(c) On any Business Day, BTCo may, in its sole discretion, give notice to the Banks that its outstanding Swingline Loans shall be funded with a Borrowing of Revolving Loans (PROVIDED that such notice shall be deemed to have been automatically given upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under Section 10.05 or upon the exercise of any of the remedies provided in the last paragraph of Section 10), in which case a Borrowing of Revolving Loans constituting Base Rate Loans (each such Borrowing, a "Mandatory Borrowing") shall, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, be made on the immediately succeeding Business Day from all Banks (without giving effect to any reductions thereto -3-

pursuant to the last paragraph of Section 10) PRO RATA on the basis of their respective Adjusted Percentages (determined before giving effect to any termination of the Commitments pursuant to the last paragraph of Section 10) and the proceeds thereof shall be applied directly to BTCo to repay BTCo for such outstanding Swingline Loans. Each such Bank hereby irrevocably agrees to make Revolving Loans upon one Business Day's notice pursuant to each Mandatory Borrowing in the amount and in the manner specified in the preceding sentence and on the date specified in writing by BTCo, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, notwithstanding (i) the amount of the Mandatory Borrowing may not comply with the minimum amount for Borrowings otherwise required hereunder, (ii) whether any conditions specified in Section 5 or 6 are then satisfied, (iii) whether a Default or an Event of Default then exists, (iv) the date of such Mandatory Borrowing and (v) any reduction in the Total Commitment or the Adjusted Total Commitment after any such Swingline Loans were made. In the event that any Mandatory Borrowing cannot for any reason be made on the date otherwise required above (including, without limitation, as a result of the commencement of a proceeding of the type referred to in Section 10.05 with respect to the Company), then each such Bank hereby agrees that it shall forthwith purchase (as of the date the Mandatory Borrowing would otherwise have occurred, but adjusted for any payments received from the Company on or after such date and prior to such purchase) from BTCo such participations in the outstanding Swingline Loans as shall be necessary to cause such Banks to share in such Swingline Loans ratably based upon their respective Adjusted Percentages (determined before giving effect to any termination of the Commitments pursuant to the last paragraph of Section 10), PROVIDED that (x) all interest payable on the Swingline Loans shall be for the account of BTCo until the date as of which the respective participation is required to be purchased and, to the extent attributable to the purchased participation, shall be payable to the participant from and after such date and (y) at the time any purchase of participations pursuant to this sentence is actually made, the purchasing Bank shall be required to pay BTCo interest on the principal amount of participation purchased for each day from and including the day upon which the Mandatory Borrowing would otherwise have occurred to but excluding the date of payment for such participation, at the rate otherwise applicable to Revolving Loans maintained as Base Rate Loans hereunder. 1.02 MINIMUM AMOUNT OF EACH BORROWING. The aggregate principal amount of each Borrowing of Revolving Loans shall not be less than $5,000,000 and, if greater, shall be -4-

in an integral multiple of $1,000,000; PROVIDED that Borrowings of Revolving Loans made as Base Rate Loans may be made in integral multiples of $1,000,000. The aggregate principal amount of each Borrowing of Swingline Loans shall be in integral multiples of $1,000,000. More than one Borrowing may occur on the same date, but at no time shall there be outstanding more than ten Borrowings of Eurodollar Rate Loans. 1.03 NOTICE OF BORROWING. (a) Whenever the Company desires to make a Borrowing hereunder (excluding Borrowings of Swingline Loans and Mandatory Borrowings), it shall give the Administrative Agent at its Notice Office at least two Business Days' prior telex, telecopy or telephonic notice (confirmed in writing) of each Base Rate Loan and at least three Business Days' prior telex, telecopy or telephonic notice (confirmed in writing) of each Eurodollar Rate Loan to be made hereunder, PROVIDED that any such notice shall be deemed to have been given on a certain day only if given before 11:00 A.M. (New York time) on such day. Each such notice (each a "Notice of Borrowing"), except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 1.10, shall be irrevocable and shall be given by the Company substantially in the form of Exhibit A, appropriately completed to specify the aggregate principal amount of the Loans to be made pursuant to such Borrowing, the date of such Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), whether the Loans being made pursuant to such Borrowing are to be initially maintained as Base Rate Loans or Eurodollar Rate Loans and, if Eurodollar Rate Loans, the initial Interest Period to be applicable thereto. The Administrative Agent shall promptly, and in any event within one Business Day of receipt of such Notice of Borrowing, give each Bank notice of such proposed Borrowing, of such Bank's proportionate share thereof and of the other matters required by the immediately preceding sentence to be specified in the Notice of Borrowing. (b)(i) Whenever the Company desires to make a Borrowing of Swingline Loans hereunder, it shall give BTCo not later than 10:00 a.m. (New York time) on the date that a Swingline Loan is to be made, written notice or telephonic notice confirmed in writing of each Swingline Loan to be made hereunder. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and specify in each case (A) the date of Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day) and (B) the aggregate principal amount of the Swingline Loans to be made pursuant to such Borrowing. (ii) Without in any way limiting the obligation of the Company to confirm in writing any telephonic notice of such Borrowing of Swingline Loans, BTCo may act without lia- -5-
EX-4.1413th Page of 281TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 13th
bility upon the basis of telephonic notice of such Borrowing believed by BTCo in good faith to be from a President, an Executive Vice President, a Senior Vice President, a Vice President, a Treasurer or an Assistant Treasurer of the Company prior to receipt of written confirmation. In each such case, the Company hereby waives the right to dispute BTCo's record of the terms of such telephonic notice of such Borrowing of Swingline Loans absent manifest error. (iii) Mandatory Borrowings shall be made upon the notice specified in Section 1.01(c), with the Company irrevocably agreeing, by its incurrence of any Swingline Loan, to the making of the Mandatory Borrowings as set forth in Section 1.01(c) to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. 1.04 DISBURSEMENT OF FUNDS. Except as otherwise specifically provided in the immediately succeeding sentence, no later than 12:00 Noon (New York time) on the date specified in each Notice of Borrowing (or (x) in the case of Swingline Loans, no later than 2:00 P.M. (New York time) on the date specified pursuant to Section 1.03(b)(i) or (y) in the case of Mandatory Borrowings, not later than 12:00 Noon (New York time) on the date specified in Section 1.01(c)), each Bank will make available its PRO RATA portion of each such Borrowing requested to be made on such date (or in the case of Swingline Loans, BTCo shall make available the full amount thereof). All such amounts shall be made available in Dollars and in immediately available funds at the Payment Office of the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent will make available to the Company at the Payment Office the aggregate of the amounts so made available by the Banks. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Bank prior to the date of Borrowing that such Bank does not intend to make available to the Administrative Agent such Bank's portion of any Borrowing to be made on such date, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Bank has made such amount available to the Administrative Agent on such date of Borrowing and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Company a corresponding amount. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the Administrative Agent by such Bank, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount on demand from such Bank. If such Bank does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent's demand therefor, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Company and the Company shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover on demand from such Bank or the Company, -6-
EX-4.1414th Page of 281TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 14th
as the case may be, interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to the Company until the date such corresponding amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent, at a rate per annum equal to (i) if recovered from such Bank, the cost to the Administrative Agent of acquiring overnight Federal funds and (ii) if recovered from the Company, the rate of interest applicable to the respective Borrowing, as determined pursuant to Section 1.08. Nothing in this Section 1.04 shall be deemed to relieve any Bank from its obligation to make Loans hereunder or to prejudice any rights which the Company may have against any Bank as a result of any failure by such Bank to make Loans hereunder. 1.05 NOTES. (a) The Company's obligation to pay the principal of, and interest on, the Loans made by each Bank shall be evidenced (i) if Revolving Loans, by a promissory note duly executed and delivered by the Company substantially in the form of Exhibit B-1 with blanks appropriately completed in conformity herewith (each a "Revolving Note" and, collectively, the "Revolving Notes"), and (ii) if Swingline Loans, by a promissory note duly executed and delivered by the Company substantially in the form of Exhibit B-2, with blanks appropriately completed in conformity herewith (the "Swingline Note"). (b) The Revolving Note issued to each Bank shall (i) be executed by the Company, (ii) be payable to the order of such Bank and be dated the Restatement Effective Date, (iii) be in a stated principal amount equal to the Commitment of such Bank and be payable in the principal amount of the Revolving Loans evidenced thereby, (iv) mature on the Final Maturity Date, (v) bear interest as provided in the appropriate clause of Section 1.08 in respect of the Base Rate Loans and Eurodollar Rate Loans, as the case may be, evidenced thereby, (vi) be subject to mandatory repayment as provided in Section 4.02 and (vii) be entitled to the benefits of this Agreement and the Subsidiaries Guaranty and be secured by the Security Documents.

