cash equal to 95% of the market value of Sprint common stock. As of March 31, 2004, the number of Sprint shares we held exceeded the number of ZONES outstanding.

We separated the accounting for the Exchangeable Notes and the ZONES into derivative and debt components. We record the change in the fair value of the derivative component of the Exchangeable Notes and the ZONES and the change in the carrying value of the debt component of the Exchangeable Notes and the ZONES as follows (in millions):

Derivatives
We use derivative financial instruments to manage our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates and securities prices. We have issued indexed debt instruments and prepaid forward sale agreements whose value, in part, is derived from the market value of certain publicly traded common stock.

Lines and Letters of Credit
As of March 31, 2004, we and certain of our subsidiaries had unused lines of credit of $4.382 billion under our respective credit facilities.

As of March 31, 2004, we and certain of our subsidiaries had unused irrevocable standby letters of credit totaling $419 million to cover potential fundings under various agreements.

7. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

Stock-Based Compensation
We account for stock-based compensation in accordance with APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and related interpretations, as permitted by SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” (“SFAS No. 123”) as amended. Compensation expense for stock options is measured as the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of our stock at the date of the grant over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. We record compensation expense for restricted stock awards based on the quoted market price of our stock at the date of the grant and the vesting period. We record compensation expense for stock appreciation rights based on the changes in quoted market prices of our stock or other determinants of fair value.

The following table illustrates the effect that applying the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123 to stock-based compensation would have had on net income (loss) and earnings (loss) per share. Upon further analysis during 2003, it was determined that the expected option lives for options granted in prior years should have been 7 years rather than the 8 years used previously. The amounts in the table reflect this revision for all periods presented. Total stock-based compensation expense was determined under the fair value method for all awards using the accelerated recognition method as permitted under SFAS No. 123 (dollars in millions, except per share data):

The pro forma effect on net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share for the interim periods by applying SFAS No. 123 may not be indicative of the effect on net income or loss in future years since SFAS No. 123 does not take into consideration pro forma compensation expense related to awards made prior to January 1, 1995 and also because additional awards in future years are anticipated.

9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Commitments
Certain of our subsidiaries support debt compliance with respect to obligations of certain cable television partnerships and investments in which we hold an ownership interest (see Note 5). The obligations expire between May 2008 and September 2010. Although there can be no assurance, we believe that we will not be required to meet our obligations under such commitments. The total notional amount of our commitments was $1.021 billion as of March 31, 2004, at which time there were no quoted market prices for similar agreements.

Contingencies

At Home
Litigation has been filed against us as a result of our alleged conduct with respect to our investment in and distribution relationship with At Home Corporation. At Home was a provider of high-speed Internet services that filed for bankruptcy protection in September 2001. Filed actions are: (i) class action lawsuits against us, Brian L. Roberts (our President and Chief Executive Officer and a director), AT&T (the former controlling shareholder of At Home and also a former distributor of the At Home service) and other corporate and individual defendants in the Superior Court of San Mateo County, California, alleging breaches of fiduciary duty in connection with transactions agreed to in March 2000 among At Home, AT&T, Cox Communications, Inc. (Cox is also an investor in At Home and a former distributor of the At Home service) and us; (ii) class action lawsuits against Comcast Cable Communications, LLC, AT&T and others in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, alleging securities law violations and common law fraud in connection with disclosures made by At Home in 2001; (iii) a lawsuit brought in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware in the name of At Home by certain At Home bondholders against us, Brian L. Roberts, Cox and others, alleging breaches of fiduciary duty relating to the March 2000 transactions and seeking recovery of alleged short-swing profits of at least $600 million pursuant to Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 purported to have arisen in connection with certain transactions relating to At Home stock effected pursuant to the March 2000 agreements; and (iv) a lawsuit brought in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of California by certain At Home bondholders against Comcast Cable Holdings, LLC and Comcast Cable Communications Holdings, Inc., as well as AT&T, AT&T Credit Holdings, Inc. and AT&T Wireless Services, Inc., seeking to avoid and recover certain alleged “preference” payments in excess of $89 million allegedly made to the defendants prior to the At Home bankruptcy filing. The actions in San Mateo County, California have been stayed by the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of California, the court in which At Home filed for bankruptcy, as violating the automatic bankruptcy stay. The preference action in U.S. Bankruptcy Court has also been stayed by agreement of the parties. In the Southern District of New York actions, the court ordered the actions consolidated into a single action. All of the defendants served motions to dismiss on February 11, 2003. The court dismissed the common law claims against us and Mr. Roberts, leaving only a claim for “control person” liability under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. In a subsequent decision, the court limited the remaining claim against us and Mr. Roberts to disclosures that are alleged to have been made by At Home prior to August 28, 2000. The Delaware case has been transferred to the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, and we have moved to dismiss the Section 16(b) claims.

Under the terms of the Broadband acquisition, we are generally contractually liable for 50% of any liabilities of AT&T relating to At Home, including most liabilities resulting from any pending or threatened litigation, with the exception, among other things, of liabilities arising out of contracts between At Home and AT&T (or its affiliates) for the benefit of the businesses retained by AT&T following its divestiture of Broadband. In those situations that we are contractually liable for 50% of any liabilities, AT&T will be liable for the other 50% of these liabilities. In addition to the actions against AT&T described above, in which we are also a defendant, there are two additional actions brought by At Home’s bondholders’ liquidating trust against AT&T not naming us: (i) a lawsuit filed against AT&T and certain of its senior officers in Santa Clara, California state court alleging various breaches of fiduciary duties, misappropriation of trade secrets and other causes of action in connection with the transactions in March 2000 described above, and prior and subsequent alleged conduct on the part of the defendants, and (ii) an action filed against AT&T in the District Court for the Northern District of California, alleging that AT&T infringes an At Home patent by using its broadband distribution and high-speed Internet backbone networks and equipment. Both of

FORM 10-Q
QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 2004

(Unaudited)

these actions are in the discovery stage.

We deny any wrongdoing in connection with the claims that have been made directly against us, our subsidiaries and Brian L. Roberts, and intend to defend all of these claims vigorously. In our opinion, the final disposition of these claims is not expected to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, but could possibly be material to our consolidated results of operations of any one period. Further, no assurance can be given that any adverse outcome would not be material to our consolidated financial position.

We are currently waiting to obtain additional information, and, therefore, are unable to determine what impact, if any, the final resolution of our share of these AT&T At Home potential liabilities would have on our consolidated financial position or results of operations. No assurance can be given that any adverse outcome would not be material.

AT&T
We, in connection with our acquisition of Broadband, are potentially responsible for a portion of the liabilities arising from two purported securities class action lawsuits brought against AT&T and others and consolidated for pre-trial purposes in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey. These lawsuits assert claims under Section 11, Section 12(a)(2) and Section 15 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 10(b) and Section 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The first lawsuit, for which our portion of the exposure is up to 15%, alleges, among other things, that AT&T made material misstatements and omissions in the Registration Statement and Prospectus for the AT&T Wireless initial public offering. The second lawsuit, for which our portion of the exposure is up to 50%, alleges, among other things, that AT&T knowingly provided false projections relating to AT&T common stock. The complaints seek damages in an unspecified amount, but, because the trading activity during the purported class periods was extensive, the amounts ultimately demanded may be significant. We and AT&T believe that AT&T has meritorious defenses and these actions are being vigorously defended. Motions for summary judgment were filed in March 2004 and are pending before the court.

On June 24, 1998, the first of a number of purported class action lawsuits was filed by then-shareholders of Tele-Communications, Inc. (“TCI”) Series A TCI Group Common Stock (“Common A”) against AT&T and the directors of TCI relating to the acquisition of TCI by AT&T. A consolidated amended complaint combining the various different actions was filed on February 10, 1999 in the Delaware Court of Chancery. The consolidated amended complaint alleges that former members of the TCI board of directors breached their fiduciary duties to Common A shareholders by agreeing to transaction terms whereby holders of the Series B TCI Group Common Stock received a 10% premium over what Common A shareholders received in connection with the transaction. The complaint further alleges that AT&T aided and abetted the TCI directors’ breach.

In connection with the TCI acquisition, which was completed in early 1999, AT&T agreed under certain circumstances to indemnify TCI’s former directors for certain losses, expenses, claims or liabilities, potentially including those incurred in connection with this action. In connection with the Broadband acquisition, Broadband agreed to indemnify AT&T for certain losses, expenses, claims or liabilities. Those losses and expenses potentially include those incurred by AT&T in connection with this action, both as a defendant and in connection with any obligation that AT&T may have to indemnify the former TCI directors for liabilities incurred as a result of the claims against them in this action.

On September 8, 1999, AT&T moved to dismiss the amended complaint for failure to state a cause of action against AT&T. On July 7, 2003, the Delaware Court of Chancery granted AT&T’s motion to dismiss on the ground that the complaint failed to adequately plead AT&T’s “knowing participation,” as required to state a claim for aiding and abetting a breach of fiduciary duty. The other claims made in the complaint remain outstanding. Discovery in this matter is now closed.

In our opinion, the final disposition of these claims is not expected to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, but could possibly be material to our consolidated results of operations of any one

period. Further, no assurance can be given that any adverse outcome would not be material to our consolidated financial position.

Liberty Digital
On January 8, 2003, Liberty Digital, Inc. filed a complaint in Colorado state court against us and Comcast Cable Holdings, LLC. The complaint alleges that Comcast Cable Holdings breached a 1997 “contribution agreement” between Liberty Digital and Comcast Cable Holdings and that we tortiously interfered with that agreement. The complaint alleges that this purported agreement obligates Comcast Cable Holdings to pay fees to Liberty Digital totaling $18 million (increasing at CPI) per year through 2017. Liberty Digital seeks, among other things, compensatory damages, specific performance of the purported agreement, a declaration that the agreement is valid and enforceable going forward, and an unspecified amount of exemplary damages from us based on the alleged intentional interference claim. We and Comcast Cable Holdings filed our answer to the complaint on March 5, 2003, in which we denied the essential allegations of the complaint and asserted various affirmative defenses.

On November 6, 2003, Liberty Digital was granted leave to file an amended complaint that contained one minor revision to the original complaint. On December 16, 2003, we and Comcast Cable Holdings filed our answer to the amended complaint, in which we again denied the essential allegations of the complaint and asserted various affirmative defenses. Discovery in this matter is currently underway and a trial is scheduled to commence on July 19, 2004.

In our opinion, the final disposition of these claims is not expected to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, but could possibly be material to our consolidated results of operations of any one period. Further, no assurance can be given that any adverse outcome would not be material to our consolidated financial position.

Other
We are subject to other legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of our business. In our opinion, the amount of ultimate liability with respect to such actions is not expected to materially affect our financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

10. FINANCIAL DATA BY BUSINESS SEGMENT

Our reportable segments consist of our Cable and Content businesses. Beginning in the first quarter of 2004, although they do not meet the quantitative disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 131, “Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information,” we have elected to separately disclose our content businesses as a reportable segment. Our content segment consists of our national networks E! Entertainment, Style Network, The Golf Channel, Outdoor Life Network and G4. As a result of this change, we have presented the comparable 2003 Content segment amounts. In evaluating our segments’ profitability, the components of net income (loss) below operating income before depreciation and amortization are not separately evaluated by our management (amounts in millions).

Non-US revenues were not significant in any period. No single customer accounted for a significant amount of our revenue in any period.

(4)  

Operating income (loss) before depreciation and amortization is defined as operating income before depreciation and amortization, impairment charges, if any, related to fixed and intangible assets and gains or losses from the sale of assets, if any. As such, it eliminates the significant level of non-cash depreciation and amortization expense that results from the capital intensive nature of our businesses and intangible assets recognized in business combinations, and is unaffected by our capital structure or investment activities. Our management and Board of Directors use this measure in evaluating our consolidated operating performance and the operating performance of all of our operating segments. This metric is used to allocate resources and capital to our operating segments and is a significant component of our annual incentive compensation programs. We believe that this measure is also useful to investors as it is one of the bases for comparing our operating performance with other companies in our industries, although our measure may not be directly comparable to similar measures used by other companies. This measure should not be considered as a substitute for operating income (loss), net income (loss), net cash

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

        We are principally involved in the management and operation of broadband communications networks (our cable segment) and in the management of programming content over cable and satellite television networks (our content segment). During the first quarter of 2004, we received over 94% of our revenue from our cable segment, primarily through monthly subscriptions to our video, high-speed Internet and phone services, as well as from advertising. Subscribers typically pay us monthly, based on rates and related charges that vary according to their chosen level of service and the type of equipment they use. Revenue from our content segment is derived from the sale of advertising time and affiliation agreements with cable and satellite television companies.

        Highlights for the first quarter of 2004 included the following:

 

Revenue growth of 9.8% in our cable segment compared to the same quarter in 2003, driven by continued growth in our new services, such as digital cable and high-speed Internet;


 

Operating income before depreciation and amortization growth of 21.0% in our cable segment compared to the same quarter in 2003, resulting from our revenue growth and efficiencies achieved through integration of the Broadband operations; and


 

Refinancing three of our previously existing revolving credit facilities with a new $4.5 billion, five-year revolving bank credit facility.


        The following provides the details of these highlights and insights into our financial statements, including discussions of our results of operations and our liquidity and capital resources.

Business Developments

        Refer to Note 4 to our financial statements included in Item 1 for a discussion of our acquisitions and other significant events.

        On April 28, 2004, we announced the withdrawal of our proposal to merge with The Walt Disney Company.

Results of Continuing Operations

        Revenues

        Consolidated revenues for the first quarter of 2004 increased $442 million from the same quarter in 2003. Of this increase, $415 million relates to our cable segment, which is discussed separately below. The remaining increase is primarily the result of our content segment, which achieved combined revenue growth of 21.7% during the first quarter of 2004 compared to the same quarter in 2003. This increase in our content segment was the result of increases in distribution revenue and advertising revenue.

        Operating, selling, general and administrative expenses

        Consolidated operating, selling, general and administrative expenses for the first quarter of 2004 increased $137 million from the same quarter in 2003. Of this increase, $117 million relates to our cable segment, which is discussed separately below. The remaining increase is primarily the result of increases in corporate expenses.

        Depreciation

        Depreciation expense increased $18 million for the first quarter of 2004 compared to the same quarter in 2003 and the increase is primarily attributable to our cable segment. This increase is principally due to our recent capital expenditures as we complete our upgrade program.

        Amortization

         Amortization expense decreased $78 million for the first quarter of 2004 compared to the same quarter in 2003 and the decrease is primarily attributable to our cable segment and is principally due to a decrease in the amortization of our franchise related customer relationship intangible assets. In the fourth quarter of 2003, we reduced the value of these intangible assets as a result of obtaining updated valuation reports, which resulted in lower amortization expense.

