If either Borrower shall default in the payment of any principal of or interest on any Loan or any other amount due hereunder, or in the reimbursement of any L/C Disbursement, by acceleration or otherwise, or under any other Loan Document, then, or, if any other Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Administrative Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders) so directs, until such defaulted amount shall have been paid in full or such other Event of Default cured or waived, to the extent permitted by law, all amounts outstanding under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall bear interest (after as well as before judgment), payable on demand, at the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan (or the Base Rate in the case of Obligations other than Loans) pursuant to Section 2.06 plus 2% per annum. 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 Borrowing the Administrative Agent shall have reasonably determined that dollar deposits in the principal amounts of the Loans comprising such Borrowing are not generally available in the London interbank market, or that the rates at which such dollar deposits are being offered will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to any Lender of making or maintaining its Eurodollar Loan during such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, give written or fax notice of such determination to the Borrowers and the Lenders. In the event of any such determination, until the Administrative Agent shall have advised the Borrowers and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, any request by the Borrowers for a Eurodollar Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.03 or 2.10 shall be deemed to be a request for an ABR Borrowing. Each determination by the Administrative Agent under this Section shall be conclusive absent manifest error. SECTION 2.09 Termination and Reduction of Commitments. (a) The Term Loan Commitments shall automatically be reduced pro tanto upon the making of the Term Loans. The Revolving Credit Commitments and the Swingline Commitment shall automatically terminate at 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the Revolving Maturity Date. The L/C Commitment shall automatically terminate on the earlier to occur of (i) the termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments and (ii) the date 30 days prior to the Revolving Maturity Date. (b) Upon at least three Business Days' prior irrevocable written or fax notice to the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers may at any time in whole permanently terminate, or from time to time in part permanently reduce, any Class of Commitments; provided, however, that (i) each partial reduction of any Class of Commitments shall be 33 in an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and in a minimum amount of $5,000,000 and (ii) the Total Revolving Credit Commitment shall not be reduced to an amount that is less than the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure at the time. (c) Each reduction in any Class of Commitments hereunder shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective applicable Commitments of such Class. The Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders, on the date of each termination or reduction, the Commitment Fees on the amount of the Commitments so terminated or reduced accrued to but excluding the date of such termination or reduction, and no Commitment Fee on the amount of Commitments so terminated or reduced shall accrue thereafter. SECTION 2.10 Conversion and Continuation of Borrowings. The Borrowers shall have the right at any time upon prior irrevocable written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed by written notice) to the Administrative Agent (a) not later than 12:00 noon (Toronto time) one Business Day prior to conversion, to convert any Eurodollar Borrowing into an ABR Borrowing, (b) not later than 12:00 noon (Toronto time) three Business Days prior to conversion or continuation, to convert any ABR Borrowing into a Eurodollar Borrowing or to continue any Eurodollar Borrowing as a Eurodollar Borrowing for an additional Interest Period, and (c) not later than 12:00 noon (Toronto time) three Business Days prior to conversion, to convert the Interest Period with respect to any Eurodollar Borrowing to another permissible Interest Period, subject in each case to the following: (i) each conversion or continuation shall be made pro rata among the Lenders in accordance with the respective principal amounts of the Loans comprising the converted or continued Borrowing; (ii) if less than all the outstanding principal amount of any Borrowing shall be converted or continued, then each resulting Borrowing shall satisfy the limitations specified in Sections 2.02(a) and (b) regarding the principal amount and maximum number of Borrowings of the relevant Type; (iii) each conversion shall be effected by each Lender and the Administrative Agent by recording for the account of such Lender the new Loan of such Lender resulting from such conversion and reducing the Loan (or portion thereof) of such Lender being converted by an equivalent principal amount; accrued interest on any Eurodollar Loan (or portion thereof) being converted shall be paid by the Borrowers at the time of conversion; (iv) if any Eurodollar Borrowing is converted at a time other than the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrowers shall pay, upon demand, any amounts due to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.16; (v) any portion of a Borrowing maturing or required to be repaid in less than one month may not be converted into or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing; 34 (vi) any portion of a Eurodollar Borrowing that cannot be converted into or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing by reason of the immediately preceding clause shall be automatically converted at the end of the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing into an ABR Borrowing; (vii) no Interest Period may be selected for any Eurodollar Term Borrowing that would end later than a Repayment Date occurring on or after the first day of such Interest Period if, after giving effect to such selection, the aggregate outstanding amount of (A) the Eurodollar Term Borrowings with Interest Periods ending on or prior to such Repayment Date and (B) the ABR Term Borrowings would not be at least equal to the principal amount of Term Borrowings to be paid on such Repayment Date; and (viii) upon notice to the Borrowers from the Administrative Agent given at the request of the Required Lenders, after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default, no outstanding Loan may be converted into, or continued as, a Eurodollar Loan. Each notice pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable, shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit E or such other form as shall be acceptable to the Administrative Agent and shall refer to this Agreement and specify (i) the identity and amount of the Borrowing that the Borrowers request be converted or continued, (ii) whether such Borrowing is to be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing or an ABR Borrowing, (iii) if such notice requests a conversion, the date of such conversion (which shall be a Business Day) and (iv) if such Borrowing is to be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period with respect thereto. If no Interest Period is specified in any such notice with respect to any conversion to or continuation as a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month's duration. The Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of any notice given pursuant to this Section and of each Lender's portion of any converted or continued Borrowing. If the Borrowers shall not have given notice in accordance with this Section to continue any Borrowing into a subsequent Interest Period (and shall not otherwise have given notice in accordance with this Section to convert such Borrowing), such Borrowing shall, at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto (unless repaid pursuant to the terms hereof), automatically be continued into an ABR Borrowing. SECTION 2.11 Repayment of Term Borrowings. (a) The Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the accounts of the Term Lenders, on the dates set forth below, or if any such date is not a Business Day, on the immediately preceding Business Day (each such date being called a "REPAYMENT DATE"), a principal amount of the Term Loans (as adjusted from time to time pursuant to Sections 2.12, 2.13(f) and 2.24(d)) equal to the percentage set forth below for such date of the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans outstanding on the Closing Date, together in each case with accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be paid to but excluding the date of such payment:

(b) To the extent not previously paid, all Term Loans shall be due and payable on the Term Maturity Date, together with accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be paid to but excluding the date of payment. (c) All repayments pursuant to this Section shall be subject to Section 2.16, but otherwise shall be without premium or penalty. SECTION 2.12 Optional Prepayment. (a) The Borrowers shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing, in whole or in part, (i) upon at least three Business Days' prior written or fax notice (or telephone notice promptly confirmed by written or fax notice) in the case of Eurodollar Loans, or (ii) written or fax notice (or telephone notice promptly confirmed by written or fax notice) at least one Business Day prior to the date of prepayment in the case of ABR Loans, in each case to the Administrative Agent before 12:00 noon (Toronto time) on the relevant date; provided, however, that each partial prepayment shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and in a minimum amount of $2,000,000. (b) Optional prepayments of Loans shall be applied first, in the order of maturity of the installments of principal in respect of the Term Loans scheduled to be paid within 12 months after such optional prepayment, second, pro rata against the remaining scheduled installments of principal due in respect of the Term Loans (including amounts due on the Term Maturity Date) and third, against any Revolving Credit Loans then outstanding. 