Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

The information described under Item 2.03 below “Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant” is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 2.03

Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

As more fully summarized below, on February 2, 2007, United Air Lines, Inc. (“United”), a wholly owned subsidiary of UAL Corporation (the “Company”), entered into an amended and restated revolving credit, term loan and guaranty agreement (the “Credit Facility”) that, among other things, results in:

•

a reduction in the overall size of the facility from $3.0 billion to $2.055 billion.

•

a reduction in the applicable interest rates;

•

a more limited collateral package; and

•

a relaxation of certain restrictive covenants.

The Credit Facility was provided by a syndicate of banks and other financial institutions led by J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. and Citicorp Global Markets, Inc., as joint lead arrangers and joint bookrunners, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“JPMCB”) and Citicorp USA, Inc. (“CITI”), as co-administrative agents and co-collateral agents, Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, as syndication agent, and JPMCB, as paying agent. The Credit Facility provides for a total commitment of $2.055 billion, comprised of two separate tranches: (i) a Tranche A consisting of $255 million revolving commitment available for Tranche A loans and standby letters of credit to be issued in the ordinary course of business of United or one of its subsidiary guarantors and (ii) a Tranche B consisting of a term loan commitment of $1.8 billion available at the time of closing. Additional loan commitments of up to $450 million are available upon, among other things, United’s request and demonstration that no default or event of default has occurred and is continuing under the Credit Facility. The Tranche A loans mature on February 1, 2012, and the Tranche B loans mature on February 1, 2014.

Borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest at a floating rate, which can be either a base rate, or at United’s option, a LIBOR rate, plus an applicable margin of 1.0% in the case of Tranche A base rate loans and Tranche B base rate loans, and 2.0% in the case of Tranche A LIBOR loans and Tranche B LIBOR loans. The Tranche B term loan requires regularly scheduled semi-annual payments of principal equal to $9 million. Interest is payable on the last day of the applicable interest period unless the interest period is longer than three months, in which case, interest is payable at three-month intervals and on the last day of the interest period. United may prepay some or all of the Tranche B loans from time to time, at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount prepaid plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of prepayment, but without penalty or premium. The base rate for any day is a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the greater of (a) the weighted average of the rates on overnight Federal funds transactions with members of the Federal Reserve System arranged by Federal funds brokers, as published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York on the next business day plus one half of one percent (0.5%) and (b) the rate of interest in effect for such day as publicly announced from time to time by JPMCB as its “prime rate” in effect at its principal office in New York City. The LIBOR rate for any interest period is the London interbank market rate, adjusted for the statutory reserve rate, determined at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, two business days prior to the commencement of such interest period, for dollar deposits with a maturity comparable to such interest period.

The obligations under the Credit Facility are unconditionally guaranteed by the Company and certain of the direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries of the Company (other than United) (the “Guarantors”) and, on the closing date for the Credit Facility, are secured by a security interest in the following tangible and intangible assets of United and the Guarantors: (1) the Pacific (Narita, China and Hong Kong) and Atlantic (Heathrow) routes (the “Primary Routes”), (2) primary foreign slots, primary domestic slots, certain gate interests in domestic airport terminals and certain supporting route facilities, (3) certain spare engines, (4) certain quick engine change kits, (5) certain owned real property and related fixtures, and (6) certain flight simulators (the “Collateral”). After the closing date, and subject to certain conditions, United and the Guarantors may grant a security interest in the following assets, in substitution for certain Collateral (which may be released from the lien in support of the Credit Facility upon the satisfaction of certain conditions): (a) certain aircraft, (b) certain spare parts, (c) certain ground handling equipment, and (d) accounts receivable.

The Credit Facility contains covenants that will limit the ability of United and the Guarantors to, among other things, incur or guarantee additional indebtedness, create liens, pay dividends on or repurchase stock, make certain types of investments, enter into transactions with affiliates, sell assets or merge with other companies, modify corporate documents or change lines of business. The Credit Facility also requires compliance with the following financial covenants: (i) a minimum ratio of EBITDAR to the sum of cash interest expense, aircraft rent and scheduled debt payments, (ii) a minimum unrestricted cash balance of $750 million, and (iii) a minimum ratio of market value of collateral to the sum of (A) the aggregate outstanding amount of the loans plus (B) the undrawn amount of outstanding letters of credit, (C) the unreimbursed amount of drawings under such letters of credit and (D) the termination value of certain interest rate protection and hedging agreements with the Credit Facility lenders and their affiliates, of 150% at any time, or 200% at any time following the release of Primary Routes having an appraised value in excess of $1 billion (unless the Primary Routes are the only collateral then pledged).

The Company used the borrowings under the original credit facility to refinance certain indebtedness of United and the Guarantors to finance working capital needs and for other general corporate purposes.

The Credit Facility is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.1 and is incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Credit Facility which is filed as Exhibit 4.1 to this Form 8-K.