        The following table presents our subscriber and monthly average revenue statistics on a pro forma basis.

Monthly average revenue per phone subscriber  $47.34 $52.29 ($4.95 ) (9.5 %)

(a)

Operating income before depreciation and amortization is defined as operating income before depreciation and amortization, impairment charges, if any, related to fixed and intangible assets and gains or losses from the sale of assets, if any. As such, it eliminates the significant level of non-cash depreciation and amortization expense that results from the capital intensive nature of our businesses and intangible assets recognized in business combinations, and is unaffected by our capital structure or investment activities. Our management and Board of Directors use this measure in evaluating our consolidated operating performance and the operating performance of all of our operating segments. This metric is used to allocate resources and capital to our operating segments and is a significant component of our annual incentive compensation programs. We believe that this measure is also useful to investors as it is one of the bases for comparing our operating performance with other companies in our industries, although our measure may not be directly comparable to similar measures used by other companies. Because we use operating income before depreciation and amortization as the measure of our segment profit or loss, we reconcile it to operating income, the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), in the business segment footnote to our financial statements. This measure should not be considered as a substitute for operating income (loss), net income (loss), net cash provided by operating activities or other measures of performance or liquidity reported in accordance with GAAP.

        Revenues

        Video revenue consists of our basic, expanded basic, premium, pay-per-view, equipment and digital cable services. The increase in video revenue for the interim period from 2003 to 2004 is primarily due to increases in monthly average revenue per subscriber as a result of rate increases in our traditional video service, growth in digital subscribers, and repricing and repackaging of the digital and premium channel services in the Broadband systems. From March 31, 2003 to March 31, 2004, we added approximately 118,500 basic subscribers and 1,056,500 digital subscribers, or a 15.5% increase in digital subscribers. We expect continued growth in our video services revenue.

        The increase in high-speed Internet revenue for the interim period from 2003 to 2004 is primarily due to the addition of approximately 1,640,200 high-speed Internet subscribers from March 31, 2003 to March 31, 2004, or a 40.6% increase in high-speed Internet subscribers, offset by a slight decrease in monthly average revenue per subscriber. We expect continued high-speed Internet revenue growth as overall demand for our services continues to increase.

        The decrease in phone revenue for the interim period from 2003 to 2004 is primarily as a result of our focus on operating efficiencies to drive profitability in the phone business, rather than focusing on subscriber growth. As a result, from March 31, 2003 to March 31, 2004, our phone subscribers decreased by approximately 171,700 subscribers.

        The increase in advertising sales revenue for the interim period from 2003 to 2004 is primarily due to the effects of growth in regional/national advertising as a result of the continuing success of our regional interconnects and a stronger local advertising market.

        Other revenue includes installation revenues, guide revenues, commissions from electronic retailing, revenue from our regional programming networks, commercial data revenue and revenue from other product offerings.

        The increase in franchise fees collected from our cable subscribers for the interim period from 2003 to 2004 is primarily attributable to the increase in our revenues upon which the fees apply.

        Expenses

        Total operating, selling, general and administrative expenses increased for the interim period from 2003 to 2004 primarily as a result of increases in labor and other volume related operating expenses associated with the growth in our high-speed Internet and digital cable services. Offsetting these increases were cost efficiencies generated from the integration of Broadband. Additionally, customer service expenses slightly declined because we no longer outsource Broadband's customer service operations.

Consolidated Income (Expense) Items

        Interest Expense

        The decrease in interest expense for the interim period from 2003 to 2004 is due to our decreased amount of debt outstanding as a result of our debt reduction during 2003. The decrease was offset somewhat by the effects of the write-off of $38 million of unamortized debt issue costs to interest expense in the 2004 interim period in connection with the refinancing of our previously existing revolving credit facilities, as well as to the effects of our adoption of SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity," on July 1, 2003 on a prospective basis. As a result of the adoption of SFAS No. 150, interest expense in the 2004 interim period includes $25 million of dividends on our subsidiary's preferred stock, previously classified as minority interest.

        Investment Loss, Net
        Investment loss, net for the interim periods includes the following (in millions):

Three Months Ended March 31,
2004 2003


Interest and dividend income   $17   $34  
Gains on sales and exchanges of investments, net  2   22  
Investment impairment losses     (55 )
Mark to market adjustments on trading securities  (174 ) (15 )
Mark to market adjustments on derivatives related 
     to trading securities  55   (10 )
Mark to market adjustments on derivatives and hedged items  91   (199 )


     Investment loss, net  ($9 ) ($223 )



        We have entered into derivative financial instruments that we account for at fair value and which economically hedge the market price fluctuations in the common stock of certain of our investments accounted for as trading securities. Investment loss, net includes the fair value adjustments related to our trading securities and derivative financial instruments. The change in the fair value of our investments accounted for as trading securities, with the exception in 2004 of the mark to market adjustments on approximately 116 million shares of our Liberty common shares discussed below, was substantially offset by the changes in the fair value of the related derivatives.

        We are exposed to changes in the fair value of approximately 116 million shares of Liberty common stock we hold and account for as a trading security because we have not entered into a corresponding derivative to hedge this market exposure.

        We are also exposed to changes in the fair value of the derivative component of the Comcast exchangeable notes we have outstanding since the underlying 30.9 million shares of Comcast Class A Special common stock we hold in treasury are carried at our historical cost and are not adjusted for changes in fair value.

        Accordingly, our investment income (loss) is affected by fluctuations in the fair value of both the Liberty common stock and the derivative component of the Comcast exchangeable notes. Investment loss, net for the first quarter of 2004 includes a loss of $29 million, net related to these financial instruments compared to a loss of $197 million in the same quarter of 2003.

        Income Tax (Expense) Benefit

        The change in income tax (expense) benefit for the interim period from 2003 to 2004 is primarily the result of the effects of changes in our income (loss) before taxes and minority interest.

        Minority Interest

         The change in minority interest for the interim period from 2003 to 2004 is attributable to the effects of our adoption of SFAS No. 150, upon which we now record our subsidiary preferred dividends, previously included within minority interest expense, to interest expense.

        We believe that our operations are not materially affected by inflation.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

        We believe that we will be able to meet our current and long-term liquidity and capital requirements, including fixed charges, through our cash flows from operating activities, existing cash, cash equivalents and investments, through available borrowings under our existing credit facilities, and through our ability to obtain future external financing.

        We consider investments that we determine to be non-strategic, highly-valued, or both, to be a source of liquidity. As of March 31, 2004, we consider our investments in the following to be potential sources of liquidity:

 

$1.5 billion in Time Warner Inc. common equivalent preferred stock,

 

$1.3 billion in Liberty common stock,

 

21% interest in Time Warner Cable Inc., and

 

interests in certain cable television partnerships.


        We do not have any significant contractual funding commitments with respect to any of our investments.

        Refer to Note 5 to our financial statements included in Item 1 for a discussion of our investments.

        Available Borrowings Under Credit Facilities

        We have traditionally maintained significant availability under our lines of credit to meet our short-term liquidity requirements. On January 8, 2004, we refinanced three of our existing revolving credit facilities with a new $4.5 billion, five-year revolving bank credit facility due January 2009. As of March 31, 2004, amounts available under our lines of credit totaled $4.382 billion. Refer to Note 6 to our consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 for further discussion about our new credit facility.

        Financing

        As of March 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003, our debt, including capital lease obligations, was $26.626 billion and $26.996 billion, respectively. The $370 million decrease from December 31, 2003 to March 31, 2004 results principally from the effects of our net debt repayments during the first quarter of 2004. Included in our debt as of March 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003 was current portion of long-term debt of $3.386 billion and $3.161 billion, respectively.

        Excluding the effects of interest rate risk management instruments, 7.7% and 8.2% of our total debt as of March 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively, was at variable rates.

        We have made, and may from time to time in the future depending on certain factors such as market conditions, make optional repayments on our debt obligations, which may include open market repurchases of our outstanding public notes and debentures.

        Refer to Note 6 to our financial statements included in Item 1 for a discussion of our long-term debt.




Statement of Cash Flows

        Cash and cash equivalents decreased $675 million as of March 31, 2004 from December 31, 2003. The decrease in cash and cash equivalents resulted from cash flows from operating, financing and investing activities, as explained below.

        Net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations amounted to $774 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004, due principally to our operating income before depreciation and amortization (see “Results of Continuing Operations”), the effects of interest and income tax payments, and changes in operating assets and liabilities as a result of the timing of receipts and disbursements.

        Net cash used in financing activities from continuing operations was $251 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and consists primarily of repayments of debt.

        During the three months ended March 31, 2004, we repaid $273 million of our debt, consisting principally of:

 

$260 million of our senior and medium term notes and

 

$13 million of capital leases and other.


        Net cash used in investing activities from continuing operations was $1.198 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2004. During this period, net cash used in investing activities from continuing operations includes capital expenditures of $828 million and additions to intangible assets of $305 million.

Promptly upon Borrower and Administrative Agent reaching such agreement, Administrative Agent shall notify Lenders of such adjustments, which shall be conclusive unless Required Lenders object to such adjustments within 30 days of receipt of notice.

For the purposes of calculating Annualized EBITDA of Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, and Annualized Interest Expense of Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, for any period (a "Test Period"), (i) if at any time from the period (a "Pro Forma Period") commencing on the first day of such Test Period and ending on the date which is ten days prior to the date of delivery of the Compliance Certificate in respect of such Test Period (or, in the case of any pro forma calculation required to be made pursuant hereto in respect of the designation of a Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary that is a Material Disposition or the designation of an Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary that is a Material

18 Acquisition, ending on the date such Material Disposition or Material Acquisition is consummated after giving effect thereto), Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary shall have made any Material Disposition, the Annualized EBITDA for such Test Period shall be reduced by an amount equal to the Annualized EBITDA (if positive) for such Test Period attributable to the assets which are the subject of such Material Disposition or increased by an amount equal to the Annualized EBITDA (if negative) for such Test Period attributable to such assets, and Annualized Interest Expense for such Test Period shall be reduced by an amount equal to the Annualized Interest Expense for such Test Period attributable to any Indebtedness of Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary repaid, repurchased, defeased or otherwise discharged in connection with such Material Disposition (or, if the capital stock of any Restricted Subsidiary is sold (pursuant to a merger or otherwise), the Annualized Interest Expense for such Test Period directly attributable to the Indebtedness of such Restricted Subsidiary to the extent Borrower and its continuing Restricted Subsidiaries are no longer liable for such Indebtedness after such Material Disposition); (ii) if during such Pro Forma Period Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary shall have made a Material Acquisition, Annualized EBITDA of Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, and Annualized Interest Expense of Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, for such Test Period shall be calculated after giving pro forma effect thereto (including the incurrence or assumption of any Indebtedness in connection therewith) as if such Material Acquisition (and the incurrence or assumption of any such Indebtedness) occurred on the first day of such Test Period; and (iii) if during such Pro Forma Period any Person that subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged with or into Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary since the beginning of such Pro Forma Period shall have entered into any Material Disposition or Material Acquisition that would have required an adjustment pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above if made by Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary during such Pro Forma Period, Annualized EBITDA of Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, and Annualized Interest Expense of Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, for such Test Period shall be calculated after giving pro forma effect thereto as if such Material Disposition or Material Acquisition occurred on the first day of such Test Period. For the purposes of this section, whenever pro forma effect is to be given to a Material Disposition or Material Acquisition, the amount of income or earnings related thereto and the amount of Annualized Interest Expense associated with any Indebtedness discharged or incurred in connection therewith, the pro forma calculations shall be determined in good faith by a Responsible Officer of Borrower. If any Indebtedness bears a floating rate of interest and the incurrence or assumption thereof is being given pro forma effect, the Annualized Interest Expense on such Indebtedness shall be calculated as if the rate in effect on the last day of the relevant Pro Forma Period had been the applicable rate for the entire relevant Test Period (taking into account any interest rate protection agreement applicable to such Indebtedness if such interest rate protection agreement has a remaining term in excess of 12 months). Comparable adjustments shall be made in connection with any determination of Annualized EBITDA. SECTION 2 THE REVOLVING COMMITMENTS AND EXTENSIONS OF CREDIT 2.01 Amount and Terms of Revolving Commitments. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, during the period from and including the Effective Date to, but not including, the Revolving Termination Date, each Lender severally agrees to make, Convert and Continue revolving credit loans ("Revolving Loans") in Dollars in such amounts as a Co-Borrower may from time to time request; provided, however, that (i) the Outstanding Revolving Obligations of each Lender shall not exceed such Lender's Revolving Commitment at any time, and (ii) the Outstanding Revolving Obligations of all Lenders plus the

19 aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Competitive Loans shall not exceed the combined Revolving Commitments at any time. The Revolving Facility is a revolving credit and, subject to the foregoing and the other terms and conditions hereof, each Co-Borrower may borrow, Convert, Continue, prepay and reborrow Revolving Loans as set forth herein without premium or penalty. (b) Each Co-Borrower shall repay (i) all outstanding Revolving Loans made to it on the Revolving Termination Date and (ii) the then unpaid principal amount of each Competitive Loan made to it on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan. 2.02 Procedure for Revolving Loan Borrowings. (a) Each Co-Borrower may irrevocably request a Borrowing of Revolving Loans on any Business Day in a Minimum Amount therefor by delivering a Request for Extension of Credit therefor by Requisite Notice to Administrative Agent not later than the Requisite Time therefor. All Borrowings shall constitute Base Rate Loans unless properly and timely otherwise designated as set forth in the prior sentence. Each Competitive Loan shall be made in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.04. (b) Following receipt of a Request for Extension of Credit, Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender by Requisite Notice of its Revolving Percentage thereof. Each Lender shall make the funds for its Revolving Loan available to Administrative Agent at Administrative Agent's Office not later than the Requisite Time therefor on the Business Day specified in such Request for Extension of Credit. Upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 4.02, all funds so received shall be made available to the requesting Co-Borrower in like funds received. (c) The failure of any Lender to make any Revolving Loan on any date shall not relieve any other Lender of any obligation to make a Revolving Loan on such date, but the Revolving Commitments and Competitive Bids of the Lenders are several and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Revolving Loan. 2.03 Letters of Credit. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, during the period from and including the Effective Date to, but not including the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, each Issuing Lender shall take such Letter of Credit Actions denominated in Dollars as each Co-Borrower may from time to time request; provided, however, that (i) the Outstanding Revolving Obligations of each Lender shall not exceed such Lender's Revolving Commitment at any time, (ii) the Outstanding Revolving Obligations of all Lenders plus the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Competitive Loans shall not exceed the combined Revolving Commitments at any time and (iii) the Letter of Credit Usage shall not exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit at any time. By written notice to Administrative Agent prior to the Effective Date, Borrower may request that any Existing Letter of Credit be deemed to be a Letter of Credit issued hereunder, and all Existing Letters of Credit so identified shall be deemed to be Letters of Credit issued hereunder on the Effective Date for the account of each Co-Borrower, and each Co-Borrower hereby assumes the obligations of any other existing obligor(s) to the Issuing Lenders with respect to such Existing Letters of Credit. Subject to subsection (f) below and unless consented to by the applicable Issuing Lender and Administrative Agent, and except for any Existing Letter of Credit which expires more than 12 months after the date of its issuance or last renewal, no Letter of Credit may expire more than 12 months after the date of its issuance or last renewal; provided, however, that no Letter of Credit shall expire after the Business Day which is at least five days prior to the Revolving Termination Date. If any Letter of Credit Usage remains outstanding on the Revolving Termination Date,

