Morgan Trust Company, National Association, a national banking association incorporated and existing under the laws of the United States of America, as exchange agent (the "Exchange Agent"). BACKGROUND The Issuer is making an offer to exchange, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Issuer's Official Statement for Exchange Offer (the "Official Statement") and the corresponding letter of transmittal (the "Letter of Transmittal") (which together with the Official Statement constitutes the "Exchange Offer"), the Issuer's outstanding 4.95% Senior Notes due 2014 (CUSIP No.88947E AD 2) (the "Outstanding Notes") for its 4.95% Senior Notes due 2014 (CUSIP No. 88947E AE 0) (the "Exchange Notes" and, together with the Outstanding Notes, the "Securities"). The Exchange Offer will commence upon the Issuer's providing written notice of such commencement to the Exchange Agent. The Exchange Offer shall terminate on the date described under the terms set forth in the Official Statement (the "Exchange Offer Expiration Date"), unless the Exchange Offer is extended by the Issuer, notifies the Exchange Agent of such extension by 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the previous Exchange Offer Expiration Date, in which case, the term Exchange Offer Expiration Date shall mean the latest date and time to which the Exchange Offer is extended. In connection therewith, the undersigned parties hereby agree as follows: 1. Appointment and Duties as Exchange Agent. The Issuer hereby authorizes the Exchange Agent, to act as the exchange agent in connection with the Exchange Offer, and the Exchange Agent hereby agrees to act as the exchange agent and to perform the services outlined herein in connection with the Exchange Offer on the terms and conditions contained herein. 2. ATOP Registration. As soon as practicable, the Exchange Agent shall establish an account with The Depository Trust Company ("DTC") in its name to facilitate book-entry tenders of Outstanding Bonds through DTC's Automated Tender Offer Program ("ATOP") for the Exchange Offer. 3. Receipt of Letters of Transmittal and Related Items. From and after the commencement of the Exchange Offer, the Exchange Agent is hereby authorized and directed to accept (a) Letters of Transmittal, duly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto (or a manually signed facsimile thereof), and any requisite collateral documents from holders of the Outstanding Bonds and (b) surrendered Outstanding Notes to which such Letters of Transmittal relate. The Exchange Agent is authorized to request from any person tendering Outstanding Notes such additional documents as the Exchange Agent or the Issuer deems appropriate. The Exchange Agent is hereby authorized and directed to process withdrawals of tenders to the extent withdrawal thereof is authorized by the Exchange Offer. 4. Defective or Deficient Outstanding Bonds and Instruments. A. As soon as practicable after receipt, the Exchange Agent will examine instructions transmitted by DTC ("DTC Transmissions"), Letters of Transmittal and other documents received by the Exchange Agent in connection with the Exchange Offer to ascertain whether (I) Letters of Transmittal are completed and executed in accordance with the instructions set forth therein (or that the DTC Transmissions contain the proper information required to be set forth therein), (ii) that book-entry confirmations are in due and proper form and contain the information required to be set forth therein). B. If any DTC Transmissions are not in due and proper form or omit required information or if some other irregularity in connection with any tender of any Outstanding Notes exists, the Exchange Agent shall promptly report such information to the holder. If such condition is not promptly remedied by the holder of the Outstanding Notes, the Exchange Agent shall report such condition to the Issuer. All questions as to the validity, form, eligibility (including timeliness of receipt), acceptance and withdrawal of any Outstanding Notes tendered shall be determined by the Issuer. C. The Issuer, reserves the absolute right (i) to reject any or all tenders of any particular Outstanding Notes not to be in proper form or the acceptance or exchange of which may, in the opinion of the Issuer's counsel, be unlawful and (ii) to waive any of the conditions of the Exchange Offer or any defect or irregularity in the tender of any particular Outstanding Notes, and the Issuer's interpretation of the terms and conditions of the Exchange Offer ( including the Letter of Transmittal and the instructions set forth therein) will be final and binding. 5. Requirements of Tenders. A. Tenders of Outstanding Notes shall be made only as set forth in the Letter of Transmittal, and shall be considered properly tendered only when tendered in accordance therewith. Notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph, any Outstanding Note that the Issuer's President, Chief Financial Officer or General Counsel (the "Authorized Representatives"), or any other person designated by the Issuer shall approve as having been properly tendered shall be considered to be properly tendered. 6. Exchange of the Outstanding Bonds. A. Promptly after the commencement of the Exchange Offer, the Issuer will deliver the form of the Exchange Notes to the Exchange Agent. Upon the Exchange Offer Expiration Date, the Exchange Agent is hereby directed to deliver or cause to be delivered promptly Exchange Notes to the holders that properly tendered Outstanding Notes in accordance with the terms set forth in the Exchange Offer. 2 B. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, issuance of the Exchange Notes for accepted Outstanding Notes pursuant to the Exchange Offer shall be made only after deposit with the Exchange Agent of the Outstanding Notes, the Letter of Transmittal and any other required documents. 7. Reports to the Company. a) The Exchange Agent shall notify the Company, by facsimile or electronic communication, of the principal amount of the Outstanding Notes which have been duly tendered as requested by the Company until the Exchange Offer Expiration Date. b) The Exchange Agent shall furnish to the Issuer any additional reasonable information with respect to the tender of Outstanding Notes as may be reasonably requested from time to time. 8. Record Keeping. Each Letter of Transmittal or Outstanding Note tendered by book-entry delivery, such form of record keeping of receipt as is customary for tenders through ATOP and any other documents received by the Exchange Agent in connection with the Exchange Offer shall be stamped by the Exchange Agent to show the date of receipt and, if defective, the date and time the last defect was cured or waived by the Issuer, upon the direction of the Issuer. The Exchange Agent shall retain all Outstanding Notes and Letters of Transmittal and other related documents or correspondence received by the Exchange Agent until the Exchange Offer Expiration Date. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, the Exchange Agent shall return all such material to the Issuer or its designee as soon as practicable after the Exchange Offer Expiration Date. 9. Discrepancies or Questions. Any discrepancies or questions regarding any the Exchange Offer or any other documents received by the Exchange Agent in connection with the Exchange Offer shall be referred to the Issuer and the Exchange Agent shall have no further duty with respect to such matter; provided that the Exchange Agent shall cooperate with the Issuer in attempting to resolve such discrepancies or questions. 10. Requests for Information. The Exchange Agent shall take such action as may from time to time be reasonably requested by the Issuer or its counsel (and such other action as the Exchange Agent may reasonably deem appropriate) to furnish copies of the Prospectus, Letter of Transmittal and the Notice of Guarantee Delivery (as defined in the Prospectus) or such other forms as may be approved from time to time by the Issuer, to all persons requesting such documents and to accept and comply with telephone requests for information relating to the Exchange Offer, provided that such information shall relate only to the procedures for accepting (or withdrawing from) the Exchange Offer. The Issuer will furnish the Exchange Agent with copies of such documents at the Exchange Agent's request. All other requests for information relating to the Exchange Offer shall be directed to the Issuer, Attention: Joseph R.