Item 7.01

Regulation FD Disclosure.

On February 5, 2007, the Company issued a press release announcing the closing of the Credit Facility. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1, is incorporated herein by reference and is hereby filed.

(i) Each Tranche A Lender severally, and not jointly with the other Tranche A Lenders, agrees, upon the terms and subject to the conditions herein set forth, to make revolving credit loans (each a “Tranche A Loan” and collectively, the “Tranche A Loans”) to the Borrower at any time and from time to time during the Availability Period in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed, when added to such Tranche A Lender’s Tranche A Commitment Percentage of its LC Exposure, the Tranche A Commitment of such Lender, which Tranche A Loans may be repaid and reborrowed in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. At no time shall the sum of the then outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Tranche A Loans plus the LC Exposure exceed the Total Tranche A Commitment.

(ii) Each Borrowing of a Tranche A Loan shall be made from the Tranche A Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Tranche A Commitments; provided, however, that the failure of any Tranche A Lender to make any Tranche A Loan shall not in itself relieve the other Tranche A Lenders of their obligations to lend.

(b) Tranche B Term Loan Commitment. (i) Each Tranche B Lender, severally and not jointly with the other Tranche B Lenders, agrees, upon the terms and subject to the conditions herein set forth, to make available to the Borrower a term loan in an aggregate principal amount equal to such Tranche B Lender’s Tranche B Commitment (the “Tranche B Loan”). Upon the satisfaction (or waiver) of the conditions set forth in Section 4.01, each Tranche B Lender shall make its portion of the Tranche B Loan to the Borrower in the amount equal to such Tranche B Lender’s Tranche B Commitment Percentage of $1,800,000,000.

(ii) The Tranche B Loan shall be made by the Tranche B Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Tranche B Commitment; provided, however, that the failure of any Tranche B Lender to make its Tranche B Loan shall not in itself relieve the other Tranche B Lenders of their obligations to lend.

(c) Type of Borrowing. Other than as otherwise provided in Section 2.03(b), each Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of ABR Loans or Eurodollar Loans as the Borrower may request in accordance herewith. Each Lender at its option may make any Eurodollar Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(d) Amount of Borrowing. At the commencement of each Interest Period for any Eurodollar Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is in an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $1,000,000. At the time that each ABR Borrowing is made, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000; provided, that an ABR Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to the entire Unused Total Tranche A Commitment or that is required to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as contemplated by Section 2.02(f). Borrowings of more than one Type may be outstanding at the same time.

(e) Limitation on Interest Period. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Borrower shall not be entitled to request, or to elect to convert or continue, any Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after (i) in the case of any request relating to a Tranche A Loan, the Tranche A Maturity Date and (ii) in the case of a request relating to a Tranche B Loan, the Tranche B Maturity Date.

Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may request the issuance of one or more Letters of Credit for its own account or to support obligations of any Guarantor, in a form reasonably acceptable to the Agents, the Issuing Lender and the Borrower at any time and from time to time during the Availability Period (subject to the provisions of Section 2.02(j) in the case of issuances during the final three (3) calendar months of the Availability Period). In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit application or other agreement submitted by the Borrower to, or entered into by the Borrower with, the Issuing Lender relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. At no time shall a Letter of Credit be issued if the sum of the then outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Tranche A Loans plus the LC Exposure (inclusive of the amount of such proposed Letter of Credit) would exceed the Total Tranche A Commitment.

(b) Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions. To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit), the Borrower shall either provide (i) telephonic notice promptly followed by written notice or (ii) hand deliver or telecopy (or transmit by electronic communication, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the Issuing Lender (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned)) to the Issuing Lender and the Paying Agent (reasonably in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension) a notice requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, and specifying the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (which shall be a Business Day), the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraph (c) of this Section), the amount of such Letter of Credit, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit. If reasonably requested by the Issuing Lender, the Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on the Issuing Lender’s standard form in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit; provided, that to the extent such standard form is

inconsistent with the Loan Documents, the Loan Documents shall control. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if (and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit the Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension the LC Exposure (together with the then outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Tranche A Loans) shall not exceed the Total Tranche A Commitment. No Issuing Lender (other than the Paying Agent or an Affiliate thereof) shall permit any such issuance, renewal, extension or amendment resulting in an increase in the amount of any Letter of Credit to occur without first obtaining written confirmation from either Agent (in consultation with the other Agent) that it is then permitted under this Agreement.

(c) Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the date that is one year following the Tranche A Maturity Date.

