a registration statement on Form S-3 (No. 333-113680) covering
registration of debt securities, including the Securities, under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933
Act”), which registration statement has been declared
effective by the Commission and copies of
which have heretofore been delivered to
you. The Indenture has been qualified under the Trust
Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “1939
Act”). Such Registration Statement, in the form in
which it was declared effective, including any amendments or
supplements thereto in the form such amendments or supplements
became effective, and any documents incorporated by reference
therein through the date hereof, and at the Closing Time (as
defined in Section 2(b)), is hereinafter referred to as the
“Registration Statement.” The Company proposes to

(“Rule 424(b)”) of the rules and regulations of the
Commission under the 1933 Act (the “1933 Act
Regulations”) a prospectus supplement (the “Prospectus
Supplement”), dated as of the date hereof, and a prospectus
(the “Base Prospectus”), dated as of the date hereof,
each relating to the Securities and the distribution thereof and

Prospectus, as supplemented by the Prospectus Supplement, together
in the form in which they are filed with the Commission pursuant to
Rule 424(b) and including all documents incorporated or deemed to
be incorporated by reference therein, are hereinafter referred to
as the “Prospectus,” except that if any revised
prospectus shall be provided to the Underwriters by the Company for
use in connection with the offering of the Securities which differs
from the Prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule
424(b) (whether or not such revised prospectus is required to be
filed by the Company pursuant to Rule 424(b)), the term
“Prospectus” shall refer to such revised prospectus
from and after the time it is first provided to the Underwriters
for such use. As used herein, the term “Prospectus
Supplement” shall refer to the Prospectus Supplement dated as
of the date hereof used with respect to the Securities. Any
registration statement filed pursuant to Rule 462(b) of the 1933
Act Regulations is herein referred to as the “Rule 462(b)
Registration Statement,” and after such filing the term
“Registration Statement” shall include any Rule 462(b)
Registration Statement. For purposes of this Agreement, all
references to the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any
amendment or supplement to any of the foregoing shall be deemed to
include the copy filed with the Commission pursuant to its
Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval System
(“EDGAR”).
All references in this Agreement to
financial statements and schedules and other information which is
“contained,” “included” or
“stated” in the Registration Statement or the
Prospectus (and all other references of like import) shall be
deemed to mean and include all such financial statements and
schedules and other information which is or is deemed to be
incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement or the
Prospectus, as the case may be; and all references in this
Agreement to amendments or supplements to the Registration
Statement or the Prospectus shall be deemed to mean and include the
filing of any document under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(the “1934 Act”) which is incorporated by reference in
the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, as the case may
be.

1.
Representations and
Warranties .
(a)
The Company
represents and warrants to each Underwriter as of the date hereof
that:
2
(i)
The Company meets
the requirements for use of Form S-3 under the 1933 Act. At the
time the Registration Statement became effective, the Registration
Statement complied and at the Closing Time, the Registration
Statement will comply in all material respects with the
requirements of the 1933 Act and the 1933 Act Regulations and the
1939 Act, and the rules and regulations of the Commission
promulgated thereunder (the “1939 Act Regulations”) and
no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration
Statement (including any Rule 462(b) Registration Statement) has
been issued under the 1933 Act and no proceedings for that purpose
have been instituted or are pending or, to the knowledge of the
Company, are contemplated by the Commission, and any request on the
part of the Commission for additional information has been complied
with. The Registration Statement as of December 16, 2004
(the “Amended Incorporated Documents Filing Date”),
each time thereafter at which any amendment to the Registration
Statement (including any Rule 462(b) Registration Statement) was or
was deemed to be effective, and as of the date hereof, did not, and
as of the Closing Time, will not, considering the Registration
Statement and the documents incorporated therein on such respective
dates, considered as a whole, contain an untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading. The Prospectus, as of the date hereof does not,
and at the Closing Time, and in each case including the documents
incorporated therein as of such dates (the “Incorporated
Documents”), will not, contain an untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order
to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances
under which they were made, not misleading; provided however, that
the representations and warranties in this subsection shall
not apply to that part of the Registration Statement which shall
constitute the Statements of Eligibility under the 1939 Act on Form
T-1 of the Trustee or Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as the
case may be, or apply to statements or omissions from the
Registration Statement or Prospectus made in reliance upon and in
conformity with information furnished to the Company in writing by
any Underwriter through the Representatives expressly for use in
the Registration Statement or Prospectus. Each Prospectus delivered
to the Underwriters for use in connection with this offering will
be identical to the electronically transmitted copies thereof filed
with the Commission pursuant to EDGAR, except to the extent
permitted by Regulation S-T.
(ii)
The accountants
who certified the financial statements included or incorporated by
reference in the Prospectus are independent public accountants as
required by the 1933 Act and the 1933 Act Regulations.
(iii)
The financial
statements and any supporting schedules of the Company and its
consolidated subsidiaries included or incorporated by reference in
the Registration Statement and the Prospectus present fairly the
consolidated financial position of the Company and its consolidated
subsidiaries as of the dates indicated and the consolidated results
of their operations for the periods specified; and, except as
stated therein, said financial statements have been prepared

entered into by the Company or any of its subsidiaries, other than

the failure to do so would materially adversely affect the business

bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws
affecting creditors’ rights generally (including, without
limitation, fraudulent conveyance laws) and by the application of

valid and binding obligations of the Company enforceable against
the Company in accordance with their terms, except as may be
limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or
similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally
(including, without limitation, fraudulent conveyance laws) and by

the Indenture conform in all material respects to all statements
relating thereto contained in the Registration Statement and the
Prospectus.

business or financial condition of the Company and its Subsidiaries
considered as one enterprise; and the execution, delivery and
performance of this Agreement and the Indenture and the
consummation of the transactions contemplated herein and therein
will not conflict with, or constitute a breach of, or default
under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge
or encumbrance upon any property or assets of the Company or any of