36 (c) Each notice of prepayment shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit F or such other form as shall be acceptable to the Administrative Agent, shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing (or portion thereof) to be prepaid, shall be irrevocable and shall commit the Borrowers to prepay such Borrowing by the amount stated therein on the date stated therein. All prepayments under this Section shall be subject to Section 2.16, but otherwise shall be without premium or penalty, and shall be accompanied by accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be prepaid to but excluding the date of payment; provided, however, that in the case of a prepayment of an ABR Revolving Loan or a Swingline Loan that is not made in connection with a termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments, the accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount prepaid to but excluding the date of prepayment shall be payable on the next scheduled Interest Payment Date with respect to such ABR Revolving Loan or Swingline Loan. SECTION 2.13 Mandatory Prepayments. (a) In the event of the termination of all the Revolving Credit Commitments by Corel pursuant to Section 2.09, Corel shall, on the date of such termination, repay or prepay all outstanding Revolving Credit Borrowings and all outstanding Swingline Loans and replace or cause to be canceled (or make other arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank with respect to) all outstanding Letters of Credit. If, after giving effect to any partial reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments by Corel pursuant to Section 2.09, the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure would exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitment, then Corel shall, on the date of such reduction, repay or prepay Revolving Credit Borrowings or Swingline Loans (or a combination thereof), and, after the Revolving Credit Borrowings and Swingline Loans shall have been repaid or prepaid in full, replace or cause to be canceled (or make other arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank with respect to) Letters of Credit, in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess. (b) No later than the earlier of (i) 90 days after the end of each fiscal year of Corel, commencing with the fiscal year ending on November 30, 2006, and (ii) the fifth Business Day after the date on which the financial statements with respect to such fiscal year are delivered pursuant to Section 5.04(a), the Borrowers shall prepay outstanding Term Loans and Revolving Credit Loans, if any, in accordance with paragraph (e) of this Section 2.13 in an aggregate principal amount equal to the ECF Percentage of Excess Cash Flow for such fiscal year; provided that, if any such prepayment would result in the sum of (i) the aggregate amount of all payments, after giving effect to such prepayment, made by the Borrowers and applied to outstanding Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.13 and (ii) the aggregate amount of all repayments made by the Borrowers pursuant to Section 2.11 hereof, exceeding the amount equal to 25% of the aggregate principal amounts advanced to the Borrowers by the Lenders under the Term Loan Commitments hereunder on the Closing Date, then the Borrowers shall not be required to make such prepayment in respect of any Term Loan until five years and one Business Day after the Closing Date. (c) In the event that any Loan Party or any subsidiary of a Loan Party shall receive Net Cash Proceeds from the issuance or other disposition of Indebtedness for money borrowed of any Loan Party or any subsidiary of a Loan Party (other than any 37 cash proceeds from the issuance of Indebtedness for money borrowed permitted pursuant to Section 6.01). the Borrowers shall, not later than the fifth Business Day next following the receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds by such Loan Party or such subsidiary, prepay outstanding Term Loans and Revolving Credit Loans, if any, in accordance with paragraph (e) of this Section 2.13 in an aggregate principal amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds therefrom; provided that, if any such prepayment would result in the sum of (i) the aggregate amount of all payments, after giving effect to such prepayment, made by the Borrowers and applied to outstanding Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.13 and (ii) the aggregate amount of all repayments made by the Borrowers pursuant to Section 2.11 hereof, exceeding the amount equal to 25% of the aggregate principal amounts advanced to the Borrowers by the Lenders under the Term Loan Commitments hereunder on the Closing Date, then the Borrowers shall not be required to make such prepayment in respect of any Term Loan until five years and one Business Day after the Closing Date. (d) In the event and on each occasion that an Equity Issuance occurs, the Borrowers shall, not later than the fifth Business Day next following the occurrence of such Equity Issuance, the Borrowers shall prepay outstanding Term Loans and Revolving Credit Loans, if any, in accordance with paragraph (e) of this Section 2.13 in an aggregate principal amount equal to 50% of the Net Cash Proceeds therefrom; provided that, if any such prepayment would result in the sum of (i) the aggregate amount of all payments, after giving effect to such prepayment, made by the Borrowers and applied to outstanding Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.13 and (ii) the aggregate amount of all repayments made by the Borrowers pursuant to Section 2.11 hereof, exceeding the amount equal to 25% of the aggregate principal amounts advanced to the Borrowers by the Lenders under the Term Loan Commitments hereunder on the Closing Date, then the Borrowers shall not be required to make such prepayment in respect of any Term Loan until five years and one Business Day after the Closing Date. (e) Mandatory prepayments of outstanding Loans under this Section 2.13 shall be first, applied, subject to the provisions of paragraph (g) below, pro rata against the remaining scheduled installments of principal due in respect of the Term Loans under Section 2.11 (not including amounts due on the Term Maturity Date), second, applied against any Revolving Loans and any Swingline Loans then outstanding, third, maintained as cash collateral in respect of any Letters of Credit then outstanding, as provided in Section 2.23(j), and fourth, credited to Corel's Account. (f) The Borrowers shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, at the time of each prepayment required under this Section, (i) a certificate signed by a Financial Officer of Corel setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation of the amount of such prepayment and (ii) to the extent practicable, at least five Business Days prior written notice of such prepayment. Each notice of prepayment shall specify the prepayment date, the Type of each Loan being prepaid and the principal amount of each Loan (or portion thereof) to be prepaid and shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit F or such other form as shall be acceptable to the Administrative Agent. All prepayments of Borrowings under this Section shall be subject to Section 2.16, but otherwise shall be 38 without premium or penalty, and shall be accompanied by accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be prepaid to but excluding the date of payment. (g) Any Term Lender may elect (upon such election, such Term Lender being a "DECLINING LENDER"), by notice to the Administrative Agent in writing (or by telecopy or telephone promptly confirmed in writing) by 12:00 p.m. (Toronto time), at least four Business Days prior to any prepayment of Term Loans required to be made by the Borrowers for the account of such Declining Lender pursuant to Section 2.13(b), (c) or (d), not to accept the portion of such prepayment to which such Declining Lender would be entitled and upon such election, such declined amount shall be offered instead, at least three Business Days prior to any such prepayment, to those Term Lenders other than the Declining Lenders (such Term Lenders being the "ACCEPTING LENDERS") to prepay their Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.13(b), (c) or (d), as the case may be. Any Accepting Lender may elect, by notice to the Administrative Agent in writing (or by telecopy or telephone promptly confirmed in writing) by 12:00 p.m. (Toronto time), at least two Business Days prior to any such prepayment, not to accept the portion of such declined amount offered to it. On the date of such prepayment (the "PREPAYMENT DATE"), (i) an amount equal to that portion of the prepayment required to be offered to the Accepting Lenders shall be offered by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Borrowers to prepay Term Loans owing to such Accepting Lenders on a pro rata basis as provided above, and (ii) any remaining portion of such prepayment after such offer and any such prepayment has been made shall be first, applied against any Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans then outstanding (and the Revolving Credit Commitment and the Swingline Commitment shall be permanently reduced by such amount), second, maintained as cash collateral in respect of any Letters of Credit then outstanding, as provided under Section 2.23(j), and third, credited to Corel's Account. SECTION 2.14 Reserve Requirements; Change in Circumstances. (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Change in Law shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of or credit extended by any Lender or the Issuing Bank (except any such reserve, special deposit or similar requirement which is reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate) or shall impose on such Lender or the Issuing Bank 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 actual cost to such Lender or the Issuing Bank of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan or increase the actual cost to any Lender of issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or purchasing or maintaining a participation therein or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or the Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise) by a material amount, then the Borrowers will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, upon demand such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. (b) If any Lender or the Issuing Bank shall have determined that any Change in Law regarding capital adequacy has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender's or the Issuing Bank's capital or on the capital of such Lender's 39 or the Issuing Bank's holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made or participations in Letters of Credit purchased by such Lender pursuant hereto or the Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Bank pursuant hereto to a level below that which such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender's or the Issuing Bank's holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender's or the Issuing Bank's policies and the policies of such Lender's or the Issuing Bank's holding company with respect to capital adequacy) by a material amount, then from time to time the Borrowers shall pay to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender's or the Issuing Bank's holding company for any such reduction suffered. (c) A certificate of a Lender or the Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or its holding company, as applicable, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be delivered to the Borrowers and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay such Lender or the Issuing Bank the amount shown as due on any such certificate delivered by it within 10 Business Days after its receipt of the same. (d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the Issuing Bank to demand compensation for any increased costs or reduction in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender's or the Issuing Bank's right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrowers shall not be under any obligation to compensate any Lender or the Issuing Bank under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section with respect to increased costs or reductions with respect to any period prior to the date that is 120 days prior to such request if such Lender or the Issuing Bank knew or could reasonably have been expected to know of the circumstances giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of the fact that such circumstances would result in a claim for increased compensation by reason of such increased costs or reductions; provided further that the foregoing limitation shall not apply to any increased costs or reductions arising out of the retroactive application of any Change in Law within such 120-day period. The protection of this Section shall be available to each Lender and the Issuing Bank regardless of any possible contention of the invalidity or inapplicability of the Change in Law that shall have occurred or been imposed. SECTION 2.15 Change in Legality. (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Change in Law shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain any Eurodollar Loan or to give effect to its obligations as contemplated hereby