20 each Co-Borrower shall, on the Revolving Termination Date, deposit cash in an amount equal to the Letter of Credit Usage applicable to it in a Letter of Credit Cash Collateral Account. (b) Each Co-Borrower may irrevocably request a Letter of Credit Action in a Minimum Amount therefor by delivering a Letter of Credit Application therefor to the applicable Issuing Lender, with a copy to Administrative Agent, not later than the Requisite Time therefor. Each Letter of Credit Action shall be in a form acceptable to the applicable Issuing Lender in its sole discretion. Each such request for a Letter of Credit Action shall, if Sections 4.02(b) and (c) are applicable to such Letter of Credit Action, constitute a representation and warranty by the requesting Co-Borrower that the conditions set forth in Sections 4.02(b) and (c) are satisfied. Unless Administrative Agent notifies the applicable Issuing Lender that such Letter of Credit Action is not permitted hereunder, or the applicable Issuing Lender notifies Administrative Agent that it has determined that such Letter of Credit Action is contrary to any Laws or policies of such Issuing Lender, the applicable Issuing Lender shall effect such Letter of Credit Action. This Agreement shall control in the event of any conflict with any Letter of Credit Application. Upon the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or, with respect to the Existing Letters of Credit, on the Effective Date), each applicable Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have sold and transferred to each Lender, and each Lender shall be deemed to have purchased from each applicable Issuing Lender, a participation therein in an amount equal to such Lender's Revolving Percentage times the amount of such Letter of Credit. Each applicable Issuing Lender represents and warrants to each Lender that it has all necessary power and authority to sell and transfer such participation to each Lender, without breach of any Contractual Obligation to any other Person, and that such participation is free and clear of any adverse claim. (c) Each Co-Borrower shall reimburse each Issuing Lender through Administrative Agent for any payment that such Issuing Lender makes under a Letter of Credit requested by such Co-Borrower immediately upon demand by Administrative Agent or such Issuing Lender in Dollars; provided, however, that if the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.02 can be satisfied, such Co-Borrower may request a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans to reimburse such Issuing Lender for such payment pursuant to Section 2.02 (without regard to the Minimum Amount requirements thereof). (d) Upon any drawing under a Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Lender shall notify Administrative Agent and the relevant Co-Borrower. If the relevant Co-Borrower fails to timely make the payment required pursuant to subsection (c) above, such Issuing Lender shall notify Administrative Agent of such fact and the amount of such unreimbursed payment. Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of its Revolving Percentage of such amount by Requisite Notice. Each Lender shall make funds in an amount equal to its Revolving Percentage of such amount available to Administrative Agent at Administrative Agent's Office not later than the Requisite Time therefor on the Business Day specified by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to such Issuing Lender. The obligation of each Lender to so reimburse such Issuing Lender shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default or any other occurrence or event; provided that such Issuing Lender shall not have a right to be so reimbursed in respect of a Letter of Credit if such Issuing Lender issued such Letter of Credit after being notified by Administrative Agent that such issuance was not permitted hereunder. Any such reimbursement shall not relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of each Co-Borrower to reimburse each Issuing Lender for the amount of any payment made by such Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit, together with interest as provided herein. (e) If the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.02 can be satisfied (except for the giving of a Request for Extension of Credit) on any date a Co-Borrower is obligated to, but fails to, reimburse an Issuing Lender for a drawing under a Letter of Credit, the funding by Lenders pursuant to subsection (d) above shall be deemed to be a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans by such Co-Borrower

21 (without regard to the Minimum Amount therefor). If the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.02 cannot be satisfied on the date a Co-Borrower is obligated to, but fails to, reimburse an Issuing Lender for a drawing under a Letter of Credit, the funding by Lenders pursuant to the previous subsection shall be deemed to be a funding by each Lender of its participation in such Letter of Credit, and each Lender making such funding shall thereupon acquire a pro rata participation, to the extent of its payment, in the claim of such Issuing Lender against the relevant Co-Borrower in respect of such payment and shall share, in accordance with that pro rata participation, in any payment made by such Co-Borrower with respect to such claim. Any amounts made available by a Lender under its participation shall be payable by the relevant Co-Borrower upon demand of Administrative Agent, and shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Default Rate. (f) Each Co-Borrower may request Letters of Credit that have automatic extension or renewal provisions ("evergreen" Letters of Credit), so long as the applicable Issuing Lender consents thereto and has the right not to permit any such extension or renewal at least annually within a notice period to be agreed upon at the time each such Letter of Credit is issued. Once an evergreen Letter of Credit (including any Existing Letter of Credit) is issued, unless Administrative Agent has notified the applicable Issuing Lender that Required Lenders have elected not to permit such extension or renewal, the requesting Co-Borrower, Administrative Agent and Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) such Issuing Lender to permit the renewal of such evergreen Letter of Credit at any time to a date not later than five Business Days prior to the Revolving Termination Date. Such Issuing Lender may elect not to permit an evergreen Letter of Credit to be extended or renewed at any time. If such Issuing Lender so elects, it will promptly give Administrative Agent notice of such election. Administrative Agent will promptly notify Lenders of the non-extension or non-renewal of any evergreen Letter of Credit. (g) The obligation of each Co-Borrower to pay to each Issuing Lender the amount of any payment made by such Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional, and irrevocable. Without limiting the foregoing, the Co-Borrowers' obligations shall not be affected by any of the following circumstances: (i) Any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit, this Agreement, or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto; (ii) Any amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from such Letter of Credit, this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument relating hereto or thereto; (iii) The existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other rights which a Co-Borrower may have at any time against such Issuing Lender, Administrative Agent or any Lender, any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit (or any persons or entities for whom any such beneficiary may be acting) or any other Person, whether in connection with such Letter of Credit, this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated transactions; (iv) Any demand, statement or any other document presented under such Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect whatsoever so long as any such document appeared to comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; (v) Any payment by such Issuing Lender in good faith under such Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or any accompanying document which does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or any payment made by such

22 Issuing Lender under such Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidation, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Laws; (vi) Any error in the transmission of any message relating to such Letter of Credit not caused by such Issuing Lender, or any delay or interruption in any such message; (vii) Any error, neglect or default of any correspondent of such Issuing Lender in connection with such Letter of Credit; (viii) Any consequence arising from acts of God, wars, insurrections, civil unrest, disturbances, labor disputes, emergency conditions or other causes beyond the control of such Issuing Lender; (ix) So long as such Issuing Lender in good faith determines that the document appears to comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, the form, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any contract or document referred to in any document submitted to such Issuing Lender in connection with such Letter of Credit; and (x) Any other circumstances whatsoever where such Issuing Lender has acted in good faith. In addition, the requesting Co-Borrower will promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and amendments thereto delivered to it and, in the event of any claim of noncompliance with such Co-Borrower's instructions or other irregularity, such Co-Borrower will immediately notify the applicable Issuing Lender in writing. Such Co-Borrower shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any such claim against such Issuing Lender and its correspondents unless such notice is given as aforesaid. (h) Each Lender and each Co-Borrower agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, no Issuing Lender shall have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by the Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document. No Issuing Lender, Administrative Agent-Related Person or any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of any Issuing Lender shall be liable to any Lender for any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of Lenders or Required Lenders, as applicable, any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct or the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Letter of Credit. Each Co-Borrower hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee relative to any Issuing Lender, any Lender or any Administrative Agent-Related Person with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude such Co-Borrower's pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement. No Issuing Lender, Administrative Agent-Related Person or any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of any Issuing Lender shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in subsection (g) above in the absence of such Person's gross negligence or willful misconduct. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, any Issuing Lender may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and such Issuing Lender shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument

23 transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason. (i) Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the applicable Issuing Lender and the requesting Co-Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued and subject to applicable Laws, performance under Letters of Credit by each Issuing Lender, its correspondents, and beneficiaries will be governed by, as applicable, the rules of the International Standby Practices 1998, or such later revision as may be published by the Institute of International Banking Law & Practice, or the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits, International Chamber of Commerce Publication No. 500, as the same may be revised from time to time. (j) Each Co-Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent on each Applicable Payment Date in arrears, for the account of each Lender in accordance with its Revolving Percentage, a Letter of Credit fee equal to the Applicable Amount times the actual daily maximum amount available to be drawn under each Letter of Credit requested by such Co-Borrower since the later of the Effective Date and the previous Applicable Payment Date. Borrower shall pay directly to each Issuing Lender of an Existing Letter of Credit any fees and expenses payable in respect of such Existing Letter of Credit for any period prior to the Effective Date. If there is any change in the Applicable Amount during any quarter, the actual daily amount shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Amount separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Amount was in effect. (k) Each Co-Borrower shall pay directly to each Issuing Lender, for its sole account, a fronting fee for each Letter of Credit requested by such Co-Borrower in such amount and at such times as may be set forth in a separate letter agreement between such Co-Borrower and such Issuing Lender. In addition, each Co-Borrower shall pay directly to each Issuing Lender, upon demand, for its sole account, its customary documentary and processing charges in accordance with its standard schedule, as from time to time in effect, for any Letter of Credit Action or other occurrence relating to a Letter of Credit requested by such Co-Borrower for which such charges are customarily made. Such fees and charges are nonrefundable. (l) Each Issuing Lender shall deliver to Administrative Agent, not later than the 20th day after each calendar quarter ending after the Effective Date, a written report, in form reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent, setting forth the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender and outstanding as of the last day of such calendar quarter, any Letter of Credit Actions effected during such calendar quarter, and any draws made under such Letters of Credit during such calendar quarter. 2.04 Competitive Bid Procedure. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, during the period from and including the Effective Date to, but not including, the Revolving Termination Date, each Co-Borrower may request Competitive Bids and may (but shall not have any obligation to) accept Competitive Bids and borrow Competitive Loans; provided that Outstanding Revolving Obligations of all Lenders plus the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Competitive Loans at any time shall not exceed the combined Revolving Commitments. To request Competitive Bids, a Co-Borrower shall notify Administrative Agent of such request by telephone not later than the Requisite Time therefor; provided that a Co-Borrower may submit up to (but not more than) two Competitive Bid Requests on the same day, but no Competitive Bid Request or Requests shall be made within five Business Days after the date of any previous Competitive Bid Request or Requests, unless any and all such previous Competitive Bid Requests shall have been withdrawn or all Competitive Bids received in response thereto rejected. Each such telephonic Competitive Bid Request shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to Administrative Agent of a written Competitive Bid Request in a form

24 approved by Administrative Agent and signed by Borrower. Each such telephonic and written Competitive Bid Request shall specify the following information: (i) the aggregate amount of the requested Borrowing (which shall be at least the Minimum Amount therefor); (ii) the date of such Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day; (iii) whether such Borrowing is to be a Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans or of Fixed Rate Loans (it being understood and agreed that each Borrowing of Competitive Loans shall be comprised entirely of Eurodollar Rate Loans or Fixed Rate Loans); and (iv) the Interest Period to be applicable to such Borrowing, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term "Interest Period". Promptly following receipt of a Competitive Bid Request in accordance with this Section, Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of the details thereof by telecopy, inviting the Lenders to submit Competitive Bids. (b) Each Lender may (but shall not have any obligation to) make one or more Competitive Bids to the applicable Co-Borrower in response to a Competitive Bid Request. Each Competitive Bid by a Lender must be in a form approved by Administrative Agent and must be received by Administrative Agent by telecopy, in the case of a Competitive Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans, not later than 9:30 a.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the proposed date of such Competitive Borrowing, and in the case of a Fixed Rate Borrowing, not later than 9:30 a.m., New York City time, on the proposed date of such Competitive Borrowing. Competitive Bids that do not conform substantially to the form approved by Administrative Agent may be rejected by Administrative Agent, and Administrative Agent shall notify the applicable Lender as promptly as practicable. Each Competitive Bid shall specify (i) the principal amount (which shall be a minimum of $10,000,000 and an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and which may equal the entire principal amount of the Competitive Borrowing requested by the applicable Co-Borrower) of the Competitive Loan or Loans that the Lender is willing to make, (ii) the Competitive Bid Rate or Rates at which the Lender is prepared to make such Loan or Loans (expressed as a percentage rate per annum in the form of a decimal to no more than four decimal places) and (iii) the Interest Period applicable to each such Loan and the last day thereof. (c) Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the applicable Co-Borrower by telecopy of the Competitive Bid Rate and the principal amount specified in each Competitive Bid and the identity of the Lender that shall have made such Competitive Bid. (d) Subject only to the provisions of this paragraph, the applicable Co-Borrower may accept or reject any Competitive Bid. The applicable Co-Borrower shall notify Administrative Agent by telephone, confirmed by telecopy in a form approved by Administrative Agent, whether and to what extent it has decided to accept or reject each Competitive Bid, in the case of a Competitive Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans, not later than 10:30 a.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the date of the proposed Competitive Borrowing, and in the case of a Fixed Rate Borrowing, not later than 10:30 a.m., New York City time, on the proposed date of the Competitive Borrowing; provided that (i) the failure of the applicable Co-Borrower to give such notice shall be deemed to be a rejection of each Competitive Bid, (ii) the applicable Co-Borrower shall not accept a Competitive Bid made at a particular Competitive Bid Rate if the applicable Co-Borrower rejects a Competitive Bid made at a lower Competitive Bid Rate with respect to the same Competitive Bid Request, (iii) the aggregate amount of the