EX-4.1415th Page of 281TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 15th
to the benefits of this Agreement and the Subsidiaries Guaranty and be secured by the Security Documents. (d) Each Bank will note on its internal records the amount of each Loan made by it and each payment in respect thereof and will prior to any transfer of any of its Notes endorse on the reverse side thereof the outstanding principal amount of Loans evidenced thereby. Failure to make any such notation shall not affect the Company's obligations in respect of such Loans. 1.06 CONVERSIONS. The Company shall have the option to convert, on any Business Day occurring on or after the earlier of (1) the 60th day after the Restatement Effective Date and (2) the Syndication Date, all or a portion equal to at least $5,000,000 of the outstanding principal amount of the Loans (other than Swingline Loans, which may not be converted pursuant to this Section 1.06) made pursuant to one or more Borrowings of one or more Types of Loans into a Borrowing of another Type of Loan, PROVIDED that (i) except as otherwise provided in Section 1.10(b) or 4.02(b), Eurodollar Rate Loans may be converted into Loans of another Type only on the last day of an Interest Period applicable to the Loans being converted and no such partial conversion of Eurodollar Rate Loans shall reduce the outstanding principal amount of such Eurodollar Rate Loans made pursuant to a single Borrowing to less than $5,000,000, (ii) Base Rate Loans may only be converted into Eurodollar Rate Loans if no Default or Event of Default is in existence on the date of the conversion, (iii) no conversion pursuant to this Section 1.06 shall result in a greater number of Borrowings of Eurodollar Rate Loans than is permitted under Section 1.02. Each such conversion shall be effected by the Company by giving the Administrative Agent at its Notice Office prior to 11:00 A.M. (New York time) at least three Business Days' prior notice (each a "Notice of Conversion") specifying the Loans to be so converted, the Borrowing(s) pursuant to which such Loans were made and, if to be converted into Eurodollar Rate Loans, the Interest Period to be initially applicable thereto. The Administrative Agent shall give each Bank prompt notice of any such proposed conversion affecting any of its Loans. 1.07 PRO RATA BORROWINGS. All Borrowings of Revolving Loans under this Agreement shall be incurred from the Banks PRO RATA on the basis of their Commitments; PROVIDED that all Borrowings of Revolving Loans made pursuant to a Mandatory Borrowing shall be incurred from the Banks PRO RATA on the basis of their Adjusted Percentages. It is understood that no Bank shall be responsible for any default -8-
EX-4.1416th Page of 281TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 16th
by any other Bank of its obligation to make Loans hereunder and that each Bank shall be obligated to make the Loans provided to be made by it hereunder regardless of the failure of any other Bank to make its Loans hereunder. 1.08 INTEREST. (a) The Company agrees to pay interest in respect of the unpaid principal amount of each Base Rate Loan from the date the proceeds thereof are made available to the Company until the maturity thereof (whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate per annum which shall be equal to the Base Rate in effect from time to time. (b) The Company agrees to pay interest in respect of the unpaid principal amount of each Eurodollar Rate Loan from the date the proceeds thereof are made available to the Company until the maturity thereof (whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate per annum which shall, during each Interest Period applicable thereto, be equal to the sum of the Applicable Margin plus the Quoted Rate for such Interest Period. (c) Overdue principal and, to the extent permitted by law, overdue interest in respect of each Loan and any other overdue amount payable hereunder shall, in each case, bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the greater of (x) 2-1/4% per annum in excess of the Base Rate in effect from time to time and (y) the rate which is 2% in excess of the rate then borne by such Loans, in each case with such interest to be payable on demand. (d) Accrued (and theretofore unpaid) interest shall be payable (i) in respect of each Base Rate Loan, quarterly in arrears on each Quarterly Payment Date, (ii) in respect of each Eurodollar Rate Loan, on the last day of each Interest Period applicable thereto and, in the case of an Interest Period in excess of three months, on each date occurring at three month intervals after the first day of such Interest Period and (iii) in respect of each Loan, on any repayment (on the amount repaid), on any conversion pursuant to Section 1.10(b) or 4.02(b) (on the amount converted), at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) and, after such maturity, on demand. (e) Upon each Interest Determination Date, the Administrative Agent shall determine the Quoted Rate for each Interest Period applicable to Eurodollar Rate Loans and shall promptly notify the Company and the Banks thereof.

1.09 INTEREST PERIODS. At the time it gives any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion in respect of the making of, or conversion into, any Eurodollar Rate Loan (in the case of the initial Interest Period applicable thereto) or on the third Business Day prior to the expiration of an Interest Period applicable to such Eurodollar Rate Loan (in the case of any subsequent Interest Period), the Company shall have the right to elect, by giving the Administrative Agent notice thereof, the interest period (each an "Interest Period") applicable to such Eurodollar Rate Loan, which Interest Period shall, at the option of the Company, be a one, two, three or six month period, PROVIDED that: (i) all Eurodollar Rate Loans comprising a Borrowing shall at all times have the same Interest Period; (ii) the initial Interest Period for any Eurodollar Rate Loan shall commence on the date of Borrowing of such Loan (including the date of any conversion thereto from a Loan of a different Type) and each Interest Period occurring thereafter in respect of such Loan shall commence on the day on which the next preceding Interest Period applicable thereto expires; (iii) if any Interest Period relating to a Eurodollar Rate Loan begins on a day for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar month at the end of such Interest Period, such Interest Period shall end on the last Business Day of such calendar month; (iv) if any Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day which is not a Business Day, such Interest Period shall expire on the next succeeding Business Day; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Rate Loan would otherwise expire on a day which is not a Business Day but is a day of the month after which no further Business Day occurs in such month, such Interest Period shall expire on the next preceding Business Day; (v) no Interest Period may be selected at any time when any Default or Event of Default is then in existence; (vi) no Interest Period shall be selected which extends beyond the Final Maturity Date; (vii) no Interest Period shall extend beyond any date upon which a Scheduled Reduction is to be made if, -10-
EX-4.1418th Page of 281TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 18th
after giving effect to the selection of such Interest Period, the aggregate amount of Revolving Loans maintained as Eurodollar Rate Loans with Interest Periods ending after such date of Scheduled Reduction would exceed the Total Commitment after giving effect to the reduction thereto resulting from such Scheduled Reduction; and (viii) no Interest Period shall be greater than one month for any Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans prior to the earlier of (i) the 60th day following the Restatement Effective Date and (ii) the Syndication Date. If upon the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to a Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans, the Company has failed to elect a new Interest Period to be applicable to such Eurodollar Rate Loans as provided above, the Company shall be deemed to have elected to convert such Eurodollar Rate Loans into Base Rate Loans effective as of the expiration date of such current Interest Period. 1.10 INCREASED COSTS, ILLEGALITY, ETC. (a) In the event that any Bank shall have determined (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto but, with respect to clause (i) below, may be made only by the Administrative Agent): (i) on any Interest Determination Date that, by reason of any changes arising after the Restatement Effective Date affecting the interbank Eurodollar market, adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable interest rate on the basis provided for in the definition of Quoted Rate; or (ii) at any time, that such Bank shall incur increased costs or reductions in the amounts received or receivable hereunder with respect to any Eurodollar Rate Loan because of (x) any change since the Restatement Effective Date in any applicable law or governmental rule, regulation, order, guideline or request (whether or not having the force of law) or in the interpretation or administration thereof and including the introduction of any new law or governmental rule, regulation, order, guideline or request, such as, for example, but not limited to: (A) a change in the basis of taxation of payments to any Bank of the principal of or interest on the Notes or any other amounts payable hereunder (except for changes in the rate of tax on, or determined by -11-

reference to, the net income or profits of such Bank imposed by the jurisdiction in which its principal office or applicable lending office is located) or (B) a change in official reserve requirements (but, in all events, excluding reserves required under Regulation D to the extent included in the computation of the Quoted Rate) and/or (y) other circumstances affecting such Bank or the interbank Eurodollar market or the position of such Bank in such market; or (iii) at any time, that the making or continuance of any Eurodollar Rate Loan has been made (x) unlawful by any law or governmental rule, regulation or order, (y) impossible by compliance by any Bank in good faith with any governmental request (whether or not having force of law) or (z) impracticable as a result of a contingency occurring after the Restatement Effective Date which materially and adversely affects the interbank Eurodollar market; then, and in any such event, such Bank (or the Administrative Agent, in the case of clause (i) above) shall promptly give notice (by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Company and, except in the case of clause (i) above, to the Administrative Agent of such determination (which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the other Banks). Thereafter (x) in the case of clause (i) above, Eurodollar Rate Loans shall no longer be available until such time as the Administrative Agent notifies the Company and the Banks that the circumstances giving rise to such notice by the Administrative Agent no longer exist (which notice the Administrative Agent shall provide promptly after obtaining actual knowledge that such circumstances no longer exist), and any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion given by the Company with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans which have not yet been incurred (including by way of conversion) shall be deemed rescinded by the Company, (y) in the case of clause (ii) above, the Company shall pay to such Bank, upon written demand therefor, such additional amounts (in the form of an increased rate of, or a different method of calculating, interest or otherwise as such Bank in its sole discretion shall determine) as shall be required to compensate such Bank for such increased costs or reductions in amounts received or receivable hereunder (a written notice as to the additional amounts owed to such Bank, showing the basis for the calculation thereof, submitted to the Company by such Bank shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive on and binding on all the parties hereto) and (z) in the case of clause (iii) above, the Company shall take one of the actions spec- -12-

(c) If at any time after the Restatement Effective Date, the introduction of or any change in any applicable law or governmental rule, regulation, order, guideline or request (whether or not having the force of law, and including without limitation changes in those announced or published prior to the Restatement Effective Date) concerning capital adequacy, or in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency, will have the effect of increasing the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Bank or any corporation controlling such Bank based on the existence of such Bank's Commitments hereunder or its obligations hereunder, then the Company shall pay to such Bank, upon its written demand therefor, such additional amounts as shall be required to compensate such Bank or such other corporation for the increased cost to such Bank or such other corporation or the reduction in the rate of return to such Bank or such other corporation as a result of such increase of capital. In determining such additional amounts, each Bank will act reasonably and in good faith and will use averaging and attribution methods which are reasonable, PROVIDED that such Bank's determination of compensation owing under this Section 1.10(c) shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding on all the parties hereto. Each Bank, upon determining that any additional amounts will be payable pursuant to this Section 1.10(c), will give prompt written notice thereof to the Company, which notice shall show the basis for calculation of such additional amounts, although the failure to give any such notice (unless the respective Bank has in- -13-
EX-4.1421st Page of 281TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 21st
tentionally withheld or delayed such notice, in which case the respective Bank shall not be entitled to receive additional amounts pursuant to this Section 1.10(c) for periods occurring prior to the 180th day before the giving of such notice) shall not release or diminish any of the Company's obligations to pay additional amounts pursuant to this Section 1.10(c). 1.11 COMPENSATION. The Company shall compensate each Bank, upon its written request (which request shall set forth the basis for requesting such compensation), for all reasonable losses, expenses and liabilities (including, without limitation, any loss, expense or liability incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds required by such Bank to fund its Eurodollar Rate Loans) which such Bank may sustain: (i) if for any reason (other than a default by such Bank or the Administrative Agent) a Borrowing of, or conversion from or into, Eurodollar Rate Loans does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion (whether or not withdrawn by the Company or deemed withdrawn pursuant to Section 1.10(a)); (ii) if any repayment (including any repayment made pursuant to Section 4.02) or conversion of any of its Eurodollar Rate Loans occurs on a date which is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto; (iii) if any prepayment of any of its Eurodollar Rate Loans is not made on any date specified in a notice of prepayment given by the Company; or (iv) as a consequence of (x) any other default by the Company to repay its Loans when required by the terms of this Agreement or any Note held by such Bank or (y) any election made pursuant to Section 1.10(b). 1.12 REPLACEMENT OF BANKS. (x) If any Bank becomes a Defaulting Bank or otherwise defaults in its obligations to make Loans or fund Unpaid Drawings, (y) upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 1.10(a)(ii) or (iii), Section 1.10(c), Section 2.06 or Section 4.04 with respect to any Bank which results in such Bank charging to the Company increased costs in excess of those being generally charged by the other Banks, or (z) as provided in Section 13.12(b) in the case of certain refusals by a Bank to consent to certain proposed changes, waivers, discharges or terminations with respect to this Agreement which have been approved by the Required Banks, the Company shall have the right, if no Default or Event of Default then exists, to replace such Bank (the "Replaced Bank") with one or more other Eligible Transferees, none of which shall constitute a Defaulting Bank at the time of such replacement (collectively, the "Replacement Bank") reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, PROVIDED that (i) at -14-