with respect to any Eurodollar Loan, then, by written notice to the Borrowers and to the Administrative Agent: (i) such Lender may declare that Eurodollar Loans will not thereafter (for the duration of such unlawfulness) be made by such Lender hereunder (or be continued for additional Interest Periods and ABR Loans will not thereafter (for such duration) be converted into Eurodollar Loans), whereupon any request for a Eurodollar Borrowing (or to convert an ABR Borrowing to a Eurodollar 40 Borrowing or to continue a Eurodollar Borrowing for an additional Interest Period) shall, as to such Lender only, be deemed a request for an ABR Loan (or a request to continue an ABR Loan as such for an additional Interest Period or to convert a Eurodollar Loan into an ABR Loan, as the case may be), unless such declaration shall be subsequently withdrawn; and (ii) such Lender may require that all outstanding Eurodollar Loans made by it be converted to ABR Loans, in which event all such Eurodollar Loans shall be automatically converted to ABR Loans as of the effective date of such notice as provided in paragraph (b) of this Section. In the event any Lender shall exercise its rights under clause (i) or (ii) above, all payments and prepayments of principal that would otherwise have been applied to repay the Eurodollar Loans that would have been made by such Lender or the converted Eurodollar Loans of such Lender shall instead be applied to repay the ABR Loans made by such Lender in lieu of, or resulting from the conversion of, such Eurodollar Loans. (b) For purposes of this Section, a notice to the Borrowers by any Lender shall be effective as to each Eurodollar Loan made by such Lender, if lawful, on the last day of the Interest Period then applicable to such Eurodollar Loan; in all other cases such notice shall be effective on the date of receipt by the Borrowers. SECTION 2.16 Indemnity. The Borrowers shall indemnify each Lender against any loss or expense that such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence (other than as a result of the gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct of a Lender) of (a) any event, other than a default by such Lender in the performance of its obligations hereunder, which results in (i) such Lender receiving or being deemed to receive any amount on account of the principal of any Eurodollar Loan prior to the end of the Interest Period in effect therefor, (ii) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan to an ABR Loan, or the conversion of the Interest Period with respect to any Eurodollar Loan, in each case other than on the last day of the Interest Period in effect therefor, or (iii) any Eurodollar Loan to be made by such Lender (including any Eurodollar Loan to be made pursuant to a conversion or continuation under Section 2.10) not being made after notice of such Loan shall have been given by the Borrowers hereunder (any of the events referred to in this clause (a) being called a "BREAKAGE EVENT") or (b) any default in the making of any payment or prepayment required to be made hereunder. In the case of any Breakage Event, such loss shall include an amount equal to the excess, as reasonably determined by such Lender, of (i) its cost of obtaining funds for the Eurodollar Loan that is the subject of such Breakage Event for the period from the date of such Breakage Event to the last day of the Interest Period in effect (or that would have been in effect) for such Loan over (ii) the amount of interest likely to be realized by such Lender in redeploying the funds released or not utilized by reason of such Breakage Event for such period. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts which such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Borrowers and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. SECTION 2.17 Pro Rata Treatment. Except as provided below in this Section with respect to Swingline Loans and as required under Section 2.13, each Borrowing, each payment or prepayment of principal of any Borrowing, each payment of interest on the 41 Loans, each payment of the Commitment Fees, each reduction of the Term Loan Commitments or the Revolving Credit Commitments and each conversion of any Borrowing to or continuation of any Borrowing as a Borrowing of any Type shall be allocated pro rata among the Lenders in accordance with their respective applicable Commitments (or, if such Commitments shall have expired or been terminated, in accordance with the respective principal amounts of their outstanding Loans). For purposes of determining the available Revolving Credit Commitments of the Lenders at any time, each outstanding Swingline Loan shall be deemed to have utilized the Revolving Credit Commitments of the Lenders (including those Lenders which shall not have made Swingline Loans) pro rata in accordance with such respective Revolving Credit Commitments. Each Lender agrees that in computing such Lender's portion of any Borrowing to be made hereunder, the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, round each Lender's percentage of such Borrowing to the next higher or lower whole dollar amount. SECTION 2.18 Sharing of Setoffs. Each Lender agrees that if it shall, through the exercise of a right of banker's lien, setoff or counterclaim against the Borrowers or any other Loan Party, or pursuant to a secured claim under Section 506 of Title 11 of the United States Code or other security or interest arising from, or in lieu of, such secured claim, received by such Lender under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law or otherwise, or by any other means, obtain payment (voluntary or involuntary) in respect of any Loan or Loans or L/C Disbursement as a result of which the unpaid principal portion of its Loans and participations in L/C Disbursements shall be proportionately less than the unpaid principal portion of the Loans and participations in L/C Disbursements of any other Lender, it shall be deemed simultaneously to have purchased from such other Lender at face value, and shall promptly pay to such other Lender the purchase price for, a participation in the Loans and L/C Exposure of such other Lender, so that the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Loans and L/C Exposure and participations in Loans and L/C Exposure held by each Lender shall be in the same proportion to the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Loans and L/C Exposure then outstanding as the principal amount of its Loans and L/C Exposure prior to such exercise of banker's lien, setoff or counterclaim or other event was to the principal amount of all Loans and L/C Exposure outstanding prior to such exercise of banker's lien, setoff or counterclaim or other event; provided, however, that if any such purchase or purchases or adjustments shall be made pursuant to this Section and the payment giving rise thereto shall thereafter be recovered, such purchase or purchases or adjustments shall be rescinded to the extent of such recovery and the purchase price or prices or adjustment restored without interest. The Borrowers expressly consent to the foregoing arrangements and agree that any Lender holding a participation in a Loan or L/C Disbursement deemed to have been so purchased may exercise any and all rights of banker's lien, setoff or counterclaim in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and applicable law with respect to any and all moneys owing by the Borrowers to such Lender by reason thereof as fully as if such Lender had made a Loan directly to the Borrowers in the amount of such participation. SECTION 2.19 Payments. (a) The Borrowers shall make each payment (including principal of or interest on any Borrowing or any L/C Disbursement or any Fees or other amounts) hereunder and under any other Loan Document not later than 12:00 noon (Toronto time) on the date when due in immediately available dollars, without setoff, defense or counterclaim. Each such payment (other than (i) Issuing Bank Fees, which shall be paid directly to the Issuing Bank, and (ii) principal of and interest on Swingline Loans, which shall be paid 42 directly to the Swingline Lender except as otherwise provided in Section 2.21 (e)) shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its offices at One Pierrepont Plaza, 7th Floor, 300 Cadman Plaza West, Brooklyn, NY 11201. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other person to the appropriate recipient following receipt thereof. (b) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, whenever any payment (including principal of or interest on any Borrowing or any Fees or other amounts) hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall become due, or otherwise would occur, on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of interest or Fees, if applicable, up to but excluding the day of payment. SECTION 2.20 Taxes and Other Taxes. (a) Any and all payments to the Lender Parties under the Loan Documents shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any and all Indemnified Taxes, unless such Indemnified Taxes are required by law or the administration thereof to be deducted or withheld. If the Borrowers shall be required by law or the administration thereof to deduct or withhold any such Indemnified Taxes from or in respect of any amount payable hereunder, then: (i) the amount payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions or withholdings (including deductions or withholdings applicable to additional amounts paid under this paragraph), each Lender shall receive an amount equal to the sum it would have received if no such deduction or withholding had been made ("ADDITIONAL AMOUNTS") (except in the case of any Revolving Credit Lender that is not an Eligible Canadian Lender), and (ii) the Borrowers as and when due shall pay the full amount of Indemnified Taxes deducted or withheld to the relevant taxation or other authority in accordance with Applicable Law. (b) The Borrowers agree to pay as and when due any Other Taxes in accordance with Applicable Law. (c) The Borrowers agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent and Lender Parties for the full amount of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes not deducted or withheld and paid by the Borrowers in accordance with subsection 2.20(a) or (b) hereof to the relevant taxation or other authority and any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on the amounts payable by the Borrowers under this Section 2.20 paid by the Lender Parties and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not any such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. Payment under this indemnification shall be made within 15 days from the date the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Lender Parties) makes written demand therefor. A certificate as to the amount of such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes and evidence of payment 43 thereof submitted to the Borrowers by the Administrative Agent shall be prima facie evidence of the amount due from the Borrowers to the Lender Parties. (d) The Borrowers shall furnish to the Administrative Agent a certified copy of a receipt evidencing any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes made by the Borrowers as soon as such receipt becomes available, together with a certificate of an officer of Corel, which certificate indicates the amount of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, as the case may be, withheld by the Borrowers in respect of payments made hereunder. To the extent that the Borrowers request that a Lender provide or complete any form or declaration for, or make any statement to, a taxing authority, the Borrowers agree to advise and assist such Lender in properly completing such form or declaration or in making such statement. (e) Each Non-U.S. Lender lending to Corel Subsidiary shall, on