(d) Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment, renewal or extension of a Letter of Credit including any amendment increasing the amount thereof) , and without any further action on the part of the Issuing Lender or the Tranche A Lenders, the Issuing Lender hereby grants to each Tranche A Lender, and each Tranche A Lender hereby acquires from the Issuing Lender, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Tranche A Lender’s Tranche A Commitment Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Tranche A Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Paying Agent, for the account of the Issuing Lender, such Tranche A Lender’s Tranche A Commitment Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by the Issuing Lender and not reimbursed by the Borrower on the date due as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason. Each Tranche A Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence of an Event of Default or reduction or termination of the Tranche A Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

(e) Reimbursement. If the Issuing Lender shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Paying Agent an amount equal to such LC Disbursement not later than the first Business Day following the date the Borrower receives notice from the Issuing Lender or the Paying Agent of such LC Disbursement; provided, that, to the extent not reimbursed and, subject to the satisfaction (or waiver) of the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, including, without limitation, making a request in accordance with Section 2.03(a) that such payment shall be financed with an ABR Borrowing in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Borrowing. If the Borrower fails to make such payment when due (including by a Borrowing), the Paying Agent shall notify each Tranche A Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the Borrower in respect thereof and such Tranche A Lender’s Tranche A Commitment Percentage thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each Tranche A Lender shall pay to the Paying Agent its Tranche A Commitment

Percentage of the payment then due from the Borrower, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.04 with respect to Tranche A Loans made by such Tranche A Lender (and Section 2.04 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Tranche A Lenders), and the Paying Agent shall promptly pay to the Issuing Lender the amounts so received by it from the Tranche A Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Paying Agent of any payment from the Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, the Paying Agent shall distribute such payment to the Issuing Lender or, to the extent that Tranche A Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Lender, then to such Tranche A Lenders and the Issuing Lender as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Tranche A Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Lender for any LC Disbursement (other than the funding of ABR Loans as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Tranche A Loan and shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement.

(f) Obligations Absolute. The Borrower’s obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein or herein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the Issuing Lender under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrower’s obligations hereunder. Neither the Paying Agent, the Agents, the Tranche A Lenders nor the Issuing Lender, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Lender; provided, that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the Issuing Lender from liability to the Borrower (nor waive any claims the Borrower may have against the Issuing Lender with respect thereto) to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by the Issuing Lender’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of the Issuing Lender (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), the Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lender may, in its reasonable discretion, either accept and make

payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.

(g) Disbursement Procedures. The Issuing Lender shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. The Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Paying Agent and the Borrower by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of such demand for payment and whether the Issuing Lender has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided, that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse the Issuing Lender and the Tranche A Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement in accordance with the terms herein.

(h) Interim Interest. If the Issuing Lender shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Borrower shall reimburse (including by a Borrowing) such LC Disbursement in full not later than the first Business Day following the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Loans. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the Issuing Lender, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Tranche A Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section to reimburse the Issuing Lender shall be for the account of such Tranche A Lender to the extent of such payment.

(i) Replacement of the Issuing Lender. Any Issuing Lender may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower, the Agents, the replaced Issuing Lender and the successor Issuing Lender. The Agents shall notify the Tranche A Lenders of any such replacement of the Issuing Lender. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 2.20. From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of the Issuing Lender under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Lender” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Lender, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Lenders, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing Lender hereunder, the replaced Issuing Lender shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Lender under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.

(j) Replacement of Letters of Credit; Cash Collateralization. By no later than three (3) calendar months prior to the Tranche A Maturity Date (and, in the case of any Letter of Credit issued within the three (3) month period prior to the Tranche A Maturity Date if such Letter of Credit has an expiration date or potential expiration date beyond the Tranche A Maturity Date) the Borrower shall (i) cause all Letters of Credit which expire after the Tranche A Maturity Date to be returned to the Issuing Lender undrawn and marked “cancelled” or (ii) if the Borrower is unable to do so in whole or in part either (A) provide one or more “back-

to-back” letters of credit to one or more Issuing Lenders in a form reasonably satisfactory to each such Issuing Lender that is a beneficiary of such “back-to-back” letter of credit and the Agents, issued by a bank reasonably satisfactory to each such Issuing Lender and the Agents, and/or (B) deposit cash in the Letter of Credit Account, the sum of (A) and (B) of the foregoing sentence to be in an aggregate amount equal to 102% of the then undrawn stated amount of all LC Exposure (less the amount, if any, then on deposit in the Letter of Credit Account) as collateral security for the Borrower’s reimbursement obligations in connection therewith, such cash to be promptly remitted to the Borrower upon the expiration, cancellation or other termination or satisfaction or provision of a back-to-back Letters of Credit as provided in clause 2.02(j)(i)(A) above of such reimbursement obligations in whole or in part (“Cash Collateralization”). The Paying Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account.

No more than fifteen (15) Borrowings of Eurodollar Loans may be outstanding at any one time.

(b) To make an Interest Election Request pursuant to this Section, the Borrower shall notify the Paying Agent of such election by telephone or electronic transmission by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03(a) or Section 2.03(b) if the Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic or electronic transmission Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable (subject to Section 2.08) and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Paying Agent of a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by the Paying Agent and signed by the Borrower.

(c) Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.01:

(ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day;

(iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing; and

(d) Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Paying Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.