25 Competitive Bids accepted by the applicable Co-Borrower shall not exceed the aggregate amount of the requested Competitive Borrowing specified in the related Competitive Bid Request, (iv) to the extent necessary to comply with clause (iii) above, the applicable Co-Borrower may accept Competitive Bids at the same Competitive Bid Rate in part, which acceptance, in the case of multiple Competitive Bids at such Competitive Bid Rate, shall be made pro rata in accordance with the amount of each such Competitive Bid, and (v) except pursuant to clause (iv) above, no Competitive Bid shall be accepted for a Competitive Loan unless such Competitive Loan is in a minimum principal amount of $5,000,000 and an integral multiple of $1,000,000; provided further that if a Competitive Loan must be in an amount less than $5,000,000 because of the provisions of clause (iv) above, such Competitive Loan may be for a minimum of $1,000,000 or any integral multiple thereof, and in calculating the pro rata allocation of acceptances of portions of multiple Competitive Bids at a particular Competitive Bid Rate pursuant to clause (iv) the amounts shall be rounded to integral multiples of $1,000,000 in a manner determined by the applicable Co-Borrower. A notice given by the applicable Co-Borrower pursuant to this paragraph shall be irrevocable. (e) Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each bidding Lender by telecopy whether or not its Competitive Bid has been accepted (and, if so, the amount and Competitive Bid Rate so accepted), and each successful bidder will thereupon become bound, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, to make the Competitive Loan in respect of which its Competitive Bid has been accepted. (f) If Administrative Agent shall elect to submit a Competitive Bid in its capacity as a Lender, it shall submit such Competitive Bid directly to the applicable Co-Borrower at least one quarter of an hour earlier than the time by which the other Lenders are required to submit their Competitive Bids to Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. 2.05 Reduction or Termination of Revolving Commitments. Upon Requisite Notice to Administrative Agent not later than the Requisite Time therefor, the Co-Borrowers may at any time and from time to time, without premium or penalty, permanently and irrevocably reduce the Revolving Commitments, in a Minimum Amount therefor to an amount not less than the sum of the Outstanding Revolving Obligations at such time plus the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Competitive Loans at any time, or terminate the Revolving Commitments. Any such reduction or termination shall be accompanied by payment of all accrued and unpaid commitment fees with respect to the portion of the Revolving Commitments being reduced or terminated. Administrative Agent shall promptly notify Lenders of any such request for reduction or termination of the Revolving Commitments. Each Lender's Revolving Commitment shall be reduced pro rata by the amount of such reduction. 2.06 [RESERVED] 2.07 [RESERVED] 2.08 [RESERVED] 2.09 Prepayments. (a) Upon Requisite Notice to Administrative Agent not later than the Requisite Time therefor, each Co-Borrower may at any time and from time to time voluntarily prepay Loans made to it in part in the Minimum Amount therefor or in full without premium or penalty; provided that neither Co-Borrower may prepay any Competitive Loan without the prior written consent of the Lender thereof. Administrative Agent will promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof and of such Lender's percentage of such prepayment. Any prepayment of a Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be accompanied by all accrued interest thereon, together with the costs set forth in Section 3.05.

26 (b) If for any reason the amount of the Outstanding Revolving Obligations of all Lenders plus the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Competitive Loans at any time exceeds the combined Revolving Commitments from time to time in effect, the Co-Borrowers shall immediately prepay Revolving Loans and/or deposit cash in a Letter of Credit Cash Collateral Account in an aggregate amount equal to such excess. 2.10 Documentation of Loans. (a) Upon the request of any Lender made through Administrative Agent, a Lender's Loans may be evidenced by one or more Notes of each Co-Borrower, instead of or in addition to its loan accounts or records. Each such Lender may attach schedules to its Notes and endorse thereon the date, amount and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto. Any failure so to record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Co-Borrowers to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations. (b) Administrative Agent shall maintain, at Administrative Agent's Office, a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of Lenders and the Revolving Commitments and Extensions of Credit of each Lender from time to time (the "Register"). The Register shall be available for inspection by each Co-Borrower or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. Administrative Agent shall maintain the Register, acting, solely for this administrative purpose only, as agent for each Co-Borrower (it being acknowledged and agreed that Administrative Agent and each Administrative Agent-Related Person, in such capacity, shall constitute Indemnitees under Section 10.13). (c) Administrative Agent shall record in the Register the Revolving Commitment and Extensions of Credit from time to time of each Lender, and each repayment or prepayment in respect thereof. Any recordation shall be conclusive and binding on each Co-Borrower and each Lender, absent manifest error; provided, however, that the failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect any Lender's Revolving Commitment or Outstanding Revolving Obligations or outstanding Competitive Loans. (d) Each Lender shall record on its internal loan accounts or records (and may record on the Note(s) held by such Lender) the amount of each Extension of Credit made by it and each payment in respect thereof; provided that the failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect any Lender's Revolving Commitment or Outstanding Revolving Obligations or outstanding Competitive Loans; and provided, further, that in the event of any inconsistency between the Register and any Lender's records, the recordations in the Register shall govern, absent manifest error. (e) The Co-Borrowers, Administrative Agent and Lenders shall deem and treat the Persons listed as Lenders in the Register as the holders and owners of the corresponding Revolving Commitments and Extensions of Credit listed therein for all purposes hereof, and no assignment or transfer of any such Revolving Commitment or Extensions of Credit shall be effective, in each case, unless and until an Assignment and Acceptance effecting the assignment or transfer thereof shall have been accepted by Administrative Agent and recorded in the Register. Prior to such recordation, all amounts owed with respect to the applicable Revolving Commitment or Outstanding Revolving Obligations or outstanding Competitive Loans shall be owed to the Lender listed in the Register as the owner thereof, and any request, authority or consent of any Person who, at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent, is listed in the Register as a Lender shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder, assignee or transferee of the corresponding Revolving Commitments or Outstanding Revolving Obligations or outstanding Competitive Loans.

27 2.11 Continuation and Conversion Option. (a) Subject to Section 2.11(d), each Co-Borrower may irrevocably request a Conversion or Continuation of Loans on any Business Day in a Minimum Amount therefor by delivering a Request for Extension of Credit therefor by Requisite Notice to Administrative Agent not later than the Requisite Time therefor. All Conversions and Continuations shall constitute Base Rate Loans unless properly and timely otherwise designated as set forth in the prior sentence. (b) Unless the Co-Borrowers pay all amounts due under Section 3.05, if any, a Eurodollar Rate Loan may be Continued or Converted only on the last day of the Interest Period for such Eurodollar Rate Loan. During the existence of an Event of Default, Administrative Agent may (and upon the request of the Required Lenders shall) prohibit Loans from being requested as, Converted into, or Continued as Eurodollar Rate Loans, and Required Lenders may demand that any or all of the then outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loans be Converted immediately into Base Rate Loans. (c) Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Co-Borrower and Lenders of the interest rate applicable to any Eurodollar Rate Loan upon determination of the same. Administrative Agent shall from time to time notify each Co-Borrower and Lenders of any change in JPMorgan Chase's prime rate used in determining the Base Rate promptly following the public announcement of such change. (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Competitive Loans may not be Converted or Continued. 2.12 Interest. (a) Subject to subsection (b) below, and unless otherwise specified herein, each Co-Borrower hereby promises to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Loan made to it (before and after default, before and after maturity, before and after judgment and before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Laws) from the date borrowed until paid in full (whether by acceleration or otherwise) on each Applicable Payment Date at a rate per annum equal to: (i) in the case of Base Rate Loans, the Base Rate plus the Applicable Amount for such type of Loan; (ii) in the case of Eurodollar Rate Loans (other than Competitive Loans), the Eurodollar Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Amount for such type of Loan; (iii) in the case of Competitive Loans that are Eurodollar Rate Loans, the Eurodollar Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus (or minus, as the case may be) Margin applicable to such Loan; and (iv) in the case of Fixed Rate Loans, at the Fixed Rate applicable to such Loan. (b) Beginning on the date that an Event of Default occurs under Section 8.01 and continuing until the date such Event of Default no longer exists, each Co-Borrower hereby promises to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Loan made to it (before or after judgment and before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Laws) at a rate per annum equal to the Default Rate. In addition, if any amount payable by a Co-Borrower under any Loan Document is not paid when due (without regard to any applicable grace periods), such Co-Borrower hereby promises to pay interest (after as well as before entry of judgment thereon to the extent permitted by

28 law) on such amount at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law. Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be payable upon demand. (c) On any Business Day, either Co-Borrower may call Administrative Agent and request information as to the then current Eurodollar Base Rate or Base Rate, and Administrative Agent shall provide such information. 2.13 Fees. (a) Commitment Fee. Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent, on its own behalf and on behalf of CCCHI, for the account of each Lender pro rata according to its Revolving Percentage a commitment fee equal to the Applicable Amount times the average daily amount of the excess, if any, of its Revolving Commitment over its Outstanding Revolving Obligations (it being understood, for avoidance of doubt, that for purposes of the calculation of the commitment fee, Competitive Loans shall not be deemed to be a utilization of the Revolving Facility). The commitment fee shall accrue at all times from the Effective Date until the Revolving Termination Date and shall be payable quarterly in arrears on each Applicable Payment Date. If there is any change in the Applicable Amount during any quarter, the actual daily amount shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Amount separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Amount was in effect. The commitment fee shall accrue at all applicable times, including at any time during which one or more conditions in Section 4 are not met. (b) Utilization Fee. Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent, on its own behalf and on behalf of CCCHI, for the account of each Lender pro rata according to its Revolving Percentage, a utilization fee, equal to the Applicable Amount times the outstanding principal amount of Revolving Loans made to it (including Letter of Credit Usage for this purpose), for each day that the Outstanding Revolving Obligations on such day exceeds 50.0% of the combined Revolving Commitments on such day (it being understood, for avoidance of doubt, that for purposes of the calculation of the utilization fee, Competitive Loans shall not be deemed to be a utilization of the Revolving Facility). The utilization fee shall be payable quarterly in arrears on each Applicable Payment Date. The utilization fee shall accrue at all applicable times, including at any time during which one or more conditions in Section 4 are not met. (c) Other Fees. Borrower agrees to pay to Administrative Agent, on its own behalf and on behalf of CCCHI, the fees in the amounts and on the dates previously agreed to in writing by Borrower and Administrative Agent. 2.14 Computation of Interest and Fees. Computation of interest on Base Rate Loans when the Base Rate is determined by JPMorgan Chase's "prime rate" shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and the actual number of days elapsed. Computation of all other types of interest and all fees shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days and the actual number of days elapsed. Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid, provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall bear interest for one day. 2.15 Making Payments. (a) Except as otherwise provided herein, all payments by a Co-Borrower or any Lender hereunder shall be made to Administrative Agent at Administrative Agent's Office not later than the Requisite Time for such type of payment. All payments received after such Requisite Time shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of the calculation of interest and fees, but not for purposes of determining whether a Default has occurred. All payments of principal and

29 interest shall be made in immediately available funds in Dollars. All payments by a Co-Borrower shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. (b) Upon satisfaction of any applicable terms and conditions set forth herein, Administrative Agent shall promptly make any amounts received in accordance with Section 2.15(a) available in like funds received as follows: (i) if payable to a Co-Borrower, by crediting a deposit account designated from time to time by such Co-Borrower to Administrative Agent by Requisite Notice, and (ii) if payable to any Lender, by wire transfer to such Lender at its Lending Office. If such conditions are not so satisfied, Administrative Agent shall return any funds it is holding to the Lenders making such funds available, without interest. (c) Subject to the definition of "Interest Period," if any payment to be made by a Co-Borrower shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall instead be considered due on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest and fees. (d) Unless a Co-Borrower or any Lender has notified Administrative Agent, prior to the Requisite Time any payment to be made by it is due, that it does not intend to remit such payment, Administrative Agent may, in its sole and absolute discretion, assume that such Co-Borrower or such Lender, as the case may be, has timely remitted such payment and may, in its sole and absolute discretion and in reliance thereon, make such payment available to the Person entitled thereto. If such payment was not in fact remitted to Administrative Agent in immediately available funds, then: (i) If a Co-Borrower failed to make such payment, each Lender shall forthwith on demand repay to Administrative Agent the amount of such assumed payment made available to such Lender, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such amount was made available by Administrative Agent to such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to Administrative Agent at the Federal Funds Rate; and (ii) If any Lender failed to make such payment, Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount on demand from such Lender. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount upon Administrative Agent's demand therefor, Administrative Agent promptly shall notify the relevant Co-Borrower, and such Co-Borrower shall pay such corresponding amount to Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent also shall be entitled to recover interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding amount was made available by Administrative Agent to a Co-Borrower to the date such corresponding amount is recovered by Administrative Agent, (A) from such Lender at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate, and (B) from such Co-Borrower, at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable to such Borrowing. Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Revolving Commitment or to prejudice any rights which Administrative Agent or a Co-Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder. (e) If Administrative Agent or any Lender is required at any time to return to a Co-Borrower, or to a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or any official under any proceeding under Debtor Relief Laws, any portion of a payment made by such Co-Borrower, each Lender shall, on demand of Administrative Agent, return its share of the amount to be returned, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate.