or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement in the case of each Initial Lender or on or prior to the date of an assignment pursuant to which it becomes a Lender (other than an assignment requested by Corel pursuant to Section 2.21(a)), and from time to time thereafter as reasonably requested in writing by the Borrowers (but only so long thereafter as such Lender remains lawfully able to do so), provide each of the Administrative Agent and Corel with two original Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8BEN or W-8ECI or, in the case of a Lender that has provided a certificate to the Administrative Agent that it is not (i) a "bank" (as defined in Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code), (ii) a ten-percent shareholder (within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code) of Corel or (iii) a controlled foreign corporation related to Corel (within the meaning of Section 864(d)(4) of the Internal Revenue Code), Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, or any successor or other form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, certifying that such Lender is exempt from or entitled to a reduced rate of United States withholding tax on payments made by Corel Subsidiary pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or, in the case of a Lender that has certified that it is not a "bank" as described above, certifying that such Lender is a foreign corporation, partnership, estate or trust. (f) For any period with respect to which a Lender has failed to provide the Borrowers with the appropriate form, certificate or other document described in subsection (e) of this Section 2.20 (other than if such failure is due to a change in the Applicable Law, or in the interpretation or application thereof, occurring after the date on which a form, certificate or other document originally was required to be provided or if such form, certificate or other document otherwise is not required under subsection (e) of this Section 2.20), such Lender shall not be entitled to Additional Amounts under subsection (a) of this Section 2.20 or indemnification under subsection (c) of this Section 2.20 with respect to Indemnified Taxes imposed by the United States by reason of such failure; provided, however, that should a Lender become subject to Indemnified Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form, certificate or other document required hereunder, the Borrowers shall take such steps as such Lender shall reasonably request to assist such Lender in recovering such Indemnified Taxes. 44 (g) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement or obligation of the Borrowers hereunder, the obligations of the Borrowers under this Section 2.20 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Obligations. SECTION 2.21 Assignment of Commitments Under Certain Circumstances; Duty to Mitigate, (a) In the event (i) any Lender or the Issuing Bank delivers a certificate requesting compensation pursuant to Section 2.14, (ii) any Lender or the Issuing Bank delivers a notice described in Section 2.15, (iii) the Borrowers are required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or the Issuing Bank or any Governmental Authority on account of any Lender or the Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.20 or (iv) any Lender refuses to consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification of any Loan Document requested by the Borrowers that requires the consent of a greater percentage of the Lenders than the Required Lenders and such amendment, waiver or other modification is consented to by the Required Lenders, the Borrowers may, at their sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender or the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender or the Issuing Bank to transfer and assign, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement (or all of its interests, rights and obligations with respect to a Class of Loans or Commitments) to an assignee that shall assume such assigned obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (x) such assignment shall not conflict with any law, rule or regulation or order of any court or other Governmental Authority having jurisdiction, (y) the Borrowers shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (and, if a Revolving Credit Commitment is being assigned, of the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender), which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, and (z) the Borrowers or such assignee shall have paid to the affected Lender or the Issuing Bank in immediately available funds an amount equal to the sum of the principal of and interest accrued to the date of such payment on the outstanding Loans or L/C Disbursements of such Lender or the Issuing Bank, respectively, plus all Fees and other amounts accrued for the account of such Lender or the Issuing Bank hereunder (including any amounts under Sections 2.14 and 2.16); provided further that, if prior to any such transfer and assignment the circumstances or event that resulted in such Lender's or the Issuing Bank's claim for compensation under Section 2.14, notice under Section 2.15 or the amounts paid pursuant to Section 2.20, as the case may be, cease to cause such Lender or the Issuing Bank to suffer increased costs or reductions in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital, cease to have the consequences specified in Section 2.15 or cease to result in amounts being payable under Section 2.20, as the case may be (including as a result of any action taken by such Lender or the Issuing Bank pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section), or if such Lender or the Issuing Bank shall waive its right to claim further compensation under Section 2.14 in respect of such circumstances or event, shall withdraw its notice under Section 2.15 or shall waive its right to further payments under Section 2.20 in respect of such circumstances or event or shall consent to the proposed amendment, waiver, consent or other modification, as the case may be, then such Lender or the Issuing Bank shall not thereafter be required to make any such transfer and assignment hereunder. Each Lender hereby grants to the Administrative Agent an irrevocable power of attorney (which power is coupled with an interest) to execute and deliver, on behalf of such Lender as assignor, any Assignment and Acceptance necessary to effectuate any assignment of such Lender's interests hereunder in the circumstances contemplated by this paragraph. 45 (b) If (i) any Lender or the Issuing Bank shall request compensation under Section 2.14, (ii) any Lender or the Issuing Bank delivers a notice described in Section 2.15 or (iii) the Borrowers are required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or the Issuing Bank or any Governmental Authority on account of any Lender or the Issuing Bank, pursuant to Section 2.20, then such Lender or the Issuing Bank shall use reasonable efforts (which shall not require such Lender or the Issuing Bank to incur an unreimbursed loss or unreimbursed cost or expense or otherwise take any action inconsistent with its internal policies or legal or regulatory restrictions or suffer any disadvantage or burden deemed by it to be significant) (x) to file any certificate or document reasonably requested in writing by the Borrowers or (y) to assign its rights and delegate and transfer its obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if such filing or assignment would reduce its claims for compensation under Section 2.14, enable it to withdraw its notice pursuant to Section 2.15 or would reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.20, as the case may be, in the future. The Borrowers hereby agree to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender or the Issuing Bank in connection with any such filing or assignment, delegation and transfer. SECTION 2.22 Swingline Loans. (a) Swingline Commitment. Subject to the terms and conditions and relying upon the representations and warranties herein set forth, the Swingline Lender agrees to make loans to Corel at any time and from time to time on and after the Closing Date and until the earlier of the Revolving Maturity Date and the termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in (i) the aggregate principal amount of all Swingline Loans exceeding $5,000,000 in the aggregate or (ii) the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure, after giving effect to any Swingline Loan, exceeding the Total Revolving Credit Commitment. Each Swingline Loan shall be in a principal amount that is an integral multiple of $50,000. The Swingline Commitment may be terminated or reduced from time to time as provided herein. Within the foregoing limits, Corel may borrow, pay or prepay and reborrow Swingline Loans hereunder, subject to the terms, conditions and limitations set forth herein. (b) Swingline Loans. Corel shall notify the Swingline Lender by fax, or by telephone (promptly confirmed by fax), not later than 12:00 noon (Toronto time) on the day of a proposed Swingline Loan. Such notice (in the form of Exhibit C-2 hereto) shall be delivered on a Business Day, shall be irrevocable and shall refer to this Agreement and shall specify the requested date (which shall be a Business Day) and amount of such Swingline Loan and the wire transfer instructions for the account of Corel to which the proceeds of the Swingline Loan should be transferred. The Swingline Lender shall make each Swingline Loan by wire transfer to the account specified in such request. (c) Prepayment. Corel shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Swingline Loan, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, upon giving written or fax notice (or telephone notice promptly confirmed by written, or fax notice) to the Swingline Lender before 12:00 noon (Toronto time) on the date of prepayment at the Swingline Lender's address for notices specified herein. 46 (d) Interest. Each Swingline Loan shall be an ABR Loan and, subject to the provisions of Section 2.07. shall bear interest as provided in Section 2.06(a). (e) Participations. The Swingline Lender may by written notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 noon (Toronto time) on any Business Day require the Revolving Credit Lenders to acquire participations on such Business Day in all or a portion of the Swingline Loans outstanding. Such notice shall specify the aggregate amount of Swingline Loans in which Revolving Credit Lenders will participate. The Administrative Agent will, promptly upon receipt of such notice, give notice to each Revolving Credit Lender, specifying in such notice such Lender's Pro Rata Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans. In furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Credit Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided above, to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Swingline Lender, such Revolving Credit Lender's Pro Rata Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans. Each Revolving Credit Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to this paragraph is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Revolving Credit Lender shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.02(c) with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.02(c) shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders) and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Swingline Lender the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall notify Corel of any participations in any Swingline Loan acquired pursuant to this paragraph and thereafter payments in respect of such Swingline Loan shall be made to the Administrative Agent and not to the Swingline Lender. Any amounts received by the Swingline Lender from Corel (or other party on behalf of Corel) in respect of a Swingline Loan after receipt by the Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to the Administrative Agent; any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph and to the Swingline Lender, as their interests may appear. The purchase of participations in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve Corel (or other party liable for obligations of Corel) of any default in the payment thereof. SECTION 2.23 Letters of Credit. (a) General. Corel may request the issuance of a Letter of Credit for the account of either Borrower or for the account of any of their Subsidiaries (in which case the Borrowers and such Subsidiary shall be co-applicants with respect to such Letter of Credit), in the form of Exhibit C-3 hereto, at any time and from time to time while the L/C Commitment remains in effect; provided that the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue, extend or renew any Letter of Credit after the date that is 30 days prior to the Revolving Maturity Date. This Section shall not be construed to impose an obligation upon the Issuing Bank to issue any Letter of Credit that is inconsistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. 