(e) If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurodollar Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period

such Borrowing shall, unless the Paying Agent is otherwise instructed by the Borrower in writing (and in all cases subject to Section 2.08), be continued as a Eurodollar Loan with a one (1) month Interest Period. By its execution of this Agreement, the Borrower hereby authorizes and instructs the Paying Agent to, continue all Borrowings into Eurodollar Loans as provided in the preceding sentence, until the Borrower revokes such authorization and instruction in writing.

SECTION 2.08 Alternate Rate of Interest. In the event, and on each occasion, that on the day two Business Days prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Loan, the Paying Agent shall have reasonably determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower absent manifest error) that reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable Adjusted LIBO Rate, the Paying Agent shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, give written, facsimile or telegraphic notice of such determination to the Borrower and the Lenders, and any request by the Borrower for a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans (including pursuant to a refinancing with Eurodollar Loans) pursuant to Section 2.03 may either be (i) revoked by the Borrower or (ii) deemed by the Borrower to be a request for a Borrowing of ABR Loans. After such notice shall have been given and until the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, each subsequent request for a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans shall be deemed to be a request for a Borrowing of ABR Loans.

(ii) change the basis of taxation of payments to any Lender or the Issuing Lender of the principal of or interest on any Eurodollar Loan or any Letter of Credit or participation therein, or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder (other than changes in respect of Taxes imposed on, or measured by, the net income or overall gross receipts or franchise taxes of such Lender by the national jurisdiction in which such Lender has its principal office or in which the applicable lending office for such Eurodollar Loan is located or by any political subdivision or taxing authority therein, or by any other jurisdiction or by any political subdivision or taxing authority); or

(iii) impose on any Lender or the Issuing Lender or the London interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender or the Issuing Lender of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or the Issuing Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Borrower will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) If any Lender or the Issuing Lender reasonably determines in good faith that any Change in Law regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or the Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts, in each case as documented by such Lender or Issuing Lender to the Borrower as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered; it being understood that to the extent duplicative of the provisions in Section 2.15, this Section 2.13(b) shall not apply to Taxes.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the Issuing Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided, that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or the Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or the Issuing Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. The protection of this Section shall be available to each Lender regardless of any possible contention as to the invalidity or inapplicability of the law, rule, regulation, guideline or other change or condition which shall have occurred or been imposed.

SECTION 2.14 Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of the occurrence and continuance an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of the occurrence and continuance an Event of Default), (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurodollar Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto, or (d) the assignment of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.16, then, in any such event, at the request of such Lender the Borrower shall compensate such Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurodollar Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount reasonably determined in good faith by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the eurodollar market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within twenty (20) days after receipt thereof.

SECTION 2.15 Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided, that if the Borrower shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Paying Agent, Lender or Issuing

Lender (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b) In addition, the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender or the Issuing Lender, or by the Paying Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or the Issuing Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower shall deliver to the Paying Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued, if any, by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment to the extent available, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Paying Agent.

(e) Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Paying Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or requested by the Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate.

(f) If the Paying Agent or a Lender determines, in its reasonable discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.15, it shall pay over such refund to the Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 2.15 with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Paying Agent or such Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided, that the Borrower, upon the request of the Paying Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Paying Agent or such Lender in the event the Paying Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This Section shall not be

construed to require the Paying Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.

SECTION 2.16 Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment.

(a) The Borrower shall make each payment or prepayment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.13 or 2.14, or otherwise) prior to 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the reasonable discretion of the Paying Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Paying Agent at its offices at 270 Park Avenue, New York, New York, pursuant to wire instructions to be provided by the Paying Agent, except payments to be made directly to the Issuing Lender as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.13, 2.14 and 10.04 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Paying Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder shall be made in Dollars.

(b) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Paying Agent to pay fully all Obligations then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of Fees and expenses then due under Sections 2.18 and 10.04 payable to the Agents, the Collateral Agents and the Paying Agent, in their respective capacities as such, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of Fees and expenses then due to such parties, (ii) second, towards payment of Fees and expenses then due under Sections 2.19, 2.20 and 10.04 payable to the Lenders and the Issuing Lender and towards payment of interest then due on account of the Tranche A Loans, Letters of Credit and Tranche B Loans, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of such Fees and expenses and interest then due to such parties, and (iii) third, towards payment of (A) principal of the Tranche A Loans, unreimbursed LC Disbursements and Tranche B Loans then due hereunder, and (B) any obligations owing to any Lender or its banking Affiliates in connection with any Indebtedness permitted under Section 6.03(h) and any Indebtedness permitted pursuant to Section 6.03(g) to the extent such Indebtedness is secured as permitted by Section 6.01(a)(viii) (pro rata among the holders of such Indebtedness that is secured as permitted by Section 6.01(a)(viii)), ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal, unreimbursed LC Disbursements, cash management obligations and Indebtedness permitted pursuant to Section 6.03(g) (but only to the extent such Indebtedness is secured as permitted by Section 6.01(a)(viii)) then due to such parties.