the time of any replacement pursuant to this Section 1.12, the Replacement Bank shall enter into one or more Assignment and Assumption Agreements pursuant to Section 13.04(b) (and with all fees payable pursuant to said Section 13.04(b) to be paid by the Replacement Bank) pursuant to which the Replacement Bank shall acquire all of the Commitments and outstanding Loans of, and in each case participations in Letters of Credit by, the Replaced Bank and, in connection therewith, shall pay to (x) the Replaced Bank in respect thereof an amount equal to the sum of (A) an amount equal to the principal of, and all accrued interest on, all outstanding Loans of the Replaced Bank, (B) an amount equal to all Unpaid Drawings that have been funded by (and not reimbursed to) such Replaced Bank, together with all then unpaid interest with respect thereto at such time and (C) an amount equal to all accrued, but theretofore unpaid, Fees owing to the Replaced Bank pursuant to Section 3.01 and (y) BTCo an amount equal to such Replaced Bank's Adjusted Percentage (for this purpose, determined as if the adjustment described in clause (y) of the immediately succeeding sentence had been made with respect to such Replaced Bank) of any Unpaid Drawing (which at such time remains an Unpaid Drawing) to the extent such amount was not theretofore funded by such Replaced Bank, and (ii) all obligations of the Company due and owing to the Replaced Bank at such time (other than those specifically described in clause (i) above in respect of which the assignment purchase price has been, or is concurrently being, paid) shall be paid in full to such Replaced Bank concurrently with such replacement. Upon the execution of the respective Assignment and Assumption Agreements, the payment of amounts referred to in clauses (i) and (ii) above and, if so requested by the Replacement Bank, delivery to the Replacement Bank of the appropriate Note or Notes executed by the Company, (x) the Replacement Bank shall become a Bank hereunder and the Replaced Bank shall cease to constitute a Bank hereunder, except with respect to indemnification provisions under this Agreement, which shall survive as to such Replaced Bank and (y) the Adjusted Percentages of the Banks shall be automatically adjusted at such time to give effect to such replacement (and to give effect to the replacement of a Defaulting Bank with one or more Non-Defaulting Banks). 1.13 CHANGE OF LENDING OFFICE. Each Bank agrees that on the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 1.10(a)(ii) or (iii), Section 1.10(c), Section 2.06 or Section 4.04 with respect to such Bank, it will, if requested by the Company, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Bank) to designate another lending office for any Loans or Letters of -15-

EX-4.1426th Page of 281TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 26th
Credit (or upon the Restatement Effective Date with respect to the Included Letters of Credit), such Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have sold and transferred to each Bank, other than such Issuing Bank (each such Bank, in its capacity as transferee under this Section 2.04, a "Participant"), and each such Participant shall be deemed irrevocably and unconditionally to have purchased and received from such Issuing Bank, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation, to the extent of such Participant's Adjusted Percentage in such Letter of Credit, in each substitute letter of credit, each drawing made thereunder and the obligations of the Company under this Agreement with respect thereto, and any security therefor or guaranty pertaining thereto. Upon any change in the Commitments of the Banks pursuant to Section 1.12 or 13.04 or in the Adjusted Percentages of the Banks as a result of the occurrence of a Bank Default, it is hereby agreed that, with respect to all outstanding Letters of Credit and Unpaid Drawings, there shall be an automatic adjustment to the participations pursuant to this Section 2.04 to reflect the new Adjusted Percentages of the assignor and assignee Bank. (b) In determining whether to pay under any Letter of Credit, no Issuing Bank shall have any obligation relative to the other Banks other than to determine that any documents required to be delivered under such Letter of Credit appear to have been delivered and that they appear to comply on their face with the requirements of such Letter of Credit. Any action taken or omitted to be taken by any Issuing Bank under or in connection with any Letter of Credit if taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall not create for such Issuing Bank any resulting liability to the Company or any Bank. Any reimbursement payment made by the Company shall be without prejudice to, and shall not constitute a waiver of, any right the Company might have or might acquire as a result of any action taken or omitted to be taken by any Issuing Bank under or in connection with any Letter of Credit, although the respective Issuing Bank shall have no liability to the Company except to the extent of its gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection therewith. (c) In the event that any Issuing Bank makes any payment under any Letter of Credit and the Company shall not have reimbursed such amount in full to the respective Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.05(a), the respective Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, which shall promptly notify each Participant of such failure, and each Participant shall promptly and unconditionally pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank the -19-
EX-4.1427th Page of 281TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 27th
amount of such Participant's Adjusted Percentage of such unreimbursed payment in Dollars and in same day funds. If the Administrative Agent so notifies, prior to 11:00 A.M. (New York time) on any Business Day, any Participant required to fund a payment under a Letter of Credit, such Participant shall make available to the Administrative Agent at the Payment Office of the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank in Dollars such Participant's Adjusted Percentage of the amount of such payment on such Business Day in same day funds and the Administrative Agent will make available to such Issuing Bank at the Payment Office the aggregate of the amounts so made available by the Banks. If and to the extent such Participant shall not have so made its Adjusted Percentage of the amount of such payment available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank, such Participant agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank, forthwith on demand such amount, together with interest thereon, for each day from such date until the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank at the overnight Federal Funds rate for the first three days and at the rate otherwise applicable to Revolving Loans maintained as Base Rate Loans for each day thereafter. The failure of any Participant to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank its Adjusted Percentage of any payment under any Letter of Credit shall not relieve any other Participant of its obligation hereunder to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank its Adjusted Percentage of any Letter of Credit on the date required, as specified above, but no Participant shall be responsible for the failure of any other Participant to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank such other Participant's Adjusted Percentage of any such payment. (d) Whenever any Issuing Bank receives a payment of a reimbursement obligation as to which the Administrative Agent has received for the account of such Issuing Bank any payments from the Participants pursuant to clause (c) above, such Issuing Bank shall pay to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to each Participant which has paid its Adjusted Percentage thereof, in Dollars and in same day funds, an amount equal to such Participant's share (based upon the proportionate aggregate amount originally funded by such Participant to the aggregate amount funded by all Participants) of the principal amount of such reimbursement obligation and interest thereon accruing after the purchase of the respective participations. -20-