30 2.16 Funding Sources. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner. SECTION 3 TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY 3.01 Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by a Co-Borrower to or for the account of Administrative Agent or any Lender under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, assessments, fees, withholdings or similar charges, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding, in the case of Administrative Agent and each Lender, (x) taxes imposed on or measured by its net income, and franchise taxes imposed on it, by the jurisdiction (or any political subdivision thereof) under the Laws of which Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, is organized or maintains a Lending Office and (y) in the case of a Lender organized under the Laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States (other than an assignee pursuant to a request by the Borrower under Section 3.06(b)), any withholding tax that is imposed on amounts payable to such Lender at the time such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement (or designates a new lending office) or is attributable to such Lender's failure to comply with Section 10.20, except to the extent that such Lender (or its assignor, if any) was entitled, at the time of designation of a new lending office (or assignment), to receive additional amounts from the Borrower with respect to such withholding tax pursuant to this Section (all such non-excluded taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, assessments, fees, withholdings or similar charges, and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as "Taxes"). If a Co-Borrower shall be required by any Laws to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under any Loan Document to Administrative Agent or any Lender, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section), Administrative Agent and such Lender receive an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Co-Borrower shall make such deductions, (iii) such Co-Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable Laws, and (iv) within 30 days after the date of such payment, such Co-Borrower shall furnish to Administrative Agent (who shall forward the same to such Lender) the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof. (b) In addition, each Co-Borrower agrees to pay any and all present or future stamp, court or documentary taxes and any other excise or property taxes or charges or similar levies which arise from any payment made by it under any Loan Document or from the execution, delivery, performance, enforcement or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, any Loan Document (hereinafter referred to as "Other Taxes"). (c) If a Co-Borrower shall be required to deduct or pay any Taxes or Other Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under any Loan Document to Administrative Agent or any Lender, such Co-Borrower shall also pay to Administrative Agent or such Lender such additional amount that Administrative Agent or such Lender specifies as necessary to preserve the after-tax yield (after factoring in all taxes, including taxes imposed on or measured by net income) that Administrative Agent or such Lender would have received if such Taxes or Other Taxes had not been imposed. (d) Each Co-Borrower agrees to indemnify Administrative Agent and each Lender for the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes (including any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted by

31 any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section) paid by Administrative Agent and such Lender, amounts payable under Section 3.01(c) and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto. (e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 3.01, all obligations of each Co-Borrower to any Lender under this Section 3.01 shall be subject to, and conditioned upon such Lender's compliance with its obligations, if any, under, Section 10.20. 3.02 Illegality. If any Lender determines that any Laws have made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for such Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Eurodollar Rate Loans, or materially restricts the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars in the applicable offshore interbank market, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to each Co-Borrower through Administrative Agent, the obligation of such Lender to make Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended until such Lender notifies Administrative Agent and each Co-Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, each Co-Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to Administrative Agent), prepay or Convert all Eurodollar Rate Loans of such Lender made to such Co-Borrower, either on the last day of the Interest Period thereof, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loans. Each Lender agrees to designate a different Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for such notice and will not, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender. 3.03 Inability to Determine Eurodollar Rates. If, in connection with any Request for Extension of Credit involving any Eurodollar Rate Loan, (a) Administrative Agent determines that (i) deposits in Dollars are not being offered to banks in the applicable offshore dollar market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of the requested Eurodollar Rate Loan or (ii) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the underlying interest rate for such Eurodollar Rate Loan, or (b) Required Lenders (or, in the case of a Competitive Loan that is a Eurodollar Rate Loan, the Lender that is required to make such Loan) determine that such underlying interest rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to Lenders (or Lender) of funding such Eurodollar Rate Loan, Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Co-Borrower and all Lenders. Thereafter, the obligation of Lenders (or Lender) to make or maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be suspended until Administrative Agent revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, each Co-Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans or, failing that, be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein. 3.04 Increased Cost and Reduced Return; Capital Adequacy. (a) If any Lender determines that the adoption of any Law or any change in any Law or in the interpretation thereof effective after the date hereof: (i) Subjects such Lender to any tax, duty, or other charge with respect to any Eurodollar Rate Loans or Fixed Rate Loans or its obligation to make Eurodollar Rate Loans or Fixed Rate Loans, or changes the basis on which taxes are imposed on any amounts payable to such Lender under this Agreement in respect of any Eurodollar Rate Loans; (ii) Imposes or modifies any reserve, special deposit, or similar requirement (other than the reserve requirement utilized in the determination of the Eurodollar Rate)

32 relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or other liabilities or commitments of, such Lender (including its Revolving Commitment); or (iii) Imposes on such Lender or on the offshore interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or any of such extensions of credit or liabilities or commitments; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of making, Converting into, Continuing, or maintaining any Eurodollar Rate Loans or Fixed Rate Loans or to reduce any sum received or receivable by such Lender under this Agreement with respect to any Eurodollar Rate Loans or Fixed Rate Loans, then from time to time upon demand of Lender (with a copy of such demand to Administrative Agent), each Co-Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amounts attributable to such Co-Borrower as will compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduction. (b) If any Lender determines that the adoption of any Law or any change in any Law or in the interpretation thereof effective after the date hereof has the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of such Lender or compliance by such Lender (or its Lending Office) or any corporation controlling such Lender as a consequence of such Lender's obligations hereunder (taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy and such Lender's desired return on capital), then from time to time upon demand of such Lender (with a copy to Administrative Agent), each Co-Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amounts attributable to such Co-Borrower as will compensate such Lender for such reduction. (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section, a Lender shall not be entitled to compensation pursuant to this Section in respect of any Competitive Loan if the adoption of or change in Law or in the interpretation thereof that would otherwise entitle it to such compensation shall have been publicly announced prior to submission of the Competitive Bid pursuant to which such Loan was made. 3.05 Breakfunding Costs. Subject to Section 3.06(a), upon demand of any Lender (with a copy to Administrative Agent) from time to time, each Co-Borrower shall promptly compensate such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any actual loss, cost or expense incurred by it as a result of: (a) Any Continuation, Conversion, payment or prepayment by such Co-Borrower of any Eurodollar Rate Loan or Fixed Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Eurodollar Rate Loan or Fixed Rate Loan (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration or otherwise); (b) Any failure by such Co-Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a Eurodollar Rate Loan or Fixed Rate Loan) to prepay, borrow, Continue or Convert any Eurodollar Rate Loan or Fixed Rate Loan on the date or in the amount notified by such Co-Borrower; or (c) Any failure by such Co-Borrower to borrow any Competitive Loan after accepting the Competitive Bid to make such Loan; excluding any loss of anticipated profits but including any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained. 3.06 Matters Applicable to all Requests for Compensation.

33 (a) A certificate of Administrative Agent or any Lender claiming compensation under this Section 3 and setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder shall be conclusive in the absence of clearly demonstrable error; provided that such certificate (i) sets forth with reasonable specificity the calculation of the amount to be paid, (ii) states that Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, is treating substantially all similarly situated borrowers in a manner that is consistent with the treatment afforded the Co-Borrowers hereunder, (iii) is delivered within 90 days of the later of the date of the event giving rise to such compensation and the date Administrative Agent or such Lender knew or, with the exercise of reasonable care, should have known of the requirements for such compensation, and (iv) confirms (in the case of a claim for compensation under Section 3.01 or Section 3.04) that either a change in Administrative Agent's Office or Lending Office, as the case may be, of Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, would not have eliminated the request for compensation or that such change would have been otherwise disadvantageous to Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be. In determining the amount of such compensation, Administrative Agent or any Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods. (b) Upon any Lender becoming prohibited from making, maintaining or funding Eurodollar Rate Loans pursuant to Section 3.02, or upon any Lender making a claim for compensation under Section 3.01 or Section 3.04, Borrower may remove and replace such Lender in accordance with Section 10.21. 3.07 Survival. All of the Co-Borrowers' obligations under this Section 3 shall survive termination of the Revolving Commitments and payment in full of all Obligations.

Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default unless Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender or either Co-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 Administrative Agent receives such a notice, Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to Lenders. Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders); provided that unless and until Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, 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 Lenders. 9.06 Non-Reliance on Agents and Other Lenders. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Agents nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates have made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by any

48 Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of a Loan Party or any affiliate of a Loan Party, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Agents that it has, independently and without reliance upon any 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 Loan Parties and their affiliates 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 any 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 this Agreement and the other 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 Loan Parties and their affiliates. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to Lenders by Administrative Agent hereunder, 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 any Loan Party or any affiliate of a Loan Party that may come into the possession of Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates. 9.07 Indemnification. Lenders agree to indemnify each Agent and Issuing Bank in its capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed by the Loan Parties and without limiting the obligation of any Loan Party to do so), ratably according to their respective Aggregate Exposure Percentage in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this Section (or, if indemnification is sought after the date upon which the Revolving Commitments shall have terminated and the Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with such Aggregate Exposure Percentage immediately prior to such date), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (whether before or after the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent in any way relating to or arising out of, the Revolving Commitments, this Agreement, 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 such 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 that are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such 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. 9.08 Agent in Its Individual Capacity. Each Agent and its affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with any Loan Party as though such Agent were not an Agent. With respect to its Loans made or renewed by it and with respect to any Letter of Credit issued or participated in by it, each 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 an Agent, and the terms "Lender" and "Lenders" shall include each Agent in its individual capacity. 9.09 Successor Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent upon 30 days' notice to Lenders and Borrower. If Administrative Agent shall resign as Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, then the Required Lenders shall appoint from among Lenders a successor agent for Lenders, which successor agent shall (unless an Event of Default under Section 8.01(a), Section 8.01(b) or Section 8.01(i) with respect to Borrower shall have occurred and be continuing) be subject to approval by Borrower (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to the

49 rights, powers and duties of Administrative Agent, and the term "Administrative Agent" shall mean such successor agent effective upon such appointment and approval, 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. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent by the date that is 30 days following a retiring Administrative Agent's notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent's resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective, and Lenders shall assume and perform all of the duties of Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above. After any retiring Administrative Agent's resignation as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 9 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. 9.10 Co-Documentation Agents and Syndication Agent. None of Co-Documentation Agents nor Syndication Agent shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty hereunder in its capacity as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of Co-Documentation Agents or Syndication Agent in its capacity as such shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any of Co-Documentation Agents or Syndication Agent in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder. SECTION 10 MISCELLANEOUS 10.01 Amendments; Consents. No amendment, modification, supplement, extension, termination or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, no approval or consent thereunder, and no consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall be effective unless in writing signed by each Loan Party party thereto and Required Lenders and acknowledged by Administrative Agent (or signed by Administrative Agent with the prior written consent of Required Lenders), and each such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, without the approval in writing of each Co-Borrower, Administrative Agent and each Lender affected thereby, no amendment, modification, supplement, termination, waiver, approval, or consent may be effective to: (a) Reduce the amount of principal of any Outstanding Revolving Obligations owed to such Lender; (b) Reduce the rate of interest payable on any Outstanding Revolving Obligations owed to such Lender or the amount or rate of any fee or other amount payable to such Lender under the Loan Documents, except that Required Lenders may waive or defer the imposition of the Default Rate; (c) Waive an Event of Default consisting of the failure of a Co-Borrower to pay when due principal, interest, any commitment or utilization fee, or any other amount payable to such Lender under the Loan Documents; (d) Postpone any date scheduled for the payment of principal of, or interest on, any Loan or any Letter of Credit reimbursement obligation or for the payment of any commitment or utilization fee or for the payment of any other amount, in each case payable to such Lender under the Loan Documents, or extend the term of, or increase the amount of, such Lender's Revolving Commitment (it being

50 understood that a waiver of any Event of Default not referred to in subsection (c) above shall require only the consent of Required Lenders) or modify such Lender's share of the Revolving Commitments (except as contemplated hereby); (e) Amend or waive the definition of "Required Lenders" or the provisions of this Section 10.01 or Section 10.06; or (f) Amend or waive any provision of this Agreement that expressly requires the consent or approval of such Lender; provided, however, that (i) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the affected Issuing Lender in addition to Required Lenders or each affected Lender, as the case may be, affect the rights or duties of such Issuing Lender, (ii) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by Administrative Agent in addition to Required Lenders or each affected Lender, as the case may be, affect the rights or duties of Administrative Agent, (iii) any fee letters may be amended, or rights or privileges thereunder waived, in a writing executed by the parties thereto; (iv) any amendment, waiver, or consent to a Letter of Credit Application which is not inconsistent with Section 2.03 shall require only the written approval of the relevant Co-Borrower, Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Lender; and (v) without the written consent of all Lenders, no amendment, waiver or consent shall release (x) all or substantially all of Guarantors from their obligations under the Guarantee Agreement or (y) Borrower from its obligations under the Guarantee Agreement. Any amendment, modification, supplement, termination, waiver or consent pursuant to this Section shall apply equally to, and shall be binding upon, all Lenders and Administrative Agent. 10.02 Requisite Notice; Effectiveness of Signatures and Electronic Mail. (a) Requisite Notice. Notices given in connection with any Loan Document shall be delivered to the intended recipient at the number and/or address set forth on the Administrative Questionnaire (or as otherwise specified from time to time by such recipient in writing to Administrative Agent) and shall be given by (i) irrevocable written notice or (ii) except as otherwise provided, irrevocable telephonic (not voicemail) notice. Such notices may be delivered, must be confirmed and shall be effective as follows: Mode of Delivery - ---------------- Mail Effective on earlier of actual receipt and fourth Business Day after deposit in U.S. Mail, first class postage pre-paid Courier or hand delivery When signed for by recipient Telephone (not voicemail) When conversation completed (must be confirmed in writing) Facsimile When confirmed by telephone (not voicemail) Electronic Mail When delivered (usage subject to subsection (c) below) provided, however, that notices delivered to Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2 shall not be effective until actually received by Administrative Agent;

51 provided, further, that Administrative Agent may require that any notice be confirmed or followed by a manually-signed hard copy thereof. Notices shall be in any form prescribed herein and, if sent by a Co-Borrower, shall be made by a Responsible Officer of such Co-Borrower. Notices delivered and, if required, confirmed in accordance with this subsection shall be deemed to have been delivered by Requisite Notice. (b) Effectiveness of Facsimile Documents and Signatures. Loan Documents may be transmitted and/or signed by facsimile. The effectiveness of any such documents and signatures shall, subject to applicable Law, have the same force and effect as manually-signed hard copies and shall be binding on each Co-Borrower, Administrative Agent and Lenders. Administrative Agent may also require that any such documents and signatures be confirmed by a manually-signed hard copy thereof; provided, however, that the failure to request or deliver the same shall not limit the effectiveness of any facsimile document or signature. (c) Limited Usage of Electronic Mail. Electronic mail and internet and intranet websites may be used to distribute routine communications, such as financial statements and other information, and to distribute agreements and other documents to be signed by Administrative Agent, Lenders and Co-Borrowers. No other legally-binding and/or time-sensitive communication or Request for Extension of Credit may be sent by electronic mail without the consent of, or confirmation to, the intended recipient in each instance. (d) Reliance by Administrative Agent and Lenders. Administrative Agent and Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices purportedly given by or on behalf of a Co-Borrower even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other notice specified herein, or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. Borrower shall indemnify Administrative Agent-Related Persons and Lenders from any loss, cost, expense or liability as a result of relying on any notices purportedly given by or on behalf of a Co-Borrower absent the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Person seeking indemnification. 10.03 Attorney Costs, Expenses and Taxes. Borrower agrees (a) to pay or reimburse Administrative Agent and Syndication Agent for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with the development, preparation, negotiation and execution of the Loan Documents, and to pay or reimburse Administrative Agent for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with the development, preparation, negotiation and execution of any amendment, waiver, consent, supplement or modification to, any Loan Documents, and any other documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith, and the consummation and administration of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including all Attorney Costs of Administrative Agent and (b) to pay or reimburse Administrative Agent and each Lender for all costs and expenses incurred in connection with any restructuring, reorganization (including a bankruptcy reorganization) or enforcement or attempted enforcement of, or preservation of any rights under, any Loan Documents, and any other documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith, or in connection with any refinancing or restructuring of any such documents in the nature of a "workout" or of any insolvency or bankruptcy proceeding, including Attorney Costs. The agreements in this Section shall survive repayment of all Obligations. 10.04 Binding Effect; Assignment. (a) This Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which Borrower is a party will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Co-Borrowers, Administrative Agent, Lenders and their respective successors and assigns, except that, a Co-Borrower may not, except as permitted by Section 7.03, assign its rights hereunder or thereunder or any interest herein or therein without the prior written consent of all Lenders and any such attempted assignment shall be void. Any Lender may at any time