The Exchange Agent shall have no liability under and no duty to inquire as to the provisions of any agreement other than this Agreement. The Exchange Agent shall have no duty to solicit any payments which may be due it.

Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in no event shall the Exchange Agent be liable for special, indirect or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost profits), even if the Exchange Agent has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action. 15. Future Instruction. The Exchange Agent may rely and act on any instructions from the Authorized Representatives with respect to all matters pertaining to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. Any material instructions given to the Exchange Agent orally by any Authorized Representative shall be confirmed in writing by such Authorized Representative as soon as practicable.

Indemnification. A. The Issuer shall indemnify, defend and hold the Exchange Agent and the Issuer and their respective directors, council members, officers, employees and agents (collectively, the "Indemnified Persons") harmless from and against every loss, liability or expense, including without limitation damages, fines, suits, actions, demands, penalties, costs, out-of-pocket or incidental expenses, legal fees and expenses, the allocated costs and expenses of in-house counsel and legal staff and the costs and expenses of defending or preparing to defend against any claim (collectively, "Losses"), that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against, any Indemnified Person for or in respect of the Exchange Agent's (1) execution and delivery of this Agreement, (2) compliance or attempted compliance with or reliance upon any instruction or other direction upon which the Exchange Agent is authorized to rely pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and (3) performance under this Agreement, except to the extent that the Loss resulted from such Indemnified Person's negligence or willful misconduct.