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Bank (or any Bank together with one or more other Banks) may (x) (A) pledge its Loans and/or Notes hereunder to a Federal Reserve Bank in support of borrowings made by such Bank from such Federal Reserve Bank or (B) assign all or a portion of its Commitments and related outstanding Obligations hereunder to its parent company and/or any affiliate of such Bank which is at least 50% owned by such Bank or its parent company or to one or more other Banks or (y) assign all, or if less than all, a portion equal to at least $5,000,000 in the aggregate for the assigning Bank or assigning Banks of such Commitments and related outstanding Obligations hereunder to one or more Eligible Transferees, each of which assignees shall become a party to this Agreement as a Bank by execution of an Assignment and Assumption Agreement (appropriately completed), PROVIDED that, (i) at such time Schedule I shall be deemed modified to reflect the Commitments of such new Bank and of the existing Banks, (ii) new Notes will be issued to such new Bank and to the assigning Bank upon the request of such new Bank or assigning Bank, such new Notes to be in conformity with the requirements of Section 1.05 to the extent needed to reflect the revised Commitments, PROVIDED, that the Company shall not be obligated to execute any new Note or replacement Note until it has received the original Note or Notes issued by the Company to the assigning Bank or an indemnity with respect to such original Notes, which indemnity shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, (iii) the consent of BTCo shall be required in connection with any assignment, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, (iv) the consent of the Company shall be required in connection with any assignment, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld and (v) the Administrative Agent shall receive at the time of each such assignment (but not in connection with any pledge to a Federal Reserve Bank), from the assigning Bank, the payment of a non-refundable assignment fee of $3,500, provided that in the case of an assignment by a Bank to another Bank, -139-
EX-4.14147th Page of 281TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 147th
such assignment fee shall be $1,500. To the extent of any assignment pursuant to this Section 13.04(b), the assigning Bank shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder with respect to its assigned Commitments. After receipt of notice of any assignment pursuant to this Section 13.04(b) the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Company. To the extent that at the time of any assignment pursuant to this Section 13.04(b) to a Person not already a Bank hereunder, if the Person purchasing such assignment (the "Assignee") would be entitled to charge the Company for increased costs under Section 1.10, or for the reimbursement of Taxes pursuant to Section 4.04, in either case in excess of the aggregate such amounts permitted to be charged by the assigning Bank immediately prior to such assignment (which differences may arise because of differences between the Assignee and the assigning Bank, or because of the different laws, treaties or regulations, or interpretations thereof, applicable to such Persons), the Company shall not be obligated to pay such excess increased costs or Taxes, it being understood and agreed, however, that the Company shall be obligated to pay to such Assignee all other increased costs or Taxes which are otherwise required to be reimbursed pursuant to said Sections 1.10 and 4.04 (including, without limitation, all such increased costs or Taxes payable as a result of events occurring after the date of the respective assignment). At the time of each assignment pursuant to this Section 13.04(b) to a Person which is not already a Bank hereunder and which is not a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) for Federal income tax purposes, the respective Assignee shall, to the extent legally entitled to do so, provide to the Company (x) in the case of a Bank described in clause (i) or (ii) of Section 4.04(b), the forms described in such clause (i) or (ii), as the case may be, and (y) in the case of a Bank described in clause (iii) of Section 4.04(b), the forms described in such clause (iii). 13.05 NO WAIVER; REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. No failure or delay on the part of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Co-Agent or any Bank or any holder of any Note in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document and no course of dealing between the Company or any other Credit Party and any of the Agents or any Bank or the holder of any Note shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder. The rights, powers and remedies herein or in any other Credit Document expressly provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, powers or remedies which the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Co-Agents or any Bank or the holder of -140-
EX-4.14148th Page of 281TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 148th
any Note would otherwise have. No notice to or demand on any Party in any case shall entitle any Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Co-Agent or any Bank or the holder of any Note to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand. 13.06 PAYMENTS PRO RATA. (a) The Administrative Agent agrees that promptly after its receipt of each payment from or on behalf of the Company in respect of any Obligations hereunder, it shall distribute such payment to the Banks PRO RATA based upon their respective shares, if any, of the Obligations with respect to which such payment was received. (b) Each of the Banks agrees that, if it should receive any amount hereunder (whether by voluntary payment, by realization upon security, by the exercise of the right of setoff or banker's lien, by counterclaim or cross action, by the enforcement of any right under the Credit Documents, or otherwise), which is applicable to the payment of the principal of, or interest on, the Loans, Unpaid Drawings or regularly accruing Fees, of a sum which with respect to the related sum or sums received by other Banks is in a greater proportion than the total of such Obligation then owed and due to such Bank bears to the total of such Obligation then owed and due to all of the Banks immediately prior to such receipt, then such Bank receiving such excess payment shall purchase for cash without recourse or warranty from the other Banks an interest in the Obligations of the respective Party to such Banks in such amount as shall result in a proportional participation by all the Banks in such amount; PROVIDED that if all or any portion of such excess amount is thereafter recovered from such Bank, such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the provisions the preceding Sections 13.06(a) and (b) shall be subject to the express provisions of this Agreement which require, or permit, differing payments to be made to Non-Defaulting Banks as opposed to Defaulting Banks. 13.07 CALCULATIONS; COMPUTATIONS. (a) The financial statements to be furnished to the Banks pursuant hereto shall be made and prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States consistently applied throughout the periods involved (except, in the case of the generally accepted accounting principles, as set forth in the notes thereto or as otherwise disclosed in writing by the Company to the Banks); PROVIDED that, except as otherwise specifi- -141-

cally provided herein, all computations determining compliance with Sections 9.03, 9.07, 9.08, 9.09 and 9.10 shall utilize accounting principles and policies in conformity with those used to prepare the historical financial statements delivered to the Banks pursuant to Section 7.05(a) (except that "push down" accounting will not be utilized). (b) All computations of (x) interest in respect of Eurodollar Rate Loans hereunder shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest is payable and (y) interest in respect of Base Rate Loans and Fees hereunder shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest or Fees are payable. (c) To the extent that the determination of compliance with any of the covenants contained in this Agreement requires the conversion into U.S. Dollars of a currency other than U.S. Dollars, then such conversion shall be made based upon the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of the amount of such other currency as determined on the date of each new incurrence, creation, sale, transfer, disposition, expenditure or other similar event (each an "incurrence"), as the case may be, pursuant to the respective covenant (with all such items theretofore incurred to be recalculated based upon such conversion rate), PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that at no time shall there exist a violation of any such covenant, based on prior incurrences, solely as a result in changes in conversion rates (although said changes in conversion rates shall affect the availability of basket amounts for incurrences on the date of each such recalculation). 13.08 GOVERNING LAW; SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION; VENUE; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.

(a) This Agreement shall become effective on the date (the "Restatement Effective Date") and at the time on which (i) each of the Company, the Required Banks (determined immediately prior to the occurrence of the Restatement Effective Date and -143-
EX-4.14151st Page of 281TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 151st
without giving effect thereto), each Continuing Bank and each New Bank shall have signed a counterpart hereof (whether the same or different counterparts) and shall have delivered (including by way of facsimile device) the same to the Administrative Agent at its Notice Office and (ii) the conditions contained in Sections 5, 6 and 13.10(b) are met to the satisfaction of the Administrative Agent and the Required Banks (determined immediately after the occurrence of the Restatement Effective Date). Unless the Administrative Agent has received actual notice from any Bank that the conditions contained in Sections 5 and 6 have not been met to its satisfaction, upon the satisfaction of the condition described in clause (i) of the immediately preceding sentence and upon the Administrative Agent's good faith determination that the conditions described in clause (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence have been met, then the Restatement Effective Date shall have been deemed to have occurred, regardless of any subsequent determination that one or more of the conditions thereto had not been met (although the occurrence of the Restatement Effective Date shall not release the Company from any liability for failure to satisfy one or more of the applicable conditions contained in Section 5 or 6). The Administrative Agent will give the Company and each Bank prompt written notice of the occurrence of the Restatement Effective Date. (b) On the Restatement Effective Date, each New Bank and Continuing Bank shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Company an amount equal to (i) in the case of each New Bank, the Revolving Loans to be made by such New Bank on the Restatement Effective Date and (ii) in the case of each Continuing Bank, the amount by which the Revolving Loans to be made and/or converted by such Continuing Bank on the Restatement Effective Date exceed the amount of the Original Loans of such Continuing Bank outstanding on the Restatement Effective Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 13.10(b), in satisfying the foregoing condition, unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Bank prior to the occurrence of the Restatement Effective Date that such Bank does not intend to make available to the Administrative Agent such Bank's Revolving Loans required to be made by it on such date, then the Administrative Agent may, in reliance on such assumption, make available to the Company the corresponding amounts in accordance with the provisions of Section 1.04 of this Agreement, and the making available by the Administrative Agent of such amounts shall satisfy the condition contained in this Section 13.10(b). 13.11 HEADINGS DESCRIPTIVE.

inclusive, of this Section 13.12, the consent of the Required Banks is obtained but the consent of one or more of such other Banks whose consent is required is not obtained, then the Company shall have the right to replace each such non-consenting Bank or Banks (so long as all non-consenting Banks are so replaced) with one or more Replacement Banks pursuant to Section 1.12 so long as at the time of such replacement, each such Replacement Bank consents to the proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination, PROVIDED that the Company shall not have the right to replace a Bank solely as a result of the exercise of such Bank's rights (and the withholding of any required consent by such Bank) pursuant to the second proviso to Section 13.12(a). (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above in this Section 13.12, the Collateral Agent may enter into amendments to the Subsidiaries Guaranty and the Security Documents for the purpose of adding additional Subsidiaries of the Company (or other Credit Parties) as parties thereto. 13.13 SURVIVAL. All indemnities set forth herein including, without limitation, in Sections 1.10, 1.11, 2.05, 2.06, 4.04, 12.06 and 13.01 shall survive the execution, delivery and termination of this Agreement and the Notes and the making and repayment of the Loans. Notwithstanding the occurrence of the Restatement Effective Date, all indemnities set forth in the Original Credit Agreement for the benefit of the Existing Banks and the Existing Agents shall survive in accordance with the terms thereof. 13.14 DOMICILE OF LOANS. Each Bank may transfer and carry its Loans at, to or for the account of any office, Subsidiary or Affiliate of such Bank. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, to the extent that a transfer of Loans pursuant to this Section 13.14 will at the time of such transfer, result in increased costs under Section 1.10, 1.11, 2.05, 2.06 or 4.04 from those being charged by the respective Bank prior to such transfer, then the Company shall not be obligated to pay such increased costs (although the Company shall be obligated to pay any other increased costs of the type described above resulting from changes after the date of the respective transfer). 13.15 CONFIDENTIALITY. (a) Each Bank agrees that it will not disclose without the prior consent of the Company (other than to its employees, auditors or counsel or to another Bank if the Bank or such Bank's holding or parent company in its sole discretion determines that any such party should have access to such information) any information with respect to the -146-
EX-4.14154th Page of 281TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 154th
Company or any of its Subsidiaries which is furnished pursuant to this Agreement and which is designated by the Company to the Banks in writing as confidential, PROVIDED that any Bank may disclose any such information (a) as has become generally available to the public, (b) as may be required or appropriate in any report, statement or testimony submitted to any municipal, state or Federal regulatory body having or claiming to have jurisdiction over such Bank or to the Federal Reserve Board or the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or similar organizations (whether in the United States or elsewhere) or their successors, (c) as may be required or appropriate in response to any summons or subpoena or in connection with any litigation (provided that unless specifically prohibited by applicable law or court order, each Bank shall notify the Company of any such request for disclosure prior to disclosure of such information), (d) in order to comply with any law, order, regulation or ruling applicable to such Bank, and (e) to any prospective or actual transferee or participant in connection with any contemplated transfer or participation of any of the Notes or Commitments or an interest therein by such Bank, PROVIDED that such prospective transferee or participant executes an agreement with such Bank containing provisions substantially identical to those contained in this Section 13.15. (b) The Company hereby acknowledges and agrees that each Bank may share with any of its affiliates any information related to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (including, without limitation, any non-public customer information regarding the creditworthiness of the Company and its Subsidiaries), provided such Persons shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 13.15 to the same extent as such Bank. 13.16 POST-CLOSING ACTIONS. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or the Security Documents, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the financing statements, Mortgage Amendments and other documents required to be filed pursuant to Sections 5.09 and 5.10 (excluding those that were required to be filed prior to the Restatement Effective Date), if any, shall be presented to the Collateral Agent on the Restatement Effective Date and shall be duly filed within eight days thereafter, it being understood and agreed that the Collateral Agent need not have received original acknowledgement copies of such statements, Mortgage Amendments or other documents within such eight day period. (b) The representations and warranties with respect to the due filing of such financing statements and Mortgage Amendments (excluding those that were required to be filed prior -147-
EX-4.14155th Page of 281TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 155th
to the Restatement Effective Date) and the perfection and priority of the security interests under the Security Documents insofar as they relate to such additional financing statements and Mortgages, as amended by the Mortgage Amendments, only, and any defaults arising therefrom shall be waived for such eight day period. In addition, to the extent inaccurate as a result of the failure to complete the actions described in Section 8.15(f), except with respect to Canadian Subsidiaries (which actions, if any are required, must be completed on or before the Restatement Effective Date), prior to the 45th day occurring after the Restatement Effective Date, the representations and warranties with respect to the security interests granted by the Company and its Subsidiaries in the stock of the respective Foreign Subsidiaries and any defaults arising as a result thereof shall be waived for such 45-day period. (c) Within 45 days after the Restatement Effective Date, the Company shall have delivered to the Collateral Agent fully executed counterparts of Additional Mortgages in each case in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, which Additional Mortgages shall cover such of the Real Property owned by the Company in Chandler, Arizona and Greenville (Hodges), South Carolina, together with evidence that counterparts of the Additional Mortgages have been delivered to the title insurance company insuring the Lien of the Additional Mortgages for recording in all places to the extent necessary or desirable, in the judgment of the Collateral Agent, effectively to create a valid and enforceable first priority lien on each such Mortgaged Property in favor of the Collateral Agent (or such other trustee as may be required or desired under local law) for the benefit of the Secured Creditors.