47 (b) Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension: Certain Conditions. In order to request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or to amend, renew or extend an existing Letter of Credit), Corel shall hand deliver or fax to the Issuing Bank and the Administrative 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, the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, 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 such Letter of Credit. 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 Borrowers shall be deemed to represent and warrant that, after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (i) the L/C Exposure shall not exceed $10,000,000 and (ii) the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure shall not exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitment. (c) Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at the close of business on the earlier of the date one year after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit and the date that is five Business Days prior to the Revolving Maturity Date, unless such Letter of Credit expires by its terms on an earlier date; provided, however, that a Letter of Credit may, upon the request of Corel, include a provision whereby such Letter of Credit shall be renewed automatically for additional consecutive periods of 12 months or less (but not beyond the date that is five Business Days prior to the Revolving Maturity Date) unless the Issuing Bank notifies the beneficiary thereof at least 30 days prior to the then-applicable expiration date that such Letter of Credit will not be renewed. (d) Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit and without any further action on the part of the Issuing Bank or the Lenders, the Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Revolving Credit Lender, and each such Lender hereby acquires from the Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender's Pro Rata Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit, effective upon the issuance of such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Credit Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank, such Lender's Pro Rata Percentage of each L/C Disbursement made by the Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the Borrowers (or, if applicable, another party pursuant to its obligations under any other Loan Document) forthwith on the date due as provided in paragraph (e) below. Each Revolving Credit 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 the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. (e) Reimbursement. If the Issuing Bank shall make any L/C Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Borrowers agree to reimburse such L/C 48 Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such L/C Disbursement not later than 12:00 noon, Toronto time, on the Business Day following the date that such L/C Disbursement is made; provided that (i) if notice of such L/C Disbursement is received by Corel later than 10:00 a.m., Toronto time, on the Business Day on which such L/C Disbursement is made, then such reimbursement shall not be required until the second Business Day following the date such L/C Disbursement is made and (ii) Corel may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.03 or 2.22 that such payment be financed with an ABR Revolving Borrowing or a Swingline Loan in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, Corel's obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Revolving Borrowing or Swingline Loan. If Corel fails to make such payment when due, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Revolving Credit Lender of the applicable L/C Disbursement, the payment then due from Corel in respect thereof and such Lender's Pro Rata Percentage thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each Revolving Credit Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent its Pro Rata Percentage of the payment then due from Corel, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.02 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.02 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Revolving Credit Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Credit Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Borrowers pursuant to this paragraph, including any interest accrued on such L/C Disbursements at the rate specified in Section 2.07, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Revolving Credit Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Bank, then to such Revolving Credit Lenders and the Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Revolving Credit Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Bank for any L/C Disbursement (other than the funding of ABR Revolving Loans or a Swingline Loan as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Borrowers of their obligation to reimburse such L/C Disbursement. (f) Obligations Absolute. Corel's obligations to reimburse L/C 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 any Loan Document, or any term or provision therein; (ii) any amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any of the provisions of any Letter of Credit or any Loan Document; (iii) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right that Corel, any other party guaranteeing, or otherwise obligated with, Corel, any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof or any other person may at any time have against the beneficiary under any Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank, the Administrative 49 Agent or any Lender or any other person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other related or unrelated agreement or transaction; (iv) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; (v) payment by the Issuing Bank 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; and (vi) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind of the Issuing Bank, any Lender, the Administrative Agent or any other person or 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 the Borrower's obligations hereunder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is expressly understood and agreed that the absolute and unconditional obligation of Corel hereunder to reimburse L/C Disbursements will not be excused by the gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct of the Issuing Bank. The foregoing shall not, however, be construed to excuse the Issuing Bank from liability to Corel to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by Corel to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by Corel that are caused by the Issuing Bank's gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct in determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. It is understood that the Issuing Bank may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary and, in making any payment under any Letter of Credit (i) the Issuing Bank's exclusive reliance on the documents presented to it under such Letter of Credit as to any and all matters set forth therein, including reliance on the amount of any draft presented under such Letter of Credit, whether or not the amount due to the beneficiary thereunder equals the amount of such draft and whether or not any document presented pursuant to such Letter of Credit proves to be insufficient in any respect, if such document on its face appears to be in order, and whether or not any other statement or any other document presented pursuant to such Letter of Credit proves to be forged or invalid or any statement therein proves to be inaccurate or untrue in any respect whatsoever and (ii) any noncompliance in any immaterial respect of the documents presented under such Letter of Credit with the terms thereof shall, in each case, be deemed not to constitute gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct of the Issuing Bank. (g) Disbursement Procedures. The Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. The Issuing Bank shall as promptly as possible give telephonic notification, confirmed by fax, to the Administrative Agent and Corel of such demand for payment and whether the Issuing Bank has made or will make an L/C Disbursement thereunder; provided that (i) the Issuing Bank shall use reasonable efforts to notify Corel prior to making payment on a standby letter of credit and (ii) any failure to give 50 or delay in giving any notice referred to in this paragraph shall not relieve the Borrowers of their obligation to reimburse the Issuing Bank and the Revolving Credit Lenders with respect to any such L/C Disbursement. (h) Interim Interest. If the Issuing Bank shall make any L/C Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, then, unless Corel shall reimburse such L/C Disbursement in full on such date, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest for the account of the Issuing Bank, for each day from and including the date of such L/C Disbursement, to but excluding the earlier of the date of payment by Corel or the date on which such L/C Disbursement is refinanced with a Revolving Loan or a Swingline Loan pursuant to paragraph (e) above, at the rate per annum that would apply to such amount if such amount were an ABR Revolving Loan. (i) Resignation or Removal of the Issuing Bank. The Issuing Bank may resign at any time by giving 45 days' prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and Corel, and may be removed at any time by Corel by notice to the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the Issuing Bank hereunder by a Lender that shall agree to serve as successor Issuing Bank (which Lender shall be an Eligible Canadian Lender which has an Affiliate in the United States), such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the interests, rights and obligations of the retiring Issuing Bank and the retiring Issuing Bank shall be discharged from its obligations to issue additional Letters of Credit hereunder. At the time such removal or resignation shall become effective, Corel shall pay all unpaid fees accrued pursuant to clause (ii) of Section 2.05(c). The acceptance of any appointment as the Issuing Bank hereunder by a successor Lender shall be evidenced by an agreement entered into by such successor, in a form satisfactory to Corel and the Administrative Agent, and, from and after the effective date of such agreement, (i) such successor Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of the previous Issuing Bank under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (ii) references herein and in the other Loan Documents to the term "ISSUING BANK" shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the resignation or removal of the Issuing Bank hereunder, the retiring Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such