(c) Unless the Paying Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Paying Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Lender hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Paying Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and

may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Paying Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or Issuing Lender with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Paying Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Paying Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

(d) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.02(e), 2.04(a) or (b) 10.04(c), then the Paying Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Paying Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.

SECTION 2.17 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. (a) If the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender under Section 2.13 or to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.15, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder, to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates or to file any certificate or document reasonably requested by the Borrower, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation, assignment or filing (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.13 or 2.15, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b) If, after the date hereof, any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.13 or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.15, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Agents, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 10.02), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided, that (i) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Agents (and if a Tranche A Commitment is being assigned, the Issuing Lender), which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, conditioned or delayed, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts due, owing and payable to it hereunder at such time, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.15, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

SECTION 2.18 Certain Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Paying Agent, for the respective accounts of the Paying Agent and the Lenders, the fees set forth in that certain Fee Letter dated January 11, 2007 among JPMCB, JPMSI and the Borrower, at the times set forth therein, and as otherwise heretofore agreed, as well as pay to the applicable recipient all other fees set forth in any other fee letters entered into by Borrower in connection with the Joint Commitment Letter.

Such Commitment Fee, to the extent then accrued, shall be payable in arrears (a) on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, (b) on the Tranche A Maturity Date, and (c) as provided in Section 2.10 hereof, upon any reduction or termination in whole or in part of the Total Tranche A Commitment with respect to such portion of the Tranche A Commitment being reduced or terminated.

In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay each Issuing Lender for its account a fronting fee of one eighth of one percent (¹/8%) per annum in respect of each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender, for the period from and including the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit to and including the date of termination of such Letter of Credit. Accrued fees described in this paragraph in respect of each Letter of Credit shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December and on the Tranche A Maturity Date or, if earlier, the Termination Date.

Lender shall have made any demand under any Loan Document and although such obligations may not have been accelerated. Each Lender and Agent agree promptly to notify the Borrower and Guarantors after any such set-off and application made by such Lender or Agent (or any of such banking Affiliates), as the case may be, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of each Lender and the Agents under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies which such Lender and the Agents may have upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default.

(b) Any Lender being replaced pursuant to Section 2.25(a) above shall (i) execute and deliver an Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such Lender’s outstanding Loans and participations in Letters of Credit, and (ii) deliver any documentation evidencing such Loans to the Borrower or the Agents. Pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, (A) the assignee Lender shall acquire all or a portion, as the case may be, of the assigning Lender’s outstanding Loans and participations in Letters of Credit, (B) all obligations of the Borrower owing to the assigning Lender relating to the Loans and participations so assigned shall be paid in full by the assignee Lender to such assigning Lender concurrently with such assignment and acceptance and (C) upon such payment and, if so requested by the assignee Lender, delivery to the assignee Lender of the appropriate documentation executed by the Borrower in connection with previous Borrowings, the assignee Lender shall become a Lender hereunder and the assigning Lender shall cease to constitute a Lender hereunder with respect to such assigned Loans and participations, except with respect to indemnification provisions under this Agreement, which shall survive as to such assigning Lender.

None of the Agents, Collateral Agents and Paying Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 10.08) or in the absence of its own gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct. The Agents, Collateral Agents and Paying Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Event of Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Agents, Collateral Agents and Paying Agent by the Borrower or a Lender, and the Agents, Collateral Agents and Paying Agent shall not be responsible for, or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into, (A) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement, (B) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or in connection herewith, (C) the performance or observance of any of the

(b) The Agents, Collateral Agents and Paying Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person.

(c) Each of the Agents, Collateral Agents and Paying Agent may perform any and all of its respective duties and exercise its respective rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by such agent.

SECTION 8.05 Successor Agents. Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor agent as provided in this paragraph, either of the Agents or the Paying Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders, the Issuing Lender, the other Agent and the Borrower. Upon

any such resignation by an Agent (or by an Agent and the Paying Agent), the other Agent shall become the sole Agent hereunder. Upon any resignation by the remaining Agent, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor with, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the consent of the Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders with (if applicable) the consent of the Borrower and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent may, in consultation with the Borrower, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Lender, appoint a successor Agent which shall be a bank institution with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor.

Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agents or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

SECTION 8.07 Advances and Payments.

(a) On the date of each Loan, the Paying Agent shall be authorized (but not obligated) to advance, for the account of each of the Lenders, the amount of the Loan to be made by it in accordance with its Tranche A Commitment or Tranche B Commitment, as the case may be, hereunder. Should the Paying Agent do so, each of the Lenders agrees forthwith to reimburse the Paying Agent in immediately available funds for the amount so advanced on its behalf by the Paying Agent, together with interest at the Federal Funds Effective Rate if not so reimbursed on the date due from and including such date but not including the date of reimbursement.