13.17 SECURITY AGREEMENT COLLATERAL; EXCHANGE OF INTERCOMPANY NOTES. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or the Security Agreements, the parties hereto agree that, to the extent that the representations, warranties and covenants contained herein or in the Security Agreements with respect to Security Agreement Collateral are at any time incorrect (in the case of representations or warranties) or not complied with (in the case of covenants), then in each case so long as the aggregate fair market value of all Security Agreement Collateral under the Security Agreements with respect to which such representations or warranties are incorrect, or covenants are not complied with, does not exceed $10,000,000 (a) the existence of such circumstances shall be deemed not to give rise to a material misrepresentation (with the effect being that Credit Events may still occur, so long as all other applicable conditions are satisfied, pursuant to Section 6.01(ii) and no Event of Default shall exist as a result thereof pursuant to Section 10.02), and (b) no Default or Event of Default shall arise as a result of such covenant violations pursuant to Section 10.07. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above, the Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, use its good faith efforts to provide correct information with respect to all Security Agreement Collateral, and to comply with the covenants relating thereto (in each case without regard to the matters described in the preceding sentence). (b) The Company acknowledges and agrees that the reference to "Section 8.12 of the Credit Agreement" and "Section 8.18(c) of the Credit Agreement" contained in the second to last and last sentence, respectively, of Paragraph 2 of the Company Pledge Agreement shall be deemed hereafter to be references to "Section 8.11 of the Credit Agreement" and "Section 8.15 of the Credit Agreement", respectively. (c) The Collateral Agent shall be permitted to release any promissory notes evidencing intercompany loans pledged in favor of the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Company Pledge Agreement or the Subsidiaries Pledge Agreement, as the case may be, prior to the Restatement Effective Date (collectively, the "Original Intercompany Notes") upon the receipt and pledge of new promissory notes evidencing intercompany loans in substitution for such Original Intercompany Notes and in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 13.18 INTEREST. (a) It is the intention of the parties hereto that each Bank shall conform strictly to usury laws applicable to it. Accordingly, the parties hereto stipulate and agree that none of the terms and provisions contained -149-
EX-4.14157th Page of 281TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 157th
in the Notes, this Agreement, or any of the other Credit Documents shall ever be construed to create a contract to pay to any Bank for the use, forbearance, or retention of money at a rate in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to such Bank, and that for purposes hereof, "interest" shall include the aggregate of all charges or other consideration which constitute interest under applicable law and are contracted for, taken, reserved, charged, or received under any of this Agreement, the Notes, or the other Credit Documents or otherwise in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Further, if the transactions contemplated hereby would be usurious as to any Bank under laws applicable to it, then, in that event, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Notes, this Agreement or in any other Credit Document or agreement entered into in connection with or as security for the Notes, it is agreed as follows: the aggregate of all consideration which constitutes interest under law applicable to each such Bank that is contracted for, taken, reserved, charged, or received by such Bank under the Notes, this Agreement, or under any of the other aforesaid Credit Documents or agreements or otherwise in connection with the Notes shall under no circumstances exceed the maximum amount allowed by the law applicable to such Bank, and any excess shall be credited by such Bank on the principal amount of the Indebtedness of the Company owed to such Bank (or, if the principal amount of such Indebtedness shall have been paid in full, to the extent such interest has been received by a Bank it shall be refunded by such Bank to the Company). The provisions of this Section 13.18(a) shall control over all other provisions of this Agreement, the Notes, and the other Credit Documents which may be in apparent conflict herewith. The parties further stipulate and agree that, without limitation on the foregoing, all calculations of the rate or amount of interest contracted for, taken, reserved, charged or received under any of this Agreement, the Notes, and the other Credit Documents which are made for the purpose of determining whether such rate or amount exceed the Highest Lawful Rate shall be made, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by amortizing, prorating, allocating, and spreading during the period of the full stated term of the Indebtedness, and if longer and if permitted by applicable law, until payment in full, all interest at any time so contracted for, taken, reserved, charged, or received. (b) If at any time the effective rate of interest which would otherwise apply to any Indebtedness hereunder or evidenced by any Bank's Notes would exceed the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to such Bank (taking into account the interest rate applicable to such Indebtedness pursuant to the other provisions of this Agreement, plus all additional charges and consideration which have been contracted for, taken, reserved, charged, or received under this Agreement, such Bank's Notes and -150-
EX-4.14158th Page of 281TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 158th
the other Credit Documents, or any of them, and which additional charges or consideration (the "Additional Charges") constitute interest with respect to such Indebtedness), the effective interest rate to apply to such Indebtedness made by such Bank shall be limited to the Highest Lawful Rate, but any subsequent reductions in the interest rate applicable to such Indebtedness owed to such Bank shall not reduce the effective interest rate to apply to such Indebtedness owed to such Bank below the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to such Bank until the total amount of interest accrued on such Indebtedness equals the amount of interest which would have accrued if the interest rate from time to time applicable to such Indebtedness owed to such Bank had at all times been in effect with respect to such Indebtedness pursuant to the other provisions of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents and if the Banks had collected all Additional Charges called for under this Agreement, the Notes, and the other Credit Documents. If at maturity or final payment of such Bank's Obligations the total amount of interest paid to any Bank hereunder and under the other Credit Documents (including amounts designated as "interest" plus any Additional Charges which constitute interest with respect to such Bank, and taking into account the limitations of the first sentence of this Section 13.18(b)) is less than the total amount of such "interest" which would have been paid if all amounts were paid as required by this Agreement (without giving effect to this Section 13.18) and the other Credit Documents (the amount of the difference described above, the "Deficiency"), then the Company agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by the laws applicable to such Bank, to pay to such Bank an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the difference between (1) the amount of such "interest" which would have accrued on such Bank's Notes if the Highest Lawful Rate had at all times been in effect, and (2) the amount of interest actually paid on such Bank's Notes (including amounts designated as "interest" plus any Additional Charges which constitute interest with respect to such Bank's Notes) and (ii) the amount of the Deficiency.

13.19 ADDITION OF NEW BANKS; CONVERSION OF ORIGINAL LOANS OF CONTINUING BANKS; TERMINATION OF COMMITMENTS OF NON-CONTINUING BANKS; RESIGNATION OF EXISTING AGENTS. (a) On and as of the occurrence of the Restatement Effective Date in accordance with Section 13.10 hereof, each New Bank shall become a "Bank" under, and for all purposes of, this Agreement and the other Credit Documents. (b) The parties hereto acknowledge that each Existing Bank has been offered the opportunity to participate in the Credit Agreement, after the occurrence of the Restatement Effective Date, as a Continuing Bank thereunder, but that no Existing Bank is obligated to be a Continuing Bank. By their execution and delivery hereof, the Company and the Required Banks (determined immediately before the occurrence of the Restatement Effective Date) consent to the voluntary repayment by the Company of all outstanding Original Loans and other Obligations owing to each Existing Bank which has not elected to become a Continuing Bank (each such Bank, a "Non-Continuing Bank") and to the voluntary termination by the Company of the Revolving Loan Commitment (under, and as defined in, the Original Credit Agreement) of each Non-Continuing Bank, in each case to be effective on, and contemporaneously with the occurrence of, the Restatement Effective Date, in each case in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.19(c). (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Original Credit Agreement or any Credit Document, the Company and each of the Banks hereby agrees that on the Restatement Effective Date, (i) each Bank with a Commitment as set forth on Schedule I (after giving effect to the Restatement Effective Date) shall make or maintain (including by way of conversion) that principal amount of Revolving Loans to the Company as is required by Section 1.01(a), provided that if the Original Loans of any Continuing Bank outstanding on the Restatement Effective Date (immediately before giving effect thereto) exceed the aggregate principal amount of Loans required to be made available by such Bank on such date (after giving effect to the Effective Date), then Original Loans of such Continuing Bank in an amount equal to such excess shall be repaid on the Effective Date to such Continuing Bank and (ii) in the case of each Existing Bank with no Commitment, as the case may be, as set forth on Schedule I (after giving effect to the Restatement Effective Date), all of such Existing Bank's Original Loans outstanding on the Restatement Effective Date shall be repaid in full on such date, together with interest thereon and all accrued Fees (and any other amounts) owing to such Existing Bank, and the Revolving Loan Commitment (under, and as defined in, the Original Credit Agreement) of such Existing Bank, if any, shall be terminated, -152-

effective upon the occurrence of the Restatement Effective Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Original Credit Agreement, this Agreement or any other Credit Document, the parties hereto hereby consent to the repayments and reductions required above, and agree that in the event that any Existing Bank shall fail to execute a counterpart of this Agreement prior to the occurrence of the Restatement Effective Date, such Existing Bank shall be deemed to be a Non-Continuing Bank and, concurrently with the occurrence of the Restatement Effective Date, the Revolving Loan Commitment (under, and as defined in, the Original Credit Agreement) of such Existing Bank, if any, shall be terminated, all Original Loans of such Existing Bank outstanding on the Restatement Effective Date shall be repaid in full, together with interest thereon and all accrued Fees (and any other amounts) owing to such Existing Bank, and concurrently with the occurrence of the Restatement Effective Date, such Existing Bank shall no longer constitute a "Bank" under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, provided that all indemnities of the Credit Parties under the Original Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents (as in effect prior to the Restatement Effective Date) for the benefit of such Existing Bank shall survive in accordance with the terms thereof. (d) In the event of the resignation of any Existing Agent on and as of the Restatement Effective Date, each of the parties to the Credit Agreement hereby waives the delivery of any notice required pursuant to Section 12.10 of the Original Credit Agreement in connection with such resignation. -153-