resignation or removal, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit. (j) Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, Corel shall, on the Business Day they receive notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, Revolving Credit Lenders holding participations in outstanding Letters of Credit representing greater than 50% of the aggregate undrawn amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit) thereof and of the amount to be deposited, deposit in an account with the Collateral Agent (the "L/C COLLATERAL ACCOUNT"), for the benefit of the Revolving Credit Lenders, an amount in cash equal to the L/C Exposure as of such date. Such deposit shall be held by the Collateral Agent as collateral for the payment and 51 performance of the Obligations with respect to Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit. The Collateral Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits in Permitted Investments, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Collateral Agent, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall (i) automatically be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the Issuing Bank for L/C Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed, (ii) be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of Corel for the L/C Exposure at such time and (iii) if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Revolving Credit Lenders holding participations in outstanding Letters of Credit representing greater than 50% of the aggregate undrawn amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit), be applied to satisfy the Obligations with respect to Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit. If Corel is required to provide cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, the amount remaining on deposit in the account as described above (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to Corel within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived. (k) Additional Issuing Banks. Corel may, at any time and from time to time with the consent of the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) and such Lender, designate one or more additional Lenders to act as an issuing bank under the terms of this Agreement; provided that any such Lender shall be an Eligible Canadian Lender which has an Affiliate in the United States. Any Lender designated as an issuing bank pursuant to this paragraph shall be deemed to be an "Issuing Bank" (in addition to being a Lender) in respect of Letters of Credit issued or to be issued by such Lender, and, with respect to such Letters of Credit, such term shall thereafter apply to the other Issuing Bank and such Lender. SECTION 2.24 Mandatory Triggered Prepayments. On the occurrence of any of the following events (a "TRIGGERING EVENT"), the Borrowers shall make an offer to the Lenders to prepay any Loans then outstanding as follows: (a) Not later than the fifth Business Day following any receipt of Net Cash Proceeds in respect of any Asset Sale (other than Net Cash Proceeds from such Asset Sale which during any fiscal year of Corel, when combined with all other Net Cash Proceeds from Assets Sales in such fiscal year, do not exceed $1,000,000 in the aggregate), the Borrowers shall offer to apply 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds received with respect thereto to prepay outstanding Loans in accordance with paragraph (b) of this Section 2.24. (b) Prepayments of outstanding Loans offered under this Section 2.24 shall be first applied, subject to the provisions of paragraph (d) below, pro rata against the remaining scheduled installments of principal due in respect of the Term Loans under Section 2.11 (including amounts due on the Term Maturity Date), second, applied against any Revolving Credit Loans and Swingline Loans then outstanding, third, 52 maintained as cash collateral in respect of any Letters of Credit then outstanding, as provided in Section 2.23(i). and fourth, credited to Corel's Account. (c) The Borrowers shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, at the time of each prepayment required under this Section, (i) a certificate signed by a Financial Officer of Corel setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation of the amount of such prepayment and (ii) to the extent practicable, at least five Business Days prior written notice of such prepayment. All prepayments of Borrowings under this Section shall be subject to Section 2.16, but otherwise shall be without premium or penalty, and shall be accompanied by accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be prepaid to but excluding the date of payment. (d) Any Term Lender may elect (upon such election, such Term Lender being a "DECLINING LENDER"), by notice to the Administrative Agent in writing (or by telecopy or telephone promptly confirmed in writing) by 12:00 p.m. (Toronto time), at least four Business Days prior to any prepayment of Term Loans required to be made by the Borrowers for the account of such Declining Lender pursuant to Section 2.24(a), not to accept the portion of such prepayment to which such Declining Lender would be entitled and upon such election, such declined amount shall be offered instead, at least three Business Days prior to any prepayment, to those Term Lenders other than the Declining Lenders (such Term Lenders being the "ACCEPTING LENDERS") to prepay their Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.24(a). Any Accepting Lender may elect, by notice to the Administrative Agent in writing (or by telecopy or telephone promptly confirmed in writing) by 12:00 p.m. (Toronto time), at least two Business Days prior to any such prepayment, not to accept the portion of such declined amount offered to it. On the date of such prepayment (the "PREPAYMENT DATE"), (i) an amount equal to that portion of the prepayment required to be offered to the Accepting Lenders shall be offered by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Borrowers to prepay Term Loans owing to such Accepting Lenders on a pro rata basis as provided above, and (ii) any remaining portion of such prepayment after such offer and any such prepayment has been made shall be first, applied against any Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans then outstanding, second, maintained as cash collateral in respect of any Letters of Credit then outstanding, as provided under Section 2.23(i), and third, credited to Corel's Account. SECTION 2.25 Relationship Between the Borrowers, (a) Administrative Borrower. Corel Subsidiary hereby appoints Corel, and Corel shall act under this Agreement, as the agent, attorney-in-fact and legal representative of Corel Subsidiary for all purposes, including requesting Loans and receiving account statements and other notices and communications to the Borrowers (or any of them) from the Administrative Agent or any Lender. The Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders may rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, on any Notice of Borrowing, Notice of Continuation/Conversion, request for a Letter of Credit, disbursement instruction, report, information or any other notice or communication made or given by Corel, whether in its own name, as Borrowers' agent, on behalf of Corel Subsidiary or on behalf of the Borrowers, and neither the Administrative Agent nor any Issuing Bank nor any Lender shall have any obligation to make any inquiry or request any confirmation from or on behalf of any other Borrower as to the binding effect on it of any such notice, request, instruction, 53 report, information, other notice or communications, nor shall the character of the Borrowers' obligations hereunder be affected, provided that the provisions of this Section 2.25(a) shall not be construed so as to preclude any Borrower from taking actions permitted to be taken by a "Borrower" hereunder. (b) Guarantee. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guaranties, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, the due and punctual payment in full of all Obligations of the other Borrower when the same shall become due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise (including amounts that would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. Section 362(a)). (c) Obligations Absolute. The obligations of each Borrower under this Section 2.25 are irrevocable, absolute, independent and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance which constitutes a legal or equitable discharge of a guarantor or surety other than payment in full of the Obligations. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, each Borrower agrees that: (i) its obligation under this Section 2.25 with respect to the obligations of the other Borrower is a guaranty of payment when due and not of collectibility; (ii) the Administrative Agent and any Lender may enforce this obligation upon the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder notwithstanding the existence of any dispute between the other Borrower and the Administrative Agent or any Lender with respect to the existence of such Event of Default; (iii) the obligations of each Borrower hereunder are independent of each of the obligations of the other Borrower under the Loan Documents and the obligations of any other Person and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against each Borrower whether or not any action is brought against the other Borrower or any other Person and whether or not the other Borrower or any other Person is joined in any such action or actions; and (iv) a payment of a portion, but not all, of the Obligations by any Borrower shall in no way limit, affect, modify or abridge the liability of such or any other Borrower for any portion of the Obligations that has not been paid.

The provisions of Sections 2.14, 2.16, 2.20 and 9.05 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the expiration of the term of this Agreement, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Loans or L/C Disbursements, the expiration of the Commitments, the expiration of any Letter of Credit, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of 90 this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank. SECTION 9.03 Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto. SECTION 9.04 Successors and Assigns. (a) Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the permitted successors and assigns of such party; and all covenants, promises and agreements by or on behalf of the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Lenders that are contained in this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns. (b) Each Lender may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans at the time owing to it), with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and, in the case of any assignment of a Revolving Credit Commitment, the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender (in each case, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided, however, that (i) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate or Related Fund of a Lender, (A) unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrowers must also give their prior written consent to such assignment (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, it being understood that the consent of the Borrowers shall not be necessary in connection with any assignment during the primary syndication of the Loans to any person previously agreed to by the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers), and (B) the amount of the Commitments and/or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is recorded by the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $1,000,000 (or, if less, the entire remaining amount of such Lender's Commitment and/or Loans of the relevant Class); provided that such minimum assignment amount shall