52 pledge a Note or any other instrument evidencing its rights as a Lender under this Agreement to a Federal Reserve Bank or, if such Lender is a fund, to any trustee or to any other representative of holders of obligations owed or securities issued by such fund as security for such obligations or securities, but no such pledge shall release such Lender from its obligations hereunder or grant to such Federal Reserve Bank or trust or other representative the rights of a Lender hereunder absent foreclosure of such pledge, and any transfer to any Person upon the enforcement of such pledge shall be subject to this Section 10.04. (b) From time to time following the date of this Agreement, each Lender may assign to one or more banks, financial institutions or other entities (with any such bank, financial institution or other entity that is not an Affiliate of the assigning Lender being required to have a combined capital and surplus of at least $250,000,000 (such qualifications being subject to waiver by Borrower and Administrative Agent)), all or any portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided that (i) such assignment, if not to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender, shall be consented to (which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld) by Borrower at all times other than during the existence of an Event of Default and by Administrative Agent, (ii) a copy of a duly signed and completed Assignment and Acceptance shall be delivered to Administrative Agent, (iii) except in the case of an assignment (A) to an Affiliate of a Lender or to another Lender or (B) of the entire remaining Revolving Commitment of the assigning Lender, such assignment shall be in an aggregate principal amount not less than the Minimum Amount therefor, and (iv) the effective date of any such assignment shall be as specified in the Assignment and Acceptance, but not earlier than the date which is five Business Days after the date Administrative Agent has received the Assignment and Acceptance. Upon obtaining any consent required as set forth in the prior sentence, any forms required by Section 10.20 and payment of the requisite fee described below, the assignee named therein shall be a Lender for all purposes of this Agreement to the extent of the Assigned Interest (as defined in such Assignment and Acceptance), and, except for rights and obligations which by their terms survive termination of any Revolving Commitments, the assigning Lender shall be released from any further obligations under this Agreement to the extent of such Assigned Interest. Upon request, Co-Borrowers shall execute and deliver new or replacement Notes to the assigning Lender and the assignee Lender to evidence Loans made by them. Administrative Agent's consent to any assignment shall not be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Administrative Agent-Related Person as to any matter. Administrative Agent shall record the information contained in the Assignment and Acceptance in the Register. (c) After receipt of a completed Assignment and Acceptance, and receipt of an assignment fee of $3,500 from such assignee and/or such assigning Lender (including in the case of assignments to Affiliates of assigning Lenders), Administrative Agent shall promptly accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the information contained therein in the Register on the effective date determined pursuant thereto. (d) Each Lender may from time to time, without the consent of any other Person, grant participations to one or more other Persons (including another Lender) in all or any portion of its Revolving Commitments, Extensions of Credit or any other interest of such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents; provided, however, that (i) such Lender's obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) the participating bank or other financial institution shall not be a Lender hereunder for any purpose except, if the participation agreement so provides, for the purposes of the increased cost provisions of Section 3 (but only to the extent that the cost of such benefits to Borrower does not exceed the cost which Borrower would have incurred in respect of such Lender absent the participation) and for purposes of Section 10.06, (iv) Borrower, Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, and (v) the consent of the holder of such participation interest shall not be required for amendments or waivers of provisions of the Loan Documents; provided,

53 however, that the assigning Lender may, in any agreement with a participant, give such participant the right to consent (as between the assigning Lender and such participant) to any matter which (A) extends the Revolving Termination Date as to such participant or any other date upon which any payment of money is due to such participant, (B) reduces the rate of interest owing to such participant or any fee or any other monetary amount owing to such participant, or (C) reduces the amount of any scheduled payment of principal owing to such participant. Any Lender that sells a participation to any Person that is a "foreign corporation, partnership or trust" within the meaning of the Code shall include in its participation agreement with such Person a covenant by such Person that such Person will comply with the provisions of Section 10.20 as if such Person were a Lender and provide that Administrative Agent and Borrower shall be third party beneficiaries of such covenant. Each Lender that sells or grants a participation shall (a) withhold or deduct from each payment to the holder of such participation the amount of any tax required under applicable law to be withheld or deducted from such payment and not withheld or deducted therefrom by Borrower or Administrative Agent, (b) pay the tax so withheld or deducted by it to the appropriate taxing authority in accordance with applicable law and (c) indemnify Borrower and Administrative Agent for any losses, cost and expenses that they may incur as a result of any failure to so withhold or deduct and pay such tax. 10.05 Set-off. In addition to any rights and remedies of Administrative Agent and Lenders or any assignee of any Lender or any Affiliate thereof (each, a "Proceeding Party") provided by law, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Proceeding Party is authorized at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to Co-Borrowers, any such notice being waived by Co-Borrowers to the fullest extent permitted by law, to proceed directly, by right of set-off, banker's lien or otherwise, against any assets of the Co-Borrowers which may be in the hands of such Proceeding Party (including all general or special, time or demand, provisional or other deposits and other indebtedness owing by such Proceeding Party to or for the credit or the account of the Co-Borrowers) and apply such assets against the Obligations then due and payable, irrespective of whether such Proceeding Party shall have made any demand therefor. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Co-Borrower and Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Lender; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. 10.06 Sharing of Payments. Each Lender severally agrees that if it, through the exercise of any right of setoff, banker's lien or counterclaim against a Co-Borrower or otherwise, receives payment of the Obligations held by it that is ratably more than any other Lender receives in payment of the Obligations held by such other Lender, then, subject to applicable Laws, (a) such Lender exercising the right of setoff, banker's lien or counterclaim or otherwise receiving such payment shall purchase, and shall be deemed to have simultaneously purchased, from the other Lender a participation in the Obligations held by the other Lender and shall pay to the other Lender a purchase price in an amount so that the share of the Obligations held by each Lender after the exercise of the right of setoff, banker's lien or counterclaim or receipt of payment shall be in the same proportion that existed prior to the exercise of the right of setoff, banker's lien or counterclaim or receipt of payment; and (b) such other adjustments and purchases of participations shall be made from time to time as shall be equitable to ensure that all Lenders share any payment obtained in respect of the Obligations ratably in accordance with each Lender's share of the Obligations immediately prior to, and without taking into account, the payment; provided that, if all or any portion of a disproportionate payment obtained as a result of the exercise of the right of setoff, banker's lien, counterclaim or otherwise is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Lender by a Co-Borrower or any Person claiming through or succeeding to the rights of a Co-Borrower, the purchase of a participation shall be rescinded and the purchase price thereof shall be restored to the extent of the recovery, but without interest. Each Lender that purchases a participation in the Obligations pursuant to this Section shall from and after the purchase have the right to give all notices, requests, demands, directions and other communications under this Agreement with respect to the portion of the Obligations purchased to the same extent as though the purchasing Lender were the original owner of the Obligations

54 purchased. Each Co-Borrower expressly consents to the foregoing arrangements and agrees that any Lender holding a participation in an Obligation so purchased may exercise any and all rights of setoff, banker's lien or counterclaim with respect to the participation as fully as if Lender were the original owner of the Obligation purchased. 10.07 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. (a) No failure by any Lender or Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay by any Lender or Administrative Agent in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege under any Loan Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. (b) The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein or therein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by Law. Any decision by Administrative Agent or any Lender not to require payment of any interest (including interest at the Default Rate), fee, cost or other amount payable under any Loan Document or to calculate any amount payable by a particular method on any occasion shall in no way limit or be deemed a waiver of Administrative Agent's or such Lender's right to require full payment thereof, or to calculate an amount payable by another method that is not inconsistent with this Agreement, on any other or subsequent occasion. (c) Except with respect to Section 9.09, the terms and conditions of Section 9 are for the sole benefit of the Agents and Lenders. 10.08 Usury. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the "Maximum Rate"). If Administrative Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excessive interest shall be applied to the principal of the Outstanding Revolving Obligations or, if it exceeds the unpaid principal, refunded to the applicable Co-Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged or received by Administrative Agent or any Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate and spread, in equal or unequal parts, the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations. 10.09 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. 10.10 Integration. This Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents and any letter agreements referred to herein, comprises the complete and integrated agreement of the parties regarding the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements, written or oral, on the subject matter hereof. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and those of any other Loan Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall control and govern; provided that the inclusion of supplemental rights or remedies in favor of Administrative Agent or Lenders in any other Loan Document shall not be deemed a conflict with this Agreement. Each Loan Document was drafted with the joint participation of the respective parties thereto and shall be construed neither against nor in favor of any party, but rather in accordance with the fair meaning thereof. THE LOAN DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES THERETO AND MAY NOT

55 BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS, OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS BY SUCH PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN SUCH PARTIES. 10.11 Nature of Lenders' Obligations. Nothing contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document and no action taken by Administrative Agent or Lenders or any of them pursuant hereto or thereto may, or may be deemed to, make Lenders a partnership, an association, a joint venture or other entity, either among themselves or with Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of Borrower. Each Lender's obligation to make any Extension of Credit pursuant hereto is several and not joint or joint and several. A default by any Lender will not increase the Revolving Commitments attributable to any other Lender. 10.12 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document shall survive the execution and delivery thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by Administrative Agent and each Lender, notwithstanding any investigation made by Administrative Agent or any Lender or on their behalf. 10.13 Indemnity by Co-Borrowers. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the Co-Borrowers jointly and severally agree to indemnify, save and hold harmless each Administrative Agent-Related Person and each Lender and their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, agents, attorneys and employees (collectively the "Indemnitees") from and against: (i) any and all claims, demands, actions or causes of action that are asserted against any Indemnitee by any Person (other than Administrative Agent or any Lender) relating directly or indirectly to a claim, demand, action or cause of action that such Person asserts or may assert against a Co-Borrower, any of its Affiliates or any of its officers or directors; (ii) any and all claims, demands, actions or causes of action arising out of or relating to the Loan Documents, the Revolving Commitments, the use or contemplated use of the proceeds of any Extension of Credit, or the relationship of the Co-Borrowers, Administrative Agent and Lenders under this Agreement; (iii) any administrative or investigative proceeding by any Governmental Authority arising out of or related to a claim, demand, action or cause of action described in subsection (i) or (ii) above; and (iv) any and all liabilities (including liabilities under indemnities), losses, costs or expenses (including Attorney Costs (limited to one law firm for Lenders unless Lenders have differing interests or defenses that preclude the engagement of one law firm to represent Lenders)) that any Indemnitee suffers or incurs as a result of the assertion of any foregoing claim, demand, action, cause of action or proceeding, or as a result of the preparation of any defense in connection with any foregoing claim, demand, action, cause of action or proceeding, in all cases, including settlement costs incurred with the prior written consent of Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), whether or not arising out of the negligence of an Indemnitee, and whether or not an Indemnitee is a party to such claim, demand, action, cause of action or proceeding (all the foregoing, collectively, the "Indemnified Liabilities"); provided that no Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification for any loss caused by its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The agreements in this Section shall survive repayment of all Obligations. 10.14 Nonliability of Lenders. Each Co-Borrower acknowledges and agrees that: (a) Any inspections of any property of any Co-Borrower made by or through Administrative Agent or Lenders are for purposes of administration of the Loan Documents only, and neither Co-Borrower is entitled to rely upon the same (whether or not such inspections are at the expense of a Co-Borrower);

56 (b) By accepting or approving anything required to be observed, performed, fulfilled or given to Administrative Agent or Lenders pursuant to the Loan Documents, neither Administrative Agent nor Lenders shall be deemed to have warranted or represented the sufficiency, legality, effectiveness or legal effect of the same, or of any term, provision or condition thereof, and such acceptance or approval thereof shall not constitute a warranty or representation to anyone with respect thereto by Administrative Agent or Lenders; (c) The relationship between the Co-Borrowers and Administrative Agent and Lenders is, and shall at all times remain, solely that of borrower and lenders; neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall under any circumstance be deemed to be in a relationship of confidence or trust or a fiduciary relationship with Borrower or its Affiliates, or to owe any fiduciary duty to Borrower or its Affiliates; neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender undertakes or assumes any responsibility or duty to Borrower or its Affiliates to select, review, inspect, supervise, pass judgment upon or inform Borrower or its Affiliates of any matter in connection with their property or the operations of Borrower or its Affiliates; Borrower and its Affiliates shall rely entirely upon their own judgment with respect to such matters; and any review, inspection, supervision, exercise of judgment or supply of information undertaken or assumed by Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with such matters is solely for the protection of Administrative Agent and Lenders and neither Borrower nor any other Person is entitled to rely thereon; and (d) Neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall be responsible or liable to any Person for any loss, damage, liability or claim of any kind relating to injury or death to Persons or damage to property caused by the actions, inaction or negligence of Borrower and/or its Affiliates and Borrower hereby indemnifies and holds Administrative Agent and Lenders harmless from any such loss, damage, liability or claim. 10.15 No Third Parties Benefitted. This Agreement is made for the purpose of defining and setting forth certain obligations, rights and duties of the Co-Borrowers, Administrative Agent and Lenders in connection with the Extensions of Credit, and is made for the sole benefit of the Co-Borrowers, Administrative Agent and Lenders, Administrative Agent's and Lenders' successors and permitted assigns. Except as provided in Section 10.04, no other Person shall have any rights of any nature hereunder or by reason hereof. 10.16 Severability. Any provision of the Loan Documents that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective and severable to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions thereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. Administrative Agent, Lenders and Borrower agree to negotiate, in good faith, the terms of a replacement provision as similar to the severed provision as may be possible and be legal, valid, and enforceable. 10.17 Confidentiality. Administrative Agent and each Lender shall use any confidential non-public information concerning Borrower and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates that is furnished to Administrative Agent or such Lender by or on behalf of Borrower and its Subsidiaries in connection with the Loan Documents (collectively, "Confidential Information") solely for the purpose of administering and enforcing the Loan Documents, and it will hold the Confidential Information in confidence. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Administrative Agent and each Lender may disclose Confidential Information (a) to their affiliates or any of their or their affiliates' directors, officers, employees, auditors, counsel, advisors, or representatives (collectively, the "Representatives") who need to know such information for the purposes set forth in this Section and who have been advised of and acknowledge their obligation to keep such information confidential in accordance with this Section, (b) to