(b) Any amounts received by the Paying Agent in connection with this Agreement (other than amounts to which the Paying Agent is entitled pursuant to Sections 2.17, 8.04 and 10.04), the application of which is not otherwise provided for in this Agreement, shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.16(b). All amounts to be paid to a Lender by the Paying Agent shall be credited to that Lender, after collection by the Agent, in immediately available funds either by wire transfer or deposit in that Lender’s correspondent account with the Paying Agent, as such Lender and the Paying Agent shall from time to time agree.

SECTION 8.08 Sharing of Setoffs. Each Lender agrees that if it shall, through the exercise either by it or any of its banking Affiliates of a right of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim against the Borrower or a Guarantor, including, but not limited to, a secured claim under Section 506 of the Bankruptcy Code or other security or interest arising from, or in lieu of, such secured claim and received by such Lender (or any of its banking Affiliates) under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of its Loans or LC Exposure as a result of which the unpaid portion of its Loans or LC Exposure is proportionately less than the unpaid portion of the Loans or LC Exposure of any other Lender (a) it shall promptly purchase at par (and shall be deemed to have thereupon purchased) from such other Lender a participation in the Loans or LC Exposure of such other Lender, so that the aggregate unpaid principal amount of each Lender’s Loans and LC Exposure and its participation in Loans and LC Exposure of the other Lenders shall be in the same proportion to the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Loans then outstanding and LC Exposure as the principal amount of its Loans and LC Exposure prior to the obtaining of such payment was to the principal amount of all Loans outstanding and LC Exposure prior to the obtaining of such payment and (b) such other adjustments shall be made from time to time as shall be equitable to ensure that the Lenders share such payment pro-rata, provided, that if any such non-pro-rata payment is thereafter recovered or otherwise set aside, such purchase of participations shall be rescinded (without interest). The Borrower expressly consents to the foregoing arrangements and agrees that any Lender holding (or deemed to be holding) a participation in a Loan or LC Exposure acquired pursuant to this Section or any of its banking Affiliates may exercise any and all rights of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim with respect to any and all moneys owing by the Borrower to such Lender as fully as if such Lender was the original obligee thereon, in the amount of such participation.

SECTION 8.09 Syndication Agent. Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC (“CSS”), identified in this Agreement as “syndication agent,” shall not have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than those applicable to all Lenders as such.

SECTION 9. GUARANTY

SECTION 9.01 Guaranty.

(a) Each of the Guarantors unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the due and punctual payment by the Borrower of the Obligations (including interest accruing on and after the filing of any petition in bankruptcy or of reorganization of the obligor whether or not post filing interest is allowed in such proceeding). Each of the Guarantors further agrees that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice to or further assent from it, and it will remain bound upon this guaranty notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any of the Obligations. The Obligations of the Guarantors shall be joint and several.

(b) To the extent permitted by applicable law, each of the Guarantors waives presentation to, demand for payment from and protest to the Borrower or any other Guarantor, and also waives notice of protest for nonpayment. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall not be affected by (i) the failure of the Agents or a Lender to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Borrower or any other Guarantor under the provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise; (ii) any extension or renewal of any provision hereof or thereof; (iii) any rescission, waiver, compromise, acceleration, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of any of the Loan Documents; (iv) the release, exchange, waiver or foreclosure of any security held by the Collateral Agents for the Obligations or any of them; (v) the failure of the Collateral Agents or a Lender to exercise any right or remedy against any other Guarantor; or (vi) the release or substitution of any Guarantor or any other Guarantor.

(c) To the extent permitted by applicable law, each of the Guarantors further agrees that this guaranty constitutes a guaranty of payment when due and not just of collection, and waives any right to require that any resort be had by the Agents, the Collateral Agents or a Lender to any security held for payment of the Obligations or to any balance of any deposit, account or credit on the books of the Agents, the Paying Agent, the Collateral Agents or a Lender in favor of the Borrower or any other Guarantor, or to any other Person.

(d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, each of the Guarantors hereby waives any defense that it might have based on a failure to remain informed of the financial condition of the Borrower and of any other Guarantor and any circumstances affecting the ability of the Borrower to perform under this Agreement.

(e) To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor’s guaranty shall not be affected by the genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the Obligations or any other instrument evidencing any Obligations, or by the existence, validity, enforceability, perfection, or extent of any collateral therefor or by any other circumstance relating to the Obligations which might otherwise constitute a defense to this Guaranty (other than payment of the Obligations). None of the Agents, the Paying Agent, the Collateral Agents, nor any of the Lenders makes any representation or warranty in respect to any such circumstances or shall have any duty or responsibility whatsoever to any Guarantor in respect of the management and maintenance of the Obligations.

(f) Upon the Obligations becoming due and payable (by acceleration or otherwise), the Lenders shall be entitled to immediate payment of such Obligations by the Guarantors upon written demand by the Agents or the Paying Agent.