be aggregated for two or more simultaneous assignments by or to two or more Related Funds, (ii) the parties to each such assignment shall (A) electronically execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance via an electronic settlement system acceptable to the Administrative Agent (which initially shall be ClearPar, LLC) or (B) if no such system shall then be specified by the Administrative Agent, manually execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance and (iii) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire and all applicable tax forms. Upon acceptance and recording pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, (A) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement and (B) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (other than existing obligations resulting from its gross negligence, 91 fraud or willful misconduct while a Lender) (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14,2.16, 2.20 and 9.05). (c) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the assigning Lender thereunder and the assignee thereunder shall be deemed to confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) such assigning Lender warrants that it is the legal and beneficial owner of the interest being assigned thereby free and clear of any adverse claim and that its Term Loan Commitment and Revolving Credit Commitment, and the outstanding balances of its Term Loans and Revolving Loans, in each case without giving effect to assignments thereof which have not become effective, are as set forth in such Assignment and Acceptance, (ii) except as set forth in clause (i) above, such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement, or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto, or the financial condition of the Borrowers or any Subsidiary or the performance or observance by the Borrowers or any Subsidiary of any of its obligations under this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (iii) such assignee represents and warrants that it is legally authorized to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of the most recent financial statements referred to in Section 3.05(a) or delivered pursuant to Section 5.04 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (v) such assignee will independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, such assigning Lender or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement; (vi) such assignee appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, respectively, by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vii) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender. (d) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at one of 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 Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans 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 Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders may treat each person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a 92 Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers, the Issuing Bank, the Collateral Agent and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. (e) Upon its receipt of, and consent to, a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, an Administrative Questionnaire completed in respect of the assignee (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section, if applicable, the written consent of the Administrative Agent and, if required, the Borrowers, the Swingline Lender and/or the Issuing Bank to such assignment and any applicable tax forms, the Administrative Agent shall (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance and (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph. (f) Each Lender may without the consent of the Borrowers, the Swingline Lender, the Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent sell participations to one or more banks or other entities in all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided, however, that (i) such Lender's obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) the participating banks or other entities shall be entitled to the benefit of the cost protection provisions contained in Sections 2.14, 2.16 and 2.20 to the same extent as if they were Lenders (but, with respect to any particular participant, to no greater extent than the Lender that sold the participation to such participant), (iv) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, and such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce the obligations of the Borrowers relating to the Loans or L/C Disbursements and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement (other than amendments, modifications or waivers decreasing any fees payable hereunder or the amount of principal of or the rate at which interest is payable on the Loans, extending any scheduled principal payment date or date fixed for the payment of interest on the Loans, or releasing all or substantially all of the Subsidiary Guarantors or all or substantially all of the Collateral) and (v) the amount of the Commitments and/or Loans subject to such participation shall not be less than $1,000,000 (or, if less, the entire remaining amount of such Lender's Commitments and/or Loans of the relevant Class); provided, that such minimum participation amount shall be aggregated for two or more simultaneous participations by or to two or more Related Funds. (g) Any Lender or participant may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section, subject to Section 9.16(b), disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant any information relating to the Borrowers furnished to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrowers; provided that, prior to any such disclosure of information 93 designated by the Borrowers as confidential, each such assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant shall execute an agreement whereby such assignee or participant shall agree (subject to customary exceptions) to preserve the confidentiality of such confidential information on terms no less restrictive than those applicable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 9.16. (h) Any Lender may at any time assign all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure extensions of credit to such Lender or in support of obligations owed by such Lender; provided that no such assignment shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. (i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a "GRANTING LENDER") may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an "SPC"), identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers, the option to provide to the Borrowers all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to the Borrowers pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to make any Loan and (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement (all liability for which shall remain with the Granting Lender). In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior indebtedness of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings under the laws of the United States of America or any State thereof. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans to the Granting Lender or to any financial institutions (consented to by the Borrowers and Administrative Agent) providing liquidity and/or credit support to or for the account of such SPC to support the funding or maintenance of Loans and (ii) subject to Section 9.16(b), disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC. (j) The Borrowers shall not assign or delegate any of its rights or duties hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and each Lender, and any attempted assignment without such consent shall be null and void. 94 (k) In the event that any Revolving Credit Lender shall become a Defaulting Lender, then each Issuing Bank shall have the right, but not the obligation, at its own expense, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, to replace (or to request the Borrowers to use their reasonable efforts to replace) such Lender with an assignee, and such Lender hereby agrees to transfer and assign without recourse all its interests, rights and obligations in respect of its Revolving Credit Commitment to such assignee; provided, however, that (i) no such assignment shall conflict with any law, rule and regulation or order of any Governmental Authority and (ii) the Issuing Banks or such assignee, as the case may be, shall pay to such Lender in immediately available funds on the date of such assignment the principal of and interest accrued to the date of payment on the Loans made by such Lender hereunder and all other amounts accrued for such Lender's account or owed to it hereunder. SECTION 9.05 Expenses; Indemnity. (a) The Borrowers agree to pay all reasonable, actual, third party out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Arrangers, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender in connection with the syndication of the Credit Facilities and the preparation and administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or in connection with any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions hereby or thereby contemplated shall be consummated) or incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of Skadden, Arps, Slate Meagher & Flom LLP and Osler, Hoskin & Harcourt LLP, as counsel for the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, and, in connection with any such enforcement or protection, the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any other counsel for the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender. (b) The Borrowers agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, each Lender, the Issuing Bank and each Related Party of any of the foregoing persons (each such person being called an "INDEMNITEE") against, and to hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including reasonable counsel fees, charges and disbursements, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in any way connected with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated thereby, the performance by the parties thereto of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions and the other transactions contemplated thereby, (ii) the use of the proceeds of the Loans or issuance of Letters of Credit, (iii) any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether or not any Indemnitee is a party thereto, or (iv) any actual or alleged presence or Release of Hazardous Materials on any property currently or formerly owned or operated by a Borrower or any Subsidiary, or any Environmental Liability or Cost related in any way to the Borrowers or the Subsidiaries; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or 95 related expenses are finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. (c) To the extent that the Loan Parties fail to pay any amount required to be paid by them to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, such Lender's pro rata share (determined, in the manner provided below, as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender in its capacity as such. For purposes hereof, a Lender's "pro rata share" shall be determined based upon its share of the sum of the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure, outstanding Term Loans and unused Commitments at the time. (d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrowers shall not assert, and hereby waive, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof. (e) The provisions of this Section shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the expiration of the term of this Agreement, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Loans, the expiration of the Commitments, the expiration of any Letter of Credit, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable on written demand therefor. SECTION 9.06 Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, except to the extent prohibited by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender to or for the credit or the account of the Borrowers against any of and all the obligations of the Borrowers now or hereafter existing under this Agreement and other Loan Documents held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or such other Loan Document and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have. SECTION 9.07 Applicable Law. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. EACH LETTER OF CREDIT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND 96 SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OR RULES DESIGNATED IN SUCH LETTER OF CREDIT, OR IF NO SUCH LAWS OR RULES ARE DESIGNATED, THE UNIFORM CUSTOMS AND PRACTICE FOR DOCUMENTARY CREDITS MOST RECENTLY PUBLISHED AND IN EFFECT, ON THE DATE SUCH LETTER OF CREDIT WAS ISSUED, BY THE INTERNATIONAL CHAMBER OF COMMERCE (THE "UNIFORM CUSTOMS") AND, AS TO MATTERS NOT GOVERNED BY THE UNIFORM CUSTOMS, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. SECTION 9.08 Waivers; Amendment, (a) No failure or delay of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank in exercising any power or right hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or consent to any departure by the Borrowers or any other Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice or demand on the Borrowers in any case shall entitle the Borrowers to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. (b) Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrowers and the Required Lenders; provided, however, that (i) no such agreement shall (A) decrease the principal amount of, or extend the maturity of or any scheduled principal payment date or date for the payment of any interest on any Loan or any date for reimbursement of an L/C Disbursement, or waive or excuse any such payment or any part thereof, or decrease the rate of interest on any Loan or L/C Disbursement, without the prior written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (B) increase or extend the Commitment or decrease or extend the date for payment of any Fees of any Lender without the prior written consent of such Lender, (C) amend or modify the pro rata requirements of Section 2.17, the provisions of Section 9.04(j) or the provisions of this Section or release all or substantially all of the Subsidiary Guarantors or all or substantially all of the Collateral, without the prior written consent of each Lender, (D) change the provisions of any Loan Document in a manner that by its terms materially adversely affects the rights in respect of payments due to Lenders holding Loans of one Class differently from the rights of Lenders holding Loans of any other Class without the prior written consent of Lenders holding a majority in interest of the outstanding Loans and unused Commitments of each adversely affected Class, (E) modify the protections afforded to an SPC pursuant to the provisions of Section 9.04(i) without the written consent of such SPC, or (F) reduce the percentage contained in the definition of the term "Required Lenders" without the prior written consent of each Lender (it being understood that with the consent of the Required Lenders, additional extensions of credit pursuant to this Agreement may be included in the determination of the Required Lenders on substantially the same basis as the Term Loan Commitments 97 and Revolving Credit Commitments on the date hereof) and (ii) any waiver, amendment or other modification referred to in subclauses (i)(A) or (B) above with respect to the Loans or Commitments of any Lender may be made with the prior written consent of such Lender; provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender. SECTION 9.09 Interest Act (Canada); Criminal Rate of Interest; Nominal Rate of Interest. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, solely to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction finally determines that the calculation or determination of interest payable by any Loan Party that is an entity organized under the laws of Canada or any province of Canada (a "CANADIAN LOAN PARTY") in respect of the Obligations pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be governed by the laws of any province of Canada or the federal laws of Canada: (a) Whenever any interest or fee payable by any Canadian Loan Party is calculated using a rate based on a year of 360 days, each rate determined pursuant to such calculation is, for the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada), equivalent to such rate multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which such rate is to be ascertained and divided by 360. (b) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, in no event shall any Loan Document require the payment or permit the collection of interest or other amounts in an amount or at a rate in excess of the amount or rate that is permitted by law or in an amount or at a rate that would result in the receipt by the Lenders or the Administrative Agent of interest at a criminal rate, as the terms "interest" and "criminal rate" are defined under the Criminal Code (Canada). Where more than one such law is applicable to any Loan Party, such Loan Party shall not be obliged to make payment in an amount or at a rate higher than the lowest amount or rate permitted by such laws. If from any circumstances whatever, fulfillment of any provision of any Loan Document shall involve transcending the limit of validity prescribed by any Applicable Law for the collection or charging of interest, the obligation to be fulfilled shall be reduced to the limit of such validity, and if from any such circumstances the Administrative Agent or the Lenders shall ever receive anything of value as interest or deemed interest under any Loan Document in an amount that would exceed the highest lawful rate of interest permitted by any Applicable Law, such amount that would be excessive interest shall be applied to the reduction of the principal amount of the relevant Commitment, and not to the payment of interest, or if such excessive interest exceeds the unpaid principal balance of the relevant Commitment, the amount exceeding the unpaid balance shall be refunded to the applicable Loan Party. In determining whether or not the interest paid or payable under any specified contingency exceeds the highest lawful rate, the Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall, to the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law (a) characterize any non-principal payment as an expense, fee or premium rather than as interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, (c) amortize, prorate, allocate and spread 98 the total amount of interest throughout the term of such indebtedness so that interest thereon does not exceed the maximum amount permitted by Applicable Law, or (d) allocate interest between portions of such indebtedness to the end that no such portion shall bear interest at a rate greater than that permitted by Applicable Law. For the purposes of this Agreement and each other Loan Document to which a Canadian Loan Party is a party, the effective annual rate of interest payable by such Canadian Loan Party shall be determined in accordance with generally accepted actuarial practices and principles over the term of the Obligations, on the basis of annual compounding for the lawfully permitted rate of interest and, in the event of a dispute, a certificate of a Fellow of the Canadian Institute of Actuaries appointed by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Canadian Loan Party will be conclusive for the purpose of such determination in the absence of evidence to the contrary. (c) All calculations of interest payable by any Canadian Loan Party under this Agreement or any other Loan Document are to be made on the basis of the nominal interest rate described herein and therein and not on the basis of effective yearly rates or on any other basis which gives effect to the principle of deemed reinvestment of interest. The parties acknowledge that there is a material difference between the stated nominal interest rates and the effective yearly rates of interest and that they are capable of making the calculations required to determine such effective yearly rates of interest. SECTION 9.10 Judgment Currency. The specification under this Agreement of Dollars is of the essence. Each Loan Party's obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents to make payments in Dollars shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender or recovery pursuant to any judgment expressed in or converted into any currency other than Dollars, except to the extent that such tender or recovery results in the effective receipt by the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank of the full amount of Dollars expressed to be payable: to the Lender Parties or the Issuing Bank under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. If, for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert into or from any currency other than Dollars (such other currency being hereinafter referred to as the "JUDGMENT CURRENCY") an amount due in Dollars, the rate of exchange used shall be that at which the Lender Parties or the Issuing Bank could, in accordance with normal banking procedures, purchase Dollars with the Judgment Currency on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given. The obligation of each Loan Party in respect of any such sum due from it to the Lender Parties or the Issuing Bank hereunder shall, notwithstanding any judgment in such Judgment Currency, be discharged only to the extent that, on the Business Day immediately following the date on which the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank receives any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank may, in accordance with normal banking procedures, purchase Dollars with the Judgment Currency. If the Dollars so purchased are less than the sum originally due to the Lender Parties or the Issuing Bank in Dollars, each Lender Party agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Lender Parties and the Issuing Bank against such loss, and if the Dollars so purchased exceed the sum originally due to the Lender Parties or the Issuing Bank in Dollars, the Administrative Agent (and the Lender Parties) and the Issuing Bank, as applicable, agree to remit to such Loan Party such excess. 99 SECTION 9.1l Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Administrative Agent Fee Letter and the other Loan Documents (and those provisions of the Commitment Letter and Fee Letter that expressly by their terms survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement) constitute the entire contract between the parties relative to the subject matter hereof. Any other previous agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof is superseded by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Nothing in this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents, expressed or implied, is intended to confer upon any person (other than the parties hereto and thereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereunder (including any Affiliate of the Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders) any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. SECTION 9.12 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS. EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, AS APPLICABLE, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION. SECTION 9.13 Severability. In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and therein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby (it being understood that the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not in and of itself affect the validity of such provision in any other jurisdiction).