January 11, 1994 To each of the Co-Agents and the Banks listed on Schedule A hereto and to Bankers Trust Company, as Administrative Agent COLTEC INDUSTRIES INC Ladies and Gentlemen: This opinion is furnished to you pursuant to Section 5.03(i) of the Credit Agreement dated as of March 24, 1992 and amended and restated as of January 11, 1994 (the "CREDIT AGREEMENT") among Coltec Industries Inc, a Pennsylvania corporation (the "COMPANY"), and each of you. Unless otherwise defined herein, terms defined in the Credit Agreement are used herein as therein defined. We have acted as special New York counsel to the Company in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of the Credit Agreement and the Notes executed and delivered by the Company on the date hereof (for purposes of this opinion, the "NOTES"). In that connection, we have examined counterparts of the Credit Agreement and each of the Notes and the other documents furnished by the Company pursuant to Section 5 of the Credit Agreement. In addition, we have examined the originals, or copies certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of such other corporate records of the Company, certificates of officers of the Company and agreements, instruments and other documents as we have deemed necessary as a basis for the opinions expressed below. As to questions of fact material to such opinions, we have, when relevant facts were not independently established by us, relied upon certificates of the Company or of its officers. In our examination of the documents referred to above, we have assumed (a) the due execution and delivery, pursuant to due authorization, of each of the documents referred to above by all parties thereto, (b) the authenticity of all such documents submitted to us as originals and (c) the conformity to originals of all such documents submitted to us as copies. In addition, we have assumed, without independent investigation, that (i) the Company is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in

good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation and has full power and authority to execute, deliver and perform the Credit Agreement and each of the Notes, (ii) the execution, delivery and performance by the Company of the Credit Agreement and each of the Notes do not contravene the certificate of incorporation or bylaws of the Company or violate any law, rule or regulation of the jurisdiction of incorporation of the Company, (iii) no authorization, approval, consent or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any governmental authority or regulatory body of the jurisdiction of incorporation of the Company is required for the due execution, delivery or performance by the Company of the Credit Agreement or any of the Notes or, if any such authorization, approval, consent, action, notice or filing is required therefor, it has been duly obtained or made and is in full force and effect, and (iv) immediately prior to the occurrence of the Restatement Effective Date, the Security Agreements create valid security interests in favor of the Collateral Agent in the Security Agreement Collateral to the extent that Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code (the "UCC") as in effect in the State of New York is applicable to such Security Agreement Collateral and such security interests are perfected to the extent the perfection of such security interests is governed by the UCC as in effect in the State of California or New York. We have relied on the opinions of Anthony J. diBuono, Esq., Executive Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary of the Company, and of Messrs. Reed, Smith, Shaw and McClay, special Pennsylvania counsel to the Company, each dated the date hereof and addressed to you, as to all matters covered thereby to the extent such matters are not covered by the assumptions set forth in clauses (i) through (iii) above. Based upon the foregoing and upon such investigation as we have deemed necessary, we are of the following opinion: 1. The execution, delivery and performance by the Company of the Credit Agreement and the Notes do not (a) violate any law, rule or regulation or (b) result in the breach of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any Liens upon any property or assets of the Company under, (i) the Indenture dated as of December 1, 1985 between the Company and The Bank of New York (as successor to Mellon Bank, N.A.), as trustee, (ii) the Indenture dated as of April 1, 1992 between the Company and United States Trust Company of New York, as trustee, (iii) the Indenture dated as of April 1, 1992 between the Company and Norwest Bank Minnesota, National Association, as trustee, or (iv) the Indenture dated as of October 26, 1992 between the Company and United States Trust Company of New York, as trustee. 2. The Credit Agreement and each of the Notes are the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their respective terms.

3. Upon the execution of the Credit Agreement by the Company, the Required Banks (determined immediately prior to the Restatement Effective Date and without giving effect thereto), each Continuing Bank and each New Bank, all consents needed to effect the Credit Agreement under the terms of the Original Credit Agreement will have been obtained. 4.

Under the UCC as in effect in each of the States of New York and California, the security interests in favor of the Collateral Agent in the Security Agreement Collateral and the perfection thereof would not terminate, and the respective priorities of such security interests would not change, in each case solely as a result of the occurrence of the Restatement Effective Date.

Bank of Ireland Bank of Scotland Banque Francais Exterieur du Commerce Comerica Bank COLTEC INDUSTRIES INC OFFICER'S CERTIFICATE I, Anthony J. diBuono, the Executive Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary of Coltec Industries Inc, a Pennsylvania corporation (the "COMPANY"), understand that Shearman & Sterling, special counsel for the Company, is rendering an opinion to each of the Agents and each of the Banks that, as of January 11, 1994, are party to the Credit Agreement dated as of March 24, 1992 and amended and restated as of January 11, 1994 (the "CREDIT AGREEMENT"; capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein have the meaning set forth therein) among the Company, the lending institutions party thereto, the Co-Agents named therein and Bankers Trust Company, as Administrative Agent, and I further understand that Shearman & Sterling is relying on this Certificate and on the statements made herein in rendering their opinion. With regard to the foregoing, I hereby certify, on behalf of the Company, that: 1. The execution, delivery and performance by the Company of the Credit Agreement and the Notes will not constitute a default under any covenant, restriction or provision with respect to any financial ratio or test, or any contractual provision measured by or referring to the financial condition or results of operations, of the Company or the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, set forth in: (a) the Indenture dated as of December 1, 1985 between the Company and The Bank of New York (as successor to Mellon Bank, N.A.), as trustee;

January 11, 1994 To each of the Co-Agents and Banks party to the Credit Agreement referred to below, and to Bankers Trust Company, as Administrative Agent COLTEC INDUSTRIES INC Ladies and Gentlemen: This opinion is furnished to you pursuant to Section 5.03(i) of the Credit Agreement dated as of March 24, 1992 and amended and restated as of January 11, 1994 (the "CREDIT AGREEMENT") among Coltec Industries Inc, a Pennsylvania corporation (the "COMPANY"), and each of you. Unless otherwise defined herein, terms defined in the Credit Agreement are used herein as therein defined. I am Executive Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary of the Company, and have advised the Company and its Subsidiaries in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of the Credit Agreement and each of the Notes executed and delivered by the Company on the date hereof (for purposes of this opinion, the "NOTES"). In that connection, I have examined:
EX-4.14236th Page of 281TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 236th
(a) copies of the charter and bylaws of each of the Subsidiaries of the Company set forth on Schedule A attached hereto (the "COVERED PARTIES"), in each case as amended through the date hereof; (b) certificates and telegrams from public officials of the state of incorporation of each of the Covered Parties as to the good standing of the Covered Parties in such state; (c) copies of resolutions of the Board of Directors of each of the Covered Parties relating to, among other things, the Acknowledgment and the Mortgage Amendments to which it is a party; (d) counterparts of the Credit Agreement and each of the Notes executed by the Company; (e) the form of the Acknowledgment dated as of January 11, 1994 (the "ACKNOWLEDGMENT") to certain Security Documents to be executed by each of the Covered Parties; (f) the form of the Mortgage Amendments dated as of January 11, 1994 (the "MORTGAGE AMENDMENTS") to the Original Mortgages; and (g) copies of each of the agreements and instruments identified on Schedule B attached hereto (the "MATERIAL AGREEMENTS"). In my examination of the documents referred to above, I have assumed (i) the authenticity of all such documents submitted to me as originals and (ii) the conformity to originals of all such documents submitted to me as copies. Based upon the foregoing and upon such investigation as I have deemed necessary, and subject to the limitations, qualifications, exceptions and assumptions set forth herein, I am of the following opinion: 1. Each Covered Party is a corporation (a) duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation, (b) with the corporate power and authority to execute and deliver the Acknowledgment and the Mortgage Amendments to which it is a party and (c) qualified to do business and in good standing as a foreign corporation under the laws of each jurisdiction set forth opposite such Covered Party's name on Schedule A attached hereto, which are each jurisdiction where in my judgment the ownership, leasing or operation of its property or the conduct of its business requires such qualification, except for jurisdictions in which the failure to be so qualified, in the aggregate, would not have a material adverse effect on the
EX-4.14237th Page of 281TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 237th
business, property, assets, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Company or of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole. 2. The execution, delivery and performance by the Company of the Credit Agreement and each of the Notes, and by each of the Covered Parties of the Acknowledgment and the Mortgage Amendments to which it is a party, do not (a) violate any judgment, order or decree known to me of any government, governmental instrumentality or court having jurisdiction over the Company or any of its properties or (b) result in the breach of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any property or assets of any Credit Party under, any Material Agreements. 3. The execution and delivery by each of the Covered Parties of the Acknowledgment and the Mortgage Amendments to which it is a party will not violate the charter or bylaws of such Covered Party. 4. The execution and delivery by each of the Covered Parties of the Acknowledgment and the Mortgage Amendments to which it is a party have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action. 5. Except as have been obtained or made prior to the Restatement Effective Date and except that revised Forms 441S must be filed with the United States Department of Defense, no authorization, approval, consent or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any governmental authority or regulatory body is required for (a) the due execution, delivery or performance by the Company of the Credit Agreement and each of the Notes or by each of the Covered Parties of the Acknowledgment and the Mortgage Amendments to which it is a party, (b) the legality, validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement, any Note, the Acknowledgment or any Mortgage Amendment or (c) the consummation of the Transaction. 6. To the best of my knowledge, except as disclosed in the Annual Report of the Company for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1992, there is no action, suit, investigation, litigation or proceeding pending or threatened (a) that would be reasonably likely to have a material and adverse effect upon the business, property, assets, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Company or of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, (b) with respect to any material Indebtedness of the Company and its Subsidiaries or (c) that purports to affect the legality, validity or enforceability of any Credit Document or the consummation of the Transaction.