SECTION 9.02 No Impairment of Guaranty. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason, including, without limitation, any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to any defense (other than payment in full of the Obligations) or set-off, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Obligations. To the extent permitted by applicable law, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected

by the failure of the Agents, the Paying Agent, the Collateral Agents or a Lender to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy under this Agreement or any other agreement, by any waiver or modification of any provision hereof or thereof, by any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Obligations, or by any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of the Guarantors or would otherwise operate as a discharge (other than to the extent of payment of the Obligations) of the Guarantors as a matter of law, unless and until the Obligations are paid in full.

SECTION 9.03 Continuation and Reinstatement, etc. Each Guarantor further agrees that if any payment, or any part thereof, of any Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by the Agents, the Issuing Lender, any Lender or any other Secured Party upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of Borrower or a Guarantor, or otherwise, its Guaranty hereunder shall continue to be effective or be reinstated (as applicable) to the extent of such rescission or restoration.

SECTION 9.04 Subrogation. Upon payment by any Guarantor of any of the Obligations to the Agents, the Paying Agent, the Collateral Agents or a Lender hereunder, all rights of such Guarantor against the Borrower arising as a result thereof by way of right of subrogation or otherwise, shall in all respects be subordinate and junior in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all the Obligations (including interest accruing on and after the filing of any petition in bankruptcy or of reorganization of an obligor whether or not post filing interest is allowed in such proceeding) (other than contingent indemnification obligations). If any amount shall be paid to such Guarantor for the account of the Borrower relating to the Obligations, such amount shall be held for the benefit of the Paying Agent and the Lenders and shall promptly be paid to the Paying Agent and the Lenders to be credited and applied to the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured.

(A) the Paying Agent, (with the consent of the Agents) provided that no consent of the Paying Agent shall be required for an assignment of all or any portion of a Tranche B Loan to an assignee that is (I) immediately prior to giving effect to such assignment a Lender owning a portion of the Loan of the same tranche as the portion of the Loan to be assigned, (II) an Affiliate of such a Lender, or (III) an Approved Fund; provided, further, no consent of the Paying Agent shall be required for an assignment of all or any portion of a Tranche A Commitment and Tranche A Loans to an assignee that is (I) immediately prior to giving effect to such assignment a Lender owning a portion of the Loan of the same tranche as the portion of the Loan to be assigned or (II) an Affiliate of such a Lender;

Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 10.02 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (d) of this Section.

(iv) The Paying Agent shall maintain at its offices a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Tranche A Commitments, or the Tranche B Commitments (as the case may be) of, and principal amount of the Loans and LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Guarantors, the Paying Agent, the Issuing Lender and the Lenders may

100

treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary.

No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

(d) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower, the Agents, the Paying Agent, or the Issuing Lender, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Tranche A Commitment or the Tranche B Commitment (as the case may be) and the Loans owing to it); provided, that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Borrower, the Agents, the Paying Agent, the Issuing Lender and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided, that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 10.08(a) to the extent that such Lender’s consent to such amendment, modification or waiver is required by such proviso. Subject to paragraph (d)(ii) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.13 and 2.15 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.15 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 8.08 as though it were a Lender.

(ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.15 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to

101

such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.15 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 2.15(e) as though it were a Lender.

(e) Any Lender may at any time pledge or grant a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including without limitation any pledge or grant of security with respect to obligations owed to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided, that no such pledge or grant of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

No such amendment

105

or modification shall adversely affect the rights and obligations of the Agents or any Issuing Lender hereunder in this capacity as Agent or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, without its prior written consent. No notice to or demand on the Borrower or any Guarantor shall entitle the Borrower or any Guarantor to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances. Each assignee under Section 10.02(b) shall be bound by any amendment, modification, waiver, or consent authorized as provided herein, and any consent by a Lender shall bind any Person subsequently acquiring an interest on the Loans held by such Lender. No amendment to this Agreement shall be effective against the Borrower or any Guarantor unless signed by the Borrower or such Guarantor, as the case may be.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 10.08(a), (i) in the event that the Borrower requests that this Agreement be modified or amended in a manner which would require the unanimous consent of all of the Lenders and such modification or amendment is agreed to by the Required Lenders, then with the consent of the Borrower and the Required Lenders, the Borrower and the Required Lenders shall be permitted to amend the Agreement without the consent of the Lender or Lenders which did not agree to the modification or amendment requested by the Borrower (such Lender or Lenders, collectively the “Minority Lenders”) to provide for (A) the termination of the Tranche A Commitment or Tranche B Commitment (as the case may be) of each of the Minority Lenders, (B) the addition to this Agreement of one or more other financial institutions in accordance with Section 10.02, or an increase in the Tranche A Commitment or Tranche B Commitment (as the case may be) of one or more of the Required Lenders, so that the Total Commitment after giving effect to such amendment shall be in the same amount as the Total Commitment immediately before giving effect to such amendment, (C) if any Loans are outstanding at the time of such amendment, the making of such additional Loans by such new financial institutions or Required Lender or Lenders, as the case may be, as may be necessary to repay in full the outstanding Loans of the Minority Lenders immediately before giving effect to such amendment and (D) such other modifications to this Agreement as may be appropriate; and (ii) no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder, except that the Total Commitment of such Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender (it being understood that any Loans held or deemed held by any Defaulting Lender shall be excluded for a vote of the Lenders hereunder requiring any consent of the Lenders).

