Amendment No. 1 extends the termination date of the Credit Agreement from October 18, 2013 to October 9, 2014. The Credit Agreement, as amended, continues to provide for a $750 million unsecured revolving credit facility, subject to increase by up to $250 million in accordance with its terms. There are no borrowings currently outstanding under the Credit Agreement.

The applicable margins for borrowings under the Credit Agreement will be based upon the leverage ratio of the Company and range from 1.00% to 1.25% with respect to Eurodollar Rate borrowings and 0% to 0.25% with respect to Base Rate borrowings.
The Credit Agreement, as amended, will continue to require the Company to maintain a leverage ratio of not more than 2.5:1.and an interest coverage ratio of not less than 3.5:1.