The Company does not have outstanding any securities convertible into or exchangeable for its capital stock or outstanding any rights to subscribe for or to purchase, or any options for the purchase of, or any agreements providing for the issuance (contingent or otherwise) of, or any calls, commitments or claims of any character relating to, its capital stock, except for options to purchase 2,260,000 shares and 66,659 shares available to be issued as of December 31, 1993 under the Stock Option and Incentive Plan. 8. On the date hereof, the corporations listed on Schedule V to the Credit Agreement are the only Subsidiaries of the Company. Schedule V to the Credit Agreement correctly sets forth, as of the date hereof, the percentage ownership (direct or indirect) of the Company in each class of capital stock of each of its Subsidiaries and also identifies the direct owners thereof.

I am a member of the Bar of the State of New York and do not purport to be expert on the laws of any other jurisdiction. To the extent the laws of any other jurisdiction may be relevant to any opinion contained herein, I have, after making such investigation as I have deemed necessary or appropriate, relied solely upon my knowledge of the affairs of the Company acquired in connection with my duties as Executive Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary of the Company and, in the case of paragraphs 1 and 3 above, my review of the documents and certificates set forth in clauses (a), (b) and (c) of the third paragraph hereof. A copy of this opinion may be delivered by any of you to any Eligible Transferee in connection with and at the time of any assignment and delegation by any of you as a Bank to such Eligible Transferee of all or a portion of your Loans and Commitments in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement, and such Eligible Transferee may rely on the opinion expressed above as if this opinion were addressed and delivered to such Eligible Transferee on the date hereof. In addition, Shearman & Sterling may rely upon this opinion in rendering their opinion furnished pursuant to Section 5.03(i) of the Credit Agreement.

EXHIBIT D-1 SHEARMAN & STERLING 599 Lexington Avenue New York, N.Y. 10022-6069 212-848-4000 January 11, 1994 To each of the Co-Agents and the Banks listed on Schedule A hereto and to Bankers Trust Company, as Administrative Agent COLTEC INDUSTRIES INC Ladies and Gentlemen: This opinion is furnished to you pursuant to Section 5.03(i) of the Credit Agreement dated as of March 24, 1992 and amended and restated as of January 11, 1994 (the "CREDIT AGREEMENT") among Coltec Industries Inc, a Pennsylvania corporation (the "COMPANY"), and each of you. Unless otherwise defined herein, terms defined in the Credit Agreement are used herein as therein defined. We have acted as special New York counsel to the Company in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of the Credit Agreement and the Notes executed and delivered by the Company on the date hereof (for purposes of this opinion, the "NOTES"). In that connection, we have examined counterparts of the Credit Agreement and each of the Notes and the other documents furnished by the Company pursuant to Section 5 of the Credit Agreement. In addition, we have examined the originals, or copies certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of such other corporate records of the Company, certificates of officers of the Company and agreements, instruments and other documents as we have deemed necessary as a basis for the opinions ex- pressed below. As to questions of fact material to such opinions, we have, when relevant facts were not independently established by us, relied upon certifi- cates of the Company or of its officers. In our examination of the documents referred to above, we have assumed (a) the due execution and delivery, pursuant to due
EX-4.14249th Page of 281TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 249th
2 authorization, of each of the documents referred to above by all parties thereto, (b) the authenticity of all such documents submitted to us as originals and (c) the conformity to originals of all such documents submitted to us as copies. In addition, we have assumed, without independent investigation, that (i) the Company is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction if its incorporation and has full power and authority to execute, deliver and perform the Credit Agreement and each of the Notes, (ii) the execution, delivery and performance by the Company of the Credit Agreement and each of the Notes do not contravene the certificate of incorporation or bylaws of the Company or violate any law, rule or regulation of the jurisdiction of incorporation of the Company, (iii) no authorization, approval, consent or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any governmental authority or regulatory body of the jurisdiction of incorporation of the Company is required for the due execution, delivery or performance by the Company of the Credit Agreement or any of the Notes or, if any such authoriza- tion, approval, consent, action, notice or filing is required therefor, it has been duly obtained or made and is in full force and effect, and (iv) immediately prior to the occurrence of the Restatement Effective Date, the Security Agree- ments create valid security interests in favor of the Collateral Agent in the Security Agreement Collateral to the extent that Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code (the "UCC") as in effect in the State of New York is applicable to such Security Agreement Collateral and such security interests are perfected to the extent the perfection of such interests is governed by the UCC as in effect in the State of California or New York. We have relied on the opinions of Anthony J. diBuono, Esq., Executive Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary of the Company, and of Messrs. Reed, Smith, Shaw & McClay, special Pennsylvania counsel to the Company, each dated the date hereof and addressed to you, as to all matters covered thereby to the extent such matters are not covered by the assumptions set forth in clauses (i) through (iii) above. Based upon the foregoing and upon such investigation as we have deemed necessary, we are of the following opinion: 1. The execution, delivery and performance by the Company of the Credit Agreement and the Notes do not (a) violate any law, rule or regula- tion or (b) result in the breach of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any Liens upon any property or assets of the Company under, (i) the Indenture dated as of December 1, 1985 between the Company and The Bank of New York (as successor to Mellon Bank, N.A.), as trustee, (ii) the Indenture dated as of April 1, 1992 between the Company and United States Trust Company of New York, as trustee, (iii) the Indenture dated as of April 1, 1992 between the Company and Norwest Bank Minnesota, National Association, as trustee, or
EX-4.14250th Page of 281TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 250th
3 (iv) the Indenture dated as of October 26, 1992 between the Company and United States Trust Company of New York, as trustee. 2. The Credit Agreement and each of the Notes are the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accor- dance with their respective terms. 3. Upon the execution of the Credit Agreement by the Company, the Required Banks (determined immediately prior to the Restatement Effective Date and without giving effect thereto), each Continuing Bank and each New Bank, all consents needed to effect the Credit Agreement under the terms of the Original Credit Agreement will have been obtained. 4. The Company is not an "investment company" within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. 5. Under the UCC as in effect in each of the States of New York and California, the security interests in favor of the Collateral Agent in the Security Agreement Collateral and the perfection thereof would not terminate, and the respective priorities of such security interests would not change, in each case solely as a result of the occurrence of the Restatement Effective Date. Our opinions set forth above are subject to the following qualifica- tions: (a) Our opinion in paragraph 1 above is subject to the qualification that we have not conducted any investigation into the types of businesses and activities in which the Company and its Subsidiaries engage or into the manner in which they conduct their respective businesses and activities as would enable us to render any opinion (and, accordingly, we express no opinion) as to the applicability to the Company of any law, rule or regulation not of general applicability to business corporations. (b) Our opinion in paragraph 2 above is subject to the effect of general principles of equity including, without limitation, concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing (regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). (c) Our opinion in paragraph 2 above is also subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency (including, without limitation, all laws relating to fraudulent transfers), reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally. (d) Our opinion in paragraph 2 above is also subject to the
EX-4.14251st Page of 281TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 251st
4 qualification that we express no opinion as to Section 13.02 and, to the extent they address any of the Security Documents, Sections 13.08(a) and (b) of the Credit Agreement. (e) We express no opinion as to any of the indemnification provisions set forth in the Credit Agreement to the extent they may be violative of public policy. (f) Our opinions set forth above are limited to the law of the State of New York, the federal law of the United States and, solely to the extent set forth in our opinion in paragraph 5 above, the law of the State of California, and we do not express any opinion herein concerning any other law. This opinion is being furnished only to the addresses hereof and is solely for their benefit in connection with the Transaction. This opinion may not be relied upon for any other purpose, or relied upon by any other Person for any purpose, without our prior written consent. Very truly yours,

EXHIBIT D-2 ----------- REED SMITH SHAW & McCLAY 435 Sixth Avenue Pittsburgh, PA 15219-1866 412-288-3131 January 11, 1994 To each of the Co-Agents and Banks party to the Credit Agreement referred to below, and to Bankers Trust Company, as Administrative Agent Re: COLTEC INDUSTRIES INC Ladies and Gentlemen: We have acted as special Pennsylvania counsel to Coltec Industries Inc, a Pennsylvania corporation (the "Company"), in connection with the execu- tion and delivery of the Credit Agreement, dated as of March 24, 1992 and amended and restated as of January 11, 1994 (the "Credit Agreement"), among the Company, the financial institutions party thereto (the "Banks"), the Co-Agents, and Bankers Trust Company, as Administrative Agent, and the transactions contemplated thereby. This opinion is being delivered pursuant to Section 5.03(i) of the Credit Agreement. Unless otherwise indicated, capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Credit Agreement. In connection with this opinion, we have examined and relied upon originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of the following: (a) the Credit Agreement; (b) the form of Notes attached as Exhib- its B-1 and B-2 to the Credit Agreement (the "Notes"); (c) the form of the Mortgage Amendment to be executed by the Company, as Mortgagor, and Bankers Trust Company, as Collateral Agent for the Secured Creditors, as Mortgagee; (d) certified copies of resolutions of the Board of Directors of the Company relat-