57 any bank or financial institution or other entity to which such Lender has assigned or desires to assign an interest or participation in the Loan Documents or the Obligations, provided that any such foregoing recipient of such Confidential Information agrees to keep such Confidential Information confidential as specified herein, (c) to any governmental agency or regulatory body having or claiming to have authority to regulate or oversee any aspect of Administrative Agent's or such Lender's business or that of their Representatives in connection with the exercise of such authority or claimed authority, (d) to the extent necessary or appropriate to enforce any right or remedy or in connection with any claims asserted by or against Administrative Agent or such Lender or any of their Representatives, and (e) pursuant to any subpoena or any similar legal process. For purposes hereof, the term "Confidential Information" shall not include information that (x) is in Administrative Agent's or a Lender's possession prior to its being provided by or on behalf of Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, provided that such information is not known by Administrative Agent or such Lender to be subject to another confidentiality agreement with, or other legal or contractual obligation of confidentiality to, Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, (y) is or becomes publicly available (other than through a breach hereof by Administrative Agent or such Lender), or (z) becomes available to Administrative Agent or such Lender on a nonconfidential basis, provided that the source of such information was not known by Administrative Agent or such Lender to be bound by a confidentiality agreement or other legal or contractual obligation of confidentiality with respect to such information. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any party subject to confidentiality obligations hereunder or under any other related document (and any employee, representative or other agent of such party) may disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of this Agreement and all materials of any kind, including opinions or other tax analyses, that have been provided to it by any other party relating to such tax treatment and tax structure. 10.18 Headings. Section headings in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are included for convenience of reference only and are not part of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents for any other purpose. 10.19 Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence of the Loan Documents. 10.20 Foreign Lenders. Each Lender organized under the Laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States, on or prior to the date of this Agreement in the case of each Lender listed on the signature pages hereof and on or prior to the date on which it becomes a Lender in the case of each other Lender, and from time to time thereafter if requested in writing by Borrower or Administrative Agent (but only so long as such Lender remains lawfully able to do so), shall provide Borrower and Administrative Agent with (i) if such Lender is a "bank" within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, IRS Form W-8ECI or W-8BEN, as appropriate, or any successor form prescribed by the IRS, certifying that such Lender is entitled to benefits under an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party which reduces the rate of withholding tax on payments of interest or certifying that the income receivable pursuant to the Loan Documents is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States, or (ii) if such Lender is not a "bank" within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code and intends to claim an exemption from United States withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments of "portfolio interest," IRS Form W-8, or any successor form prescribed by the IRS, and a certificate representing that such Lender is not a bank for purposes of Section 881(c) of the Code, is not a ten-percent shareholder (within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code) of Borrower, and is not a controlled foreign corporation related to Borrower (within the meaning of Section 864(d)(4) of the Code). Thereafter and from time to time, each such Person shall (a) promptly submit to Administrative Agent such additional duly completed and signed copies of one of such forms (or such successor forms as shall be adopted from time to time by the relevant United States taxing authorities) as may then be available under then current United States laws and regulations to

58 avoid, or such evidence as is satisfactory to Borrower and Administrative Agent of any available exemption from or reduction of, United States withholding taxes in respect of all payments to be made to such Person by Borrower pursuant to this Agreement, (b) promptly notify Administrative Agent of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption or reduction, and (c) take such steps as shall not be materially disadvantageous to it, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, and as may be reasonably necessary (including the re-designation of its Lending Office) to avoid any requirement of applicable Laws that a Co-Borrower make any deduction or withholding for taxes from amounts payable to such Person. If such Person fails to deliver the above forms or other documentation, then Administrative Agent may withhold from any interest payment to such Person an amount equivalent to the applicable withholding tax imposed by Sections 1441 and 1442 of the Code, without reduction. If any Governmental Authority asserts that Administrative Agent did not properly withhold any tax or other amount from payments made in respect of such Person, such Person shall indemnify Administrative Agent therefor, including all penalties and interest, any taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on the amounts payable to the Agent under this Section, and costs and expenses (including Attorney Costs) of Administrative Agent. The obligation of Lenders under this Section shall survive the payment of all Obligations and the resignation of Administrative Agent. 10.21 Removal and Replacement of Lenders. (a) Under any circumstances set forth in this Agreement providing that Borrower shall have the right to remove or replace a Lender (other than with respect to any outstanding Competitive Loan held by it) as a party to this Agreement, Borrower may, upon notice to such Lender and Administrative Agent, remove such Lender by (i) non ratably terminating such Lender's Revolving Commitment and/or (ii) causing such Lender to assign its Revolving Commitment pursuant to Section 10.04(b) to one or more other Lenders or eligible assignees procured by Borrower. Each Co-Borrower shall, in the case of a termination of such Lender's Revolving Commitment pursuant to clause (i) preceding, (x) pay in full all principal, interest, fees and other amounts owing to such Lender (other than with respect to any outstanding Competitive Loan held by it) through the date of termination (including any amounts payable pursuant to Section 3), (y) provide appropriate assurances and indemnities (which may include letters of credit) to such Lender and Issuing Lender as each may reasonably require with respect to any continuing risk participation interest in any Letters of Credit then outstanding and (z) release such Lender from its obligations under the Loan Documents from and after the date of termination. Each Co-Borrower shall, in the case of an assignment pursuant to clause (ii) preceding, cause to be paid the assignment fee payable to Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 10.04(c). Any such Lender whose Revolving Commitment is being assigned shall execute and deliver an Assignment and Acceptance covering such Lender's Revolving Commitment. Administrative Agent shall distribute an amended Schedule 2.01, which shall be deemed incorporated into this Agreement, to reflect adjustments to Lenders and their Revolving Commitments. (b) This section shall supercede any provisions in Section 10.01 to the contrary. 10.22 Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction; Waivers. (a) THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. (b) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably and unconditionally: (i) 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

59 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; (ii) 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; (iii) 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 provided for in Section 10.02; (iv) 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 (v) 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. 10.23 Waiver of Right to Trial by Jury. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING UNDER ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO OR ANY OF THEM WITH RESPECT TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED THERETO, IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER FOUNDED IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE; AND EACH PARTY HEREBY AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY, AND THAT ANY PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS SECTION WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE SIGNATORIES HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.

                     INSURANCE PREMIUM TERMINATION AGREEMENT

         This is an Insurance Premium Termination Agreement ("Agreement") by and
between Comcast Corporation ("Comcast") and Ralph J. Roberts (the "Employee"),
effective as of January 30, 2004.

         WHEREAS, Comcast and the Employee are parties to a Compensation
Agreement in effect as of the date hereof, which requires that Comcast continue
to provide and to maintain the split-dollar life insurance provided to the
Employee under previous agreements, and in addition to provide additional
survivorship split-dollar life insurance to the Employee and his spouse
(collectively "Employee's split-dollar life insurance policies");

         WHEREAS, because of concerns raised by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002
relating to prohibitions on loans to executive officers, as of July 30, 2002,
Comcast ceased to pay that portion of the premiums associated with the
Employee's split-dollar life insurance policies which would have represented
Comcast's investment therein;

         WHEREAS, Comcast has determined that based on reasonable interest and
mortality assumptions, Comcast will save $14,572,551 if it is relieved from its
obligation to pay that portion of the premiums associated with the Employee's
split-dollar life insurance policies which would represent Comcast's investment
therein retroactively to July 30, 2002, and prospectively, as hereinafter
provided;

         WHEREAS, based on the closing price for Class A Common stock of Comcast
Corporation on January 30, 2004, 423,347 shares have a fair market value of
$14,572,551; and

         WHEREAS, Comcast and the Employee wish to terminate Comcast's
contractual obligation to pay that portion of the premiums associated with the
Employee's split-dollar life insurance policies which would represent Comcast's
investment therein, effective as of July 30, 2002, subject to the following
terms and conditions;

         NOW, THEREFORE, intending to be legally bound hereby, and in
consideration of the premises and of the mutual promises contained herein, the
parties hereto agree as follows:

         1. Termination of Comcast Premium Payment Obligation. The Employee
waives and relinquishes his right to enforce Comcast's contractual obligation to
pay that portion of the premiums associated with the Employee's split-dollar
life insurance policies which would have represented Comcast's investment
therein for the period commencing on July 30, 2002 and ending on January 30,
2004, and Comcast's contractual obligation to pay that portion of the premiums
associated with the Employee's split-dollar life insurance policies which would
have represented Comcast's investment therein that Comcast would, but for this
Agreement, become contractually obligated to pay on and after January 30, 2004.

         2. Consideration for Termination of Comcast Premium Payment Obligation.
In exchange for the Employee's waiver of Comcast's contractual obligations as
described in Paragraph 1, pursuant to the Comcast Corporation 2002 Restricted
Stock Plan (as amended and restated, effective January 30, 2004) (the
"Restricted Stock Plan") Comcast grants the Employee

423,347 Restricted Stock Units for the Class A Common Stock of Comcast Corporation in the form of the Restricted Stock Unit Award attached as Exhibit A to this Agreement. 3. Further Assurances. Comcast and the Employee agree to cooperate and execute such other documents, if any, as may be reasonably necessary to effect the transactions described in this agreement. 4. Agreement Not to Affect Employment. This Agreement shall not confer upon the Employee any right to continue in the employment of Comcast or any subsidiary or affiliate of Comcast. 5. Miscellaneous. (a) This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts all of which taken together will constitute one and the same instrument. (b) The validity, performance, construction and effect of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Comcast and the Employee have executed this Agreement as of the date written below. COMCAST CORPORATION BY: /s/ Lawrence S.

                              EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT
                              --------------------

         This EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT is made as of the 1st day of January, 2004,
between COMCAST CORPORATION, a Pennsylvania corporation (together with its
subsidiaries, the "Company"), and STEPHEN B. BURKE ("Employee").

                                   BACKGROUND

         Employee desires to have Employee's employment relationship with the
Company be governed by the terms and conditions of this Agreement, which include
material benefits favorable to the Employee. In return for such favorable
benefits, Employee is agreeing to the terms and conditions contained in this
Agreement which include material obligations on Employee.

                                    AGREEMENT

         Intending to be legally bound, the Company and Employee agree as
follows:

         1. Position and Duties.

                  (a) Employee shall serve and the Company shall employ Employee
in the position set forth on Schedule 1. Employee shall report directly to Brian
L. Roberts, President of the Company, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The duties
of Employee will be those assigned by Brian L. Roberts from time to time
commensurate with Employee's education, skills and experience.

                  (b) Employee shall work full-time and devote Employee's
reasonable best efforts to the business of the Company in a manner which will
further the interests of the Company. Without the prior written consent of the
Company, Employee shall not, directly or indirectly, work for or on behalf of
any person or business, other than the Company. Nothing herein shall restrict
Employee from engaging in non-compensatory civic and charitable activities with
the consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed. The Company shall be entitled to receive and own all of the results and
proceeds of Employee's services hereunder (including, without limitation,
inventions, patent rights, copyrights, trademark rights, literary material and
any other intellectual property) produced or created by Employee during the Term
(as defined in Paragraph 2). Employee will, at the request of the Company,
execute such instruments as the Company may from time to time deem necessary or
desirable to evidence, establish, maintain, protect, enforce and defend its
right or title in or to any such items.

         2. Term. The term of this Agreement (the "Term") shall be from the date
first-above written (the "Commencement Date") through the first to occur of: (i)
the date this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Paragraph 6; or (ii)
December 31, 2008. Notwithstanding the end of the Term, certain provisions of
this Agreement, including, but not limited to, any payments to be made after the
Term and the covenants contained in Paragraph 8, shall be enforceable after the
end of the Term.



3. Compensation. (a) Base Salary. Employee's salary from the Commencement Date through December 31, 2004 shall be at the annual rate set forth on Schedule 1 ("Base Salary"). Base Salary, less normal deductions, shall be paid to Employee in accordance with the Company's regular payroll practices in effect from time to time. Base Salary shall be increased for each subsequent calendar year (or portion thereof) in the Term as set forth on Schedule 1. (b) Cash Bonus/Restricted Stock Grants. Employee shall receive cash bonus/restricted stock grants on the terms set forth in Schedule 1. (c) Withholding. All compensation under this Agreement is subject to applicable tax withholding requirements. (d) Section 162(m). If any part of the total compensation paid to Employee for the Company's taxable year in which such compensation would be paid would not be deductible by the Company for federal income tax purposes by reason of the limitation in Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, the compensation payable in such taxable year shall be paid only to the extent so deductible, assuming that it was the last compensation paid during such taxable year. The balance of the compensation shall be added to an unfunded account maintained on behalf of Employee substantially equivalent to those under the Company's Deferred Compensation Plan, to be paid to Employee in a subsequent tax year as if it were defined in accordance with the terms of the Deferred Compensation Plan and this subparagraph. The application or potential application of such Section 162(m) shall be determined in good faith by the Company based on available information prior to the date on which any compensation would otherwise be paid. The provisions of the subparagraph may be waived from time to time, in whole or in part, with the prior consent of the Company. 4. Other Benefits. Employee shall be entitled to participate in the Company's benefit plans and programs (including deferred compensation, relocation benefits, group insurance programs, vacation benefits and applicable directors and officers liability insurance and indemnification and advancement of expenses provisions relating to claims made by third parties against Employee in Employee's role as an employee, officer or director of the Company), on the same terms and at the same cost to the Company and Employee as the Company's other executives at Employee's level receive from time to time, in accordance with the terms of such plans and programs. Nothing in this Agreement shall limit the Company's right to modify or discontinue any plans or programs at any time, provided no such action may adversely affect any vested rights of Employee thereunder. The provisions of this Paragraph 4 shall not apply to benefits and programs (including, without limitation, salary continuation) addressed in this Agreement, in which case the applicable terms of this Agreement shall apply. 5. Business Expenses. The Company shall pay or reimburse Employee for reasonable travel, entertainment and other expenses incurred by Employee in connection with the performance of Employee's duties upon receipt of vouchers therefor submitted to the Company 2

on a timely basis and in accordance with the Company's regular procedures and practices in effect from time to time. 6. Termination. The Company or Employee may terminate Employee's employment and the Company's obligations or liabilities under this Agreement, excluding any obligations the Company may have under Paragraph 7, in any of the following circumstances: (a) Death of Employee. In the event of Employee's death. (b) Disability. In the event Employee becomes substantially unable to perform Employee's duties hereunder due to partial or total disability or incapacity resulting from a mental or physical illness, injury or other health-related cause ("Disability") for a period of nine (9) consecutive months or for a cumulative period of fifty-two (52) weeks during the term of this Agreement. (c) Discharge With Cause by the Company or Termination by Employee Without Good Reason. (i) The Company may terminate this Agreement in any of the following events ("Discharge With Cause"): Employee's fraud; misappropriation; embezzlement; gross negligence in the performance of Employee's duties; self-dealing; dishonesty; misrepresentation; conviction of a crime of a felony; material violation of any Company policy; material violation of the Company's Code of Ethics and Business Conduct; or material breach of any provision of this Agreement (which, as to the last three items, if capable of being cured, shall remain uncured following thirty (30) days written notice thereof). (ii) Employee may terminate this Agreement without Good Reason (as defined in subparagraph (d)(ii) below) at any time ("Without Good Reason"). (d) Discharge Without Cause by the Company or Termination by Employee With Good Reason. (i) The Company may terminate this Agreement other than on account of a Discharge With Cause at any time ("Discharge Without Cause"). (ii) Employee may terminate this Agreement in any of the following events ("With Good Reason"): assignment to Employee of any duties inconsistent in any material respect with Employee's education, skills and experience or any other action by the Company that results in a substantial diminution in Employee's position and duties; or material breach of any provision of this Agreement (which, as to either such items, if capable of being cured, shall remain uncured following thirty (30) days written notice thereof). 7. Payments Upon Termination. Other than with respect to vested benefits, Employee's sole entitlement in the case of termination shall be as follows: 3