(c) Subject to compliance with the procedures described in Section 8.01(b)(v) and (vi) hereof, the Borrower may request that the Total Commitments be increased subsequent to the Closing Date by up to $450,000,000 (the “Incremental Facilities”), provided that the Incremental Facilities may not be increased such that the Total Tranche A Commitment is greater than $450,000,000; provided further, that (i) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or will exist after giving effect to such increase, (ii) the representations and warranties contained herein shall be true and correct in all material respects after giving effect to the implementation of an Incremental Facility and (iii) to the extent the new lender is providing a Tranche A Commitment, the new lender proposed by the Borrower is approved by the Agents and the Issuing Bank, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld. Any Loans extended under this Section 10.08(c) pursuant to an increase in the Total Tranche A Commitments (or “Incremental Tranche A Facility”) and any increase in the Total Tranche B Commitments (or Incremental Tranche B Facility”) shall rank

106

pari passu in right of payment with the then-existing Loans and will mature (in the case of the Incremental Tranche A Facility) on the Tranche A Maturity Date and (in the case of the Incremental Tranche B Facility) on the Tranche B Maturity Date and otherwise will have the same terms and conditions as Tranche A Loans and Tranche B Loans, respectively. The Incremental Facilities may be extended at any time and from time to time. The interest rate margins applicable to the Incremental Facilities shall be determined by the Borrower and the new lenders providing the Incremental Facilities at the time it is made available; provided that such interest rate margins for the Incremental Tranche B Loans shall not be higher than the applicable margins for the then-existing Tranche B Loans by more than 0.50% without such applicable margins for the then-existing Tranche B Loans being adjusted upwards to be within 0.50% of the margins for any Incremental Tranche B Loans and the interest rate margins for the Tranche A Loans shall be the same as those under the then-existing Tranche A Loans (as the same may be adjusted upwards in connection with the extension of any Incremental Tranche A Loans). Any increases in the margins on the Tranche A Loans and/or the Tranche B Loans pursuant to this Section 10.08(c) may be implemented by a written acknowledgement by the Borrower of same delivered to the Agents, without the need for an amendment.

(d) Further, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 10.08, if the Agents and the Borrower shall have jointly identified an obvious error or any error or omission of a technical or immaterial nature in any provision of the Loan Documents, then the Agents and the Borrower shall be permitted to amend such provision and such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to any Loan Document if the same is not objected to in writing by the Required Lenders within five (5) Business Days notice thereof, provided, that no modification or amendment may be implemented pursuant to this Section 10.08(d) to the extent that any such modification or amendment would adversely affect the rights of any Lender.

SECTION 10.09 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrower herein and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Agents, the Issuing Lender or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Event of Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and

United Airlines Restructures $3 Billion Secured Debt Facility,

Pays Down Loan by Nearly $1 Billion, Lowers Interest Rate

CHICAGO, Feb. 5, 2007 – United Airlines, the primary subsidiary of UAL Corporation (NASDAQ: UAUA), announced today that on February 2, 2007, it used cash to pay down $972 million of its original $3 billion exit facility, and refinanced the remaining $2 billion. The new facility was arranged by J.P. Morgan Securities, Inc. and Citigroup Global Markets as joint lead arrangers and Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC as syndication agent. The transaction results in significantly lower interest costs, less restrictive covenants, and releases approximately $2.5 billion of collateral.

“Restructuring our exit facility to a lower rate reflects our improved financial condition and the market’s confidence in United,” said Jake Brace, executive vice president and chief financial officer. “It is a testament to our ability to generate cash over the past year. We are pleased to be working with JPMorgan, Citigroup and Credit Suisse as we continue our partnership with these premier financial institutions.”

The new credit facility consists of a $1.8 billion term loan and a $255 million revolving credit line. The refinancing was significantly oversubscribed, enabling the company to reduce its financing costs by 175 basis points to 200 basis points over the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). The lower pricing sets a new market benchmark for network carriers and is expected to result in net pre-tax savings of approximately $70 million per annum.

News Release

The new credit facility will enable United to utilize its available collateral more efficiently. The primary collateral for the new facility includes intangible assets such as routes, airport gates, and slots. The refinancing enables United to remove 101 aircraft and the company’s spare parts inventory, valued at approximately $2.5 billion, from the collateral pool. The credit facility does not restrict the company’s use of these assets to secure new financing, providing a source of additional liquidity if needed.