2 ing, among other things, to the Credit Agree- ment, the Notes, the Mortgage Amendments to which it is a party and the transactions contemplated thereby; (e) copies of the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation of the Company as certified by the Secretary of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania on September 20, 1993 and the By-Laws of the Company; (f) copies of a subsistence certificate for the Company dated January 7, 1994 from the Secretary of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and a tax lien certificate for the Company dated January 10, 1994 from the Department of Revenue of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. The agreements described in clauses (a) through (c) above are referred to collectively in this opinion as the "Credit Documents". We have reviewed only the Credit Documents and the items listed in clauses (d) through (f) above and have made no other factual investigation or inquiry. We have examined such questions of law as we have deemed appropriate for purposes of rendering the opinions expressed herein. In our examination we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as certified or photo- static copies and the authenticity of the originals of such copies. In making our examination of the Credit Documents to be executed by parties other than the Company, we have assumed the enforceability thereof on all such parties. Based upon the foregoing, and subject to the limitations, qualifica- tions, exceptions and assumptions set forth herein, we are of the opinion that: 1. The Company is a corporation presently subsisting under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. 2. The Company has the corporate power to execute, deliver and perform all of its obligations under each of the Credit Documents and to consummate the Transaction. The execution and delivery by the Company of each of the Credit Documents and the consummation of the Transaction have been duly authorized by requisite corporate action on the part of the Company. The Credit Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Company and the other Credit Documents, when executed and delivered by Paul G. Schoen, the Senior Vice President, Finance and Treasurer of the
EX-4.14255th Page of 281TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 255th
3 Company, will be duly executed and delivered by the Company. 3. The execution and delivery by the Company of each of the Credit Documents, the performance by it of its obligations under each such Credit Document in accordance with its terms, and the consummation of the Transaction do not breach or otherwise violate the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorpo- ration or By-laws of the Company. 4. Neither the execution, delivery and performance by the Company of its obligations under the Credit Documents, nor compliance by the Company with the terms and provisions thereof, nor consummation of the Transaction will violate applicable provisions of Pennsylvania law. 5. No approval from any Pennsylvania governmental body or authority is required to authorize or is required in connection with the execution, delivery or performance by the Company of any Credit Document or the consumma- tion of the Transaction. The foregoing opinions are subject to the following qualifications: A. We have acted as special Pennsylvania counsel to the Company in connection with the Credit Documents and the Transaction. We have not partici- pated in the negotiation or drafting of the Credit Documents or in discussions relating to the Credit Documents or the Transaction. The opinions expressed in Paragraphs 2, 3, 4 and 5 above are limited to our actual knowledge of the Transaction based upon our review of the Credit Documents. We expressly disclaim any knowledge of any agreements, documents or transactions that may be referred to in or incorporated by reference in the Credit Documents or the items listed in clauses (d) through (f) above, other than the Credit Documents, such items and the Transaction. We have not reviewed any exhibits to the Credit Agreement not specifically referenced in the second paragraph of this letter. B. We call your attention to the provisions of Section 911(b) of the Crimes Code in effect in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania which prohibits the use or investment of income derived from a pattern of "racketeering activity" in the establishment or operation of any enterprise. "Racketeering activity," as defined in the Crimes Code, includes the collection of money or other property in full or partial satisfaction of a debt which arose as the result of the lending of money or other property at a rate of interest exceeding 25% per annum where not otherwise authorized by law. Your attention is also called to the provisions of Section 4806.1 of the former Penal Code of the Commonwealth making "criminal usury" -- defined as the charging, taking or receiving of any money, things in action or other property as interest on a loan at a rate exceeding 36% per annum when not otherwise authorized by law -- a felony. It is unclear whether
EX-4.14256th Page of 281TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 256th
4 this provision was repealed by the Crimes Code. SEE 1 Pa.C.S. SECTION 1952; 46 P.S. Section 572 (repealed) and COMMONWEALTH V. FLASHBURG, 237 Pa. Super. 424, 352 A.2d 185 (1976). Accordingly, our opinion is qualified to the extent, if any, that the statutes referenced in this Paragraph B may be applicable to this transaction. Although there is an absence of case law on point, we believe that (i) Section 13.18 of the Credit Agreement, (ii) Section 1510(a) of the Pennsylvania Business Corporation Law (which provides that a Pennsylvania business corporation may not plead usury as a defense to any action brought against it to enforce payment of, or to enforce any other remedy on, any obligation executed or effected by it and (iii) the inapplicability of 41 P.S. Section 101 et seq. (regarding maximum lawful interest rates for loans) to loans in excess of $5,000, all provide strong arguments to the lenders under the Credit Agreement that the foregoing criminal statutes will not be violated by the provisions of the Credit Agreement relating to interest rates. C. With your permission, we have made no investigation and express no opinion as to the applicability to the transactions contemplated by the Credit Documents of the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act as in effect in the Common- wealth of Pennsylvania or Statute 13 Elizabeth Ch. 5, 39 P.S. Chapter 2 App. relating to fraudulent conveyances and related matters. In rendering our opinions herein we express no opinion as to the applicability or effect of any preference or similar law on the Credit Documents or any transaction contemplat- ed thereby. D. Any purported assignment of any governmental approval, license or permit may be subject to restrictions upon assignment or transfer which may be applicable to assignments intended as security, or, although not necessarily applicable to assignments intended as security, may be required to be satisfied before you will be treated as an assignee thereof. E. We express no pinion in Paragraph 4 and 5 above as to statutes and ordinances, administrative decisions, or rules and regulations of counties, towns, municipalities and special political subdivisions (whether created or enabled through legislative action at the federal, state or regional level) or judicial decisions to the extent they deal with any of the foregoing. F. We express no opinion as to the effect on the opinions herein stated of (i) the compliance or noncompliance of any party (other than the Company) to the Credit Documents with any state, federal or other laws or regulations applicable to them or (ii) the legal or regulatory status or the nature of the business of the Co-Agents, the Banks, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent. We do not express any opinion herein concerning any law other than the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.

EXHIBIT I SUBORDINATION PROVISIONS Each promissory note evidencing Indebtedness (as defined in the Credit Agreement to which this Exhibit I is attached) incurred by Coltec Industries Inc, a Pennsylvania corporation (the "Company"), owing to any of its Subsidiaries shall have the following subordination provisions attached as Annex A thereto, and shall include in the text of such promissory note the language: "THE INDEBTEDNESS EVIDENCED BY THIS NOTE IS SUBORDINATE AND JUNIOR IN RIGHT OF PAYMENT TO ALL SENIOR INDEBTEDNESS (AS DEFINED IN ANNEX A HERETO) TO THE EXTENT PROVIDED IN ANNEX A." ANNEX A TO PROMISSORY NOTE Section 1.01. SUBORDINATION OF LIABILITIES. Coltec Industries Inc (the "Company"), for itself, its successors and assigns, covenants and agrees and each holder of the promissory note to which this Annex A is attached (the "Note") by its acceptance thereof likewise covenants and agrees that the payment of the principal of, and interest on, and all other amounts owing in respect of, the Note is hereby expressly subordinated, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth, to the prior payment in full of Senior Indebtedness (as defined in Section 1.07) in cash. The provisions of this Annex A shall constitute a continuing offer to all persons who, in reliance upon such provisions, become holders of, or continue to hold, Senior Indebtedness, and such provisions are made for the benefit of the holders of Senior Indebtedness, and such holders are hereby made obligees hereunder to the same extent as if their names were written herein as such, and they and/or each of them may proceed to enforce such provisions. Section 1.02. COMPANY NOT TO MAKE PAYMENTS WITH RESPECT TO NOTES IN CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES. (a) Upon the maturity of any Senior Indebtedness (including interest thereon or fees or any other amounts owing in respect thereof), whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, all principal thereof and premium, if any, and interest

thereon or fees or any other amounts owing in respect thereof, in each case to the extent due and owing at such time, shall first be paid in full in cash, or such payment duly provided for in cash or in a manner satisfactory to the holder or holders of such Senior Indebtedness, before any payment is made on account of the principal of (including installments thereof), or interest on, or any amount otherwise owing in respect of, the Note. Each holder of the Note hereby agrees that, so long as an Event of Default (as defined below), or event which with notice or lapse of time or both would constitute an Event of Default, in respect of any Senior Indebtedness exists, it will not ask, demand, sue for, or otherwise take, accept or receive, any amounts owing in respect of the Note. As used herein, the term "Event of Default" shall mean any Event of Default, under and as defined in, the relevant documentation governing any Senior Indebtedness which has arisen as a result of the failure to make any payments with respect to Senior Indebtedness or as a result of any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding with respect to the Company, and in any event shall include any payment default with respect to any Senior Indebtedness. (b) In the event that notwithstanding the provisions of the preceding subsection (a) of this Section 1.02, the Company shall make any payment on account of the principal of, or interest on, or amounts otherwise owing in respect of, the Note at a time when payment is not permitted by said subsection (a), such payment shall be held by the holder of the Note, in trust for the benefit of, and shall be paid forthwith over and delivered to, the holders of Senior Indebtedness or their representative or representatives under the agreements pursuant to which the Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, as their respective interests may appear, for application pro rata to the payment of all Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid to the extent necessary to pay all Senior Indebtedness in full in cash in accordance with the terms of such Senior Indebtedness, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to or for the holders of Senior Indebtedness. Without in any way modifying the provisions of this Annex A or affecting the subordination effected hereby, if such notice is not given, the Company shall give the holder of the Note prompt written notice of any maturity of Senior Indebtedness after which such Senior Indebtedness remains unsatisfied. Section 1.03. NOTE SUBORDINATED TO PRIOR PAYMENT OF ALL SENIOR INDEBTEDNESS ON DISSOLUTION, LIQUIDATION OR REORGANIZATION OF COMPANY.