(a) Death or Disability. Upon termination due to death or Disability, Employee (or Employee's estate, as applicable) will be entitled to payment of Employee's then-current Base Salary for the period prior to termination and for the period of three (3) months thereafter, amounts payable on account of death or Disability under any benefit plans and programs, and any accrued but unused vacation time. (b) Discharge With Cause by the Company or Termination by Employee Without Good Reason. If Employee is Discharged With Cause or Employee terminates Without Good Reason, Employee will be entitled to payment of Employee's then-current Base Salary for the period prior to termination. (c) Discharge Without Cause by the Company or Termination by Employee With Good Reason. If Employee is Discharged Without Cause or Employee terminates With Good Reason: (i) Employee shall continue to receive Employee's then-current Base Salary and "health and welfare" benefit plans and programs for the period of time set forth on Schedule 1 from the date of Discharge Without Cause or termination by Employee With Good Reason, in exchange for a release by Employee of the Company with respect to all matters relating to Employee's employment (other than with respect to Employee's rights to vested benefits and under this Agreement). Employee shall also receive any accrued but unused vacation time. (ii) Employee shall have no obligation to obtain employment during the period in which Employee receives post-termination payments from the Company under this subparagraph (c). However, the Company's obligation for Base Salary under subparagraph (i) above shall be offset by any cash compensation from employment earned by Employee with another employer during such period, and its obligation to continue "health and welfare" benefits and programs shall cease upon Employee's eligibility for similar benefits from such other employer. (iii) Employee shall receive that portion of cash bonus/restricted stock grants which would have vested within the period of time set forth on Schedule 1 from the date of Discharge Without Cause, as if there had been no termination of employment. (d) COBRA Rights. Nothing herein shall constitute a waiver by Employee of "COBRA" rights under federal law in connection with termination of employment. 8. Non-Solicitation, Non-Competition and Confidentiality. (a) During the Term and Employee's continued employment by the Company, and for a period of one year after termination of Employee's employment by the company for any reason (whether during or after the Term), Employee shall not, directly or indirectly, solicit, induce, encourage or attempt to influence any customer, employee, consultant, independent 4

contractor, service provider or supplier of the Company to cease to do business or to terminate the employment or other relationship with the Company. (b) (i) WHILE EMPLOYED BY THE COMPANY DURING THE TERM, AND FOR A PERIOD OF ONE YEAR AFTER TERMINATION OF EMPLOYEE'S EMPLOYMENT FOR ANY REASON (OTHER THAN AS A RESULT OF A DISCHARGE WITHOUT CAUSE) PRIOR TO THE EXPIRATION OF THE TERM (BUT NOT FOLLOWING TERMINATION OF EMPLOYEE'S EMPLOYMENT IN THE EVENT EMPLOYEE HAS REMAINED EMPLOYED FOR THE ENTIRE TERM), EMPLOYEE SHALL NOT, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, ENGAGE IN (AS A PRINCIPAL, PARTNER, DIRECTOR, OFFICER, AGENT, EMPLOYEE, CONSULTANT, OWNER, INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR OR OTHERWISE), ANY ACTIVITIES FOR A COMPETITIVE BUSINESS. A "COMPETITIVE BUSINESS" SHALL BE DEFINED AS A BUSINESS (WHETHER CONDUCTED BY AN ENTITY OR INDIVIDUALS, INCLUDING EMPLOYEE IN SELF-EMPLOYMENT) THAT IS ENGAGED IN COMPETITION, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY THROUGH ANY PARENT, SUBSIDIARY, AFFILIATE, JOINT VENTURE, PARTNERSHIP OR OTHERWISE, WITH ANY OF THE BUSINESS ACTIVITIES CARRIED ON BY THE COMPANY (OR BY THE SPECIFIC DIVISION OR ENTITY OF THE COMPANY IN WHICH EMPLOYEE IS EMPLOYED) OR ANY BUSINESS ACTIVITIES BEING PLANNED BY THE COMPANY OR EMPLOYEE'S DIVISION OR ENTITY (WITH EMPLOYEE'S KNOWLEDGE) AT THE TIME OF EMPLOYEE'S TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT. TO APPROPRIATELY TAKE ACCOUNT OF THE COMPETITIVE ENVIRONMENT IN THE CABLE TELEVISION INDUSTRY, THE COMPANY AND EMPLOYEE AGREE THAT BUSINESSES ENGAGED IN THE FOLLOWING ACTIVITIES SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE "COMPETITIVE BUSINESSES" HEREUNDER: THE DISTRIBUTION OF VIDEO PROGRAMMING TO RESIDENTIAL OR COMMERCIAL SUBSCRIBERS BY ANY TECHNOLOGY, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, COAXIAL OR FIBER OPTIC CABLE, DIGITAL SUBSCRIBER LINE OR SMATV, SATELLITE OR WIRELESS DISTRIBUTION SYSTEMS; AS OF THE DATE HEREOF, SUCH BUSINESSES INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING COMPANIES AND THEIR PARENTS, CONTROLLED AFFILIATES AND SUCCESSORS: ADELPHIA COMMUNICATIONS CORPORATION; CHARTER COMMUNICATIONS, INC.; COX COMMUNICATIONS, INC.; DIRECTTV, INC.; ECHOSTAR COMMUNICATIONS CORPORATION; KNOLOGY HOLDINGS, INC.; RCN CORPORATION; TIME WARNER INC.; AND WIDE OPEN WEST. (ii) FOR A PERIOD OF ONE YEAR AFTER TERMINATION OF EMPLOYEE'S EMPLOYMENT FOLLOWING THE EXPIRATION OF THE TERM (IN THE EVENT EMPLOYEE HAS REMAINED EMPLOYED FOR THE ENTIRE TERM), EMPLOYEE SHALL NOT, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, ENGAGE IN (AS A PRINCIPAL, PARTNER, DIRECTOR, OFFICER, AGENT, EMPLOYEE, CONSULTANT, OWNER, INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR OR OTHERWISE), ANY ACTIVITIES FOR ANY OF THE FOLLOWING ENTITIES (OR THEIR SUCCESSORS) THAT IS ENGAGED IN COMPETITION WITH THE COMPANY'S VIDEO PROGRAMMING DISTRIBUTION OR HIGH SPEED DATA BUSINESSES, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY THROUGH ANY PARENT, SUBSIDIARY, AFFILIATE, JOINT VENTURE, PARTNERSHIP OR 5

OTHERWISE: BELLSOUTH CORP.; DIRECTTV,INC., ECHOSTAR COMMUNICATIONS CORPORATION; QWEST COMMUNICATIONS INTERNATIONAL, INC.; SBC COMMUNICATIONS, INC., AND VERIZON COMMUNICATIONS, INC. (iii) THESE RESTRICTIONS SHALL APPLY IN ANY GEOGRAPHICAL AREA OF THE UNITED STATES IN WHICH THE COMPANY CARRIES OUT BUSINESS ACTIVITIES. (iv) As a limited exception to the foregoing, Employee shall not be prohibited from engaging in activities for a Competitive Business if all of the following conditions are met: (A) Employee is engaged to perform activities which are materially inferior as to skill level and scope of responsibility to the skill level and scope of responsibility involved in the Employee's employment hereunder; (B) the activities engaged in by Employee are not directly competitive with the activities engaged in by the Company; (C) Employee provides the Company with at least thirty (30) days written notice prior to commencing performance of activities for the Competitive Business; and (D) Employee provides the Competitive Business with a copy of Paragraph 8 of this Agreement, and the Competitive Business gives the Company written assurance that it will not allow Employee to engage in any activities which would cause Employee to violate this Agreement. (v) Nothing herein shall prevent Employee from owning for investment up to five percent (5%) of any class of equity security of an entity whose securities are traded on a national securities exchange or market. Further, if Employee is an attorney, Employee may engage in the practice of law in accordance with the canons of ethics of the state or states in which Employee is authorized or may be authorized to practice law. (vi) Employee agrees that the lack of any specific geographical limitation herein is reasonable in light of the broad geographical scope of the activities carried out by the Company in the United States. (c) During the Term and at all times thereafter, Employee shall not, directly or indirectly, use for Employee's personal benefit, or disclose to or use for the direct or indirect benefit of anyone other than the Company (except as may be required within the scope of Employee's duties hereunder), any confidential information of the Company which Employee acquires in the course of Employee's employment, which is not otherwise lawfully known by and readily available to the general public. Confidential information includes, but is not limited to: business, marketing and accounting methods; policies, plans, procedures, strategies and techniques; research and development projects and results; software and firmware; trade secrets, know-how, processes and other intellectual property; names and addresses of employees and suppliers; and any data on or relating to past, present and prospective customers, including customer lists. Employee confirms that such information is confidential and constitutes the exclusive property of the Company, and agrees that, immediately upon Employee's termination of employment for any reason (whether during or after the Term), Employee shall deliver to the Company all correspondence, documents, books, records, lists and other materials relating to the Company's business, regardless of the medium in which such materials are maintained; and 6

Employee shall retain no copies in any medium (other than Employee's personal address book, electronic or otherwise), regardless of where or by whom such materials were kept or prepared. Nothing herein shall prevent Employee from complying with a valid subpoena or other legal requirement for disclosure of information; provided that Employee shall notify the Company promptly and in advance of disclosure if Employee believes Employee is under a legal requirement to disclose confidential information. (d) Employee acknowledges that the restrictions contained in this Paragraph 8, in light of the nature of the business in which the Company is engaged and Employee's position with the Company, are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate interests of the Company, and that any violation of these restrictions would result in irreparable injury to the Company. Employee therefore agrees that, in the event of Employee's violation of any of these restrictions, the Company shall be entitled to seek from any court of competent jurisdiction: (i) preliminary and permanent injunctive relief against Employee; (ii) damages from Employee (including the Company's reasonable legal fees and other costs and expenses); and (iii) an equitable accounting of all compensation, commissions, earnings, profits and other benefits to Employee arising from such violation; all of which rights shall be cumulative and in addition to any other rights and remedies to which the Company may be entitled as set forth herein or as a matter of law. (e) Employee agrees that if any portion of the restrictions contained in this Paragraph 8, or the application thereof, is construed to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of such restrictions or the application thereof shall not be affected and the remaining restrictions will have full force and effect without regard to the invalid or unenforceable portions. If any restriction is held to be unenforceable because of the area covered, the duration thereof or the scope thereof, Employee agrees that the court making such determination shall have the power to reduce the area and/or the duration, and/or limit the scope thereof, and the restriction shall then be enforceable in its reduced form. (f) If Employee violates any such restrictions, the period of such violation (from the commencement of any such violation until such time as such violation shall be cured by Employee) shall not count toward or be included in the applicable restrictive period. 9. Representations. (a) Employee represents as follows: (i) Employee has had the opportunity to retain and consult with legal counsel and tax advisors of Employee's choice regarding the terms of this Agreement. (ii) Subject to equitable principles, this Agreement is enforceable against Employee in accordance with its terms. (iii) This Agreement does not conflict with, violate or give rise to any rights of third parties under, any agreement, order, decree or judgment to which Employee is a 7

party or by which Employee is bound. (b) The Company represents that: (i) Subject to equitable principles, this Agreement is enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms. (ii) This Agreement does not conflict with, violate or give rise to any rights to third parties under, any agreement, order, decree or judgment to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound. 10. Acceleration Event. The Company shall give Employee at least ten (10) business days' notice (or, if not practicable, such shorter notice as may be reasonably practicable) prior to the anticipated closing date of a transaction which the Board of Directors of the Company determines to be a change of control of the Company in circumstances where it is appropriate to accelerate the vesting of employee stock options. Upon receipt of such notice, all stock options of Employee shall become immediately exercisable in full, and until the day before such anticipated closing date (or such shorter period as the Company shall reasonably determine and so notify Employee), Employee shall be permitted to exercise all options with respect to up to the entire number of shares of the Company's common stock covered thereby. The Company may in such notice require that upon the close of the period described above during which an option may be so exercised such option shall terminate to the extent that it has not theretofore been exercised. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the event which was the subject of such notice is not closed, options which were exercised shall be deemed not to have been exercised, any consideration received by the Company on account of the exercise price thereof shall be returned, and such options shall be exercisable thereafter (disregarding any acceleration of vesting as provided for above, which shall then be of no effect) to the same extent they would have been exercisable if no such notice had been given. 11. Merger, Etc. (a) If the Company merges with, or transfers all or substantially all of its assets to, or as part of a reorganization, restructuring or other transaction becomes a subsidiary of, another entity, such other entity shall be deemed to be the successor to the Company hereunder, and the term "Company" as used herein shall mean such other entity as is appropriate, and this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect. (b) If the Company transfers part of its assets to another entity owned by the shareholders of the Company (or any substantial portion of them), or distributes stock or other interests in a subsidiary or affiliate of the Company to the shareholders of the Company (or any substantial portion of them), and Employee works for the portion of the Company or the entity so transferred, then such other entity shall be deemed the successor to the Company hereunder, the term "Company" as used herein shall mean such other entity, and this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect. 8

12. Jurisdiction; Governing Law. Litigation concerning this Agreement, if initiated by or on behalf of Employee, shall be brought only in a state or federal court in the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, or, if initiated by the Company, in such jurisdiction or in the jurisdiction in which Employee then resides or works. Employee consents to jurisdiction in the Eastern District of Pennsylvania without regard to Employee's residence or place of business. Employee and the Company irrevocably waive any objection, including any objection to the laying of venue or based on the grounds of forum non conveniens, which it may now or hereafter have to the bringing of any action or proceeding in such jurisdiction. Employee and the Company acknowledge and agree that any service of legal process by mail constitutes proper legal service of process under applicable law in any such action or proceeding. This Agreement shall be interpreted and enforced in accordance with the substantive law of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, without regard to any choice-of-law doctrines. In any litigation concerning this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to reimbursement from the other party for all costs of defending or maintain such action, including reasonable attorneys' fees. 13. Notices. All notices referred to in this Agreement shall be given in writing and shall be effective: (a) if given by facsimile, when transmitted to the telecopy number below and an appropriate facsimile confirmation is received; or (b) if given by registered or certified mail, when received at the following address (with an appropriate receipt received): if to Company to: c/o Comcast Corporation 1500 Market Street Philadelphia, PA 19102 Attention: General Counsel FAX: (215) 981-7794; and if to Employee to: the Employee's address as indicated in the Company's records from time to time. 14. Prior Agreement.
